EPPES. Charles City county.
Arms: Per fesse gules and or, a pale counterchanged, three eagles displayed of the last.
Crest: On a chaplet vert flowered or, a falcon rising of the last.
The above arms are on documents in the possession of the Eppes family and is also engraved on old silver which has been in the family for many generations. The arms correspond with Eppes of Canterbury. Lieut.-Col. Francis Eppes was in Virginia In 1635, bringing with him three sons, John, Francis and Thomas. The Eppes of Prince George are descended from Thom.7,s, through Col.
Peter Eppes, and the Nottoway branch also descend from Col. I Peter. Francis Eppes, son of the immigrant, settled in what is now I Chesterfield. He was born about 1625 and died in 1678. He married Elizabeth, widow of William Worsham of Henrico county, by whom he had four children. The descendants of Col. Francis Eppes are very numerous in Virginia.

Hi Mary Frances,
Thank you so much for responding. I found your tree so helpful and wanted to show my appreciation through a donation. I started my tree 11 years ago and it was a slog, as you know. It must have taken me 20 hours to build it and I had to quit because life got in the way. I'm now getting back into it and found the technology completely changed. However, there is a lot more information out there and I'm using your tree as a baseline for finishing mine. My tree name is: Epps Family Tree_current and my user name is m_atwaterepps1. I'm not sure my line is correct, but according to what I have now, it looks like our ancestors had the same Father: Francis Epps and Mother: Elizabeth Lee . I thought about hiring someone from Ancestry, but it's a lot of fun doing it myself if I can take the time.
Thanks again for your tree to help guide me.
Warm regards.
Margaret Atwater (Mother was Colleen Epps)
