Wilma, the 1809 Halifax County VA Order Book 8, p42 had to be directed at another Armistead. My gg grandfather was born in 1811. The 1841 court order could have been my gg grandfather. Doesn't make sense, unless two Armistead's handled the case. I only have 3 Armistead's and one William Armistead in my files and they are born 1811 or after. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wilma C.
