Hello, I am new to the list and I am trying to research the Daniel family of Shenadoah, VA. also trying to find out who the William Daniel was in Loudon county, Va. with wife Ester. Can someone look at this information and see if they reconize anything about this family? Also can you check some tax list looking for William Daniel in Loudon county, VA. Thanks Vickie There is a William Daniel on the 1789 Shenandoah county, VA. Tax >>> list. William Daniel had a wife named Massie William Daniel is on the one that covered the Massanutten Valley (today called Luray >> Valley) and Fort Valley. In general, people who turned in their >> lists on the same day lived close (It's always a gamble to use this >> assumption for a single year - I try to find 3 years), and William >> Daniel was listed on April 18,. There were only a few others on that >> date, so I can only guess that he lived in what is now the southern >> end of Warren County. He is also in the 1783 list, the earliest >> existing list . A deed in Shenandoah Co Deed Book C, p. 242 places >> him owning land in Leeds Manor, with a wife named Massie and perhaps >> having a Jane Farmer, daughter of Daniel Farmer also on that land. sstarks wrote: GOOSE CREEK MONTHLY MEETING Loudon County, Virginia Marriages: The-first marriage-in the meeting was that of Joel Lewis and Sarah Daniel, who appeared before the meeting and made their first declaration of intentions of marriage with each other o^ the 30th of 1st month 1786. In due time they accomplished their marriage in the "good order used amongst Friends" before the full meeting. Their marriage certificate was signed by many witnesses and given to the recorder for record. In extracting the data from the marriage certificates I have shortened the language very much, since it could not be possible to afford the space required to contain the full text of so many marriage certificates with long lists of witnesses, in a printed book of this kind, but all essential wording is contained in my ex­tracts to show as clearly as possible the true identities of individuals, names of parents (when given in the certificate), birth and death dates, places of residence, etc. Here is the essential data of the above marriage certificate! of Joel Lewis to Sarah Daniel: 1786, 3, 9. Lewis, Joel, son of Jehu Lewis and Alice, his wife, of Loudon Go., Va.; m Sarah Daniel, daughter of William Daniel and Esther, his wife, of Loudon Co., Virginia, in a public meeting of Friends at Goose Creek Meeting house, Loudon Co., Virginia before 38 witnesses
