Family
Histories
& Biographies
Here you'll find some short biographical
notes, and in the future (hopefully - time permitting), more comprehensive
family histories.
My earliest known MAY ancestor is Charles MAY of Buckingham
County, Virginia, who was married to Sarah HUNTER. His son Peter MAY married
Nancy MEREDITH, and their son William Meredith MAY married Catherine JARRETT.
Their daughter Lucy E. MAY was my great-great-grandmother. Two of her brothers
were Powhatan and Marcellus, below.
