About William Farmer

William & Priscilla (Coulson) Farmer were married February 11, 1808 in Grayson Co., VA.

William & Priscilla had 10 children, and by the 1850 census, only 2 of the children had married. Many of their children never married. William & Priscilla acquired a farm on Chestnut Creek in Grayson Co., VA and raised his family there.

Information about this family (including what I have about the children) comes from Joe Payne (http:joepayne.org/farmer.htm).

After his father died, William bought from his brothers their parts of the land inherited - Grayson Co. Deed Book 6 p. 345.
