James - the First Broyhill
Son of William Broughall Jr. 1760?-1832 |
James Broyhill married Rebecca Bailey on Sept. 22, 1785, in Halifax
County, Virginia. His name was originally Broughill. He
adopted the present Broyhill spelling around 1806, when he moved from
Virginia to Wilkes County, NC. Every natural Broyhill in the
United States descends from him and his wife Rebecca. They had six children. In
general, most of the Broyhills of North Carolina and Virginia descend
from John Norman and those of the mid-west from James Jr. |
