Hi all, This is my first post to the Charlotte County, Virginia mailing list. In an attempt to possibly help those who are struggling finding certain persons in Charlotte County or wanting other documentation on ancestors, I am submitting all the buyers at John Fears' estate auction held October 26, 1827. I am not very good at translating; therefore, if you recognize a name whom I have destroyed, please let me know. The following buyers at the auction are James Fears, Jordren Middleton, Thomas Garrette, Pleasant Eudarley, Gideon Brooks, Robert Robinson, Nancy Fears, Travis Perkinson, Elkanah Cheatham, Stimpson Fallin, Joel Gullivant, John Michael, Samuel P. Lodge, Richard Wilson, William Crawley, William Smith, Robert Moore, William B. Price, Thomas P. Hoge, Henry Bedford, Steven Davis, Brookes Perkinson, Susan Graday, and Thomas S. Boulding. The administrator of the estate was Stimpson Fallin. The sale of the property is not recorded until August 5, 1828. (Charlotte County Will Book 6 page 142) I currently have James Fears as John's son and Nancy Fears as John's wife. John Fears had daughters as evidenced by the 1810 and 1820 census but don't know how many for sure. I am hoping that all potential son-in-laws are here. Have not found female Fears marriages in Charlotte County that could be John's daughters. All female Fears marriage during the early 1800s relate to the Reverend William Fears who left Charlotte County in 1821. If you recognize a name and want a copy, please email me your address and I will send it. Gordie
