Great!

We North Carolina FAIRFAX folks are thinking that we came from this FAIRFAX
Family somehow, unless that British Soldier Story in our family has some
truth in it???!!!....{:).

Main query: Were there any British FAIRFAX soldiers that fought for England
in America during the years of 1775 - 1782???? ...{:).

Have a great day!!! ...{:).

Dear Dan

The will was the one you copied to me from Will Book H Page 82. William was
maried to Elizabeth who had sons: Hezekiah, William and John.

Thaks for other bits and pieces.
