Thanks for all that y'all have posted over the years about the Childers and Childress and related families!
This Spring 2007 a new compilation of the children of Abraham Childers (ca1681-1763) was published by J F Dorman etc in
page 723-724 of Vol. 3, 4th ed (vols. pub. Gen Pub
Co aprx2004-2007) of Adventurers of Purse and Person by John Frederick Dorman
Today I tried to post that particular compilation (the Va. Gen. vol 34-35 compilation is also very helpful, but I jusrt highlighting this new compilation in particular), in an attempt to estimate the vital records dates of Childers children more closely, using the documents cited by Mr. Dorman.
My initial effort is posted at
