I am seeking information on the ANCESTORS of Adam Muller who settled near Elkton, Rockingham County, Va. It is known that he was baptized 17 Nov. 1703 at Schriesheim (Germany) and was the son of Johan Peter Muller and Maria Margaretta ???? of Lambsheim, but I have found no information about his parents, his grandparents, his Mother's maiden name or names of his brothers and sisters or other relatives that may also have come to America. Rumor is that one sister came with him, but I am uncertain of her name or who she married.

I am looking for parents, siblings of: Nicholas GWIN and Rebecca SMITH (of German origin) Nicholas GWIN - b. 10/20/1798 in PA, moved to VA as young child, was a cooper by trade, d. 9/1868 in Warren Co. IN Rebecca SMITH - b. 11/20/1802 in VA (possibly, Rockingham Co.), d. 10/7/1857 in Warren Co., IN Nicholas and Rebecca were married 3/3/1827 (possibly in Rockingham Co., VA). After their marriage, they moved to Greene Co. OH. Two children were born there: George Smith GWIN, b. 1/3/1828, and Daniel Steen GWIN, b. 8/25/1829, d. 4/14/1908 in Benton Co. IN. Family then moved to Warren Co. IN, where other children were born: Francis M., Margaret, Nicholas, & Rebecca A. If anyone has any connections to this family, please reply.

Published by author, 725 Orchard St., Fairfax, VA, 1961. Does anyone know about this book or of the author?

Posted on: Rockingham Co. Va Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Rockingham/370 Surname: ------------------------- I have amended my message to Bill Derrow privately, but you will probably benefit from it. I believe the FTM CD was my information and I have since found out that I made a mistake in transcribing. There is a book entitled Shadowed by the Massanutten by Willam Good starting on page 288 states the lineage of John and Franey Sharkey Bull. It brief information on these two, then starts on the family of Henry Charles Bull and continues on with the rest of the children. It is a well researched book that has a lot of back ground information as it states each child (including a lot of photos). Finally on page 294, after child 8 (Ida Bell Bull), it states: "1850 Census Rock. Co. Frances Bull 42f Ruth A. Bull 23F William C. Bull 21M Henry Bull 19M John H. Criegler 2M And then goes on:"It appears her husband John died before the census. Frances died Feb 2 1886, aged 79 yrs, 4 mos, 4 dys." "William C. Bull, m. Aug 9, 1952 to Hannah Knopp, b. 1832, d. May 13 1894. da. of John and Margaret. No infor on Ruth A. Bull." Upon checking my group sheet records, I noticed a great discrepancy on when William was born and on when Henry was married. It appears that William and Henry are brothers with the parents of John and Franey (Frances) Shirkey Bull. You should also look up the information in the Book Rockingham County Men in Gray, Volume one on page 55. It gives the Civil War information on both Henry and William Bull including their wives, children, units they served in, etc.
