• Notes

  After reading a bible record of the Lindsay family and viewing articles written in Virginia Magazine, I've come to the conclusion that IF it is our Sukie Lindsay that was the daughter of James Lindsay, she would have been born to James Lindsay and Lucy (widow of Edward Ware) and that Lucy would have been James' FIRST wife, not second wife. IF our Sukie were born to a second marriage, that would make her birth yr after 1747, which could not be, since she began having children circa 1750. She would have been born before James married Sarah Daniel circa 1719 and her mother Lucy likely died giving birth to her. There is an article written by a descendant [Mrs. Elizabeth Lindsay Gordon] claiming that the Lindsay immigrant was one father of James Lindsay and Caleb Lindsay was one Adam Lindsay of Scotland. Therefore I believe there must be more records found to substantiate or deny these claims. ..........Bible record................... Col . James Lindsay, of Caroline, son of Adam, the emigrant, married Sarah Daniel. His family Bible, now in the possession of Mason Gordon, Esq., of Charlottesville, contains the following entries: "Caleb Lindsay, the son of James Lindsay and Sarah, his wife, was born I4th Feb'y, 1720 "Elizabeth Lindsay, daughter of James Lindsay and Sarah, his wife, was born the 291h March, 1724. "John, son of James and Sarah, was born 27th August, 1728. "William, son of James and Sarah, was born 7th Feb'y, 1731. "Jacob, son of James and Sarah, was born 11th March, 1733. "Sarah, daughter of James and Sarah, was born i5th June, 1735. "Mary, daughter of James and Sarah, was born 3rd April, 1738. "James, son of James and Sarah, was born 23rd May, 1740. "Daniel, son of James and Sarah, was born 23rd May, 1742. "Reuben, son of James and Sarah, was born ijth Jan'y, 1747. "Sukie, daughter of James and Lucy Lindsay, was born ." .......................................................... .................................... "The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, Volume 10 By Virginia Historical Society" pp 96 97"The Albemarle Lindsays are descendants of Adam Lindsay, who is believed to have come to Virginia from Scotland in the latter part of the seventeenth or early in the eighteenth century. A MS. in the handwriting of Mrs. Elizabeth Lindsay Gordon, widow of Gen. William F. Gordon, of Albemarle, and a daughter of Col. Reuben Lindsay of that county, states: "My great-grandfather, Adam Lindsay, must have emigrated to this country early in seventeen hundred or before. I am not certain whether my grandfather, James Lindsay, was born in America or Scotland. I had a mourning ring made for my uncle Caleb, in which was inscribed 'Jas. Lindsay, died 1782, aged 82years.'
