Update from
Robert Francis Eardley--The Yeardley Connection - Addendum
04 May, 2002
For
those who may be new to researching on the web------here are a handful of
useful sites to use for your own investigations of the Yeardley
story in Colonial Times.
www.jamestowne.org
www.geocities.com
www.apva.org
www.eagle.vsla.edu/colonial/
Also use Yahoo.com Search
Engine. Type in the 'slot'--Walke Family scrapbook and find this and
many other sites on early Virginia history. Similarly type in any
other idea or title you may wish to investigate. For example the 'Vernon
family website'------Admiral Vernon----William Penn-----Yardley,
Pennsylvania------Yardley of London----University of Virginia Historical
Records.
Flowerdew Hundred -----and so on. One
site leads to another. In a short time you will be
researching your own lines of inquiry. Apologies to all of you
who can already do this. I am simply trying to assist Eardleys
starting out. Some of you will see that I made a mistake in calling Ralph
an Apothecary; just a 'senior moment' I'm afraid -------he was of course a
merchant tailor made free after servitude to Alexander Hickes on 5th February
1573.
