I had a note from Pat Hardman who has the first Alsup to
America was William in 1633 settled in Virginia. Son Wm Jr
b ca 1690 in VA, d 1788 in Hanover VA. His son Wm had five
sons, John, Joseph, Thomas, Wm and Robert. John b ca 1730,
VA?, d Monroe Co, MS, bur Kings Mountain Cem. He had six
sons: John, Thomas Benton, Dewey/Drury, Joseph, Anderson &
Peter. John Sr appears in the VA Mil. Rec. and his name
appears in the Montgomery Co Story 1776-1957. He fought in
the French and Indian Wars (Braddock's War) under Col G.
Washington. He was quite prominent in early Fincastle and
Montgomer Co early history. Pat is des from Moses Locke son
of John jr. Shirley

At one time I thought Wm N was my ancestor, but later found it was Wm L, son
of Thomas. Here is a little bit of info on the Alsups some of which may
have errors.
