Soldier of Continental Line Virginia
Source: Chesterfield Supplement
Anthony Christian is listed as ancestor #A021725 in the Patriot Index of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
Anthony never left Powhatan, Virginia. The DAR file shows he died in Powhatan, VA. So he cannot be buried in Tennessee. Also the son that is shown Anthony Christian, is the son of Nathaniel. After Nathaniel died Feb 1779, Jane and this family migrated with Nathaniel's brother Lewis Christian to Greene County Tennessee. There are Tax files with Thomas, Ishom, Jane, the son Anthony was too young to be on the Tax record. Info in this memorial has info from two brothers combined. This line is descendant of Anthony Christian, b. 1724, who married Mary Christian(a cousin), widow of Stephen Watkins. His son Anthony (1760-1796) married Rebecca Prosser and is the Rev War record. People have these brothers wrong, due to a false record submitted by someone in Tennessee, that falsely combined three Anthony's without doing their research.
There are admin real estate records that prove this.
