They tend to verify those closely related when someone passes. I also found that marriage records, in some states, give lots of good tidbits. Perhaps that far back, church records might help. And, of course Revolutionary War records could illuminate some information for you. The Library of Virginia has a lot of land grant/sale information you can access online.
