Notes for Harriet Magruder
UPDATE: 1998-01-27 at Va. State Library
Puzzle: Very bad microfilm of Fluvanna Co. marriage record book to which reference cited below is apparently the index (but it is in fact a bound typecript with apparent internal errors -- register ends at p.161 but transcribed index has entries to 188 or above, while index of msp. on film seems not to have entries >161) seems to show Jesse Butler entry 23 April 1811, but this may very well be a legibility problem. SHOULD RECHECK?

!MARRIAGE: by William Magruder. Vogt and Kethley, Fluvanna County Marriages: Virginia Historic Marriage Register, Iberian Pub. Co., Athens, GA, abt 1986 [acc. DAR Library 13 Jan 1986], p. 80.
HOWEVER, I found on microfilm in Va. State Library (perhaps F232 F6A5 1953, Va. Circuit Ct. 29th Circ., Index to Register of certificates of marriages solemnized from 1781 to 1853, and marriage bonds, 1777 to 1851, for Fluvanna County, Va.) a certificate dated 19 Dec 1816 signed by "Jesse Butler P.M.E.C." stating that he had on 23 Apr 1816 married Gideon A. Strange and Harriet Magruder "According to the rites and ceremonies of the Methodist Episcopal Church whereof I am a member." The same certificate lists two other couples he had married that year, one on 14 Sep and one on 5 Nov, so perhaps "April" was a transcription error for "August" in his notes.

Lummis records 6 more children, 5 with descendants.

Mayer ("Extraneus") reports birth 1797, death 1829/30 with ambiguous citations. Juanita Alloway 12 Feb 1993 reports birth 1796, death abt 1829 with no citation.
