Hi Evelyn,
Then only VA connection we have is that on one Census, his youngest daughter placed her folks birth place as VA and the eldest wrote in a diary that they were from VA.No particulars.I suspect the Shenandoah River Valley but can't prove it.Our John and Mary Ann carved a 200 acre farm out of the Ky wilderness in Warren County.He is later found in Sumner Co., TN.I've been told there was a border change in the very early 1800's.John is believed to have died around 1822 and the family moved to Cass Co. MO in the early 1830-1840's along with many neighbors.
