I have gone back as far as Richard Massey and wife Winney and have 7 children listed, but I know nothing about Richard except he purchased land in Patrick Co. Va. in 1795 and 1798 and that the seven children were born in Patrick County. I would like to find a marriage or death date for Richard Massey and the maiden name Winney.I am slowly working backwards on all the descendants. My grandmother was Blissie F. Massie (Massey), d/o of Thomas Kelly Massie s/oRichard Sparrell Massie (Massey) s/o John Massey, s/o Richard and Winney Massey. Any help you can give will be appreciated and if I run into a block along the way, may give you another holler. Margaret Butler -margarat@cwv.net

Hi Becky! How are you? I saw your post and just wanted to say I have some Reynolds from Patrick County. Could you tell me more about your Reynolds? Thanks. Beth

Hi - My name is Becky Martin Christiansen, and I live in Kernersville, NC -originally from Martinsville, VA. I am searching Corn, Hughes, Martin, Reynolds, Stovall, Taliaferro (Toliver), Stoker and Wright.

I am researching the surname BURGE in Patrick Co and in neighboring Stokes Co, NC. Known family connections include COX, NEW, GRAY. Collateral lines include JOYCE and TATUM. Marv Burge

In the 1850 census of Patrick County, one Martha Pack, age 4, was in the household of Woody Burge (my great grandfather). I've no idea who she was, and when Woody moved his family to MO in 1856, Martha didn't go along. Have you come across a Burge-Pack connection? Also, do you know of a Burge-Mize connection? There were some land transactions between the families in 1769 in Mecklenburg Co, VA. Marv Burge
