Hello , you are a distant cousin.I amdirectly decended from Samuel and John and Mary.We do not have a last name for Mary. There is a lot of information in the book "Genealogy of a Hight Family - John to JamesVirginia 1725 to California 1996 by James RussellHight 1996We had the information back as far as the John Hight who came to New Kent, va. as a headright passenger but it was nice to know that Mr. RussellHight wrote it all down. I am currently researching in England (and so are my nieces) and since we don't know where in England and do not know the ship he came to America on it has been slow progress.. We are trying to follow up leads when they do come in .Glad to know that someone else is doing the same thing .Welcome to my Hight family. You may be a cousin six or seven times removed but we are glad to find some of our relatives that we did not know about.Please keep in touch through the Genforum program. Hope to hear from you again.If you find out anything on the English connection please let me know and I will do the same.
