- On the court case with Aaron's murder in Sussex County, VA is this.... AARON BOOTH'S MURDER This is from the 1754-1801 Sussex County Virginia Court Records at page 48:
"At a Court held at Sussex Courthouse on the 31 day of August 1791 for the examination of William HARGRAVE on Suspicion of his being guilty of murdering Aaron BOOTH Present David MASON, Robert JONES, David MASON Jun. and John MASSENBURG Gent.

The minutes of these Proceedings were Signed by David MASON, Robt. JONES, David MASON Jur. Jno. MASSENBURG.' This court record shows a possible 'brother' of Lewis being Richard. The Brittle, Hutchings, Baileys, etc., were all intermarried families with the Windhams and Booths. I have most of the documentation on just who married 'who' but it is very 'round-about'. The Webpage has all the court records and documentations I could find for Aaron. Check it out and see if any of these things give you a further connection. I know we have George Booth further back and that this line is John Ottinger's line. He also has much good documentation on the webpage.
