VA? parents were William and Anna Shannon Crow. Were Anna and William married in Amherst Co. VA? and then went to Montgomery Co? There is proof they were in Amherst County. Unlikely they were married in Amherst due to Agnes would have been only 14 if all the families left in 1774. Lots more diggin to be done!
