Borens also settled in Washington County, VA

 I am continuing to research the Bowen/Boren/Boring/Boreing line. I have found information indicating the following.

The Boering clan apparently arrived from England, at Norfolk, Va. From there, a portion moved north to the Baltimore, Washington County, Md. area and claimed land being granted to new settlers. This was in the 1600's. 

Another portion of the immigrants moved south, first to Currituck County, NC, later to Orange and Caswell and Rowan counties, all further west in NC. Some of that group eventually went to SC and from there to Tennessee.

Borens also settled in Washington County, VA, a county in the southwest tip of Va. Those then moved into NE TN, Kentucky, and central TN around the Nashville area.

Here is a link to an article describing much history of this group.
