From Wythe Co., VA, marriages: JAMES M. SURRET married SUSAN JONES on 27 October 1850. There were several Serratt Surratt families in Wythe Co., VA, part of which county eventually became Bland County. I think this is your James Surratt who married Susan(nah): 1850 Wythe Co., VA, 8 Aug 1850, dwelling 707: William Sundy, 27, laborer, value $500, b. VA Edward Hankes (Hawkes), 25,b. VA David Hankes, 30, b. VA Noah Hankes, 19, b. VA Azariah Sundy (Lundy), 65, b. VA Jonathan Sundy, 21, b. VA Jacob Hagy, 25, b. VA David Harlan, 30, b. VA George McNeal, 15, b. VA JAMES SURET, 25, b.
