Of course. It's in my files somewhere since I started keeping info on the Maryland line just in case. If I remember correctly, his name was William Mason (not sure that's right but it's an M name) Vears/Veirs/etc. He's always listed as either William Mason or William M. He and Patsey lived in Mason Co. for many years, selling off parcels of land from her father's war awarded land. Then he suddenly shows up in the same county as Gideon Via. I don't have all the info but then I think he moved to Ohio. Maryland kept wonderful records. The parish records even list children, almost unheard of back in the early 1700s.
