I am researching the HOUSDEN surname. 1 John George ..+Sarah Housden m: June 15, 1811 Shenandoah County, Virginia Father: Benjamin Housden Mother: Nancy When Sarah married John George they seemed to fall off the face of the earth. Recently I have come across a John George who served in the Civil War from Shenandoah County, Virginia. He is the son of a John and Sarah George. I have no earthly idea if he is the son of MY John and Sarah HOUSDEN George Any light anyone can shed on this would be greatly appreciated. I have a great deal to share on the rest of the HOUSDEN family. I am cross posting this to both the Shenandoah and George lists.
