Has anyone else tried to sort out the Robert Thompsons in Virginia in the 1600s?
My 4th g grandmother was Hannah Thompson b. 1735 in Albemarle County, VA. She married David Epperson there.
Hannah Epperson was named in her father, Robert Thompson's, will.
Hannah's father, Robert, was christened April 24, 1687 in New Kent County, Virginia. He married Jean/Jane Via and died in 1778 in Albemarle County.
Hannah had a brother named Robert b. 1713 in New Kent, VA.
I believe Hannah's grandfather was Robert Thompson b. 1661 in New Kent, VA and died April 1702 in the same county. He married Judith (possibly Key).
There is a Robert Thompson who married Sarah Farley in 1727 in Henrico County. He was born sometime in the late 1600s and his will is dated March 27, 1751 in Chesterfield County. I believe he died in 1754.
There is a Robert Thompson who was born in 1642 in Scotland and married Elizabeth Stewart. He died in 1698 in Henrico County, VA. He had a son named Robert.
There is a Robert Thompson who married Temperance (The Widow Yancey). He could have had two wives before her. He, of course, had a son named Robert.
There are a few arrival records for Thompsons in the 1600s in Virginia. Maurice arrived in 1620. He died supposedly in New Kent in 1676. A Robert arrived in 1656 and another Robert in 1671.
Too many Roberts.
