BUFORD -
Does anyone have the will of Capt. Henry Buford, b. abt 1751 and d. 1814, that can be shared? I am trying to find out if he named his son, Thomas Buford, as one of his heirs. Thomas migrated to Lincoln Co., KY and then to Overton Co., TN and may have died before his father. Thanks

EUBANKS, HARDWICK, HAYDON, McCALLEY, MITCHELL -
My great-great grandparents were Jarvis HAYDON and Harriet "Harry" Ann MITCHELL who were married on March 18, 1829 in Amherst County, Virginia. I believe that they lived near the Amherst / Bedford county line in the vicinity of Lynchburg or Forest. Jarvis HAYDON died in Bedford county and several of their children were born in Bedford county according to the family Bible.
Jarvis was the son of Jesse & Lucy (McCALLEY) HAYDON. The family Bible indicates that Lucy was born March 28, 1771 and that she died in April 1862 in Bedford County. I believe she was living with Thomas and Sally (HAYDON) EUBANKS in Forest at the time of her death.
Harriet was the daughter of John and Elizabeth (HARDWICK) MITCHELL (marriage bond December 19, 1783 in Bedford County, Virginia - Elizabeth was the daughter of Robert HARDWICK)
I believe that John MITCHELL was the son of Archelaus and Hannah MITCHELL and that they lived on or near Harris Creek.
In 1803, John MITCHELL must be "away", as his wife petitions the court to sell some of the furniture and other items in their home to provide for her and their children: Zachariah, George, and Harry Ann.
I would appreciate any information on the MITCHELL family regarding Archelaus and his children. Also if anyone knows what happened to my John MITCHELL or where he went that would be appreciated as well. I have been told that some of Elizabeth's HARDWICK relatives went to Kentucky. Finally, I would love to find a death record for Lucy (McCALLEY) HAYDON and discover where she was buried. Thanks!
