[from a pdf file from the web on Joseph Summerfield]. . . We don’t know how long he was in jail, but we do know that he married Abigail Grubb White (Thomas’ widow) in 1802. He had previously been married to Winnie Nelson and they had six children. Around the time he was in jail, Winnie had an affair with another man and ran off with him to Kentucky where they stayed for several years...

2.Thomas Summerfield, Sr. and Joseph Summerfield were brothers.  They both just "popped up" in Pendleton Co. region in the early 1770's.  No one has yet found where they came from. Thomas was born about 1750.  Joseph was b. bef. 1761; he was on the muster roll of Augusta Co., Va. Militia for 1779 and was over 18.  There is evidence that Joseph was in the Battle of Point Pleasant in 1774; in this he had his right hand shot off.  In the 1787 Census of Rockingham Co., Va. , Joseph was living next to his father in law John Nelson as indicated by Morton's Pendelton History.
Nearly all of the Summerfields of Randolph Co., are descendants of Joseph Summerfield. Joseph's first wife (unknown)  must have died, and he supposedly married Winnie Nelson. During this time  they were living in Pendleton Co.  About 1800 Winnie began "fooling around" with John Lambert, Jr. and in 1801 Winnie had a son named Caleb and Joseph must have known that Caleb was not his son.  John and Winnie ran off to Tennessee for about 10 years in 1802. Joseph married his third wife Abigail White the widow of Thomas White, Sr.

According to a Book " Bonded Passengers to America." Thomas and Joseph were tried for stealing a silk waistcoat in England.  They were shipped to America for their punishment.

According to " Pendleton Co., WV., Court Order Book #3 Pg. 286 1794-1800
    At a Court Called and held by the Justices of Pendleton County on Friday the 15th day of November 1799 for the trial and Examination of Joseph Summerfield on Suspicions of Felony-

HI TAMMIE,
SOUNDS LIKE WE MAYBE RELATED. I AM SEARCHING THE THOMAS SUMMERFIELD, BROTHER OF JOSEPH. I HAVE INFO ON JOSEPH, BUT NOT THEIR PARENTS. THEY CAME TO AMERICA BECAUSE THEY STOLE A SILK WAISTCOAT AND WERE SENTINCED TO SHIPMENT TO THE COLONIES. THE LISTING SAY: THOMAS AND JOSEPH SENTENCED TO TRANSPORTATION STEALING WAISTCOAT AT OLD SWANFORD LENT 1765 WORCESTERSHIRE. FROM THE RANDOLPH COUNTY WEST VIRGINIA HISTORY-FAMILIES P. 143-144. THOMAS & JOSEPH WERE BROTHERS. THEY BOTH JUST "POPPED UP" IN THE PENDLETON COUNTY REGION IN THE EARLY 1770"S NO ONE HAS YET FOUND WHERE THEY CAME FROM. THOMAS WAS THE ELDER BROTHER, BEING BORN ABOUT 1750. JOSEPH WAS BORN BEFORE 1761; HE WAS ON THETHE MUSTER ROLL OF AUGUSTA CO., VA MALITIA FOR 1779 AND WAS OVER 18. THERE IS EVIDENCE THAT JOSEPH WAS IN THE BATTLE OF POINT PLEASANT IN 1774; IN THIS BATTLE HE HAD HIS RIGHT HAND SHOT OFF IN THE 1787 CENSUS OF ROCKINGHAM CO., VA. JOSEPH WAS LIVING NEXT DOOR TO HIS FATHER-IN-LAW, JOHN NELSON.
NEARLY ALL OF THE SUMMERFIELDS OF RANDOLPH COUNTY ARE DESCENDANTS OF JOSEPH. JOSEPH'S FIRST WIFE (NAME UNKNOWN, MUST HAVE DIED, AND HE SUPPOSEDLY MARRIED WINNIE NELSON. DURING THIS TIME THEY WERE LIVING PENDLETON CO. ABOUT 1800 WINNIE BAGAN "FOOLING AROUND" WITH JOHN LAMBERT, JR. IN 1801 WINNIE HAD A SON NAMED CALEB AND JOSEPH MUST HAVE KNOWN THAT CALEB WASN'T HIS SON. JOHN AND WINNIE RAN OFF TO TENNESSEE FOR ABOUT 10 YEARS. IN 1802 JOSEPH MARRIED HIS THIRD WIFE ABIGAIL WHITE, THE WIDOW OF THOMAS WHITE, SR.

I HAVE FOUND ONLY 5 CHILDREN OF JOSEPH AND WINNIE.
1.SARAH 1787 M/JOSEPH ROY, JR.
2.THOMAS SUMMERFIELD II 1790 M/MARTHA GRAGG, ANNA RAINES
3. MARY 1794 M/ ADAM SNIDER
4. MARGARET 1796 M/ ABRAHAM WOLFORD
5. JESSE 1799 M/RACHEL JORDAN.

I HOPE THIS IS A HELP AND NOT JUST A REPEAT OF WHAT YOU HAVE. THOMAS IS MY GGGGGF. WHERE DO YOU FALL IN JOSEPH'S LINE. I AM ALSO LOOKING FOR MORE CHILDREN OF THOMAS AND ELIZABETH ROY, SHE IS THE DAUGHTER OF JOSEPH ROY.

Line of James B. (1806-February 16, 1851), who married Susan Nelson.

JAMES B. LAMBERT, third son of John Lambert and Winnie Nelson Lambert, was a teacher and minister of the United Brethern Church. In addition to his rare mental endowment, he possessed a great physical strength, having weighed about two hundred and fifty pounds. No culprit dared to interrupt a school or religious service over which he presided.
About a year before his death he became a victim of typhoid. Although having recovered from this illness, as a result of it he soon developed an abscessed hip which was the immediate cause of his death. While filling a ministerial appointment in the German Valley, Pendleton County, Virginia his physical strength suddenly broke. For treatment and care he was taken to the home of Joseph Lantz, one of his parishioners. Here a few days later he passed away, and was buried in the Hinkle-Lantz Cemetery, Pendleton County. The following inscription marks his tombstone:
"J. B. Lambert
Died Feb. 16, 1851
Age 45 yrs.""
