The Personal Property Tax lists did not give information about the actual locations of the district. Basically the third district was between the first (northwest section of the county) and the second (southeast section east of Goose Creek) and included the Leesburg area.
The (M.) was not an initial. It no doubt was the abbreviation for Mountain. I'm sure the commissioner knew what mountain it represented but the lists themselves did not explain.
The land was purchased in 1826, but the actual deed was not delivered to the new owner until 1832. That could have been the year when the land was paid in full.
Minute Book 7, 13 June 1826
[p. 309] Letters of Administration granted Hugh SMITH as Admr. with will annexed with Lloyd NOLAND as security and $5,000 bond for estate of Saml. DAVIS dec'd. William DAVIS & Jno. L. DAGG the Exors. named in will by H. B. POWELL relinquished.
The only will recorded for a Samuel Davis in Loudoun is, from "Index to Loudoun Co. Wills 1757-1850" by Hutchison:
DAVIS, Samuel
Book:Page O:270
Date of will: 29 Oct 1821

Bunnell, Elizabeth, Daughter
Dagg, Sarah, Daughter
Dagg, Samuel's child, Gt-Gr-Son
Davis, Samuel, Son
Dagg, John L, Gr-Son
Dagg, Samuel, Gr-Son, lately dec'd.
Davis, Joseph, Son
Davis, James, Son
Davis, William, Son

Davis, Harriet, Gr-Daughter, daughter of William
Powell, Burr, witness
Frey, Philip, witness
Helleard, James, witness
Bitzer, Harmon, witness
Codicil of 13 Mar 1823.
From the above, it may be that this is not correct Samuel Davis.
