A gentleman has sent me an email as a friend of a friend in hope that I might help him find the parents of an ancestor. "I have it that Margaret Sinclair b 1716 was married to Francis Tennille, Sr in 1740 in Stafford Co, VA. Do you know who her parents were? I am descended from Francis Tenille, Jr., who first married Winifred." Jean Grigsby, I believe this is your family search area and perhaps you have the answer. What I find on line is a little ambiguous. I find a Margaret Sinclair, daughter of Alexander Sinkler and wife unk, born 1719 who marries Francis Tennell 9 November 1740. This much information comes from the combination of Overwharton Parish Records and Virginia Marriages before 1800. The information on Alexander Sinkler wobbles into many confusing dates, a wife's name of Mary, and maybe 5 siblings with two different birth date records, all of which come from individual searches. Do you have this information on Margaret Sinclair's parents, her real birth date and confirmation of her marriage to Francis Tennille (Tennell/Tennill)? The requestor is John Hornady Chornao2@aol.net. Sorry, i do not have your email address.
