John & Cheryl: Thanks for taking the time to do the lookup for me. Columbus' father was William Keith, Jr. son of William and Delilah (Ring)Keith of Russell Co., VA. According to census and marriage records, William Keith, Jr. was married to a woman named Millie/Milea/Amelia. I would love to hear from anyone else researching this Keith family. I have my Keith research posted at <http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Pointe/7430>. Columbus was married to Martha Louemma Baker, daughter of Cornelius "Keel" and Rebecca (Gilliam) Baker. Keel Baker was a son of Samuel Baker and Malinda Estep and Rebecca was a daughter of John Gilliam and Martha Elliott. I would also love to hear from anyone else researching these lines as well. Take care, Martha Angelfire for your free web-based e-mail. http://www.angelfire.com
