Welcome back Norm,
On the 1930 census for Louisa County are a number of WADDY families who were originally entered as “White” by the census taker and that entry was then changed, probably at the State Registrar’s Office, to “Neg”. I think this means that the census taker thought they were white but their surname was on Plecher’s list so it was changed.
Anyway, I’d need some dates or approximate decades that your John Waddy and Rosa Hughes lived/died, in order to run them down. Can you provide any additional info on them?
