    3. Posted on: Pittsylvania Co. Va Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Pittsylvania/342 Surname: Mitchell, Philpott, Reynolds ------------------------- There are Two James Mitchell's in the 1782 Pittsylvania Co Tax List. James A. Mitchell (d. 1795) married 1779 Sarah Warren Philpott. They had at least one child Elizabeth Michell (d. 1859) who married Hugh Reynolds 1801. I am not aware of any other marriages of this James A. Mitchell. Linda

    2. Sherry Kaseberg

    3. Posted on: Pittsylvania Co. Va Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Pittsylvania/340 Surname: Payne, Parks ------------------------- All I can add to the William Parks and CAtherine Payne story is that she was called Caty and they had at least three children: John, Reuben and Peyton. The 1830 Census of KY shows a number of Parks men, two in Lincoln County. The History of Pittsylvania County VA by Clement, 1976, on p 172 reports that Samuel Parks was a wagon conductor in 1781, and on page 287 that John Parks was an early JP in 1783, same time period as Reuben Payne and Robert Payne. The 1790 census shows William Parks, 3 whites, 1 black in Pittsylvnia County, VA.

    1. [VAPITTSY-L] Shelton Question
    2. Linda Lewis

    3. William and Mary College Historical Quarterly, Vol. 20, # 2, P. 143 has "David" Shelton being the father of Millicent Shelton in 1777 on a marriage record. Vol 6, No. 4, p. 220-221 says that her father was "Daniel" Shelton ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/va/pittsylvania/vitals/marriages/marr10.txt Is anyone on this list researching that name? This is a classic case that we must check original sources and use only publications as hints. Discrepencies are even in 100-year-old articles in highly-respected journals. Linda

    1. Re: [VAPITTSY-L] VA-NC Piedmont Genealogical Society

    3. Thanks to all who answered my query about the VA-NC Piedmont Genealogical Society web page, expecially Dick. I opened the Virginia Genealogical Society web site with no problem. Like Dick I could not open the VA-NC Piedmont GS web site, but thru the VGS web site I found one for the city of Danville (www.ci.danville.va.us/) than answers many questions I have seen on this forum. They have a map locating the courthouse. The VGS web site contains many interesting links. Thanks again to all, Elmer
