Looking for this family. Have Jeter info to share. Was recently told this:

"I really don't have much information on the Bell family. I do happen to
know that Andrew Bell, father of Elizabeth, was from Surry Co., Va. Some of
the Accomac Bells removed to Surry Co. The Bell family of Surry is
connected to the Thomas Warren line. He was Speaker of the House of
Burgess in the 1600's .
I am from a different line of Warrens. John B. Warren married Charity Bell,
born Oct. 27, 1745, daughter of Thomas Bell and Mary Latham.
The following is what I have from the Overwharton Register. The entries are
hand written. I visited the Aquia Episcopal Church in Stafford and they
graciously copied the pages for me.

John Bell,born July 2, 1745, son of Thomas & Mary
George Bell married Ann Hanson April 15, 1745
Charity Bell, born Oct. 27, 1745, daughter of Thomas
Mary Bell, born Jan. 7, 1746, daughter of Ann (no
father named, probably George)
Elizabeth Bell, born Oct. 26, 1746, daughter of
Andrew & Mary. In my notes I have Andrew's
father was Joseph & his mother was Mary
Corbett of Surry
Elizabeth Bell, born Jan. 31, 1748, daughter of George
and Ann
William Bell, born Oct. 25, 1748, son of Andrew &
Mary (brother of Mary)
Jonathon Bell, born Jan. 7, 1781, son of George & Ann
George Bell, born Oct. 1, 1753, son of George & Ann
John Bell, born July 26, 1754, son of Thomas & Mary
George Bell, born Sept.3, 1755, son of George & Ann
Thomas Bell, born Dec. 24, 1756, son of Thomas

It might be possible that George, Andrew & Thomas were brothers. I don't
know. If Andrew & Thomas were brothers then we are cousins! If you find
any connection would you be so kind as to keep me informed?"

By a very nice potential cousin!! I woudl like to find any info I can on this family, and hopefully find the connection between George, Andrew, and Thomas for the lady who so graciously gave me the above info!.

Thanks
Melissa
