Dear fellow Patton researchers-
As some of you know I have been posting data on my personal website which pertains to the Patton family. I found out this week that I have used up all my free web space and cannot add any new files without setting up a new "domain" which can get a bit costly. Since I am doing this just for fun and to share files I have decided to post some of the plain text files here, so as to free up webspace on my own site.
This has the slight disadvantage that all the formatting is removed so it will take some looking through the files to see if there is anything you could use.
The following is a file of about 56 pp of text dealing with mostly Augusta Co Va and daughter counties, such as Montgomery plus a few others- Albemarle, Fairfax, Frederick, Greenbrier, Monroe, Rockbridge etc. HAPPY HUNTING!
"Va. ref"
Below I have assembled a number of useful sources. They are NOT in as logical order as I would wish but this is a first try. There are about 56 pp of materials here.
Some numbered references first, then alphabetically by county: Augusta Co is found thru about p 21

==========
The above suggest strong link between James and Robert Patton Jr. There is no mention of a Robert Patton Sr. It APPEARS that James Patton was naturalized in 1791, after being named a juror in 1788 but being ineligible to serve. This looks like he was from from the old country, surely Ireland. Who are John, Thomas and William Patton? They all appear first about 1788; are they on tax lists?

1 mile from the Great Hunting Creek Bridge on the Mt. Vernon Road; at one time Spring Bank was part of the West Grove plantation; 1809, Robert Patton posted a $20 reward for the person who ripped down his fences at Spring Bank; 1814, Thomas Lawson advertised for a runaway slave; 1816, Robert Patton, Jr. wanted a sober man well acqainted with farming to work at Spring Bank; 4/1819, sale of a portion of the farm; 1848, description: residence of George Mason, grandson of George Mason of Gunston Hall, "one and l/2 miles from Alexandria lying on and to the east of the Road from that place to Mount Vernon and just at its junction with the southern highway leading to Fredericksburg--contains about 150 acres of good farming land, under new and complete enclusure--some 40 acres in wood, the residue well suited for market gardening or a dairy. On it is one of the best and most extensive brick mansions in this part of Virginia, containing with its wings and basement 25 rooms under one roof: many of them large and elegantly finished. Outhouses of every description, with a three story brick barn, stables, etc. all built of the best materials and in complete repair. The grounds--there is a fine gateway and entrance, are handsomely laid out and planted with trees and shrubbery; abundance of good fruit and an excellent garden, with a spring of water contiguous to the house, celebrated for its copiousness and quality. No place can be more healty... AG: 5/26/1809; 9/19/1809; 4/19/1814/

This was the residence of Robert Patton, Jr. and Ann Clifton Reeder. Ann
evidently died sometime before 1848.

you will note that when I first wrote you about this deed, I thought it was referring to Martha Patton as the wife of James, but after I found out that James Patton, Esquire died in 1824, I realized that this deed refers to the children of James Patton, Esquire and Mary Ann Seymour Slaughter (sister of Eleanor Clifton Slaughter) Patton - evidently, James, Esquire and Mary Ann Seymour Patton were deceased and their children were selling the rights to Clifton to a Thomas W. Herritt. Evidently, Mary Ann Seymour Slaughter Patton, surviving James, Esquire, died intestate by 1828 and their three children James, Helen, and Martha were no longer minors.
Deed Book Y-2, pages 100-102, obtained from the Fairfax Co., VA Archives,
Fairfax Co., VA, District Court:
This indenture made this thirteenth day of August in the year eighteen hundred and twenty-eight, between Walter H.

NOTE- Robert Patton (son of Robt Jr) and Eleanor Ann Patton Mason were not parties to this deed. This deed must have been drawn up to clarify the legal issue of who owned Spring Bank. Apparently Robert, oldest son, inherited but was possibly incompetent to enter into contracts; this second deed apparently lists the other heirs of Robert Patton Jr who were living in 1843.

notes-
(1) Summers has marr. date as 24 June. Wm McD of Greenbrier Co. Consent by Henry,father. Surety by Samuel Patton of Montgomery Co.
This list compiled from Summers Annals which gives ministers but not bond information, plus Kegley Early Adv vol II which was compiled from microfilm of original bonds and several other sources. Kegley seems to give date of bond and Summers the date of marriage- this is not clear. Edward Morgan was a Methodist minister (see Kegley), and Richard Whitt was (I believe) Presbyterian; see Whitt notes.
Samuel Patton was surety for Matilda and Jennet also.
need to add to this list from Kegley! I hand checked some in 2002 at the courthouse-see below

In the courthouse at Christiansburg the early marriages are recorded in a large two-volume record called “Montgomery Co Marriage Register, 1787-1853". In some abstracts this is called Vol. “A” but is not so designated at the courthouse. This register is a handwritten and indexed recent copy of two series of records, (1) the original marriage bonds, showing date of bond, parent(s) of the bride, and security for the bride. This series contains lower numbers. (2) The minister’s returns, showing actual date of the ceremony, but NOT the other information. Often both sets of records survives for each marriage, sometimes only one or the other.
Summers in his “Annals of SW Va” gives ministers returns, and Kegley in “Early Adventurers II” gives the bond information. I have combined the two, plus added some date obtained in person on 23 April 2001, but the above is still not quite correct and complete. In the original marr register the dates for Agnes and Matilda are shown as reversed so it is unclear which refers to which, and I doubt the dates for John and Saml were one year apart.
Marriages after 1953 begin with volume “1" and continue... I did not look at these at all.
