Sam; I can't put your John Webb with my John Webb. I don't know if he ever left Northampton County, North Carolina. I put my query out this week to see what I could stir up. I'm still at a loss to know what happened to John Webb born about 1714 in Nasemond Virginia and his children, John , Jesse, Ethelred, Mary, and Martha. His son Elisha is my 5th g-grandfather I know that John,(1714) left a will when he died in Northampton County. You can see more about that family by looking at my home page at: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/w/e/b/Ottice-G-Webb/index.html Keep searching Sam. Someday maybe we can all find our CORRECT roots. All of you Webb searchers, keep putting YOUR John Webb out there.
