Terry, Thanks so much for the information that you all sent. i Am away from my computer with my file I will check when I get home but it seems to me that Timothy Padgett who was the son of Frances and Ruth Diskins Padgett was born in the last quarter of the 1700's maybe about 1760 I am working from memory hear and this is not a line I have researched extensively so I may correct this later on.. From what I have seen there are three marriages of John Diskins. To be honest the marraige to Frances McCarty may not fit but i always thought that time wise John the Justice was in the right time frame to be the grandfather of Timothy Padgett. I will research whati have and re-post to the list later. Thanks for a great start though. Susan
