~Sally's Ancestry~
per researcher Mary D. Fugate
~~~~~~~

John *Fugit- Fugate
was born in King George Co, VA, about 1736;
married
Sarah McCarty
(surname unproven, but the McCarty researchers like to say
she was one of theirs - and it's quite possible).

They lived in Shenandoah Co, VA, left there about 1772 for
Washington Co, VA, then finally settled in what is now
Russell Co, VA - near Castlewood. John died there before
August 1824, and all his children had moved on.
Deeds in Russell Co, VA, list his "heirs," among whom is Sarah,
wife of William Bowling, of Cape Girardeau Co, MO (this in 1833).

* John and his sons all used the spelling "Fugit" as their surname.

Footnote:
Any connection between John and the
William Fugate
son of
Zachariah &Unity(LNU) Fugate
grandson of
Martin &Sarah(LNU) Fugate
b: Abt 1783 Washington Co, VA, who married Lydia Tate,
is unproven and unknown, though heavily researched.
