    Notes:

    John Strickler, John being the Anglicized version of the German name Johannes, was born on the Egypt Bend Tract in what was then Frederick County, VA, put is now Page County, VA and on land that at times has been part of Spotsylvania, Orange, Augusta, Dunmore and Shenandoah Counties. It is not known if he was born in the Jacob Strickler home Ft. Egypt built between 1756 and 1758.

    John's character was one of a big-hearted gentleman. Upon the death of his father he received a fortune in land and dwellings. He decided to divide the estate between all of his siblings, both full and half. This was a generous act considering there were 13 children.

    The occupation of John Strickler is uncertain. The estate of John Strickler included many items that would be owned by a preacher. However these items may have simply been inherited from his father. Many other items in the estate point to John owning and operating a prosperous farming operation.

    During his shortened life John had become well known in the community, a fact made obvious by the dozens of court documents he was asked to witness or attest to. Oral family tradition is that John Strickler was appointed to the court of Shenandoah County as an official testator. Courtesans were officially appointed to the court. I have not found record of an appointment for John Strickler, however not all records have been searched.

    John Strickler's death certainly came as a blow to the community. At about 44 years, John Strickler was still young and in the prime of his adulthood. His death was shocking but was not sudden. He had time to write out a will and live up to three weeks before he died. We can only speculate the cause of his death. An epidemiological study of 1802 has shown that large numbers of people died in 1802 of a malicious strain of viral pneumonia. Perhaps this is what took John's life.

    Married c. 1778, Dunmore County, VA (present day Shenandoah County)
