Bio:
JOHN WOODRUFFE, baptized 1604, only son of John Woodruffe (1574-1611), of St. Mary Northgate, having by the remarriage of his mother, Elizabeth, became the stepson of Mr. John Gosmer, of Fordwich, returned with his mother to that parish, where, at the age of 32, he served as churchwarden; but in 1637 his son (John) was baptized in the Parish of Sturry, within half a mile of Fordwich. He married Anne —, who was possibly, as has been suggested, a dtr of the stepfather by a 1st wife; but it is also possible that when, in 1665, their son John spoke of Mr. Gosmer as his “grandfather,” it was not because of his mother’s parentage, but because through his father he was a step-grandson. (There is more; see “The Woodruffs of New Jersey”, by Francis E. Woodruff [New York: The Grafton Press,1909] pp. 13ff.)

Came to America in 1639, with wife Ann, infant son John III, mother Elizabeth, and stepfather John Gosmer, (and other family?) to Lynn, Mass. The Woodruffs of New Jersey.

In 1639, at Lynn, Massachusetts. In 1640, a founder of Southampton, Long Island, New York. He was a man of wealth and refinement.

from the book 'The Collie family of Pittsylvania Co, VA' by Betty Cox Collie

His will dated 12/11/1830 probated in 8/1834 in Smith Co, TN name his 2nd wife Polly and 4 living children and 3 deceased children

They are listed in the book -- and in the excerpt below
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Collie Family p. 658

Francis Cornwell (d. 1834), Brother of Ann (Cornwell) Collie

Francis Cornwell, like his sister, Ann (Cornwell) Collie, was named as a child in the
will of Charles Cornwell (d. 1781). Francis was born about the 1740s, probably in Prince
William County, VA, and died prior to August 1834 in Smith County, TN, when his will,
dated December 11, 1830, was presented there for probate. His approximate birth year is
estimated from his reported age (in his 80s) recorded in the 1830 federal census of Smith
County, TN. In his will he named his second wife, "Polly,'"' plus four living children and
three deceased children. They are listed below, supplemented by brief records on their children
based on research by the authors of this book and references cited:

1. Thompson Cornwell (1788-1850s)10 married Jane Yeaman (1794-1850s),
daughter of John Yeaman and Mary (Williams) Yeaman, on (bond dated) March 23,
1812, in Pittsylvania County, VA, and had ten children: (1) Elijah W. Cornwell, husband
of Purlina (...); (2) Enoch Cornwell; (3) Barnett Cornwell, husband of (1st) Mahala
Sutton, (2TU|) Martha Sutton; (4) Josiah Cornwell; (5) Luranie Cornwell, wife of Silas
Russell; (6) Fushie Cornwell, husband of Sally M. Garret; (7) Matilda Cornwell; (8) Jane
Cornwell, wife of Silas Austin; (9) Susan Cornwell; and (10) Thompson Cornwell, Jr.

2. SUas C. Cornwell (1792-1865) married Jane Shields on (bond dated) February
15,1813, in Pittsylvania County, VA, and had at least two children: (1) Pleasant F.
Cornwell, husband of Elizabeth (...); and (2) Luvenia Cornwell (1823-1825).

3. Anna Cornwell married Augustine S. Thorn and had at least one child: Kitty
C. Thorn, (lsl) wife of a Mr. Bennett and (2nd) wife of Rawleigh C. Stott.

4. Fouche "Fooshe" C. Cornwell (deed pre-1830) married "Betse" Cheatham
on (bond dated) October 5,1807, in Pittsylvania County, VA, and had eight children:"
(1) Drury Cornwell, husband of Jane (...); (2) Louisa Cornwell; (3) Alfred Cornwell,
husband of America (...); (4) Larkin Cornwell, husband of Ann E. (...); (5) Henry
Cornwell; (6) Harriett Cornwell; (7) a daughter who married Benjamin Payne; and (8)
a daughter who married Joseph Law.

5. John Cornwell (dee'd pre-1830) married Mary Garland and had at least five
children: (1) William Garland Cornwell (1792-1877), husband of (1st) Elizabeth
Yeaman,12 (2nd) Letitia Dodd, (3rd) Judy Reese; (2) Artemisa Griffith Cornwell; (3) Ann
Cordelia Cornwell; (4) John Burrell Cornwell; and (5) Louisa Valentina Cornwell.

6. Dolly Cornwell (dee'd pre-1830) married a Mr. Flippen and supposedly had
children.

Footnotes:
9 "Polly" was the nickname for Mary Dean, who was the mother of Willis Cornwell. According to
Bible records from descendants, she was born October 1, 1793, and died August 30, 1865. The
name of Francis Cornwell's previous wife also was Mary, as indicated in an 1805 Pittsylvania County,
VA, deed. Her maiden surname is unknown. She may be the mother of the other nine children of
Francis Cornwell, though we cannot prove this.
10 More information on Thompson Cornwell and his family is found in: The Yeaman Family of
Pittsylvania County, Virginia: Their Origin, Relatives, & Descendants, by Robert E. King, privately
printed, Anchorage, AK, 1995, pp. 52-63.
11 The 1830 federal census of Smith Co., TN, listed her as "Elizabeth," with some researchers identifying
her as a daughter of Abia Cheatham, who settled in Smith Co., TN. Fouche's eight children
were listed in Smith County, TN, Court Minutes Vol. 13, p. 10, dated August 30,1830.
12 Their descendants are traced in King (1995:64-69). She was a sister to Jane Yeaman (above).

659 Appendix: Cornwell Family Records

7. Willis Cornwell, (b. March 3,1827, d. April 5, 1906, per Bible records) married
(lsl) Mary E. McCarver in 1846, and (2,ul) Mary J. Condra in 1872 and had a
total of sixteen children: (1) infant not named; (2) Login Franklin Cornwell; (3) Francis
Alexander Cornwell; (4) Willis Henderson Cornwell; (5) William Howard Cornwell,
husband of Louise Francis; (6) Mary Matilda Cornwell; (7) Isolinas Cornwell; (8) Ida

(14) Nutin McNab Cornwell; (15) Hermosa Grace Cornwell; and (16) Andrew Benton
Cornwell (1879-1950).13

In addition, research on the family of Francis Cornwell (d. 1834) has revealed three
other children:
8. Elizabeth Cornwell (1781-1860) married David Cole (1780-1857), son of
Tunus Cole, on (bond dated) December 2,1805, Pittsylvania Co., VA, and had six children:
(1) EU Cole (1806-1882), husband of Sarah Ann Richardson;14 (2) Henry Cole,
husband of Frances (...); (3) Leah Cole (never married); (4) Mahala Cole; (5) Rebecca
Cole; and (6) William D. Cole (b. Nov 18, 1824, d. Jul 1, 1907) married on Aug 26,
1860, Mary H. Bennett (b. Dec 18,1829, d. Nov 16,1901) and had six children.

9. Milly Cornwell (1784-1877) married a supposed-cousin, Charles Cornwell,
son of "Collet Cornwell," and had seven children: (1) Mary F. Cornwell, wife of James
Sutton; (2) Artemisia Cornwell, wife of Elam Russell; (3) Cordelia "Delia" Cornwell,
wife of King Robinson; (4) Elizabeth "Betsy" Cornwell, wife of Madison Smith; (5)
Coleman Cornwell, husband of a Miss Fagg; (6) Francis Cornwell, husband of (1st) a
Miss Potter and (2nd) Elizabeth Hanes; and (7) Jesse Cornwell.

10. Samuel C. Cornwell (dee'd pre-May 1837 in Smith Co., TN)
As early as February 15, 1802, Francis Cornwell (d. 1834) and family moved to
Pittsylvania County, VA, where they were listed in a deed (Pittsylvania Co., VA, Deed Book
12, p. 507). The last deed recorded there for him was dated November 18,1817, (Pittsylvania
Co., VA, Deed Book 21, p. 208). Following that, Francis migrated to Smith County, TN, where
several of his children already had settled. In 1997, he has many descendants living in
Pittsylvania County, VA, Smith County, TN, and elsewhere.

Footnotes:
13 Andrew's grandson, Carl Goad of Homer, IL, supplied much of the information summarized in
this section on the Francis Cornwell (d. 1834) family. He corresponded in the 1970s and early 1980s
with Robert E. King, a co-author of this history.
14 Sarah Ann Richardson (1832-1910) was a cousin through the Collie family, being a daughter of
Lucy (Collie) Richardson (1802-1889), who was a granddaughter of James Collie (b. 1718), the immigrant,
and Ann (Cornwell) Collie.

Humphrey de Bohun

Birth: c. 1276, England
Death: Mar. 16, 1322, England

4th Earl of Hereford. Born the son of Humphrey de Bohun, 3rd Earl of Hereford and Maud de Fiennes at Pleshy Castle in Essex. In November 1302 he married King Edward I's daughter, Elizabeth Plantagenet, with whom he had at least eleven children. He held the office of Lord High Constable. He took part in the king's Scottish campaigns in the early 1300s. After the flight of Robert Bruce, de Bohun received many of Bruce's confiscated properties. At the battle of Bannockburn in 1314, he charged the Bruce, and his nephew Henry de Bohun was killed, but he was taken and held for ransom. He was eventually exchanged for Bruce's wife and daughter. He numbered among the peers who opposed Edward II's excesses and banished the royal favorite, Piers Gaveston. In 1316 he successfully led the suppression of the revolt of Llywelyn Bren. By 1322, however, he fell in with Lancaster's rebellion against Edward II, and as the rebels approached Boroughbridge in Yorkshire, de Bohun led an attempt to storm the bridge held by royal pike men. The Earl, however, was run through by pike men secreted beneath the bridge and died in the field, his gruesome death breaking the advance, and spelling failure for the rebels. (bio by: Iola)

Sir Richard de Burgh

Birth: 1259, Northern Ireland
Death: Jul. 29, 1326
Cashel
County Donegal, Ireland

Knight, Earl of Ulster. Nicknamed the Red Earl and the general of all the Irish forces in Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Gascoigne.

Son of Sir Walter de Burgh and Aveline FitzJohn, grandson of Sir John FitzGeoffrey and Isabel de Bigod, Sir Richard de Burgh and Margaret de Lacy.

Richard married Margaret, the possible daughter of Arnoul II, Count of Guines and Alice de Coucy. They were married before 27 Feb 1281 and had fours sons and six daughters:
* Walter de Burgh
* John de Burgh, married Elizbeth de Clare
* Thomas de Burgh
* Sir Edmund de Burgh
* Eleanor, wife of Thomas de Multon, Lord Multon of Egremont
* Elizabeth, wife of Robert de Brus, King of Scotland
* Maud, wife of Gilbert de Clare
Aveline, wife of John Bermingham, Earl of Louth
* Katherine, wife of Maurice FitzThomas
* Joan, wife of Thomas FitzGerald, Earl of Kildare & Sir John Darcy, Baron de Knayth

Richard was the most powerful of the Burghs, succeeding his father in 1280, and constantly tangling with the Irish, particularly in Connaught, his own Lord. Queen Eleanor granted him her manor of Roteneche in Ireland in 1283. Richard invaded Connaught in 1286, plundering the monasteries and churches, taking hostages and then attacked King of Connaught, Magnus O'Connor at the castle of Milic.

Despite his daughter married the King of Scotland, Richard joined King Edward's fight against the Scots. A feud with Sir John FitzThomas, who held Richard hostage in his own castle Dec 1294 to Mar 1295 led to Sir John's forfeit of 120 librates (land having the annual value of one pound.) He was appointed Lieutenant of Ireland in 1308, but the position was immediately canceled and give to Peter de Gaveston, the favorite of Edward II. Invasions into Ireland by Edward Bruce and Felim Conhuir lost Richard his authority until he recovered Ulster after the defeat at Faughart and ultimately, Conhuir's death.

Sir Richard built churches, granted lands to religious groups, was a benefactor of the Cistercian house of St Mary at Dunbrody and built three castles; Ballimore, Greencastle and Sligo, and founded the Carmelite monastery at Loughrea, Connaught, Ireland. Richard retired to the Athassel Priory, Cashel, Donegal, Ireland, where he died.

Martin Wood 2012-03-31 01:29:20 [email protected]
I have seen your RootsWeb pages under 'Mary Eileen Moore' and think you should know the following:

Various otherwise reputable genealogy sites contain serious errors in regard to this family, some even giving a high star rating for accuracy.
The documented facts are as follows:
Mary More, the daughter of Thomas More II (1531-1606) and Mary Scrope (1534-1607) was born on 25 December 1553. However, she was NOT born at Barnborough (the correct spelling), Yorkshire, but at Hambleden, Buckinghamshire. The event is recorded in the family’s ‘Book of Hours’. I have a copy of the entry.
Mary did not have 'Eileen' anywhere in her name.

Mary married Edward More (of an unrelated family) born at Lower Haddon in the Parish of Bampton, Oxfordshire, where his family farmed their estate.
The name 'Robert' does not appear anywhere in Edward's records.
Many people write Edward’s second name ‘Moore’, but I have a copy of a letter from one of their daughters which shows that they wrote their own name ‘More’ (i.e. with one ‘o’).

Edward’s birthdate is usually given as c.1560, but this is pure guesswork. His date of birth/baptism are not recorded. The family had remained Catholic and these events were not recorded in Church of England Parish Registers.

Edward and Mary married, most probably in 1585-6 as, for a few years before that, Edward was in various London prisons as a convicted Recusant (i.e. someone who had refused to conform to the Church of England).

Family records, Jesuit Records, Convent Records (three of the daughters became Nuns at Convents in Catholic Europe) and Court Records for Recusancy show that Edward and Mary spent all their married life on the small estate owned by Mary’s father at Low Leyton, Essex. They had no connection with Shropshire.
Low Leyton is where their seven children were born - five daughters and two sons.
The two sons were Henry and Thomas, both of who were sent into Catholic Europe to be educated. They both became Jesuit Priests.
Edward died at Low Leyton in 1605 when Mary was granted permission by the Court to administer his almost non-existent estate. Mary later went to live with one of her married daughters at Stondon Massey, Essex where she died in 1630.

It follows from the above that Edward and Mary DID NOT have a son John Moore - let alone a Robert John Moore. Nor did they have a daughter Mary Jane Moore.

According to which site you visit, John Moore is said to have been born in Bampton, Oxford, Reading, Shropshire (a County, not a town or village), Swaffham in Norfolk, and even in Ireland – all (apart from the Parish of Bampton) being guesses/invention.

The John Moore who emigrated to Virginia in the ship Bona Nova in 1620, followed two years later by his wife Elizabeth (said to have been a ‘Merritt’ ) in the Abigail, settled in Elizabeth City County, Virginia.
The English ancestry of this John Moore is unknown.

The Elizabeth City line gave rise to an Augustine Moore who married Mary Woolley. There is, however, no known connection between this line and, as some record, the line of Colonel Augustine Moore of King William’s County.

Colonel Augustine Moore is said to have been born in England in 1585. He died in Virginia in 1643.He married, as his second wife, the widow Elizabeth Seaton who was, by birth a Todd. They had five children.
The English ancestry of Col. Augustine Moore is also unknown.

You say you welcome additions/corrections, so I hope this will be of interest to you.
Best wishes,
MW

Birth year also seen as 1742 and 1748. See the marriage record that is associated with this entry.

The following is from The Heritage of Old Buncombe County, Doris Cline Ward, Editor (1981) at 190-191 (Article #307, "Major William and Margaret McConnell Davidson" by Mrs. Dorothy Hyde and Mr. William E. Bryson):

Major William Davidson was born October 10, 1736 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania [most likely in Ireland], the son of John and Mary Morrison Davidson and twin brother to Samuel. He married Margaret McConnell, daughter of John Sr. and Mary Winsley McConnell, who were among the first settlers of Rowan County, and during the Revolutionary War the family was living in Rowan County (now McDowell) at a place called the Glades, on the Catawba River. William was active in the fight for independence -- a member of the Committee on Safety and Independence, and a Lieutenant in Captain Houston's Company. He was in the military campaigns of 1780-81 when Cornwallis invaded North Carolina and fought at King's Mountain, during which time he rose to the rank of Major.

In 1785, several months after the death of his brother Samuel, William and his family crossed the mountains into the Swannanoa Valley and settled on a large, fertile farm near the mouth of Bee Tree River. On August 7, 1787, the first land grant in Buncombe County was issued to William and James Davidson for 600 acres "on both sides of the Savannah" (Swannanoa). William and Margaret were charter members of Piney Grove Presbyterian Church (now Swannanoa). At his death, Major Davidson was buried on his plantation, but later his body was moved to the Swannanoa Presbyterian Church Cemetery, and in July 1902 the D.A.R. erected a monument to his memory.

Their children were: Mary (1790-1842) m. Daniel Smith; John, b. 1764; Hugh and George (b. 1768); Jean (1772-1804) m. Thomas Davidson; Sallie (1774-1838) m. Joshua Williams; Ruth b. 1777 m. General Samuel Williams; William Mitchell (1780-1840) m. Elizabeth Vance; and Samuel Winslow Davidson. The Ruth Davidson Chapter DAR, Asheville, was named in honor of Ruth, above.

Adèle de Blois-Champagne

Birth: 1140
Death: Jun. 4, 1206

Royalty. She was the youngest daughter of Thibaut IV de Blois, a brother of King Stephen, and Mathilde of Carinthia. She married Louis VII on November 13th, 1160 in Paris, five weeks after his second wife Constance de Castille had died. They both liked each other and she had some influence on him. Louis married his daughters, Marie and Alix, from his first marriage to her brothers, Henri and Thibaut. In 1165 she gave birth to the longed for successor, Philippe-Auguste. Two girls, Alix and Agnes, were born in 1170 and 1171. Following tradition her son was crowned king when he was fourteen, at this time Louis was very ill. Adèle hoped to act as a regent for him if Louis died suddenly, but Philippe surprised everyone and claimed the power for himself and choose a wife without his parents consent. Her husband died in 1180 and Philippe became king. During his absence on the crusade she reigned the kingdom following strict rules set by him. After his return to France she quietly retired. Following her last wish she was buried in Pontigny instead of St. Denis.

Humphrey III de Bohun

Birth: 1144
Gloucestershire, England
Death: Dec., 1181
Hertford
Hertfordshire, England

Humphrey III de Bohun was an Anglo-Norman nobleman and general who served Henry II as Constable. He was the son of Humphrey II de Bohun and Margaret of Gloucester, the eldest daughter of the constable Miles of Gloucester. He had succeeded to his fathers fiefs, centred on Trowbridge, by September 29, 1165, when he owed three hundred marks as relief. From 1166 he held his mother's inheritance, both her Bohun lands in Wiltshire and her inheritance from her late father and brothers.
As his constable, Humphrey sided with the king during the Revolt of 1173–1174. Humphrey joined Henry the Young King in leading an army against Philip of Alsace, the Count of Flanders, in support of Philip II of France, in late 1181, on which campaign Humphrey died. He was buried at Llanthony Secunda.
Sometime between February 1171 and Easter 1175 Humphrey married Margaret of Huntingdon, a daughter of Henry, Earl of Northumbria, and widow since 1171 of Conan IV, Duke of Brittany. Through this marriage he became a brother in law of his enemy, William of Scotland. With Margaret he had a daughter, Matilda, and a son, Henry de Bohun, who in 1187 was still a minor in the custody of Humphrey's mother in England. It has been suggested that Humphrey's widow was the Margaret who married Pedro Manrique de Lara, a Spanish nobleman, but there are discrepancies in this theory.

William Coxe

Birth: 1598 Broxbourne, Broxbourne Borough, Hertfordshire, England
Death: 1656 (aged 57–58) Henrico County, Virginia, USA
Burial: Body lost or destroyed

Memorial #: 117594487
Bio:
Perhaps we will never fully appreciate or understand the fear, excitement, and wonder that young William Coxe must have felt as he saw for the first time the wild coast of North America. He had survived a spring crossing of the Atlantic to land in the New World, and the unexplored forests surrounding the tiny colony of Virginia stretched inland beyond his sight. He stepped ashore on the only English outpost of an unknown continent where he would spend the rest of his life carving a place in a new society that would reward his abilities and initiative, if he survived. At the time, he was simply an indentured child servant with little control over his life and none of the established society he must have know in England.

When he and the rest of the relief convoy arrived at Jamestown that June day in 1610, the colony's survivors had already abandoned the place and boarded ship to leave it, perhaps forever. The site of the first "successful" English settlement in North America, was only in its third year of life, and survival was very uncertain. Eventually thousands of other Virginia colonists would succumb to massacre, disease, and homesickness that led to despair, but William survived and thrived, finished his indenture, acquired land, became a planter, married, and raised a family. Four hundred years later he is looked upon as the progenitor of more than a dozen generations of descendants that must number in the thousands.

William Coxe was born in 1598 in southeast England at Broxburn, Hertfordshire. This was described by John Marius Wilson in 1872 as "a village, a township, and a parish in the Ware district on the the New River" and to the south was London. Later as a colonist in Virginia William married Elizabeth Hutchins and raised a family of at least four children before he died by 14 Dec. 1656.

Children of William and Elizabeth (Thomas and John are affirmed by documents, but the two daughters are less secure):- Thomas Cox (the oldest son, b. in Henrico Co., Va.; d. New Kent Co., Va.; married Elizabeth).- John Cox (b. ca. 1640 in Henrico Co., Va.; d. before 1 Feb. 1696/97 in Henrico Co., Va. - see link below);- Mary Cox (married John Burton);- Elizabeth Cox (married Robert Porter);

Young William's arrival and possible family connections are reported in "Adventurers of Purse and Person" (pgs. 211-216) which based some of its information on the "muster" list from Jamestown taken in 1625:"

William Coxe came to Virginia at the age of 12 in the Godspeede, which arrived 10 June, 1610 with the party of Thomas West, Third Lord De La Warr. The fact that Lord De La Warr's brother, Robert West, married Elizabeth Coxe, daughter of Sir Henry Coxe of Broxburn, Hertfordshire, suggests that William Coxe may have been of that family. When the muster was taken in Feb. 1624/25, he was listed with Thomas Bouldinge at Elizabeth City. He was granted a lease for ten years, 20 Sept. 1628, for 100 acres "within the precincts of Elizabeth City," bounded on the south by the maine (James) river, on the east by Dictoris Christmas, planter, and Christopher Calthropp, Gent."

There has been some question of whether William arrived on the Godspeed in 1610. Other than William's record, there is no other source unearthed that records this voyage. The Godspeed was one of the three ships that made the Atlantic crossing in 1606-7 to found the colony, and author Catherine C. Swormstedt notes there is record of it returning to England in June 1607 along with the smaller ship Susan Constant under the command Christopher Newport who gave a report to the company about the colony's progress. The Susan Constant later went into service as a merchantman along the English coast, but no other record of the Godspeed has been found ("Four Lives of the Godspeed," "Elks Magazine" March 2009). However, shipping records of the time are very spotty, and the complete history of most ships is not know from this period. So another voyage to Jamestown with the relief squadron in 1610 is not contradicted by any source, and it is quite possible the ship was used again by the company in 1610.

In those early decades on the coast, the danger from attack by local tribes was very real. William's arrival in 1610 came right at the end of the "starving time" siege of Jamestown which stretched through the winter and spring of 1609-10. The population was shut up in the fort with dwindling food, and many died. "Jamestown Rediscovery" reports there were only 60 of the original 214 settlers at Jamestown who survived, and some 30 others were in the countryside around it. When June began with no help on the horizon, the survivors decided to bury the cannon and armor and abandon the town. They boarded the ships they had and began sailing down the James River heading back to England when news reached them that help was on the way. It was only the timely arrival of the new governor, Lord De La Ware, and his supply ships (including the Godspeede with William aboard) that restored the colonists to the fort and the colony was resurrected. "Although the suffering did not totally end at Jamestown for decades, some years of peace and prosperity followed the wedding of Pocahontas, the favored daughter of the Algonquian chief Powhatan, to tobacco entrepreneur John Rolfe."

The conflict between the English and the tribes was much the fault of the colonial authorities who had sent troops into the countryside to demand food from the indiginous population. The rough treatment had led to the tribal assault on the town some dozen tears later.

An uneasy period followed after the siege, but the relative calm was punctuated with spasms of violence and reprisal. In fact, on a trading expedition to the Potomac River in 1613, Captain Samuel Argall kidnapped Pocahontas and brought her to Jamestown, hoping her father, Chief Powhatan, would return stolen English settlers, tools and weapons. When her father did not fully comply, Pocahontas was sent to the nearby Henrico settlement under the care of the Reverend Alexander Whitaker.

While she was held captive she converted to Christianity and took the name Rebecca. She chose to remain with the English after she was freed, and thus met Rolfe who she married and bore a son, Thomas Rolfe. William would have been on hand to hear about their wedding in April 1614, and perhaps he attended the festivities held for the couple. But even this famed woman suffered like so many others of a life cut short by sudden illness, and she died at the age of 22 in 1617.

The "Great Migration" period from 1618 to 1623 saw the population of Jamestown rise from 400 to several thousand. One wonders if these were the desperate poor or foolhardy adventurers who took such risks with their lives. Perhaps they had no choice or were duped into making the voyage without know the tru situation in the colony. It is believed more than 4,000 colonists, nearly all men, arrived in this period, but most died of the ubiquitous dangers of disease, starvation, and attack (Crandell Shiftlett, "Virtual Jamestown").

Preceded by a period of relative calm, the secuirty of the colony was shattered the morning 22 March 1622 when the Powhatan Confederacy launched a coordinated attack on various settlements around Jamestown (which was saved by an Indian youth who warned the town in time to close their gates). The Algonquins had arrived in the streets of several settlements around Jamestown, and they carried the usual goods for trade, but at a given signal they struck with whatever weapons were at hand. Some 347 colonial men, women, and children are recorded as killed in the attack, a number equal to about a quarter of the population of Jamestown itself. The assault against the English was not enough to dislodge the colony, and of course, reprisals from the settlers soon followed. A low level of warfare persisted for the next decade.

By December 1622 the population was in dire need of food due to the conflicts that had disrupted farming. However, the Abigail arrived with no food but rather an infectious load of passengers; plague and starvation eventually reduced the colony to 500 people. The colonists held out hope for the arrival of the Seaflower which could have brought them relief, but the vessel blew up in an accident.

Perhaps it was the desperate situation that led to a horrific act by the colonists to eliminate their enemies on March 18, 1623. This was the mass poisoning of some 200 Algonquins who were given tainted liquor at a toast during a mass meeting in celebration of peace negotiations by Captain William Tucker. The poison in their drink was supplied by Dr. John Potts, and the result was nearly instant death, followed by the slaughter of another 50 who had not imbibed.

Prospects improved in 1624 when the Virginia Company went bankrupt and lost its charter for the colony which became a royal colony with a governor and council appointed by the King to oversea development. Since the governor was on site, shipments of supplies and support would become much more regular. From 1625 onward something like 1,000 indentured servants arrived each year through 1640. Some were orphans, others were criminals, and still others were the poor, but all shared bleak prospects in the rigid society of England. In contrast, the offer of land and advancement in the colonies as well training in a trade made the constraints of becoming an indentured servant an acceptable option.

The 1625 "muster" described above which included William Coxe was not just a census but also meant to count the weapons each household possessed since the local situation could become violent at any moment. Thus it was that Thomas Bouldinge, another immigrant of 1610 to whom William had been indentured at some point, gave a list of the arms which included 6 pounds of gunpowder, 200 pounds of lead, 3 firearms listed as "pieces," a suit of mail, and three swords. The food count listed 600 dry fish which could have been consumed if there were another siege. There was also a "pallizado" which was the term for a palisade, a wall around part of the property (likely the farmhouse and barn) as a defensive measure during an attack.

William's period of servitude had ended by the date of the muster, but he still lived in the household of his former master Thomas Bouldinge for whom he must have been employed. Other males in the household were William Bouldinge, a son "borne in Virginia," and Richard Dale, aged 20, and transported aboard the Jacob in 1624. He too must have been indentured.

To establish an English colony in the New World after two failed attempts in the reign of Elizabeth, King James authorized the charter of the London Company to establish a colony that would bring goods and prestige to England in competition with the Spanish, French, and Dutch. To encourage colonists, the company offered free passage and 50 acres of land (called a headright). For each indentured servant whose cost of transport was covered, the master would be given 50 acres, and after the years of indenture were completed, the freed servant was to be given a new suit of clothes and tools from the former master, and 50 acres from the colony government. Thus the colony's population was expanded, and those who could bring over others could build their estates.

An example of this can be seen in a neighbor of William, Matthew Edlow who brought over 24 servants and gained 1,200 acres for the effort. These people were needed to keep the colony populated since by 1624, only 3,400 of the 6,000 early settlers had survived. With such uncertainty in their lives, the colonists had demanded more control of the colony in 1619 and established an elected legislature, the House of Burgesses. That same year African workers were first brought in to provided manpower as indentured servants, and it was not until 1654 that slavery was codified in a lawsuit (John Casor was ruled a slave rather than an indentured servant and returned to his master, Anthony Johnson, a free black man who had been one of the original 20 black indentured servants and had finished his indenture by 1623).

It was in the period after the crown assumed control that William's prospects improved enough for him to acquire land as a free man. His transactions in the colony's Patent Books provide some of the few details we know of his later life. The details can be found in "Cavaliers and Pioneers, Volume 1, 1623-1666," complied by Nell Marion Nugent.

William's land was originally located in the Elizabeth City area along the James River. In 1634 it became Elizabeth River Shire, one of the eight shires created in the Virginia Colony by order of the King. In 1636, the area was further subdivided, and only the portion north of the harbor of Hampton Roads became known as Elizabeth City Shire. It was renamed Elizabeth City County a short time later. However, it appears that the boundary change placed William's property in Henrico County where he is later listed. These records show, among other things, that William brought over three men to the colony which in turn granted him 150 acres.

From Patent Book 1, Part 1:

"William Cox, of Eliz. Citty, Planter, 100 acres within said precincts, abutting east on land of Dictoris Christmas, Planter, extending towards ground now graunted to Christopher Calthropp, Gent., south on the maine rivr, &c. Lease as above. 20 Sept, 1628 page 89" (page 12).

"William Cox, 150 acres, Henrico Co., 29 Nov. 1636, page 503. Aboute 2 1/2 miles above Harroe Attocks, west by north upon the maine river (James River), westerly upon the great swamp, easterly into the woods and southerly towards Harrow Attocks. Due for transportation of 3 person: Thomas Braxston, Richard Bird, Richard Hewes. Same patent listed Patent Book, Part 2, Page 74, but persons transported were not named" (page 5). This same transaction is repeated in Patent Book 1, Part 2 but without the named of the three men.

"Alice Edloe, 100 acres, Henrico Co., 14 July 1637, page 441. Lying 2 1/2 miles above Harroe Attocks towards the falls on the same side of the River in a Swamp betwixt land belonging to William Coxe & 350 acres graunted to said Alice, bounded west by south upon the maine river, east by north into the maine woods through said Swamp, beginning 12 feet on that side of a Creek towards land of said Coxe, running up the river & abutting her own land. Transportation of 2 persons: John Williams, William Attaway" (page 61).

From Patent Book 1, part 2:

"Robert Cradock (Craddock), 300 acres, Henrico Co., 29 May, 1638, page 537. Northerly on a little creek towards Lilley Valley upon land of William Cox & Isaac Hutchins & south upon land of John Davis. Transportation of 6 persons (not named)" (page 84).

"Thomas Ransha, 300 acres, Warwick Co., Aug. 25, 1642, page 813. Being a neck of land called Harwoods Neck, butting upon the Deepe Creek, near land of William Coxe, to Stokes Creek, dividing this from land of Christopher Boyce. 150 acres due by purchase of patent from John Garrett & the other for transportation of 3 persons: Richard Puse, Georg Sutton, Michaell Slowly" (page 133).

"Cronelius de Hull, Oct. 31, 1642, page 8442. 501 acres known as Lilley Valley, beginning next to Mrs. Edlows Swamp, near his own land & southeast upon John Davis, southwest to the river, ending neare a place called the Seaven - , 250 acres of this land was granted to William Cox in 1637. Transportation of 10 persons: Thomas Blackston, Richard Bird, Richard Hewes, James Dupen, Mary Howtree, Jon. Dodd, Robert Hayes, Samll. Waterhowse, Waltr. Jones, Wm. Thomas" (page 148).

The date of Wiliam's death is not recorded, but the land record that below shows that he had died by Dec. 1656 since it refers to his "orphan" children. As his oldest son was an adult by this time, the term seems to mean "heirs." Isack Hutchings, whom researchers believe was William's brother-in-law, is also involved in the record suggesting how they met or perhaps an indication that the families stayed close after the marriage and bought land in the same area for mutual support and shared labor.

"Peeter Lee, 126 acres, Henrico Co., known by the name of Worricke, 14 Dec. 1656, page 44 (67). Beginning at a small run & a place called London Bridge which divides it from land belonging to the Orphans of William Cox, southeast on the main river & northeast on Isack Hutchings. Transportation of 3 persons (not named)" (page 335).

The last record for William actually occurs in Aug. 1, 1668 when his oldest son Thomas Cox sold some land he inherited at Falling Creek to John Knowles. In fact, the sale refers back to when the property was purchased in a partnership of William with his brother-in-law Isack on Sept. 1, 1642 from Matthew Gough.

Concerning Isaac Hutchins, researcher Janet Ariciu reports that "Isaac Hutchins also obtained his 378-acre grant of land in 'Worricks' on the 14th of December 1656. It was lying next to land of Peter Lee, southeast on the main river and northeast to a place called 'Porringers Spring.' Isaac was probably the son of Robert Hutchins, the mariner, and brother to Elizabeth Coxe, wife of William Coxe. Isaac had other lands on the south side of the river near 'Worricks,' for on the 1st of September 1642, he bought 250 acres in partnership with William Coxe at the mouth of Falling Creek.

"Isaac Hutchins probably came to Virginia about 1633 prior to the 16th of June 1637 when Captain Thomas Osborne was given credit for Isaac's headrights. Isaac married Cicely "Sisly" and had one child, a son Robert, who was mentioned in Isaac's will of February 23, 1656. In April 1714 the Henrico court concluded that Robert, son of Isaac, died under age and without issue, and thus the lands of Isaac reverted to his wife Cicely. She had married Henry Sherman after the death of Isaac. Her granddaughter, Mary Trent, married Richard Coxe, the grandson of William Coxe. Mary Trent and Richard Cox had a daughter Elizabeth Cox, born February 25, 1713, who about 1731 married Strangeman Hutchins, son of Nicholas Hutchins and Mary Watkins of Henrico County.

"Thus seems to end what we know of the story of William Coxe. However, there are some other instances of the name Wiiliam Cox appearing in Jamestown records as having been brought over in the 1630s and thus earning 50 acres for the man who paid for his passage. Rather than identifying the man as a different person, some researchers suggest that William returned to England and then allowed one of his neighbors to bring him back so it earned the man more land. This is possible but seems unlikely to risk one's life on the Atlantic for a neighbor's gain (unless there money that exchanged hands). It could have been that William returned to England to find a wife since European females were scarce in the colony, and thus he could have worked a deal with one of his neighbors. In fact, colonial administrators had shipped over 90 women in 1619 to become wives of colonists. The men had to pay for their passage which was set at "one hundredth and fiftie [pounds] of the best leafe Tobacco." Whatever the case, those records of this William appear below, and further research might reveal the details of who this William was.

Patent Book 1, Part 1:

"Mathew Edloe (Edlowe), son & heir to Matthew Edloe, late of Virginia, decs., 1,200 acres upon the north side of James River over against the Upper Chippokes Creek, southwest upon the maine river & northeast into the woods towards Danceing point, 12 July 1637, page 435.

From Kentucky Family Records, Volume 2, Mrs. Edgar L. Cox (editor), page 61 ("Early Virginia Ancestors of our Cox Family and Their Colonial Cousins," compiled by Mrs. David O. Reichlein, submitted by Mrs. Opal Cox Avant):

"The first Cox in our family appears to have been William Cox, Planter, who came to Virginia before 1628, and could have been the same William Cox, age 26, who came over in the Godspeed. A land grant of 150 to William Cox, Oct. 29, 1637 in Henrico County, about 2 miles above Harrow Attocks, was granted for transportation of three persons, one of which was Richard Byrd. William Cox appears to have purchased additional land adjoining this patent and owned land on both sides of the James River: Coxendale on one side, and Dutch Gap on the other side. William Cox acquired by lease 100 acres of land in Elizabeth City on Sept. 20, 1624. In 1637, William Cox, Elizabeth & ux, were among headright to Matthew Edloe on their return from England on July 12, 1637. William Cox died before 1656, for on Dec. 14, 1656, Peter Lee was granted 126 acres of land in Henrico County which adjoined "the land belonging to the orphans of William Cox." Orphans of William appear to have been Thomas Cox and John Cox [I]."

From Adventurers of Purse and Person, pages 211-216: William Coxe came to Virginia at the age of 12 in the Godspeed, which arrived 10 June 1610 with the party of Thomas West, Third Lord De La Warr. The fact that Lord De La Warr's brother, Robert West, married Elizabeth Coxe, daughter of Sir Henry Coxe of Broxburn, Hertfordshire, suggests that William Coxe may have been of that family. When the muster was taken, Feb. 1624/25, he was listed with Thomas Bouldinge at Elizabeth City. He was granted a lease for ten years, 20 Sept. 1628, for 100 acres "within the precincts of Elizabeth City," bounded on the south by the maine [James] river, on the east by Dictoris Christmas, planter, and Christopher Calthropp, Gent. On 29 Nov. 1636, William Coxe received a patent in a different locality, 150 acres in Henrico County about two and one-half miles above Harroe Attocks [Arrowhattocks]. Another 150 acres in the same location was granted to him 29 Dec. 1637. This was in the vicinity of Falling Creek, and his neighbors were Mrs. Alice Edloe, her daughter Hannah Boyse and her son Mathew Edloe, and Robert Craddock. There must have been at least one return trip to England, for Mathew Edloe in a patent, 12 July 1637, claimed William Coxe and Elizabeth his wife as two of his headrights. He may have served as Burgess from Henrico County, 1646. Coxe was dead by 14 Dec. 1656 when Peter Lee patented 126 acres in Henrico County adjoining the land "belonging to the orphans of William Coxe." Issue: Thomas, inherited as "son and heir" a right in 250 acres sold, 1 Sept. 1642, by Mathew Gough to William Cox and Isaac Hutchins, and assigned his interest to John Knowles, 1 Aug. 1668; and John [I].

From The Virginia Genealogist, Volume 15, pages 163-165: William Cox, The Case of the Ancient Planter, by Charles Hughes Hamlin, Richmond, Virginia. William Coxe is listed among the early records of Virginia as an "ancient planter" and in a muster of the inhabitants of Elizabeth Cittie, taken in January-February 1624/25 by Thomas Bouldinge, he appears as "William Coxe, age 26, came in the Godspeede 1610." From this record we can estimate that William Cox was born ca. 1598 and was probably an orphan about twelve years of age when he landed in Virginia, although it is possible that he could have arrived in the company of a relative of a different surname from his. William Coxe was one of the first to qualify as an "ancient planter," for on 20 Sept. 1628 he received title to a patent for 100 acres of land "within the precincts of Elizabeth City County," bounded south on the maine river [i.e., James River] and abutting east on the land of Dictoris Christmas, planter, and extending toward the ground now granted to Christopher Calthropp, Gent., in which there is reference to "lease, as above." The term "lease as above" refers to the Orders from the Council in England to Governor Francis West to "release and grant 100 acres of land to each "ancient planter" who came to Virginia before the time of the departure of Sir Thomas Dale." In this connection it is of interest that Sir Thomas Dale was acting Governor of Virginia in 1611 and 1612 and was succeeded in April 1616 by Capt. George Yeardley, acting governor, who was later knighted by the King and appointed Governor in 1618-19. William Coxe on 29 Nov. 1636 received another patent for 150 acres in Henrico County about two and one-half miles above Harroe Attocks [sic; a misspelling by the clerk for Arrowhattocks] lying west by north upon the maine river [i.e., James River] and then received another patent for 150 acres on 29 Dec. 1637 with the same description and of the same location. A further description of this land and the location thereof is contained in a patent dated 14 July 1637 for 100 acres granted to Alice Edloe, about two and one-half miles above Harroe attocks [sic] adjoining 350 acres of the own land and the land of William Coxe. William Coxe and Elizabeth his wife at some time went to England and on their return sold their rights for land to their neighbor Mathew Edloe, son and heir of Mathew Edloe, deceased, for a patent granted him 12 July 1637 [in which] he listed their two names among his headrights.

It has been contended by one contemporary historian that there is no evidence that William Coxe left any children or heirs to his land. While it is true that most of the records of Henrico County before 1677 have been lost or destroyed, evidence of descent from William Coxe does exist. On 14 Dec. 1656, Peter Lee was granted a patent for 126 acres in Henrico County adjoining the land belonging to the orphans of William Cox and lying southeast on the main [James] River and northeast on the land of Isaac Hutchings. In the absence of the court records, a land patent of 1665 establishes that John Cox [I] was one of these orphans. On 29 March 1665, John Cox [I] patented 550 acres in Henrico County on the north side of Harrisstocks [sic] adjoining the land of Captain Edloe. This must necessarily also have joined the land formerly owned by William Cox and later by his orphans. John Cox [I] was at least twenty-one when he patented this land and was therefore born by 1644. Not only is the description and location of this new patent significant, but also of importance is the fact that John Cox [I] named his eldest son William. On 5 Feb. 1685/86 he made a deed of gift to William for natural love and affection and therein described himself as John Coxe, Senior, of Harrowattocks. On 11 July 1693, John Coxe, Senior, made another deed of gift of 100 acres of land to another son, Bartholomew Cox, and at the same time gave a Negro girl, Doll, about one year old, to his son George Cox. The Reverand Simeon Oliver Coxe (1877-1955) made an extensive study of the Coxe-Hutchins-Burton families along the James River in Virginia. After his death his son Simeon Jr. assisted Mrs. Nellie M. Knox of Loveland, Colorado, with data for a supplement to her earlier edition of The History and Genealogy of the John Pleasants Burton Family of Lawrence County, Indiana. While gleaning through his father's file he became interested in carrying on the family research and proceeded to analyze the land grants and patents in Henrico County as recorded in Cavaliers and Pioneers. These grants and patents were plotted on topographic maps to show the location and relationship of the various lands along the James River. In comparing land ownership and movements of owners he was able to piece together the information which he included in a publication printed in 1964 and revised in 1992. On August 24, 1995, Simeon Jr. lived in a retirement home in Spanish Fort, Alabama. After long and detailed research, Simeon Jr. noted that there have been several articles written about the relationship of the Coxe-Hutchins-Burton families, but due to the scarcity of ancient records, they are largely based on conjecture and circumstantial evidence. He notes that although his papers do not have much additional hard data to present, they do have much better circumstantial evidence to support the conclusions stated. Members of these families were all adjacent or nearby land owners in the "Lilley Valley" and "Fallen Creek" areas of Henrico and in the Strawberry Bank community of Elizabeth City. The chronology of events and the nearly simultaneous movements of individuals and their interactions in land transactions point to a very close family relationship which can best be explained as noted in this publication. There has been a lot of speculation as to the Christian and family names of the wife of John Burton and the names of the wife of his son Richard Burton. Some give the Christian name of John's wife as Rachel because that was the name of his second daughter and the name Rachel was used in the Howchins family of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent County, Virginia, where some assume John obtained his bride. New Kent records do not show a Rachel of the age to be the wife of John Burton but some assume that Edward Howchins, father of Rachel baptized in 1686 in St. Peter's Parish, might have had an unknown sister named Rachel, who married John Burton. Moreover, it was then the custom to name the eldest daughter after the mother. If they followed this custom the wife of John Burton was named Mary. The Burton families and the Coxe families were intermingled in land transactions along the James River which presents the good possibility that Mary Coxe, daughter of William Coxe of Strawberry Banks and probably granddaughter of Robert Hutchins, was the wife of John Burton. If she were his wife it would account for the use of the Hutchins Burton name for the grandson of John Burton. The setting for the Coxe-Burton-Hutchins story is near a place frequently mentioned in the old records as "Arrowhattocks." In one of its various spellings it was mentioned in the writings of Captain John Smith and was some twelve miles from the "Fales" on a small neck of land on the north side of the James River. The new town of Henrico was planted in 1611 on the large neck of land, also on the north [side] of the river, just to the south of Arrowhattocks. The town was burned by the Indians in 1622, and was never rebuilt. The land is now in the Richmond National Battlefield Park, 1 miles below Fort Hoke, near the intersection of the Osborne Pike and the Kingland Road. To the north and east of Arrowhattocks was an area known as "Longfield," which was first mentioned in records of 1635, however, the owner's name is not listed. As its location coincides with part of the old "College Plantation" of 10,000 acres between the Falls and the Neck, which belonged to the Virginia Company of London, it is possible that the occupants were tenants. George Thorpe was appointed manager of the College Plantation in 1619. Seventeen people were killed there in the massacre of 1622. To the northwest of Arrowhattocks on the south side of the James River was Falling Creek, where the first iron furnace in America was established as early as 1610. In 1622, Captain John Berkley was among the 22 people killed at the iron works and others were killed at nearby plantations. In 1635 the place was called Fallen Creek. The massacre of 1622 desecrated the land around Arrowhattocks, and life was slow to return to the area. Although the Arrowhattocks area is the later setting for the Coxe-Hutchins-Burton family history, it actually begins when William Coxe, then a lad of twelve years, arrived in Virginia on Sunday, June 10, 1610, in the ship Godspeed, which formed part of the convoy headed by Thomas West, Lord De La Warr. Lord De La Warr or Thomas West (1577-1618) was the third of his family to carry the title. Thomas West had a younger brother, Francis West (1586-1633) who came to America about July 1609 but went to England early in 1610 to return to Virginia the same year. He was involved in a quarrel with Captain John Smith, who is said to have conspired with Powhatan to kill West. Smith, however, was injured by a gunpowder explosion and returned to England on the 5th of October 1609 where he defended his actions. In 1612, Francis succeeded George Percy as commander at Jamestown. The Third Lord De La Warr also had a brother Robert West who married Elizabeth Coxe. It is assumed that the 12-year-old lad William Coxe was related to Elizabeth and came to Virginia in the care of one of his numerous kinsmen. In the muster of 1624 William Coxe was then 26 years old and the only "Ancient Planter" from the Godspeed who was then surviving. On September 10, 1628, William Cox, planter, received his "Ancient Planter" grant of 100 acres on the north bank of the James River, as recorded in Land Book 1, Part 1, page 89. The location is identified as in Harwoods Neck, bounded on the west by Deep Creek, on the south by the James River, to the east by other patents, and a smaller creek known as Water's Creek. Later this area was known as the Strawberry Bank community. It is south of Blunt Point in Elizabeth City County not far from the present site of the Newport News Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Company. In 1636 he left the Strawberry Bank community and moved up the James River to land in Henrico County near Alice Edloe, probably his sister. When William Coxe arrived in Strawberry Bank a near neighbor south of Water's Creek was Robert Hutchins, the mariner. Robert had received a patent to these 100 acres below Blunt Point in May 1625. His lands on the Strawberry Bank are mentioned as abutting the land granted on 14 March 1638 to Robert Sweete. Robert Hutchins was a mariner, ship captain, and has a long but obscure history in the Virginia colony. He is first mentioned in 1611 when George Percy, commander at Jamestown, was indebted to Robert for 25 shillings (VA Hist. Mag., Vol. 57, p. 240). His land patent was dated in May 1625 and in 1628 his land was adjacent to lands then granted to Robert Sweete on Strawberry Bank. Captain John Smith in his 1630 book mentions obtaining from Master Hutchins, in London, the latest information concerning the affairs in Virginia. On July 5, 1656, a land record of Captain Christopher Calthropp mentions as bounds the Strawberry Bank land of Robert Hutchins. The evidence indicates that Robert, in the earlier years, probably kept his family in England but spent much of his life in Virginia where he probably had tenants on his land. His family has not been identified but land records indicate that he probably had two children who came to Virginia about 1633: a daughter Elizabeth Hutchins, born about 1612, who probably married William Coxe; and a son Isaac Hutchins. The headrights for Isaac's transport, along with those for Robert Craddock, were claimed in 1637 by Captain Thomas Osborne. In the same year Matthew Edlow, Jr. claimed headrights, due his father, for transporting 24 people including William Cox and his wife Elizabeth. These headrights were probably based on the Coxes returning to Virginia after a visit to England. Alice Edlow, the step-mother of Mathew, was probably a sister of William Coxe. The headrights for the original arrival of Elizabeth Hutchins in Virginia were claimed in 1642 by William Warren. This patent for several hundred acres included the present "Yorkby" near the mouth of the York River. Among the rights exchanged for the land was that of Elizabeth Hutchins. Although the patented land was on the York River, William Warren in 1633 was a near neighbor to both Robert Hutchins and William Coxe on Strawberry Bank. The dates noted for the headrights are difficult to correlate with the actual arrival of the people in the colony. Headrights were bought and sold, and even resold, and also often held for several years to accumulate sufficient rights to exchange for the desired acreage. This system was subject to abuse and consequently was abandoned soon after. William Coxe and Elizabeth were probably married about 1633 and had at least four children, two daughters and two sons: Thomas and John [I]. Thomas was mentioned in records of May 6, 1665, when it is noted that he had previously sold land at "Warrick" to Mr. John Knowles. This was part of the land on "Fallen Creek" belonging to the orphans of William Coxe. The son John [I] probably married Robert Craddock's daughter and was the only one of William's children known to have left issue. John Cox [I] was born about 1635 and died in Henrico in 1676; he had a son Richard Coxe who died about 1735 in Virginia. Richard married Mary Trent, the daughter of Henry Trent and Elizabeth Sherman, and the granddaughter of Henry Sherman and his wife Cisley, who was the widow of Isaac Hutchins. Mary Trent and Richard Coxe had a daughter Elizabeth Cox, born February 25, 1713. About 1731 their daughter Elizabeth married Strangeman Hutchins, son of Nicholas Hutchins and Mary Watkins. The Coxe-Hutchins-Burton families are first recorded around Arrowhattocks starting on November 10, 1635, when Alice Edloe, widow, obtained 350 acres in Henrico County, between "Harrow Attocks" and the Falls on the same side of the river that "Harrow Attocks" lyeth. The Great Swamp was on the east side of her land. The Falling Creek was "over against," across the river and opposite "The Great Field" lands of Alice. Her land was in part of the old "College Plantation." These lands are located on the James River about nine miles below the present Richmond. Her daughter Hannah Boyce also patented lands joining her mother. The lands patented in 1635 by Alice Edloe, widow, were in the area of Henrico County destroyed by the Indians in 1622. Alice Edloe was the widow of Luke Boyce who arrived in the colony on the Edwin in May of 1619. His wife Alice and their daughter Hannah, born about [date cut off on photocopy] in England, arrived in 1622 on the Bona Nova. Luke died on the 21st of June 1625 and Alice then married Mathew Edloe, who died about 16[remainder of year cut off on photocopy]. When Alice and Hannah moved north, her step-son Mathew, Jr. stayed on his father's land in James City, but records referred to Alice as the owner. About a year later William Coxe with his wife Elizabeth and Isaac Hutchins, who probably was his brother-in-law, obtained land in Henrico next to Alice Edloe. William probably lived in the Varina community from which he represented Henrico as a Burgess in 1646. He is at times confused with the prominent Richard Cocke family which arrived in the colony about 1635 but who had no William of the age of Willam Coxe. William Coxe retained his 100 acres "Ancient Planter" seat on Strawberry Bank, although presumably his 10-year lease had expired in 1638 but was probably renewed, for in 1642 he was still recorded as the owner of these lands. William and Alice both recorded their Henrico patents on the same day, November 29, 1636. In 1638 William Coxe and Isaac Hutchins had joint ownership of land in the "Lilly Valley" area of Henrico next to Alice. About 1652 John Burton probably married Mary Coxe, daughter of William Coxe and Elizabeth Hutchins. Their first child, Mary Burton, was born in 1654, about two years before the death of William Coxe. After his death his widow, Elizabeth (Hutchins?) Coxe married William Elam, whose will dated 1688 mentions his son-in-law John Cox [I] (son-in-law then meant step-son). She died in 1665 and John Coxe [I] and Mary (Coxe) Burton, children of William and Elizabeth Coxe, probably settled her estate. Alice (Coxe?) Edloe's daughter Hannah Boyce on the 11th of November 1635 also obtained 300 acres near Arrowhattocks joining upon the north side of the land of Alice Edloe, her mother. This claim was renewed on the 13th of July 1637. The land on the north side of Hannah's property was acquired on June 1, 1636 by James Place when he was granted 550 acres. James Place's land was later found to escheate to his Majesty as by inquisition dated September 5, 1663, and was then re-granted on December 30, 1663 to John Brown and Edward Hatcher. James Place was also assigned an additional 60 acres to the north of his new land on June 14, 1636 by Christopher Branche. These 60 acres were later acquired on April 10, 1638 by John (or Thomas) Barton. On the 29th of November 1636, William Coxe obtained 150 acres on the east side of the Great Swamp which separated his land from the land of Alice Edloe. He also must have acquired additional lands to the east, for in 1637 he assigns these easterly lands to Robert Craddock and John Davis. Robert Craddock's daughter was later to marry William's son John Coxe [I], and John Davis was later to marry Mary Burton, daughter of John Burton and Mary Coxe, and granddaughter of William Coxe. John Davis, the husband of Mary Burton, named the land he acquired from William Coxe as "Longfield." Davis increased his land on October 31, 1642, when he acquired an additional 200 acres adjacent to his Longfield patent extending northwest towards the lands of Cornelius de Hull. At this time John Davis was given credit for the transport of his wife Mary Davis and her three servants and also John Cox [I] and others. The plantation "Longfield" was sold by John Davis to John Coxe [I] in 1665, about the time of the death of Elizabeth Coxe, mother of John Coxe [I]. John Coxe [I] then assigned the 700-acre plantation "Longfield" to John Burton, husband of his sister Mary Coxe, probably as her share of her mother's estate. John Coxe [I] then acquired for himself a plantation of 550 acres at Arrowhattocks. William, who died about 1656, also had 250 acres of land across the river at the mouth of Falling Creek obtained in partnership with Isaac Hutchins on the 1st of September 1642. These lands belonged on December 14, 1656, to "the orphans" (then meaning heirs, not minor children) of William Coxe. On that date Peter Lee acquired 126 acres called "Worricke" bounded on the southwest by a small run, at a place called London Bridge, which divided his land from land belonging to the orphans of William Coxe, bounded on the southeast by the main river and on the northeast by Isaac Hutchins. Isaac Hutchins also obtained his 378-acre grant of land in "Worricks" on the 14th of December 1656. It was lying next to land of Peter Lee, southeast on the main river and northeast to a place called "Porringers Spring." Isaac was probably the son of Robert Hutchins, the mariner, and brother to Elizabeth Coxe, wife of William Coxe. Isaac had other lands on the south side of the river near "Worricks," for on the 1st of September 1642, he bought 250 acres in partnership with William Coxe at the mouth of Falling Creek. The "Worricks" land was in addition to land Isaac had on the north side of the James River near "Lilly Valley" as noted when on May 29, 1638, Robert Craddock acquired 300 acres in Henrico County, bounding northly on a little creek towards "Lilley Valley" upon land of William Coxe and Isaac Hutchins and south bounding on land of John Davis. This puts the land of Isaac east of the "Great Field" of Alice Edloe. Isaac Hutchins probably came to Virginia about 1633 prior to the 16th of June 1637 when Captain Thomas Osborne was given credit for Isaac's headrights. Isaac married Cicely "Sisly" and had one child, a son Robert, who was mentioned in Isaac's will of February 23, 1656. In April 1714 the Henrico court concluded that Robert, son of Isaac, died under age and without issue, and thus the lands of Isaac reverted to his wife Cicely. She had married Henry Sherman after the death of Isaac. Her granddaughter, Mary Trent, married Richard Coxe, the grandson of William Coxe. Mary Trent and Richard Cox had a daughter Elizabeth Cox, born February 25, 1713, who about 1731 married Strangeman Hutchins, son of Nicholas Hutchins and Mary Watkins of Henrico County.On the same day, November 29, 1636, that William Coxe was awarded his claim for land east of the Great Swamp of Alice Edloe, she obtained an additional 50 acres of land on the north side of the river about halfway between "The Great Field" and and the Arrowhattocks neck. The north edge of this land adjoined "Longfield." Also, because of a land dispute on June 1, 1637, Alice Edloe, widow, renewed her claim for the 350 acres of "The Great Field" between Arrowhattocks and the Falls, and on the 14th of July in the same year she claims the 100 acres of the swamp between "The Great Field and the lands of her brother, William Coxe, to the east. On the 8th of December 1653 Mathew Edloe, her step-son (we now use the term step-son but at that time it was called son-in-law), was granted 281 acres near "Harrahatocks." He assigned this land to Thomas Taylor on the 20th of March 1662. On August 15, 1637, the 600 unoccupied acres south of the old "Longfield" and north of the river between the lands of William Coxe and the 50 acres she just acquired were acquired by Robert Craddock and John Davis. This acquisition included 300 acres which were assigned by William Coxe and Richard Carpenter. Part of the 600 acres of Craddock and Davis was on the south side of the river "over against" the lands of William Coxe. John Davis, the husband of Mary Burton, granddaughter of William Coxe, named the land he acquired from William Coxe as "Longfield." Craddock later sold this land to John Cox [I], who assigned it to John Burton. Burton also obtained 100 additional acres for transporting two people. In 1637 came the advent of large plantations near Arrowhattocks when on February 6, 1637, Captain Thomas Osborne established the 1,000-acre plantation "Fearing" over against (across the river and opposite) Arrowhattocks. Thomas Osborne was given credit for transporting Robert Craddock, Isaac Hutchins, and others. On the 16th of June 1637, Thomas Osborne, Jr. also obtained 500 acres, which he called "Batchelers Bancke," adjoining the north side of "Fearing." On September 24, 1638, Alice Edloe increased her 50-acre "lot" just above Arrowhattocks to 150 acres (probably based on a resurvey of the land). In 1642 the land east and south of "Mrs. Edloe's Swamp" was acquired by Cornelius de Hull. The creek on the north of his land, which feeds into the swamp, he named "Lilley Valley." Later the name was changed to Cornelius Creek. This was the same land acquired in 1637 by William Coxe, but the book Cavaliers and Pioneers does not record the acquisition by de Hull. On October 31, 1642, de Hull extended his land known as Lilley Valley by 502 acres beginning next to Mrs. Edloe's Swamp, near his own land and southeast upon John Davis and southwest to the river. Part of this land, 250 acres, was in the grant to William Coxe in 1637. Upon the death of his mother, about 1665, John Coxe [I] bought "Longfield," of 700 acres, on March 22, 1665, from John Davis and assigned it to John Burton, husband of Mary Coxe his sister, probably as her share of her mother's estate. Burton called the estate "Oldfield." However, many writers now refer to the Burton family of "Longfield." At the same time John Coxe [I] acquired his 550-acre plantation at Arrowhattocks. John Cox [I]'s new plantation and John Burton's "Oldfield" were separated by the 150 acres of land which Captain Mathew Edloe obtained in 1653. John Burton (1632-1689) and his wife Mary (Coxe) Burton had seven children, among them Robert Coxe [?] of "Longfields." Robert (1665-1724) married Mary, probably a Nowell, and have five children, one being named Hutchins Burton (1694-1763). Hutchins Burton married Susannah Allen and became the progenitor of numerous Hutchins Burtons, one a governor of North Carolina, long after the source of the name had been forgotten. Although Simon Oliver Coxe (1877-1955) did extensive research on the Coxe family of Arrowhattocks, he is a descendant of William Coxe through John Burton who married Mary Coxe, daughter of William Coxe. His own Coxe paternal line is an entirely different family not associated with the James River Coxes.

From Virginia Genealogical Society Quarterly, Volume 18, Number 4, pages 116-119: Cox-Coxe Family of "Bluestone" and "Finneywood," Brunswick-Lunenburg-Mecklenburg Counties, contributed by Nettie Leitch Major:
This particular branch of the southside Virginia Cox family was traced through identity of lands and how they were acquired by deeds and wills. The first grants for "Bluestone" and "Finneywood" were recorded in Brunswick County, and when Lunenburg was formed therefrom, successive deeds were recorded in that county, identified by tract and creek names of Bluestone and Finneywood. When Mecklenburg County was formed the same lands were then found in that county.It has not been proven definitely that John Coxe and his wife Mary Kennon of Henrico County are the ancestors of John Cox of "Bluestone." Deeds and wills of Henrico County show that John Cox married Mary Kennon before 25 September 1682 (Book 1677-1692, page 225). This John Coxe died testate in Henrico County 6 February 1696 and named his children: John inherited "New Plantation," near Bartholomew Cox's land; Richard was given slaves; Bartholomew was given plantation where he now lives near the river bottom; Henry was given the "bed I lye on" and a negro; George the plantation "I now live on" and the neck of land from Jarret's Spring to Capt. Gardner's Creek, and other items; wife Mary was given silver spoons. The balance of the estate was divided between sons John Cox, William Cox, Bartholomew Cox, Henry Cox, and George Cox; son George was executor. Witnesses were John Ironmonger and Teb(?) Taylor. The subsequent use of the name of Bartholomew Cox in the area of Bluestone and Finneywood may suggest a connection, but otherwise the name John is too frequent in each Cox family to assume much significance.

Brunswick Patents. 1728. Thomas Cocke, 790 acres north side of the Roanoke River (Book 13, page 347). Thomas Cocke, 1,245 acres north side of Meherrin River (Book 14, page 507, year 1732). William Byrd, 1,480 acres on north side of Roanoke River on both sides of Blue Stone Creek (Book 17, page 465, year 1737); see later connection of John Cox's lands and "Burd" lands.

The Du Sauchoy Surname Like Many other French names, unpronounceable to English and Dutch tongues, this name has undergone various changes in spelling. In the Dutch church baptismal records it is always written Du Secoy and Du Secay. In the county records, often copied by careless or illiterate clerks, the name is spelled in the following different ways: Dessoway, Dessway, Desway, Disachay, Disasway, Disaway, Disosway, Dissasway, Dissosway, Dissossway, Dissoway, Du Secoy, Duessossway, Deusosway, Dusachoy, Dusosoy, Dusoseay, Dusosway, Dussoway, DusSouchoy, dusuchoy, Dusway, etc.The name of du Sauchoy is found among the Huguenot families who left France before the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. Marc du Sauchoy, the progenitor of the family in America, who was born in 1626, was a native of Amiers, Picardy, France, from the Valley of the Somme. The lords du Sauchoy came from the House of Clermont, in the Beauvaises; one of them is known to have been with the Duke of Normandy at the Conquest. Many Huguenots of Picardy were sentenced to banishment or imprisonment. Among the number was Marc du Sauchoy. The nearness of the low countries offered facilities of escape and 30 families made their home in Harlem and from Holland, subsequently crossing the ocean, founded the new Harlem, on Manhattan Island, then a wilderness.In 1655, after iving two or three years in Holland, Marc made his first voyage to New Netherland; sufficiently pleased with the country, he decided to make it his future home. He returned to Leyden, Holland and married March 11, 1657 to Elizabeth Rossignol or Rossignil, daughter of Guilliame Rossignil, and on April 2 again he sailed from Amsterdam for Manhattan on the ship "Draetaat". In 1657 he bought a farm in Brooklyn and on April 10, 1661 transferred his church connection from New Amsterdam to htis place. On July 2, 1675 we find his name as purchaser of a "book of Martyrs" and others from the estate of Jean le Comte for 80 guilders. For 20 years 1657-77, he was a framer and miller in Long Island, Harlem and Fordham. In Nov. 1679 he bought lots on ?aarn's hook but sold them "presently". On June 7, 1683 he and his wife took letters from the Dutch Reformed Church in New Amsterdam to the French church newly formed under Rev. Pierre Daille. He moved to Staten Island April 5, 1684, owned 255 acres there and was still living there oct. 1, 1706, aged 80 yrs.The fact that the original emigrants were Huguenots, is evidence of the undivided piety, and iti is said that during the War of the Revolution, though surrounded by enemies, they were firm in their adherence to the cause of their country.There are several of the name mentioned in the county records as having pruchased land as early as 1687. A portion of the land originally purchased by this family (500 acres) and the stone housse erected upon it was still owned and occupied by some of the descendants in 1877.Elizabeth (Rossignol) du Sauchoy, wife of Marc, was referred to in the Dutch church records as Lysbeth Nacstegaal, the Dutch word for Rossignol, or Nightengale.Children of Marc & Elizabeth:1.MADELAINE Du SAUCHOY bap. 1658, m: 1671 Martin Hardewyn2.

This is also my umpteenth grandmother. The beginning of the Hardin family in America. They came to New Amsterdam (New York) with their parents, Hugenots fleeing religous persecution in France. She married Martin Hardewyn (also from a hugenot family from Rouen France) in 1671, and had 6 children which they named "Hardin" upon birth, the american spelling of the name Hardewyn.- lynne hardin

James Bobbitt

Birth: 1786, USA
Death: unknown
Tennessee, USA

The Bobbitt Family In America Book lists James Bobbitt dying in 1868, he was very much alive at that time. They even contradict themselves a few paragraphs down when they list him in the 1870 census with his wife Sara. I have also inspected Carroll Co. TN court records involving land sales in 1877- Dec. 1878 which indicate that he is still living. He is not in the June 1, 1880 census and Sara is living with her son, M. P., listed as a widow. So James Bobbitt died some time between Dec. 1878 and June 1, 1880. James was my ggggrandfather through his son, Stephen. Are you a Bobbit relative? Toni KeeMedina, Gibson Co., TN

Humphrey De Bohun, V

Birth: 1225
Hereford
Herefordshire, England
Death: Aug. 27, 1265
Beeston
Cheshire, England

Humphry de Bohun was the son of Humphry IV deBohun, an Anglo-Norman aristocrat, and Maud deLusignan, that was from a family of Crusaders. Humpphry married Eleanor deBraose some time after August 1241, at Brecknock, Breconshire, She was the youngest daughter and co-heiress of the powerful Marcher lord William de Braose, 10th Lord Abergavenny, and Eva Marshal, both of whom held considerable lordships and domains in the Welsh Marches and Ireland. Together Humphrey and Eleanor had three children: (1)Humphrey de Bohun, 3rd Earl of Hereford (c.1249- 31 December 1298), married Maud de Fiennes, daughter of Enguerrand II de Fiennes and Isabelle de Conde, by whom he had issue, including Humphrey de Bohun, 4th Earl of Hereford; (2)Gilbert de Bohun, married Margaret whose surname is not known and by whom he had issue. His brother granted him Eleanor's lands in Ireland; and (3)Alianore de Bohun (died 20 February 1314, buried Walden Abbey). She married Robert de Ferrers, 6th Earl of Derby on 26 June 1269 and they had two children.
Humphrey V died 10 years prior to his father, so he was never made Earl. Humphrey V and his father, Humphrey IV were both involved in the Baron Wars. Humphrey (IV) de Bohun had been part of the baronial opposition of Simon de Montfort, but later gone over to the royal side. He was taken prisoner at the Battle of Lewes in May 1264, but was restored to favour after the royalist victory at the Battle of Evesham the next year. Humphrey (V) de Bohun had remained loyal to the baronial side throughout the Barons' War, and was captured at Evesham on 4 August 1265. In October that year Humphrey (V) died in captivity at Beeston Castle in Cheshire from injuries he had sustained in the battle.
