[R13]
He probably was born between 1750 and 1760.
married in Louisa Co VA
He never appears on a census.
Note that he probably lived in VA his whole life. Census records for VA from 1790 and 1800 were destroyed in the War of 1812.
Apparently he moved from Goochland Co VA to Greenbrier Co. Most of his children were married there. Greenbrier Co is now part of WV.
