To Tom Joyce: Your list of ancestors is a real gift to us, and I thank you. I don't want to seem nit-picking, but may we have the source(s) for the data? I--and others, I'm sure--would be grateful for this information. Harice Seeds

Has anyone been in contact with Donna Ertler lately? Her E-mail keeps getting returned to me. If anyone knows her correct address would you please tell me. Thank you, Allen

Rene, Please accept our sympathy for the loss of two family members. Know that all are in our prayers. Peggy

I'm going to need to unsubscribe for a few days. In the span of 2 hours we have had two family members suffer heart attacks. One if in CCU and we'll be burying the other. Please say a prayer for our cousin, Norman and for our cousin Betty Ruth who will spend the first night without her husband in 51 years. Rene

Shouldn't we always note differences between records and the source for each one if we are thorough genealogists? Of course I wish I had known that when I began all of this!

In a recent post, there was a mention of some confusion about birthdates of an individual. For what it's worth, I've been researching Quakers in Hinshaw and Heiss for several years and have discovered that birthdates for an individual oftentimes varied from meeting to meeting. My solution has been to stick with the birthdate recorded in the earliest meeting where that person could be found. DJ

Hello Vestal Cousins, Checkout my new homepage and tell me what you think. http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/j/o/y/Thomas-Joyce/index.html ---TOM

Hello Cousins, Please checkout my new homepage and tell me what you think. http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/j/o/y/Thomas-Joyce/index.html ---TOM

Allen, My birth date for William is a guesstimate. He or a person with his same name received land (the exact same land with same description as when he sells it in 1748) in Orange County in 1734. I just figure he couldn't have been much younger than 20 when this happened so I subtracted to arrive at the date. Many folks say he was born in 1720, but I feel that was too young to have gotten land and to be on his own-he would have only been fourteen if he was born in 1720 like so many say-- and no other Jay appears to receive land in Virginia at that time period in Orange County or elsewhere in Virginia. This William had a son William born about 1744 or 1745, I forget which year exactly and a son named James b. 1744/1745 (I have the years of these two mixed up), a son named Joseph b. abt 1750, a son named John b. 1752 m. Elizabeth (Betty) Pugh, 3 daughters: Lydia, Rachel, and Mary and a last son, David b. abt. 1763/65.

Are you sure you didn't mean 1743 for the date? William was born about 1714 and Mary abt. 1725. Everything I have researched says they married in Frederick County, VA in 1743.
