    1. Re: [VAWESTMO-L] Kentish Families > U.S.
    2. Greetings Bill, St. Leger shows up in my line via Wyatt>Starke>White>Penney. I'm really not sure of how accurate it is since I found it at the LDS library. These were from Hanover Co. Va. My Overall ancestor, Nathaniel or William or both were supposed to have come from Kent. Their brother Bishop John Overall is supposed to be buried in St. Paul's Cathedral. I know the Overall's were here before 1650. Would you have a suggestion as to how I might go about finding more information. Many thanks, Laura Jones Louisville, Ky.

    1. [VAWESTMO-L] Kentish Families > U.S.
    2. Penny Mander
    3. To: VAWESTMO-L@rootsweb.com Re: Kentish Families > U.S. Hi Everyone, ah'm a bit of a greenhorn, and ah've been settin awhile (chewin baccy. .) awatchin as these here dang messages keep on lightin up my computee screen. Y'all seem like nice folks, and seems to me that I could do a lot wus then set awhile and chew some fat. Tush - I can't keep that up - 'cos I'm a Cockney ain't I - born in the shadow of the Tower of London: Close enough to Bow Bells that my family used them as an alarm clock. . Having got over my silly spell (for a time at least), I should like to say "Hi" to everyone - and to tell you why I have dropped in to your pages. I should at this point state that I have recently posted this message on the pages of the Culpepper Group, and that I will be placing this (or similar) on other Group pages. The reason for the numerous postings is that my research extends over large areas of both Virginia and Maryland - so at this point in time I am unable to pin myself down to any particular state or county. My name is Bill Castillion-Mander. I'm a historian, aged (that's it - just aged. .). Put it this way - I'm over the age of consent - blooming miles over. . Home for me is in Gravesend, in the county of Kent, in England. The town is probably best known in the U.S. as being the burial place of Pocahontas. Having (just about. .) completed the researches into my ancestors, I should like to tie up some loose ends regarding members of my extended family who migrated to your side of the pond at quite early dates. In the main the people I want to research will be uncles, or cousins, of mine - removed by a number of generations of course. It is quite surprising just how little information has trickled back to the U.K. regarding these settlers and their families. Even when the various family members did quite - in some cases becoming notable - little is known about them over here. In many cases these people went west - and simply disappeared. Hopefully, it is possible to rectify this lack of information, and where better to ask than the places they migrated to ? As an indication of how little is know back here regarding former Kentish families - a couple of examples: The Digges family, and the Randolph family. I know the Randolph family were linked with William and Mary College - and that Edward Digges became Governor of Virginia - but few over here would be aware of the importance of these people, nor the roles that they played in the New Colonies (or Old Dominion. .). This despite the fact that these families originated just a few short miles away from where I now write. . Many (though not all) of the families I am interested in have strong Kentish connections - and most of them are related to each other in one way or another. Because of these complex relationships, it's difficult to know where to start. With which member of which family - and at what date ? Probably best to start with just a few families - just to see what sort of action it evokes. The following then is a small sample of the families I am interested in. All have roots in Kent - though many also had links outside of this county - in particular to London. All are also earlyish - pre-1700 at the latest. As follows - and it should be noted that the spellings can vary to a considerable degree. . Culpepper. Digges. Randolph. Guildford. Roper. St. Leger. Scott. Neville. Since all of the above families occur as my ancestors, it follows that I have information relating to them. With some of the families the info I have is pretty basic - for others I have large amounts. Whatever - if there are those on the group who need info on any of the families to whom I connect, then I should be happy to help out where I can. Thanks for taking time to read this - and best wishes to all. Cheers, Bill Castillion-Mander. At home in Gravesend - on the banks of the Thames in the original county (sorry - KINGDOM) of Kent. . (Too right - we Kentish Folk can flag-wave with the best of them. . .).

    1. [VAWESTMO-L] Re: Nicholas family
    2. Whoops! Just found out my Ursula Nicholas was her married name, not maiden. So I'm looking for a Nicholas who married a woman named Ursula and who must have died by 1698 in Westmoreland... She then married Robert Lovell Jr. and bore him several children, so I'm guessing she was fairly young still when Mr. Nicholas died... Any help appreciated! Cyndi IBSSG

    3. Dear Fellow List Members: Thomas C. Mozingo and Rebecca Jones were married in Richmond County in 1813 according to marriage records on file. My ggg grandfather Charles Thomas Mozingo was born in 1815 and sometime between 1820 and 30 they moved to Westmoreland County. In the 1850 census of Westmoreland County Thomas was listed as 68 years old and in 1860 he is no longer listed.

    3. Would appreciate information from anyone that would have knowledge of a place called Bell's CrossRoads supposidly located in Louisa County, VA. This is where my father grew up as a child with a foster family by the name of MOSS. I am interested particularly in the name of the schools that were in the area during the 1930's and possibly locating microfiche records for these schools. Thank you very much. Bill

    2. Does anybody have information on a Mullen Family from Westmorland county? A Flora Jones married a mullen abt 1924. They have 4 children: Ben (Benjamin) Mullen Jack Margeret Grace (married to an Al ?) I know the info is skimpy, but thought I would try. Any help is appreciated. If you know of this Mullen family please get in touch. Take care and thank you, Eleanor

    1. [VAWESTMO-L] Thomas Mozingo or Mazingo
    2. Bill Mozingo
    3. Looking for information on Thomas Mozingo b 1788 d ? who is possibly my ggg grandfather. I think he was born in Richmond County and moved from there sometime between 1820 and 1830 according to the Census information. His son Charles (my great great grandfather)was born in 1814 or 15 probably in Richmond and later married in Allegheny County in 1836 to Rebecca Hoilman. Birth records or wills from Richmond or Westermoreland would probably be of tremendous help. They seem to at least be the first Mozingo's in Westmoreland County and the name is super rare that it should not be too difficult given these time frames. Any and all information or direction would be appreciated. Thank you very much. Bill Mozingo

    3. Looking for more information to confirm my speculation in the form of Marriage Records or Wills on the following family who I suspect are my ggg grandparents: 1850 Census: (living in Westmoreland County, Cople Parish) Mozingo, Thomas, age 62 Rebecca, age 52 Elen, age 29 William, age 20 Pierce, age 22 I think they had at least two more children: 1) Mozingo, Malinda, age 25 (living in Westmoreland County, Washington Parish) 2) Charles Thomas Mozingo, age 35 (my gg grandfather) (living in Rockbridge County in 1850) Rebecca, age 38 Charles W., age 13 Simon, age 11 George W., age 9 Polly A., age 6 Rachel E., age 5 William H., age 1 (My great grandfather) Charles Thomas Mozingo disappears from records after 1860 and Rebecca dies in 1873 and her gravestone shows that her husband was William Mozingo (who I suspect was Charles' brother). They must have married after 1870 because she was single head of household in the 1870 census. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. A Sincere Thanks, Bill Mozingo, mozingo@home.com

I'm not researching any of those names. If it is the vestry book-I saw it on microfilm from the LDS library. Other than that, I don't remember mentioning any books in my queries, but some of them were so long ago that I can't remember much about them. Sorry. Judy
