Haislip, E.H., The Haislip Book, 1967 p. 78 We estimate that James Haislip was born about 1745, as there is a James Haislip mentioned as taking the Oath of Fidelity in Montgomery County MD (Folder 2, page 3). He migrated to Charles County, MD and then to Fairfax County where he settled permanently until his death in 1803.
