Property in Russell County Virginia - Little Yadkin

 I believe that Teague Quillin V and Peggy Nation  were married in 1788 in Surry County North Carolina. They would have been very young. They owned property in Surry County in Sept 1790 as they sold a farm of 200 acre on Blews Creek to Michael Fain.

By 1791, they had purchased 4 tracts of land on the waters of Obey, Copper and Plank Creeks about 5 miles from Gate City in Scott County Virginia (back then it was Russell County). This is where they must have started their family. 

In Dec 1812, there was a land grant of 91 acres on the Little Yadkin entered for the heirs of Teague on 6 April 1784.
