Does anyone on the list know who this grandson, David Holt is? I found this information in the following deed: Cavaliers and Pioneers Abstracts of Virginia Land Patents and Grants Abstracted by Neel Marion Nugent Volume Three 1695-1732 Patent Book 8, page 107 David Holt, 300 acs., New Kent Co; S. side of York River, bet. brs. of ad. river & brs. of Totopotomoys Cr., 2 May 1706, p. 728. Adj. Col. John Page, Esqr; land of Edeward Hawkins & Nicho. Gentry. Granted Samuel Gentry, 21 Oct. 1684, who deeded same to David Crawford, Grandfather of said David Crawford, 5 Jan. 1685, who by deed of gift, dated 28 May 1686, conveyed to sd. David Holt, then & still a minor, the land is granted by order, &c. >From the dates, this must be the first David Crawford, the son of John Crawford??? David Holt was a minor as of 38 May 1686, or under the age of 18 or 21................ Could this mean that there is a Crawford girl, daughter of the first David, and sister to Capt Daivd that we do not know much about???? Is anyone of this line? I find this deed very interesting. Thanks, Mary
I am from John and David but not the Holt line. Donna ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary L.
