Please, stop using the subject line roll call, instead use names, dates and locations, one per family, a list of 6 or 8 surnames does very little good Sandy in Florida [Sandra Wells Griffith] Maybe I will catch up with my mail when I retire, in 2010, <grin>

I just posted: "He took inventories, along with James Bagby and George Owen in 1768 for my ggggg grandfather John Hyde Saunders Sr." I shouldn't attempt to do these things this late at night. I should have mentioned that John Hyde Saunders, Sr., was the father of Peter Hyde Saunders, progenitor of at least one group of Franklin/Pittsylvania/Henry Co group of Saunders, Judge Fleming Saunders being the most visible.... Which makes me ask if any of you out there are researching them. Supposedly John Hyde Saunders Sr.,'s wife was a FLEMING, and supposedly it's "in the deeds" probably in Goochland records. Not only did Peter Hyde name a son Fleming, but another brother, Samuel Hyde Saunders, named a son Tarleton (also a Fleming name). FYI, I descend from John Hyde Saunders Jr., who m. Rachel Bentley, d/o Samuel Bentley, d. 1795 Amelia Co. and Mary Weldon (probably...and like the Fleming connection we are dealing with a son named Peter Efford Bentley and one named William Weldon Bentley...Peter Efford's daughter Sarah having married Samuel Weldon in late 1600s...no proof, etc, just a couple of declarative statements in Wm & Mary Quarterly..aaarrrgh). The offer for John Hyde Saunders, Sr.'s will and inventory stands. As they are covered under copyright I can't post them here, but can forward them in a separate email attachment. Best Regards, Janet (Baugh) Hunter

I believe that this week someone posted Minter as a surname on either the Franklin or Henry Co lists. I just thought I'd mention that in the course of organizing my Saunders information..and yes that would be relatives of you Peter Hyde>Fleming Saunders folks in Franklin Co..so believing in the gang theory of migration as Ido I mention that I've come across an Anthony Minter in Cumberland and Powhatan Co VA, late He took inventories, along with James Bagby and George Owen in 1768 for my ggggg grandfather John Hyde Saunders Sr. and his first cousin John Johnson (son of Daniel Johnson who married Mary Saunders, sister of John Hyde Saunders' father John Saunders). These two characters' wills and inventories, etc. all seem to be processed at the same time leading me to think they got themselves into some kind of joint trouble at the same time. Both had young children. Also not only Johnson and Saunders were involved in the wills, but Bartholomew Stovall, Jr. was involved with both. (and he too has cousins in Franklin & Henry Co)...John Hyde Saunders Sr.'s father John Saunders took as second wife, after Jane Hyde, Anne Burton Stovall, widow of Bartholomew Stovall Sr. I've always wondered how these step-cousins got along. Seems pretty good. FYI, I have abstracts for both the John Johnson and Jno Hyde Saunders wills and inventories 1768 from a fine new TLC Genealogy publication in 2000. Then the 1815 tax list for Powhatan Co VA shows the estate of Anthony Minter in Jefferson, Powhatan Co VA, which was the Saunders (and Baugh) stronghold it appears. FYI, Linda Starr....These Johnsons now????? I've known about this for three years, but never really thought about it until I saw their wills and inventories side by side..

By any chance do you think the name might ever have been spelled WRAY? I looked through published abstracts of Franklin Co.Will Bk 1, 1786-1812, and saw no RAY but a bunch of WRAY, incl. will of Moses WRAY 1802, proved 1802. Two of his 9 or 10 sons were James and William. Also mentioned " my well beloved Tabitha Wright". She would not have been your Miss Tabby. Let me know if you want more details.
