Again, thanks Bob.I am certain that Anna was a daughter of James and Lydia Cash Cottrell of Bedford County, VA.They had a son James who went to Pike County, Ohio; a son Stephen who went to Highland County, Ohio; a daughter Elizabeth "Betsy" who m. Daniel McCann and moved to Pike County, Ohio; a daughter Jemima who m. Jacob Wysong and moved to Montgomery Coubty, Ohio the to Preble County, Ohio; a son Thomas who remained in Bedford County, VA.James eventually moved to Ohio and filed a Rev. War Pension application from Pike County, Ohio in 1841.He was 92 on Oct 14, 1840.
