Seventh Generation

53. Catherine GABBERT¹ was born about 1757.¹⁷

Catherine's name is sometimes seen as Elizabeth, but she appears on deeds with Philip Horn as Catherine.

Phillip Horn received a NC Grant of 150 acres in Sullivan NC in 1780; no record of the sale of this land has been found [Sullivan records were destroyed during the Civil War] and no records have been found in Washington or Carter Co Tennessee. In 1800 Phillip Horn was on the tax rolls across the state line in Washington Co VA. He bought land recorded in DB 3, on 18 Mar 1806. Phillip and a spouse are in the 1810 Washington Co VA census and his last appearance on the tax rolls there is in 1811. He sold a tract of his VA land in 1812 after his residence was recorded as Mercer Co KY. Catherine, wife, appears on this deed.
