Afternoon, Cousins (except Shaun: Evenin’),

Looking for a Doak researcher (or anyone else) who can help me find the parents of Ann Doak wife of George Breckenridge, b. abt 1718 in Augusta County, Va. I’m pretty sure this is not the same Ann who married Alexander Breckenridge (Doak-49) but there’s isn’t enough data on 49’s profile to make a good comparison, not discounting that Ann could have married brothers or cousins. Any help on Ann would be most appreciated!

Just for a thesis. It's rumored her father is

James Samuel Doak

Born: Abt 1670 - Ballymena, Antrim, Ulster, Ireland

Died: Abt 1753 - Donegal, Chester, Pennsylvania

I cringe at the source which is extremely derivative  - Edmund West (Anyone with access to ancestry is familiar) See G2G-215437

I however did find a Sar Record  (Sons of the American Revolution Membership Applications) SAR Membership: 35566 for the son Alexander Breckenridge which alleges Ann Doak to be born in Ireland however it doesn't say specifically where in Ireland

George Breckenridge who appears to have not emigrated till about 1740 according to the U.S. and Canada, Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Year: 1740; Page Number: 52 See Ancestry Link

Now I have found nothing that says when James Samuel Doak the purported father for Ann Doak emigrated

 The whole record appears to need a fine toothed comb and someone whose mind isn't 100 different places.

Thanks, Steve. Every clue is a lead. Appreciate your input! I’ll copy this and save it.
Ann Doak's parents were Robert and Margaret.  Robert arrived with his family at Boston in 1719, was 'warned out' and settled until 1725 in Nutfield, later renamed Londonderry

See Willey's Book of Nutfield

Robert's son John was my x4great-grandfather

There are some deeds in the 1720s and one in 1743 for 'Rockingham county' which help resolve these Doaks
