To the list, I am new to the list and wanted to post my brick wall. I am looking for a George Bruce whom I believe to be a brother of William Bruce who died in Giles Co in 1813. There was a deed in Albemarle Co VA that stated "presented at a court held for Montgomery Co on seventh day of November 1797" between George Bruce and William Bruce. This deed recorded the sale of property in Albemarle Co from George to William. I have been unable to obtain a copy of this deed for signature comparison. It has been stated, but not proven that I am aware of, that George was from Albemarle Co., went to Montgomery Co to visit William and died while he was there. To my knowledge, no one has found any record of George's death or burial. I believe his death would have been shortly after the transfer of this deed, probably within the year, and may have been what prompted George to visit William. My question is: Does anyone have any record or information concerning this George Bruce? I am particularly interested in obtaining a copy of this transaction to compare signatures to see if he is my George Bruce or not, and documenting his death. Many, many thanks for any assistance you can give. Bea (Bruce) Hudson
