Some more names from " Northern Neck Warrants & Surveys (Culpeper County) ", by Peggy Shomo Joyner include the following:
Henry Huffman (1766), 369 acres to including several pieces of land. The chain carriers (CC) were Herman and Joseph Huffman. It should be noted that the pilot was Frederick Fishback, who is to be found in the Little Fork. This Henry Hoffman was not the Henry who was the brother of the 1714er John Huffman. I can't comment on the relationship of the chain carriers to the applicant, but with all three having the name Huffman, it would appear they were related.
John Huffman (1752), 3,525 acres. This is the 1714er John. The CC were Wm. Lobb & Wm. Jones. I know of no relationship of John to the CC.
William Huffman & Paul Huffman (1766), 58 acres near today's Brightwood. CC were Charles Cox and Adam Smith. The applicants were sons of the 1714er John. Adam Smith was married twice and in both cases the maiden name of his wife is unknown.
John Francis Lucus Jacobi (1772), 341 acres. It is not clear that this is a German, but he married Johanna Friederika Lotspeich. CC were Wm. McClaniham & Daniel Jacoby. Daniel was the father of the applicant, a reversal of the roles in which the CC is often younger.
Christopher Kabler/Cabler (1762), 136 acres on the south of Mt. Pony, adjacent Adam Yeager (who had sold to Conrad Cabler). CC were Conrad Kabler & Thomas Older. Conrad and Christopher were brothers.
Jacob Manspile (1779), 817 acres. Adjacent to Henry Aylor (who had purchased the original Bloodsworth land). CC were Adam Delph (married Magdalena Aylor) and Conrad Wilhoit (married Elizabeth Broyles). There seems to be no connection between the applicant and the CC.
Jacob Nay of Orange Co. (1748), 146 acres on a branch of Negro Run, which was in the Little Fork). CC were Harman Miller and Joseph Conts. [I am not that familiar with the families here so there is an opportunity for others to enlighten us.]
Henry Otterback & John Button (1748), 198 acres and 214 acres in the Little Fork. CC were Frederick Fishback and Harmon Miller. [Again, I would make a similar comment to the previous warrant and survey.] An interesting note is that Jacob Nae, 16 years old, and an orphan, claimed 100 acres within this survey which had been bought by his mother of Charles Dewit. The surveyor apparently discussed the case with Jacob Houlsclaw, who informed him that Jacob Nae had obtained 140 acres and was satisfied, so the Otterback and Button survey stood as surveyed.
