My own life and my opinions are shared at When I was 69.

REMEMBER: In North America, the month of September 1752 was exceptionally short, skipping 11 days, when the Gregorian Calendar was adapted from the old Julian one, which didn't have leap year days.

Anne Meriwether Stith Bolling

Anne Meriwether Stith Bolling

1660–1709

Birth 25 JANUARY 1660 Charles City, Charles, Virginia, USA

Death 17 JULY 1709 Kippax, Charles City, VA

Happy birthday Mrs. Bolling!
Finally I'm getting to post someone's statistics on her birthday.

She's part of my father's family tree, George Rogers Tree.  I've had other posts about the Bollings of Virginia, Here for Col. Robert Bolling,
and HERE for Mary Agnes Bolling Kennon, her mother. [daughter]

The Bermuda Hundred is described HERE 

Anne Meriwether Stith Bolling was the second wife of one of the wealthy influential colonials, Co. Robert Bolling. 

Though Anne had been born in America, her parents were from England, and there's some confusion who her mother Jane Stith actually was, a Mosby, Parsons or Gregory.  Her father was Major John Drury Stith, II.

She was one of 10 [numerous] children.  She and Col. Robert Bolling had 8-9 children.  Actually his oldest child, John Fairfax Bolling was the grandson of Pocahontas. (See Here for more information on him.) 

Our relationship is through their daughter, Mary Agnes Bolling Kennon. The Bollings were the great grandparents of Lt. Spencer Clack of Sevierville, TN.

I'm having trouble just getting Ancestry to update with the hints that are given...somehow it's too much for it. OK, time to quit.

[editorial corrections done in March 2018]
I hope you have a good day today.
