    ... Sir Thomas [Lunsford] married in Virginia a third wife. She was Elizabeth, widow of Richard Kemp of "Richneck," James City County. By this marriage he had one child, Katherine, who married Ralph Wormeley of "Rose Gill," Middlesex County (his first wife). In the very old and worn register of the Christ Church parish her death is recorded as follows: "The Honorable Lady Madam Katharine Wormeley Wife to the Hon'ble Ralph Wormeley Esq'r Departed this life 17th of May 1685 & was buried in the Chancell of the Great Church betweene ye Hon'ble Sir Henry Chichely * * * "

    There were two children by this marriage.
    First, Elizabeth, who married John Lomax.
    Second, Katharine, who married Gawin Corbin, but left no issue.

    The old Bible of the Lomax family records her marriage, "married June 1st, 1703, John Lomax and Elizabeth Wormeley daughter of the Hon. Ralph Wormeley and Katharine Lunsford, only daughter of Sir Thomas Lunsford." ...
