The Fitzhugh Family
Once again, I’ve allowed myself to get sidetracked. I
received an interesting email yesterday asking “would you happen to know if
... Tapscotts and/or Percifuls are related to the Fitzhugh family of Fauquier
County, VA?” Fitzhughs? I didn't remember seeing the Fitzhugh name. But when I
looked in my database, Fitzhughs were there and there was a connection to William
Doddrige Tapscott and a very remote connection to Mary Frances Tapscott. We have
already blogged about Mary Frances and
someday, we will do the same for William Doddridge. Since both Mary Frances
and William are descended from Elizabeth Percifull and are therefore related to Elijah and
other Lancaster County Percifulls, the Fauquier Fitzhughs have Percifull connections. As we work on the Fauquier Co Tapscott book, it is likely that we will find other Fitzhugh
connections.
The next blog will get back to the Holder line (I hope). Meanwhile,
we have Fitzhughs in the family. Welcome aboard!

My Expertise (what little I have) is not with the Fitzhugh family, on which I have apparently spent very little time. (I didn't even remember the name.) Let me know of errors.
