Researchers Notes

Parentage of Mary Bullock needs to be determined:

• Mary BULLOCK d/o John BULLOCK and Ann RICE
• He married Mary Bullock Abt 1741 at Albemarle, Virginia . Mary Bullock was born at New Kent, Virginia Abt 1720 daughter of Edward Bullock and Sarah Dalby... This is doubtful, as Edward Bullock's children are older than Mary Bullock, born circa 1720: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/GSJ7-F2M
• It is said that "Mary (Bullock) Moore is known to have been the sister of Patterson Bullock of Louisa County." This makes sense even though I cannot document it. Susannah Moore, dau b 1 Feb 1756 married David Bullock b: 10 Nov 1757 Albemarle Co., Virginia, Patterson's son. ^[3]
