Seeking to share information about ZEBULON and Jane THARP who lived south of Winchester, VA in the mid-to-late 1700s (near the intersection of Cooked Run and Stephens Run). Zebulon's will is on file in the Frederick County Courthouse (dated August 1, 1780). Zebulon's will names a son ANDREW. The will indicates this Andrew had a daughter Elizabeth, who was to receive Andrew's bequeathed property upon Andrew's demise. Other sons named in Zebulon's will include Isaac, Joshua and John, Benjamin and Zebulon. Zebulon (who married Jane) was born in Middlesex County (Piscataway/Woodsbridge) NJ, son of Thomas Tharp (the 3rd generation Thomas), according to a very detailed family chart given to me by Joan Tharp of California. My line of Tharps in Ohio begins with ISAAC Tharp, who married Magdelene SWISHER in Hardy County, VA (now WV), and moved to Licking County, Ohio in 1822. Isaac was son of JOHN and ELIZABETH Tharp. Elizabeth's will is on file in Hampshire County, dated 6/24/1843 and probated 8-28-1863. Isaac had a brother named Solomon who married Hannah RUCKMAN, and two sisters. Sister Ann married Caleb EVANS on 1-2-1826. A handwritten family tree shows that John Tharp's father was Andrew. Mike Tharp of Kansas City (who descends from Solomon, brother of my line Isaac), has original family documents, including a parchment paper that simply has the name Andrew Tharp, born the twelth day of March, 1727. Mike also has a document showing that Andrew pledged allegiance to the Common Wealth of Virginia on the 4th day of October, 1777. So.....I am trying to either prove or disprove that my line Andrew Tharp is son of Zebulon and Jane Tharp of Frederick County, Virginia. Other area surnames connected with the THARPs are EVANS, BEEM, SWISHER, STOVER.
