Milfoard/Milstead Warder b. abt. 1780 MD or VA
I have the family of Jesse Warder, born in MD about 1760, moved to Pr Wllm Co VA before 1787 Census. Jesse wrote a will in November 1823. The will was proved in 1824. Testators were John and James Williams and Thomas Lindsay.
Jesse lists his wife's name as MILFOARD (she would have been born about 1770). His children were:
Jonathon, William, Walter, Mary Stonnel (w/o Richard) and Elizabeth Stonnel (w/o William).
Someone suggested to me that Milfoard was a corruption of Milstead. Has anyone heard of a woman with a given name of Milstead or Milfoard about this timeframe.
