     ""He was married probably about 1748 to Judah.⁴ Her maiden name and parentage are unknown. She was probably born about 1728. Judah Nalle was listed in the 1810 census of Culpeper Co., Va., the only erson in her household and over forty-five years of age.⁵ She was not listed in 1820, so was likely deceased.⁶
     "The first record located for "Richard Nalle Junr,"⁷ was a marginal notation on a recorded grantee deed of his Father: "Delivered to Richard Nalle Junr. the 13 Day of November 174.7."⁸
     "On 4 Sept. 1750 "Richard Nalle junior of the County of Culpeper" was granted 400 acres of "waste and ungranted land in the Fork commonly called the Gourd Vine Fork in the said County." Also mentioned in the description of the land was "Giants Castle Mountain." The grant was from "The Right Honourable Thomas Lord Fairfax. . . Proprietor of the Northern Neck of Virginia!'⁹
     "On 19 Oct. 1778 Richard Nalle and his wife sold the 400 acres of land "in the goardvine fork of Rappahannock River Joining on the Lower side Giants Castle Mountain."¹⁰
     "During the American Revolution Richard Nalle supplied beef and on 14 Aug. 1783 received '3L/lls/5p for "beef fur. C.P. Law as per cert."¹¹
     "In 1780 Richard Nalle was issued "Land Office Treasury Warrants" for land in Kentucky. He was subsequently granted several hundred acres in then Jefferson County, most of it located on the waters of Beech Fork.¹²
     "Whether Richard Nalle ever saw his Kentucky land is doubtful, for on 7 Dec. 1785, "Being sick of Body But of sound Mind and memory" "Richard Nail of Culpeper County" made his last will. Probated 18 Dec. 1786, the will named his wife Judah and "my Daughter Susannah Burk her heirs of her Body Equally Divided among all the Children the Land at Cantuckey in Jefferson County on Salt River."3 The inventory of his estate included horses, cattle, hogs, furniture, tools, dishes and cooking ware, a flax wheel and a loom, a parcel of old books, and one old gun.¹³

     "B1. JOHN NALLE (Martin) was born probably about 1703,^d,1 near Tappahannock in Essex Co., VA,^r and certainly before 1707, since he appears to have been of age by 1728, the date of his father's will.² His parents were Martin and Mary (Aldin) Nalle. In a deed of 21 Apr. 1734 John Nalle conveyed certain tracts of land: ". . . Land that was given by will to the said John Nalle by his father Martin Nalle, deceased. . ." and ". . . conveyed by the said [Richard] Kemp to Mary Nalle mother of the said John Nalle. . . deed dated the fifth of June. . . seventeen hundred and five."3 By virtue of the deed of 1705 from Richard Kemp and Elianor his wife to her daughter “Mary Naule," John Nalle could not have inherited this land had he not been Mary's own son, an "heire of her body."⁴
     "John Nalle died after 1781 and before 19 Aug. 1782, date of probate of his will, in Culpeper Co., Va.⁵ He and his wife are believed to have been buried on John Nalle's Hazel River property about eight miles west of present Culpeper, Va. The land is now owned by Nalle descendants in the Durant family. Few of the native field stone markers remain in the original burying ground, located in a grove of locust trees.⁶
     "John Nalle married probably about 1725 and certainly before 17 Apr. 1734 to Mary Brown — "by the said John Nalle or Mary his wife."³ She was the daughter of Daniel and Elizabeth (Coleman) Brown.⁷ In his will, dated 11 Mar. 1745, Daniel Brown bequeathed property ". . . to my daughter Mary Nalle. . ."John Nalle gave bond for William Brown who presented his father's will for probate.⁸ Birthdate of Mary (Brown) Nalle is unknown, but presumed to be about 1705. She was living in 1780 at the time John Nalle's will was written,5 and her name appeared on the Culpeper Co., Va., tax list of 1783.⁹
     "The records do not indicate with certainty when John Nalle moved to the region that is now Culpeper County. This area Was in Essex County before 1720; became in 1720 part of Spotsylvania County; in 1734, Orange County; and in 1749, Culpeper County. A man could have lived on the same land and been a resident, successively, of all four counties.
     "In 1723 Daniel Brown of South Farnham Parish in Essex Co., Va., (he was to become John Nalle's father-in-law) for 9600 pounds of tobacco bought from Larkin Chew 800 acres of land in St. Georges Parish, Spotsylvania Co., Va., joining Colonel John Robertson.¹⁰ This location is now in the present Culpeper County.¹¹ In 1724 "Daniel and Elizabeth Br own of Spotsylvania County "sold land in Essex County to Joseph Mann of South Farnham Parish.¹²
     "John Nalle may have moved with the Browns to Spotsylvania County, for it was there on 22 Feb. 1725 that he witnessed the will of James Sams, second husband of his mother's sister Katherine.¹³ On 3 Sept. 1727 he is reported to have witnessed a deed in St. Georges Parish in Spotsylvania County.11 In 1728 he and others were ordered to send their tithables to work on the road:
     "On 26 June 1731 John Nalle received from Lieutenant Governor William Gooch, representing the Colony of Virginia, a grant of four hundred acres of "new land" in St. Georges Parish in then Spotsylvania County on the ". . . South Fork of the Goard Vine River in the Goard Vine Fork against the Mouth of Devil's Run. . . to a small white oak. . . between two flat Rock Stones on the Devil's Run. . " ¹⁵ This location is about eight miles west of present Culpeper, Va., on the Culpeper — Sperryville highway. The little stream called Devil's Run has retained its original name; however, the Goard Vine is now known as the Hazel River.ⁱ The two flat rock stones became the site of a mill which was associated with the Nalle family for several generations.¹⁶
     "The original copy of the grant is not extant.¹⁷ However, a copy of the wording, which included repetitious passages-that were part of such grants, has been preserved and contains the following prerogatives:
     "’With all Woods Underwoods Swamps Marshes Lowgrounds Meadows Feedings and his due share of all Veins Mines and Quarries. . . and the Rivers Waters and water courses therein contained Together with the privileges of Hunting Hawking Fishing Fowling and all other profits. . .’
     "In addition to the rent of one shilling yearly per fifty acres "to be paid upon the feast of Saint Michael the Arch-Angel,"¹⁸ within three years, three acres of every fifty were to be cultivated and improved.¹⁹
     "In an order of the Spotsylvania County Court of 5 Apr. 1732, "On petition of Isaac Norman he is discharged from being overseer of the road from the Mountain Tract to Jonas Jenkins at the Great Mountain and John Naul is ordered to serve in his room and all the tithables that serve under said Norman do serve under the said Naul to help clean and keep in repair the said road." On 7 Aug. 1733 "John Nalle is discharged from being Oversee'r of the road from the Mountain Tract. . . " ²⁰ At the Court of 4 Oct. 1732 John Nalle was one of four men designated as qualified to "value the buildings, works, and improvements" made by William Duff on a certain tract of land "in this county."²¹
     "In 1734, following the death of his mother, John Nalle sold to Thomas Burke the Essex Co., Va., property that he had inherited from his parents, "excepting a piece of forty foot square for a burying place where Martin Nalle and Mary his wife lies buried."³
     "On the twenty-first day of May 1734 John Nalle, with James Farguson and Saml. Farguson as his bondsmen, was legally bound as the guardian of his two minor brothers, Richard Nalle²² and Nathan Nalle.²³
     "John Nalle was among those persons who returned to court the inventory of the estate of his mother, Mary Nalle, on 18 June 1734.²⁴ With Thomas Dillard on 16 Mar. 1741 he presented an account of the division of the Estate of Mary Nalle, deceased.²⁵ On 18 May 1742 John Nalle exhibited in Essex County Court the settlement of the guardianship account of his brother Nathan Nalle.²⁶
     "In Orange Co., Va., are recorded other business transactions of John Nalle: a suit with David Kinkead in 1739;²⁷ an order for "setting post" in 1741;²⁸ a "petition for a road" in 1742;²⁹ and a suit with John Newport in 1743.³⁰
     "John Nalle's first recorded purchase of land was 25 Mar. 1747 in then Orange Co., Va., for one hundred acres of land "in the Guord Vine Fork" "on Hazell river" from Edward Dillard and his wife Elizabeth.³¹
     "On 29 June 1748 John Nalle received his second land grant, "a certain tract of waste and ungranted land" in the "County of Orange" containing 495 acres "on both sides of the South Fork of the Goard Vine River." The land was adjoining William Brown and John Brown and extended "to a Hickory standing on a Hillside a little below the Damm between two flat Rocks near the Devil's Ran. ." This grant was signed by the "Right Honorable Thomas Lord Fairfax. . . Proprietor of the Northern Neck of Virginia."³²
     "Culpeper County was formed from Orange County in 1749 and the first County Court was held on 18 May 1749. "There were no towns or villages in the county. The nearest town was Fredericksburg. None of the seven main roads of the colony even touched Culpeper County. Much of the land in the county was yet to be settled. To map this land a surveyor was needed, and so at the third court which was held July 20, 1749, a young man named George Washington presented a commission from the President and Masters of the College of William and Mary appointing him surveyor of Culpeper County".³³
     "The town of Fairfax, established in 1759 by an Act of the General Assembly, was frequently referred to in historical accounts as "Culpeper Court House." Thus in 1870 the name of the town was officially changed to Culpeper.
     "On 26 Jan. 1767 John Nalle and Mary his wife of Bromfield Parish, Culpeper Co., sold to William Brown "five acres and a half of land lying on both sides of Hughes River. . . Including one water grist mill. . " ³⁴
     "John Nalle owned a sizable plantation and several Negroes. From items listed in the inventory of his estate, certain activities of his life are evident. He raised cattle, hogs, sheep, geese, bees, and tobacco; he owned horses and a wagon. He undoubtedly made good use of his carpenters and coopers tools. Perhaps he wore his "spectacles" when reading or writing, and provided entertainment with his "fiddle". His "old gun" and "two old steel traps" may have been indicative of game that was at one time more plentiful.³⁵
     "Although his age precluded his taking an active part in the American Revolution, John Nalle gave his support by furnishing beef and flour. "I do hereby certify that I have received for publick use of Mr. John Nalle Two hundred and Seventy five pounds Beaf. . . this 14th day of October 1781."³⁶ Another receipt for "Beef and Flower" was dated 27 Nov. 1780.

Sources:       He was a witness to From Dolphin & Nall [1978:9-10]:
     "B. MARTIN NALLE is believed to have been born about 1675 - 1680,^{d, 1} probably in England.1 The exact location of his birth and the names of ihis parents have not been found. His death occurred in Essex Co., Va.,^{r, 2} between 9 Apr. and 20 Aug. 1728.³
     "Martin Nalle was married to Mary Aldin4 probably about 1702,^{d, 5} and-certainly by 5 June 1705 when "Mary Naule" was named in an Essex Co., Va., deed.⁶
     "Mary (Aldin) Nalle is believed to have been born in mid - 1681 and baptized 21 Aug. 1681, in Christ Church Parish, Middlesex Co., Va.,⁷ the daughter of Robert and Ellianor (Willis) Aldin.⁸ Although the given name recorded in the Christening record was "Jane", other factors indicate that she may have been the person referred to in later records as "Mary".⁹ No further references to a Jane Aldin were found in the parish records. There was no birth record for a Mary Aldin, although those of her brother John in 1683, and sister Katherine in 1685, were noted. These were the three children named by Ellianor (Willis) Aldin Kemp in a deed in 1714: ". . . in onsideration for the love I have and bear to my son John Alldin. . . two daughters in Essex, Mary Nalle and Catherine Terbett. . ."1⁰ Mary Nalle and Katherine Turbett were named in the will of their step-father, Richard Kemp, in 1714,¹¹ and also in a division of land dated 15 Oct. 1722.¹² Mary (Aldin) Nalle was born certainly before 1685. In his will dated Jan., 1685, Matthew Bentley, step-father of Ellianor (Willis) Aldin, left to his step-granddaughter "Mary Allden. . a young maire."¹³ In 1688 "Mary Allden" was bequeathed "a good cow and calfe" by the will of her uncle, John Willis.¹⁴ She may have been called "Mary" after the death of her grandmother, Mary Willis Bentley. Mary (Aldin) Nalle died in 1734 in Essex Co., Va.
     "Martin Nalle arrived in the Colony of Virginia probably a few months before March 1701/02. He was listed as one of sixty-two persons transported into the Colony by Chicheley Corbin Thacker, for which Mr. Thacker was granted 3080 acres of land lying in Pamunkey Neck in King and Queen County.¹⁵ Martin Nalle most likely came as an indentured servant, working off his indenture, and perhaps earning a tract of "tobacco ground," as his land was later referred to. He was not listed on the 1704 Quit Rent1 6 rolls for the Colony of Virginia, indicating that he was not a property owner at that time.¹⁷
     "Also listed among the sixty-two persons brought to Virginia by C. C. Thacker was "Abigail Nelle." On the patent list the names Nalle and Nelle are distinctly different in the handwriting of the scribe. This may or may not have been correct.¹⁸ Nothing further has been found concerning Abigail Nelle or Nalle, so we do not know if she was a wife or sister to Martin Nalle or unrelated. Later records prove that she was not the mother of his eldest son and presumably his other children.
     "Martin Nalle's name first appeared in the court records of Essex Co., Va., on 2 Feb. 1705/06 when he witnessed a deed from James Boughan to Richard Holt and William Holt. The name was spelled "Nail".¹⁹
     "On 5 June 1705 Martin Nalle's wife, Mary (Aldin) Nalle, was deeded land from her mother and step-father.
     "The 300 acres of land had been conveyed to Richard and Elianor Kemp by Robert and Elizabeth Deputy on 10 July 1703.²⁰
     "The will of Richard Kemp, Mary (Aldin) Nalle's step-father, was presented for probate on 13 May 1714. In his will he bequeathed to her: "I give unto Mary Nail Six hundred pounds of Tobacco."¹¹
     "On 23 Jan. 1715 Martin Nalle was one of four men who returned to Essex County Court an appraisal of the estate of Andrew Hardee.²³ On 21 May 1717 Martin Nalle with Wm. Hudson and Thomas Moore gave bond of five hundred pounds sterling to administer the will of Richard Brazier.²⁴
     "In 1722 the land which had been deeded in 1705 to Mary (Aldin) Nalle and her sister was officially divided.
     "Martin Nalle is believed to have died after 9 Apr. and by 20 Aug. 1728. His will was dated 9 Apr., but no year was noted. The will was proved oh 20 Aug. 1728 in Essex Co., Va., Court.2 The inventory and appraisement of his estate was recorded 19 Nov. 1728.²⁵

From Dolphin & Nall [1978:17-18]
     "The following list of children of Martin and Mary (Aldin) Nalle was compiled from their wills and estate settlements. The exact order is unknown but estimated on the bases noted.
Children:
Bl. John Nalle, born probably about 1703.
*B2. Winifred Nalle was born about 1705²⁷ in Essex Co., Va.r Her date and place of death are unknown. She was named in the 1728 will of her father.² In 1729 she and her husband Thomas Dillard, signed a receipt for their share of Martin Nalle's estate.²⁶ In 1734 at "aged about twenty-nine years" she attested to the nuncupative will of her mother.²⁷ On 15 Mar. 1749 "Thomas Dillard of the County of Culpeper Planter and Winifred his wife" sold a tract of land.³⁴ In Pittsylvania Co., Va., was recorded the will of a Thomas Dillard, dated 4 May 1774 and probated 22 June 1774. He named two sons, James Dillard and Thomas Dillard, but did not refer to a wife, so she was likely deceased by that time.³⁵
*B3. Betty Nalle was born probably about 1706^{d, 36} in Essex Co., Va.^r Her date and place of death are unknown. In 1729 she and her husband, John Ennis, signed a receipt for their share of Martin Nalle's estate.²⁶ John Ennis purchased items at the sale of Mary Nalle's estate.³¹ The will of John Ennis was dated 9 Oct. 1754 in Louisa Co., Va., and was probated 13 May 1762 in .Albermarle Co., Va. In his will he named his two children, "Barbary" and "James," and his wife "Elizabeth". In the probate record, she was referred to as "Betty Ennis".³⁷
B4. Martin Nalle, born probably about 1707.
* B5. .Amey Nalle was born probably about 1709^{d, 38} in Essex Co., Va.^r Her date and place of death are unknown.
In 1728 "Ame Nail" witnessed her father's will.² In 1729 a receipt for part of Martin Nalle's estate signed "Ame Wm. Frazer" was entered into court by Mary Nalle.²⁶ In 1734 in the nuncupative will of Mary Nalle "she give all her wearing cloathes to her daughter .Amey Frazer."²⁷ In 1741 "Amey Fraizier" received the balance of her share of her parents' estate.32 In 1734 in Sootsvlvania Co.. Va.. an administrator's bond was entered in the estate of a "Wm. Frazier." No will was recorded.³⁹
*B6. Agnes Nalle was born probably about 1712^{d, 40} in Essex Co., Va.^r Her date and place of death are unknown. She was named in the nuncupative will of her mother, Mary Nalle in 1734: "she give a feather bed. . . to hir daughter Agness."²⁷ Agnes Nalle was unmarried in 1741.³² It is believed that she may have later married Thomas Burk,⁴¹ who purchased the Martin Nalle property from John Nalle in 1734. The will of a Thomas Burk dated 8 Jan. 1765, was probated 12 Feb. 1768 in Essex Co., Va. He bequeathed to six children, but no wife was mentioned, indicating that she was probably deceased.⁴²
B7. Richard Nalle, born probably about 1716.
B8. Nathan Nalle, born probably about 1721.”

     "B. MARTIN NALLE is believed to have been born about 1675 - 1680,^{d, 1} probably in England.1 The exact location of his birth and the names of ihis parents have not been found. His death occurred in Essex Co., Va.,^{r, 2} between 9 Apr. and 20 Aug. 1728.³
     "Martin Nalle was married to Mary Aldin4 probably about 1702,^{d, 5} and-certainly by 5 June 1705 when "Mary Naule" was named in an Essex Co., Va., deed.⁶
     "Mary (Aldin) Nalle is believed to have been born in mid - 1681 and baptized 21 Aug. 1681, in Christ Church Parish, Middlesex Co., Va.,⁷ the daughter of Robert and Ellianor (Willis) Aldin.⁸ Although the given name recorded in the Christening record was "Jane", other factors indicate that she may have been the person referred to in later records as "Mary".⁹ No further references to a Jane Aldin were found in the parish records. There was no birth record for a Mary Aldin, although those of her brother John in 1683, and sister Katherine in 1685, were noted. These were the three children named by Ellianor (Willis) Aldin Kemp in a deed in 1714: ". . . in onsideration for the love I have and bear to my son John Alldin. . . two daughters in Essex, Mary Nalle and Catherine Terbett. . ."1⁰ Mary Nalle and Katherine Turbett were named in the will of their step-father, Richard Kemp, in 1714,¹¹ and also in a division of land dated 15 Oct. 1722.¹² Mary (Aldin) Nalle was born certainly before 1685. In his will dated Jan., 1685, Matthew Bentley, step-father of Ellianor (Willis) Aldin, left to his step-granddaughter "Mary Allden. . a young maire."¹³ In 1688 "Mary Allden" was bequeathed "a good cow and calfe" by the will of her uncle, John Willis.¹⁴ She may have been called "Mary" after the death of her grandmother, Mary Willis Bentley. Mary (Aldin) Nalle died in 1734 in Essex Co., Va.
     "Martin Nalle arrived in the Colony of Virginia probably a few months before March 1701/02. He was listed as one of sixty-two persons transported into the Colony by Chicheley Corbin Thacker, for which Mr. Thacker was granted 3080 acres of land lying in Pamunkey Neck in King and Queen County.¹⁵ Martin Nalle most likely came as an indentured servant, working off his indenture, and perhaps earning a tract of "tobacco ground," as his land was later referred to. He was not listed on the 1704 Quit Rent1 6 rolls for the Colony of Virginia, indicating that he was not a property owner at that time.¹⁷
     "Also listed among the sixty-two persons brought to Virginia by C. C. Thacker was "Abigail Nelle." On the patent list the names Nalle and Nelle are distinctly different in the handwriting of the scribe. This may or may not have been correct.¹⁸ Nothing further has been found concerning Abigail Nelle or Nalle, so we do not know if she was a wife or sister to Martin Nalle or unrelated. Later records prove that she was not the mother of his eldest son and presumably his other children.
     "Martin Nalle's name first appeared in the court records of Essex Co., Va., on 2 Feb. 1705/06 when he witnessed a deed from James Boughan to Richard Holt and William Holt. The name was spelled "Nail".¹⁹
     "On 5 June 1705 Martin Nalle's wife, Mary (Aldin) Nalle, was deeded land from her mother and step-father.
     "The 300 acres of land had been conveyed to Richard and Elianor Kemp by Robert and Elizabeth Deputy on 10 July 1703.²⁰
     "The will of Richard Kemp, Mary (Aldin) Nalle's step-father, was presented for probate on 13 May 1714. In his will he bequeathed to her: "I give unto Mary Nail Six hundred pounds of Tobacco."¹¹
     "On 23 Jan. 1715 Martin Nalle was one of four men who returned to Essex County Court an appraisal of the estate of Andrew Hardee.²³ On 21 May 1717 Martin Nalle with Wm. Hudson and Thomas Moore gave bond of five hundred pounds sterling to administer the will of Richard Brazier.²⁴
     "In 1722 the land which had been deeded in 1705 to Mary (Aldin) Nalle and her sister was officially divided.
     "Martin Nalle is believed to have died after 9 Apr. and by 20 Aug. 1728. His will was dated 9 Apr., but no year was noted. The will was proved oh 20 Aug. 1728 in Essex Co., Va., Court.2 The inventory and appraisement of his estate was recorded 19 Nov. 1728.²⁵

From Dolphin & Nall [1978:17-18]
     "The following list of children of Martin and Mary (Aldin) Nalle was compiled from their wills and estate settlements. The exact order is unknown but estimated on the bases noted.
Children:
Bl. John Nalle, born probably about 1703.
*B2. Winifred Nalle was born about 1705²⁷ in Essex Co., Va.r Her date and place of death are unknown. She was named in the 1728 will of her father.² In 1729 she and her husband Thomas Dillard, signed a receipt for their share of Martin Nalle's estate.²⁶ In 1734 at "aged about twenty-nine years" she attested to the nuncupative will of her mother.²⁷ On 15 Mar. 1749 "Thomas Dillard of the County of Culpeper Planter and Winifred his wife" sold a tract of land.³⁴ In Pittsylvania Co., Va., was recorded the will of a Thomas Dillard, dated 4 May 1774 and probated 22 June 1774. He named two sons, James Dillard and Thomas Dillard, but did not refer to a wife, so she was likely deceased by that time.³⁵
*B3. Betty Nalle was born probably about 1706^{d, 36} in Essex Co., Va.^r Her date and place of death are unknown. In 1729 she and her husband, John Ennis, signed a receipt for their share of Martin Nalle's estate.²⁶ John Ennis purchased items at the sale of Mary Nalle's estate.³¹ The will of John Ennis was dated 9 Oct. 1754 in Louisa Co., Va., and was probated 13 May 1762 in .Albermarle Co., Va. In his will he named his two children, "Barbary" and "James," and his wife "Elizabeth". In the probate record, she was referred to as "Betty Ennis".³⁷
B4. Martin Nalle, born probably about 1707.
* B5. .Amey Nalle was born probably about 1709^{d, 38} in Essex Co., Va.^r Her date and place of death are unknown.
In 1728 "Ame Nail" witnessed her father's will.² In 1729 a receipt for part of Martin Nalle's estate signed "Ame Wm. Frazer" was entered into court by Mary Nalle.²⁶ In 1734 in the nuncupative will of Mary Nalle "she give all her wearing cloathes to her daughter .Amey Frazer."²⁷ In 1741 "Amey Fraizier" received the balance of her share of her parents' estate.32 In 1734 in Sootsvlvania Co.. Va.. an administrator's bond was entered in the estate of a "Wm. Frazier." No will was recorded.³⁹
*B6. Agnes Nalle was born probably about 1712^{d, 40} in Essex Co., Va.^r Her date and place of death are unknown. She was named in the nuncupative will of her mother, Mary Nalle in 1734: "she give a feather bed. . . to hir daughter Agness."²⁷ Agnes Nalle was unmarried in 1741.³² It is believed that she may have later married Thomas Burk,⁴¹ who purchased the Martin Nalle property from John Nalle in 1734. The will of a Thomas Burk dated 8 Jan. 1765, was probated 12 Feb. 1768 in Essex Co., Va. He bequeathed to six children, but no wife was mentioned, indicating that she was probably deceased.⁴²
B7. Richard Nalle, born probably about 1716.
B8. Nathan Nalle, born probably about 1721.”

"References and Notes:

From Dolphin & Nall [1978:833]:
Appendix A
     Albert Nalle's search for the graveyard "where Martin Nalle and his wife Mary lie buried." From NALLE FAMILY RECORDS by Albert Nalle.
     "That reserved section was a challenge from the discovery that it existed. It required a substantial position in life in 1728 to be buried in a churchyard with a headstone, and only a small percentage of people were so buried. The usual resting place was an attractive grove on the home grounds, the marker, if any, a field stone set on end, entrusting to memory the record as to who lay where. Could the simple graves of Martin and Mary be found after two hundred and thirty years?
     "In February of 1951, it was decided to have a look at the possibilities of answering the challenge. Contemporary records are difficult for the amateur, first, even to read, being in a peculiar old style of writing, and second, to follow, as no metes and bounds nor references to fixed points are given, except in the most general terms such as "on the north side of the said creek". The land, if described at all, is simply defined as that previously bought from so-and-so; very often there is no reference as to how the land was acquired. When various adjoining parcels are sold at different times and subdivision occurs, the difficulty of identification is very great.
     "However, it is clearly set out in the Essex County Court House at Tappahannock (Deeds & C, #20, 1773-4, page 88) that John Nalle sold the ground (all or part?) that he had received from his father Martin to one Thomas Burke, almost certainly the same Thomas Burk who in 1734 bought "1 Trundle Bedsted" for 4 shillings 6 pence from the estate of Mary Nalle. The price was forty-five pounds. The ground was "a certain tract or divident of land one hundred and sixty acres (being part of a tract of three hundred acres) purchased by Mary Nalle of Richard Kemp in 1705 and being that divident of land that was given by will to the said John Nalle by his father Martin Nalle and being part of divident purchased by the said Martin Nalle of James Boughan (excepting a piece forty feet square for a burying place where Martin Nalle and his wife Mary lie buried) . . . " Note the name, Boughan.
     "A search in the record room with the friendly aid of a professional genealogist present failed to show when or to whom Burke had sold the land, although the record must be there somewhere. The Clerk of the Court said the man most likely to recognize the tract from the description would be the State Surveyor. There being no answer to his telephone, the Clerk suggested I ask someone in the street or at the drug store if they had seen him. Tappahannock is the nice sort of place where everyone is willing to drop what he is doing, if anything, to help a stranger.
     "The drug store had had the Surveyor for lunch; he had left with his wife and the drug store thought he was probably at home by now. He was, - sitting in his car at his door, enjoying the sunshine. After studying the original deed wording of Boughan to Nalle and the government map I had with me, the Surveyor made his pronouncement. The "main road that leadeth from Piscataway Ferry to the old mill" would now be unrecognizable to Martin Nalle as U.S. 360 and 17 to Richmond. Just south of Henley Fork (see map) the road crosses in a ravine the old mill pond, now filled in and grown up in trees but recognizable as such. The mill has gone, it was Croxton's Mill and has been replaced by a newer one of the same name nearer town. "Gregory's Swamp" the Surveyor did not know, which is not surprising, as it was "formerly" known as that in 1713. But he gave his opinion that the reference was to a draw which runs southward about a mile starting just west of "Bray's", and he stated there was an old place out there, with which he was however, not familiar.
     "The trail a little warmer, I drove about a half mile south of Bray's on a dirt track to its end at a very old house. A mission such as this takes people completely unawares and requires a phenomonal amount of explaining. No, said Mr. Balderson, the owner, no one had been buried here for some ten years or more. Some of the Croxtons, now, they had been dug up and moved into the churchyard in Tappahannock. But, I said, I am talking about two hundred and twenty five years ago. Well, he was not so sure about that, what was the name again? Couldn't be, he had been here some forty years himself. Yes, it was an old house, the new end was built in the 1830's; they had torn down the old end some years ago. But there was originally an older house still, the brick chimney was still used in connection with a tool house. They tore down the old house many years ago to get the 24" boards out of it. No one knew when that house was built.
     "Yes, there was an old burying ground a few yard away, did I want to see it? I did. There were three modern headstones in it, a Balderson, someone else, and a Boughan. (The State Surveyor, by the way, said Boughan was pronounced "bawn," - "You know, like I was bawn on the 2nd of March") I paced off the size of the lot; it seemed but a few feet over forty each way. Yes, said Mr. Balderson, he understood people had always been buried there, the old ones without mark of any sort. The lot lay northwest of the house, as mentioned in some later deeds. "
     "It looked as if the challenge had been answered. The fill marking the old ferry over the Piscataway is still visible just upstream from the highway U. S. 17 bridge. If, a mile or so north of there, the old road had wound up a slight hill to Bray's, it would have passed very close to the property. There is a dirt track which seems to do just that and may well have been the old road.
     "Later, an attempt was made at the Court House to run Mr. Balderson's title backwards to John "Nalle. The continuity stopped with one Pitman Clements in 1795. Since Burke bought the ground in 1734, there is an apparently unbridgeable gap of sixty-one years, less the unknown tenure of Burke."

     "On 23 Jan. 1715 Martin Nalle was one of four men who returned to Essex County Court an appraisal of the estate of Andrew Hardee.²³ On 21 May 1717 Martin Nalle with Wm. Hudson and Thomas Moore gave bond of five hundred pounds sterling to administer the will of Richard Brazier.²⁴
     "In 1722 the land which had been deeded in 1705 to Mary (Aldin) Nalle and her sister was officially divided.
     "Martin Nalle is believed to have died after 9 Apr. and by 20 Aug. 1728. His will was dated 9 Apr., but no year was noted. The will was proved oh 20 Aug. 1728 in Essex Co., Va., Court.2 The inventory and appraisement of his estate was recorded 19 Nov. 1728.²⁵
