It is my understanding that at some point all three counties were one county and the three were formed as separate counties in VA and NC.I am trying to determine the dates and more specific details regarding this.
I will be posting further info regarding William Halsey Jr. soon or I could send what I have to you direct if you would like rather extensive info including photgraphs,etc that will take you to England and the ancestral home of this line of Halseys.
William Halsey Jr born 23 May 1766 Columbia New Jersey
died 21 Feb 1832 Piney Creek, Alleghany Co., NC
married Rachel Cobb b 1762 Schooley, NJd 3 Nov 1780 Piney Creek ( have photos of grave stones in PIney Creek cem)
of their many children your Rachel Persilla was b 26 Apr 1787 Piney Creek, Alleghany, NC and I have her as possibly died on 2 May 1862 Downs twnshp McClean IL however have no sources for this fact.
William and Rachel were my 5th great grandparents on my father's side.
At present I am compiling my various bits of info into a fuller historical "picture" but I can send you what I have pre- organized. :)
