I know your question wasn't directed to me, but I was reading the emails with much interest because my ancestors were immigrants to Virginia, also.  I found this website on Google concerning the book that Mary made reference to:

http://www.evmedia.com/virginia/

I am researching the Williams line which is quite a "tall order".  I am searching for more information on Joseph Williams, who was born around 1700 and a son of Thomas Williams. Joseph had a son named Bly who was named in Thomas' will, but I have been unsuccessful so far in finding out what happened to Bly. If anyone has any information on this line, I would love to hear from you.

Margie,
What book is it that you are referring to?  I am researching  my family
history and am hoping there is something out there that I have not come
across yet.

I am looking for information on John Richards, John Richards, Jr., Robert
Bird I, and Anna Bird.

It is thought that John Richards, Jr. married Anna Bird, daughter of Robert
Bird I and Catherine Holmes.

I have only been able to go back to 1681-2 for John Richards, when he
received a land grant for 1670 acres in St. Stephen's Parish.  This land
adjoined land owned by Robert Bird in what is referred to as Dragon's Swamp.

I am hoping to find information that indicates Richards'  whereabouts prior
to this time.  I would especially like to learn when the Richards arrived in
Virginia.
I have one source that states Robert Bird was born in 1637 in New Kent
County.

Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
