McCreery Family- Indiana, Ohio, Virginia

What part of VA is this in?My family lived in the area near Bull Run from the early 1740's up through the Rev War-the father that started us was born in Scotland in 1686 (James McCreery) and brought his son John to Ireland-there John married Agnes Mary Crawford in Denmark, Ireland-they came to the US through Pennsylvania and settled in the area of AugustaVa-sons John and Robert organized a horse unit in Va for the war.
Robert had a son James (and probably one or more of his three brothers also likely carried the name to their sons-it seems to run in the family)botn in 1776 in the same area.My part of the family went to the Northwest Territory (later White County Ill) in 1811.
John and Agnes went back to Ireland during the years between 1735 and 1740-their children Garret and Nancy were born there and son William has no birth location-likely born on ship.
Well-;et me know what you think
Thanks
