Inez Fugate Liftig

m. ? Martin

b. 1948

died in 1803 at Russell Co.,Va.

m. Robert Liftig, 1971. b. 1947

* Note the first name”Martin,” which would be a typical use of surname as first name, from his mother. I believe this is a Anya Liftig

mistake, and that Inez’s ancestor is John, below.

b. 1977

Children:

8 William FUGATE b. 1765 d.bMar 1808

9 Colbert FUGATE b. 1766 d. Aug 1819

* Note the use of the name “Frances,” which would harken back to Peter’s wife’s first name. “William” will be repeated later, as will most of the other first names.

John Fugate “Jr.”

b. approx. 1730. d.1833. Age 103.

m. Sarah Henley, daughter of John Henley, MD.

Deserted from ‘His Majestie’s Service,’ 1757

“Castlewood John.” Settled in “Moccasin Valley,” 1774. Clinch River

John is my pick for Inez’s ancestor, because he married Sarah Henley, and the name is repeated in his grandson. The name

“Henley” of Henley Fugate, son of Martin, seems to come out of nowhere.

Benjamin Fugate

b. approx. 1760.VA. d. 1838. KY. Age78.
