The material in
this section is taken from will-books, deed-books, marriage
lists, and other miscellaneous sources of information.
The given names which are grouped under the various surnames
are arranged alphabetically, and are numbered in consecutive
order, except where all the given names belong to a single
household. All statements following a given number and
ending at the next higher number belong to the name
following the first number. Surnames are ordinarily
spelled according to the usage of the present time, but
unusual or doubtful names follow the original spelling.
In those instances where the documentary spelling differs
from the present, the former is also given. The
spelling of given names usually follows that which is found
in the records. In certain instances, two or more
persons named John or Mary may be one and the same
individual, are probably are. But since the evidence
in hand is not conclusive, we have thought it best to treat
such names as those of distinct people.
The special abbreviations used in the present section
are these:
admr - administrator
Aug. - Augusta county
b - born
bro. - brother
c - about or nearly
C - children
d - died
dau. - daughter
dy_ died in youth
g'son - grandson |
k - killed in
battle
m - married
New P. - New Providence
n. c. - no children
unknown - whereabouts unknown
Rbg - Rockbridge county
s - unmarried
post. - unborn at death of father
w - wife |
A date without special mention,
as in "John - 1775," means we have nothing more than the
solitary fact that the John is incidentally spoken of in
connection with the year 1775. A date followed by c,
as "1816c," means that the date is approximate and not
necessarily exact. A date preceded by by, as "by
1810," means that the occurrence preceded 1810, perhaps by a
considerable number of years. The question mark is
used in cases of uncertainty. Thus, "C(?)": means that
the children whose names following semicolon appear to be of
the couple just previously mentioned. "John (?) Smith"
means that a man, known to be a Smith, is believed to have
had the given name John. The word "others," coming
just after a list of children, means that there were still
other children in the family, but that their given names are
unknown. Such a name as "Mary Kirk White," refers to a
widow, whose first husband was a White.
