In 1745 the area now contained in Russell County was formed as a part of Augusta County. Between the years 1769 and 1785 it was contained in Botetourt, Fincastle and Washington Counties. Russell County was formed in 1786 from Washington County. Check out the above site mentioned. At the time I don't know their address, but go to Google search and type in the following: "Russell County, Virginia Genweb" and it should come up. It's a very good genealogical site. Patsy

The following was copied from the Russell Rootsweb site. In 1745 the area now contained in Russell County was formed as a part of Augusta County. Between the years 1769 and 1785 it was contained in Botetourt, Fincastle and Washington Counties. Russell County was formed in 1786 from Washington County. The area which became Russell County contained about 3000 square miles or 1.9 million acres. The boundary lines extended northward from Clinch Mountain to Cumberland Gap on the Kentucky border and eastward to a point near present Bluefield, Virginia. In 1790, the population of the county was 3,338, which included 190 slaves. Other counties were then formed from Russell County. In 1793 Lee County was formed. In 1799, Tazewell County. In 1815 Scott County was formed from a portion of Russell and Lee Counties. In 1855 Wise County was formed and in 1858 Buchanan County was formed. In 1880, Dickenson County was formed from a portion of Wise and Buchanan Counties. ----- Original Message ----- From: joycerussell@tds.net To: VARUSSEL-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, April 15, 2005 12:36 AM Subject: [VARUSSEL] Russell County/ Washington County This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

I have some info on Nancy Jessee, daughter of Fleming Burke Jessee and Mary Polly Browning. Nancy Jessee married James M. Monk Children: Mary E. Monk about 1870 Martha Ann Monk May 1872 Charlie Monk about 1875 Chris Monk about 1877 George Monk born dead 1879 Lonnie Monk Vestor Monk about 1884 Laura Monk about 1886 Perlia May Monk about 1888 According the 1910 census in Fannin, Texas Nancy had 11 children and 7 were still alive. There are 2 more children unaccounted for or they died and weren't named. I found the Lonnie Monk in message boards. I have a picture of Vestor Monk and her husband taken in Whitewright, Texas. If anyone knows her husbands name and her children please let me know. If you would like a copy of the picture just email me at: msh@moment.net . Martha Ann Monk 1872 married Moses Grant Seals 1867 November 18, 1891 in Claiborne, TN Children: William F. Seals 1892 Fannin Co., Texas Charlie Seals 1894 Lonnie Seals 1896 in Fannin Johnny Seals 1900 in Fannin Homer Seals 1901 Dudley Seals 1903 Bailey Seals 1905 Monroe G. Seals 1906 Birdie Seals 1908 Sallie Seals 1910 Moses died in 1910 and Martha Ann married again to James Burke Children: Mattie Burke 1915 Velma Mae Burke 1917-1918 James died in 1929 and I think Martha married someone with last name Davis. On her daughter Birdie's death certificate she is named Martha Davis. I have pictures of some of the Seals family. Moses brother Anderson and his family. I think it is his family. My husband's mother was Birdie Seals and she married a Fry first and then Rufus Lee Holt. If anyone is familiar with any of these names you can email me at the above address. Thank you, Mary Holt
