Maybe what I had read was that these grants were not given as a result of Revolutionary War service. Do you know how these grants were obtained? Thanks.

Becky, You may be correct that the grants were not given as a result of Revolutionary War service. The grants were made by the Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

I believe Nedra answered this question once and I wonder if she or someone else can help me on this. The Day family that lived in Hardy and Pendleton Co. Va. has been a confused one for a long time. I have the 1776 Colonial Census from Frederick Co. Md. showing Leonard Day age 40, his wife Tabitha age 36, and children including Ezekial age 9, Bazel age 5, Samuel age 14, Sarah age 7, Susannah age 11, and Tabitha age 2. I believe this is the Leonard, Ezekial and Bazel that showed up in Hardy/Pendleton co. in the late 1700's Samuel has been up for question. It seems probable that the Samuel who was in Pendleton Co. is this Samuel, however others say he was born 5 yrs. earlier and has a different father. If that is the case what happened to the Samuel in this family? The people that show Samuel moving to Ross Co. Ohio with a different age and father claim Samuel got a Va. land grant (in Pendleton?) for serving in the Rev. War. I believe Nedra on this list said that such land grants did not exist, is this true? Thanks for your help. Becky

Susan - Be careful with that old map of Highland County. I tried finding names from that map (made in 1847) on the census of 1850. It didn't check out. Bill Rexroad Hutchinson, Kansas

I have gotten the films from the Family History Center but, I was wondering if the originals have where the person went to as the ones in the Bath Court House do. It seems that the Sheriff or whoever did the collection of taxes, would make notes in the ledger where he had gotten information from neighbors about the new location that the tax payer had moved to. That is valuable in tracking people who moved to the area for only short periods of time. The ones that I got for Bath from the FHC did not contain all the information the originals had. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 11, 2003 8:42 AM Subject: Re: [WVPENDLE] 1790's & early 1800 PP Tax Lists & Maps > The Mormon Church has all of those records on microfilm...also may want to > check the surrounding counties...such Augusta and Highland.... > > Vivian > > > ==== WVPENDLE Mailing List ==== > Genealogy without documentation is mythology! > >
