Advisory on Joseph Love

There was another possibly unrelated Joseph Love (that married Margaret Bryan, was living in the Roanoke Settlement area and both he, his brother William and also possibly his wife were killed by Indians in 1758) living in early Augusta County that may be confused with this Joseph Love. This Joseph Love married married Mary Teas in abt. 1752/3.
