The Morgan Bryan family related to Daniel Boone are on both Augusta CO VA deeds.court and they are in the 1743-1758 Frederick CO VA deeds with Quakers. The Linvilles of Augusta CO VA who marr. Bryans are found 1715 Chester and Chichester twp. Chester CO PA tax lists by Gilbert Cope in his History of Chester CO PA book pub. 1881.

Robert McCoy's family married in to the 1722 Nottingham Andrew JOB family and both os these families are on the 1740s-1750s Augusta CO VA records. Robert McCoy has a 1746 Augusta CO VA will with the New Castle CO DE son-in-laws George Robinson and George Hollingsworth and Nottingham JOBs who marr. into his family. Gilbert Cope in his history of Chester CO PA has the Andrew JOB family bio'd and 2 of Robert McCoys' children are listed married into the JOB family. Iam a desc. of the 1820s KY McCoy family and will continue to look for my connection with these Quaker McCoys. Note: Andrew Job's widow Elizabeth Vernon JOB is on the 1722 East Nottingham, PA tax list with Arthur Barrett his will 1745 Frederick CO VA , Morris Rees bought land in Frederick CO VA from Quaker Thomas Mills & wife Elizabeth Harrold dau. of Richard Harrold & Mary Beals 1722 West Nottingham, PA tax list. Son Jon. Harrold is on the Frederick CO VA deeds . Andrew JOB was a witness in 1695 Birmingham, Chester CO PA deed of Oliver COPE to Robert Pyle. Oliver Cope is on the 1696/97 Brandywine Hundred, new Castle CO DE tax list of Cornelius Empson with the Hollingsworths, Cartmills, Perkins, Babbs, Clouds, Grubbs and others that I posted on the Cope forum. Richard Beeson who marr. Charity Grubb of New Castle CO DE is on the 1722 West Nottingham, PA tax list with Alexander Ross and this man has a 1748 Frederick CO VA will . Charity Grubb's widowed mother Frances marr. 2nd Richard Buffington who is a trustee on the 1697 DE Oliver Cope will. Richard & Charity Grubb Beeson are on the 1740s Frederick CO VA deeds and went to Rowan CO NC where most of the Quakers lived 1750s and 1760s where Morgan Bryan and family are listed. Morgan Bryan & Alexander Ross Quakers from PA obtained a very large tract of land in VA , Jost Hite and Quaker Robert McCoy had a large tract of land in VA, Benjamin Borden a Quaker from Burlington CO NJ sold tracts of land in VA and Jacob Stover reported married to Sarah Boone sister of Squire Boone was very large land partner of Johan Ochs and Quaker Ezekiel HARLAN. Ezekiel Harlan's 2nd wife Ruth Buffington dau. of Richard is at the 21 Nov 1721 Bradford, PA wedding of John Cope & Charity Jefferis. John Cope's neighbor 1715 Bradford , PA is Quaker William VESTAL who is in Orange , Frederick CO VA 1730s and later and his will is 1745 Frederick CO VA. As you can see most of the early big mid to west VA land holders were Quakers . The Frederick CO VA Hites' married into the DE Cartmills and are found the the Quaker McCoys . I can't say that I have info on your listed families but if found with Quakers the records get fantastic for firm and reliable records. David
