      One source claims that this Lawrence Sudderth died 1677 in Duxbury, Massachusetts, but this is very doubtful since his probable father, David Sudden/Sudderth was clearly located in Virginia, and the records of Lawrence Sudderth in Stafford County, Virginia are most likely of this Lawrence, who was an adult by 1680. Another Lawrence Sudduth, son of Henry Sudderth (probable brother of this Lawrence), born abt. 1672, was clearly too young to have been the same Lawrence Sudderth that is listed in the Stafford County, Virginia records listed below.

      Re: Lawrence Suddath b.~1679 Va. Posted by: Beverly Sullivan Date: March 04, 2000 at 19:31:11 In Reply to: Re: Lawrence Suddath b.~1679 Va. by Bob Nay of 345

      Lawrence was living in Stafford co., Va. on 21 July 1680 as an adult when he witnessed a deed between James Hadweth and William Simpson. On 12 Mar. 1690 he brought suit against Thomas Howard in Stafford co. for the non - payment of a debt and on June 12, 1706 he was an appraiser of the estate of "Parson" Waugh of Overwharton Parish, in Stafford co., Va. My cousin who has done this research has him as the father of James Suddarth. James was born about 1680. If you have any other info I would like to have it.

      In the late 1970s, the info Lib Finger had about wife of John was "Elizabeth, maiden name unknown, and they had four children."
      Separately, from late 1970s Sudderth data by Virginia Lee Satterfield and Mary Elizabeth (Sudderth) Throneburg, I find that mother of Nancy Sudderth (Mrs. Patrick) Hennessee was Martha (Patsy) Sumpter Sudderth (born February 16, 1765, and married on her 21st birthday), daughter of John and Catherine Sumpter.
