This page features information about one of the most controversial of all Alford ancestors. For years, especially during the 1980's, it was frequently seen: he had three wives and 21 children.
- Family Group Records
- Genealogy
- The genealogy of this Lodwick Alford is fragmented on the Genealogy page. He is first listed as part of the genealogy of his grandfather John Alford (JOH645VA) and then he has a three generation listing identified to his name, and finally under each of his children there are links to the descendants of these children. See them all by going to the link below and scanning down about three screens until you see the outline like arrangement. TAKE A LOOK.
- Will
- Several versions of his will were circulating in the 1980s. Finally, one was found in the North Carolina archives which is considered the official version.
- Timeline
- Published Items
- Our first real look at Lodwick was published in April 1983. (Select NR 3 on the "About Alfords" page.)
- In 1989 it seemed like it was time to take another look at Lodwick, so Gil Alford put together a paper which included most of what was known and what was thought to be known about several Lodwick Alfords. That nine page paper was sent to several associaties for their review and comment. Listed below is the original unmarked-up paper as well as marked-up copies from some of the associates who responded (still being scanned and processed). Next came a presentation about Lodwick at the 1990 Raleigh meeting by Christie Alford Baldwin. She later "reduced" the presentation to a book which is being scanned to add here.
