I am the GGGranddaughter of Elizabeth V. Roach, who was married to Samuel J Nichols. They lived in Norfolk, VA. I have information of her living in St. Bride's Parish, Norfolk Co., VA from 1850-1896. I also have information from the family bible page stating that she died 29 Jun 1896.
Familysearch.org has a listing from Virginia Death and Burial 1853-1912, Elizabeth Nichols, B. 1824 Great Bridge, VA, D. 29 Jun 1896 Great Bridge, Parents Jas and Lettie Roach.
I believe that Jas Roach is married to Letitia Hodges and other children may have been Josephus Roach b. 1828, married to Elizabeth Hanbury, Ellen Smith and Mary Elizabeth Fentress, Margaret Roach b. 1836, Mary Ann Roach b. 1838, married to William Andrew Davis
Does anyone have any additional information, of the Roach, or Nichols family? Would be grateful for any additional information or connections. Thanks!
