Frederick CUPP was born 17 Mar 1784 in Augusta County, Virginia. He died 14 Jan 1867 in Augusta ?County. I do not have proof of these dates and places, but they are on many family trees. He married Elizabeth BAKER 21 Aug 1810 in Rockingham County, Virginia. His father is said to be Marcus CUPP.
I am interested in Frederick because two of his children married the children of Christain RUSMISEL:
George B RUSMISEL married Catherine CUPP 29 Nov 1848
Mary Ann RUSMISEL married Simeon CUPP 19 Oct 1848.

There is a Frederick CUPP on the 1840 Census in Rockingham, but he is too young to be this Frederick. He may be a son or a nephew. This Frederick is probably there under one of the many variant spellings:
CUP, KOF, KOFF, KUP and others.
