Information on Jeremiah Strother, Jr.
From "Register of Kentucky State Historical Society", Volume 16, by Kentucky Historical Society, pg. 105:
- Jeremiah Strother, Jr., was a son of Jeremiah Strother and his wife Eleanor. He married Catherine Kinnerly, who was the aunt of Mary Kinnerly, who married George Strother, son of Francis of St. Marks and Susannah Dabney. The above Jeremiah Strother left Culpeper county and settled on Saluda river, in South Carolina, where he died. A deed in 1746 is of record in which Jeremiah is joined by his wife Catherine in conveying 210 acres of land on Cannons river, near the Rock Hills in Rappahannock county, to John Batts. This is probably about the period of his removal to South Carolina. They had a son, George Strother, who reared a family in South Carolina, and died there, and another, Solomon Strother, who married Nancy Lawler, daughter of John Lawler and Susannah Strother, of Virginia. They had John and Samuel Strother. Shortly after the birth of the latter, Solomon Strother moved his family to Grassy Island, on the Pedee, in North Carolina, where he died. After his death his widow, Nancy Lawler Strother, married a lawyer by the name of Crawford, who removed the family to Nashville, Tenn. John Strother, son of Jeremiah and Catharine, and brother of the above Solomon, came back to Virginia and married Ann Strother, daughter of Capt. John Strother and Mary Wade.
