Hello All, My brickwall is Samuel Patterson of Augusta co. VA. Samuel was probably born around 1740. I have an old family document which suggests he came to Augusta from around the area of Freehold NJ. He wife was Martha Ledgerwood. He had a son named William, and William married Sally Steele on Oct. 15, 1794. Ernest Thompson

My wall is Charles Patterson and wife Mary from Sevier County TN. Charles was b abt 1788-90 Mary b 1790. Census records for their daughter Pricilla say that her parents were born in TN. Charles died before 1850 and Mary died sometime between 1855 and 1858 when their land was sold and the remainer divided between 3 of their daughters Priscilla Lafarlett (mine), Elizabeth Naughers, and Nancy Russell. There was another daughter living at home in the 1850 census with Mary and the unmarried Elizabeth: Matilda b1832. It also appears that there were 2 other children in this family : Chenessa Edmonds (wife of Brice) and John Patterson. Pricillia moved with her husband Jeremiah Lafarlett (Lafollette) to Marshall County Al in about 1848. Chenessa and Brice Emonds along with John Patterson also moved to this same county a short time later. Thanks Linda Davis
