John Yarbrough

Origins

Contrary to what was earlier believed to be true, later research has shown that while Frances Proctor may have been married to a Richard Yarborough (b. ~1615, d. 1702, buried at Old Blandford Cemetery, Petersburg, VA), this is not Richard the Immigrant (as the first known Yarborough is known). As of this time, nothing is known about who was the wife of Richard (the Immigrant) Yarborough.

There are deeds, wills and grave markers and other records still available that show Richard Yarbrough married Elizabeth Mason in 1680 and also married again a lady named Williams and had the following children: 1. Richard, Jr. 2 William Williams Yarbro 3. Edmund 4. John 5. Henry 6. James Charles 7. Thomas and three girls whose names I don't know.
