Hi Anita
 
Though my family is white our Jackson family were from Henrico County and  
my Jacksons married Bells from Fredericksburg. 
 
I have my Jackson's back to Ralph Jackson 1600s and Bells also back to  
1600s. Think there is any connection?

Janice,
The main surnames I am researching are, made up of Mulattoes  and Free 
Blacks. The is one white woman, named Lydia Hilliard (b. abt. 1690, d.  aft. 
1710), who bore a child by a negro man abt. 1710. That child went by the  name 
Mary Monroe, and was the mother of my direct ancestor, Mary Bowden (b. 1730  
d. aft. 1810). 


Here are the surnames: Bowden (Westmoreland County,  Fredericksburg;Monroe 
(Westmoreland County;Hilliard, (Westmoreland County;Pinn  (Northumberland, 
Lancaster, Dinwiddie, and Amherst County); Evans  
(Brunswick/Lunenburg/Amherst County); Cooper, (Elizabeth City, Nelson and  Amherst County); Lewis (King 
George County, Fredericksburg, Northumberland  County, The City of 
Richmond, and Henrico County); Jackson, (City of  Fredericksburg).

Any assistance will be appreciated.

Anita
