Freshwater 7 6 The research and writing on the decendents of Reuben II was done in 1984, 1985 and early 1986. The 1979 edition had partial information but ln this final edition every attempt was made to bring i t up to date naming all decendents. First, research was done to bring early ancestry up to the point of living decendents. These decendents then were contacted by phone and occasionally in person. Once the person contacted realized all was authentic they responded quite enthusiastically for the most part. Only basic information was requested but if more was offered, it was taken. Many copies of segments were mailed to those fur - nishing information . Some responded with corrections or addit~ons. Mailing questionaires was not satisfying. Replys were rarely received. My conversations were pleasant and gratifying with the many people contacted. There was generally alot of interest. Occasionally you'll find where some families were not brought up to date. The effort was made by us. We have supplied the latest available leads if others wi~h to pursue further. The method used to indentify generations are as follows: 1st generation I -II etc. 2nd generation a - b etc. 3rd generation (a) - (b) etc. 4th generation 1. - 2. etc. 5th generation ( 1) - ( 2) etc. 6th generation ( I ) - ( I I ) etc. 7th generation not often attained; referred to as daug., son My sincere thanks to those who assisted with family information.

This was in early 1779. A council was held with the neighbors and friends as to where they would bury the child, when it was agreed to inter it in the woods up where they were going to build the church. Curiously enough, the first interment in the new Cemetery at Cross Creek was of a Vance child, Jessie Emily Vance, daughter of Leander and Anna Vance, in January 1891.
