  1. Family Recorded, in Ransdell, William Keith. Sifted from the ashes: thirteen generations of one line of the Ransdell family in America from its first known document until January 2, 1988. (Place of publication not identified: W.K. Ransdell, 1987).

    ... Sometime after Edward's death in 1724, and before February 4, 1729, Amy (Kelley) Ransdell moved from Westmore­land County to her plantation, formerly belonging to Capt. John Kelley. Her Will, dated Feb. 4, 1729, gives her as being of the Parish of Sittenbourne, County of Richmond (#15). In it, she does not name any of Edward Ransdell's children. She does name four of her children by Capt. John Kelley.From that it is concluded that she was not the mother of any children by Edward Ransdell. That indicates that she was beyond her childbearing years prior to 1720, and Edward Ransdell, her husband, was born circa 1660....
