Nicholas Corn arriving in Phil 1727 changed his name from Nicholas Chorn
if this helps anyone. Not sure these are relatives as I have never seen
another Nicholas or a Jan in the children. You may be right about that
they were Palatines.

Records show Michael McDearmondroe married to Katherine Last Name Unknown,

The early land deeds in the American Colonies usually described the land
as
"bounded" by streams, swamps, and adjacent land owners; and by corners
marked by
a specific oak, cypress, dogwood, or other kind of tree; and sometimes by
a
stake or rock. In Virginia Act of 1748, governing "processing" of lands
and
their boundaries and corners, was in force when Prince Edward County was
organized in 1753 - 1754. The law provided that "the bounds of every
person's
land shall be processioned or gone 'round every four years, and the
landmarks
renewed". The first processioning was done between June 1 and September
1,
1751. A second deed for four hundred acres acquired by John Davidson, on
file
in Prince Edward County, probably was a duplicate or confirmation of the
1742
deed and related to this system of "processing". Anyhow, the Parish was
divided
into precincts; and two or more (usually three) "intelligent, honest,
freeholders" were to procession the land every four years; and after the
third
time the land lines would be considered correct and permanent. William
Davidson
and neighbors Robert Atkins, Michael McDearmon, John Clark, John Owens,
and
others who also witnessed Davidson's Wills, invoices, and Marriages were
among
the first processioners from Bush River and Mountain Creek to Sandy Creek.

THE MICHAEL AND DUDLEY McDEARMON FAMILIES OF VIRGINIA
The name of the McDearmon families were variously spelled in wills,
marriages,
censuses, and other records in Prince Edward County, Virginia, during the
1700's,
McDearmondroe, McDearmonroe, McDearmond, McDearmanroe, McDearman, and
McDearmon.
Two Scotch-Irish settlements, both under the leadership of John Caldwell,
were
made in "Southside" Virginia, one of Cub Creek in Brunswick County, now
Charlotte; the other on Buffalo River in Amelia, now Prince Edward, about
1735.
The Scotch-Irish generally moved in companies and made their homes in a
settlement, for he threefold purpose of mutual protection against the
rigors of
the wilderness, of maintaining social contacts, and convenience of
religious
worship.
The first Scotch-Irish name to appear in the Amelia County Court Orders
is that
of Michael McDearmond (as spelled). He appeared as witness at the April,
1737,
Court. Two months later he made oath that he had not received any
allowance
provided by lay for bringing persons into the colony, and the Court
ordered the
testimony certified, evidently to the Council of the State.
The March 1754 Court directed the sheriff to summon twenty-four "of the
most
capable freeholders" of Prince Edward to serve as a grand jury at the May
Court.
The first grand jury included MICHAEL McDEARMON and JAMES McMACKLIN.
An act of 1748 provided that " the bounds of every person's land shall be
processioned or gone "round every four years", and the landmarks renewed.
County courts divided each parish into precincts, and appointed for each
precinct two or more "intelligent, honest freeholders" to procession each
person's land, the persons present at the processioning, the lands which
were
not processioned, and the reasons for not processing them. The church
wardens
were required to give notice at church, at least three days in advance,
of the
precincts in which the lands were to be processioned and the names of the
processioners. Three processionings (at four year intervals) fixed the
boundaries permanently, unless disputed whence the court jurors and
surveyors
were needed to settle disputes. Such was the orderly procedure of
establishing
property ownership.
The first processioning in Prince Edward County was ordered September 12,
1759o
to be done between October 10 and March 31, 1760. In the precinct in the
fork of Sandy River, form the Sandy River Church Road to Gri
