    Notes:

    Possibly William Bugg sneaked out of New Kent in middle of night to avoid paying a debt. Probably wife, Mary Bacon, had died by then. John William, born 1731, was apparently left behind and went to live with uncle Sharod Bugg, in Georgia (That Sharod was son of Samuel Bugg Jr.). So apparently William went to Fluvanna and married Susanna. Lots of Woodsons there. Both of them supposedly buried in Shores Cemetery in Fluvanna, now covered over. Have letter from Fluvanna librarian saying graves were marked some years ago but sites longer marked.

    Susanna married William Bugg in 1730 in New Ken Countyt, Virginia, USA. William was born about 1712 in St Peters, New Kent, Virginia, USA; died on 13 Oct 1796 in Bristol Parish, New Kent, Virginia, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
