from a posting of the Richmond Daily Whig Trustee's sale of Cosby Property in Albemarle County, Va property situated at Ivy Depot,on the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad in Albemarle a highly productive little farm of 30 acre, immediately at the depot with and excellent and convenient residence upon it, now occupied by Mr. Cosby as a residence Wm. J. Robinson trustee Can someone find either Mr. Cosby or Mr Robinson in the census for that year and possibly see what other members of their families there were. Thank you

There are two Cosby households listed on the 1870 Albemarle census in Ivy Depot. Both are listed as farmers. p. 109 Cosby Jno. N 62 VA Elizabeth J 52 VA Mary S 26 VA Ann M 17 VA James L 16 VA Charles L 13 VA Wm. L 10 VA (Some of the L initials may be S) p. 103 Cosby Wm H 57 VA Sarah F 47 VA Wm G 18 VA Sue Lu 16 VA Charles W 13 VA Linnie B 8 VA Morris W 3 VA Harris Jno G 70 VA no occupation Shackleford John 19 VA farm hand There are no William J Robinsons on the 1870 census. The only Williams are the following: Wm H Robinson Charlottesville, Albemarle, VA abt 1814 Virginia White Male Wm B Robinson Samuel Miller, Albemarle, VA abt 1857 Virginia White Male Wm M Robinson Samuel Miller, Albemarle, VA abt 1856 Virginia White Male I am wondering if this is a sale to satisfy a defaulted mortgage. There should be records in the county courts and/or in the deed records. Hope this helps.
