Notes

Matthias Rouse was a foot soldier of Culpeper Co., Virginia in 1756. From 1762 to 1788 he was involved in several land transactions. With his wife Elizabeth, he was a communicant in 1775 at Hebron Lutheran Church. He wrote his will in 1796, which was probated in 1806 in Madison Co., Va. He named his wife and their children.

The family epitomizes the westward movement, as the children moved to Missouri, Indiana, and Kentucky. Several of them were a part of the large number of Germanna people who moved to Boone Co., Kentucky, where the Rev. Carpenter went.

The children of Mathhias Rouse are well represented in the records of Hebron Church, as parents and sponsors, although none are given in the birth records. All of the children were born in Culpeper, VA.

ROUSE, Matthias - 280 acres 3rd rate land on Salt River in Bullitt Co. first entered under the name of Jesse DRAKE, Commissioner for Matthias ROUSE. No count for him
