Discussion

In 1757 the will of Thomas Anderson is filed in Albemarle County. This Thomas is the son of Robert Anderson and migrated west from New Kent County along the north bank of the James River to Goochland County, Many of his children settled into what is now Cumberland County, Virginia during the colonial period and then spread southward and westward during the empire period..

Samuel Anderson arrived in the county later and is believed to have come from Maryland.
