Kathleen,

I am Margie Puckett Barton and I am trying to prove lineage to became a
member of the Colonial Dames.  I am missing one connection and I am in hopes
you might be able to direct me on where to find the is information.

I have researching the PUCKETT for close to 30 years I can prove my line 
from Henry Puckett to Richard Puckett, Jr born according to Bristol Parish 
Vestry Records, born about 1721.  Richard's father was Richard Puckett Sr, 
son of William Puckett son of John Puckett son of Henry Puckett.

Richard Puckett, Jr was on orphan, his guardian was John Puckett of 
Chesterfield Co, VA, brother to Richard Puckett, Sr. According to books (I 
can not prove) Richard Jr had two sons; James Puckett and Thomas Hobby 
Puckett.  I can prove from James Puckett down to me, this James Puckett was 
suppose to have married Martha Dabney from Cane Creek Laurens County South 
Carolina (can not prove).

If you have ANY suggestions I would welcome them.  I have copies of most 
anything you can ask for, but nothing connection James Puckett to his father 
Richard Puckett, Jr.

Help please,
Thank you in advance for your time,
Margie Puckett Barton

_Genealogies of Virginia Families from the VA Mag. of Hist. and Biog._
(Baltimore, 1981), vol. 3, p. 691 (reprint of W.G. Stanard, "Harrison of
