This John resembles John Childress (shown here as a brother). Are they the same person? Further research is warranted.

• 1730 in Henrico County, Virginia

• April 20, 1734 in Bristol Parish, Henrico County, Virginia

Date and place of death have also been (erroneously?) reported to be 1797 in Goochland County (including specifically at Goochland, which might not have existed), Virginia.
