    1. [VAROCKIN] Roadcap/Monday Marriage
    2. I am interested in comparing notes with anyone who knows anything about the following family group. My interest is mainly in Elizabeth's child John Roadcap by an Unknown Father. Does anyone know John's father ? Descendants of Elizabeth Roadcap Generation No. 1 1. ELIZABETH4 ROADCAP (PEACHY3, EMANUEL2, PETER1) was born Abt. 1842 in Brocks Gap, Rockingham, Virginia, and died Unknown. She met (1) UNKNOWN. She married (2) HENRY MONDAY January 20, 1869 in Stonewall, Rockingham County, Virginia. He was born Abt. 1830 in Virginia, and died Unknown. Notes for ELIZABETH ROADCAP: Elizabeth appears at age 8 in the 1850 Rockingham County, Virginia census. She is living at age 27 in the household of her parents in 1870. She is listed as "Elizabeth Monday," but her husband Henry is not living with them at the time in 1870. Elizabeth appears at age 35 with her husband Henry, who is 15 years her senior in the 1880 census. Her occupation is given as "keeping house." Notes for HENRY MONDAY: Henry is listed at age 50 in the 1880 Rockingham County, Virginia census. His occupation is given as "farm laborer." Henry and his family are living right next door to his father-in-law Peachy Roadcap in the Stonewall District at the time of the 1880 census. Child of ELIZABETH ROADCAP and UNKNOWN is: i. JOHN5 ROADCAP, b. Abt. 1863, Stonewall, Rockingham County, Virginia. Notes for JOHN ROADCAP: John is listed at age 7 living with his mother, Elizabeth in the household of his grandparents in the 1870 Rockingham County, Virginia census. He may have been illegitimate. He is listed in the 1880 census as the step-son of Henry Monday and Elizabeth. There is a John Roadcap who died in 1950 at the age of 82 years buried in the Mundy-Roadcap Cemetery in Brown's Gap, Virginia. His wife, Elizabeth Roadcap is also buried there. Elizabeth died in 1948 at the age of 78 years according to her tombstone. Could this be John Roadcap, son of Elizabeth Roadcap and Unknown Father ?? Children of ELIZABETH ROADCAP and HENRY MONDAY are: ii. THOMAS5 MONDAY, b. Abt. 1870; d. Unknown. Notes for THOMAS MONDAY: Thomas is listed at age 10 in the 1880 Rockingham County, Virginia census. The census indicates that he could not read or write. iii. MARY E. MONDAY, b. Abt. 1874; d. Unknown. Notes for MARY E. MONDAY: Mary is listed at age 6 in the 1880 Rockingham County, Virginia census. iv. GEORGE MONDAY, b. July 1879; d. Unknown. Notes for GEORGE MONDAY: George is listed at 11 months in the 1880 Rockingham County, Virginia census. His birth date is given as July 1880 in the census, although at 11 months of age, his birth date should be July 1879.
