About Rachel Elizabeth Kirby

26. Elizabeth TARRANT was born about 1742 in Henry, Franklin County, Virginia and died after 1811 in Warren County, Kentucky. General Notes: Source: The Virginia Genealogist, Vol. 23, 1979

Elizabeth married David KERBY about 1756. David was born on 14 Jul 1738 in Goochland Co., Virginia and died on 11 Apr 1811 in Warren County, Kentucky, at age 72.

General Notes: David purchased land May 10, 1760 in Halifax County, Virginia from William Byrd in the amount of 340 acres on Winns Creek. He appears to have moved to Pittsylvania County, Virginia around 1767 and in 1770 bought 1500 acres in that county on Pigg River at Glade and Rocky Creeks, which is today in Franklin County. During the Revolutionary War, David took the oath of allegiance in Henry County, Virginia on September 13, 1777. Around 1786 or 1787 David moved to Greenville County, South Carolina. By 1800 he was living in Warren County, Kentucky, with his sons Isiah, Asa, Jesse, Samuel, and Solomon, and his son-in-law Humphrey Scroggins.
