John Salmon Jr.
John Salmon Jr. was the son of John Salmon Sr. 1738-1803 John was born abt. 1762 death before 1830 He married a Martha Kidd 1762-1850, I haven't seen where he owned any land in Halifax county. I found the name of his wife in Judgement records at the courthouse in Halifax Co Va. only a few got to look at those documents. I never saw anyone else marry him.
John had a son who was my 3rd great grandfather John Salmon 1790-1855, & Agnes Torian 1800-1844, They sold their land in Halifax Co Va. and moved to Kentucky in 1833 with Agnes Torian's brother and their family, along with the Gee Family. They moved to Trigg Co Ky, John Salmon 1790-1855 took his brother Armstead Salmon, and his family, they also took their mother Martha Kidd, Martha & Agnes are both buried on the old homestead in Trigg Co Ky. I have been to the land and talked to the owner of the land, he knew about where they were buried, it was in a wooded area on the farm.
