    • [Wiley Holland]

      Richard was the second son of Jacob Sr. He was born in 1750, Nansemond County, Virginia and died in 1798 in Wake County, NC. The DAR records show him dying in 1796, but I think that is not correct. His Revolutionary war records show him dying in 1798. That makes more sense considering he had
      been made an executor of Jacob's will in 1798. Richard married Mary Edwards about 1770. She was the daughter of Micajah and Elizabeth Edwards. Micajah was also a Revolutionary War soldier and his will is in Southhampton, Virginia, dated 1781. Jacob Sr. had11 children--- James- Richard your line)-Jacob(my line)-Lamon-David - Hardy- Diolacan(Cullen)- Barsheba- Sarah-Abra and William.I have all the Hunter, Beckwith, Yancey, Dudley,Hardaway,,Norrisetc etc. Some of it goes down to1964. All that is your
      line.My records show that Richard and Mary had eight children- 4 boys and 4 girls.Do you know anything about two of his daughters who married Hare brothers. One of the boys was Edmond who was still living in 1850 in Moore County and of course you have Col. David Henry who married Mabel Bridges.
