1756 Susan Wray is listed as Mary Lee's mother in her marriage record. No father is listed, however, Mary Lee is identified as the daughter of Frederick Stier in the 1880 census. it appears that her parents were never married.

1757 Susannah Posey is named as a party in a bill of complaint filed in November Term 1814. Because Jesse Posey is not named in the suit, he is likely deceased. Posey, Jesse (I3525)

1761 The 1787 tax list for Washington County, Va shows William Tilson, Sr. with 1 son above 16 but less than 21. This son is William Tilson, Jr. William Tilson, Jr. then appears separately on the 1788 tax list indicating he had reached the age of 21. Tilson, William (I6939)
 
1762 The 1792 tax list of Pittsylvania County, Virginia shows Daniel Oakes with 2 horses. In 1793, Daniel is absent but Catherine Oakes is on the tax list with two horses. Similarly, Daniel Oakes is on the 1792 land tax list with 228 acres. In 1793, the land tax list shows Daniel Oakes, dec'd with 228 acres. These records show that Daniel Oakes died between 1792 and 1793 and that his widow, Catherine, was charged with the tax on his property in 1793.

On 10 July 1824, Wyatt Adkins was surety for the marriage of William Oakes and Sarah Fraley. On 13 Sep 1824, William Oakes was surety for the marriage of Wyatt Adkins and Phoebe Oakes. Given the ages of Phoebe and William Oakes, it appears that they are siblings. Consent for Phoebe's marriage was given by Catherine Oaks, widow of Daniel Oaks. This evidence suggests that Daniel and Catherine Oakes were likely the parents of William and Phoebe Oakes. 
Oakes, Daniel (I4189)
 
1763 The 1810 census shows the age of Jacob Young's wife, Martha, to be 26-45. Patrick, Martha (I8239)
 
1764 The 1830 census lists a female 10-14 who would have been born prior to the marriage of William Dove and Peggy Barrett. Dove, William V. (I2984)
 
1765 The 1845 will of William Dodd names "my three youngest sons who have had no land from me" implying that there are other, older sons. The three youngest sons are Thomas, William, and Nathan. William also names his wife, Frances. William Dodd died before 1850, and his widow is living in the household of James Dodd. From this evidence I conclude that James is an older son of William Dodd. Dodd, James (I7575)
 
1766 The 1850 census indicates the approximate date and county where he was born. Rudd, James A. (I2424)
