Many of us are looking in favor of William and Hannah. We are just not sure which William. There were no records of Lester families of Lester in Fincastle>Botetourt>Montgomery counties before 1770. If anyone has such a record, please let the rest of us know! It is believed that Abner, Samuel and John moved into the SW VA area in about 1770-1771. Where did they come from? There are four currently thought possibilities; Caroline County MD; Fairfax County, VA; another county in southern VA; or Pennsylvania.
The Bryant & Sarah Wimbush Lester theory seems to be annulled because the Alexander thought to be the child of Bryant Lester was still in Lunenburg County in 1810! He also is known to have married a Mary Ragsdale. His name was never recorded as Abner in Lunenburg County records.
The Samuel listed in the records of Bryant Lester was not a son but I believe a nephew of Sarah- Samuel Wimbush, who was orphaned as a minor.Samuel Lester, brother of John and Abner Alexander, was indeed a Lester, and recorded such in military records. Also, John and Alexander most likely had a brother James, because according to authority Ruth B. Davidson James S. Lester of North Carolina named sons John . Samuel, and Abner.
I believe we can honestly look to see which William Lester m. Hannah and thus find the parents of these four brothers.
thanks
