Before I provide you with what corrections I have (in another post), I would like to ask what your sources are for John Anderson and Rebecca May Arnold? BTW, I'm a descendant of John Anderson (Wife Mary, BROTHER of Jacob) who settled in Grayson County, VA in the late 1700s. My Anderson family 'lore' says that the brothers, John and Jacob, were sons of a John and May Anderson who came from the New Jersey side of the Delaware River Valley (was New Sweden). John, the father, first settled in the area that would eventually become Grayson Co., VA, but then bought land in Wilkes Co, NC and moved to there, passing away about a year later. Be aware that for some reason (too many John Andersons in the time period, probably) researchers mix-up this Anderson family's lore with the Andersons that built the Block House in Abingdon, VA. You can find my name attached to several items contributed to the Grayson County section of http://www.NewRiverNotes.com. Note that a number of John and Jacob Anderson's descendants hang out at the Yahoo Group 'NCNR': http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ncnr/ BTW, even if you don't want to join NCNR you can still search for Anderson info in their message archive. Some of the Anderson info I can share with you is already there. - Paul B. Anderson FCCS (USN, Retired) Kingsport, TN native living in Norfolk, VA
