HI, just a note to state that I am hot on the trail of Jesse's parents. He came from Prince Edward county VA. Was born about 1755-1760 in Virginia. Married Susannah Jones in March 1777. Surety was posted by Alexander Roberson. Jesse bought land bordered by Isaac Roberson and Zachariah Roberson. There was an Isaac Roberson who died in1759 in Prince Edward and he mentions his sons, Zachariah, Thomas, Alexander, John, and Isaac. He states that upon Zachariah or Thomas' death their portion would go to another brother if they have not heirs. I am assuming then that these two did not have children in 1759, but perhaps Alexander is his father. I will keep digging until we find out! Will keep you updated. Also, I think Susannah is related to Henry Jones of that county. TTFN, Linda Franks --- Linda Franks --- wienerschnitzel@earthlink.net --- EarthLink: It's your Internet.
