Jacob Stover and Sarah I. Boone
Notes for JACOB STOVER:
We find that in 1714 Jacob Stauber was granted land, on Oley Creek, Philadelphia (now Berks County) . It is thought that Jacob moved to Virginia after his wife's death, for we find in Virginia record of one Jacob Stover's sale of land in Augusta County (now Rockingham County), to George Boone of Oley; one tract of 500 acres and another of 1000 acres described as near the end of North Mountain, on a small branch of the Shenandoah, part of 5060 acres laid out for Stover by the Council of Virginia July 1730. In 1738 a wife Margaret Stover signed a deed for land sold by Jacob to another person. Margaret was probably a second wife.

Medical Information: buried Augusta Stone Church NR Staunton Augusta Co. Virginia
Notes for SARAH I. BOONE:
Sarah did not affiliate with the Quakers. It is possible that she died quite young. According to records it is thought Jacob married again and moved to Virginia.

to happen.

#9) 1782 Henry CO VA tax list-
Jacob STOBER
William Dllingham, Holden McGeehee, James & Thomas Hollingsworth found in
Lunenburg CO VA and later Pittsyvania CO VA tax list 1770s and believe they
are desc.s of the Hollingsworths of DE- getting close on this . These
Hollingsworths are for sure related to Vincent Hollingsworth 1773 Pitt. CO VA
and 1787 -1790 Wilkes CO NC, 1800 Ashe CO NC -desc.s 1820 Clay CO KY.
Note: on the 1697 Brandywine Hundred , New Castle CO DE tax list are Oliver
COPE, Valentine-Thomas- Henry Hollingsworth and Thomas JONES- the Copes',
Hollingsworth and Jones are on the 1820 Clay CO KY census and I will do my
best to find a connection for all 3 families to DE.
#10) 1786 Franklin CO VA tax list-
Jacob Stover SR
Jacob Stover JR- marr. Sally McGahee 1788
Holden McGehee
Jacob BOON ??
John BOON ??- I know alot of Boon/Boones but not these men
James- James Callaway
The Choats are listed and they are on all of the VA tax lists back to
Lunenburg CO VA and are from MD.
Franklin CO VA was part of Henry CO VA 1782 - Henry CO was Pittsylvania CO ,
Pitt. CO was Halifax and it was Lunenburg CO 1740s-1750s.
Looks like I tracked down one of the Boone related families and wished the
Copes' could leave a trail like this . May one day find them in Orange
/Augusta and hope to find more in Lunenburg CO VA -signs are there for this
to happen.
David ( The Messenger ) Cope
PS- may have stumbled onto a whole lot of New Castle CO DE families on the
1782 Montgomery CO VA published tax list with James, James, John, William,
William and Andrew Cope/Coape on the 1782 Montgomery CO VA index and only
found 3 on the listed list on the internet.

1 comment:
I am part of the Stover line that spent more time in PA and from there some of the line move to VA, but you seem to be from the Stovers
that settled early in VA. They aren't related. Mine are from Germany near the swiss border and yours from Switzerland (?) The controversy about the Eisenhower connection still goes on it seems. I spent a great deal of time trying to sort it out many years ago before there was much available on the internet. It became clear to me that our line has a Daniel born in PA and there is another Daniel born in VA. I see many trees now on the internet with an entire family of Stovers born in PA with the one son Daniel born in VA. It is an obvious mix up which goes unnoticed. From what I know the Daniel from VA is the one related to Eisenhower, and those from my line seem so determined to be related to him they Stick the VA Daniel into their trees. So you get both Daniel Boone AND Eisenhower.
