Andrew Riddle (Ruddell), father of John Riddle (Ruddell) was the son of Cornelius Ruddell (Riddle). Cornelius Ruddell (Riddle) was the brother of the Isaac Riddle (Ruddell) who is in Montgomery Co., VA in 1769 in a furs dispute with Christopher Choat. We found the record of this court case last September when the seven of us descended on the Montomery Co., Va.
court house. So, the John Riddle (Ruddell) Jack and Betty found in the Botetourt County Court Records is the grandnephew of Isaac Riddle (Ruddell) who lived in Montgomery Co., VA from 1769 to 1779 when he went to Ruddell's Station in KY. There he and his family were captured by indians in 1779 and marched off to Detroit. They were released in 1784 (some of
them) and Isaac Riddle (Ruddell) appears in Surry Co., NC settling affairs in the probate of the estate of Marmaduhe Kimbrough, decd. Mentioned also in this settle are Isaac Riddle, John Bruce (the John Brice Jack and Betty found in Botetourt Co. in law suits with Isaac Riddle in 1771, 1772 and 1773?), Edmund Fanning - noted tory, Roger and Elias Turner - noted tories. The Inv. of Marmaduhe Kimbrough states that his wife was Mary Turner, dau. of Roger Turner. He moved from VA, to then Edgecombe Co., NC to Orange Co., NC, to the Shallowford.
