19. SAMUEL⁷ DEHART (CORNELIUS⁶, ELIAS SIMON⁵, SIMON AERTSZEN⁴, AERT SYMOSZ³, SYMON JACOBUS², WILLIAM¹) was born August 24, 1752 in Montgomery Co, PA, and died May 18, 1824 in Ross Co, OH.
Notes for SAMUEL DEHART: Samuel purchased 270 acres of land on the head of Long Meadow Draft, off the waters of Linvell's Creek. The property was delivered to him 7 June 1764 (source: VA Probate Records, Originally published in Chalkley's "Chronicles of the Scotch Irish"). There is a problem here since Samuel was only 12 in 1764. [Note: the year of delivery to Samuel was actually 1790, as listed in the Chalkley's record shown]
Purchased land: December 12, 1768, Augusta Co, VA
