Ward of Lubbock, Texas Iberian Publishing Company Athens, Georgia 1999 Taken from microfilm collection of the Virginia State Archives, Richmond, Virginia. Available through Inter-Branch Loan at your local library. When you find the landowner of interest, I STRONGLY suggest you order the microfilm and take a look for yourself. You may discover much more than what is found in the book entry. If there is an error in the publication remarks, you will find that also.

Checking my Scheels map, Thumb Run is located near Crest Hill Road Route #647 northwest of Warrenton, the county courthouse location. We have a similar plantation story; but have not been able to find any evidence for my RITTER/RUTTER family. I notice in the area of Thumb Run the name of STROTHERS. Another story in our family is that they were connected to the STROTHERS family, but I have not found evidence of that yet. I noticed your HILLS were in Licking County, Ohio. My Stephen Ritter/Rutter sold out is property in the early 1830s and moved to Licking County, Ohio founded the Village of St. Louisville in Newton Twp. about 1837. Chocy

Since it looks like they have Stafford County, VA connections, here are the 1815 landowners. HAY, Alexander=4SE. HILL, Elizab; headwater Deep Run; 15SW. HILL, Elizab; in 1816 listed as Elizabeth, elder; headwater Deep Run; 15SW. HILL, Elizabeth, in 1816 listed as Elizabeth SWEATMAN; Rocky Pen Run; 14SW. HILL, Horace; headwater Deep Run; 15SW.

John, The following were landowners in 1815 in Fauquier County, VA. HAYS, Jacob; Crooked Run; 28NW. HAYS, John; Broad Run; 7NW. HILL, Hanah; Thumb Run; 21NW. If you check the Personal Property Tax Lists for Fauquier Co., VA, they would list the number of slaves/blacks each taxpayer owed tax------------you may also pick-up more Hayes or Hills, as people paying personal property tax did not necessarily own land.

Hi June and List, My 2nd great grandparents, Moses Hayes and Ann Hill were married in Coshocton Cnty., OH in 1834. They were both supposedly born in Fauquier Cnty., I know nothing of Ann Hill's family, but have been told that Moses Hayes was the son of Thornton Hayes and grandson of Lebon Hayes Thornton was an overseer on a plantation where Moses was born. I have no documentation for this though, but would certainly like to find some. Moses and Ann were born in 1814 and 1813 respectively. Stories of my grandmother indicate that there were slaves on the plantation. I have also been told that Moses had a brother named Thornton, Any help greatly appreciated.

Diane, I am a descendant of William Hill and Catherine Stacy, to my knowledge I have seen no proof that William or Catherine were related to Benjamin Wood or John Keith.

msealock32@msn.com writes: There SHE purchased a town and name it after herself Anaheim. As you all know Anaheim is still thriving. A nice story, but totally inaccurate. Anaheim, Orange County, California, was largely settled by German immigrants in the 1850's and 1860's. The name Anaheim means "home next to the Santa Ana", referring to the Santa Ana river. Anaheim was incorporated into a city in 1878.

Bilannstrb@aol.com writes: Thomas Marshall and William Marshall were brothers and John Keith was a brother-in-law And if I can recall Fauquier County history correctly without looking it up, they acquired much of the Fairfax Proprietary land and collected the rents owed under the Fairfax leases until selling off most of it -- so they would have been the landlords, not the tenants, in recorded documents.

Diane, Sorry I don't know about Hill or Wood,but Thomas Marshall and William Marshall were brothers and John Keith was a brother-in-law. These three came from the Germantown area and were probably known by the Lee brothers. Bill Stribling

In looking at the deeds of Fauquier County, it seems that John Keith, Benjamin Wood, William Marshall and William Hill all leased from the Lee family and were neighbors, their land they leased bordered one another. It seems these deeds were all dated Oct. 1765. So I assume they are not related in anyway, but being neighbors and leasing next to one another from the same person around the same time they were witnesses for each others leases.

On 12 Oct 1765, John Keith, Benjamin Wood, William Marshall, Thomas Marshall, and William Hill signed, and witnessed each others' "leases for 3-lives" of land on Goose Creek in Fauquier County, from the Lee family. Does anyone know if William Hill, or his wife Catherine Stacy, was related to any of these people? Thank you very much for any info or clues. Diane
