; Per Tayloe: "The first of the name in Virginia was Colonel William Tayloe who came to the colony in the first half of the 17th century and was settled in York county. He was a member of the House of Burgesses for that county in 1643 and in 1647 and was appointed to the Council in 1651. He was again a member of that body in 1655 and probably died not long after. He left no issue. His name is commonly misspelled Taylor, but he himself clearly seplls it Tayloe. He married elizabeth daughter of Richard Kingsmill, Esquire of James City county. After his death, she married Honorable Nathaniel Bacon, President of the Council and "the epitaph on her tomb (now is St. Paul's churchyard in Norfolk) dvides the honors curiously by naming on ly Mr. Bacon as her husband, but bearing as arms Kingsmill impaling Tayloe".

     Richard Kingsmill, an ancient planter, came to Virginia in the Delaware, perhaps as early as 1610. He was probably the third son of Sir William Kingsmill of Sidmonton, Hampshire, England and wife Bridget Raleigh. Richard Kingsmill was the colonial customs inspector for the upper James River. He had Kingsmill Plantation and at Jamestown the Island house, with Neighbors,William Fairfax in 1619, then owned by Rev Buck 1620 (when Rev Buck died in 1624 he became his children guardians) Next door was Robert Evans , Mary Bailey property 1619, an orphan whose guardian was Richard Bayley. In 1619 he witnesses a treaty that Gov George Yearly made with the Chickahominy Indians. He was a prominent member of the Jamestown Island community and severed as its burgess in 1623-1625 and 1629. He appeared in the 1623 List of the Living and dead and 1624 Census, and 1625 Muster at ye Neck O' Land and/or Ye Neck of Land in the Woods. In Feb 1624 he is listed with wife (Jane) a son, a daughter and four servants (one of whom was African) There were residing in the Neck O'Land behind Jamestown Island, on land patented by the late Richard Buck. In Feb 1625, when a muster was taken, the Kingsmill household was still living in the Neck O'Land, with Jane Kingsmill, Susan (probably Elizabeth) and son Nathaniel age 5, The had 4 indentured servants (Horten Wright, John Jackson, Isabell Pratt, and Edward, an African). The household was credited with 5 houses, a boat, some livestock, and an ample supply of provisions and weaponry. Jane Kingsmill appeared in court in June 1624 to testify in a breach of promise suit involving one of the Rev. Richard Buck's maid servants. Richard was on the Jury
     Early in 1624, Daniel Lucy DANIEL LUCY, the first recorded Lucy in America, emigrated to Jamestown, Virginia on the ship “Susan” in June 1624.( https://www.lucey.net/webpage60.htm)
     "This is confirmed in a letter sent earlier in the year, from Daniel Lucy to his kinsman, RICHARD KINGSMILL, already in Jamestown, delivered by Thomas Smith, the master of the ship “Hopewell” (also known as “Great Hopewell”). The letter states that Daniel, his wife and son Samuel would be sailing on the ship “Susan” with Richard’s own wife Jane and his children Nathaniel and Susan. The “Susan” was a small vessel from the Port of London; the first magazine ship, whose cargo was initially restricted to clothing. Research has suggested that Daniel Lucy was the son of Timothy Lucy and Susanna Fanshawe, the youngest son of Sir William Lucy (c1510-1551) and Ann Fermer of Charlecote."
     Kingsmill gained political prominence in the Colony and served as a representative for James City at the General Assemblies of 1624, 1625 and 1629 (Meyer and Dorman 1987, 385).
     Jan 24, 1625 Captain Ralph Hamor assigned 100 acres of land to Richard Kingsmill. 4/19/1625 patented "Island Tract" (probably 120 acres) On May 8, 1626, Kingsmill received a court order for Hamor's 100 acres and 100 acres he had acquired from Thomas Carter, an ancient planter.
     Kingsmills' aggretate of 200 acres was in Archer's Hope, the territory that straddles College Creek. In May 1625 when a list of patented land was sent to England, Richard Kingsmill, was credited with two parcels in Archer's Hope, neitherr of which was described as "planted" . Probably the only thing that kept Archer's Hope from being chosen as the site of Jamestown was that the James River channel strayed too dar from shore there. Explored on May 12, 1607. The next day the explorer came to an island 4 miles upstream from Archer's hope , a place where whips could ride so close to land they could be marred to the tress. (p33 Kingsmill Plantations 1619-1800:Archaeology of Country Life in Colonial Virginia, William M. Kelso) So up till that time he was at Jamestown Island with the Children of Rev Buck improving the land as guardian for them. Afterwards he planted his Archer's Hope land but eventually sold it to Lewis Burwell.
     1626 Richard and his wife took Peleg Buck into their house after his guardian died.
     1628 Richard Kingsmill was arrested for indebtedness by Jamestown Merchant Richard Stephens. Later that year Richard Kingsmill and John Jackson were sued .
     1630 Kingsmill informed the General Court that De. John Pott had stolen some cattle.
     After Richard Kingsmill's death, his widow Jane, married Ambrose Harmer, who immediately sought custody of the Buck estate. (Jane's over share of 40 acres.)
     Richard left 80 acres to his daughter Elizabeth Kingsmill Tayloe Bacon. She was born 1624 either omitted from the 1624 census or mis-identified as Susan. She outlived her brother Nathaniel and inherited the bulk of her fathers estate prior to Sep 1638. By that date she had married William Tayloe of Chiskiack, a York County Burgess. After After William Tayloes death in 1655 she became the second wife of Col. Nathaniel Bacon "The Elder" of King's Creek Plantation in york Couty. It is uncertain what use the Bacon's made of Tract A.
     1652 Mrs Jane Harmer (having married Ambrose Harmer in 1638) patented 2000 acres in Northumberland County (out of York County). She died or sold her Jamestown Island land sometime prior to June 5, 1657.
     In 1676 when the rebel Nathaniel Bacon "The younger" (nephew of the Col) built a trench across the isthmus leading into Jamestown Island, his aunt Elizabeth was one of the women he played upon the ramparts to shield his men from Gov. Berkeley's attack.
     Nov 6, 1661, Col Nathaniel Bacon and his wife, Elizabeth Kingsmill Tayloe Bacon sold 80 acres of her late father's Jamestown Island Plantation, (Tract A on NPS Tract Study) to Nicholas Meriwether. The deed cited an agreement made on April 30, 1661, whereby the Bacon couple agreed to exchange "a deviant of Land belongs to us Scituate in James City Island commonly called the Iland house" for a certain sum of money.
     The verbal boundary description for the tract proceeded in a clockwise direction. It commenced "westwardly By or without an old Ditch cross ye old field nigh ye great poplar called Mrs. Harmers greate poplar, Northwardly by the marsh of kings mills Creeke, Southwardly by the marsh or kingsville Creeke, and by a branch of Pitch & Tarr Swampe." It is said to be the land "formerly in ye possession of Richard Kingsmill decd & is due unto the sd Elizabeth Bacon as being ye daughter & heir of the sd Richard Kingsmill.
     The National Park Service (NPS) has a published study on the website for Jamestown. for the land patents. Following the land down to John Ambler 1739. Which would place the context if the Land from the River Front of Jamestown Island House to present ruins of Ambler Plantion next to the William Pierce Tract.
