BOWYER, WOODS -
I'm looking for Albemarle County records, newspaper articles, etc.
of 1740-1760 that might solve a Woods family mystery: Who really were the
parents of Martha, Magdalena, Richard, and Samuel WOODS of the Lexington,
Rockbridge Co., area. A reputable historian claims that despite the omission
of their names in Michael WOODS, Sr.'s 1761 Albemarle Co., will they were
his children and that a prior settlement was made upon them after the death
of Michael's wife, Mary at the hands of Indians in 1742. He claimed that
Michael had extensive lands, and a home additional to Mountain Plains (now
Blair Park) that were in what ultimately became 3 counties. Besides a prior
settlement record/quit claim other possible items that might resolve this
question would be an area newspaper obituary for Richard WOODS dated 1777,
or Magdalena Woods McDowell Borden BOWYER dated sometime between 1795 and
1804. It is possible that these four (and more children) are instead children
of a John or Samuel WOODS that was a brother of Michael WOODS, Sr. of Albemarle
Co. (1681-1761). Any primary source help, please?

was. There is confusion as to whether his father's name was Bradley BERRY
or Enoch BERRY. He is listed on both family group sheets showing that he
is a child of both Bradley and Enoch. Do not know which line to follow
-- need to confirm information of the birth of George showing who his parents
were. Bradley Berry was born in Albemarle County. Enoch BERRY was born
in King George County. It would make more sense to me if he were the son
of Bradley. Trying to find someone out there who could confirm which parents
George was born to.

BROWN, HIGHT -
I am searching for possible roots into Albemarle Co., Va for two different
family groups. Hezekiah BROWN was reported to have come from this area
in 1770's and moved down the Valley into Tn, and eventually settled in
Cumberland Co, KY (now Clinton CO., KY). Any information on him? Also John
HIGHT moved into this area and his youngest son, Samuel HIGHT, was born
here in 1767. They settled in the lower co. area that eventually became
Nelson Co, Va. Any information? Thank you!
