Va Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Orange/10605 Surname: Groom, Webb, Gatewood ------------------------- William Groom was listed as the brother of John Groom in Orange, in John's will of 1804. Major, Mildred Delaney and others were also listed as siblings, also some nephews and nieces. William married a Webb and I am not sure which Webb was her father. Ann Gatewood's will says "wife of Henry Gatewood of Spots, 5-10-1791. Exec Bond dated 2-7-1792. Wit. John Pierce, James Price. Ex. my brother Richard Webb & Jno Herndon Sr. Leg. husband Henry Gatewood; brother James Crittenden Webb and Elizabeth his wife and their children' kinsman Benj. Webb, son of James, Webb; kinswoman Mildred Delaney; Ann, dau of Rich C. Webb; Sarah Groome, dau of Wm Groom; Susanna Randolph; Ann and Benjamin, the dau and son of John Webb (page 1148. John Groom's will says in part: sister, Mary Atkins, brother William Groom,; niece Sally Wright, dau of Eliz.
