 Good Morning From Gainesville, Ga., We May Have Spoken In The Past,
But I Noticed You Above Query !

I Have A James Richey, Sr. Born 07-25-1724 In Derry Co, Ireland, 
He Died 08-12-1808 In Abbeville, S.C., He Married To Margaret Caldwell
About 1749, She Was Born 01-04-17-27/28- In Pennsyvania, She Died
09-12-1802 In Abbeville, S.C., Their Children Were James Richey, Jr.
Born 11-02-1752, In Amelia, Va., He Died 06-05-1833 In Donalds, S.C.,
His Wife Was Elizabeth Dunn,---(2)-A Son Andrew Richey, Born 1768, In 
Amelia, Va. ,He Died 1834 In Abbeville, S.C., He Was Married To 
Elizabeth Webb;

There Is A Book In Many Library's Named "Threads Of Ancestors", That
Contains Much On The Richey Family, My Connection Is That They Married 
Into The Lord Family,

I Could Do A Transfer By Computer If You Need It ?

James;
