    See Pendleton Co. deed from heirs of his brother, John.

    Married once, remained in the community where his father settled near the
    village of Crabbottom, Pendleton Co., VA/WV, now Blue Grass, Highland Co., VA.
    His place probably abutted the lands of his father and brother, Michael. It
    may be possible that he lived 2-3 miles from his fathers home, on Franks Run.
    His son, Daniel, lived at this location. Carl Arbogast, son of Abraham
    Arbogast lived there in 1971, per Amanda Forbes. Had 9 children.
