    This is, as another member says; the way I see it as of now.  I have tried for months to prove our relationship to Chief Powhatan, finally on my birthday August 26, 2003 I thought I had it.  Then some question came about and now I have tried for several days to disprove the relationship of our Henry "Red" Gay to Chief Powhatan.  I could not.  Each time it came back to the same answer.  When I found the tree of President Thomas Jefferson and went climbing around in it; again I found our Henry "Red" Gay the son of William Gay and Elizabeth Bolling.  In each search there was some variation of his date of birth and the one listed is the most common. Please feel free to send questions and documented evidence for any changes.   There are many more additions of family members to be added to this tree and I will do that in the near future but for now it is:  Respectfully submitted by  Nancy Frost Moulton
