This Archer line starting with John Archer I in b.1644 is difficult to source due to the number of John's, and William's in the line. All of whom were from the Henrico and Chesterfield VA Counties. I keep all of it separated from my tree as sourcing is extremely if not impossible to do. John E. Archer Iowa City, Iowa
