About Elizabeth Long

Elizabeth Airy was born in Frederick Co, VA 11 Feb 1744. Elizabeth died 21 Nov 1793 in Shenandoah Co, VA, at 49 years of age. She married Phillip Long in Shenandoah Co, VA, 1765. Phillip was born in Fort Long, Shenandoah Co, VA 18 Dec 1742. Phillip died 05 Feb 1826 at 83 years of age. Elizabeth and Philip Long lived on the South Fork of the Shenandoah River, not far from Luray near the place where their ancestors had settled. This area was later to become Page County. The Long name is German and originally was Lung; which is shown in signatures in German script on several documents in the clerk's office at Woodstock, Virginia. Long family genealogy provided was obtained from the Casper Branner Genealogy and additional research is in progress. The birth, death and marriage of Elizabeth Arey as recorded in "Casper Branner and his Descendants" was obtained from Mrs. Mary Arey Shiflet in 1904 by the author of that genealogy. If the records are correct, Elizabeth would have been 14 years older than her husband when they married, and only 14 years old at that time. It is doubtful this is accurate. She may have been born in Germany prior to Gottlieb's arrival in this Country on Sept. 14, 1751. Confirming documents have not yet been located and research is in progress.

Elizabeth and Philip Long had children:

Reuben Long (8/9/1773 - ) Phillip Long Adam Long Mary Long (1778 - ) Jonas Long (1782 - ) Nathan Long (1782 - ) Mary Catherine Long (1786 - ) Isaac Long
