  • Notes 
    • "He removed to Loudoun County, Virginia, where he purchased 270 acres from David Potts, his half brother, as it appears on the deed dated, May 8, 1759. Jonas is discribed as "smith" in the deed. On August 20, 1761, Jonas Potts obtained a patent from "the Proprietors office of the northern neck of Virginia," for a tract of land on or about Round Hill. How long Jonas Potts continued to live in Loudoun County is not clear. He and all his children seemed to have removed to western Pennsylvania or eastern Ohio before the close of the century, or shortly after. His descendants say that Jonas Potts settled at Georgetown, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, where he died at a great age."
