I only had a few minutes. 1792 James Farmer m. Elizabeth Arthur 1814 Thomas Farmer m. Elizabeth Strong 1823 Wilson Farmer m. Elizabeth Moss 1827 Barnabas Farmer m. Nancy Willard 1829 Sydnor Farmer m. Mahala Kirby I scanned the index at least to 1850 and did not find any Benjamin Farmers. I also checked my wife's Farmer & Field book and did not find any Benjamin Farmers. My wife was a Farmer and she is in the line of that book. There are many Campbell County Farmers in that book. Don't count this as the final word, I could be wrong. Tim Witt,

Hello Everyone, I'm new to the List and have ancestors, who were in Campbell Co. VA in 1780's. The following is the Will of Robert Simpson (my 3rd great grandfather) Robert gives the plantation where he lives to his wife and daughters (not named) for their natural lives and after wife's death to be equally divided between all my children (not named). I give and bequeath my young mare to my youngest son, Robert Simpson (my 2nd great grandfather). It is my desire that my other mare and tools remain on my plantation for the support of my family with my stock of cattle of every kind except one cow which I give to my youngest son, Robert Simpson, when he arrives at the age of maturity. Executors: James Dixon and William Dunwoody Witnesses: John Willson Owen Franklin James Dunwoody Now, at the probate, proved in court by the oaths of John Willson and Owen Franklin, two of the witnesses. The will was ordered to be recorded and on the motion of Sarah Simpson, widow and re-elect of the said decedent who made oath thereto certificate is granted her for obtaining Letters of Administration on said decedent's estate and the will annexed giving security upon she and James Fitzpatrick, James Campbell and William Simpson, her securities. They entered into a bond of 200 pounds for the said administrix. James Dixon and William Dunwoody the executors refused to take upon themselves the burden of the execution thereof. Test: Robert Alexander, Clerk of Court of Campbell. Robert made his will June 11, 1781 in Bedford Co.,Va and when he died, he was living in Campbell Co. on the same land. which was 100 acres L-50; on Naked Creek, bounded by Dixon's line. There is among other questions, why Sarah purchased this land when Robert left it to her in his will? It seems she wanted the plantation intact and to herself to raise her children on. According to VA law, she was only entitled to 1/3, so there must have been grown children, who would have benefited as well. Sarah, I think was a second wife for Robert, as he has a son, William, who was born in 1757 or 8 at Indian Camp on the Catawba. As you can see, there are many interesting people in this will. I have tried to research each one of them to find more about Robert. I didn't find Robert, but did find that most of these men were from PA from Cumberland or the Conocoheague. Some of them, I suspect went to N.C., but I haven't had much success in that area. Would appreciate any and all information and thoughts that you might have.on this family. Sincerely, Bonnie Simpson Valko [email protected]

I have a Samuel Walker b. est. 1780-90 m. Nancy (Wilsen?) died 1819 in the Iredell/Davie Co., NC area. Possible brother is Lee Walker of Rowan Co., NC. There was a Richard Walker b. Davie Co., NC in 1797 and moved to Wilkes Co., NC by 1830. The names William and John also appear in Davie Co. with birthdates from a similar time frame (siblings?). Everyone seems to be at a deadend on these Walkers. My ggggrandfather moved to the Ashe Co. area of NC about 1880-82. I'm wondering why he chose that area. Was there a family connection there?

Hi, Do you know what rank your George Smith was? There are a series of regimental histories on most of the Virginia Units that you can access. I have found Campbell men in the 2nd VA Cav. The histories have a list of the members in the units. They are not 100% correct, my husband's ancestor is buried in Naruna and the book has him in Roanoke. In fairness to the author the first and middle names are close and the last name is common. Will be glad to look up your ancestor one day at work next week. We have a full set of the unit histories. Let me know what unit if you know it. If not any dates would help to make sure I get the right one. Marilyn Jackson Marilyn
