Notes - In his father's will, John (the oldest son) does not inherit the farm (literally), he only receives a small amount of money. The theory is that he had moved with his wife and family to escape the Revolutionary War as there was no Milleson listed in the Revolutionary War. The 1790 census, taken in the 1780s, has a John Milleson listed in Boone County, Carolina. The theory continues as that John left Chester County before the Revolutionary War and moved to Boone County, North Carolina. In the book written in 1920 by Maud Pugh, a John Milleson arrives in Virginia during the 1790s. His wife, Marget (Hannah?) Fields, can also be traced to Chester County, Pennsylvania. The missing link is a marriage paper between the two about 1776 ?.
