Hello again Leslie;
Here's the 'short-form' summary of the possibilities of the earliest Darwins in Virginia outlined in my earlier postings:
THEORY 'A': The family looks like this:
[1st Generation]
William Darwin, Senior: birthplace and birthdate unknown, but prior to circa 1688. Death date and place unknown. Married to
Jean Darwin: birthplace, birthdate, maiden name, place and date of death all unknown
Child of above:
[2nd Generation]
William Darwin, Junior: born 1707 in Virginia, died 1786 in Louisa County, VA. Married to
Jane {?Wilkerson), born 1715, place unknown, died circa 1790 in Lousia County, VA.
Children of the above:
[3rd Generation]
Agnes - born 1735
Jane - born 1737
Keziah - born 1739/40
William III - born 1742
James - born 1744
Bartlett - born 1745/46
John - born 1755
Jesse - birthdate unknown
THEORY 'B': The family looks like this:
[1st Generation]
William Darwin, Senior: born 1707, place unknown, Virginia, died 1786 in Louisa County, VA. Married to
Jane {?Wilkerson), born 1715, place unknown, died circa 1790 in Lousia County, VA.
Children of the above:
[2nd Generation]
Agnes - born 1735
Jane - born 1737
Keziah - born 1739/40
William, Junior - born 1742
James - born 1744
Bartlett - born 1745/46
John - born 1755
Jesse - birthdate unknown
As I've said, I believe Theory 'B' fits the documents much better than 'A', but that is only my opinion. Would be delighted to hear evidence and/or other lines of reasoning from any quarter!
