Biography

U.S. Southern Colonies Project logo
William Furr was a Virginia colonist.
We know that Charity later lived with Zacariah Helms, a son-in-law since she shows up on a tithables list in 1788. William drops from all tithable lists in 1784 so we assume he died thereabouts at the estimated age of 69 years.
