        Note:
        Frances' brother Courtney C. Norman married her husband "Frank's" sister, Mary Frances Browning.

        In her will dated Nov. 16, 1791 she left everything to her son, Shadrach. Probated September 17, 1792 in Will Book D, page 60.

        From History of the Culpeper County Normans:
        Descendants of this family of Frances Norman and Francis Browning married into the families of Strother, Browning, Willis, Menefee, White, Pendleton, Smith, Duncan, Yates, Bruce, Kerfoot, Lillard, and others. "Greenfield" the ancestral home, in what is now Rappahannock County, has remained for years in possession of the descendants of Frances Norman Browning. John Armistead Browning, Jr. whose mother was Mary Lewis Willis, a great-granddaughter of Betty Washington, is said to have been the last Browning to have lived there. The late Justice George L. Browning of Orange, former member of Virginia Supreme Court, is said to have been the last survivor of the Brownings who were born at "Greenfield."
