About us



We'll be at the 2016 Brocks Gap Heritage Day! Looking forward to seeing you there!

Currently, we are actively researching the descendants of William Cherryholmes, Sr (born about 1719 in Yorkshire, England, died in Rockingham Co. before 1800). If you are descended from him in any line, please join our project, and get in touch!  There's a large DNA segment shared between several project members that may come down to us from the Cherryholmes family.  Many Brocks Gap people are descended from his granddaughter, Elizabeth Cherryholmes, who was married to Emanuel Roadcap, and there are plenty of William's other descendants we need to learn more about.
