Page 7 shows Robert Wade court VS Richard Buffington and Robert Wade VS John Grubb. Richard Buffington is listed on the 1697 Oliver Cope will Brabdywine Hundred, New Castle CO DE and has family that married into these Copes.
I have copied Lunenburg CO VA tax listings for 1748,1749, 1750, 1751, 1752 and 1764 all on the internet.
There are many people listed on these tax listings including the Thomas Vernon family that the Vernons' are trying to link this family to the 3 Vernons in Chester CO PA including Thomas Vernon listed by Gilbert Cope and found on the many Upland Court records with Robert Wade listed there.
Lunenburg CO VA has the Boone related Callaways and VanBibbers' 1748-1752 and several of my Cope related families named Prather and Spurlock 1748-1752. it appears that this county is full of Quaker desc.s .There is one Thomas Cope on the 1764 Lunenburg CO VA tax list Iam trying to solve and believe there should be others there 1740s-1750s but have not found them yet.
