Biography
I am currently retired and live in Grove Hill, Al. I graduated from Auburn University with BS and MS in Agronomy and Soils. I retired after a 40 year career with USDA. My first Richbourg ancestor came in 1700 and settled in Va. just west of present day Richmond at a site known as Manakintown. He was French Huguenot Pastor and fled persecution during the Protestant Reformation. He was the Junior Pastor at the settlement. His son married a descendant of Gov John West of VA so I trace my roots back to at least 1618. Some say that John West married Anne Percy a daughter of George Percy. George Percy was one of the men who landed at Jamestown in 1607.
My mtDNA (H1a1) is a perfect match with proven descendants of Joan Hurst Tilley who was a Mayflower passenger. We have not been able to trace that line as of July 2018.
Based on the above it is highly possible that I descend from both a Jamestown and Mayflower passenger.
