News: Looking for females who are in the pure female lines (mother to daughter) from William and Sarah who are willing to do an mtDNA test. Such a person would be descended along an all female line from Mary DEVIN Biggers or Margaret DEVIN Reynolds. The hope is to identify the markers for Sarah SMITH Devin to help identify her parents. Contact the webmaster if interested.

Devin descendant, Stanley Wayne Devin, passed away at 1:30 a.m. on Dec. 4, 2014. He was the last living child of Ira & Oleta Devin.

      • The Marriage Bonds Book #1 is badly deteriorated and unavailable to the general public. The photocopy is from a loose file photocopy of a reconstructed page in the Pittsylvania County Courthouse. The page reference comes from the Marriage Index book at the Courthouse. I cannot be sure the reconstructed page is a true copy of the original page.
