In Reply to: Wetherill and Cresson Company 1781 by Os Cresson of 143
Os,
I'm looking for information on my ancestor Elizabeth Cresson who married Peter Larue (b. March 25, 1688 in Kingston, Ulster Co. New York and Died May 7, 1783 in Frederick Co. Virginia.) She would have been born in the late 1600. Two of their sons would have been Isaac Larue (b. June 11, 1713 d. March 20, 1795) and Jacob Larue.Any help would be appreciated.
Bruce Allen Waymire
