Hi! Several of us cousins have been searching for Peatross information. Our known ancestor Matthew Thom(p)son married a Sarah Wyatt of Caroline Co., Va. It appears that shortly after their marriage they moved to Louisa Co., Va. There is a great deal of information on this Wyatt family on the Internet, but we know little of Matthew Thompson. Due to naming patterns, we feel there is a good chance that Matthew's father was named John Thompson. So, we have searched for all the John Thompsons of the mid 1750's in Caroline and surrounding counties. The closest possibility we have found is a John Thompson who married an Ann Peatross, whose parents were Matthew and Amy Catlett Peatross. They had children John, Matthew, and two daughters in Caroline Co. Information seems hard to come by in Caroline County. Any help would be much appreciated. Ken.

Ken, Im sorry for the delay in responding to your email. I came across the Devisee of Job Spearman & Thomas Peatross by accident, Job was married to Elizabeth ???. We believe that Job was born abt 1670-1675 & dies in late 1741 or later. What Im trying to find out is if Elizabeth is a Peatross. Any information is greatly appreciated. Derrell Oakley Teat
