(*Dudley Harvey is my grandfather, which of course would make Mary Frances Chichester my great grandmother. My dad was born in the late 20's, so he never met his grandparents. He only remembers a few of his father's siblings. I was 5 when my grandfather passed, so I have no clue about the Chichester family. [The answers that I could have received if I had been old enough to ask the questions, simply makes me shake my head.])
Considering the names of the children that George and Mary begot, I am thinking (hoping) that perhaps my 'Mary Frances' might be a part of this family. I am desperately searching for any information pertaining to the Chichester family. (I also have that Mary Frances' mother was a Tolliver.)
If you have anything, please email me at sadelc(a)hotmail.com and use the subject "Chichester".
Many thanks and God bless,
Stephanie
PS: I am also attempting to send a picture of their head stone located at Bealeton Cemetery, Fauquier County, Bealeton, Virginia. The head stone also includes their daughters Mary and Bettie.
