Comments: At this point in time, we will give Dorcas the benefit of the doubt and assume she was married to a Shiflett. We don't know who he was. We have found her on two records so far. If she was married, her husband probably died before 1815, otherwise Lucy's father would have confirmed she was over 21. The following document was sent in by Ruth Porter porter3@ns.gemlink.com
Orange County, VA Marriage Bonds Book 2 p. 9
[This is on a small about 6" piece of paper attached to p. 9]
July the 23rd 1787
Sir: John Michie is about to marry my daughter Frances Early and has
applied to me for my consent for which I have hereby signified under my
hand and seal.
Sanford Phillips Thedoshe Early
