1762 December in Loudoun

December 16, 1762- John Conard marries Elizabeth Potts, daughter of Pennsylvania Quakers David and Ann "Nancy" Potts, at the Short Hill Meeting of Friends in Hillsboro, Loundoun County, Virginia.
The Potts family had come to Pennsylvania from Wales—some allege, with William Penn. They lived at or about Pottsgrove, where their ancestor owned a plantation to which the Virginia descendants were heirs.

(John Conard is my 5th great grandfather.)

December 27, 1762- Valentine Miller, future son-in-law of John Conard, is born to Christian and Mary Miller in Neersville, Loudoun County, Virginia.

(Valentine Miller is my 4th great grandfather.)
