William and Elizabeth spent most of their lives on 923 acres along the Tye River in Amherst Co. that later became Nelson Co., VA. There are deed records in Augusta Co. where they apparently also lived for a time. These records identify him from 1780 to 1792 and as late as 1819. These are land sales records of his estate into the 1830's.
