Though not proved, it is considered likely that this William Pritchard/Prichard was actually the son of Thomas Pritchard Sr.'s presumed brother William Christopher Pritchard, who died six months before the child's birth. Since no record of the child's mother, Amelia Knotts, is found after that, it is possible that she died during childbirth, and the child was then taken into his uncle Thomas' family.[29]
He married Feb- -1805 in Monongalia Co, (W)VA,[30] Hannah Meredith (daughter of Davis Meredith and Unknown).

Lewis: Lewis Maxwell was a member of Congress from 1827 to 1833. A wealthy man for his time, he was a surveyor who entered large tracts of land all over his region of the state. Childless, he left no heirs, so much of his fortune fell to his nephew, Franklin Maxwell. Specifically, his will "gave his widow her dower, and divided the residue of the estate equally between the sons of his nephew Franklin one-half, and the other one-half equally among the sons of his brothers and half-brothers; Franklin Maxwell, under the Will, received $2,000 for settling the estate, and Judge Edwin Maxwell and the Judge's brother Rufus Maxwell received his Library."75,[77]

"Ritchie County in History and Romance," p. 40, lists as children of John Moody Pritchard and Sarah Haddox the same first eight that we show here, with the exception that a son Jasper is listed rather than James. James is documented through his marriage record as a child of this couple; since Jasper and James are shown as being of the same age, it would appear that James was also known as Jasper. There is no reference at all to a daugher Isabel, who is found in the 1860 Census and is identified in her marriage record as a daughter of John M. & Sarah Pritchard.

Much confusion has existed over the years concerning the spelling of his name and that of his father, but his father was Marville (despite being listed as Marvel in his wife's obituary), and he named his son Marvel. Nonetheless, both spellings are often seen for both men, even in official records. Headstone gives name as Marvel L. Haught, and the Social Security Death Index identifies him as Marvel Haught.
He married Maude Summers, b. Oct-13-1884 in Doddridge Co, WV,213,73 (daughter of Elijah W. Summers and Caroline Virginia Brown), d.

Mrs. Babe Brown
Dear Aunt,
After a long time of delay, I will now answer your letter received back in the States. This leaves me feeling fine, am in good health and sincerely hope for this to find each of you well and enjoying life.
Well, this is certainly a grand country with all its beauty, and my but there are lots of pretty girls here. But I have one back in the States awaiting on me, so I don't try to get acquainted with them here.
This has been a nice bright sunshiny Sabbath, and I have written the most of the day.
Has Chauncey Riddle returned back home yet?
How is business around town?
How is Brown's health? Is he as fat as ever? Tell him I am as I ever was, that Army life hasn't learnt me any bad habits yet and I expect to be the same as long as I live. Tell him hello for me and I hope to see him in the near future.
How are the children?
Well, Babe, don't wait too long to answer. So with love, best wishes to all, I will close.

Oath that Thomas Pritchard deceased deparrted this life intestate so far as he

In private correspondence in July 2013, the author revealed the following
findings from her research since the 2001 revision of her book:
"Thomas Pritchard, b. abt. 1689, King George County, VA., d. before
September 07, 1722, King George County, VA. m. to MARY, who remarried ?
DONOLY/DONALLY. Children of Thomas Pritchard and Mary are:
a. Christopher Pritchard
b. John Pritchard, b. July 01,
1719
At King George County Court,
March 04, 1725, Christopher Pritchard I is appointed Guardian of Christopher II
Pritchet (sic) an orphan, son of Thomas Pritchet (sic) deceased. On Nov. 06, 1725, Mary Donoly indentures her
son John Pritchard to Christopher Pritchard.
Mary may have been the second wife of Thomas; otherwise, Christopher
would not be an orphan. Perhaps it is so designated because he is the oldest
child and closer the age of indenture than his sibling. On Nov. 1728, the same Court orders that John
Pritchet, son of Thomas Pritchet, serve Christopher Pritchett to the age of
21. He was then nine years of age. During the same proceedings, Henry Williams
(son of Joyce Pritchard and Henry Williams Sr. deceased) is ordered to serve
Christopher Pritchet to the age of 21.
He was then fourteen years of age. The indenture of Henry Williams is
approved by his mother, now Joyce Smith of Washington Parish in

Although the wife of Christopher Pritchard II was originally identified as
Sarah Gollathan, daughter of Martin Gollathan, further research by author Emily
P. Cary has cast doubt on that conclusion.
Martin Gollathan (also spelled Golathan, Golothan and Golorthum) and
Christopher Pritchard II were parties to a land lease in Oct 1732, and Christopher
II was named as beneficiary and an executor of Martin Gollathan's will the
following month. Although quite
possible, there is no conclusive evidence that Martin Gollathan had a daughter
Sarah or that Sarah's surname was Gollathan. pp. 27, 28.

[383] Doddridge
County Birth Records, West Union, WV, The entry identifies child as S. A.
Richards, female, b. Sep 19 1877, daughter of David & S. A. Richards. This is a typed ledger entry, undoubtedly
transcribed from the original handwritten records. The middle initial "A" would seem
to be a transcription error from the original "R" as found in the
1880 Census, where this child is clearly identifed as Sarah R. Richards. But the 1900 Census identifies her as Lina
Richards (b. Sep 1877), the obituary of brother Daniel in 1968 lists a
surviving sister Lina Watson of Parkersburg, the marriage record of Lina
Richards in Dec 1902 give her age as 25 (i.e., born ca 1877), and the SSDI
shows Lina Watson, b. 18 [sic] Sep 1877, a resident of Parkersburg. Thus, it would appear that at some point in
her youth, Sarah R. Richards started going exclusively by the name Lina
Richards. BR Bk 1, p. 89.

Hart Simons and providing her birthdate as Mar 18 1884, also gives her age at

Childbed fever is more properly known as puerperal fever, a bacterial
infection contracted by women during childbirth or miscarriage. It can develop into puerperal sepsis, which
is a serious form of septicaemia. If
untreated, it is often fatal. From the
1600s through the mid to late 1800s, the majority of childbed fever cases were
caused by the doctors themselves. With
no knowledge of germs, doctors did not believe hand washing was needed. Statements like that of Dr. Charles Meigs, a
