    Possible Fact 
    • From Vicki Miller notes:
      It was in the home of Samuel Overton B:1685 D:before 1725 that Patrick Henry gave his famous speech-"Give me liberty or give me death"
      My note:
      Obviously Samual was not alive in 1775 when the speech was delivered. I am not positive the above is correct, possibly it was his home and a descendant of his was living there at the time. There was a connection, I just haven't found proof of it yet.
