      [Captain John Bunch.ged]
      Christopher moved from Hanover Co. to Mecklinburg Co. VA. Christopher,
      a Captain in the military and the Revolutionary War, rode to the
      "frontier" with his men in 1758. It is possible that the "frontier" he
      marched to was the Dickson, Tennessee area evidenced by the migration of
      his children to this area in 1799 and 1800. A Mecklinburg County Will
      book (book 1 - page 312, dated 7/25/1778, recorded 10/11/1779) lists wife
      CARY and his children as heirs to his estate.

      land grant for his efforts.
