Second Generation

3. Agness "Aggie" ROBERTS was born about 1765 in Louisa Co, VA.⁴² I'm assuming that she's the oldest girl - she was married and on her own first. No other reason. She died before 1840 at the age of 75 in Fayette Co, OH. She no longer appears on the census after 1830. Have been unable to locate probate files to prove death.

Agness "Aggie" ROBERTS and William ROWE were married on 15 January 1784 at Frederickville Parish in Albemarle Co, VA.^93,94,95 Albemarle County, Virginia Marriages 1780-1853, Vol III, p 607:
Roberts, Aggy & William Rose 15 Jan 1784; min-Matthew Maury (rector, Fredericksville Parish), 15 Jan 1785 (Hudson's Register)

If this is really Agness Roberts and William Rowe, then:
She was born no later than 1763 because no one had to vouch for her -
Then why would she be mentioned in the will without reference to her married name? They^93,94,95 appeared in the census in 1800 in Louisa Co, VA.⁹⁶ They⁹⁶ appeared in the census in 1820 in Union, Fayette, OH.⁹⁷ Aggie and William⁹⁷ appeared in the census in 1830 in Union, Fayette, OH.⁹⁸ William ROWE, son of John ROWE and Jane WALKER, was born in 1760 in Louisa Co, VA.⁹⁹ On 14 April 1806 he acquired 122 acres sold by Jeremiah Roberts & John Rowe, Sr in Louisa Co, VA¹⁰⁰ Louisa County Records
