    3. IMHO, the best county evolution chart was written by G. Lee Hearl of Washington Co, VA. You will want to print this. I cannot research Virginia without it. He is a member of our List. If you find this of value, please let him know. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~harrelld/va__county_chart.htm

    3. Fauquier County was never part of Loudoun County. Loudoun was created from Fairfax County in 1757. Other than a slight boundary correction of about 2 miles on the Loudoun/Fairfax line in the late 1790's, Loudoun's boundaries have remained the same. Fauquier was created in 1759 from Prince William County.

    3. I hope it doesn't cause too much confusion, but I've added a map to my website of the 8 tax districts for 1783 Fauquier. The boundaries are approximations based upon the descriptions given by John Alcock in his supplementary volume to his "Fauquier Families" and information from other sources. They should be fairly accurate. At the very least, the map in general may help some. It's available from the URL given in the tag line below.

Benjamin and John Massie and William Sinklair. 2) A second Thomas Massey paid taxes in 1799 (in addition to above Thomas) (actually pd. by Alexander Keith, Jr.). This Thomas m. 27 Jul 1795 Dolly Graham, widow. Under the entry for Thomas Marshall, the 1000 a. sold (1780) to MAJ. Thomas Massey (New Kent) is at N. Cobbler Mtn, part of a tract purchased of Thomas Turner. Later (1785) the balance of the Turner land (824 a.) is given to his (Marshall's) son John. (However, the Turner land was only 1700 acres, so I don't know where the other 124 acres came from.) North Cobbler Mtn. is probably Little Cobbler as it's known today, since "Little" is north of "Big". However, I have a Deedmapper plot for this tract, and using that with the historical map, the tract appears to be between Crest Hill Road (the east bound) and both the Cobblers (the west bounds), slightly south of where the current VA 17 / I-66 merge is, south of Delaplane. If you have the historical map of Fauquier by Scheel, then look for Crest Hill Road (Rt. 647) so. of I-66 and west of Marshall, and where the words "Dixon Valley" are printed, that is where this 1000a. tract is. It is south of the Oak Hill tract, which is (mostly) just no. of I-66. I couldn't verify the "flat run" notation with anything. However, the land appears to sit on the northwestern part of Carter's Run and the northern part of the East Branch of Thumb Run. Both of these eventually empty into the Rappahannock R.

(2) 2 Thomas Massies in Fauquier ? 1) On 28 March 1780, Major Thomas Massie of New Kent County, VA purchased 1000 acres of Fauquier Co. land from Col Thomas Marshall & wife Mary (Fauquier Deed Bk # 7, pp533) of Fauquier Co. The 1000 acres was described as being "part of the tract on which said Thomas Marshall now resides" and as having been purchased (by Marshall) from Thomas Turner (no date specified). In the metes and bounds of the 1000 acres "....to a stake at the flat branch then West 320 poles....." The Indenture further mentions the rights to all buildings, water courses, etc. While the reference to "water courses" appears to be just boiler plate language, my question concerns the two words "flat branch". With "branch" meaning a small stream (water course), is the term "flat" the proper name of the branch, in this case, or simply a reference to some characteristic of the branch. In case it is a "proper" name, where is the "flat branch" in Fauquier Co and what larger stream does it ultimately flow in to ? Or alternately, where was the 1000 acre tract located geographically in Fauquier County ? 2) c1775 to c1800 there were apparently three Thomas Massies in or around Fauquier Co. a. The Major Thomas Massie (named in item @ 1 above) b. Thomas Massie (probable Father of line "c" below. The Fauquier Co grantee index uses the designation "Sr" in at least one instance). c. Thomas Massie (son of "b" ? ) The first Indenture in the Fauquier Grantee Index for a Thomas Massie is 1775, and the Indenture in # 1 above for Major Thomas Massie, New Kent Co, VA is dated 1780 so "a" & "b" would appear to be two different individuals. I don't research Massies, so is there anyone who can confirm (or deny) that assumption ? Thanks. ______________________________

    3. The two marriages below are the same man. Major Thomas went on to build a sophisticated saw mill on Long Branch which emptied into the Shenandoah River. This river, creek, whatever.. was / is located in Warren Co, near the Clarke County line. Later, it became known as Swift Shoal Mill. ("Annals of Clarke Co", by Mr. Stuart Brown. From memory.. correct me if wrong.) At the time, this was Old Frederick Co, VA. By 1803, Major Thos. Massie sold everything and moved south into (now) Nelson Co, VA.

    3. Thanks for sharing this..!! June has done a masterful job separating the two Massies. I've added a two cents to each one. Just in case some are out there who are just beginning a MASSIE search. There are two different Massie families discussed below. Not unusual; but for a long time, some combined them into one man. Had they tracked their children, they would have realized; but many are too willing to accept a swift appraisal. This deed below is between Thomas Massie of New Kent Co, VA. After New Kent was divided, his estate was probably in Hanover Co. This Thomas Massie was the famous MAJOR Thos. Massie, who served with Washington and was, reportedly, at the Crossing of the Delaware, which we've heard about. The Marriages which follow the deeds, are for another Thomas Massie. They were born about the same time, they both lived fairly close together. Both lived on land on or near Goose Creek at some point. Then both lived on or near the Shenandoah River in (now, Warren Co, VA.) But living in Warren Co. area (Old Fred. Co.) wasn't simultaneous. Both were Millers and farmers. > Fauquier Deeds > > 31 Dec. 1772/1 Jan 1773. Lease & release.
