    1. Re: [VACULPEP] Quakers in Culpeper?
    2. Hi Jim, Do you know the parents of Abigail HAINES? My husband's HAINES line from Culpeper is incomplete and I'd love to fill in some of the gaps. Any help would be appreciated, Linda Cashen Gaunt In a message dated 3/1/2009 7:49:20 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, jnturner@earthlink.net writes: My 3rd Gr Grandfather, Samuel Turner, married a Quaker girl, Abigail Haines, in Culpeper Co. in 1793. She was part of a several family group of Quakers who moved into the Culpeper area from the Burlington Co., NJ area around 1773. The records of Evesham Monthly Meeting in Burlington Co. reflect a request by the her Haines family to transfer membership to the Hopewell Monthly Meeting in Virginia. At that time, the area of jurisdiction of the Hopewell MM included several counties in the VA Northern Neck region, including Culpeper Co. Later, as more and more Quakers moved into the area, the area of jurisdiction was broken up and there was at least one Monthly Meeting in Culpeper Co. Most of the Haines family in Culpeper Co. moved to Columbiana Co., Ohio around 1804. If you haven't already, look at William Wade Hinshaw's Encyclopedia of Quaker Genealogy. It is commonly available in genealogical libraries and on CD.
