Did David die in Albemarle?> Janelle, David died in Henrico County in July 1850 from cholera. Pleasant was in Chesterfield County in the 1840 census. William Thompson I believed died in Hanover County between 1851 and 1859. No info on Samuel B. Via. Edmund Via Jr - I believe he is one of the sons that died between 1810 and 1820. Gideon was in the 1850 Henrico County census. No further info. Burwell Campbell Via most likely died in Page County, Virginia between 1900 and 1910. Henry Via - no info James Via - last I have is the 1880 Henrico County, Virginia census. Joel - last I have is the 1880 Henrico County, Virginia census. <For Harrison and Edward to have gone to Albemarle to train under James H., the "master coachmaker" seems to indicate that the somewhat distant cousins had stayed in touch, doesn't it?

I cannot find James H. after the 1860 Albemarle County census. Harrison seemed to waver back and forth. He was in the 1860 Albemarle County census. 1861 he enlisted in the Confederacy and fought and was wounded at the battle of Cold Harbor. 1865 Harrison married Matilda Hare in Lynchburg, Virginia. 1870 he's in the Albemarle Co., Virginia census H.
