INTRODUCTION.

** He who careth not whence he came, careth little whither be goeth."

NO apology is needed for a work like this. It is only intended
for those who are directly interested in its contents. There
can, assuredly, be no harm in setting down a list of one's
family connections, if only as a matter of curious, if not useful,
information, and it really does not concern the general public at all.
If any of those whose acts are recorded here deprecate the linking
of their names with others of less renown perhaps, it should be
remembered that we are, after all, merely one great family, inter-
minably interwoven, and all springing originally from a common stock.
No pretense of illustrious ancestry is affected, nor thought of superi-
ority entertained, because of the certain knowledge that descent
can be traced back several generations. Experience abundantly
teaches that such evidence is uncertain, if not useless, as many
celebrated characters in the world's history rest on no such foxUn-

dation.

* • Honor aiid shame from no condition rise,
Act well your part; there all the honor lies."

The information recorded here was collected with much labor
and infinite pains by Thomas Henry Edwards, of West Point,
Virginia, and Peyton Neale Clarke, of Louisville, Kentucky, with
the assistance and co-operation of numerous correspondents, and
a personal visit to the old homesteads by Mr. C. A. Morrison, to
whom we are indebted for the photographic views.

KING WILLIAM COUNTY.

This county was organized in 1701, its territory being taken from
King and Queen, which in turn had been formed from a part of
New Kent in 1691. New Kent was a part of the original Shire
of York until 1654, the latter being one of the first divisions of
the Colony set apart in 1634. In 1720 Spotsylvania County was
formed from parts of King William, King and Queen, and Essex,
and in 1727 King William was again called on to surrender some
of its territory' when the new county of Caroline was organized.
A history of King William would consequently be inseparable from
that of all of these counties.

The wide rivers, wooded hills, and broad savannas comprised
within its limits attracted the attention of the early settlers, many
of whom had sufficient influence to obtain extensive grants of land,
and located their homes on the banks of the Pamunkey, York,
and Mattapony rivers.

The Indians lingered here until the beginning of the eighteenth
century, and some friendly ones long after. Indeed, there is a
small remnant of the ancient Pamunkey Tribe still residing at
Indian Town, near Sweet Hall, on a reservation set apart for their
use by the Colonial Government. Since this was written the
following account of the Pamunkeys appeared in the Baltimore
American, which is, however, mainly taken from a report of the
Smithsonian Institute by John Garland Pollard, of Richmond:

**They are the undoubted offspring of the old Powhatans still
dwelling upon a part of their old hunting-grounds, and representing
all that is left of the once powerful native confederacy that gave
the early Virginia colonists so much trouble until expelled from
Jamestown region in the year 1644. Their progenitors possessed
the land when Captain Newport, in 1607, founded Jamestown, the
first f)ermanent English settlement in North America.

** Consequently the present Pamunkeys are the veritable *blue
bloods ' among all the Indians surviving to-day, and they form the
largest remnant of the old Algonquin stock now to be found on
the Atlantic coast. Only a few trifling offshoots and some few
uncertain and feeble strains of blood remain of the other Powhatan

KING WILLIAM COUNTY.

tribes. The Pamunkeys alone have withstood intact the encroach-
ments of civilization for nearly three hundred years. And their
preservation is all the more noteworthy from the fact that they live
by themselves in their peculiar way in such close vicinity to the
busy marts and 'effete civilization* of the East. Although their
manners are modified, their language lost, and their prestige van-
ished, they still illustrate in themselves the law of the survival of
the fittest. The bare fact of their existence is unknown even in
many parts of Virginia, and almost wholly unknown elsewhere.

* * The Pamunkey tribe live in a queer settlement called * Indian
Town,' situated about a mile east of the historic 'White House,'
where George Washington wedded the beautiful Widow Custis.
Their reservation, comprising eight hundred acres, ceded to the tribe
by the ancient colonial assembly of Virginia, is an odd-shaped neck
of land, almost entirely surrounded by one of the serpentine curves
of the Pamunkey River, tributary to the York River, and not far
from the junction of the two. It is on the line of the York River
Division of the Richmond & Danville Railroad. The place is con-
nected with the mainland by a single narrow sandspit, and the
isolation and protection afforded by this peculiar situation doubtless
saved these Indians from destruction. About one third of the
reservation is good farming land, and the remainder consists of
woods and low swamps, well stocked with deer, raccoon, otter,
muskrats, mink, reed birds, wild geese, ducks and turkeys.

** There are only ninety Pamunkeys actually present on the
reservation proper, and thirty-five more residing on another small
reservation twelve miles northward on the Mattapony River, besides
twenty others employed during the summer as boatmen on steamers
pl)dng the Virginia rivers, making a total of one hundred and forty-
five Pamunkeys now living. In appearance they are distinguished
by the usual copper-colored skin, straight, coarse hair and dark
eyes. They are not particularly strong or robust and their average
longevity is less than that of their white and colored neighbors."

This report also explains the origin of the curious name of
**Pipingtree Ferry." At a council between the whites and Indians
the pipe was passed around on the ratification of the treaty, after
which it was deposited in a hollow tree near by. Ever afterward
when the whites disregarded their agreement they were reminded
by the Indians of the * * Pipe-in-tree. "

Many of the titles to land in King William are held by de-
scendants of the original grantees, and the ownership has been
confined to their own families.

KING WILLIAM COUNTY.

The county is noted for the prominence of its old families in
the history of the colony, and has furnished a noble line of men
and women, who, after carving out a glorious inheritance, failed not
to provide the material to perpetuate it.

Beginning with the first hand-to-hand conflicts with savage foes,
on through the French and Indian wars, then the struggle for
independence, the War of 1812, the Mexican War, and the last
great internecine strife, the scars of which are not yet obliterated,
old King William's sons have been ever in the van, and her patriotic
blood has flowed wherever and whenever the call of duty has been
sounded.

Distinguished not alone for valor, her people have been fore-
most in promoting the welfare of the Commonwealth and the
advancement of civilization. Legislative halls have echoed to the
eloquence of her statesmen, and every honorable path in life has
resounded to their tread.

Many have contributed to the history of the State. Not a few
have gained national renown, while the deeds of some will live as
long as time lasts.

Not only does King William boast a notable posterity for her
families, but the claims of ancestry are as well sustained. There
are the Wests, who go back to the reign of Exlward the Second,
and of the same line as Lord Delaware. The Wallers trace their
ancestry to the time of the Norman Conquest, and some say to
Charlemagne; the Taliaferros certainly as far, and the Claibomes,
Peytons, Fontaines, and others are quite as ancient. Then there
are the descendants of the Cavaliers, and particularly the connections
of the old English landed gentry, the bulwarks of Albion, whose
blood is purer than most of the so-called nobility, and who sent
out their bravest and best scions to people the New World. We
can not omit the grand old Huguenots who * ' left fortune and fame
for conscience sake,** and helped to swell the population and enrich
the endowment of the land of freedom and light. The list is elo-
quent, and includes such names as Claiborne, Bland, Roane, Robin-
son, Johnson, Slaughter, Edwards, Thornton, Powell, Gregory,
Robins, Aylett, Walker, Neale, Hill, King, EUett, Lipscomb, Pem-
berton, Corr, Dabney, Moore, Beverley, Butts, Littlepage, Dan-

KING WILLIAM COUNTY.

dridge, Pollard, Quarles, Meredith, Lewis, Braxton, RufiBn, Peyton,
Browne, Vaiden, Defarges, Croxton, Bosher, Langbome, Fox,
Fontaine, Freeman and many others.

King William County was one of the homes of Powhatan,
and the reputed scene of the rescue of Captain John Smith by
Pocahontas was not far distant. Bacon and his followers per-
formed some of their exploits here, the remnant of his band sur-
rendering at West Point, and Benedict Arnold and Comwallis
committed depredations before the final surrender of the latter at
Yorktown, in the adjoining county.

There was an old cannon, partly buried in the ground at Lanes-
ville, said to have been left there by Comwallis. It was dug up
and cleaned, and on the arrival of the news of the Secession of
Virginia, in 1861, was fired amid much enthusiasm and demonstra-
tions of patriotism. In the four succeeding years the county was
overrun by both armies, vast amounts of property destroyed, and
many of her citizens found patriots' graves.

This county lay in the path between the Northern Neck and
Williamsburg, and George Washington, as well as other dis-
tinguished men, frequented the homes and enjoyed the hospitality
of her citizens. Carter Braxton, one of the signers of the Decla-
ration of Independence, lived here, and the kin of Patrick Henry,
John Randolph, Lee, Custis, and others, peopled her shores.

The material used in many of the old King William houses is
represented to have been imported. While brick-making was
early inaugurated in the colony, it is quite certain that a great
many brick were brought over and used in foundations, chimneys,
etc., where the extent of the work probably did not justify their
manufacture. The exportation of tobacco and other commodities
necessitated the employment of many vessels. It is highly proba-
ble that they brought over building material among other supplies.
At * * Waterville, " the home of Henry Corr, near ** Sweet Hall," Mr.
John B. Carrington of Louisville, Kentucky, noticed the remains of
an old house, the bricks of which bear date of 1600, and which were
unquestionably imported. There was a kind of glazed brick of a
peculiar color, differing from bricks made of the native clays which
were frequently used, and it is probable that all the brick of this

4

KING WILLIAM COUNTY.

class were made in England or Holland and brought over to the
Colony. Harper's Illustrated History of the War records that,
between October, 1863, and March, 1864, there were at no time
more than seven thousand troops in and about Richmond, while
there were fully ten thousand Union prisoners in the city. Plans
were made by the Federals to make a sudden dash on the city and
liberate the prisoners. Kilpatrick was sent with four thousand
cavalry to effect an entrance on the north, while Ulric Dahlgreen
was to attack the city from the south. Kilpatrick very nearly
succeeded, but was repulsed almost in the city limits, mainly by
the department clerks and a few regulars. Dahlgreen was said to
have been misled by his guide, whom he promptly hung, and
wandering around aimlessly reached King William County, where
his willful and sanguinary mistreatment of defenseless women and
children and destruction of private property caused so much indig-
nation that the younger men, who had formed themselves into a
home guard, attacked his command, killed the leader, and captured
most of his followers. It is said that orders found on Dahlgreen's body
directed him minutely as to his actions should his expedition suc-
ceed.

The Confederate President and his cabinet were to be assas-
sinated, the Union prisoners liberated, and the city given over to
rapine and pillage. The indignation was so great that his body,
which had been decently interred, was taken up and secretly buried,
and all trace of the vandal obliterated.

McClellan landed a large force at West Point in the ** Penin-
sular Campaign," and established a base of supplies at the White
House, the old seat of the Lees just across the Pamunkey River
in New Kent County, which subsequently fell into the hands of the
Confederates. The White House was built on the site of the old
Parke Custis house, the home of Martha, the wife of Washington,
and when it was abandoned on the approach of McClellan's army,
it is said that Mrs. General Lee left a note in one of the rooms
asking that the place be protected from desecration on account
of its associations. It was, however, destroyed by the Union
troops when they were forced to abandon their stores, and the
''associations" were forgotten.

KING WILLIAM COUNTY.

Some of the old officers in King William County, taken from the
Board of Trade Reports, in the year 1702 were as follows :

Burgesses, John West and Nath. West ; Sheriff, John Waller ;
Justices, Henry Fox, John Waller, John West, Henry Madison,
William Claybome, Richard Gossidge, Martin Palmer, Daniel
Miles, Roger Mallory, Thomas Corr, William Hay, George Dabney,
and Thomas Terry ; Escheater, Math. Page; County Clerk, WiUiam
Aylett; Surveyor, Harry Beverley.

Parishes: St. John's, Minister, John Monroe; Christ Church,
Minister, Andrew Jackson.

Trustees, Founders and Governors appointed by the Charter:
Thomas Milner, Christopher Robinson, Charles Scarborough. Gov-
ernors elected: Arthur Allen and Thomas Barber.

It is not possible, in a mere sketch like this, to do justice to the
importance of this little strip of land or to record its important part
in the history of the nation, and it is left to some future historian to
fill in the spaces and follow the merely suggestive ideas here set
down.

OLD HOMES.

King William contains many relics of colonial days, but none so
interesting as the old homesteads of the Claibomes, Braxtons, Dand-
ridges, Edwards', Ayletts, Langbomes, Pollards, etc., which all have
their peculiar features and traditions. In these old mansions a
former generation lived in lordly manner, and entertained with lavish
hospitality.

Many of the old buildings have decayed and disappeared, others
are mere ruins, while a few have been preserved with zealous care,
and their hearthstones still respond to the touch of old-fashioned
customs.

Time was when King William's homes resounded with mirth and
pleasure, and her noble sons and stately daughters spent their time
in routs and balls, and the old rafters of the ancient buildings echoed
to the music and graceful steps of the minuet. The visitings and
goings about, the big dinners and parties, fish-fries and frolics occu-
pied their time to the exclusion of most other matters, and it is no
wonder the old churches fell into decay. The parson, however, was
not entirely disregarded. His services were in demand for weddings,
christenings, and burials, all of which functions were made the occa-
sion of much ceremony and feasting. A certain gentleman from
North Carolina having wooed and won a charming young lady of King
William, who figures in this record, came on to claim his bride, and
many times have I heard the account of his arrival with his great
yellow coach and six splendid black horses, with grooms and footmen
in livery, and half a dozen friends as outriders; his elegant apparel
and courtly manners, the magnificent jewels and presents for the
bridesmaids and attendants. How a whole month was consumed in
*'one continual round of pleasure" ere they bade farewell and
started on the return to his Carolina home.

A most interesting story has been published of the * * Barons of
the Potomac and Rappahannock." The *' Barons of the Pamunkey
and Mattapony " would be fully as entertaining.

In King William the cream of the English Cavaliers first made
their homes. The Claibomes, Wests, and Dandridges, Boilings,

Blands, and Wallers, Cloptons, Brownes, Hills, Peytons, Neales,
and many others directly descended from or connected with the
great families of England, might set up their claims of distinguished
descent with any.

Some of the Old Homes are referred to herein, but many have
disappeared not only from view, but memory itself fails to conjure
up their images.

ACQUINTON CHURCH.

There were four old churches in King William County in the
early part of the eighteenth century: one was known as **West
Point" Church, another generally known as **Cat Tail" Church,
**Mangohick** in the extreme upper end of the county, and **Ac-
quinton," not far from the Court House.

Bishop Meade, in his ** Old Virginia Parishes," refers to Acquinton
Church in the following language : * * It is a large old church in
the form of a cross, having the aisles paved with flagstones." He
was probably misinformed as to the shape of the building, the
description, however, agreeing with one of the other old churches
in the county. Acquinton Church was built in 1732, of imported
glazed brick, and was rectangular in shape, with the old-fashioned
pulpit in the form of an inverted bottle just inside the main
entrance. The old high-back pews therefore faced both pulpit
and door, rendering it unnecessary for any one to look around to
see who was coming into church.

It was abandoned by the Episcopalians about one hundred
years ago, and subsequently used by various denominations, until
of late it appears to have fallen exclusively into the hands of
the Methodists, who have repaired it and put on a new roof
(the old pointed one having fallen in), removed the old pfews, and
added a modem pulpit. It was at this church that the celebrated
** Parson" Skyren, about the last of the old line of Episcopal
ministers, preached his eloquent sermons, and so anxious were

j the people to hear him that **they brought seats with them and

I filled the aisles" whenever he officiated.

\ Butler Edwards and Elizabeth Ellett were married here, as also

their daughter, Judith, who married James Hill Neale. Parson

8

OLD HOMES.

Skyren was the personal friend of the last mentioned couple, and
their daughter, Lucy Skyren, was named for the loved pastor and
his wife, Lucy Moore, daughter of Bernard Moore, of Chelsea.

**The Good Parson" moved to Hampton, Virginia, where he
died and is buried, and Acquinton Church was allowed to go to
ruin. The walls are the same as erected in 1732, and are prob-
ably safe to stand another centurj' or two.

ASPEN GROVE.

An old homestead of the Littlepages, and the former residence
of Hardin Littlepage, who was one of the Justices in King William
County in 1799, afterwards the residence of his son. Colonel
Hardin Littlepage, the father of Cornelia Todd Littlepage, who
married Robert Christopher Hill, the present occupant. The house
is over one hundred years old, and is a very roomy and com-
fortable structure.

AUBURN.

This was the old home of Wilson Coleman Pemberton, and
built by him over one hundred years ago. It is a very substantial
structure, with massive timbers, and built in the plain style of
the period.

In the front yard is a stone pedestal, which once supported a
marble basin, the old baptismal font of Acquinton Church, sent
over from England when the church was built in 1732. When
the old Episcopal churches in Virginia were practically abandoned
in the latter part of the last century this relic found its way to
the Pemberton place, and it is stated that old Wilson Pemberton
and his sons irreverently washed their toil-stained hands in the
basin for many years when returning from their labor in the field.
The basin has long since disappeared, but the pedestal remains to
show to what base uses we may come.

OLD HOMES.

BROADNECK.

The old home of the Page and Croxton families. The present
house was built about one hundred years ago by James Croxton,
whose tombstone is in the family graveyard. The inscription reads :

In Memory of

James Croxton, Died July 7, 1837,

In the 54th year of his age.

Honoured and loved in life, lamented in death.

BROOKLYN.

Present home of John Duval Edwards, but formerly the prop-
erty of Jeremiah Hooper, who lived here over one hundred years
ago. He was engaged in the wagon-making and blacksmithing
business, among other things, as is evidenced by his claim proven
against the estate of the first Ambrose Edwards, for whom he
worked. He was an intelligent man, and much respected by his
neighbors.

CHERRY GROVE.

Near the center of King William County, not far from the Court-
House, on a slight eminence, stands the original homestead of the
Edwards family. The old mansion is built after the early colonial
style, and is almost exactly similar to the home of the Washingtons
at Bridges Creek.

It was built by Ambrose Edwards, the immigrant, about the
middle of the eighteenth century, on a tract of land comprising
about four thousand acres, ** granted him by the King" of England,
and was called ** Cherry Grove,'* from a line group of cherry trees
which formerly grew around the old house.

The place has changed but little. The bricks in the foundation

and great old chimneys were brought over from England, and the

timbers and laths were hewn from logs. The nails were fashioned

10

OLD HOMES.

COOL SPRING.

The homestead of Colonel Edmund Littlepage. The old house
has been remodeled of late years, and is now occupied by Suth-
erland G. Littlepage, who married Lavinia Con.

Here are buried Colonel Edmund Littlepage and his wife,
besides various other members of the Littlepage family. There
are two tombstones here which have excited considerable interest.
One monument recites that, * * Here lies the body of Captain Henry
Weber, who departed this life on the 14th day of April, 1735,
in the sixty-third year of his age.** There is no evidence of
other parties of this name in King William County, and it would
be curious to know something about the Captain, and what took
him to this out-of-the-way place. The other monument is erected
to the memory of Elder William D. Hunter, who was born in
Louisa County, May 26, 1806, and died at the home of Mr. Warner
Edwards, in King William County, July 6, 1854. Mrs. Sarah A.
Wingo, the daughter of Wilson Coleman Pemberton, is also buried
here.

ELSING GREEN.

This place was originally owned by Colonel William Dandridge,
who married Unity West, and was probably named for the village
and parish of Elsing in Norfolk, England, from which place Colonel
Dandridge came.

The Dandridges, Claibomes, and Brownes intermarried, and
Elsing Green was for a long time the home of William Burnett
Browne, the son of the Honorable William Browne, of Beverly,
Massachusetts, who married Mary, daughter of William Burnett
(son of the famous Gilbert Burnett, Bishop of Salisbury), who was
Provincial Governor of New York and of Massachusetts; bom 1643,
and died 1729. William Burnett Browne was a descendant of Sir
Thomas Browne, who was Treasurer of the Household to Henry VI,
whose son. Sir Anthony, was Standard Bearer to Henry VII, and
whose son. Sir Anthony, was created Viscount Montacute.

12

OLD HOMES.

William Burnett Browne married Judith Carter, and left the
property to his grandson, William Burnett Claiborne, on condition
that the latter should assume his name, which was carried out by
act of legislature.

The old house contained many valuable articles, among them a
room hung with Gobelin tapestry, and a copy of Holbein's picture
of the Viscount Montacute, presented to Bishop Burnett by William
of Orange. There were also many other valuable paintings, and every
fireplace in the house was originally provided with a back plate of
brass representing some celebrated episode in history. There is
only one of the plates left, the death of General Wolfe, with the
inscription ' * In memory of James Wolfe, slain at Quebec, January

1st, 1 779-"

The house has been destroyed by fire twice, but the walls were
so substantially built that they were but little damaged, and are
practically unchanged.

Carter Braxton, one of the signers of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, lived here for some time. He rebuilt the house in 1758,
as is shown by an inscription above the door on the west side,
containing the mitials **C. B. 1758." On the opposite side is
another inscription, **G. B.", probably for George Braxton, father
of Carter Braxton. There is another and more recent inscription
of **R. Gregory, 1842." The house is an extensive one, built in
the form of the letter **H," with wide halls extending from north
to south and east to west, and very high ceilings. During the late
war it was occupied by Federal soldiers, who at one time quartered
their horses in the stone-paved halls, and the property was other-
wise very badly treated. The present owner is Judge Roger
Gregory, of the Faculty of Richmond College, and a lawyer of
distinction. The property has been in the Gregory family over
one hundred years.

In a grove of stately trees, a few hundred yards from the house,
is the family burying-ground containing many monuments, of which
a few are noted, as follows:

Cheerfulness, the result of innocence, always sparkled in her

face, and by the sweetness of her temper she gained universal

good will. Her husband enjoyed in her a dutiful wife ; her

children an indulgent mother; her servants a gentle mistress,

and her acquaintances a faithful friend.

Rest here oppressed by pale disease no more,
Here find that calm thou sought so oft before.
Rest undisturbed beneath this humble shrine,
Angels awake thee with a voice like thine.

The original home of the Waller family in King William County.
The house is situated on the bank of the Mattapony River, and
the land is part of the original grant to John Waller by King
Charles II. The patent is still in existence. The house is more
than one hundred and fifty years old, and has been occupied by
a long line of Wallers.

It was from this place that Benjamin Waller, who married a
Miss Travis, started to Alabama in 1820 in wagons. They were
two months on the road, and settled at Gainesville. They were
the parents of William, John, Judith Page, and Logan Waller.
Mary Waller, of this family, married Thomas Edwards about 1780,
and another daughter married William Burke.

FAIRFIELD.

Part of the original grant to the Ayletts by King Charles II.
The old burial place of the Ayletts is here, and the following
inscriptions are taken from the tombstones :

OLD HOMES.

It is located in Orange County, Virginia, and was built by Judge
Philip Pendleton Barbour, of the Supreme Court of the United
States, in 1825. One of the interesting features of the place was a
laige flower garden surrounded by a serpentine brick wall covered
with English ivy, a form of enclosure rarely found in this country,
but frequently seen in Europe, where ornamentation is added to
utility. This grand old mansion is one of the best examples of
colonial architecture in the State. Its interior arrangement and
decorations are no less striking than its massive exterior.

The location is superb — on an elevation at the foot of the Blue
Ridge — and from its wide portico may be seen the mountains of
Albemarle, and, on a clear day, Montpelier, the home of President
Madison, is visible.

KING WILLIAM COURT HOUSE.

Among the colonial buildings in Virginia few possess the interest
of this old structure, which was built in the early part of the eight-
eenth century, of imported material, and in a fashion now altogether
out of date. The building stands in a space enclosed by a solid
brick wall, and is surrounded by trees as old as itself.

Many of the most prominent lawyers in the early history of the
Colony fought their legal battles here, and great questions involv-
ing the rights and privileges of the early settlers were decided
within its walls. Its old records were mostly destroyed and stolen
during the late war, and a fire subsequently consumed nearly all
that remained. While other counties possess more imposing judi-
ciary structures, it is doubtful if any could produce its equal in
historical reminiscence.

LANGBORNE.

For many years the home of John Pemberton, who built the
present house, a substantial brick structure, in 1845, on the site of
the old Langbome mansion. John Pemberton was doubly con-
nected with the Edwards family, and was a man of great force of
character and ability. His son John was killed in the Civil War,
dying at Richmond from wounds received in the attack on Fred-

ericksburg. His remains lie in the family burying-ground at Lang-
bome, where rest also members of that once noted family. The
tombstones which mark their graves here on the bank of the
Pamunkey River are a connecting link between the past and present
and make the spot celebrated.

The second William Langbome married Elizabeth Claiborne,
and had an only son, William, who died at the age of twenty-two
years, when the name became extinct in Vii^ginia, but the blood
still flows in the descendants of Mary Langbome, daughter of the
first William, who married Warner Throckmorton, from whom are
descended General William Booth Taliaferro, Major Thomas S.
Taliaferro, Judge Beverly R. Welford, junior, Judge Warner T,
Jones, and many others.

MONTVILLE.

A beautiful place near the village of Ayletts, which comprises a part
of the original grant from Charles II to Captain John Aylett,
whose grandson, Philip Aylett, married Martha Dandridge, aunt of
Mrs. General George Washington. The present house was built in
1803 by William Aylett.

George Washington was entertained in the old homestead which

preceded the present house on the memorable trip on which he met

the Widow Custis, whom he afterwards married, and who lived a few
miles distant on the Pamunkey River.

There was formerly an extensive distillery on the place for the
manufacture of peach and apple brandy. Numerous relics are pre-
served here, among them two old colonial measures of brass which
the English Government furnished the various Colonies, and known
as ** Standard Winchester Measures." They are inscribed respect-
ively ** King William J^ peck" and **King William bushel." The
latter weighs between eighty and ninety pounds, and has been twice
stolen from its present owner, first by the captain of a schooner,
who induced a negro to steal it, and carried it to Norfolk, selling it
for ten dollars. Colonel Aylett traced and ultimately recovered
it, and both the negro and the captain were punished at the whip-
ping post before the abolition of that institution in Virginia. It
was stolen a second time and traced to Richmond, and again
recovered.

There is preserved here a sabre, which was carried by one of the
Ayletts in the War of 1812 until broken in a hand-to-hand encounter
with an English sailor; also a pair of duelling pistols, which have a
curious history. It appears that in 1809 young Philip Aylett was
provided by his father with a negro, two horses, five hundred
dollars, and a gold watch, which had been presented to his mother
by Patrick Henry, and young Aylett started for Tennessee to prac-
tice law. He was a very high-spirited young man and full of life.
He soon got rid of his cash, the negro, and his horses, and became
involved in an altercation with Colonel Sam Houston, which resulted
in a duel. Houston furnished the weapons. They fired twice at
each other at thirty paces, but neither was seriously injured, and
they became subsequently such good friends that Houston made
Aylett a present of the pistols. They were broken and disfigured
by Union soldiers during the late war. There is also here a fishing
kit, which has been in the Aylett family for more than two hundred
years, and a liquor case containing six decanters and two goblets,
which has participated in many a celebration and fish-fry in days
gone by.

The watch referred to above is also preserved in the family as
a precious relic.

19

OLD HOMES.

The present owner of the place, Colonel William Roane Aylett,
is directly descended from the West family, whose pedigree is
referred to elsewhere.

MOUNT PLEASANT.

Now owned by James Armistead Robins. The old house is said
to have been built by the Gregory family in 1734.

MOUNT ZOAR.

The old home of the Pollards, now owned by Edward Spots-
wood Pollard, Esquire, previously by his father, Robert Pollard, and
grandfather, Robert Pollard. It is located at Ayletts, a little village
on the Mattapony River. The old house was an imposing stracture,
built by Robert Pollard, who was Clerk of King William County
for over forty years. The house was burned in 1850 by a serving
maid, who was anxious for the family to go to Richmond, where
she had a lover. It was rebuilt, but burned again in 1890, and the
massive chimneys alone remain.

Robert Pollard, senior, married Martha Russell, of French
descent. He had ten sisters and brothers, viz: Anne, Robert,
Kate, Sallie, Edward, Camm, Elizabeth, James, and Richard.
His children were as follows: Robert, Byrd, James Otway, William
George, Evelyn Videlle, Rosalie, Maria Ellen, Ellen B3Td, Eliza
Dandridge (who married Major Beverly B. Douglass), and Edward
Spotswood, married Mary Douglass, in Richmond Coimty.

Robert Pollard, junior, married, 1809, Evelyn B3Td Chamber-
la3me, daughter of Byrd Chamberlayne, of King William County,
buried in the family graveyard along with many others of the same
line. Thomas Chamberlayne, the father of Byrd Chamberlayne,
married Wilhelmina, a daughter of William Byrd, of Westover,
and was lost at sea with his son Otway B3Td in 1799, while Lieu-
tenant in the United States Navy.

RUMFORD ACADEMY.

This is one of the oldest places of education in the State. It
dates its usefulness from the beginning of the present century. It
was built and formerly endowed by the proceeds of a lottery, as
was customary in those days. Spencer Roane was one of the com-
missioners. It was originally intended as a preparatory school for
William and Mary College, and many of the alumni of the latter
received their early training in this old building. It is constructed
of glazed brick imported from England, and is renowned for the
distinguished men and women who learned their early lessons at
•'Old Rumford."

SPRING BANK.

Now occupied by George Haviland Burke, son of Robert Burke
and grandson of Waller Burke, who married Mary (Polly) C.
Edwards. The old family Bible of the Burkes here contains many
interesting items. Little can be learned about the origin of the

2Z

OLD HOMES.

Burke family. William Burke, the first of the name we learn
of, settled in Virginia about 1780. He married a Miss Waller, of
** White Bank," and his sons intermarried with the Edwards*.
They have been for several generations substantial citizens of King
William County, and were conspicuous for their devotion to the
Southern Confederacy, a number of them entering the Confederate
Army, several being killed in the defense of their country in that
great struggle.

SWEET HALL.

This curious old house was built about 1720, and was one of the
Claiborne homesteads for many years. It was afterwards occupied
by the Ruffins, who dwelt here during the Revolutionary War.
The next occupant was a man named Videlle, who committed
suicide in one of the rear chambers. Captain Sterling Lipscomb,
father-in-law of the present occupant, R. T. Puller, then acquired
the property, and it has remained in the Lipscomb family since.

The windows in the house are constructed unusually high in
order to prevent the Indians from shooting arrows in the rooms
from their canoes on the Pamunkey River, which flows at the foot
of the hill on which it stands.

Here is located the old Sweet Hall Ferry, established about
two hundred years ago, and which, by a provision in the Code of
Virginia, is allowed to charge eight cents for each horse and eight
cents for each man carried over, and no more.

There are several noted tombstones on the place:

WATERVILLE.

This place was formerly known as ** Windsor Shade," and is
situated on a high bluff overlooking the Pamunkey River. The
house was built by James Ruffin in 1794, and is very laige and
roomy, with massive foundations of stone. The space between
the walls and weather-boarding is filled with brick and mortar, and
the house was esteemed a fortress in those days.

2S

OLD HOMES.

There is preserved here a piece of pig iron, which was smelted
at the old **Principio Furnace," with which George Washington's
father had the contract for hauling ore in 1750, and as the relic
bears the inscription **Principio 1750," it is probable that Augustine
Washington may have handled this very piece.

The place is now owned by Henry Corr, son of Captain Henry
Corr and Lucy Ammon Lipscomb.

There are on the place the ruins of a much older house, one
of the bricks of which has been preserved bearing date 1600, and
was imdoubtedly imported from England soon after the settlement
of the Colony.

OLD FAMILIES.

ALLEN AND TRIMBLE.

Captain James Trimble was born in Augusta County, Virginia, in
1756, and was reared amidst the dangerous surroundings of pioneer life
in that wild section. His father, John Trimble, appeared before the
Orange Coimty Court in 1740 with Alexander Breckinridge, David
Logan, and others, to prove their importation, and was subsequently
killed by the Indians, and Captain James Trimble was himself taken
prisoner and adopted by one of the chiefs. He was rescued by his half-
brother, Captain John Moffett (their mother being Sarah, daughter
of John McDowell and Magdalena Wood, who married first George
Moffet, second John Trimble), and at the age of eighteen participated
in the bloody battle of Point Pleasant. He afterward served in the
Revolutionary War under General Lewis. He married Jane Allen
about 1780, the daughter of James and (Peggy) Margaret Allen, of
Augusta County, Virginia, who was bom March 15, 1755. Her
father, James Allen, and uncle, Hugh Allen, had been noted Indian
fighters. The latter was killed at the Battle of Point Pleasant.

The Aliens and Trimbles were neighbors and connected by inter-
marriages, and after the Revolutionary War removed to Kentucky,
in the great Company of Emigrants under command of General
Knox, and settled in Fayette County. They were conspicuous in
the early history of Kentucky, and left many descendants. Captain
James Trimble acquired much property and many slaves, and, hav-
ing scruples about the institution of slavery, made application to the
courts at Lexington for power to manumit them. His request was
several times refused, but finally granted through the efforts of
Henry Clay, then a young lawyer from Virginia, who was beginning
to make his powers known.

In the mean time Captain Trimble had made arrangements to
remove to Ohio. He spent several seasons preparing a new home
near Hillsboro, but died before the family settled there in 1804.
His sons became distinguished men. Three of them held commis-

**King** Carter, President of the Colonial Council. Carter Braxton
was educated at William and Mary College. He inherited a con-
siderable estate from his father, which was largely increased by his
marriage, at the age of nineteen, on July 16, 1755, with Judith, the
daughter of Christopher Robinson, of Middlesex, by the consent of
his guardian, Colonel Humphrey Hill, of Hillsborough. He built
the mansion at **Elsing Green" in 1758. His wife died after a
few years, and he traveled in Europe for some time before entering
into the active public life which is too well known to require
repetition here.

BUTLER.

Herveius Walter, who married Maud de Valois, was one of the
companions of William the Conqueror. His brother Hubert was
Archbishop of Canterbury in 1193, and Chancellor, Chief Justice,
and Treasurer of England. Theobald Walter, the son of Herveius,
accompanied Henry II to Ireland in 1171, and was created Chief
Butler of Ireland in 1177, hence the name Butler. The family
rapidly increased in power and wealth and received various titles

and honors.

30

OLD FAMILIES.

James, the seventh Butler and second Earl Carrick, obtained
license for the sum of two thousand marks to marry whom he
pleased, and selected Eleanor, daughter of Humphrey de Bohun,
whose wife was Elizabeth, daughter of Edward I, and his wife the
celebrated Eleanor of Castile. On account of this alliance with the
Plantagenets, James Butler was created Earl of Ormonde.

Thomas the seventh Earl of Ormonde's daughter Margaret mar-
ried Sir William Boleyne, whose daughter Anne was one of the
unfortunate wives of Henry VIII, by whom she was beheaded.

Walter Butler, of Kilcash, grandson of James, ninth Earl of
Ormonde, had a son Thomas, who succeeded to the title as eleventh
Earl, his elder brother dying without male issue ; but his estates
were confiscated by King James, and he was for eight years a
prisoner in the Fleet. He regained his liberty and married Helena,
eldest daughter of Edmund, Viscount Montgarret, and had a son
Thomas and several daughters.

Governor Alexander Spotswood was a favorite of the old Duke
of Marlborough, and through his influence was appointed Governor,
of the Virginia Colony. He married Butler Brayne, the grand-
daughter of the above Sir Walter Butler, eleventh Earl of Ormonde,
and came to Virginia. One of their daughters, Anne Butler, mar-
ried Bernard Moore, of Chelsea, King William County, and left
many noted descendants, among them Anne Butler, who married
Charles Carter, of ** Shirley," grandparents of General Robert E.
Lee; Lucy, who married Reverend Henry E. Skyren, the noted
minister of Acquinton Church, and others. Mrs. Bernard Moore
was a great beauty. Mrs. Robert Dunbar, of Falmouth, a grand-
daughter of Lady Spotswood, left a description of how **she
appeared in a fawn-colored satin, square in the neck, over a blue
satin petticoat, with satin shoes and buckles to match on her very
small and beautifully shaped feet."

Representatives of this family settled in Virginia at a very early
date. There were several branches resident there early in the
seventeenth century. There was an Edward Butler living in Vir-
ginia, February i6, 1623 ; Francis Butler in the muster of Govern-
or's men at * * Pasbehaighs, " who came in the ** Bonaventure, " aged
eighteen; George Butler came in the ** David" from Gravesend,

Wealthean Butler, the wife of Ambrose Edwards, is difficult to
determine. She was known to be related to Colonel Reuben Butler,
of the Revolutionary War, and is said to have been descended from
the same family as Jane Butler, the first wife of Augustine Wash-
ington, and whose father was Major Caleb Butler, of Westmoreland.
Isaac A. Butler, now living at Ante, Virginia, is imdoubtedly of this
family, and his father, W. R. Butler, was the son of William Butler,
who had a brother Percival Butler, who went to Kentucky. From
a reliable source it is learned that this family intermarried with the
King William Edwards about the middle of last century {videy
Ambrose Edwards, who married Wealthean Butler). These Butlers
claim descent from the Butlers of **Dunboyne" and ** Ormonde,"
mentioned as among the most eminent of the Anglo-Norman families
in Ireland. The coat of arms of the Virginia Butler family is the
same, and later was quartered with that of the Beckwiths, with whom
they intermarried. The name of Peirce or Percival is frequently
repeated in the descendants, and the line is a noted one. John
Bartholomew Depuy, one of the Huguenot emigrants, had a son,
James L. Depuy, who married Amanda Butler, and his son Reuben
married a Ruffin. Thomas Butler was one of the executors of
William Aylett's will. Mr. Lawrence Washington had a silver
waiter with the Butler-Beckwith arms engraved thereon. Beckwith
Butler was guardian of the children of Margaret, the widow of
William Robinson. Lawrence Butler, William Aylett, and John
Washington were witnesses to the deed from Roger Gregory con-
veying the Mount Vernon estate to Augustine Washington in 1726.
Lawrence Washington left **his Godson, Lawrence Butler, a tract
of land adjoining Meredith Edwards" in 1697.

CLAIBORNE.

The name Clibume, now spelled Claiborne, is first mentioned
in the Domesday Survey Book, a. d. 1086, Volume i, 234, where
the Leicestershire possessions of Robert de Veci, who inherited the
lands of Ethelric, are mentioned. The property was divided into
two Moieties, Clibum Tailbois and Clibum Hervey — the former
derived from the Barons of Kendal, the latter from Hervey de Veci
le Breton. There is some obscurity about the descent in the
eleventh and twelfth centuries, but the line appears to be as follows:

various families in King William County, the Dandridgee,

COLE.

There were several William Coles in the early history of the
Colony. William Cole came to Virginia in 1618, aged nineteen
years, and was Burgess for ** Nutmeg Quarter," in Warwick County,
1629. He is thought to have been the father of William Cole, of
the Council, and they were supposed to be descended from Sir
William Cole, First Provost of Ennis-Killen, who commanded a
regiment against the Rebels in Ireland in 1643.

Mr. Richard Gregory, bom January 12, 1758, son of Roger
Gregory and Mary Cole Claiborne, left a written statement, which
was prepared by him, and which reads as follows:

*« There were two sisters, named Mary Cole and Jane Cole. Mary
married a Mr. West, a lineal descendant of Lord Delaware, by whom she
had two sons, John and Thomas West. After the death of Mr. West,' Mary
married Ferdinand Leigh, by whom she had a son and a daughter, named
William and Mary. William Leigh married a Miss Watkins, of Chesterfield,
by whom she had Benjamin Watkins Leigh and several daughters. Jane
Cole, the other sister, married Colonel Nathaniel Claiborne, by whom she
had two sons, viz., Thomas and William, and five daughters, namely, Mary
Cole and others. Mary Cole Claiborne married Roger Gregory, by whom
she had Richard and four other sons, and a daughter named Mary Cole, who
married Herbert Claiborne, of Dinwiddle, and died after the birth of her son,
Gregory Claiborne. After the death of Colonel Nathaniel Claiborne, Jane

COLEMAN.

This family had many representatives in the latter half of the
last century. We do not find any connected data. James Coleman
was Godfather of Ambrose Madison, brother of President James
Madison, March 2, 1756. Jane Coleman, who married John Pem-
berton, was probably the daughter of Robert Coleman, of Culpeper
County, who married Sarah Anne Saimders, and died about 1793.
The town of Fairfax, now Culpeper Court House, was founded on
fifty acres of his land in 1759. Sarah Anne Coleman married
Charles Buller Claiborne, son of William Stirling Claiborne and

DANDRIDGE.

Colonel William Dandridge, of **Elsing Green," and Colonel
John Dandridge, of New Kent, were probably brothers. They
settled on opposite sides of the Pamunkey River. They bore the
same arms as the Dandridges of Great Malvern, Worcestershire,
England.

Colonel William Dandridge built a wharf at Hampton in 1717.
He married Euphan, probably the daughter of James Wallace, and
widow of Wilson Roscoe. He moved to King William County prior
to 17 19 (his first wife being dead), and married Unity, daughter of
Colonel Nathaniel West. He was a member of the Council in 1727,
and subsequently received a Commission in the Royal Navy, and
commanded the ** South Sea,*' and participated in the attack on
St. Augustine and the siege of Carthagena. He died 1743. Of his
children, Captain Nathaniel West Dandridge married Dorothea,
daughter of Governor Alexander Spotswood ; William married
Agnes, daughter of Colonel Francis West ; Martha married Philip

DICKEY-DUNBAR.

The Dimbars, of Scotland, are descendants of the Earls of
March and Dunbar, who claimed descent from Gospatrick, Ruler of
Northumberland, one of the seven Saxon Kingdoms. Hancock
Dunbar Edwards, who lived in Saline County, Missouri, in July,
1880, stated that he was then seventy-five years old, and that he
was descended through his mother from the above family, and
claimed a connection with Colonel Dunbar, who is frequently men-
tioned in the ** Dinwiddle Papers." Colonel Dunbar was in com-
mand of the British troops who suffered so severely in * * Braddock's
Defeat." Other Dunbars settled in the Virginia Colony.

Daniel Dunbar was one of the appraisers of the estate of
Matthias Hubard, in York County, 1667.

Robert Dunbar was a Scotch merchant at Falmouth, and prior
to 1794 married Elizabeth Gregory, daughter of Francis Thornton
and Anne Thompson, and granddaughter of Francis Thornton and
Frances Gregory, the daughter of Roger Gregory and Mildred
Washington.

Reverend Hancock Dunbar was minister in Saint Stephen's
Parish, King and Queen County, 1754 to 1774.

James Dickey married Joanna, the daughter of Reverend Iverson
Lewis, bom 1741, and Frances Byrd, of King and Queen County.
One of the Dickeys married a daughter of Reverend Hancock Dun-
bar, and had two daughters, Mary Dunbar and Barbara.

James Edwards, son of Ambrose Edwards, the first, married
Mary Dimbar Dickey, and it was their son, Hancock Dunbar
Edwards, who is referred to at the beginning of this sketch. Mary
Dimbar Dickey's sister Barbara never married.

EDWARDS.

The name of Edwards is frequently found in the early annals of
Virginia, and the first of the name appears to have reached the
Colony soon after the settlement at Jamestown. There was a John
Edwards, of *' Northumberland House," in 1653, from whom the
descent of many Edwards' in Virginia is claimed, and the families of
Hayden Edwards in Kentucky and Ninian Edwards in Illinois are
doubtless descended from that source. Then there was a Richard
Edwards in Virginia in 1694, from whom was probably descended
Thomas Edwards, the old Clerk of Lancaster County, Leroy
Edwards, Griffin Edwards, and many others of that line ; but so far
as our investigation extends there is no direct connection between
the above families and the King William Edwards', whose line is
recorded here, unless we except the probable common descent of
all the Edwards' from the ancient family of that name in Wales,
where the Edwards can be traced back for more than six hundred
years.

The King William Edwards family dates back to about 1745,
when Ambrose Edwards settled in King William County, Virginia,
**on a large tract of land granted by the King," and while we have
been unable to discover any mention of said grant in any of the
available records, yet it is asserted that the original patent is in
existence, and is * * supposed to be among the papers of the Virginia
Historical Society." The King William County Records have been
twice destroyed by fire, and the ordinary sources of information in
that direction are cut off. However, it is known that Ambrose
Edwards possessed a large tract of land, comprising several thousand
acres, which was divided among his heirs at his death, and a great
deal of it is still held by his descendants.

It appears that some time previous to 1745 **a clergyman of the
Church of England," named Edwards, emigrated to America with
his three sons, named respectively Robert, John, and Ambrose.

41

OLD FAMILIES.

Robert settled in New York and acquired considerable property.
(See Edwards' Estate.) John settled in South Carolina, married,
and left numerous descendants scattered throughout the Southern
States. Ambrose located in King William County, Virginia, where
he continued to reside until his death in 1810. It is said that his
father and brother Robert visited him about 1770. Nothing further
is known of the father, except the tradition that he died in America.
Robert returned to England.

Ambrose Edwards was bom in England, about 1726. Emigrated
to Virginia about 1745, and settled in King William County. He
built a fine colonial mansion which he called ** Cherry Grove," and
the quaint old house, now gray with age, which remains in very fair
condition to this day, has been occupied by five generations of the
Edwards family. He married, about 1750, Wealthean Butler,
whose origin is undetermined. There are a number of the descend-
ants of the Butler family still living in this and the adjoining counties,
but their family records do not extend so far back. The name has
been repeated so often in the descendants that it is surmised her
family was of some distinction, and as her husband was educated,
refined, and of ample means, it is hardly likely he would have
chosen a wife with other characteristics. It is noted that the first
wife of Augustine Washington was Jane Butler, the daughter of
Colonel Caleb Butler, and there is a tradition in the family that
Wealthean was descended from the same stock. The fruit of this
marriage were five sons and four daughters, who grew to mature
age and intermarried with the neighboring families, and all of whom
left descendants.

Ambrose Edwards lived in considerable style, and in addition to
farming conducted a mill, distillery, and perhaps other enterprises.
His old papers show the magnitude and latitude of his transactions,
and his shipments of tobacco to Page's Richmond Warehouse were
not the least important. His hogsheads were marked with his
monogram, M- He was also a money lender, as evidenced by
sundry notes and bonds held by him at his death.

Late in life he contracted a second marriage with Barbara, the

widow of Henry Finch, and entered into an ant^-nuptial agreement,

of record in King William County, which, among other provisions,

42

OLD FAMILIES.

recites : * * Whereas, a marriage is shortly to be had and solemnized
by the blessing of Almighty God, by and between the said Ambrose
Edwards and Barbara Finch, and whereas, the said Barbara Finch
is possessed of considerable estate, both real and personal," it was
agreed that she should have full control of her own property, and
in the event of his prior demise she was to make no claim on his
estate. This contract was recorded December 22, 1800. There
was no issue from this marriage. He died the latter part of Decem-
ber, 18 10, and was buried in the family burying-ground at ** Cherry
Grove." His sons, Samuel, James, Ambrose, and Thomas were
appointed executors of his will, and his large estate was divided and
settled during the ensuing year. The original papers, showing many
curious details, are in existence, and there is abundant evidence of
his position and worth. He was attended in his last illness by his
friend. Doctor William P. Claiborne, whose bill for services is a
peculiar document. Some of his old accounts show the curious
customs of the times. He always laid in just before Christmas a
goodly supply of whisky and Antigua rum, a suggestion of egg-nogg
and Yule-tide festivities. His coffin was furnished by Reuben
Dugar, and cost twelve dollars, the same amount being paid to the
minister. Reverend John Mill, who officiated at his funeral, on which
occasion it appears twenty gallons of wine, besides other refresh-
ments, were consumed by his sorrowing friends.

The last visit of Doctor Claiborne was on December 23, 18 10,
probably the date of his death, and his will was probated in January
following. He was buried in the old family graveyard at * * Cherry
Grove," where a stone formerly marked the place, but is no longer
perceptible.

Regarding the English ancestry of this family much inquiry has
been made without tangible results. Ambrose Edwards brought
with him a seal, or coat-of-arms, which was handed down in the
family, but finally lost or stolen, and only indifferent descriptions can
be obtained. In this connection the following account of the
Edwards', of York, has been received, and the arms correspond
somewhat with the vague descriptions of Ambrose Edwards' seal.

porary with the English clergyman who came to America, bringing

vices and foibles of mankind.

EDWARDS* ESTATE.

There has been a tradition in the Edwards family for several
generations that there is a vast estate situated in New York City
which would eventually revert to the heirs of Ambrose Edwards, of
King William County. Intense research and correspondence with
several hundred of his descendants fails to develop any actual facts
on which such a pretense is founded. The tradition is that Robert
Edwards, a brother of Ambrose, was engaged in various filibustering
expeditions, commanding privateers and gaining much filthy lucre by
his depredations on the high seas in the service of his Britannic
Majesty, George HI, of inglorious memory. He made his head-
quarters in New York, and is said to have invested largely in lands
on Manhattan Island.

About the beginning of the struggle for independence of the
Colonies, the said Robert Edwards, being a pronounced Royalist,
decided it would be safer and better to be away from America, and as
the story goes, he leased his large holdings in New York for ninety-
nine years and retired to England, where he subsequently died
without marrying and intestate.

Prior to his departure he visited his brother Ambrose in Virginia,
and it is thought that he acquainted him with his affairs. However
this was, it became early the talk in the family that there was such
an estate, and the flame was kept alive until, about 1868, a news-
paper advertisement calling on the heirs of Robert Edwards to
communicate with certain parties in New York caused a great flut-
ter, and a lawyer was engaged to look into the matter. His report
was not encouraging, and while he gave an opinion that there was
such an estate, the necessary proofs were apparently unavailable,
and the proposition to raise some thousands of dollars for investigation
in England, etc. , was received rather coldly and the subject dropped.

.Since that time periodical mention has been made of the

DOCTOR LEMUEL EDWARDS.
«*By their fruits ye shall know them."

The subject of this sketch was bom in King William County,
Virginia. His mother died when he was ten years of age, and his
father seven years later. He was employed in a store at King
William Court House at thirteen, and a year after Baylor Temple,
of Walkerton, employed him, and gave him an interest in the busi-
ness two years later. Remaining here three years longer he retired
with one thousand dollars cash, and having early developed a taste
for learning, which was encouraged by his friends, among whom
was Sherwin McCrea, the eminent lawyer, he went to Richmond
and in due time graduated at the Richmond Medical College. He
then took a diploma in the Botanico-Medical College, of Columbus,
Ohio, returned to Virginia and began the practice of medicine,
which he has followed with eminent success for over fifty years in
King William, New Kent, and King and Queen counties.

His early convictions and deep studies induced in him a great
desire to spread the Gospel, and he has devoted many years to the
work of the Master. He has been instrumental in building three
churches, the last on his own land at Lanesville, and has preached
in two of them regularly for many years past. He has been a
prolific writer, principally on religious subjects, and published several
books. For nearly seventeen years he served on the bench in the
King William County Court, and decided many important cases.
On one occasion he issued a warrant against General Robert E. Lee
for Judge Roger Gregory, who had just begun the practice of law.
In the settlement of the case, General Lee being in Doctor Edwards*
office, declined some sUght liquid refreshment, though the season
was oppressive, so strict were his views on temperance. This epis-
ode recalls the story of the flask of brandy given the General by his
mother when he started on the Mexican campaign, and which he
returned to her unopened after the war was over. Doctor
Edwards has also been engaged in mercantile pursuits, and in the
milling and lumber business. He lost heavily by the war, but
congratulates himself that he is now **poor enough to enter the

nine years and retired to England, where he subsequently died
without marrying and intestate.

Prior to his departure he visited his brother Ambrose in Virginia,
and it is thought that he acquainted him with his affairs. However
this was, it became early the talk in the family that there was such
an estate, and the flame was kept alive until, about 1868, a news-
paper advertisement calling on the heirs of Robert Edwards to
communicate with certain parties in New York caused a great flut-
ter, and a lawyer was engaged to look into the matter. His report
was not encouraging, and while he gave an opinion that there was
such an estate, the necessary proofs were apparently unavailable,
and the proposition to raise some thousands of dollars for investigation
in England, etc. , was received rather coldly and the subject dropped.

Since that time periodical mention has been made of the

the country have held meetings and undertaken to devise means to
unearth the hundreds of millions said to be slumbering in the
metropolis.

Designing persons have not failed to take advantage of the
credulity of the supposed heirs, and recent interest in the subject
has been awakened only to discover the machinations of ** confi-
dence " operators who claim to have the proofs, but who demand
large sums for their information.

** Where there is so much smoke, there must be some fire," and
it is reasonably certain that a tradition so widely disseminated and
so accurately balanced as this must be based on some fact. But to
build any hopes on the outcome of such an idea would be false and
even cruel. If, in the course of time, the evidence confirming the
tradition should come to light, it will at least be easier, with the
information in this volume, to locate the heirs; and as so much has
been discovered in the short space of a year regarding this remark-
able family which was before unknown^ or rather hidden from sight,
it may be that other discoveries will be made which may draw back
the veil and reveal a rich inheritance.

In the mean time a little seasonable advice will not be amiss :
Let all our old people remember that they have managed to sur-
mount the difficulties of life without the assistance of the ill-gotten
gains of Robert Edwards, and the younger ones who have the
battle of life before them may profit by their example and be
sure that no acquisition of wealth in this way can be half so sweet
as the reward they may expect from their own honest, earnest efforts
to build up a competence, and it will be much better if the whole
subject is ignored and forgotten.

ELLETT.

The origin of this family has not been learned. The name is
common in Virginia, and some authorities have surmised that Aylett
and EUett were at one time identical.

We find, however, that early in the eighteenth contury there
lived in King William County a certain Ellett whose first name has
been lost, but he was known to be the father of two sons, from
whom the descent is traced :

FONTAINE.

John de la Fontaine, born in the year 1500, and who was assas-
sinated in 1563, was the father of James de la Fontaine, who was
bom in the year 1550, and died in 1633, at the age of eighty-three
years. The latter was the father of James de la Fontaine, who was
the youngest child and only son, and who was bom in the year 1603.
With him the de la, indicative of the nobility of the family, was
dropped. He married Marie Chaillon, of Pons, in Saintonge, in
the year 1641, and was the father of James Fontaine, who was
bom at Jenouille, on the 7th of April, 1658, and married Anne
Elizabeth Boursiquot on the 8th of February, 1686, in the parish
church of Barnstable, England, having escaped with her from

51

OLD FAMILIES.

France and landed there on December i, 1685. This James Fon-
taine was the father of Peter Fontaine, who was bom in 1696 at
Taimton, England, and also of John and Mary Fontaine.

Peter Fontaine was first married to Elizabeth Fourreau, a grand-
daughter of Captain Bouley, on the 29th of March, 17 14. He emi-
grated to Virginia, accompanied by his wife, in February or March,
171 5. Upon the death of his first wife he was married the second
time to Elizabeth Wade, in Virginia. From this second marriage
sprang Aaron Fontaine, who was bom November 30, 1753, and died
April, 1823, who was married three times, first, to Barbara Terrell,
May 17, 1773. Elizabeth Fontaine, their daughter, was bom Septem-
ber 5, 1780, and on the 19th of May, 1799, was married to Edmund
Bullock. She died i6th of June, 1807. There was issue of this
marriage, Judge William Fontaine Bullock, Edward Bullock, and
Mary Anne Bullock. Mary Anne Bullock married Thomas Hart
Shelby, a son of Grovemor Isaac Shelby, of Kentucky. Their
daughter, Elizabeth Fontaine Shelby, married William Bury Kinkead,
the parents of Elizabeth Shelby Kinkead, who kindly furnished the
following sketch (see also Kinkead Excursus):

* ' The de la Fontaines belonged to the ancient nobility of France,
but they developed none of the degeneracy which often results from
long material advancement and prosperity. They were vigorous
people, whose nobility of thought and aspiration had the fitting
accompaniment of nobility of station, and like the truly noble, they
comprehended the relation of material and spiritual things, and were
ever ready to sacrifice the lower for the higher. Thus, we find
members of this family prominent among those true, earnest,
enlightened spirits who became the leaders of Protestantism in
France.

* ' John de la Fontaine was bom about the year 1 500. His father,
dislikmg the usual idle life of the nobility, obtained for his son a
commission in the household of Francis I, in what was called * * Les
Ordonnances du Roi." The young officer conducted himself with
such honor and uprightness that he retained his commission through
the reigns of Francis I, Henry II, and Francis II.

' ' Both John and his father had early become converts to Protest-
antism, and during the troublous times which followed the spread of
the reformed religion they were protected by the high position the
former occupied at court. But the second year of the reign of
Charles IX, John voluntarily resigned his commission and retired to

52

OLD FAMILIES.

his paternal estates in Maine. The Edict of Pacification had been
passed, and the Protestants believed that oppression was ended.
But their faith was deceived. Persecution, before open and with a
show of justice, was now practiced with the cunning cruelty of
secrecy. Great animosity was felt by the Catholic party to John de
la Fontaine, who, by his elevated position, gave strength to the
Protestants* cause. Assassins were sent to his house, and he was
murdered (1563). His wife, trying to intercede for her husband,
was murdered also, as was a faithful valet. The children, three
boys, fled from their home and this awful tragedy in the midnight
and made their way to Rochelle. In one moment they had been
bereft of every thing except their pure faith, their intellectual
strength, and their noble bearing. But the story of their lives indi-
cates the reward which follows uprightness and earnest ability.
Even the old material fortune was gained again to the family.

* * With James, grandson of John, the de la, indicative of nobility,
was dropped from the name. This James, a minister of the reformed
religion, was a man of high spiritual and intellectual attainments.
But his son James, also called to the ministry, was. perhaps, the
most brilliant of the family. He possessed high courage and lofty
characteristics of mind and soul, which enabled him to fulfill his
unique and thrilling life. After the revocation of the Edict of
Nantes he determined to leave friends, country, and fortune for
his faith. He succeeded in escaping from France, taking with him
his promised wife, Anne Elizabeth Boursiquot, to whom he was
married on the 8th day of February, 1686, in the parish church at
Barnstable, England. The actual occurrences of his life were like a
romance.

' * Early in the eighteenth century the thoughts of the Fontaines
turned to America. James never visited the New World, which
was to become the home of his descendants. His son John, who
had been an English officer, was the first to make the voyage. He
purchased a plantation in Virginia, and sent for his brother Peter,
who had been ordained a clergyman of the Church of England.
They were soon joined by other members of the family, among
the number Matthew Maury, who had married their sister, Mary
Anne. They soon obtained honored positions in their new home,
and their descendants have been people of distinction in Virginia
and Kentucky."

It is mentioned as a curious mutation of circumstances that the
great persecutor of the Huguenots, Anne, due de Montmorenci, Gen-
eral in command of the Royal Soldiery at Languedoc, France, is

FREEMAN.

Captain Bridges Freeman was the first of the name in Virginia as
far as the records show. He was Burgess from Pasbehaighs in 1629-
30. He petitioned the Council to allow him to remove from Martin's
Hundred, which was too much exposed to attacks from the Indians,
and in 1632 he was Burgess from Chickahpminy, and James City in
1647, in which year he was appointed Collector of Revenue, Adjutant
in 1652, and member of the King's Council. It was probably his
son. Bridges Freeman, who was Justice in James City in 1680.

Henry Freeman, of New Poquoson, York County, married Bar-
bara, daughter of Christopher Calthorpe, subsequent to October 24,
1662. This Henry Freeman's will was probated May 16, 1720.
He was the son of Henry Freeman, who died April 5, 1676, and
grandson of Henry Freeman, mercer, of Chipping Norton, England.

Humphrey Freeman is referred to as a servant of Colonel Cal-
thorpe, and in 1662 had six years to serve under his articles, but
which he was satisfying at the rate of sixteen hundred pounds of
tobacco per annum, showing that he was no ordinary servant, but
more likely a tenant farmer.

Robert Freeman married Anne, the daughter of John Robins,
who died 1655, and there was a Captain Freeman in command of a
vessel in the Virginia trade in 1646.

Isaac and Stephen Freeman were soldiers in the Revolutionary
War. In 1776 Isaac Freeman deeded certain land in Louisa
Coimty, Virginia, to Gravett Edwards.

Freeman (i) formerly owned Maddox Hill, at Richmond,
which received its name from her husband, whose farm
included the hill. His widow was a strict Quakeress, and
being apprehensive that her only son would marry out of the
faith, she sold her property and removed to a settlement of
the Friends in Ohio eariy in this century.

a. Captain Samuel Freeman. Son of John Freeman (i). Was a distin-
guished citizen of Richmond for many years. He was bom
September 25, 1795, and died May 10, 1870. He attracted
attention by his heroic efforts in liberating the convicts from
the burning penitentiary in 1833. He was Captain of the
State militia, and on the memorable visit of Lafayette took
his company, at his own expense, with two cannons, to York-
town to fire the salute of welcome. One of his uncles was
a signer of the Declaration of Independence. He served
for many years as Superintendent of Public Buildings for
the State of Virginia, and on the morning of the evacuation
of Richmond, April 3, 1865, he, in company with the Mayor,
Honorable Joseph Mayo, went out to meet the advancing
Federal Army to secure the protection of private citizens and
property. He married, December 16, 1817, Miss Sarah Har-

OLD FAMILIES.

GREGORY.

The name of Roger and Richard Gregory is a familiar one in the
early history of Virginia. There was a Roger Gregory among the
Soldiers of the Commonwealth in Ireland in 1650, but long before
that a Richard Gregory had settled in the colony, and is mentioned
among the followers of Governor Yeardley at James City in 1620.
He was then about forty years of age. He was probably the same
as the Richard Gregory reported at Fleur de Hundred, February
16, 1623. Richard Gregory was Vestryman in Gloucester County,
1677, and may have been the same as Richard Gregory (i). The
connection between these and the next Gregory of whom we find
record is unknown. John Gregory, tailor, one of the conspirators in
the Rebellion of 1674, in Surrey County, was probably distinct from
John Gregory, pastor of the Upper Parish, Nansemond County,
1680. Then there was an Anthony Gregory, public officer in Glou-
cester Coimty, 1698. Our line begins with :

1. Richard Gregory.' Justice in King and Queen Coonty, February 25,

1699, who was ondoubtedly the father of Roger (2) and
Richard (3).

2. Roger Gregory." Son of Richard Gregory (i). Bom about 1690;

died prior to 1732. Married Mildred, daughter of Lawrence
Washington. On the 17th of May, 1726, Roger Gregory
and Mildred, his wife, deeded the Mt. Vernon estate to
Augustine Washington. They were then residents of Strat-
ton Major Parish, King and Queen County. The witnesses
were William Aylett, John Washington, and Lawrence But-
ler. Issue: Frances, who married, September 3, 1736,
Francis Thornton (see Thornton Excursus); Mildred, who
married, October 28, 1740, John Thornton, and Elizabeth,
who married four times : first, April 29, 1743, Henry Willis,
son of Colonel Henry Willis (who had married her mother);
second, Reuben Thornton; third, Doctor Thomas Walker,
the Explorer, and fourth. Colonel Alcock, of the British
Army. Mildred Gregory, the elder, was the godmother of
General George Washington.

This name appears frequently in the early records of tfre Colony,
and the members were so numerous it is impossible to render a
connected account of the family with the meager data in reach.

A member of the Council and noted character in the early

HUNDLEY.

Among the Huguenot settlers at Manakintown about the year 1700
none had more romantic histories than Bartholomew DePuy and his
wife, the gentle Susanna Lavillon, who escaped from France after most
thrilling adventures. Their daughter Elizabeth married a Hundley
and had a son, Quintus C. Hundley, who married, first, Miss West,
and, second, Miss Tuck. John Hundley, senior, was in the Revo-
lutionary War in the company commanded by Patrick Henry. The
name appears frequently in the Hanover County records, and the
descendants have spread over the Southwest.

JOHNSON.

One of the oldest families in King William County, but owing to
the failure of the living members to respond, our history is con-
fined to but few facts.

KING.

An old family which settled first in Gloucester County, Virginia.
The principal representative in the last century seems to have been
Miles King. The given name Carver, which appears more than
once, suggests a connection with the family of Captain William
Carver, of Bacon's rebellion notoriety, one of the first rebels against
the authority of England, and who was executed for his patriotism
to the Colony. John King patented land in Gloucester County, Octo-
ber 10, 165 1.

KINKEAD.

This family settled first in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
The records there disclose the will of John Kinkead, probated
August 2, 1772, naming his wife Elizabeth, and children, Andrew,
Thomas, and Elizabeth. The latter married John Waugh. He left a
large estate, including many slaves. Also the will of George Kin-
kead, August 30, 1790, naming his wife Jean, and sons, Andrew,
John, and Mathew, daughter Mary, and nephews, Archibald and
Andrew.

A branch of the family removed to Augusta County, Virginia,
about 1750, where George Kinkead was killed by Indians in 1756.

John Kinkead removed from Augusta County, Virginia, to Ken-
tucky, and settled near Danville in 1779. Two of his sons had pre-
ceded him in Clarke's Expedition in 1776.

There is on record in Woodford County the will of John Kin-
kead, dated July 20, 18 17, naming his wife Margaret, and sons,
Joseph, John, Archibald, who married Anne Quarles (see Edwards'
Genealogy), James, Thomas, and William, and a daughter, Jane, the

wife of Davis, then deceased, and a grandson, Preston W.

Davis.

Captain Joseph Kinkead, the son of Joseph Kinkead, who settled
near Danville, was killed in the Battle of the Blue Licks, and
William Baird, who married the latter's sister, laid out Bardstown,
or Bairdstown, as it was first called.

OLD FAMILIES.

Captain William Kinkead, Lieutenant and Adjutant in Revolu-
tionary War, settled in Woodford County, Kentucky, in 1789. He
was a relative of John Kinkead, of that cx)unty, but in what degree
is not known. They both came to Kentucky from Pennsylvania via
Augusta County, Virginia. Captain William Kinkead married Eleanor
Guy, in Augusta County, and had issue : Margaret, Andrew, Isabella,
Agnes, William, Eleanor, Susannah, Guy, Rebecca, and John.

John Kinkead, the son of Captain William Kinkead, married
Margaret Trotter Blackburn, and had issue : George Blackburn,
Frances Peart, Prudence, Eleanor, and William Bury.

William Bury Kinkead married Elizabeth Fontaine Shelby, and
had issue : Margaret, Thomas, Shelby, George Blackburn, Frances
Peart, Mary Shelby, Shelby, Edward, Eleanor Talbot, and Elizabeth
Shelby, author of a history of Kentucky and other works, and who
kindly furnished the sketches of the Kinkead and Fontaine families
in this volume.

''The Kincaid family, having its seat and origin in Stirlingshire,
is one of the oldest in Scotland. The following is taken from Nis-
bet's Heraldry: *The Kincaids were in possession of Kincaid in
1280, as is proved by a charter extant. Kincaid, Laird of Kincaid,
of Stirlingshire, for his gallant service in rescuing the Castle of
Edinburgh from the English in the time of Edward I, was made Con-
stable of said Castle, and his posterity enjoyed that of3&ce for a long
period, carrying the Castle in their Armorial Bearings in memory
thereof to this day.' The family from which the American branch
descends left Scotland after the troublous times of 1688, and settled
first in the north of Ireland, from whence several brothers came to
America in 1707, settling at or about Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and
their descendants scattered through Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, and
Tennessee.

* * General William O. Butler said that his ancestors came over
at the same time as the Kincaids, as did the Campbells and Stuarts
also. These families all removed from Carlisle, Pennsylvania, to
Augusta County, Virginia. I find Archibald Stuart, father of the
late Honorable A. H. H. Stuart, among the witnesses to the deed of
sale when, on the 28th of August, 1789, William Kinkead and Elea-
nor, his wife, of the county of Augusta, conveyed to William
Alexander, of the city of Richmond, in consideration of one thou-
sand pounds, three hundred and fifty acres of land on the Calf Pas-
ture River, etc.

OLD FAMILIES.

* * William Kinkead was born in Pennsylvania (I am not absolutely
certain about the State, it may have been Virginia ; but my father
believes that William Kinkead was born before the removal from
Pennsylvania), January 9, 1736 ; died in Woodford County, May 3,
1823. Eleanor Guy was bom August 17, 1740; was married to
William Kinkead, November 30, 1756, and died October 9, 1825.

**The following is copied from my father's (William Bury
Kinkead) narrative, above referred to: *The ancestors of my
grandparents (William and Eleanor Guy Kinkead) were Scotch
people. They left Scotland after the battle of Bothwell Bridge,
and went to Ireland, settling in the northern part of that coun-
try; my grandmother*s people, about four miles out from Derry.
They were devoted Presbyterians, but did not side with either of the
extreme parties of that day. King William represented their ideas,
and they held him in highest admiration. '

**I can well remember, a little boy of ten years of age, standing
by my grandmother, and being delighted to listen to her give the
history of that memorable siege, which she had heard from the lips
of her mother, whose father was in the siege. I knew it all by
heart; and when afterwards I read the splendid description by
Macaulay, Browning and the Montjoy and the Dartmouth were my
familiar friends. ...

** I have heard that my ancestor went to the city to unite in its
defense, his wife remaining in the country. It is not needed I should
detain you with an account of that noble people, and with what they
endured. All know their courage, their unwavering determination,
and their readiness to starve, but never to think of surrendering,
which showed their high religious principles. These qualities still
characterize their descendants in America. (We have in the family
a gill measure which was picked up on the field of Derry by my
ancestor, and preserved by him and his descendants to this present
day.)

**Not a great while after this the ancestors of my grandfather
and grandmother emigrated to the United States. They first came
to Pennsylvania, and soon after moved to Virginia, to the county of
Augusta. My grandfather, William Kinkead, was born in 1736. My
grandmother, Eleanor Guy, was four years younger than he was.*
Here they became active members of the Timber Ridge Church.
They settled, as I have always heard, on a beautiful place, which,
when they determined to come to Kentucky, they sold to Mr. Will-
iam Alexander, the father of Sir William Alexander, who was later
on rtrom 1824-31) Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer Court in
England. Here they were living when my grandmother was cap-

one, and, being thought securer from the Indians at that time, many
persons had placed goods in their charge. My grandfather was away
from home when, most unexpectedly, a half dozen Indians broke in
upon his family. As hastily as possible they snatched up every thing
they could find, and hurried off with my grandmother and her three
children, a girl of seven, a boy of four, and a girl of two. They
made my grandmother carry the little girl ; a young Indian took
charge of the little boy. Finding this diild troublesome, they re-
mained behind with him, and my grandmother saw him no more.
They were in great haste to get away ; a council was held as to the
killing of the little girl, but when they asked my grandmother if she
thought her hair would be black, and she assured them it would be,
they determined to save her. That they might travel faster, they
took the child from my grandmother, and gave her a saddle to carry
instead, which left her arms free, and so she could move more quickly.
They thus pushed on, crossed the Ohio, and proceeded to their camp
on the Muskingum. Here she was adopted by the chief as his
child, and thereafter secured the greatest kindness. But her oldest
child died, and her little daughter was kept from her. Three months
after her capture a son was bom to her. (This child was named An-
drelw for the little boy who had been killed by the Indians. Later
on a daughter was named Margaret for the one who had died during
the Indian captivity. ) When this occurred she left the camp attended
by an old Indian woman who was very kind to her ; and during the
whole time of her captivity they never failed to treat her with the
greatest consideration.

* * A great many persons had been carried off by the Indians from
Pennsylvania as well as from Virginia, and an expedition was set on
foot to follow the Indians to the Muskingum. Colonel Bouquet
took charge of it, and Colonel Lewis, if I remember right, had
charge of the Virginia Volunteers (this was Colonel Charles Lewis,
of Cedar Creek, see Lewis Excursus) ; my grandfather was among
them. They marched to the Indian town, and the Indians agreed
to surrender the prisoners. My grandfather soon found his wife,
but their joy was abated because their little girl who had been
taken from her mother had not yet been brought in to them. My
grandmother had her infant child in her arms, whom her husband
had never seen. Finally a little savage girl was brought in. She
fixed her gaze intently upon this little girl, and her mother's heart
yearned to it ; gradually the features rose to her memory ; she all at
once dropped the infant, seized the little girl, and hugging her to
her bosom ran off with her alone. (In Bouquet's Expedition, page
79, there is an account of this event.) She then exhibited to her

husband certain marks by which they could positively know their
child. That little girl, Isabella Kinkead, was the great-grandmother
of the fascinating Eva Douglas, now Mrs. John S. Wise, of New
York.

** After their return home, in 1778, my grandfather visited Ken-
tucky. He came through Lexington, and he saw the beautiful coun-
try of Woodford. He then returned to Virginia, and when Com-
wallis and Tarleton were ravaging Virginia, and things there seemed
discouraging, these Scotch-Irish Presbyterians volunteered to go into
service ; they elected my grandfather their captain. * In March,
1777, a company commanded by Captain William Kincaid (the spell-
ing does not seem to have changed until after the Revolution) and
Lieutenant James Steele marched from Staunton to the west fork
of the Monongahela to protect the frontier from the Indians. ' * In
178 1 a company commanded by Captain William Kincaid, Lieuten-
ant Jacob Warwick, and Ensign Jonathan Humphreys served in
Lower Virginia, under Colonel Sampson Matthews * (Augusta County
Records), and they left their families for a six months* campaign, and
remained down at Portsmouth, my grandfather taking with him his
eldest son.

* * After the close of the Revolution, their children having all been
bom — my father, the youngest, was five years old at the time — in
1789, they came to Kentucky. My grandfather bought a beautiful
farm in VV^oodford County, known as *'Cane Spring," on the banks
of the Elkhom. Here he lived most peaceably after his long
troubles and disasters, having settled most of his children around
him, greatly respected by all the people of his county, and here he
died at the advanced age of 84. And there my father died, and
then my brother Frank."

LEWIS.

** General Robert Lewis came over about the year of 1645, en-
tered lands, and made his home in one of the tide-water counties
(Gloucester), His people had been Sheriffs, Sheriff Deputies, County
Lieutenants, Justices, and members of Parliament from Brecknock,
Pembroke, Glamorgan, and other counties of Wales, for centuries
before he founded in this country a hardy and enduring race ; and
to the present day, the name of Lewis belongs to the most promi-
nent of the Welsh landed gentry. He had two sons, John and Will-
iam. John married Isabella Warner, daughter of Captain Augustine
Warner, also a Welshman, who was a member of the House of
Burgesses from York County, in 1652, and again from Gloucester in
1658-59, and a member of the Royal Council in 1659-60. Another

daughter of this Captain Augustine and Mary Warner, Sarah, mar-
ried Colonel Lawrence Towneley, and was the ancestress of * Light
Horse Harry,' and of General Robert E. Lee. Captain Warner had
also a son, Augustine Warner, bom in Virginia, 1642, educated at
the Merchants Tailors' School in London, and at Cambridge, and
who was Speaker of the House of Burgesses in 1676-77, of the
House succeeding the downfall of Bacon's Rebellion, and again in
1680; and was a member of the Royal Council in 1680-81. The
latter was the Colonel Commandant of Gloucester County, and is
known as 'Speaker' Warner, to distinguish him from his father.
His wife, Mildred, daughter of George Reade, who was Secretary of
the Colony in 1637, acting Governor in 1638-39, a member of the
House of Burgesses from James CityCoimty in 1649, ^tnd frequently
thereafter; a member of the Royal Coimcil in 1657, 1658, 1659,
1660, and succeeding years. From the sons of George Reade,
some of the most eminent men of Virginia and the South descended :
one of his descendants was Thomas Rootes, the grandfather of
Howell Cobb, of Georgia. * Speaker' Augustine Warner and Mil-
dred Reade had three daughters. The oldest, Mildred Warner,
married Lawrence Washington, son of Colonel John Washington
and Anne Pope ; Mary, the second daughter, married Colonel John
Smith, of Purtons, son of the Major John Smith, who was Speaker
of the House of Burgesses in 1660, and subsequent years, and
became the ancestress of a family of that and other names, who
were highly respectable as soldiers, scholars, and in public affairs ;
Elizabeth, the third daughter, married John Lewis, son of the above
named John Lewis and Isabella Warner. The second John Lewis
was prominent as a Burgess, as a Councillor, and as a citizen. (His
sons were John, Robert ^ and Charles, the latter a distinguished officer
in the French and Indian wars.) The third John^ who married
Frances Fielding^ was the father of Warner fwno married Eleanor
Bowles, the widow of the son of Governor Goocn), Charles^ and Field-
ing. The latter was the patriotic Colonel Fielding Lewis, of Freder-
icksburg, who rendered valuable service to the cause of independence
in the Revolutionary War, as superintendent and owner of the
manufactory of arms, advancing large sums out of his own abund-
ant means to supply the soldiers of the Colonies in the darkest hour
of their penury and distress. Lawrence Washington and Mildred
Warner had three children, John, Augustine, and Mildred. The
oldest of these, John, married Catherine Whiting, a beautiful woman
and heiress, of Gloucester, and their daughter, Catherine Washing-
ton, was the first wife of her kinsman. Colonel Fielding Lewis, son
of John Lewis and Frances Fielding, Colonel Fielding and Cather-
ine (Washington) Lewis had only one son to live, named John

Augustine, second son of Lawrence Washington and Mildred Warner ;
married for his second wife, Mary Ball ; their oldest son was George
Washington (President of the United States) ; their only daughter,
Betty Washington, was the second wife of Colonel Fielding Lewis,
by whom she had a numerous progeny, notable in themselves and
their descendants. Mildred, the only daughter of Lawrence Wash-
ington and Mildred Warner, married, first, Roger Gregory, by whom
she had three daughters, Mildred, Frances, and Elizabeth, who
married three brothers. Colonel John, Colonel Francis, and Reuben
Thornton ; she married, secondly. Colonel Henry Willis, the founder
of Fredericksburg, by whom she had a son, Colonel Lewis Willis,
and a daughter, Anne, who married Duff Green. John Lewis, the
son of Colonel Fielding and Catherine (Washington) Lewis, was
married five times. First, to Lucy Thornton, youngest daughter of
Colonel John Thornton and Mildred Gregory, by whom he had a
daughter, Mildred (the sister of Lucy Thornton married Samuel
Washington, brother of the President, General William Woodford of
the Revolution, and John Taliaferro of Dissington). Secondly, John
Lewis married Elizabeth Thornton, daughter of Colonel Francis
Thornton and Frances Gregory, by whom he had no child. One of
the brothers of his second wife was the gallant Colonel John Thorn-
ton of the Revolution, who married Jane, daughter of Augustine
Washington, elder half-brother of the President, and was the
ancestor of the wife of Senator James B. Beck, and Mildred, one of
the sisters of his second wife was the wife of Charles Washington,
younger full-brother of the President. John Lewis' third wife was a
daughter of Gabriel Jones, widely known in Virginia during his own
generation, and remembered for years after all who knew him had
passed away as **The Valley Lawyer." The fourth wife of John
Lewis was Mary Anne Fontaine, the widow Armistead, her father of
that excellent Huguenot stock, her mother a Winston, of the same
blood as Patrick Henry, the South Carolina Prestons, and Mrs. Madi-
son. John Lewis* fifth wife was Mildred Carter, widow of Robert
Mercer, a son of the Princeton hero. She was a daughter of Landon
Carter, her mother being a daughter of Colonel Lewis Willis. It is
a noteworthy circumstance that the two first wives of John Lewis
were granddaughters of his great aunt, Mildred Wasnington, by
her first husband, Roger Gregory, and his fifth and last wife, her
great-granddaughter by her second husband, Colonel Henry Willis."

Mansfield, 4th May, 1896.
Dear Doctor:

I have been much interested in the genealogy of the Lewis family (from
the Courier- Journal) which you sent, and find it correct, I think, except in
one instance in which it makes Colonel Fielding iLewis, of Fredericksburg,
and his brother the children of the second John Lewis, of » » Warner Hall, **
and Elizabeth, daughter of » * Speaker '* Augustine Warner. They were the
sons of the third John Lewis, of «* Warner Hall," and Frances Fielding, a
kinswoman of Henry Fielding, of England, hence the name of Fielding in
the Lewis family. Their children were : (i) Warner, who inherited «• Warner
Hall," the father of Colonel Fielding Lewis, of »» Weyanoke," whose portrait
(by request) hangs in the Agricultural Hall in Richmond. He was the first
man who used lime and peas in improving lands in Virginia. (2) Fielding
Lewis, of Fredericksburg, whose second wife was Betty, the sister of Wash-
ington, and (3) Colonel Charles Lewis, of ((Cedar Creek," near Port Royal,
in Caroline County, Virginia (my great-grandfather), from whom are descended
the Lewis* of Essex and Caroline. This Charles Lewis is mentioned in the
genealogy you sent as a distinguished ofiicer in the French and Indian wars.
I have a journal which he kept of those times. He married Lucy, daughter
of Colonel John Taliaferro, of ((Snow Creek," near Fredericksburg. Their
children were : (i) Doctor John Taliaferro Lewis, a distinguished graduate of
Edinburgh University, and settled at ( ( Mulberry Green, " near Brandy-Sta-
tion, Culpeper County, Virginia. (2) Charles Augustine Lewis, Millwood,
Caroline County, Virginia. He was a brave man, and raised and commanded
a cavalry company in the War of 18 12. He married a Miss Battaile, of
Caroline, and left issue. (3) Mary Warner Lewis, a lady of ((rare beauty
and many attractions. " She married, first, Philip Lightf oot, of ( ( Sandy
Point," on James River. They resided at ((Cedar Creek," and had an only
son, the late Philip Lightfoot, of Port Royal. She, secondly, married Doctor
John Bankhead, of Caroline, a nephew of President James Monroe and a
graduate of Edinburgh University, and from these marriages have descended
the Lightfoots and Bankheads of Caroline and Orange.

Doctor John Taliaferro Lewis, son of Colonel Charles Lewis and Lacy
Lewis, nee Taliaferro, married, 3d December, 1782, Susanna, daughter* of
Colonel Francis Waring, of Goldsberry, St. Ann's Parish, Essex County,
Virginia, and Lucy Waring, nee Cocke, daughter of Secretary William Cocke,
of the King's Council, and his wife, Elizabeth Catesby, niece of Mark
Catesby, the nati^ralist, who left the best work on ornithology in the
English language.

John T. Lewis and Susanna Lewis, nee Waring, was bom 13th December,

Lewis Latane, a Huguenot who fled from France to England after the revoca-
tion of the Edict of Nantes. He came to Virginia and settled at *»Langlee,"
South Famham Parish, and took charge of the Parish in 1700. (See Bishop

from Ann Latane and Susanna Lewis, daughter of Colonel Francis Waring,
of Goldsberry.

WARING.

GENEALOGY OF THE WARING FAMILY OF ESSEX COUNTY, VIRGINIA.

Colonel Thomas Waring, '*the emigrant," came from England to Virginia
about the middle of the seventeenth century and settled in Essex County. He
married Elizabeth Gouldman, daughter of Francis Gouldman, a Justice for
Essex in 1696 and 1700. Their children were Francis, bom 23d July, 1717;
Thomas, bom 8th September, 17 19; Betty, bom 14th January, 1720;
Molly, bom 22d December, 1725; Anna, bom 14th October, 1734. Betty
married Thomas Todd, Esq., of King and Queen, from whom have descended
the Todds and Fauntleroys of that county. Molly married Henry Robinson,
of Hanover, a brother of Speaker John Robinson, who represented King and
Queen in the »* House.** They were near kinsmen of the Bishop of London,
and from them are descended the Robinsons, Berkleys, Winstons, and Pollards
of Hanover. Anna married the Reverend John Smelt, of St. Ann's Parish,
Essex. Thomas Waring, the emigrant, was Burgess for Essex in 1736, a
justice and member of the Vestry. He died at Goldsberry in January, 1754.
Colonel Francis Waring was also a justice and vestryman, and was a Burgess
for Essex in 1758-64. He was a signer of Richard Henry Lee's celebrated
protest against the odious Stamp Act, 1765, the first open resistance to
British oppression in America save Bacon's, which occurred just a century
before. ( Vide Bishop Meade's History, Volume H, page 435.) His wife, Lucy
Cocke, was the aunt of Mrs. Bishop Madison, of General William Woodford,
of the Revolution and *» Hero of Longbridge," and of Doctor Walter Jones,
who represented the Northern Neck during Mr. Jefferson's administration,
and was called * » The Luminary of the Northern Neck, " so forcible and per-
spicuous were his writings. Very truly,

MORANCY.

The Morancys claim descent from the noted French family of
Montmorency. Compelled to flee the country to escape the horrors
of the French Revolution, they found refuge in the Island of St.
Domingo, and dropped the prefix **Mont," owing to the extreme
hostility to all titles of nobility.

With the remnant of their scattered fortunes, Jean Francois
Morancy and a brother acquired property in the island and became
extensive planters and slave owners.

85

OLD FAMILIES.

Jean Francois Morancy was married in St. Domingo to Made-
moiselle Honorine Molinery, a granddaughter of Madam Bouligny,
the ceremony being performed by Father Pierre. From this
marriage there were six children, Joseph, Victoire, Melanie, Honore,
Pierre, Thadeus, and Emile. Their tranquillity was of short dura-
tion, however, as the insurrection of the slaves in St. Domingo was,
if possible, worse than the Revolution in France from which they
had escaped.

At the beginning of the Revolution in St. Domingo the Morancys
took refuge in the town of Aux Cayes, where the mother died of
yellow fever. Soon after Jean Francois Morancy, his brother, and
his wife's brother, with other members of the family, were killed by
the negroes when the town was captured and sacked.

Three of the children, Victoire, aged thirteen, Honore Pierre,
about ten, and Emile, five years of age, were saved by a servant
belonging to the family, and finally reached the United States, land-
ing at Charleston, South Carolina, from whence they were sent to
Baltimore. Influential friends received them there, and the history
of their escape and description of their confiscated property in the
Island of St. Domingo, comprising several valuable plantations, was
authenticated and forwarded to the French Government, which
recognized their claim and allowed them an indemnity for many
years.

Honore Pierre, the oldest son, was taken in charge by the Abbe
Mercier, and educated at St. Mary's College, Emmettsburg, Mary-
land. Madam LePeltier, a refugee from France, assumed the
care of Victoire and Emile, and about a year afterwards some rela-
tions or friends took Victoire to the Island of Margalanti, in the
West Indies, where she grew up, married, went to France, and died
there. Madam LePeltier was recalled to France, and Emile entered
the family of Mrs. Harper, a daughter of Charles Carroll, of Carroll-
ton, and was educated with her son, Charles Harper, at Emmetts-
burg, under the patronage of Charles Carroll, who furnished the
means for his graduation in the profession of medicine.

Honore Pierre's name was changed to Honore Perigny, in grati-
tude to Madam LePeltier, whose family name was Perigny. After

the death of the Abbe Mercier, Honore Perigny finished his educa-

tion, and was Professor of French, Greek, and Latin in the college
at Natchez, Mississippi, until 1818, when on the i6th of July of tlmt
y^u" he was married. He afterwards moved to I-ouisiana, where he
entered laiige tracts of land, and at the breaking out of the Civil War
was one of the wealthiest and most prominent planters in that State.
He held many public offices, and died at the advanced age of eighty-
six in 1 88 1. When in the Legislature he named the Parish of
Carroll in honor of his benefactor, Charles Carroll.

His son, Louis Morancy, married Agnes Morancy, a daughter of
Joseph Anderson and Tunstella KLinkead, who was a daughter of
Anne Quarles and Archibald ELinkead.

Emile Morancy, above referred to, married Agnes Kinkead, a
sister of Tunstella, and besides these two intermarriages of the
Quarles* and Morancys, two of Honore Perigny Morancy's grandsons,
Thomas and Honore Jackson, married two of the descendants of the
Quarles', whose ancestor was Tunstal Quarles, who married Susannah,
a daughter of Ambrose Edwards.

NEALE.

The first record of this family in the Colony is dated January 14,
1630, when John Neale, Gent., of Accomac County, received
assignment of a lease for fifty acres of land from Lyonel Roulston,
'*to his loveing friend, John Neale." John Neale carried on a
large business as a merchant on the Eastern Shore, and in a deposi-
tion made by him in 1636 he stated that he was then forty years old.
This would fix his birth about 1596. His wife was Elizabeth, sup-
posed to be the daughter of Henry Southey, of Rempton, Somerset-
shire, England, and a sister of Anne, the wife of Nathaniel Littleton.
John Neale was Vestryman, 1636, and Commissioner Qustice) and
Burgess, 1639, and a candidate for Sheriff in 1638. He was also
appointed Commander of forces for protection against the Indians.
He died about December, 1644, sind his widow subsequently married
David Dale and removed to York County. John Neale left no will
of record in Accomac. He sold his plantation prior to his death
and transferred his personalty to Anne Littleton, wife and attorney
of Colonel Nathaniel Littleton, on the 17th of November, 1644.

87

./

OLD FAMILIES.

On the following day the same property was conveyed to Margaret
Neale, his daughter.

Margaret Neale, who was but a child at her father's death, seems
to have been the only offspring of John Neale and Elizabeth
Southey ; but there is reason to believe that John Neale had been
previously married, as there is mention in the records of a yoxmger
John and a Pearce Neale, also Henry Neale, who died about 1670, and
Captain James Neale, the latter being a resident of Maryland. The
younger John Neale was evidently a graceless young scamp, as
he was sent to Jamestown charged with various offenses. It does
not appear in the records that he was related to the other John
Neale, and it may be he was the John Neale who arrived in the
Colony in 1635, according to ** Hotten*s List of Emigrants."

On the 1 8th of July, 1654, Lieutenant William Waters, Gent.,
was appointed guardian of Margaret Neale, her mother being lately
deceased. It appears from old letters that John Pennell, of London,
advanced William Waters seven pounds sterling to piuxhase clothes,
and sent him to Virginia at the request of his mother, and that
William Waters was a cousin of Captain James Neale, of Maryland.
The latter wrote to his Cousin Robins from Maryland, May 2, 1643,
referring to the payment of the debt to John Pennell, and his
letters indicate his intelligence and integrity.

Captain James Neale, Admiral Royal Navy, before coming to Mary-
land in 1638, ** had lived divers years in Spain and Portugal, and like-
wise was there employed by His Majesty of Great Britain (Charles I),
and His Royal Highness the Duke of Yorke in several Emergent
affairs, as by Commissions herewith presented may Appear." His
wife was Anne, and their daughter, Henrietta Maria, who was bom
while her father was in foreign service, was named for the Queen of
Charles I, to whom her mother had been maid of honor. On the
execution of Charles I, he directed that rings should be presented to
his most faithful friends, and that received by Anne Neale is still
preserved by one of her Maryland descendants.

Henrietta Maria Neale married, first, Richard Bennett, and,
second, Governor Philemon Lloyd, Master of **Wye House."
She left numerous descendants, among them some of the most noted
people in Maryland and Virginia.

OLD FAMILIES.

Richard Bennett was the son of Richard Bennett, the nephew of a
wealthy London merchant, who resided for a time at Delft, Holland,
as Deputy Governor of the English merchants, and was largely
engaged in the Virginia trade. He came over in 1622, and held
many high positions, and was Governor of the Colony. His wife
was Mary Anne Utie. His son Richard, who married Henrietta
Maria Neale. was drowned, but left a son Richard, who was referred
to as **the richest man in the Colonies." His tomb, with the
Bennett Arms (the Bennetts were of the same family as Lord Arling-
ton), is at Bennett's Point, Maryland. He erected a tomb to his
mother's memory, inscribed as follows :

HENRIETTA MARIA LLOYD.

♦ ♦ Shee who now takes her Rest within this Tomb
Had Rachel's Face and Leah's fruitful Womb,
Abigail's wisdom, Lydia's Faithful Heart
With Martha's care and Mary's Better part."
Who died the 21st day of May
Anno Dom 1697 aged 50 years

Months, 23 days.

To whose memory Richard Bennett dedicates this Tomb.

Captain James Neale left three other children, all bom prior to
his coming to America : James, who married and settled on the
Western Shore of Maryland, Anthony, and Dorothy, who married a
Taney, the ancestors of Chief Justice Taney. The next record of
the Neales is found in Northumberland County, Virginia, where
Christopher Neale was appointed Justice by King William III, 1699,
and was Burgess from 1685 to 17 19. Richard Neale was Buigess,
17 1 3, and also Member of Quorum. Captain Charles Neale was
vestryman, St. Stephen's Parish, 171 2, and Burgess, 1702-17 14.
Mathew Neale, vestryman, 1778.

Samuel Neale married, June 29, 1699, Elizabeth Exeter, in Eliza-

From Richmond City County the Neales rapidly spread into
Loudon, Prince Wilham, Westmoreland, King William, and other
counties. One branch located in the Kanawha Valley and inter-
married with the Steenbergens, Crouches, Jacksons (the parents of
General Stonewall), and others. (Miss Ellen Steenbergen Neale, of
Ben Lomond, West Virginia, is compiling data for this branch of the
family.) In the records of William and Mary College in 1765 a Mr.
Neale, of King William County, is mentioned as being nominated
for collector of rents, but was not elected. Bernard Neale, of King
William, gave a power of attorney to his brother, Richard Neale,
April 2, 1792, stating that he was going to move to North Carolina.
Francis Neale deed to William Newman, March 20, 1795 ; John

NEWMAN.

This family is of Scotch-Irish extraction, and settled in Virginia
in the early part of the eighteenth century, afterwards moving to
North Carolina. There was a Newman, whose first name is lost,
who lived in Lincoln County, North Carolina, about 1775, whose

wife was Rebecca , and who had a son Jonathan and a

daughter Rachel. After the death of her husband Rebecca New-
man moved to York District, South Carolina, with her children.
On the 29th of October, 1795, articles of agreement were entered
into between Mathew Black, of York District, South Carolina, and

Jonathan Newman, of Lincoln County, North Carolina, by which

Jonathan Newman subsequently came into possession of a farm in
the latter place, which he transferred to William McElwee, from
whom it descended to McElwee*s son-in-law, Alexander Galloway,
whose daughter Martha Plaxco now owns and lives thereon.

There lived in the County Tyrone, Ireland, a William McElwee
who had two sons, David and William. The latter (William) emi-
grated to America about 1750, when about thirty-two years of
age, and settled first in Pennsylvania, where he married Janet
Black. He moved thence to Virginia and afterwards to York District,
South Carolina, locating on Clarke's Fork, near the battle-ground
of King's Mountain. His son William was a distinguished soldier
in the Revolutionary War under General Marion, participated
in many engagements, and was a noted man in other respects.
His tombstone records his services as well as his fine traits of
character, and an account of some of his exploits has been
published. He was bom February, 1761, died November, 1854;
married Rachel Newman, above referred to, and left numerous
descendants ; and his sister Elizabeth married Jonathan Newman,
the brother of his wife Rachel Newman.

Jonathan Newman moved to Monroe County about 1807, where he
died in 1844. Of his children, Jonathan, junior, went to Texas, and
in 1849 ** was living on his fine ranch, three miles square, on the Brazos
River. " There were also three daughters and another son, Josiah.

Josiah Newman was bom November 17, 1806, in York District
South Carolina, and died November 6, 1893, in Simpson County,
Kentucky. He married Edith Manion, who was bom January 26,
18 II, and died April 23, 1877. She was the daughter of Ambrose
Manion, bom in Chester District, South Carolina, 1785, and died
1837, whose wife was Pheriba Austin, the daughter of Charles
Austin, who was bom in Virginia and left an orphan ; ran away at
the age of fifteen to Wake County, North Carolina, where he grew
np, married a Miss Bunch, and raised a large family. Edith

Manion's paternal grandparents were Ambrose Manion and

Halselly of South Carolina. Josiah Newman had issue, eleven
children, of whom :

William Houston Newman moved to Louisville in 1856, and has
been since that time, except for a short period during the war, in
the wholesale grocery business, in which he has gained an enviable
reputation for sound judgment and probity, and made an eminent
success. They had three children : Elizabeth, who married John
Atwood Crutcher, of Nicholasville, Kentucky ; Sanford Keith, who
died August 13, 1895, at the age of thirty, and just at the beginning
of a most promising career, beloved and regretted by all who

OLD FAMILIES.

PEMBERTON.

Bishop Meade attributed the American origin of the family to the
Huguenot immigration of 1700. The name was spelled Pembreton
in the early days, which suggests a Breton ancestry.

Richard Pemberton and Elizabeth, his wife, were residents of
King William Parish in Virginia, and the register there shows the
births of their children as follows : Michael, born January 14, 1745 ;
William, bom January 30, 1748 ; and Martha, bom October 17,
1752.

Wilson Coleman Pemberton, who married Wealthean Edwards,
was bom about 1750. Thomas Pemberton was a Captain in the
Virginia State Line, Revolutionary War, and the Confederate Gen-
eral John C. Pemberton was of this family.

The King William Pembertons were noted for their education
and wealth. They owned fine properties and were substantial and
highly r^iarded citizens. The family is now widely scattered
through the South and West.

PEYTON.

Robert Pejrton, of Virginia, was the son of Thomas Pejrton and
Elizabeth, daughter of Sir William Yelverton, of Rougham in
Norfolk. Thomas Peyton died in 1683, leaving four sons, William,
of Dublin ; Charles, of Grimston ; Thomas and Robert, who settled
in Virginia. Thomas Peyton, the older, was descended from a long
line of Pejrtons dating back to the time of William the Conqueror.
The pedigree may be found in Burke's Extinct and Dormant Baron-
etcies, pages 408, 409, and 410.

When Sir John Peyton died in 1772 without issue, the male
descendants of Robert Peyton, of Virginia, were entitled to the
Baronetage, but it appears that they failed to qualify, and he was
succeeded by Sir Yelverton Peyton, of the English line, a half-
brother of Sir John, who died on the i8th of October, 18 15, when
the Baronetage is presumed to have expired.

OLD FAMILIES.

POLLARD.

This family appears to have settled first in King and Queen
County, Virginia, in the early part of the eighteenth century, and
its history includes many distinguished names, among them the old
clerks of King and Queen, King William, and Hanover counties.
Intermarried with the Dandridges, Spotswoods, Edwards', etc., and
their descendants have spread over the land. Robert Pollard was
Clerk of King William County for about forty years, and it was
probably his son, George Butler Pollard, who married Mary Elizabeth
Edwards. The old seat of the family in King William County was
at ** Mount Zoar. "

QUARLES.

This is an old family in Virginia, but its origin appears to be
somewhat obscure. There are frequent references to the name in
the records of the last century, but so far the name of the emigrant
has not developed. Several of the name were in the Revolutionary
War. James Quarles was Paymaster-General, and was most proba-
bly the father of Tunstal Quarles, senior, sometimes known as Colonel
John Tunstal Quarles, who married Susannah Edwards, and who
was bom in King William County prior to 1760. How he received
his title is not known. There was a John Quarles an officer in the
Revolutionary War, and several others of the name fought for
independence. Tunstal Quarles owned large tracts of land in
various parts of Kentucky, but the records show they were all by
purchase or assignment, and not for military service. General
James Quarles and Captain Henry Quarles also received grants for
military service, and Tunstal Quarles came into possession of some
of their land. He also acquired the land granted to Captain
Bernard Lipscomb, by purchase.

The family which settled in the Colony has spread all over the
Southwest, and has produced many eminent representatives.

It is noted as a peculiar coincidence that the two great tariff
reformers — Roger Quarles Mills, of Texas, and William Lyne
Wilson, of West Virginia, the fathers of the ** Mills" and ** Wilson'*
tariff bills — are both connected with the families in this record.

96

OLD FAMILIES.

Among the public men in the Quarles family may be mentioned
one who participated largely in the development of the Common-
wealth of Kentucky, and whose record is preserved here.

Judge Tunstal Quarles was the son of Tunstal Quarles and
Susannah Edwards. He was bom in Virginia about 1770, and
moved with his parents to Kentucky, where they settled in Wood-
ford County about 1790. In 1796 he was a member of the Ken-
tucky House of Representatives from Woodford County. He
afterwards removed to Pulaski, from which county he was sent to
the legislature in 18 11 and 181 2. He represented his district in the
National House of Representatives, 1817-20, was elected Speaker
of the Kentucky House of Representatives in 1828. He was an
Elector in 1829, and voted for Andrew Jackson for President, and
was State Senator in 1840. While in Congress he pronoimced an
eulogy on the death of his friend, David Walker, which attracted
attention, and was followed by Henry Clay and others, who were in
Congress at that time. He armed and equipped at his own expense
and commanded a company in the War of 18 12. While directing
the building of fortifications he was injured by a falling tree, for
which injury he was long afterwards allowed a pension. He was
Circuit Judge by appointment of the Governor, and was a lawyer
of ability. He died November 26, 1856, at Somerset, Kentucky,
where he was buried. His public service extended over a period of
fifty years or more.

As an evidence of his honor and integrity, a deed on record in
Franklin County, Kentucky, December 12, 1820, recites that in his
judgment the property devised to his brother Ambrose by his father's
will was not in fair proportion, and in ** justice to himself and his
own feelings" he conveyed to his brother Ambrose all his land in
Woodford (then Franklin) County * * in order to better his brother's
situation."

to Virginia, the first in 1622, and died on his last voyage.
His son also named John Robins (2).

one of two thousand acres in Gloucester County, where he

his residence acquired its name ** Robins Neck," which it
still retains. He was a member of the House of Burgesses
from Elizabeth City in 1646 and 1649, and a Justice of that
county in 1652. He was married twice, first to Dorothy

, and second to Alice . He probably died about

1655, his will being dated 2 2d of November in that year.
His children were Christopher, William, and Thomas, and
he also left two daughters. His son Thomas Robins (3).

3. Thomas Robins."' Was a chirurgeon (surgeon), lived in York County, and

He married Elizabeth, whose surname was, according to
tradition, Dunbar. He had several children, among them
John, William, Rebecca, and two other daughters, who mar-

TALIAFERRO.

**It has been ascertained by research that the name Taliaferro
originated in a circumstance. It is said that the founder of the
family came over from Normandy with William the Conqueror, and
aided him in his conquest. After the Battle of Hastings, where
William gained a great victory, in his enthusiasm and admiration of
this man's conduct he said to him 'Taliaferro.* The Latin is a
very abbreviated language, a great many words are understood or
supplied, and his meaning was, you have achieved, 'Talia* such
things or so much, 'Ferro' by the iron or the weapons of iron.
When the people were ordered by their sovereign to assume sur-
names, and were casting about for suitable names, many taking
names from their occupation, as Miller, Carter, etc., this motto
was brought out as a name. It does not seem to have come into
use fully until planted on American soil, ^ere it has increased and
spread like a * green bay tree. * '*

ADDENDA.

Peyton. — The manuscript of nearly every family history referred
to herein was submitted to some living member of each particular
branch, and every effort made to secure accuracy. Since the book
was printed a letter received from Reverend Horace E. Hayden, of
Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania, probably the most accomplished gene-
alogist in America, indicates that the descendants of Robert Peyton
in Virginia succeeded to the title of Sir John, who died without issue
in 1772, but the Revolutionary War cancelled all such pretensions.
From the same authority it is learned that Thomas Peyton, the
elder, left five sons, but Thomas was never in Virginia.

Freeman. — George Freeman, bom 1649, patented lands in Hen-
rico County, Virginia. He left, among other children, George, whose
will, probated February 2, 1735, mentions wife Jane, daughters Han-
nah and Alice, and sons Joseph, Holman, and John. The latter,
John Freeman, married Abigail Ballinger, of Goochland County,
and had issue John Freeman, who married Sarah Willis. See Free
man Family.

Hill. — ^There was a William Hill who settled in Middlesex
County and died there February 12, 1669. He was the father of

William and Thomas. The latter married Anne , who died

January 15, 1726, and had issue, William, bom July 20, 1684, and
married September 7, 17 10, Frances, daughter of William and
Dorothy Needles. They had numerous children, among them Will-
iam, Richard, Russell, and Needles, the father of Humphrey. See
Hill Family, From Christ Church Register, Middlesex County.

Neale. — Bernard Neale, who went to North Carolina in 1792,
from King William, afterwards settled near Shelbyville, Kentucky.
He married Elizabeth Christian, a cousin of Roger Sherman, one of
the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Christian County,
Kentucky, was named for her brother, Colonel William Christian.
Their children were Alfred, Bernard, Palmer, Richard, Edward,
Thomas, Mary Ellen, Joan, and Eliza. Alfred married Lucy Roberts
and had issue, Edward, Elizabeth, John H., George, Richard, and
Bernard, who lives in Marshall County, Kentucky, and has been a
member of Kentucky Legislature. See Neale Family.

The Claiborne genealogy is taken largely from O' Hart's Irish
Pedigrees.
