Hi Barbara, Since Minor is not in my line, I've never really reearched him, and can't help with your question. But if the Stith's are involved, the Winn/Wynne would be from the family of Col. Robert Wynne of Chas. City & Pr. Gro. Co. I don't think Minor has ever been linked to that line at all. There are many publ. about Col. Robert's large family. Good luck.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/FgWBAEB/692 Message Board Post: I'm a descendent of the Minor Winn who was married to Elizabeth Withers. I've only recently made this connection and have started looking back into Minor Winn's ancestry. I know that there are a lot of people with "Minor Winn" in their family tree, but I have noticed that because the name repeats so often in the line, there are a lot of conflicting dates or dates that don't make sense (a Minor Winn born in 1672 with a son who was born in 1685). Rather than rely only on what other people have uploaded to the internet or gotten from other people's family trees, I'd like to document the line with marriage licenses, census records, deeds, wills, etc. In addition to being more "concrete", it would be nice to be able to pass these documents on to future generations. I'm willing to request all these things from the various courthouses/libraries, etc, but I'd like to do it all at once, if possible. I'm wondering if there's anyone out there who's already done the legwork and would be willing to either share with me copies of the documents, or tell me what documents are located where, so that I can request them from the various places. I'd like to take the line back as far as I can, so any documents would be appreciated.

Thanks, Miles, for the input - I need all the help I can get! Now the question has changed - do you show any Winn/Wynn familes in Prince George Co VA of the time frame to have fathered (or grandfathered) a daughter (or granddaughter) born cir 1723-1728 (I have seen her birth listed as 1723 and I have seen it listed as 1728. Since she named one of her sons Stith I feel that it's likely she was related in some way to the Stith family. Do you have anybody listed that might be a lead - possible parents, grandparents, siblings, cousins, uncles, whatevers, family pets (well I guess you can omit the family pets - that would be asking for a bit much!).

The BROWSE address below is for searching by month. What is a archive for a e-mail list? It is a storage for each and every e-mail that has ever arrived in our E-mail storage. If you wrote a e-mail it will be in there, that can be good or bad. I believe last year in the Wynne Genealogy Society e-mail list, a girl put her credit card number in her e-mail. She was wanted to buy the book that Lynn Larsen [Art] and I co-authored [Data], "Dr. Thomas Wynne's Legacy". She had to change her credit car, notify the bank. Just in case you don't know why she had to do that, because anyone could had taken the cc number and used it.. That was a heck of day for her and I to get it cleaned up. p.s. Rootsweb will not take it off the list, they say they can but after 7 hours of working with them, they can't take it off. No matter what they say. Archives. You can search the archives for a specific message or browse them all.

So sorry - wrong email reply! Hal

Barbara, Thank you so much for the information you have assembled thus far. It is interesting that you mention his first name, because it is never the same in any of the census records I have found. He was known as "North" Wilkins; sometimes he is found as North, Norford, Norflet, Noah (found this on one census), Norfolk, etc. The marriage record actually has the name Norford, but Mary Jane's name is misspelled also, Jane "Noles", rather than "Knowles". So, I'm not terribly sure that that is of importance. It's just interesting that there is such a variety of names to describe this person. Have you looked into the Boggon connection I mentioned in an earlier email - the neighbors with the son's name of Norflet or Norfleet? See if that provides any clues. I think they can be found on the census from Anson County. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, Hal

Dear Cuz's Welcome a new member who is researching the Snead/Wynn family, her name is Evelyn Hundley Kuserk, ekuserk@aol.com. This is a snippet of her e-mail to me, see if you can help her out! >From Evelyn: I have recently returned from a trip to Brunswick County, VA where I was researching the Snead family (my paternal grandmother's family). I have just begun investigating this line so have not progressed very far. I found that my grandmother's (Lillie Snead Hundley) mother was Eva Wynn Snead. Eva was the daughter of Virgil O. Wynn and his wife, Mary. She was born in 1875 in Brunswick County, VA. and married Samuel A. Snead in Dinwiddie County in 1892. It is very exciting to come upon your webpage and I will be exploring it in detail. I also plan on joining your listserv. Cuz Becky ttg-inc@comcast.net http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ttg13/
