Chapter XX, William Combs, of Russell County, Va. (pp.
108-117)
Page 108. 1. There is a serious error
in this chapter; i.e., William
COMBS, Jr., b 11 Jan 1777, Stafford
Co, VA, d 1841, Russell
Co, VA; m Anna THOMPSON (d/o William and Nancy JACKSON Thompson) was
not the s/o William & Seth STACY Combs (s/o Mason
& Sarah Combs, Sr.), b 28 Nov 1740, Overwharton Parish, Stafford
Co, VA, but instead the s/o William
& Sarah Ann MILLION Combs, Sr. of Stafford Co, VA. Also note, however,
that William COMBS, s/o Mason, was also in Russell Co, VA - as were numerous
other early COMBS, and that confusion has raged rampant for years among
researchers as to Who's on First.
As noted by the author, the lineage in this chapter was furnished by
Frederick Harmon Combs who was not a Russell Co, VA COMBS, and that
some of this lineage (in addition to corrections noted herein and/or lineages
as documented in the above William COMBS, Jr. report) is incorrect and
that additional footnotes will be provided shortly.
