This John Lightfoot had a Will dated 02 Oct 1806 in Brunswick Co. VA naming 2 sons, John Jr. & Claiborne and a daughter, Naly.  There is no mention of a wife.  In the 1788 VA Tax List, pg 12 there are two Johns listed with notations beside their names that appear to be "Son" & "Jun".  Just above these names is Phillip with a notation that appears to be "Dad".  What is the name of John Sr.'s wife and parents?  Thank you.
