Hi List, I new to the list but not to Genealogy and my main research are the Quakers who moved into Frederick CO VA 1730s and later. I have found so far that many of the families listed there 1730s and later came from 3 areas' and they were PA,NJ and DE. The counties with Quakers in VA came from Burlington CO. NJ, Chester CO PA and New Castle CO DE . The Cope family lived in New Castle CO DE 1690s and in Chester CO PA 1712 and later. One branch of these Copes' were Quakers' in DE and PA . The other missing Cope that Iam working on is William Cope who moved from Chichester, Chester CO PA 1729 after selling his land in New Castle CO DE at that time. Gilbert Cope ( 1840-1928 ) who is in the Genealogy Hall of Fame in Arlington, VA wrote a book on the History of Chester CO. PA & Bio-Sketches pub. 1881. I found many of the Frederick CO VA Quaker families in his book and many of them are on his 1715 twp, Chester CO PA tax list and listed inQuaker, Deed books and wills for New Castle CO DE. I have sent several 1000 emails to the Cope-L@rootsweb.com mailing list since 1998. I found many families in Frederick CO VA have links to the Quaker Daniel BOONE and related families. I found links for 4 early KY Forts related the to the Quakers and they are FT. Boonesborough, KY, FT. Strode, FT. Ruddell and Bryan's Station, KY 1780s. The Copes' were Quakers and the Boones' were Quakers and sure enough I found links for these 2 KY Cope and Boones. David C. Cope of CA

David, do you believe the Quakers of that era had a different migration route than the others that ultimately came down into Eastern VA and Western WV of that era? I have 3 separate non-Quaker lines that came into that area 1720-50 era: WILSON & CHRISTIANs into Augusta Co; MCCAULEY, MARQUIS & COLVILLE into Opequon Cr area adjoining S Winchester, Frederick Co; and the ZEH/SEE clan into Hardy Co, WV. Could you comment on research sources of that era in New Castle Co, DE?
