... he [William Radford], although unable to obtain tidings of her whom he sought, met there, and shortly afterward married, Rebecca [Winston], eldest daughter of the household. ... On April 4, 1803, after twenty happy married years, he [William Radford] departed this life, leaving his wife comfortably provided for as to fortune, and with six children, one of whom was my grandfather, John Radford. The other children of William and Rebecca Radford were: Carlton, who moved to Kentucky, where he and his family were lost sight of; William II, born May 27, 1787, a prominent citizen of Bedford County and president of a bank in Lynchburg; (it was for his branch of the family that the town of Radford, Va., was named); Mary (Mrs. John Preston); Sarah (Mrs. Wm. Munford); and Marie Antoinette (Mrs. Edmundson), born in 1793, the youngest of the family. ...
