Here is all I have on Morris Roberts. There were two or more Morris Roberts besides this one in the 1700s. I would guess he was born about 1750. 1. Morris Roberts died in 1811 in Louisa County, Virginia. Morris Roberts had the following children: +2 i. Sarah Roberts (born in 1770). +3 ii. Mary Roberts. died in Scott County, Virginia 1825. Morris Roberts and Elizabeth had the following children: 4 i. Richard Roberts. 5 ii. Frances Roberts. 6 iii. Agness Roberts. +7 iv. Jerremiah Roberts. 2. Sarah Roberts was born in 1770. She died before 1796. She was married to William Roe Bellomy (son of John Bellomy and Susan Roe ) on October 22, 1792 in Louisa County, Virginia. 7. Jerremiah Roberts. **************Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape. http://body.aol.com/fitness/winter-exercise?NCID=aolcmp00300000002489

Does anyone know the first wife of Morris Roberts ca 1750 – 1811? She married William Roe Bellomy 1768-1833. Louisa County marriage records clearly show William R. Bellomy marriage to Sarah Robards, daughter of Morris Robards, 22 Oct 1792. The wills of William R. Bellomy and Morris Roberts and deed of gift by Mary Roberts plus their marriage bond all of record in Louisa County show beyond all doubt that Sarah Roberts marriage information was miscopied into the official record as Sarah Robards. Morris left will as follows: Louisa County, VA Will Book 6, p366 In the name of God Amen I Morris Roberts be in my proper Senses but knowing that it is ordained that all men is certain to dei (sic) I Bequeath my soul to God hoping he will receive it, and my body to the earth desireing my Executors to see that it decently Entert and as for what good and chattels God almighty has pleased to bless me with I do give as followth.

Any clue of Morris Roberts being the grandfather of Hugh Kerr "HK" Roberts of the Rutherford (or parent county) Co. SC? HK was born in 1820 or 1822 and was orphaned by January of 1831 with five or six siblings. There is a Morris Roberts family in that area, but I can see no apparent connection. HK's father is 'said to be' John Roberts, who died mining gold at Kings Mtn/Kings Cr. The question I am trying to answer is who was HK's father for sure and does he connect to the Morris Roberts line.

Anyone posting a query about a person or a family should give some DATES, even approximate ones. Louisa Co. has been around since 1742. Approximate dates are OK. How will a researcher know whether a family is from Scotland? Few of the books define national origin, except when there is reference to a *merchant of Glasgow* which I frequently find in colonial Virginia records.

I have alot of Janice Abercrombie books and I can highly recommend them. The same with Rosalie Davis. Patronage and Poverty, is a hard read but well researched. The marriage books are always good to have. The book by John C. Bell has good records but the way it is indexed it is hard to use.

It is an excellent book for socio-ecconomic-political background on Louisa County. I relied on it heavily for culture and ecconomic understanding of the area. The book is easy to obtain, but if your local library doesn't have a copy, I had no trouble borrowing it through interlibrary loan. Pattie Cooke's book has a wonderful collection of photographs. It has so many individuals pictured from the Hall murder trial that I specifically recommend it as a companion book to mine. I have not looked at the other books. I have read other of Janice Ambercrombie's works. You can bet her research is top notch.
