  1. 9.  Dorotha Handley VIERS Descendancy chart to this point (8.Lieutenant3, 2.Dorotha2, 1.James1) was born in 1757 in ,Frederick, Maryland; died in 1811 in ,Montgomery, Maryland.

    Notes:

    Source from New Family Search Contributor,
    Jeannette Viers Brooks, lists Dorotha Handley
    Dyson as daughter of William Elisha Viers in
    his Will.

    Information researched by Doris Forsyth.
    "Dorotha was born to Capt. William Viers and
    Mary Magruder. Her father, William named her
    for HIS mother - her paternal grandmother. The
    grandmother was Dorotha Hanley Viers, so there
    were two women with the same name.The
    grandmother was born a Hanley and married a
    Viers. The baby girl was given the name of
    Dototha Hanley at birth and her family name
    was Viers.
    The young girl, Dorotha, eventually married
    Zephaniah Dyson and they had 4 children, one
    girl, Anna, and 3 boys. Over the years, and
    somewhere along the Dorotha died - at least
    she was no longer a part of the life of
    Zephaniah Dyson. Zephaniah was a Rev. War vet
    and I've tried to do a DAR entry on him. The
    fact that Zephaniah married a second time in
    1811, when he no longer was a young man, and
    died 3 years later, is recorded information.
    What I am unable to find is what became of
    Zephaniah's first wife - Dorotha Viers Dyson.
    Census records often recorded her as "Dorraty",
    since her name was NOT Dorothy, but one that
    was hard to spell correctly - Dototha.
    Zephaniah and Dorotha Hanley Viers Dyson's
    daughter, Anna married David Reed in West
    Virginia or across the river in Ohio. This
    makes them my 5th gr. grandparents."

    Dorotha married Zephaniah DYSON about 1773 in ,Montgomery, Maryland. Zephaniah (son of Thomas DYSON, Jr. and Mary MADDOX) was born on 15 Dec 1748 in Trinity Parish, Newport, Charles, Maryland ; died in 1816 in ,Ohio, Virginia (now West Virginia). [Group Sheet]
