I could use all the help on Barnett Swart I can get! He has been a brick wall for me for some time. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. ----- Original Message ---- From: Eleanor Brundick <ebtalbott@verizon.net> To: valoudou@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, February 7, 2008 1:29:34 PM Subject: [VALOUDOU] Swart Family The Swart name is Dutch. The Adrian Swart family that settled in Fauquier and Loudon Counties can trace their ancestry back to the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam in the early 1600's. From there the family moved to New Jersey and then to PA and in the late 1700's Adrian Swart and his family settled in Virginia. Within a couple more generations most of them had moved west from Virginia. The name Adrian was passed down through the family. The Swart name was sometimes spelled Swartz or Swarts. My husband's ancestry goes from Adrian Swart to Barnett Swart to Catherine Swart Smith to Adrian Smith. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The First Sunday in each month will set aside for a "Brick Wall" Roll Call.
