Cross Family from Fairfax,Virginia
I am researching CROSS, DEBELL, HUTCHISON, RECTOR and SAUNDERS I am sure that as time goes on there will be more names added to the list.I believe that most of my family came from Virginia, primarily Fairfax and surrounding areas.The following information was provided to me by Debbie Robison of the Fairfax Historical Society.John CROSS's will (Fairfax Will Book J page 402), lists wife Mary and the following children:
Nancy CROSS married Jeremiah HADEN
Sally CROSS married STUART
Elizabeth CROSS married HALL
William CROSS married JOHNSTON
Samuel CROSS
Benjamin CROSS married Nancy and Elizabeth SAUNDERS
John CROSS
Reid CROSS married Mary WINDSOR and SARAH BASSFORD
Fielder CROSS married LEWIS
Lewis CROSS
Kitty CROSS
Jane CROSS married William R. HOWARD
Jenny (June?) CROSS
The will was signed in the presence of James Lane Triplett and Catherine (Kitty) CROSS. Mr. Triplett lived on adjoining land to Benjamin CROSS. The will was proved 16 Dec 1811.Mary's will (Fairfax Will Book L page 182) was proved 27 Feb 1815 and mentioned her sons and daughters but only listed the names of Kitty and Jenny. I don't know if Jenny and June (?) are the same. person.
