• Detached from English parents Matthew James and Mary Jane Sharpe

Francis Miles of New Haven was not born in Wales and did not marry a Virginian.

I assume that the parents of this Francis are unknown. Have seen references to Richard Miles B. 1598 and Mary Katherine Elithorpe as parents but they don't match up. They were born in England and lived in Conn.

Internet trees give her date of marriage to Richard Lewis as 1636 in Lancaster, Virginia.
