I'm looking for the parent's of Elizabeth Catlett. Elizabeth married George Bell
8/19/1777, Frederick County, VA, son of John Bell and Ann (?) I have John's Will.
The appraisement of John's personal items was recorded in Frederick County, VA
8/3/1779 and signed by William Helm, Robert Catlett, and John S. Woodcock. John and Ann
had six children, Ferguson, James, Mary, Robert, Samuel, and George. Mary was listed in
John's Will as Mary Catlett widow of Peter Catlett.
I think Elizabeth's parents are Elizabeth Calmes and Robert Catlett. Elizabeth Calmes
was also married to Leonard Helm.
George and Elizabeth Catlett had four children, Henry, Nancy, Lucy, and Squire.
This is very confusing because the Calmes, Catletts, Helms, and Bells married brothers,
sisters, cousins, etc.
Could anyone help me sort this out? I'm researching my daughter's ancestors,
Henry Bell and Ruth Nixon, of Frederick County, Virginia, and Nelson County, KY. Thanks.
