Could the Elisabeth Winn here b. 1703 by my missing Elizabeth? The dates don't match exactly, but they're close. My Elizabeth, b. abt 1717, m1 ___ Richards, m2 abt 1739 Thomas Fortson. Locations most often mentioned were Caroline and Spotsylvania Cos, VA. I have no documentation of this pair except that they were the parents of Thomas Fortson, Jr, b. 5/1/1742 in Caroline Co. which would have made her 39. Not much to go on, but I've been looking for this Winn connection for a long time. Anybody have any thoughts or info on this Elizabeth.
