Teste John P. Mathews, D.C.

Many have asserted that the passage highlighted in brown indicates Elizabeth GRIGSBY was Josiah's wife, but she was not:  she was indentured to Josiah by the county because of her poverty.

Diana, Passing these records along for your Josiah Ramsey file. The Elizabeth Grigsby mentioned in Josiah Ramsey's 1805 will infers that Elizabeth's relationship to Josiah Ramsey was that of an indentured servant, otherwise she would have been an orphan or an apprentice until reaching her majority or serving her term of apprenticeship, and since her father is identified and not mentioned as deceased, she would not have been an orphan. Most certainly Elizabeth Grigsby was a minor child when she was placed in the household of Josiah and Elizabeth Ramsey on 11 July 1799, when the Wythe Co., VA "overseers of the poor bound out Elizabeth Grigsby, daughter of William Grigsby, to Josiah Ramsey (Wythe County Virginia Court Orders 1790-1791 & 1795-1810). This relationship is also supported by the stipulation in Josiah Ramsey's will providing that he had the authority to leave Elizabeth Grigsby to the care of his wife, Elizabeth. It appears from the Wythe Co., VA will records that Josiah Ramsey's wife was Elizabeth Gleaves, but I do not have any marriage records for Wythe Co., VA. >From Will Book 2, p. 297, it was recorded on 30 Mar 1830 that "Elizabeth Ramsey receives legacies from the will of her father, William Gleaves." I do not have the abstract for William Gleaves' will to compare dates, but it seems the 1830 record only shows when Elizabeth received her legacies not the date of her father's will. Lee

Clearly, this Elizabeth married a RAMSEY, but did she marry Josiah?
