This is my working hypothesis - the way I see it as of this moment!!
John Freeman
ca 1650 - ca 1711
married prior to 1683/4 Hannah ?
John Freeman was in Lower Norfolk Co, Va (now the City of Chesapeake) as early as Oct
1673. He and his wife both died between May 15 & 18, 1711 in Norfolk Co, VA.
He lived near the Western Branch of Elizabeth River, adj. the Great Dismal Swamp, near the
boundary with Nansemond Co, Va.
