1. William4 Anderson ("Intermediate"3, "York Watershed"2,

She was born Abt. 1644, and died Bet. 1671 - 1678 in York County,
Virginia.
Notes for William
Anderson:
It is tempting to follow the lead of
early writers and assign this man as a son of the early Andersons at Gloucester
Point, but 1 thing makes me hesitate: he lived on the South bank of the York
River.

I believe this record regarding Elizabeth to be the sister of
Bryan becasue it implies she is an orphan and her parents are not available to
testify as to her age.
