6.) John Lynn birth: 1685 in Ireland death: 1751 Title: Sr. spouse: Margaret Cameron b: 1696 Ireland death: Pennsylvania Note: John Lynn was in Queen County, Maryland in 1730 and in Augusta County, Virginia by 1746. He sued his brother, Dr. William Lynn there in 1751. This may be why John, unklike his other relatives, is not mentioned in William's will. Court records of November 1751 indicate a lawsuit between William Lynn of Fredericksburg and "Irish Doctor John Lynn" of Augusta County. Apparently this dispute remained unresolved, John left the county.

He attended Tinkling Spring Church near Staunton, Virginia--also other Lynns, Patton and Prestons.

In 1749 John Lynn Jr., and his brothers James and Andrew were in court there--- John Jr. received land, James and Andrew witnessed.
