    Notes:

    Written by Janet Perdue King

    Jesse Perdue was born ca 1790 in Franklin Co., Virginia to Meshack Perdue and Eleanor Dillon. He grew up on his parents farm located on the Blackwater River in same. He married at about 20 years to Catherine "Kate" Plyborn daughter of John and Rebecca Plyborn. They were taxed in 1812 owning 87 acres of land on the Blackwater River.

    Jesse served under Captain William Pepper in the War of 1812 along with brothers Daniel, Asa, Isaiah and Eli. This was a rifle company and along with three others formed the 4th Volunteer Regiment. They left for Christiansburg on the 13th of Sept 1813 and marched by way of Petersburg to Norfolk where they remained stationed during their entire service which expired March 1814. After being discharged, the company was conveyed on board a sail boat to Richmond and from there marched home on foot.

    After the War, Jesse's brothers made plans to move west, the first to go was Daniel Perdue in 1815 and then Asa, Luke and Matthew a couple of years later. A family tradition exist that Jesse along with brother Zachariah also moved to Sumner County but were unhappy so turned around and walked back to Virginia. Jesse received the following in his father's Will....."I give to my son Jesse Perdue, a Negro woman by the name of Dilly and her three children by the names of Jane, Julia and James, and another girl by the name of Milly all of which he has received in his possession to him and his heirs forever".

    In 1820, Patsey, Nancy and Aberilla Blankenship daughters of Liggon Blankenship were in Franklin County Court and ordered to keep the peace towards Jesse Perdue and his children. Jesse wrote his Will the 10th of June 1865 in Franklin Co., VA and it was presented for probate the 3rd of August 1871. His tombstone gives his death as 13th June 1871. He is buried along with wife Kate on the family farm in Franklin Co., VA

    Hello & thanks for your reply: Full name is DANIEL COLEMAN EDWARDS, b. abt 1750 in VA. Ancestry.Com always show birth as being in Bedford Co but I find no proof. He was supposely the son of WILLIAM EDWARDS & Grizzel Coleman, dau. of Daniel & PATIENCE ELLIOTT. DC's will was probated in Cumberland Co [Southam Par] 22 Jan 1770 & refers to his dau. Grizzel as Grizzel Edwards. Patience's will was probated 26 Aug 1771, Southam Par, Cumberland Co. per "Abstracts of Cumberland Co, VA Will Books 1 & 2, pp. 43 & 47.I went to Cumberland Ct House & searched for Daniel but found only William.In Pittsylvania Co. I found a copy of an Indenture in Deed Book 11, pp 246-247 dated 15 Feb 1798 whereby Bennett sold to DANIEL C. EDWARDS OF THE COUNTY OF BEDFORD. Proving his residence prior to that date was Bedford Co & then became resident of PittsCo. In another deed dated 15 Sep 1820 Daniel's full name is used [DCE].In "Marriages & Deaths From Lynchburg, VA Newspapers 1794-1836 sponsored by Randall Holt Chapter, NSD of the American Colonists, p. 180 has a brief obit & from there I found a complete copy of same: MR. EDWARDS WAS A SOLDIER IN THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR...Obit has a title ANOTHER REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIER GONE. That statement is not enough to prove his service as I submitted DCE DAR last year & was told that I needed more proof. He has never been submitted before.If I had to guess, I would guess that he lived in BedCo during the War years... so far, no proof. No Oath taken in PittsCo. but I cannot find any such list for Bedford. I queried PittsCo Historical Society, nothing there in the way of anything!So: if DCE's parents are in fact Wm. & Grizzel, why was he born in Bedford Co. & lived there for a good part of his adult life? He is not to be found in Maude Carter Clement's book, nor in the 1777 Oaths list of PittsCo, nor VAs Colonial Soldiers nor VA Military Records but for one DANIEL EDWARDS who was paid along with others for work on the fort at York Towne, p. 464. DAR replied that he would not have traveled to York Towne just to help build a fort. Someone once suspected he had been in the 14th or 15th VA Reg. No proof yet.Do I know too much! Also know he did not give food, animals tot he War effort in any of the 3 counties.ThanksPJ- Original Message ----- From: "marsha moses" <[log in to unmask]>To: <[log in to unmask]>Sent: Saturday, July 02, 2011 9:11 AMSubject: Re: [VA-ROOTS] Pittsylvania & Bedford Co, VA.

    William Edwards 1720-1784 married Grissel Coleman in 1750 Cumberland Co., VA. Grissel Coleman 1725-1788 has long been confused with her aunt Grissel Coleman 1705-1759 who died in Goochland Co., VA. The 1782 Cumberland Co., VA tax list has William Edwards as head of household, however in 1784 Grissel Edwards is listed as Head of Household, and the Estate Inventory of William Edwards deceased was filed in the Jan 1786 Cumberland Co., VA court.

    Some assumptions may be made from this entry.....he had five sons...he bought the shoes and ribbon for his wife or daughter...he bought educational materials for his children...he lived in the part of Hanover that converted to Louisa.

    Anyway, very interesting to have a peek at his selections.

  3. 50.  William Vardeman was born in 1697 in , , Sweden (son of John Vardeman Vardamon and Margaret Evans); died on 3 Mar 1789 in Dutch Fork, Richland, South Carolina, USA.

    Notes:

    William was born ca 1698, probably in Sweden. He was brought to America by his parents at about the age of seven and was raised in New Castle County, Delaware. He married Magdalena Petersson, daughter of Peter and Karin Petersson, at Holy Trininity Church in New Castle County, Delaware on April 21, 1720. The Peterssons were a Swedish family. The last record of the William Vardaman family in Delaware is the baptism of a daughter in 1724. William next appears in the Rockfish Gap area on the eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains in what is now Albemarle County, VA, but was then in Goochland County in 1734. By 1744 he has moved a little further south to the Peaks of Otter area of the Blue Ridge Mountains in what is now Bedford County, VA. In 1744 this area was in Brunswick County and later, in 1746, in Lunenburg County. Bedford County was created out of Lunenburg in 1754. In 1766 William with his second (or possibly third) wife and youngest son, James, relocated to the Dutch Fork area of what is now Newberry County, South Carolina, but was then in Craven County and later included in the judicial division known as Ninety Six District. William purchased 150 acres on the south side of the Enoree River on Indian Creek on 13 Dec 1766. The deed refers to William as a merchant. William died ca 1789 in Newberry County naming his wife Bridgit and four sons John, William, Jr., Peter and James, in order in his will. The first three were probably f from his first wife, Magdalena Petersson, while the last son, James, was probably with his last wife, Bridgit Tinkler. Based on details included in the various biographies of his grandson, Rev. Jeremiah Vardeman of Kentucky and Missouri, William raised a very large family. Since there were only 4 sons, there are likely several daughters. Unfortunately, we know the names of only two: Maria and Jemima. While it can't be proven, there is likely another daughter named Frances who married Peter Bennett. Beyond this we are unable to conjecture with any degree of confidence on the names of any additional daughters.
