Husband's General Notes
From the FTM Files of Ruth A. Collins: "Abraham Aaron, Sr. was also known as Abraham Aron and Abraham Arnn. Research is leaning toward, but not proven, the probability that our Abraham Aron/Arnn/Aaron, was Jewish.
"There is one known case of shunning. Family tradition is that when Margaret R. Blair married Abihu Aaron, a descendant of Abraham Aaron I, her family shunned her because she married a Jew. That combined with family reports that Abraham I was Dutch and several his descendants were named after Jewish High Priests, raised the question of whether Abraham Aaron I was Jewish.
"'2.2 The Austrian Netherlands, 1713-1794
'Five years after the Peace of Utrecht (1713) had given the Southern Netherlands to the Austrian emperor Charles VI (1711-1740), heir to the Spanish kings, he imposed Toleranzgeld upon the Jews, which meant that only the privileged Jews who could pay the tax were allowed to stay in the city. But the tax increased every year, and other limitations were added: the Jewish citizens were allowed, for instance, to have Jewish servants, but these could not bring their wife nor children and only the oldest son was allowed to marry. This policy aimed at decreasing the number of Jews in the cities, and the Jewish community in Antwerp remained small and of minor importance in public opinion. The authorities had almost forgotten about the Jewish presence in Antwerp, till in 1715 ABRAHAM ARON became poorter (burgher) of Antwerp, a privilege for Christians only. Soon a few more Jews became poorter which was in fact a first form of civil rights for the Jews. But the Austrian Provincial Governor was not very pleased with this incident and enquired the city about their motives. In an answer to the Governor (November 16, 1729), the city said that there were only five or six Jewish families in Antwerp, but that they were very prominent in the lace, tobacco and diamond trade. Furthermore, that they were peaceful and very loyal to the government. The city added that they would like to see more Jews come to Antwerp because they were 'the core of the trade.' But still the Archduchess Maria-Elisabeth (1724-1741) was not satisfied with the answer. Because of all these limitations and taxes, Antwerp had become less attractive for Jewish tradesmen so that only two or three Jews remained in the city in 1737. The Toleranz-patent (1782) of Emperor Joseph II (1780-1790) meant a liberalization of the laws and the definite breakthrough of the Enlightenment which put an end to the discussion about the poorters-incident.

"Various researchers report that Abraham Aaron, I was married at least twice. No record has been found naming his wives. According to Virkus' Compendium, Abraham, Sr. married Judith Dill about 1757. This has been highly questioned by researchers. One of his descendants thought Abraham, Sr.'s wife was a Philpott.
"Abraham, Sr. and his family lived in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, before moving to Virginia.
"In 1771/72 Abraham, Sr. moved to Pittsylvania County, Virginia, where he purchased a large tract of land on the Sandy River near Franklin County.
"On 27 May 1772, Abraham Ernn (sic) purchased 210 acres on Aaron's Creek, a branch of Turkey Crock Creek for 50 pounds. 'Delivered to A. Aron' is written on the margin of the deed. This land was purchased from George Jefferson who was a first cousin of Thomas Jefferson.
"On 20 Jul 1779 George Ernn (sic) and Christina Soddiany gave Harmon Cook power of attorney; Abraham Ernn (sic) was named as a witness. A Daniel Aron/Aaron/Arrand also lived nearby in 1789. Possibly George and Daniel were brothers of Abraham Aaron, Sr.
"During the Revolutionary War, Abraham Aaron, Sr. furnished supplies for the Virginia Militia. On 17 Oct 1778, he furnished beef for the Pittsylvania County militia. On other occasions, he provided bacon, forrage, brandy, and he shot two horses. He also repaired guns for the use of state troops. Abraham, Sr. subscribed to the Oath of Allegiance before Capt. Daniel Hankins in Pittsylvania County, Virginia on 6 Sep 1777. He was also a member of the Grand Jury of Pittsylvania County for several terms during the Revolutionary War.
"An Act was passed by the Virginia Legislature in 1779 which encouraged settlers by offering "waste and unappropriated lands" for sale at nominal prices. Abraham Aaron, Sr. patented four tracts of land from the State of Virginia pursuant to the act which offered land for 40 pounds for every 100 acres: (1) 320 acres which was surveyed on 29 Oct 1782. The deed was signed in Richmond, Virginia on 1 Jun 1784 by Gov. Benjamin Harrison (Gov. Harrison was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence); (2) 96 acres which was issued on 10 Feb 1783; (3) 400 acres, warrant no. 10,635 issued 5 Jan 1782; (4) 220 acres surveyed 9 Apr 1802, and signed 10 Jun 1802 by Gov. James Monroe who later became a President of the United States of America.
"The census of 1790 reported that Abraham, Sr. was the head of household where ten individuals resided and that he owned one dwelling and three other buildings."
Michael Spainhour's files indicate that the date of death was 1818.
Shelley McCain Dillard's FTM files show the date of birth to be 1734 and date of death to be about December 26, 1818.
