Biographical Information
George Warner, Sr. (ca. 1760-14 November 1847) lived his entire life in Loudoun County, Virginia. He married Sarah Schumachern (Shoemaker) (18 April 1764-30 September 1831) on 29 March 1787 and they had nine children: John (fl. 1787-1850), Hannah (16 October 1791-29 November 1844), William (24 October 1791-28 September 1864), Jonas (17 March 1794-29 August 1875), Israel (10 September 1796-15 June 1887), Pleasant (1787/8-1838), Mahlon (ca. 1800-4 August 1845), Joshua (ca. 1800-after 1850), and George (14 September 1811-27 February 1876). On 13 October 1806, George Warner bought 186 acres of land located a few miles northeast of Hamilton, Virginia from Thomas Hough (1760-20 September 1823). At the time of his death, George owned 369 acres of land, leaving one-ninth of his estate to each child. His sons Israel Warner and George Warner bought up their siblings' shares.
Israel Warner was one of George Warner Sr.'s two sons that stayed in Loudoun County, Virginia. He bought five of his siblings' shares located in the north/northeast area of their father's land known as "Cross Roads." He named the farm Pleasant View.
John Warner moved to Jefferson County, Ohio by 1840. On 11 March 1848 he sold his undivided one-ninth share of his father's estate for $1500 to his brother Israel.
