When John Booth was born on September 29, 1735, in Amelia, Virginia, his father, Thomas, was 30 and his mother, Elizabeth, was 20. He married Mary Smith and they had one daughter together. He then married Elizabeth Cobb in 1763 in Virginia. He died on December 7, 1807, at the age of 72.
John Booth was born 29 Sept 1735 in Amelia County, Virginia. He was the youngest of five sons of Thomas Sr. and was born on his father's plantation on Sweathouse Creek. Amelia County was created from Prince George and Brunswick Counties and was actually begun the same year John Booth was born. In 1757, in his early 20s, John married Mary Smith. Mary's sister Temperance married John's older brother Nathaniel.
It appears Mary Smith was born around 1730 in Lunenburg, Virginia to Richard Smith (b. 1695, m. 1711, d. 1759) and Agnes Cocke (b. 1691, m. 1711, d. 1773). Mary's parents had three sons and nine daughters and her mother, Agnes, was a daughter of Stephen Cocke and Martha (Batte) Bannister, granddaughter of Thomas Cocke, and great-granddaughter of Richard Cocke and his probable first wife, Temperance Baley. Temperance's mother, Cecily (my 11th great grandmother) had arrived in Jamestown on what was likely the 17th ship bringing in settlers. She and her family were give the title of "ancient planters."
Mary's father, Richard, owned a plantation on Spring Branch in the parish of Cumberland. In his will, which was proved in 1760, he left his daughter, Mary Booth "one silver spoon." Since Mary Smith had married John Booth just a few years earlier, it's likely she received any major gifts of land or belongings at that time.
John and Mary's children's names
Richard Cocke, my 10th great grandfather, was an original settler to the Colonies. He was born in Pickthorn, Shropshire, England around December 13, 1597 when he was baptized. He arrived in Virginia in 1627, obtained large grants of land, and settled at "Bremo," on James river, in Henrico county. He was lieutenantcolonel of his county, and was a member of the house of burgesses in 1632 from Weyanke, and in 1644 and 1654 from Henrico county. He owned three plantations named Curles, Bremo, and Malvern Hills. These totaled over 7,000 acres of land. The plantations that Richard Cocke had built would remain in the family for generations.
He died in 1665. When Richard Cocke wrote his last will and testament in 1665, he asked to be buried in his orchard near his first wife (Temperance). For more, were Richard, Thomas, Peter, John Jr., Stephen (my fifth great grandfather), Mary, Benjamin, and Agnes Clardy. Two sons, Richard and Peter, served in the Continental army during the Revolutionary War. During the Revolutionary War, John furnished the army's commissary twice with 1,025 pounds of beef, 16 diets(?), 12 pecks of corn and pasturage on the first occasion, and 325 pounds of beef on the second. After the Yorktown victory in 1781, those who furnished supplies registered (for compensation?) with their county court. John Booth is recorded in Bedford County Court Order Book Number 6 on page 341 for March 23, 1782 and page 347 on March 25, same year. I hav not confirmed it but a post by Richard Booth on 1 May 2000, states that John Booth meets the
requirements and has become a registered patriot ancestor by the Daughters of the American Revolution (D.A. R.) and the Sons of the American Revolution (S.A.R.) effective October 1993. Any adult descendent of John Booth can become a member of either the D.A.R. or S.A.R. by showing their lineage to him.
John died in his late 70's on 7 Dec 1807 in Franklin County, VA.
Mary likely died before John since she is not mentioned in his Will. | BOOTH John (I12302)

. Ann18 Clopton, of New Kent (Walter17, William16, William15, Walter14, William13, Richard12, William11, John10, William9, Thomas8, Walter7, William6, Walter5, William4, Walter3, William2, Guillaume1 Peche, Lord Of Cloptunna and Dalham) was born July 3, 1712 in New Kent County, Virginia10. She married Benjamin Bradley, of Charles City, son of Joseph Bradley, of Charles City County, Virginia. He was born 1708 in Charles City County, Virginia, and died 1768.
No proof has been found that Ann Clopton married anyone or had any children. The theory of a possible Bradley-Clopton connection has been carefully researched by Frank Bradley, the former Genealogical Specialist, New York Public Library. After extensive research on the Bradley Family, it is his opinion that a very strong case can be made supporting this marriage based on several points:
1. Walter Clopton (her father) was named guardian of Jesse, Susannah & Elizabeth Bradley; 2. Saint Peter's Parish Registry lists the children of Benjamin and Ann Bradley; 3. the similarity of given names of the children of Walter Clopton & Benjamin Bradley; 4. Bradleys married into the Clopton and Jarratt families; and, 5. The Rev. Devereux Jarratt (1733-1801) wrote "my uncle was the first who had that name (Devereux) in Virginia." The Rev. Devereux may have been named after Devereux Clopton, his "Clopton" Uncle, or he may have been speaking of Devereux Jarratt, his "Jarratt" uncle. See "Walking the Primrose Path," Volume I, for more on the Devereux family.
Children of Ann Clopton and Benjamin Bradley are:
14 i. James19 Bradley, of Possom Run.
+ 15 ii. Walter Bradley, of Long Bridge.
16 iii. Elizabeth Bradley.
17 iv. Rachel Bradley, born May 20, 173611.

General Notes:
This compilation of material owes a great deal to those Harrison family researchers, Lindsay
Britton in particular, who have shared their efforts to define the generations of this particular
Harrison Clan. This then is a collection encompassing fact, documentation, primary records,

THE HARRISON NAME
According to some sources, the name Harrison is of Danish extraction (Aryson), which is
indicated by the use of the syllable "son" as an ending for the name. This was a custom of the
Danes and names ending in "son" have been in constant use in England ever since the Danish
invasion. "Of all the ancient families of the Colony of Virginia that of Harrison, if not the oldest,
is one of the oldest. The name has been distinguished for patriotism, intelligence and moral
worth of those who have borne it." The traditional homes in England for the Harrisons are
Oxford, Northampton, Warwickshire and Worcestershire. In 1972, there were 111,950 adult

Harrisons in the United States - the 200 most numerous name. Referencing other sources
under Harrison Family, we find that Harrison can mean "Hunter of Hares."
The Harrison name is also found in Scotland. Harrison means son of Harry (from Henry
through the intermediate form Hanry). We know that Sir Laurence Harryson or Herryson, a
native of Scotland, had letters of denization in England 1497 (Bain,IV, 1623, 1629). James
Harryson, Scottish man, was author of An Exhortation to the Scottes to conforme themselfes
to the honorable, expedient, & godly Vnion betweene the two realmes of Englande & Scotland,
published in London, 1547. Magnus Harison in Gillisbrfek, parish of Lunnasting, 1613
(Shetland). Those from Fife would be a "Sept" (component branch family) of Clan MacDuff.
The Scotch records show that in the 1600 an Anglican English family settled in Bush Mills,
Dunluth Parish, County Antrim. Later, the records show that 6 Harrison families came to early
America from Ireland as "Scotch-Irish" - four from County Antrim 1 in 1744 settled o' the East
Fork of Cook's Creek, Augusta Co., Virginia; 1 in 1775 settled in Guilford Co., North Carolina; 1
in 1800 in Georges, Fayette Co., Pennsylvania; 1 in 1871 at the Mission Road Church, Johnson
Co., Ks. One Harrison Family or individual from County Down in 1778 settled in Hogan's
Creek, Caswell Co., N.C. 1 from County Armagh in 1811 settled on the Permision River, New
Madrid Co., Missouri. All of these settlers were Protestants.
Harrison is also found in Ireland, especially in Dublin and Counties Antrim and Down in Ulster.
Most are incomers from England in the 1600s, or from Scotland. The name is particularly
concentrated near Donaghcloney, Dromore Parish, County Down and they would be
Protestants. Some Gaelic Irish named "Harrihy," "(O)(Mac)Henry" or "Horohoe" have changed
their names to "Harrison," and they would be Catholic. Some of these Gaelic Irish families
trace their legendary genealogies back through the kings and heroes to the Milesian invaders
from Spain (1000-800 BC) who fought for the island with magical Tuatha De Danaan and the
firbolg (the Picts), and who before that were in Scythia, Greece and Egypt.
Supposedly, this William Harrison Senior was one of the first two Burgesses elected when
Prince George was formed in 1702
DISCLAIMER: Entries for the years 1658-1686 in the chronology offered below came largely
from the work of Beverly Fleet, with a few additions marked Nugent and Hopkins. Entries for
the period 1688-1713, came from the work of Dr. Weisiger, except an entry marked Nugent
(James E. Harrison booklet, Sources: Ayres, Fleet, Haun, Hopkins, Nugent, Weisiger).
There is no attempt to attach each of these entries to William Harrison Senior or to his father.
The entries are presented merely to provide information on those citizens named William
Harrison who occupied this area during this period. It is difficult, if not almost impossible, to
know whether there was another William Harrison in this area who cannot be clearly
identified! (PMH)

(Shetland). Those from Fife would be a "Sept" (component branch family) of Clan MacDuff.
The Scotch records show that in the 1600 an Anglican English family settled in Bush Mills,
Dunluth Parish, County Antrim. Later, the records show that 6 Harrison families came to early
America from Ireland as "Scotch-Irish" - four from County Antrim 1 in 1744 settled o' the East
Fork of Cook's Creek, Augusta Co., Virginia; 1 in 1775 settled in Guilford Co., North Carolina; 1
in 1800 in Georges, Fayette Co., Pennsylvania; 1 in 1871 at the Mission Road Church, Johnson
Co., Ks. One Harrison Family or individual from County Down in 1778 settled in Hogan's
Creek, Caswell Co., N.C. 1 from County Armagh in 1811 settled on the Permision River, New
Madrid Co., Missouri. All of these settlers were Protestants.
Harrison is also found in Ireland, especially in Dublin and Counties Antrim and Down in Ulster.
Most are incomers from England in the 1600s, or from Scotland. The name is particularly
concentrated near Donaghcloney, Dromore Parish, County Down and they would be
Protestants. Some Gaelic Irish named "Harrihy," "(O)(Mac)Henry" or "Horohoe" have changed
their names to "Harrison," and they would be Catholic. Some of these Gaelic Irish families
trace their legendary genealogies back through the kings and heroes to the Milesian invaders
from Spain (1000-800 BC) who fought for the island with magical Tuatha De Danaan and the
firbolg (the Picts), and who before that were in Scythia, Greece and Egypt.
Supposedly, this William Harrison Senior was one of the first two Burgesses elected when
Prince George was formed in 1702
DISCLAIMER: Entries for the years 1658-1686 in the chronology offered below came largely
from the work of Beverly Fleet, with a few additions marked Nugent and Hopkins. Entries for
the period 1688-1713, came from the work of Dr. Weisiger, except an entry marked Nugent
(James E. Harrison booklet, Sources: Ayres, Fleet, Haun, Hopkins, Nugent, Weisiger).
There is no attempt to attach each of these entries to William Harrison Senior or to his father.
The entries are presented merely to provide information on those citizens named William
Harrison who occupied this area during this period. It is difficult, if not almost impossible, to
know whether there was another William Harrison in this area who cannot be clearly
identified! (PMH)

2. Waldegrave18 Clopton I (William17, William16, William15, Walter14, William13, Richard12, William11, John10, William9, Thomas8, Walter7, William6, Walter5, William4, Walter3, William2, Guillaume1 Peche, Lord Of Cloptunna and Dalham)5,6 was born November 19, 1719 in New Kent County, Virginia7, and died April 13, 1786 in St. Peter's Parish, New Kent County, Virginia, probably8,9. He married Unity Alford Abt. 1753 in Virginia. Marriage Bond was filed at the Cumberland Court House, daughter of John Alford and Grace. She was born December 16, 1724 in New Kent County, Virginia10, and died Aft. June 30, 1787 in St. Peter's Parish, New Kent County, Virginia, probably11.
Children of Waldegrave Clopton and Unity Alford are:
+ 6 i. Waldegrave19 Clopton II, born November 11, 1755 in New Kent County, Virginia; died Bet. August 6, 1804 and February 11, 1822 in Virginia, probably.
+ 7 ii. Alford Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent.
+ 8 iii. David Clopton, Sr., of St. Peter's Parish, born 1760 in New Kent County, Virginia; died Bef. July 3, 1823 in probably Henrico County, Virginia.
Waldegrave Clopton was a Captain in the American Revolution. Although his military records have not been found, it is safe to say he probably entered service by 1776. He was a Captain by the time his younger brother, Thomas, joined him on the battlefield in early 1778. Thomas mentions him several times in his application to receive a pension for his service.
9 iv. Thomas Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent12, born February 10, 1762 in New Kent County, Virginia; died Aft. December 12, 1833 in Henrico County, Virginia, probably.
Thomas was about sixteen years old when he entered the American Revolution as a substitute, a Private, no less. His father, who could well afford to set him up with horses, weapons, and all the fine accouterments a gentleman required to enter battle, possibly did not want to send his youngest son to war. Like his great-grandfather, William, who defied his well-to-do father and apprenticed himself to finance his trip to America, Thomas no doubt was determined to join his elder brothers as the fledgling nation fought for independence.
10 v. Unity Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent. She married Massie.
Her brother, Thomas, mentions his sister, Massie, "a widow" in his application for pension for his service during the American Revolutionary War. It is not clear if her first name was Massie or if she married a Massie.
11 vi. Frances Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent.
Frances Clopton is a witness to an indenture (GS Film 031793 (7566 Pt. 3) Vol. 2, page 467) between Unity Clopton and Tarpley White. It is not clear what relationship Frances Clopton has with this family. More research is necessary. A copy of this indenture is located in the Clopton Family Archives.
12 vii. Lyddall Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent.
It has not been established that Lyddall Clopton is the son of Waldegrave Clopton, Jr. A Lyddall Clopton and Alford Clopton, witnessed an indenture (GS Film 031796 (7566 pt. 6) Book 8, page 605), which is located in the Clopton Family Archives, dated June 17, 1809. The indenture is between David Clopton and his wife, Mary Ann Vanderwall, of the County of Henrico. David named one of his sons, Alford. It may be that Lyddall is his son and not his brother.
13 viii. William Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent12.
William Clopton is in the New Kent Military Class Number 22 in 1782. | CLOPTON Waldegrave (I114)

1-There was NEVER a 96th District in South Carolina. This implies that there were at least 95 other "districts" which was not the case. In 1767, SC was divided into 7 JUDICIAL DISTRICTS, each with a court house and jail, to accommodate the growing residents of the colony. The upper area, taken by treaty from the Cherokees was named NINETY SIX DISTRICT (no hyphen and no TH) because the jail and court house were placed in the little village of NINETY SIX, an important trading post with the Cherokees between Charleston and Keowee their capital.Tradition has it (without proof) that the village was so-named because of its distance from Keowee. 2-At the death of Francis Meriwether (Mrs. Watson gives the date as 1809 not 1819 in "Greenwood County Sketches", page 327) there was no longer a 96 District. In 1785, the whole state was divided into counties (but still called districts). Ninety Six district thus ceased to exist in 1785, as it was divided into the counties of Abbeville. Edgefield, Newberry, Union and Spartanburg...and 100 years later, in 1886 McCormick was formed from Edgefield, Greenwood was formed from both Abbeville and Edgefield, and Cherokee County was formed from Union and Spartanburg Counties. | MERIWETHER Francis (I2098)

6. Waldegrave19 Clopton II (Waldegrave18, William17, William16, William15, Walter14, William13, Richard12, William11, John10, William9, Thomas8, Walter7, William6, Walter5, William4, Walter3, William2, Guillaume1 Peche, Lord Of Cloptunna and Dalham)26,27 was born November 11, 1755 in New Kent County, Virginia28, and died Bet. August 6, 1804 and February 11, 1822 in Virginia, probably29. He married Mary Brown30, daughter of James B. Brown. She died Bef. August 6, 180431.
Waldegrave Clopton was a Captain in the American Revolution. Although his military records have not been found, it is safe to say he probably entered service by 1776. He was a Captain by the time his younger brother, Thomas, joined him on the battlefield in early 1778. Thomas mentions him several times in his application to receive a pension for his service.
Children of Waldegrave Clopton and Mary Brown are:
+ 30 i. James Brown20 Clopton, Sr, M.D., C.S.A., born in New Kent County, Virginia; died January 1865.
31 ii. Margaret Clopton, of New Kent County, Virginia. She married Winston Harwood.
32 iii. Miller Clopton32, died Aft. 1850 in Milledgeville, Baldwin County, possibly, Georgia33. He married Obedience Tesseville February 13, 1825 in Eatonton, Putnam County, Georgia34.
In the first census of Georgia taken in 1820, a Miller Clopton is shown living in Captain Thomas Bustin's District of Putnam County. There are two white, males shown living in the house, one, aged 16 to 18 (born about 1802 to 1804), and one, aged 18 to 26 (born about 1794 to 1802). Since the census was taken before his marriage, the identify of the younger person is unknown. The census states he owned two slaves
+ 33 iv. Thomas B. Clopton, M.D., born May 7, 1798 in New Kent County, Virginia; died December 7, 1874 in Americus, Sumpter County, Georgia and buried Oak Grove Cemetery, Americus.
+ 34 v. William Clopton, of New Kent County, Virginia, born Abt. 1799; died Abt. August 10, 1855 in Richmond, Virginia and buried Hollywood Cemetery, Richmond, Virginia on August 10, 1855 at the age of 56.
35 vi. Mary Brown Clopton35. She married Jesse Wesley Yarbrough June 12, 1821 in Henrico County, Virginia36.
+ 36 vii. Patrick Henry Clopton, Sr., born in New Kent County, Virginia; died May 19, 1829 in Henrico County, Virginia.
37 viii. Waldegrave Clopton, III., M.D.37, born 178738; died November 8, 1832 in Wilkinson County, Georgia.
The Fourth Land Lottery, also known as the 1821 Lottery of Georgia, lists a Waldegrave Clopton living in Laurens County, Carsons Military District. He drew land in Dooly County, Lot 221, Section 16. Numerous records found in "Laurens County Georgia Legal Records, 1807-1832," indicate he was a physician and served as Justice of the Peace, in Laurens, however, documents in Wilkinson County reveal he later relocated to that county, although he continued to have business in Laurens. His obituary, which appeared in Milledgeville, Georgia's "Southern Recorder," dated November 15, 1832, page 3, reads:
DIED at his residence, in Wilkinson County, on the 8th inst., Dr. WALDEGRAVE CLOPTON, after an obstinate attack of fever, which lasted eight days. Dr. Clopton was in his 45th year of his age. He was a native of Virginia, and located himself in this State 15 years ago [about 1817]; and as a Physician, was universally liked. He has left a large circle of friends and acquaintances to lament his loss. His death is severely felt in his neighborhood. Dr. Clopton was a Univeralist in principle; and we believe he died strong in that faith."
The Monday, November 26, 1832 issue of Milledgeville's "Georgia Journal," carried a notice that Thomas Clopton applied for letters of administration on Waldegrave's estate. Copies of these notices, and others, are located in the Clopton Family Archives. | Capt. CLOPTON Waldegrave, Jr. (I10689)

Alford19 Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent (Waldegrave18, William17, William16, William15, Walter14, William13, Richard12, William11, John10, William9, Thomas8, Walter7, William6, Walter5, William4, Walter3, William2, Guillaume1 Peche, Lord Of Cloptunna and Dalham)
In previously published Clopton genealogies this Alford Clopton was incorrectly identified as the Alford Clopton, M.D. (1787-1870), who is, in fact, the son of David Clopton, Sir., and his wife, Mary Ann Vanderwall. If any references are found to an Alford Clopton in documents of this period, great care must be taken to connect the document with the correct Alford. The Clopton Family Archives contains several legal documents which refer to an Alford Clopton, however, it is not always clear which Alford is named.
Two Alford Cloptons are listed in the Georgia Tax Digests for the year 1815 living in the John H. Brodnax District of Putnam County. In the 1821 lottery, the fourth, in 1821, an Alford Clopton is granted 2020 1/2 acres in Monroe County, Georgia, in the Leggetts Military District.
It is believed the Alford Clopton living in Monroe County was the son of Waldegrave Clopton, I and his wife, Unity Alford. It is further believed that he had at least three sons. The parentage of these sons must be studied further, and until more evidence is presented, accepted tentatively into this particular Clopton line.
Children of Alford Clopton, of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent are:
+ 38 i. Pleasant Perrin20 Clopton, born March 8, 1796 in Georgia; died January 18, 1877 in Greenville, Meriwether County, Georgia and buried at Old Providence Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery, near Luthersville.

Biography - Solomon Barnett
Solomon was the husband of two women. His first wife was Eliza Lister who he married on 28 Jul 1836 in Putnam Co., IN.
His second wife was Anna Elizabeth (Owens) Barnett who he married on 16 Jun 1961 in Harrison Co., IA. He was the father of ten children.
Cause of Death: Stroke.
Solomon owned a farm in Putnam Co. on the Nation Road June 1840. Four houses away lived Susan Lister, an elderly woman whom it is assumed was Eliza's mother. Ten years prior 1830 Nathan Lister was also living in the county with one son, one daughter and wife. John Gibson Lister also named a son Mathias Nathan which would be the first name of both his grandfathers. (Both Nathan and Susan Lister would have been born in the early 1790's)
In 1850 Solomon was still living in the same place. John G. Lister and his wife Elizabeth were living three houses away. Probably on the land that had belonged to Susan Lister. Eliza Lister Barnett and her brother John G. Lister both received property at the same time, probably upon the death of their parents. This ocurred 13 May 1847 and 15 May 1847. Solomons's property in 1850 was valued at $1000.00 The first five daughters were born on the farm at Washington Twsp. Putnam, IN In the later part of 1850 or early 1851, Solomon moved his family farther west on a farm near Terre Haute, Vigo Co. IN. where he lived 2 or 3 years. His first son was born at this place. Like his two elder brothers, Solomon was also in the hog raising business, but misfortune struck and all of his animals died of hog cholera. With this he decided to move westward again. He went out into Iowa and with his brother, Peter decided to settle in Harrison Co. IA in 1853. This was the year of the great land rush into western IA. Daniel Brown was the first settler (white settler) in the county. His grandaughter, Lavina Jannett Brown later married Solomon's eldest son, Lewis Scott Barnett. There were 44 oather families that also moved into the area at the same time. Most of them coming from the Indiana and Ohio country.
Solomon was a member of the first grand jury held in the county in 1853. his farm and home was located in Magnolia Twp. near Calhoun, Harrison Co. In Section 5. The family called it the Juddo Farm. His family also later operated a hotel in Moorhead, IA and kept the old farm at the same time. They also operated a music store in Missouri Valley, IA. They sold the store just prior to moving to CA.
Solomon's wife, Eliza Lister died in the early 1860's. It is not known just where she was buried. There is no record of her being buried by her husband. According to his eldest son, Lewis Scott, the children were cared for by willing friends and relatives in foster homes until arrangements could be made to better care for them himself. Lewis said he went to live with his grandmother. He was only a small boy age 9 years. He said she was Pennsylvania Dutch (this term is used to describe the German settlers in Penn). Many of them moved to NC so the Keller family have originated from Penn. before moving to NC. Lewis said she could not speak English very well. If this were his grandmother, Betsy Keller Barnett, she would have been about 83 years old.
On June 13, 1861, Solomon married Anna Eliza Owens. She was born 9 Sept. 1843 in Clay Co. IN. a daughter of Jacob and Eleanor McNeil Owens. She had come west to IA with Solomon's family. She was 6 years younger than Solomon's eldest daughter, Susan. Two of her other new step children also preceeded her in age. An unusual task for any woman to step into a family and be a mother to a family, three of which were older than herself. Anna Eliz had ten children. This added to the 8 born to his first wife makes a sizable family of 18 children for Solomon. At the time this booklet was written (1968) three of his children are still living in CA.
Solomon died at the Juddo farm, according to his daugher, Coral Inez. He apparently died of a stroke. Relatives in IN said he arose one morning and didn't know any of his family. His death certificate states he died on June 9, 1886 at Union Twp. Harrison, IA age 70. Cause of death was "Embolism". He is buried in the cemetery at Magnolia, Harrison IA. The gray stone marker is still in good condition. | BARNETT Solomon (I10498)

Yesterday was married in Henrico Mr. William Carter, son of Mr. John Carter Aged 23 to Mrs. Sarah Ellyson relict of Gerrard Ellyson, decd., aged 85 a sprightly old tit with three thousand pounds.
Robert Ellyson, son of Gerard Robert Ellyson was a resident of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent County, when in 1751 he was processioner and later. His wife, Sarah, was a sister of the Hon. John Clopton.
Thomas Ellyson lived in Chesterfield County, and was the father of the three nephews who were named in the will of their uncle Gerrard Ellyson in 1770.
These people were Quakers and belonged to the Quaker meeting in uppor New Kent County which accounts for the absence of the Ellysons from the St. Peter's records. | CLOPTON Sarah (I202)
