Children of James and Margaret Ramsey of Augusta County, Virginia [31 March 2016]

Zelpah Ramsey was not a child of James and Margaret Ramsey in the North River settlement of Augusta County, Virginia, and she should not be shown on the James and Margaret Ramsey family page. The source of this misidentification originated some 16 years ago as a hypothetical assignment by a researcher based on the several family alliances formed in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. For the original research based on the Ramsey family history supported and supplemented with primary and secondary sources, see the family history publication "A Ramsey Family History Chronicling the Origins and Known Descendants of James and Margaret Ramsey" published in 2010, and the family history article "From the North of Ireland to the North River of the Shenandoah" published in No. 21, 2005 FAMILIA Ulster Genealogical Review. For a brief overview see the current citation generated on the Zelpah Ramsey page.--Lee Ramsey 19:16, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
