Does anyone have any information regarding James Sayers/Soyars b 1760 Halifax Co VA? He was married twice. The second marriage was to Jane Oakes in Pittslyvania Co VA which is my line.
Any into would be appreciated thanks.

My great g,g,g grandfather is James Soyars, married Jane Oakes Dec. 16, 1793. What information do you have that indicates he was married previously? I am trying to locate where he was born in France, and when he came to America. Any help? Thanks.

Crystal, i'm looking for informaton about James Sayers mentioned in Chakley's Chronicles on the time period yiou mentioned. Do you think this is one in the same? Carol

I really have no idea about whether the James I mentioned is connected with those Chronicles. I have not heard of those before. What do you know about them? What locations do they concern?

The James Sayers I have in my line was born around 1760 and married Jane Oakes in Pittslyvania Co. Virginia.

May be a link between us. My ancestors are "Sawyers" also from Va. They later moved into Scott Co. Ill. A lot of names dates etc., coincide. Possible name change. Please contact me- oknark@volcano.net. Sue.
