Elizabeth (Betsy) Vawter Thornton & John Wyatt Thornton
Posted by: Terry Thornton (ID *****5343) Date: January 12, 2004 at 10:20:16

Seeking information on Elizabeth (Betsy) Vawter, w/o John Wyatt Thornton.

Betsy may have been the d/o Russell Vawter b 1755 and Mary Sparks Vawter and born in Culpepper Cty, VA. Betsy was born in 1780. Betsy may have been the grandd/o Richard Beverly Vawter and Frances Towles Vawter.

Betsy married John Wyatt Thornton who was b 1775, Brunswick Cty, VA, d after 1840 Wilkes Cty, GA. John Wyatt Thornton also was married to Agnes Paulette. I do not know which wife was first.

John Wyatt Thornton had four children: Richard Thornton; Francis Holcomb Thornton; Presley Lacy Wyatt Thornton b 1810; and Catherine Thornton b 1837.

If this Richard Thornton my g-g-grandfather, he would have been born probably in NC between 1790 and 1795. I am seeking information to determine if Richard was the son of Elizabeth Vawter Thornton.

Any help will be most appreciated.
