Long Marsh Area Photos

 

These beautiful photographs of the Long Marsh area of present day Clarke Co., Virginia were taken by Carl L. Lindsey on his trip to the Long Marsh area in Spring 2007.  Click on any picture below to enlarge it. 
 
The gravestone is that of John T. Lindsey.  John T. was the son of Joseph Berry Lindsey (b. 1837) and Mary Elizabeth McCormick.  Mary was a descendant of Patrick McCormick, who was a neighbor of the Long Marsh Lindsey's when they first settled in the area ca. 1733.
 
Joseph Berry Lindsey was the son of Steven Jones Lindsey, b. 1808 and Hannah Elizabeth Lindsey, b. 1816, who were first cousins.  Steven's father was Thomas Lindsey, b. 1779, a son of John Lindsey, b. 1746, and Sarah Abrell Lindsey.  Hannah's father was James Lindsey, b. 1773, another son of John and Sarah Abrell Lindsey.  John Lindsey's father was Thomas Lindsey, b. abt. 1720, possibly a son or brother of Edmond Lindsey Sr. (b. 1697).  Thomas Lindsey, b. abt. 1720, d. 1769, is not represented in any of our DNA lineages, yet.
