This has been cobbled together from a variety of sources as you'll see, not all equally reliable, but I think cumulatively it's pretty accurate. I have information on Richard Clough and Anne Poindexter's ancestry as well--the further back it goes, the more it's guesswork--if you're interested. 1 Husband Richard Clough1,2 Birth 1690 New Kent County, VA3 Birth 1698 New Kent County, VA1 Residence 1717 Hanover County, VA, St. Paul's Parish4 Residence 1728 Hanover County, VA4 Death 1751 Hanover County, VA1,2,5 Death 1754 New Kent County, VA Occupation Justice of the Peace (with James Overton), Hanover County, VA 17266 Occupation nominated by Gov.
