"To begin with on my father's side, there was Bartholomew Austin, my grandfather. Bartholomew with two brothers, Andrew and Bob, came to this country from England when they were young men. Of the other two brothers, I know very little, but Bartholomew settled in what is now Grayson Co., Virginia...." (as told by David Washington Austin 1849-1939, published in "The Southwest Virginian", Vol. III, # 18, December 1980.)
DEATH: Bartholomew Austin died around 1841 at Cumberland Gap, KY, en-route to/or from visiting relatives in KY. The source for Bartholomew's death was word of mouth conversation between E. Ray Austin, Ruth Marshall Austin, and Ann Dawson Thomas, of Amelia, VA, in the late 1980's or early 1990's. This information was passed on to Ann previously, but she doesn't remember her source. NOTE: Anna Reeves was listed as a widow in the 1850 US Census (see above), so Bartholomew obviously died before 8 Oct 1850. (source: Austin Families Association of America).
