Elizabeth GROUND was sister to my GGGgrandfather George
Washington Ground, who settled in Botetourt County, VA
in early 1800's.GWG had a large family, and can be found
in the Botetourt County censuses through the 1840 (although
the location in which he lived {Salem}would later become
Roanoke County) census.He died Jan of 1842.
Their parents were Phillip & Mary Ground (Grundt). He was born in 1742-Wurtenburg, Germany; died December 21, 1809 in Washington County, MD.
Phillip's parents wereJohann Adam Grundt and his wifE Catherine.He was born April 28, 1713 in Dellfeld, GERMANY.He and his wife married about 1734.He died in
Philadelphia, PA in 1790.
JAG's parents were Ludwig Grundt, born about 1668 in Dellfeld, GERMANY, and died April 19, 1715.His wife was
