• Notes

  James was disowned from the Quaker church in 1772 for "profane singing and dancing and offering to lay wagers." His wife and children remained in good standing. In 1773 he moved south into Bush River after his mother, Ann, remarried as Pugh. By 1777, he sold this land and he, and his family removed back to Hopewell in VA. They had at least 7 children. Their daughters names all included the name Ann. (C-1959)
