Information on James Anglin

From "Annals of Bath County, Virginia", by Oren F. Morton, pg. 188:

James Anglin lived until about 1756 at the mouth of Benson's Creek, which was at first called Anglin's Creek. Like so many other settlers he became embarrassed by debt. The Indians may have had something to do with his leaving, although he seems to have made a new home beyond the Allegheny. We read of Isaac and other Anglins in that quarter and there is an Anglin's Run near the western line of Greenbrier. Anglin's Ferry, now Philippi, was named for William Anglin.
