Reference: Everett Spitzner providing that the following applies to William Rush III: "He was born before 1687. He was a minor in 1708 when his father, William Rush II's, estate was settled. 100 acres of land was granted to William Rush III in Spotsylvania County, Virginia on May 11, 1726. In 1734, that county became Orange County. William Rush III died in Orange County in 1735. His estate, administered by widow, Mary Rush, did not list any in the estate record; however, his sons were William, Crawford, Absolem and Benjamin (the name James was apparently handwritten in front of the name Benjamin on certain records, as well)."
