Melinda,
I too am a supposed descendant of Catherine Ring and Samuel Keith, and their daughter Mary Polly Keith.I too have hit a brick wall in researching this family; nonetheless, I have found some leads that have given me SOME ideas about where we might search next.

My question is:WHO IS THIS STEPHEN RING?Judging from his marriage date to Rachel Smallwood, I am guessing that he probably was born sometime prior to 1778, assuming that he married at an age greater than 18 years old.I suspect at least SOME connection between him and our CATHERINE RING, since both he and Catherine came from North Carolina during the 1700s and somehow in some form ended up in Russell County, Virginia.I am hoping that someone else might be able to help.Let me know what you think.
