    1. [YOUNGER] Ann Younger
    2. Judy - who is Ann Younger married to Richard Price? I don't know - I never heard of a Richard Price connected to Youngers. My John Price was married to Ann Younger, daughter of Alexander Younger, who came in to Essex County VA as an indentured servant. Edward Rouzee registered his indenture June 1699. The paper seems to have been sold several times and rerecorded by each new owner. I spent years on the Lees, big bucks, lots of travel, and lost half my grey cells in the process and still didn't solve the problem with them that I was working. Light Horse Harry Lee was born Jan 1756. He was a student at Princeton at least 1770 through 1773. Elizabeth (Lee) Younger (wife of Joshua), according to Younger researchers, died by Sept 1777 after having had four children so we can calculate that she was born no later than 1759 when Harry was three years old!!! By the way, Light Horse Harry's 2nd wife and Robert E. Lee's mother was Anne. She is never referred to as Mary in Edmund Jennings Lee's work, nor in Robert E. Lee's biography of his father, nor in Cazenove Gardner Lee's work, nor in Paul Nagel's work, nor in Edward C. Mead's work. She was named for her mother, Anne Butler Moore Carter. I feel certain that had there been a close relationship of the Hills of Middlesex and Essex Co and the Carters of "Shirley" that someone would have claimed the connection given genealogists' propensity to try to tie to well known families. When William Montague, husband of Jane (Price) died 1754, he left his land called the Island in Middlesex Co. to his son John and the land in Essex County he had purchased from Robert Price to his son, Peter. Montague's Island is located in "A Place in Time" as in the river near Perrot's Creek and settled first by Peter Montague who died 1659. According to William Lindsay Hopkins: "Middlesex County, Virginia Wills and Inventories" there is record in Middlesex Co of a suit brought by Jane's children after William died. She had remarried and her husband seems to have run up some debts perhaps using some of the Montague assets as collateral. Pat Finnell
