I would like to find out more information on Zachariah Averett born 4 Nov 1769 Halifax Co., VA to the parents James and Elizabeth Averett, Sr.
Zachariah Averett first married Mary Polly Williams Tindall in 1792 in Elkins, Randolph Co., VA. Their children were: Howard W. b: 24 Oct 1793 (my line); Matthew b: 25 JNov 1794; Jared b: 1797; Lucy Ann b: 1797; Johnson b: 25 Feb 1799; Weston Jones b: 24 Oct 1801; Sarah W. b: 14 Feb 1805; James T/J b: 1 Aug 1803; Mahala ( Mashala) b: 8 Mar 1809 & Anderson Boyd b: 11 Sep 1812.
Zachariah second married Mary Ann Waltrip on 9 Mar 1813, and they had one vchild Madison b: 8 Mar 1818.
I am looking for stories of Zachariah's life and KY with the Waltrip family, and why in some of the censuses he's listed as Zachriah Waltrip with the birthdate of Zachariah Averett? Zachariah was an ordained Baptist Minister and after leaving the church began his how Church of Christ in Clay County, MO. along with his son Howard who was also an ordained minister. The last name AVERETT was changed to EVERETT in 1822 by Howard and some of his siblings changed and some remained Averett's, Zachariah changed his to EVERETT.

I am looking for information on any Averett's in the Charles Parish, York County VA area from 1723 thru 1830. I belive that the sir name was Avery pryor to 1723.
James Averett was born 11 Dec 1723 Charles Parish, York County, VA ; he married in about 1759 to Elizabeth (last name unknown) ; he died about 1820 in Halifax County, VA. They had several children all born in VA.
James Averett, Jr born about 1764 Elkins, Randolph County, VA
William Averett born about 1766 Brunswick County, VA
Jess Averett born about 1766
Zachariah Averett born 4 Nov 1767 Halifax County, VA; died 24 Nov 1843 Clay County MO.
Jemima Averett born about 1769
Elizabeth Averett born about 1771 Elkins, Randolph County, VA
Patsy Averett born about 1775 Elkins, Randolph County, VA
William Averett born 1776 Brunswick County, VA
I believe that James' parents were:
Thomas Avery born 8 Jun 1697 Charles Parish, York County, VA; married before 1722 to Sarah Mary Tanner (born about 1700); Thomas died about 1757 Lunenburg County, VA. Their children were: Elizabeth b: 1722; James b: 1723; thomas b: 1727; Henry b: 1729; William b: 1731; Isham b: 1737; Sarah b: 1737
Thomas's parents could have been: James and Catherine Avery of Charles Parish, York County, VA. James and Catherine's children could have been:
Mary b: 1689; Ann b: 1691; John b: 1694; Thomas b: 1697; James b: 1700; Catherine b: 1704. All born in Charles Parish, York County, VA.
James Avery could be the son of William Avery/Avory born about 1650, unknown place
Any help with this line would really be appreciated greatly.
