Records of William Moffett in Augusta County, VA

From Chalkley's:

  • Page 231.--18th March, 1760. George Moffett's bond (with Wm. Anderson), as guardian (chosen) to William Moffett, orphan of John Moffett. (Note: in 1760, this William Moffett would have been close to being an adult unless his birthdate was actually a few years after his estimated date of 1740).
