WAGER/WAGES TIMELINE TO 1800 VIRGINIA, NORTH AND SOUTH CAROLINAS

 

Here is some research work that one individual has shared on Ancestry.com website for the Wager and Wages family.  I am not sure if this is our Wager or Wages family or not.  I know that our Benjamin Wages from Morgan County, Kentucky is not listed.  We might tie into this genealogy somewhere, but I do not know where or how at this point.  Kathy

I would like to share some of the research I have been doing on the early families in the South. I believe these to be of English origin since the VA group served in the House of Burgess and one was a member of the Anglican Church. This is an ongoing project. Hope this will help dispell assumption that the origin of the name is only German.
