Hello,
Here is more info re: JOHN STORY and FRANCIS STORY.
Another Culpeper County Court Paper:
enry Martin came into Culpeper County Court and Stated under oath:
JOHN STORY came to my house about 1771 with his four children:
oldest, John Story and Mary Story, and the 2 younger children, Susan Story and son, Francis Story.
In this statement he not only names the children who is oldest and the younger, but he
states that Mary married first a _____Lee, and then married Capt. John Lampkin in 1784.

My Butler Buckley supposedly married an Elizabeth Story around 1750 and had
children while residing in Culpeper County. Don't know anything else about
Elizabeth and have not been able to verify her marriage.
By any chance is she in your files?

This guy's earlier documentary "The Story of Man" was excellent, so this
new project is likely to be a very worthwhile study, and offers the
chance not only to have your own DNA tested but to participate in a
great anthropological study.

If one keeps an open mind about DNA testing and the publication of
results--realizing that all humans seem to be related--then the results of DNA testing
might be exciting. The article I read in the paper says that it is believed
we are all descended from one woman!!!
However, one of my British rootsweb correspondents reminds persons that
illegitimacy--and the revelation thereof as a result of DNA testing--no big deal
in most of Britain nor in much of Europe, I am told--might be quite shocking

In connection with Culpeper Co. and DNA sampling, someone mentioned Quakers
of Welsh nativity who were in colonial Pennsylvania.
I thought to myself--I bet there is something on the internet.
Using my friend google.com, I searched for welsh in Pennsylvania. There
are several pages about several waves of immigration to that colony. Try
it--even if your folks were NOT Quakers. Immigration is a large part of American
history.

HELLO,
Note: In Henry Martin 's oath in Culpeper County Court re: JOHN STORY and his family that
came to his house to live with him, thaT THERE is no mention of a WIFE with them. Did she die?
Could she have died during or after FRANCIS STORY'S BIRTH?
This is so far how I have the family:
JOHN STORY =M= ????_____ ________?
children:
JOHN STORY b. ABOUT 1759 if he died at age 19 on the Rev. War. Battlefield.
MARY STORY b. ABT. 1762 =M=1785 CAPT. JOHN LAMPKIN
SUSAN STORY B.. ABT. 1765=M=
There is also a will for Thomas Story (28 Jul 1774) in Chronicles of the
Scotch-Irish Settlement in VA by Chalkley. Mentions wife, Mary, sons Thomas,
James, John and daus, Rebecca, Martha, Sarah, Elinor, Elizabeth and Mary.
There are quite a few references to the Thomas Story family in the Chalkley
volumes. No Francis is mentioned, so this may not be yours.

Ginny,
The reason I'm on this list is that Ulrich Keener, after arriving in
Philadelphia in 1727 eventually moved to the Shenandoah area of VA,
Dunmore Co in those days. From there he moved to Fayette/Greene Co PA
about 1772. In 1774 his son John Keener, father of Elizabeth Keener
was killed by indians and buried at Whiteley Bottom just south of
present day Willow Tree, PA in Greene Co. In 1790 Elizabeth is married
to Joseph Price (my oldest known ancestor in the Price line) and they
show up with
Thanks for the historical sites - I was able to visit the Montpelier site and download an application for the James Madison family - we are cousins through the Taylors and the Gaines.

I am searching for James W. Spicer[born Aug. 1817 - 78/25/1905. He was

CNN announced that National Geographic is doing a search for the origin of
man and his migration...There are sending out DNA kits, under $100, probably
the same as the DNA genealogy projects.
This would be wonderful if they would make the results public to individuals
who paid to have their DNA tested. Think of the possibility of having such a
huge data base to search from. Wonder how long this will take and who can
join. Isn't DNAS turning out to be the best darn way to trace that brick
wall. And hopefuly
Several of the lines MAY come from the Prices we know settled initially
in NJ. So far we have no one known to descend from those NJ Prices.
We desperately need to get some samples from those lines in order to
connect some of the existing lines. I strongly recommend that you have
your relative participate if possible. A Y-DNA match is absolute proof
of a patrilineal relationship. Several of us have found that we are
from the same ancestors though in some cases we still cannot track down

Just email Cathy Harmon at CathyHrmon@aol.com. She can send you all
the information you need about the Price DNA project. I'm copying her

We've had a similar experience at the Price-DNA project:
http://www.pricedna.com/
Any male with a PRICE surname is welcome. Some of the most prevalent
lines identified so far are from the Carolinas, Virginia, and SW PA.

I have a William Price who said he was born NJ in 1813 on several census. Is
there a line that shows up in NJ? There is only one surviving male from this
line and he is in his 80's I could try to get him to contribute if you think
there is a prayer of a match.

Hello--all. I am descendant of Price, which was also Preiss and Preisch
from Germany, coming across the sea on The Winter Garden to Philadelphia about
1738. Mine were married into HARLESS (Harlas, Horlasch), Eplin (Ebbelin,
Epling), and FILLINGER lines. So, you can see there are many Anglicized
versions of German surnames!

My bad, his earlier documentary was a PBS miniseries called "The JOURNEY
of Man" not "Story"... worth looking for on rental or tv reruns.
