+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

William participated in the Jacobite uprisings of 1715 as a supporter of Prince James the Pretender. He reportedly escaped to Virginia, but as many other Jacobite prisoners were deported to the Maryland Colony, I would investigate whether he was one of them.

William settled Anderson Bottom on the North Branch of the Potomac River

Dear Patrick:

In my haste to write you I didn't realize I had information about other Andersons in Adams County that might be useful to you. In our research regarding Nathaniel we found information about a Priscilla Anderson. As Priscilla is a much easier name to track I entered it into your gedcom file and came up with a James and Priscilla from Hampshire

County Virginia who just MIGHT be connected. What we found:

Direct deeds, 1797 to 1853

Anderson, Prescilla to West Union Trustees, vol. 4, 130, 3/16/1804, 5 A.

from Anderson, Prescilla to Richardson, Ebenezer, vol. 4, 3/13/1843, 120

acres, Brush Creek [this is the same area where Nathaniel owned land]

Probate Office, West Union Courthouse, Book of Wills

Priscilla J. Anderson will, June 14, 1862, p. 414

brother William H. Anderson

nieces Priscilla [and?] Susan Powell

sister Lucinda, Deborah M., Martha, Mary Ann

John H. Anderson, James M. Anderson

I regret that those are the only notes I can find right now.
