  • Notes 
    • James Jr. bought 194 acres from Josiah Ballinger in Frederick Co., VA, a son of Henry Ballinger Sr. about 1750. James moved across the Blue Ridge mountains during the French and Indian Wars to Guilford Co., NC and were members of the New Gardens MM. They moved back to Frederick Co., VA in 1762. He and his wife had 9 children. (C-624,759,956) It is often listed that he had a second wife named Pheobe, but this is an error. It's his son, James that married Pheobe Parkins. (C-2034, E)
