This Henry Anderson married Prudence Stratton of Henrico County, Virginia in about 1706. In 1717 this Henry Anderson purchased 500 acres in Henrico County on the North side of Appomattox River. This Henry Anderson was Justice of the Peace for Henrico County in 1719 and Sheriff in 1729. The person to be tested must be a male with an Anderson surname. The person to be tested must be able to show a documented direct line to the above Henry Anderson. Our Anderson line has a paper trail to the above Henry Anderson. We would like to confirm that connection with a DNA match. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Paul K.

James, thanks for your response. Prudence Stratton is probably a descendant of the Edward Stratton family you note. I found a reference on the Edward Stratton / Anderson families in the Virginia Magazine of History, Vol. 32V, pages 387-388. I have not researched the Stratton family other than on the surface through LDS. However, research on the Henry Anderson family I think identifies that family with the Henrico Strattons. Henry and Prudence had children named; John, Edward, Henry, Martha, Judith, Ann and Francis. This information was obtained from will abstracts for Henry and his son John. The names strongly suggest the family used the naming pattern system of the time which would have involved the given names of Edward Stratton and his wife Martha Shippey. Any help identifying a descendant of Henry Anderson will be very much appreciated. We have DNA matches that take us back to the 1780s.
