Becky, OUR George FOX,sire of your GABRIAL,my Absalom, MR Montgomery's
Amos,Ambrose,George Jr ,ANCHOR, m Uriah Bonham,AND 2 MORE GIRLS, was likely
never in VA. 1719, HE BOUGHT LANDS OF CHARLES WOLVERTON at Rosemont-Hunterdon
Co,NJ and he died there 1753. His dau Anchor FOX m URIAH BONHAM,bought land
in nw Loudoun Co,ne Va 1760,AND SOLD IT TO HER brother,your GABRIAL,in
1764,with her returning to NJ. gABRIAL FOX did will carpenter's tools, but he
had owned 1000acres on BROAD RUN adj Capt Anthony RUSSELL,IN Loudoun Co,Va
1764-1780,and his bro,my ABSALOM FOX, 1-400 acrres. 1780,THEY BOTH BOUGHT in
Hampshire Co,with my Absalom FOX moving onto south of WASHINGTON, VERY SW
PA,1782,and d 1797. His father-in-law Amariah BONHAM D 1800+ WASH CO PA.
"TRADITIOND OF HUNTERDON CO ,NJ" says GEORGE FOX came from ENGLAND,ABOUT
1719. My own guess is that he was of the ne BURLINGTON CO,NJ [QUAKR]
FOX'S.who arrivied by 1690.]
