    3. Hi Marla, Do you think these Orange Co Richards are related to the early Edward or Edmond Richards who married Elizabeth Stewart, dau. of old James Stewart of Henry/Franklin CO VA? Edward Richards was one of the earliest settlers on Chestnut Creek. And is this Ambrose Richards a Richards or Richardson? I have a Richard Richards who served in 1779 in Cpt. Daniel Carlin`s Militia, Henry CO VA. The BURRUS, HEAD and CAVE families moved to nearby Upper Surry CO NC. One Jacob BURRUS lived in Henry CO VA, see 1782 tax list, near the end.

    1. Examination of Headrights attached to land grants
    2. m.moore1
    3. http://eogn.typepad.com/eastmans_online_genealogy/2005/06/mosher_award_pr.html http://heirlines.com/ The following is an announcement from the Board for Certification of Genealogists: The Board for Certification of Genealogists Education Fund, a Massachusetts charitable trust, is pleased to announce that James W. Petty, CGRS, AG, has been awarded the 2005 Donald Mosher Award for Virginia research. Petty, a professional genealogist with a 35 year career in professional genealogy, is based in Salt Lake City, Utah. He is president of HEIRLINES Family History & Genealogy, Inc., and co-founder of Heritage Genealogy College. He holds the Certified Genealogical Record Specialist credential from BCG and the Accredited Genealogist credential from the International Commission for the Accreditation of Professional Genealogists (ICAPGen). He also has college degrees in genealogy and history. Among his research interests are 17th century Virginia subjects. The Mosher Award is a $500 grant to help fund research on colonial Virginia families. Topics may be a family genealogy, a study of immigrant origins, or publication of previously unpublished colonial Virginia records. Petty's project involves extracting all records of head rights in the extant county court minutes in early Virginia. He will then compare the resulting lists with those already published in Cavaliers and Pioneers: Abstracts of Virginia Land Patents and Grants by Nell Marion Nugent, a standard published reference for Virginia research that includes over 80,000 headright certificates issued between 1623 and 1776. Headrights were land grants issued by the colonial government to Virginians based on the number of individuals brought to the colony. In his preliminary work, Petty has found that in almost every county, more than 80 percent of the entries differ from comparable entries in the land patents as published in Cavaliers and Pioneers, and in some cases the differences are significant. He has also found that the minute books show records from an earlier date than the certificates and as many as 50 percent of the minute book entries do not appear in the grants. The work will help descendants of the early settlers establish a date of arrival in Virginia. Already in progress, it has a target completion date of June, 2006. Merrill Mosher, CG, of Coos Bay, Oregon established the Donald Mosher Memorial Award in 2001 in memory of her husband of thirty-two years. The competitive award is given to a researcher submitting a Virginia family genealogy, research paper on a Virginia immigrant, or an outline and plan for making previously unpublished Virginia records available. The Board for Certification of Genealogists Education Fund, a charitable trust which supports genealogical education, administers the award. Beth A. Stahr, CGRS, president of the Board for Certification of Genealogists® and trustee of the BCG Education Fund, joined Mrs. Mosher in presenting the award during the BCG luncheon on 3 June 2005 at the National Genealogical Society Conference in Nashville, Tennessee. More information on BCG and the BCG Education Fund is available at www.bcgcertification.org. As part of his application for the grant, Petty explained that his work to date revealed that headright lists attached to land grants were the last record in the chain of records, and the earlier records---including the county certificates he is studying---may have preceded the land grant by three to thirty years. The number of county entries missing on the colony records means that historical estimates of colonial population based on Nugent's lists might be doubled. Petty has also determined that lists on the land patents were often compilations of many different headright certificates, meaning it is likely that none of the people on any given patent list even knew each other, much less came to America on the same ship. "The consequence of this study are so drastic as to completely change how headright records in colonial Virginia should be viewed by researchers," Petty continued. "Many of the hopes of researchers based on the misconceptions of the past will be dashed. But learning correct principles about these colonial Virginia records will allow us to discover new viewpoints about these early sources, and open new possibilities about finding ancestors and their origins."

    1. Joel Flora/Unknown Starkey
    2. I am trying to verify one of the marriages of Joel Flora (b. Abt. 1836 in Franklin Co., VA, d. 22 Jul 1911 in Nebraska). There seems to have been three even though I cannot find any information on the third to an unknown Starkey. His first marriage was to Phoebe Jamison (b. 15 Jan 1842 in Franklin Co., VA, d. 27 Mar 1877). She was the daughter of Samuel Jamison and Sarah Webster. To that marriage were born five children: 1. Sarah Elizabeth Flora (born abt 1863 in Franklin; married to John W. Fralin, b. abt 1853) 2. Mary Frances Flora (born abt. 1864 in Franklin) 3. Lewis B. Flora (b. 12 Jun 1871 in Franklin Co., VA, d. 14 May 1926 in Rocky Ford, Otero Co., Colorado) 4. Elisa Flora (b. 1873) 5. Samuel Henry Flora (b. 1876 in Franklin Co., VA, d. 11 May 1961 in Stanislaus Co., CA) His second marriage was to Lucy Webster (born abt. 1843 in Franklin Co., VA, d. 11 Feb 1899 in Rockford, Gage Co., Nebraska). Her parents were John B. Webster and Elizabeth Akers. To that marriage were born three children: 1. Harriet S. Flora (born abt. 1879 in Franklin Co., VA) 2. John Joel Flora (b. 20 Dec 1880 in Franklin Co., VA, d. 1968 in Rocky Ford, Otero Co., Colorado) 3. James Franklin Flora (b. 18 Jan 1883 in Rocky Mount, Franklin Co., VA, d. 2 Mar 1964 in Rocky Ford, Otero Co., Colorado) The marriage to an Unknown Starkey keeps popping up, but I have no idea who she is and the marriage (if true) must have been before Joel married Phoebe or Lucy. Joel never married again after Lucy passed that I know of, but I could be wrong. I believe Joel Flora's parents were Joel Flora and Elizabeth Peters. Any information on this other marriage or the family would be appreciated.
