Hello, Does anyone have any information at all on these folks? I'm beginning to wonder if my JOSEPH GILMORE might be one of their children. A dear distant cousin went to the Clayton Library in Houston yesterday and copied some Gilmore information for me. She scanned it and sent it to me today, so there may be some scanning errors. Here is one of the items she sent: pp. 231-233 THIS INDENTURE made this sixth day of September one thousand seven hundred and sixty two Between HENRY CARTER of the Parish of Prince Ann in the County of Albemarle of the one part and JACOB CLEAVELAND of the aforesaid Parish & County Witnesseth that for the sum of eleven pounds current money to him in hand paid (Henry Carter) doth sell unto Jacob Cleaveland his heirs one certain parcel of land containing seventy acres lying on the Branches of the South Fork of Hardware River in the Parish & County aforesaid bounded Beginning at Pointers in JOHN GILMORE line and running new lines North & West crossing a branch to a chesnut South &West to a red oak South &East to pointers North & East crossing the North & South Fork of Mettle Branch to a red oak and North twenty and an half degrees East with said JOHN GILMOREs line eighty poles to the first station. Presence JOHN FOSTER, Henry Carter ELI CLEVELAND, JOHN HENSLEE At a Court held for Albemarle County the ixth day of September 1762 This Indenture Memorandum & receipt were acknowledged by Henry Carter party thereto and ordered to be recorded. *** In a deed of gift to his son, Joseph described his land as: he lying on the North and East of the public road leading from Rock Fish Gap to the Town of Warren on James River. His wife, Frances EUBANK GILMORE, was the daughter of Hannah and John EUBANK. In Rev. Woods' book, History of Albemarle Co., there is a write-up on John Eubank: "Families of the Eubank name have lived along the south fork of Harware from the earliest times. They sprang from two brothers, George and John. It is believed they came from Orange County." Frances and Joseph's daughter, Elizabeth GILMORE, married John WEATHERRED, whose mother was Agnes SUDDARTH, daughter of Patience SUMTER and James SUDDARTH. Rev. Woods states: "William and James Suddarth were early settlers in the county. They were undoubtedly brothers. They and their descendants were located on the south fork of Hardware between the Cross Roads and Covesville." I may be wrong, but it sounds to me as if Jane HEARD and John GILMORE lived near the Suddarths and the EUBANKs, which was also where Joseph GILMORE lived. This makes me think that perhaps Joseph was their son. I cannot find any other GILMORE in Albemarle Co. during that period. There were GILMERs, but no GILMOREs. If anyone has any information on Jane HEARD and John GILMORE, would you please share it with me. I'll be happy to share what I have. Thanks, and have a great weekend.
