Here is a little of what I found in my notes about Abraham, etc.Abraham, William, John, and Jacob can be found in the Sumner Co., TN Deed book 1793-1805.John is a witness to a deed as late as 1799.William is found in 1795.Jacob is found in 1794 granting land to James Thomas.Abraham is listed most with dates ranging from1793-1797.Some of these transactions also involve Kuykendalls and Youngs.
The citations are too numerous to mention at the moment.If you do not have access to these records, let me know and I will post each individual transaction for you here.
After this time Abraham, Jacob, and John Landers can be found on the 1800 Henderson Co., KY tax list along with Ashby's, Owens, Silas McBy, and Bazleel Wear (another brother of Turner Wier).This is part of the Pittsylvania Co., VA/Caswell Co., NC crew I mentioned earlier.In 1810, Abraham Landers is found on the Hopkins Co., KY census 01201-0120100.In 1815, Clark Landers appoints Abraham Landers his attorney to collect any pay due him from fighting Indians in 1812 in Capt. Washburn's Co.
Do you know who this Clark Landers is?Also, do you have wills or a Bible showing that John, Jacob, Abraham, and Levi are brothers?I have never been able to corroberate their relationship.I have often thought that there might be more than one Abraham Landers of approximately the same age in the area at the same time or at least a father and son.
I will get back to you with more.Let me know what you think.
