Sorry for the last post typo, I meant to type "Kathie"
Julie,
I do not know which Peter he is searching for. Go ahead and send me both e-mail addresses
and I will send them along.
Thanks for all of your help,
Tim B.

Tim - there were at least 2 different Peters in that area, at that time.
there is the Peter whom Kathie is talking about - he was Francis' son, born about 1775
probably in Frederick or Shenandoah County, VA,
there was a Peter who was born in Frederick County, VA in the 1740s or so, whom the book
doesn't know where he went.
if it's Peter who is the son of Francis, I know 2 people who are researching his
line.
just let me know and I'll send you their emails.

Here is everything I have on Peter Lehew/Lahue (and hopefully, from
whom it came...). Peter's second wife, Elizabeth, lived with my
direct line ancestor, Joseph Brown after? his wife (Susannah Carter)
divorced him in 1838.
I estimated his date of death as 1837 b/c of the probate records - but
could have been earlier...

*Note* from Spencer County, Indiana Librarian:
"I have been rereading the old probate books and remembered an entry
in Probate Book A 1833-1842,(ca 1837,) Page 166 which states that
Benjamin Romine was the guardian of Minerva Lahue, infant heir of
Peter Lahue.
Just another tidbit for you.
Kris"
*NOTE*: from the book "Peter Lehew of Front Royal, Virginia and Some
of his Descendents, Vol I" by James Huston LeHue and Edith Foster,
page 34 states: "This would also seem to be the same Peter Lehew who
appears on a list of jurors in Dearborn Co., Indiana in 1806 and 1808,
and on a list of voters in Dearborn Co. in 1809. The combination
Francis Lehew-Peter Lehew shows up again in Perry and Spencer Counties
in Indiana. Peter's name appears on a Perry County tax list in 1815,
and in 1817, Francis Lehew sold land to Peter Lehew in Perry Co. This
was evidently that part of Perrry County which became part of Spencer
Co. about 1817, for their first land records in Spencer Co. give their
residence as Perry Co., while the 1820 Census shows Peter Lehew in
Spencer Co. (age 45 or over). Peter's marriage (evidently a second
marriage) to Elizabeth Mitchell on 10 September 1818 is recorded in
Spencer County. Either Peter or Elizabeth may have had a child by a
previous marriage, since there is a male between 10 and 16 with them
on the 1820 census. Elizabeth is in the 26-45 age group on this
census. On the 1830 census, Eizabeth is listed as the head of the
family, so perhaps Peter had died before this. He was certainly dead
by 1837, when matters pertaining to his estate came before the court
in Spencer Co.. We feel sure that the Meredith Lehue who was born
about 1800 or 1801 in the Boone-Woodford Co. area in Kentucky was a
son of Peter Lehew and wife Polly (Horsley). On the 1860 Census of
Trimble Co., Kentucky., Meredith Lehue's county of birth is listed as
Woodford Co., Ky. The boundaries between these two counties around
1800 were not clearly defined, and there were no other Lehews on the
tax lists in either of the two counties from 1800 to 1811 except
Francis and Peter (from 1800 to 1803). The name Meredith is one which
is found on the Taylor side of Peter's family. Children: i. Meredith
Lehue, b. abt. 1800, others???"
From: Pioneers of Old Frederick County, Virginia:
Page 345: "At Ashby's John and Thomas Ashby, John Catlet, Peter
Leehugh (Lehew), Moses Botts and Thomas Conway were hired as chain
carriers. [1736] The Ashbys lived on Beaverdam Run of Aquia Creek and
Chopawamsic Creek (present-day quantico Marine Corps Base) in Stafford
County, Virginia. The Botts were neighbors on Chopawamsic Creek. The
Catlet, Conway and Lehew families lived west of Ashby's on Goslin Run,
Dorrells Run and Elk Run (branches of Cedar Run) in present-day
Fauquier and Prince William counties, all located on the Brentstown
Road."
Page 363: "Thomas Roy of Hampshire County and his wife, Hannah
(William Sr.'s daughter [William Hurst]) sold 165 acres of the
400-acre tract to Francis Lehew for 50 pounds on 31 March 1785."

Ancestral File gives FGR of Peter and Elizabeth and their children (in
my Layhew binder) - unfortunately, several of their children are born
after Peter died??? So this is obviously WRONG!

I am interested in locating the burial site of a Peter Lahue.
Peter was
born in Front Royal, Virginia and I believed died in Spencer County
Indiana sometime between 1820-1840. If anyone can help me in locating
Peter's burial site, it would be much appreciated.
