His will mentioned a wife, Havariller, and nine children. His daughter Lucy Wood, born about 1770 in Orange Co., VA. married a James White on November 26, 1787 in Orange Co., VA. I believe he was born about 1748 in Hanover Co. VA. If anyone has access to a Will Book of that time I would appreciate a copy of James' will and any information on the above four people. There were other White families in Orange Co. at this time and I wonder if Lucy married one of those White's and not a White from Hanover Co.

I hope this is not considered "off topic" I have noticed the FOUSHEE surname on this list and thought the those seekers might find this of interest: GARNER, John Foushee, married Nancy WHITTLE. Father & Grandfather of John Foushee GARNER were (not sure at the moment which was father or G father Thomas who wed Elizabeth FREEMAN. John GARNER who wed Susannah KEENE This is all from memory but in the 1700's the GARNERs were in Stafford County just East of Culpepper County. Anyone interested: go to http://www.familysearch.org into the top "search" box type Mary Garner and into the bottom one type Nathan Farmer As I recall go down to about the sixth or seventh result and you will find info as to Mary GARNER's ancestors. You will see spelling variations such as FONCHEE. Anyway, John Fouchee GARNER was in the revolution. Mary was a daughter of John who wed the WHITTLE. I am distantly related to Nathan FARMER, probably he was my GGG Uncle, tho a cousin claims he was my GGGG Grandfather and that is how I know this little bit. Jim [email protected]

Let's all work together to compile a comprehenisve Foushee family document.

Josephine Foushee was the daughter of John Clagget Foushee & Mary Frances Caton of Culpeper. Josephine's siblings were: Rev. Nathan B. Foushee of Windsor, VA, Mrs. Laura V. Griffith of Washington, DC, Mrs. Granville White of Culpeper, VA, and Mrs. Fannie B. Manuel of Culpeper. Mary Frances Caton Foushee "...was laid to rest in the family cemetery at the home of B.F. Manuel, near Hudson's Mill." I have not found the Manuel Cemetery on the Scheel map of Culpeper, do you know where it is? Thanks again, Bob Miller
