In 1785 Jacob Borror II married Magdalene Strader in Hardy County, VA. At the time of Jacob II's death in 1804, they had six children, Martin, Christine, Jacob, Solomon, Isaac, and Myomi. A fifth son, Absalom, was born after Jacob's death.

In 1809 the three eldest sons of Jacob II came to Jackson Township of Franklin County, OH, and began clearing the 250 acres of land that had been given to them by Christopher Strader, Sr., who was living in Ross County at the time. About two years later, Magdalene and her other children moved to the area her sons had cleared. It was this area, near the present intersection of Ohio State Routes 104 and 665, that became known as Borror's Corners.

Borror's Corners is about twelve miles south of Columbus, OH. It was never incorporated and is not indicated on current maps of Ohio. It was clearly marked on maps in the 1800's, and there is still a nearby road marked as Borror Road.

Magdalene Strader Borror is buried in the Scioto Cemetery near Borror's Corners.

Charles Borror (1758-1843) was a soldier in Revolutionary War. He volunteered for 3 months service about Oct. 1, 1777, from Hampshire County, VA. He was a private in a company of volunteers commanded by Capt. Parsons. This company fought Indians on the northwestern frontier. He was stationed one month at Petersburg under Col. Gibson, commanded by General Hand.

He traveled the Ohio River to Wheeling where he was stationed under Col. Shepherd for the remainder of his three months service, then marched back to Hampshire County where he was discharged by Capt. Parsons. In 1780 or 1781 he was drafted from Hampshire County to serve another tour of three months in the militia. Believing himself to be illegally drafted, he refused to march and was condemned to serve six months in Fredericksburg, VA, Cumberland, NC, then Richmond,VA.

In the spring or summer of 1782 he was sent to investigate Indian attacks in Tygert's Valley by Joseph Neville, the County Lieutenant of Hampshire. He was discharged in the summer of 1782 by Lt. Neville. His official discharge came on Dec. 20, 1782. A copy is in his military file at the National Archives.

Charles's will dated Jan. 3, 1841 and probated Nov. 1843 shows that he was a widower and had children Elizabeth, Martin, John, Solomon, Sarah, and others not named. Charles also had a daughter Jennie who lived for 100 years, 1806-1906.

Charles's grave marker is of handcarved fieldstone at the Borror-Riggleman Cemetery in Grant County on Knob Rd. 12 mi. south of Petersburg, WV. It stands next to the more modern marker of his son, Martin Borror.
