  1. 2.  Col. Gideon Alloway Strange, I - of Dog Point was born 7 Mar 1793 (son of John Alloway of Fluvanna, Oak Hill Strange, IV and Mildred Ann “Milly” Barnett); died 23 Feb 1838, Private Cemetary Rock Rest Cemetery, Dog Point, Fluvanna, VA.

    Notes:

    Alloway of Dog Point
    Inherited his estate from his father.
    He was recommended as a fit and proper person for the office of
    Colonel of the 12th Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 2nd Division, Virginia Militia, in 1826/2.7 He represented his district
    in the Virginia State Legislature for twenty-one years. Judging from known dates, we surmise that his military
    career began sometime between 1811 and 1816, and that he became a district representative to the Virginia
    Legislature about 1817. One record stated that he served as a captain in the War of 1812 (1812-1815).
    Member of the House of Delegates (M.H.D.), Virginia.
    This author has concluded that Gideon must have fought with Zachary Taylor (1784-1850), 12th President of the United States, because Taylor is the only person whose background could satisfy all these criteria. Gideon‟s abilities in French would have served him well d uring the Black Hawk War (1832), led by „Old Rough
    and Ready‟ Taylor, along the Mississippi , in a region of Illinois and Wisconsin inhabited by French frontiersmen and fur trappers.

Generation: 3

  1. 4.  John Alloway of Fluvanna, Oak Hill Strange, IV was born 15 Jan 1727, Goochland, VA (son of John “Alloway’s” Strange, III and Ann or Galloway Alloway); died 1 Sep 1811, Fluvanna, VA.

    Notes:

    Because R1b’s claim Alloways’ - Also has son born in Albermarle… Albermarle Stranges come from Alex line..
    Look at possibilities of this:
    Edmond Alloway 1660 Goochland, Rose
    Edward 1630 Orkney (m. Phebe)
    William 1601
    David Magnus 1560
    But this can’t be right the dates are off 200 years!

    He had 9 slaves; possibly children.

    Was supposedly the “baby left on the doorstep”; a story told by more than one family group unrealted, and told to John Drake Strange III & John Mayer on separate occasions.

    This has to be where the R1b’s come in.
