I don't have your Nathaniel in my files but did you think about looking for GREER/GREAR? They are all over the place. And if you Nathaniel's last name is GAER, it is quite possible the info might have been transcribed wrong and you might find something under GREER. Just a thought and good luck Linda In a message dated 8/1/01 6:53:40 PM, [email protected] writes: << I'm looking for information on Nathanial Gaer, possibly Gaer, who was listed in the Orange Co., VA 1790 Census. I am looking for his wife, kids, how he got to VA, was he born there, who his parents were - everything! What his jobs were - was he a Revolutionary soldier?, etc..... I know of one child - and I'm sure there were more - although I don't know how many more. The child I know of is Ransom Gaer who was born 1776, married in 1802 to Mary ? in either Orange or Albemarle Co. They died in the 1860s in Hardin Co, IA. >>
