Information on Isaac Foster

From: “FOSTER’S AND THEIR ANCESTRY” by Lt. (later Brig. Gen.) Ivan Leon Foster, Field Artillery, U.S. Army, 1927:

ISAAC FOSTER, 3rd son of WILLIAM & HANNAH ELIZABETH FOSTER born in Northumberland Co., Va., went with his parents to the Broadrun estate. Here he grew to manhood, met and married SARAH, daughter of Edward & Elizabeth (Grigsby) Hughes. Isaac inherited 150 acres of land from his father, which he later sold to his brother, Robert.

During the latter part of the Revolutionary War, Thomas Hughes, Sarah's brother had built a fort on Laurel Creek, in Nicholas Co., near where Isaac & Sarah Foster now took up land, Isaac & Sarah's son, Nathaniel sold the Swopes Knob land a year later, in 1798, and erected a cabin near the one Isaac had built, and took over the running of the farm. A short time later, Isaac & Sarah's son Nimrod, also joined them in the area.
