    1. Re: [WEST-L] Re: Robert West
    2. Hope this helps. This is information I have taken from DAR and "West Family Register" by Letta Brock Stone and Buckingham Co., Va records & etc. Sorry I have not put down all the dates and etc as I stopped on this line as it was a connection but not my direct lines. My WEST's are in Buckingham Co., Va. and a "burned county" so records are hard to come by. Might give you some leads though, hopefully. Marlene Descendants of Robert West Generation No. 1 1.
