    Note: some obvious date issues, needs further research. Wife's name appears questionable, no will found in Augusta County in 1773, appears problematic.
    Another Ancestry Public Member Tree claims John Mulhollen married Martha Gist [no sources listed].

    In Bell v. Borden, which was abated in 1751, James Bell says that eighteen cabin-rights were taken by himself and his servant, John Milhollen, and sixteen other men : Thomas Armstrong, George Henderson, John and Quentin Moore, Alexander, George, James, Robert, and Adam Breckenridge, John Bell, William McCanless, John Walters, Robert and Seth Poage, John Grove, and Daniel M'Anler. These settlers were to build and improve by April 1, 1738, and to be at no expense except the drawing and recording of deeds, and a fee of eight shillings for laying off each tract. The deeds were not forthcoming, and the settlers concerned threatened suit. The proprietor then agreed to make conveyance, but died before the deeds were executed. The younger Borden says he does not know of any improvements by these men, and denies that Bell has any right to the 200 acres claimed in behalf of himself and Milhollen.
