    CV Christian Overholser
    moved to Montgomery Co VA, which lies between Franklin and Giles. He married
    Catherine
    Fizer (Pfizer)
    and in 1820 had 6 daughters. He is said to have sold a lot in Amsterdam, Botetourt Co in
    1803. He had accumulated 933 acres at the time of his death. CV died 1828 intestate, and his inventory on 9/7/1828
    was in Giles Co VA.
    It is now highly probable that CV Christian is the brother of AC Abraham, and lived beside him in 1784 with 14 acres.
    There are no other Christian's that could meet time and space for AC Abraham's neighbor in New Britain Twp.
