Birth:
I found the following records on Basil Riddle, together with others of his family, in Saint Barnabas Church, Queen Anne Parish, Prince Georges, Maryland:
Parents are listed as John and Elizabeth Riddle. The date span between the various children's births makes me doubt that this is all one family. I will put down what I have, for what it's worth. It seems to go along with some of the List messages this week about Jeremian and George Riddle as well as Basil.
Children - parents always listed as John & Elizabeth:
John Riddell b. 25 Jul 1708
George Riddell b. 10 Sep 1710
John Riddle b. 16 Nov 1734
George Riddle b. Jan 1735
