[Charlou Dolan: Land was often patented or granted to someone after their decease, the land going directly into the estate of the deceased person. We know this grant was to this John because when his son William sells his share on 19 Mar 1794, the deed says, "which said land was granted to John Snodgrass Sen'r by Henry Lee, Esqr., Gov. of Va., by deed bearing date 27 Feb 1792, which said land was secured to William Snodgrass by the last will and testament of the said John Snodgrass duly proven and recorded in the county court of Berkeley.". All the surviving children (apparently John was by then deceased) sold their brother Benjamin's share of this grant on 18 Feb 1806.] .
