Burckholder 1774, Virginia
Anyone searching Burkholder in VA? Just as a matter of information while searching other lines I came across one Lawrence Burckholder listed with one Ustis Lisdale on a 1774 tithables list in Pittsylvania Co., VA.
Since then I came across a later reference to a Burkholder in neighboring Henry Co.(cut from Pittsylvania Co. in 1777)who was involved in a court action there. I was very much surprised to find Burckholder in VA that early. I was under the impression they were only in PA, GA and SC by that time. I descend from the Georgia immigrant Michael Burkhalter of Lutzelfluh, Switzerland.
