While researching my primary interest in 1600's Barbados, I ran into the surnames of Harris and Gray in connection with Snipes. These three surnames also appear in Surry and Southampton VA in 1700's. This is why I believe they have a long-standing connection although documentation connecting them is minimal, generally witnessing wills, etc. Later (abt 1800), one of my Snipes relatives whose family migrated from Surry, marries a Joseph Gray Harris in either Anson, NC or Chesterfield, SC.
