Hello Bonnie, I don't have anything to help you, unfortunately.  I wonder though if we may have some connection though distant. I am descended from Elizabeth Lamb of Rockingham County who was the daughter of Zachariah Lamb.  I wonder if Zachariah and my Elizabeth may have been related to your Elizabeth.  I believe my Elizabeth Lamb may have been born in the mid-1820s.  My Elizabeth Lamb married James M. Andrews (born abt. 1824 in the area that would become Warren County).  I found them in the Page County census in 1850 and 1860 in the Naked Creek area.  My Elizabeth died in Page County about 1860+ and the cause of death is listed as cancer. I wonder if the "Andrew Andes" may have been related to my James Andrews.  I have always been unable to connect my James Andrews to the other Andrews families in Virginia - he is my biggest brick wall. I hope to stay in touch with you and will share anything that I find.
