Advisory on William Lockridge

Some researchers have claimed that this William Lockridge is the same William Lockridge that acquired land in the Borden Tract in Augusta County, VA, but since that land was acquired in 1742 & 1755, this William Lockridge would have been much too young to have acquired land at that time. The William Lockridge that lived on the Borden Tract was the Uncle of this William Lockridge, and is listed in the book "Descendants of James and William Lockridge, Pioneer Brothers of Early Augusta County, Virginia" by Robert Walters.
