My 4 times Great Grandma was Eliza A. Wayland. On my Grandfathers marriages certificate it names my Great Grandfather Michael Berry and Nettie Wayland. I can not find anything on Nettie Wayland and would love to know anything I can about her. Does anyone have any records of this Wayland? Michael was born in Morgan County VA on Feb 3, 1882.

Michael Berry and Nettie Wayland show up in Union Hill New Jersey in 1906.
With two children that already had passed away and one living my Grandfather Melville Howard Berry. I place the birth of Nettie Wayland in 1881 from the records on my Grandfathers birth certificate.

Ann "Nancy" WILHOIT was born about 1800. She married James BROYLES on 4 Mar 1821 in , Culpeper Co., Virginia.

This was posted 4/99 by Fred and says that Ann's father is probably Joel Wilhoit.

Culpeper Co., VA Deeds Bk. XX p. 318
24 Aug. 1830
Reynolds Wilhoit and Lucy ,his wife, of Culpeper Co. and
JAMES BROYLES and NANCY, HIS WIFE, of MADISON CO.
sell 102 ac. on Stony Creek ( branch of Devil's Run)
to Carter B. Cropp

The deed mentions this property had been willed by JOEL WILHOIT to Reynolds
Wilhoit and Lucy, wife, and to James Broyles and Nancy, wife.

Germann Record # 13 also mentions that "Ann/Nancy m. 2 nd James Broyles, was
the daughter of Joel Wilhoit and Mary Wilhoit, dau. of Michael". I have not
seen Michael's will so do not know if the last statement is true (at this
point I believe Joel was Michael's brother.)

Michael Wilhoit sold parcels of land in different months in 1795 to each of
Joel Wilhoit, James Wilhoit , and Gabriel Wilhoit. All recorded 2/15/1796
