assuming he was about 25 when he made deputy sheriff, making him 33 to be executor of his father's will. He was left one couw and a calf.


Occupation:
served as deputy sheriff with brother Samuel in 1779 in Montgomery County.

Other-Begin:
An executor of his father's will, James received very little in the form of a bequest, indicating perhaps that he, like his brother Alexander, had received a settlement when he married. This, if the analysis can be verified, would have happened in 1786, when he married Janet Fulton, née Dunn.
