Interested in determining the tie lines of the Amelia County Seay line with the Hanover County Seay line of Hezekiah, if any. Old Jacob had a son named Hezekiah, but this is a different Hezekiah, not to be confused with the Hezekiah of Hanover County. Any one?

Here are the common elements of a bond between the Amelia Seays and the Hanover Seays:

1. DNA to known descendants of both lines show these Seay families are closely related.
2. Jacob of Amelia had a son Moses who married a gal from Spotsylvania County from the Samuel Luck family. The Lucks of Spotsylvania are know to have close ties with descendants of Hezekia's line.
4. Many of the same first names in each family.
5. Some of Jacob's line migrated to KY as did Hezekiah's line.

Moses was my ancestor in Amelia County. Do you have any info or sources for Jacob Seay Sr.?

yes, there was a diary kept by one of Jacob's grandsons which got published in the William and Mary Quarterly, if I remember correctly.
