Va Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Orange/436 Surname: LIGHTFOOT, DARNALL, WEBSTER, HOLLIDAY ------------------------- Henry Taylor LIGHTFOOT was born in June 1776, in VA or NC. It is highly probable that he m. Martha DARNALL in Wake Co NC in 1800, was divorced by her for desertion in 1803, and then m. Nancy WEBSTER in Mercer Co KY in 1804. There were several LIGHTFOOT families already in central KY by 1802 when Henry Taylor LIGHTFOOT is first found on a tax list for Franklin Co KY in 1802-03. The earlier LIGHTFOOT settlers were from Culpeper, Madison and Orange Co VA. Does anyone know of early Orange Co LIGHTFOOTS who may have had younger sons who went to KY? Henry named his first sons by Nancy WEBSTER John William, Wilson T. and Elijah Holliday LIGHTFOOT. I have been unable to find a HOLLIDAY or WILSON connection. If, in fact, he is the same Henry who m. Martha DARNALL, he named his first son by her William Taylor LIGHTFOOT. Thank you, Cynthia Orth
