New Kent County once formed part of Charles River County, one of the eight shires into which the colony of Virginia was divided in 1634. It origiinally included part or all of the present day counties of King &amp; Queen, King William, Spotsylvania and Hanover, the modern day borders of New Kent took place in 1766 through exchange of land with James City County. Actually, researchers will see the mention of "Brick House". This was the first town and this was the seat of the first government. This historical site knows its history, starting with Nathaniel Bacon who, when the Governor refused to do anything about Indians who killed settlers and looted the area, formed his famous rebellion among his neighbors. The historical genealogy of the Bacon family is traced on&nbsp;</span><a href="https://virginiapioneers.net/" style="background-color: white; color: green; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.0667px; text-decoration-line: none;">Virginia Pioneers</a><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;">&nbsp;and is available to members. The village of New Kent appears to have been the County seat since 1691. Most of the County's colonial records were destroyed in the burning of the clerk's office in 1787, and later records were destroyed in the burning of Richmond during the Civil War. Providence Forge was one of the earliest settlements and the site of a colonial forge that was destroyed by Banister Tarleton during the Revolutionary War. Another site, St. Peter's Church at Talleysville was established in 1678 and built in 1701. It was enlarged in 1740 by the addition of a tower and vestry room and in the 1760's by the building of a north wing, believed to have been torn down in 1854. Martha Dandridge Custis who lived in White House on the Pamunkey, worshiped here at the time of her marriage to George Washington. The road leading from Richmond to Williamsburg is one oldest roads in America.&nbsp;</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;" /><strong style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;">New Kent Wills, Estates, Marriages available to members of&nbsp;<a href="https://virginiapioneers.net/" style="color: green; font-size: 13.0667px; text-decoration-line: none;">Virginia Pioneers</a></strong><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;"></span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;" /><strong style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;">Marriages</strong><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;" /><br /><ul style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;"><li style="font-size: small; list-style-type: none;">Marriages to 1699</li><li style="font-size: small; list-style-type: none;">Consents and Licenses</li></ul><strong style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;">Indexes to Probate Records</strong><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;"></span><br /><ul style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;"><li style="font-size: small; list-style-type: none;">Index to Wills 1864-1887</li><li style="font-size: small; list-style-type: none;">Index to Wills, Inventories, Appraisements, 1880-1938</li></ul><strong style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;">Images of Wills 1864-1887</strong><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 13.3333px;">Testators: Adams John;Apperson, John C.;Atkinson, Thomas M.;Atkinson, William F.;Bailey, Nancy;Baker, Sarah;Bailey, William B.;Bond William;Bowles, Ira;Brawers, William B.;Chandler, Harman;Chandler, Robert;Christian, Ann; Couch, Isaac;Craborn, Judith;Crump, Anderson;Crump, William B.; Drake, Robert;Ellyson, Daniel;Elmore, James;Foster, Sarah;Fox, Susan;Gordon, John N.;Higgins, John;Higgins, Josiah;Jones, Chesley;Jones, Roland;Lester, Elizabeth;MacGhee, John;Merry, William B.;Moody, Phil;Odell, Thomas;Otey, Isaac;Parrish, Mary; Pervue, Alexander;Pearman, Thomas;Pollard, Caroline Nelson; Pollard, E.

And it is more accurate because it was written by an ancestor who wished to be remembered, and found later in time; after he had gone. It usually provides all the names of the children and their spouses, grandchildren, siblings, parents and could even include the names of relatives residing in foreign countries. Reading an old last will and testament, along with its inventories, sales, annual returns and other estate data is an open book into the life experiences of another person. Also, it provide multiple clues to discovering other relatives, should we examine it more closely. Not only do we get the whereabouts of family members, but also origins. One mention of a relative in a foreign country, for example, is worth thousands of research hours. Actually, estate details provide a parcel of clues in the Annual Returns. These returns commence with the last illness, funeral details, and as additional returns are filed (annually until the final settlement), tidbits appear of personal data appears, such as letters received from relatives in other places and all sorts of clues where to search next. Names of relatives, neighbors and friends are plastered all over those records. And do not forget to search for receipts! If you do this much, more family members will emerge and as well as a pattern of clues.</span><br /><br /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><a href="https://virginia.net/counties/countiesidx.html">Index to Virginia Wills and Estates</a><br /><br /><table align="center" border="0"><tbody><tr><td align="center"><a href="https://georgiapioneers.com/subscribe/subscribe.html"><img alt="Online Genealogy" src="https://georgiapioneers.com/images/OnlineGenealogy.png" width="99%" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-1383276186282747"; /* 120x90, created 3/15/10 */ google_ad_slot = "4884514027"; google_ad_width = 120; google_ad_height = 90; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> <a href="https://www.virginiapioneers.net">Trace your Virginia Ancestors</a></div>Georgia Pioneershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09144807411526106518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329083864357885846.post-46731232524522667012019-06-28T15:21:00.000-04:002019-06-28T15:21:00.419-04:00<h1 style="background: white; color: burlywood; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 18pt; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">Norfolk County Genealogy, Wills, Estates, Deeds, Marriages, Indexes to Probate Records</h1><img alt="Norfolk Virginia" src="https://virginiapioneers.net/images/norfolkva.jpg" style="background-color: white; float: right; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" width="55%" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">If you have Virginia ancestors, Norfolk is one of the first counties to research. The earliest records survived, thus providing a scope of genealogical discoveries. Norfolk County was created in 1691 and existed as a county until 1963 when it was consolidated with the city of South Norfolk to form the new City of Chesapeake. After the American Civil War, for a period of about 100 years, portions of Norfolk County were lost and the territory of the county reduced as they became parts of the separate and growing independent cities of Norfolk, Portsmouth and South Norfolk. Many of the earliest records did not survive, but Bks have been published on Lower Norfolk County.&nbsp;</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Suggested Books: Lower Norfolk County, Virginia Court Records: Bk A, 1637-1646 and Bk B, 1646-1651/2; Historical Southern Families by Boddie; Transcription of Lower Norfolk County, Virginia Records.

His wife sold four of these during his absence from Virginia to meet the expense of sending her daughter to school. By the terms of the will of John Russell, his daughter was to continue to be educated until she should marry.&nbsp;</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Sources: Lower Norfolk Records, vol. 1656-66, p. 438.&nbsp;</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><strong style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Norfolk County Wills, Estates, Marriages available to members of&nbsp;<a href="https://virginiapioneers.net/" style="color: green; font-size: 15.68px; text-decoration-line: none;">Virginia Pioneers</a></strong><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><strong style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Miscellaneous Probate Records</strong><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">1674 Court Orders, Bk E, pp. 124</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">1675 Court Orders, Bk E, pp. 124-126</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Bouring, John (1672 LWT) Order Bk E, pp. 124</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Connor, Lewis and Henry Jenkins and Elizabeth Lawson, 1709, Deed Bk 8, pp. 154-156</span><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Corbett, John and Sarah.

Other Europeans began migrating during the middle of the 17th century. The London Company and Virginia Company were invested in the colony and shipped people and supplies into Jamestown on a continuous basis dating from 1607. Can one locate all the ship manifests? No. Although there is a list of the first voyagers to Jamestown on this website, we have been unable to discover the ship manifests. The records of Jamestown were destroyed during an armed rebellion in 1676 when the settlers, led by Nathaniel Bacon against the rule of Governor William Berkeley, burned the town. An alternate place to research would be Williamsburg (York County).&nbsp;</span><br /><br /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><a href="https://virginia.net/counties/countiesidx.html">Index to Virginia Wills and Estates</a><br /><br /><table align="center" border="0"><tbody><tr><td align="center"><a href="https://georgiapioneers.com/subscribe/subscribe.html"><img alt="Online Genealogy" src="https://georgiapioneers.com/images/OnlineGenealogy.png" width="99%" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-1383276186282747";

For various reasons, the Ship Manifest was not always given over at the time of arrival. And, sometimes several months passed after the voyage. The genealogist can expect to learn the name of the vessel and date of entry into the United States. A list of passengers with information concerning their nationality, where born, age, height color of hair, occupation, and place of last residence. The National Archives has records of arrivals to the United States from foreign ports between approximately 1820 and 1982 and are arranged by Port of Arrival. As in all research, diligence is the key. However, one also needs to educate himself concerning common ports of entry for different time periods.</span><br /><br /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><a href="https://virginia.net/counties/countiesidx.html">Index to Virginia Wills and Estates</a><br /><br /><table align="center" border="0"><tbody><tr><td align="center"><a href="https://georgiapioneers.com/subscribe/subscribe.html"><img alt="Online Genealogy" src="https://georgiapioneers.com/images/OnlineGenealogy.png" width="99%" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-1383276186282747"; /* 120x90, created 3/15/10 */ google_ad_slot = "4884514027"; google_ad_width = 120; google_ad_height = 90; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> <a href="https://www.virginiapioneers.net">Trace your Virginia Ancestors</a></div>Georgia Pioneershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09144807411526106518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329083864357885846.post-67185941351614107132019-06-14T15:18:00.000-04:002019-06-14T15:18:02.493-04:00<h1 style="background: white; color: burlywood; font-family: &quot;Lucida Console&quot;; font-size: 16pt; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">Nottoway County Genealogy, Wills, Estates, Probate Records</h1><img alt="Burkeville, Virginia" height="149" src="https://virginiapioneers.net/images/burkevilleva.jpg" style="background-color: white; border: 0px solid white; float: right; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 14.6667px;" title="Burkesville" width="200" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 14.6667px;">In 1788 the Nottoway Parish district of Amelia County was established as Nottoway County.

It was not until later that women were brought over for the purpose of marriage. The wife of my own ancestor, Gabriel Holland, was killed in the massacre of 1622. This is probably the situation for other ancestors as well. He then married a widow whose husband had been slain and there a slight mention of his taking up the lot previously owned by her husband. However, two or three years later, he returned to London and married the third time. Gabriel was appointed one of the&nbsp;Burgesses&nbsp;for Jamestown, and made several trips to London on the business of the colony. One issue they were discussing is the taxing of tobacco, and Gabriel was sent to have an audience with King Charles I. This was a period when the king was not convening Parliament, so Gabriel's attempts to settle this tax, went unresolved. I found some mention of this in the English Court of Chancery. We have to remember that the colony was subjugated to the King, and that the King's business was tended by&nbsp;Burgesses. The accounts of the House of&nbsp;Burgesses&nbsp;published in the Virginia Magazine is another instance where tidbits of information can be gleaned and studied.&nbsp;</span><br /><div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 14.6667px;"><br /></span></div><br /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><hr color="#cccccc" width="99%" /><a href="https://virginia.net/counties/countiesidx.html">Index to Virginia Wills and Estates</a><br /><br /><table align="center" border="0"><tbody><tr><td align="center"><a href="https://georgiapioneers.com/subscribe/subscribe.html"><img alt="Online Genealogy" src="https://georgiapioneers.com/images/OnlineGenealogy.png" width="99%" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-1383276186282747"; /* 120x90, created 3/15/10 */ google_ad_slot = "4884514027"; google_ad_width = 120; google_ad_height = 90; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> <a href="https://www.virginiapioneers.net">Trace your Virginia Ancestors</a></div>Georgia Pioneershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09144807411526106518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329083864357885846.post-14468991022627228372019-06-07T15:17:00.000-04:002019-06-07T15:17:02.073-04:00<h1 style="background: white; color: burlywood; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 18pt; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: center;">Orange County Genealogy, Wills, Estates, Marriages, Maps, Virginia Probate Records</h1><img alt="Barboursville" src="https://virginiapioneers.net/images/orangebarboursville.jpg" style="background-color: white; float: right; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" title="Barboursville, Virginia" width="99%" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Pegasus; font-size: 16px;">Orange County was created in 1738 from Augusta County, Virginia.
