        From Wes's web site..

        Margaret Donnell is the key link. She wrote her will in 1744 i n Augusta Co Va, but she didn't die until 1770. She's listed i n 1744 as in Orange County, but that's only because that was the cl osest county seat to their location at the time. They actually l ived on Linville's Creek which was inside the jurisdiction of Au gusta Co.
        * I'm unclear at this point as to the order of her two marriages . She had been married to William Patterson and also to John Ada ms, and both husbands were deceased by 1744. I'm of the impressi on (the more I study these families) that she may have been marr ied to William Patterson first, and THEN John Adams, but again , I don't know that for sure. We do know that Margaret and Joh n Adams had at least four children, maybe more. There were Eliza beth Adams, Catherine Adams, Samuel Adams, and Jane Adams. Thes e children were all born between 1705-1715. Some say that they w ere born in Sussex Co on the DE.

        Margaret named in her 1744 will the following: "son Robert Patte rson, and his children; Mary Patterson, daughter of Robert Patte rson; daughter Jane Love; granddaughter Margaret Dollinson; gran ddaughter Ester Harrison; daugher Elizabeth; son-in-law Daniel L ove; son Samuel Adams. She named Robert Patterson and Samuel Ada ms executors. Daniel Love, Jane Love, and Ester Harrison signe d the will September 15, 1744, as the children of "Margaret Adam s".
