All the sons of William 2 and Abigail Colbourne appear to have died by 1765.So, how do George, William and Samuel, all in Broad Creek Hundred, Sussex Co. [NOT NC], DE in 1810 connect to them?The oldest DE male is in the household of Samuel in age group 45 & up making his birth c 1765 or earlier.The earliest probate in Sussex Co. is for William, 1820-1836, then Samuel, 1845.It is believed George left DE, went to Pickaway Co., OH and finally to Cumberland Co., IL by time of his death in 1858, aged 88, having been born in VA.Are the DE men 5th generation and the older male in Samuel's household 4th generation?What is known of the families of the 3rd generation sons listed?
