    1. WALFORD or WOOLFORD ?

    3. concerning Roger WOOLFORD I, d 1701, of Somerset or Dorchester counties, Maryland, who came from England to Virginia, and then to Maryland... previously, my only info re dates of arrival in Virginia and Maryland was that he was in Virginia prior to 04 February 1663, which was the date of his immigration to Maryland (as well as that of his wife Mary, and his daughter Mary), as listed in the transcription of the Maryland land patent records. recently, I read the transcribed records of the Hungars Parish in Northampton County, Virginia for 1660-1661. There was listed his marriage: Roger Walford & Mary Denwood Mar. 1st ( 01 March 1661, I believe... the introduction said that the records were from 25 March 1660 to 25 March 1661) Is WALFORD a common alternate spelling of WOOLFORD ? Or is it more likely that there was an error in the entry in the Parish records, or in the transcription ? Should I be researching WALFORD as well as WOOLFORD in an effort to trace Roger back to England ? What other spellings should I be searching ? Thank you, Bob Doenges 7445 Fox Call Lane Warrenton, VA 20186 USA g.robert.doenges.jr@cpmx.saic.com
