We find a Patent bearing date the fifteenth day of September 1651 by which two hundred acres of Land are granted unto THOMAS BLAGG; We find that RICHARD BROWN and THOMAS TYRWHIT were afterwards, to wit, the eighth day of March 1668, seised in fee of the said premises. We find a Deed bearing date the said Eighth day of March 1668 purporting to be a division or partition of the said two hundred acres of land between the said BROWN and TYRWHIT. We find a Deed bearing date the ninth day of February 1697 by which one hundred acres of land, part of the said two hundred acres of Land are granted unto LEWIS MARKHAM as escheated from the said THOMAS TYRWHIT, that the said LEWIS MARKHAM entered into the said Land & was thereof seised in fee died so seised, that after the death of the said LEWIS MARKHAM. WILLIAM MARKHAM as Son & heir of the said LEWIS entered into the said One hundred acres of Land & was thereof seised and being so seised by Deeds of Lease and Release bearing date the nineteenth and twentieth days of April 1732 granted & conveyed the said one hundred acres of land unto JOHN PRICE, the Plt., at the request of the Plt. we began to survey the said one hundred acres of land begining ((the bounds and distances are repeated as above).
Then JOHN WILLIAMS aged sixty four years being sworn deposed that near the aforesaid Stake there formerly stood a white Oak which forty years ago was reported among the neighbours to be the begining of the dividing line between the lands now in the possession of the Plt. and one BROWN and has after heard LEWIS MARKHAM & JOHN BROWN say so and never heard the same was contested; That about twenty one years ago, he was one of the Chain Carriers at a Survey made by Mr. THOMPSON, that he begun at the aforesaid Stake and run to the aforesaid Stump by the West side or near the same and run in the same courses (the remainder of this line is blurred on the film) to the aforesaid Oak by BLAGGs Beaverdams, the same course we now run that MRS. MARKHAM, then the Widow of LEWIS MARKHAM, the said & JOHN BROWN were both present at the said Survey but that Mr. CULLOM under whom the Deft. claims or any for him was not to the Deponts. knowledge that he never knew or heard of any other survey made by Mr. MARKHAM or his Widow than that made by THOMPSON, That he once saw the aforesaid lines run at the Plts. request processioned and has heard they have been twice processioned besides;
JAMES LEGG aged forty seven years being sworn deposed that he was one of the Chain Carriers of the aforesaid Survey made by Mr. THOMPSON who run the same courses and never heard of any other Survey mde by Mr. MARKHAM or his Wife.
FRANCIS JAMES aged fifty six years being sworn deposed that about eighteen years ago he was a processioner and processioned the lines now run at the Plts. request from the Stake to the Stump by the road as the lines of JOHN BROWN's land
JOHN STEELE aged sixty one years being sworn deposed that above twenty years ago at the request of JOHN BROWN he with one WILLIAM BROWN, measured with a drum line for the length of JOHN BROWN's dividing line, he cannot remember whether the line was run straight or not but no compass was made use of, that they marked the said line they measured but there were no marked trees there before.
Then the Defendant produced to us a Copy of a Survey made by Mr. THOMPSON for Mr. MARKHAM bearing date the sixth day of March 1713, which the Plt. objected and JOHN STEEL deposed that a place now the mouth of the said Branch was called ARRINGTONS LANDING forty years ago and that one ARRINGTON was in possession of the Defts. Land
FRANCIS JAMES deposed that he has known the aforesaid Landing thirty years, that during all that time it has been called ARRINGTONS LANDING and is reputed to be his land; That the aforesaid Swamp or Branch near the said Landing has been reputed the division of the lands now in possession of the Plt. and of that now in possession of the Defendant near forty years; that he never knew or heard LEWIS MARKHAM claimed any further then the said Branch; that about twenty years ago the Widow of the said MARKHAM pretended to take up some vast land but the same was generally reputed among the neighbours to belong to MARK CULLOM, JOHN FINCH aged sixty two years being sworn deposed that he has known the land in the Defendants possession over forty years; that when he first know it the same belonging to one ARRINGTON, afterwards to one LAMBEY, and after that to MARK CULLOM of whom the Defendant purchased, that he never knew or heard that LEWIS MARKHAM claimed any further then the Branch; that about ten or twelve years ago JOHN BROWN told him that Branch was the division between MARKHAMs & COLLOMs Land; And if upon the whole matter the Law is for the Plt. we find for him one shilling damage if not we find for the Defendant; Witness our hands and seals the two & twentieth day of June 1734

The following information may be found in the Family History Library in Salt Lake City Utah: book 975.526/R2s, Stafford County Virginia Court Records 1680, page 1; NOTE: "Virginia by his Excellency. To all to whom these presents shall come Greeting. Whereas for ye more due administration of Justice in this Countrey, and ye greater ease of ye people in obtaining ye same, his Royall Majestie Kinge Charles ye first of ever blessed memory was peased by his instructions directed to ye Honble Governor and Councell of State requiring them hereto appoint place convenient for Inferior Courts of Justice and Commissioners for the same. In obedience whereunto itt was ordered by ye Governor and Councell ye Twenty eight of June 1642, that Commissioners should be appointed in every County for ye keepinge monthly Courts which hath been ever since continued and confirmed by divers Acts of Assembly; KNOW YE that I THOMAS CULPEPER, Baron of Thoresway, his Majesties Leiut. and Governor Genll of Virginia, have assigned you Colo. GEORGE MASON, Majr. ANDREW GILSON, Mr. JAMES ASHTON, Capt. ROBERT MASSEY, Mr. MALACHY PEALE, Mr. VINCENT YOUNGE, Dr. WILLM BANCKS, Mr. ANTHONY BUCKNER, Mr. EDWD THOMASON, Capt. MARTIN SCARLETT, Mr. THOMAS GRIGG, Mr. MATHEW THOMASON jointly and severally and every one of you, Justices to bee ye peace for ye County of Stafford, and that you cause to bee kept all Ordinances and Acts of Assembly sett forth for ye conservation of ye peace; And ye good will and government of ye people in all and singular their articles in ye said County accordinge to ye force forme and effect of ye same...." From this we learn that the Thomas Culpeper, Governor of Virginia under King Charles of England, made Mr. VINCENT YOUNG one of the Justices of the Peace in Stafford County Virginia. Mr. Young’s descendants lived in the area for several generations. There is a very good possibility that one of them was the William Young who married Patience Sinclair in the Overwharton Parish church of Stafford County on 23 Jul 1744 (Overwharton Parish Register, FHL book 975.526/K2k, page 193).

Vincent was of an aristocratic family of Youngs (or Younges) who were neighbors of Lord Fairfax in the county of Kent. HIS FATHER, NAMED VINCENT YOUNGE, was christened 14 Dec 1600 in Womenswold, Kent England, son of William Younge (christening record, FHL film 1235368). Vincent Young Jr., born about 1630, was able to adapt to the New World and his family was well established by 7 Jul 1664 when he was sworn in as one of the two Churchwardens of Potomac Parish, which then included the entire area of the future county (Stafford County court abstracts, FHL book 975.526 P2sr, volume 1, page 4 section 20). The churchwardens were lay parish officers of the Church of England or Anglican Communion, with responsibilities in parish administration. The other Churchwarden that served with him was William Green. They were men of distinguishment and trust in the parish. Mr Young was also a man of some means because on 6 Jun 1665, he was found in court to be "indebted to Mr Francis Hales, 4000 pounds tobacco in goods" (Stafford Co court abstracts, FHL book 975.526 P2sr, vol 1, section 135). From the begining, the currency of exchange in Virginia was pounds of tobacco. The Court ordered that the debt be paid. Mr Younge presented proof in the following court on 30 Aug 1665, that he had already... "tendered goods to the said Hales as by the depositions doth appear the Court adjudge Mr Hales to receave them and that the tender was lawful... Captain (Giles) BRENT acted as attorney for Mr Young" (Stafford County court astracts, 30 Aug 1665, FHL book 975.526 P2sr, vol 1, section 160) But Mr Hales was not satisfied "and he doth appeale to the 6th day of the next General Court to be held... at James Citty" (Jamestown). The appeal was rejected.

Vincent Younge was well enough off that he was able to pay the expenses to import indentured servants from England. The planters of Virginia during the 1600’s depended almost entirely upon these people to help with the farmwork. In the early days, the indentured servants were common people who signed a contract binding them to work for a prescribed length of time to repay their importer for bringing them out of England and their board and lodging. Usually this was for 5, 6, 7, or some prescribed length of time. They taught school, wove cloth, painted, carpentered, mended shoes, made clothes, even kept books and kept store for their masters. Indentured servants were generally treated well but held legally bound. Later English officials began to sell convicts as indentured servants, thereby making a profit and getting rid of them at the same time. George Washington’s school teacher in Stafford, Master Hobby at Falmouth was a former criminal. However many became a source of trouble, being petty pilferers, thieves, itinerant workers, or worse. Stafford County court abstracts, 9 Oct 1665, FHL book 975.526 P2sr, vol 1, section 195: "Whereas Mr Vincent Young had a servant named Richard Collings who unlawfully absented himself from his masters service by running away in the time of the crop and that the said hath proved an unsufferable damage, the Court doth therefore order that the said servant Richard Collings serve his said master after expiration of his time by indenture one whole year and that Mr Young shall pay the charges

Land was given to planters that would arrange to import new colonists from England. Fifty acres of land was granted per person, and on 16 Jul 1654 the governor of Virginia Sir Richard Bennett, granted 1200 acres of land to John Williams and his partner Stephen Norman in Northumberland County "at the head of upper Machotix River for the transportation of 24 persons from England". When Stephen Norman died without heirs, his land share "was found escheated to his Majesties by an inquisition under ye hande of Colonel Peter Ashton deputy escheater for said County, and a jury sworne for that purpose, dated 9th day September 1668" (Stafford Co Virginia Court Abstracts, FHL book 975.526 R2s, vol 1). To escheate meant that the land was returned to the ownership of the government. John Williams Sr had a son named John Williams Jr who married Anne Young, the daughter of Vincent and Elizabeth Younge.

In the fall of 1665, Vincent Younge provided security and became administrator of the deceased Stephen Norman’s estate. Stafford Court abstracts, 9 Oct 1665, FHL book 975.526 P2sr, vol 1, section 198 "Mr John Wells and Mr Henry Pictoe this day enter into security with Mr Vincent Young for the performance of a Will made by Stephen Norman". The administrators of a Will were legally responsible to make an inventory of the estate and to use the assets to pay any outstanding debts of the deceased. "Mr Vincent Young as administrator of Stephen Norman did this day before Mr Donding and Mr Osburne acknowledge judgment to Lt Col John Washington for 531 lbs of tobacco etc... Mr Vincent Young as administrator of Stephen Norman did this day before Col Dodman and Lt Col Meese acknowledge judgment to Mr William Stork for 400 lbs of tobacco and caske forthwith."

In Court of 11 Feb 1666, John Williams and Vincent Young gave evidence of outstanding debts owed them by a deceased neighbor, and were awarded judgments against John Rolt who was executor of the estate. Stafford County court abstracts, FHL book 975.526 P2sr, vol 1, sections 377-8: "Whereas John Williams did put in his information to this Court against John Mathews alias Matoone for unlawfully killing a hogg belonging to the said Williams, he having proved the same by two depositions, the Court doth order that the said Williams have judgment against the estate of the said Mathews for 2000 lbs of tobacco, according to Act with charges of Court forthwith else execution. Whereas it doth appear to this Court that John Mathews alias Matoone stands indebted to John Williams 300 lbs of tobacco and a barril of Indian corn, the Court doth order that the said Williams have judgment against the estate of the said Mathews for the said debt with charges of Court forthwith else executed. Whereas Mr Vincent Young made oath that John Mathews stands indebted to him 400 lbs of tobacco and half a barrel of corn, as by the account on record may appear, the Court doth therefore order that John Rolt processor of the estate of the said Mathews, pay to the said Vincent Young the said debt with charges of Court forthwith else executed."

In the same court of 11 Feb 1666, Vincent Young appeared as administrator of Stephen Norman’s Will to "confess judgment to Mr Francis hales administrator of John Giles for 316 lbs of tobacco and cask, before Col John Dodman and Lt Col Henry Mees to be paid forthwith... Then after making oath that he had paid the full quantity of tobacco out of the estate of Stephen Norman deceased, as by the inventory, it was appraised sixty six lbs of tobacco excepted, the Court doth order that a Quietus Est be granted to the said Young..." That meant he was officially released of his administrative responsibilities as pertaining to Mr Norman’s Will (Stafford Co court abstracts, FHL book 975.526 P2sr, vol 1 section 374 & 397). In the same court, he was released as Churchwarden and nominated as one of the Vestryman for the Stafford Parish. The Vestry was a body of church members that administered the secular affairs of the parish. "The Court doth order the persons hereafter nominated be of the Vestry and they meete on the 14 Instant at the Courthouse. Captain John Alexander, Mr Richard Fossaker, Mr Richard Heabeard, Mr John Heabeard, Mr William Heaberd, Mr Vincent Young, William Greene, Thomas Humphrey, Thomas Grigg. The Court doth order that Mr Robert Osborne and John Withers be churchwardens and sworne the next Court. The Court is adjourned till the first Wednesday in Aprill.”

Possible proof that Vincent’s wife’s surname was ROWLAND:

Vincent Younge had given his brother-in-law Vincent ROWLAND 100 acres on the northeast side of his plantation in his Will. William Young also made provision in his will for Vincent Rowland’s son David. Vincent Rowland died in 1701 and an inventory of his estate included money owed him from ‘Mr’ Young. It is not certain which Mr Young this was.

In Obedience to an Order of Westmorland County Court bearing date the 29th a day of May last past made in a suit there depending between JOHN PRICE, Plt. and PETER BASHAW, Deft., we the Subscribers being a Jury summoned by the Sheriff & sworn before JAMES HORE, Gent., and in Company with JAMES THOMAS, Surveyor of the said County, proceeded to Survy and lay out the lands in difference accoring to the said Order of Court and do report as follows. We find a Patent bearing date the fifteenth day of September 1651 by which two hundred acres of Land are granted unto THOMAS BLAGG; We find that RICHARD BROWN and THOMAS TYRWHIT were afterwards, to wit, the eighth day of March 1668, seised in fee of the said premises. We find a Deed bearing date the said Eighth day of March 1668 purporting to be a division or partition of the said two hundred acres of land between the said BROWN and TYRWHIT. We find a Deed bearing date the ninth day of February 1697 by which one hundred acres of land, part of the said two hundred acres of Land are granted unto LEWIS MARKHAM as escheated from the said THOMAS TYRWHIT, that the said LEWIS MARKHAM entered into the said Land & was thereof seised in fee died so seised, that after the death of the said LEWIS MARKHAM.

Then JOHN WILLIAMS aged sixty four years being sworn deposed that near the aforesaid Stake there formerly stood a white Oak which forty years ago was reported among the neighbours to be the begining of the dividing line between the lands now in the possession of the Plt. and one BROWN and has after heard LEWIS MARKHAM & JOHN BROWN say so and never heard the same was contested; That about twenty one years ago, he was one of the Chain Carriers at a Survey made by Mr. THOMPSON, that he begun at the aforesaid Stake and run to the aforesaid Stump by the West side or near the same and run in the same courses (the remainder of this line is blurred on the film) to the aforesaid Oak by BLAGGs Beaverdams, the same course we now run that MRS. MARKHAM, then the Widow of LEWIS MARKHAM, the said & JOHN BROWN were both present at the said Survey but that Mr. CULLOM under whom the Deft. claims or any for him was not to the Deponts. knowledge that he never knew or heard of any other survey made by Mr. MARKHAM or his Widow than that made by THOMPSON, That he once saw the aforesaid lines run at the Plts. request processioned and has heard they have been twice processioned besides;
JAMES LEGG aged forty seven years being sworn deposed that he was one of the Chain Carriers of the aforesaid Survey made by Mr. THOMPSON who run the same courses and never heard of any other Survey mde by Mr. MARKHAM or his Wife.
FRANCIS JAMES aged fifty six years being sworn deposed that about eighteen years ago he was a processioner and processioned the lines now run at the Plts. request from the Stake to the Stump by the road as the lines of JOHN BROWN's land
JOHN STEELE aged sixty one years being sworn deposed that above twenty years ago at the request of JOHN BROWN he with one WILLIAM BROWN, measured with a drum line for the length of JOHN BROWN's dividing line, he cannot remember whether the line was run straight or not but no compass was made use of, that they marked the said line they measured but there were no marked trees there before.
Then the Defendant produced to us a Copy of a Survey made by Mr. THOMPSON for Mr. MARKHAM bearing date the sixth day of March 1713, which the Plt. objected and JOHN STEEL deposed that a place now the mouth of the said Branch was called ARRINGTONS LANDING forty years ago and that one ARRINGTON was in possession of the Defts. Land
FRANCIS JAMES deposed that he has known the aforesaid Landing thirty years, that during all that time it has been called ARRINGTONS LANDING and is reputed to be his land; That the aforesaid Swamp or Branch near the said Landing has been reputed the division of the lands now in possession of the Plt. and of that now in possession of the Defendant near forty years; that he never knew or heard LEWIS MARKHAM claimed any further then the said Branch; that about twenty years ago the Widow of the said MARKHAM pretended to take up some vast land but the same was generally reputed among the neighbours to belong to MARK CULLOM, JOHN FINCH aged sixty two years being sworn deposed that he has known the land in the Defendants possession over forty years; that when he first know it the same belonging to one ARRINGTON, afterwards to one LAMBEY, and after that to MARK CULLOM of whom the Defendant purchased, that he never knew or heard that LEWIS MARKHAM claimed any further then the Branch; that about ten or twelve years ago JOHN BROWN told him that Branch was the division between MARKHAMs & COLLOMs Land; And if upon the whole matter the Law is for the Plt. we find for him one shilling damage if not we find for the Defendant; Witness our hands and seals the two & twentieth day of June 1734

12 CAPT. JOHN MARSHALL of the "Forest," was born in Westmoreland County, Virginia., about the year 1700; d. April, 1752, = about 1722, ELIZABETH MARKHAM, b. perhaps in Alexandria, Virginia., about 1704, d. in Fauquier Co, 1775. Mr. Marshall was a farmer, possessed of a plantation of 1,200 acres on Appomattox (called Mattox) Creek, in Washington Parish, Westmoreland County, Virginia. He was a militia captain, and a man of good reputation and influence in his neighborhood. The records of conveyances in Westmoreland County show that in 1728, William Marshall, of King & Queen County, Virginia., conveyed to John Marshall, of Westmoreland County, 1,200 acres on Appomattox Creek, Washington Parish. This may have been the estate known as "The Forest," and may have been devised to William, the oldest son, by his father Thomas (11), as shown by his will. If so, we ascertain that William, the father of Col. William, of Mecklenburg County, was a resident of King and Queen County in 1728.

===mm note: :Paxton has the Henrico & Westmoreland families mixed together.

Other records may be here referred to:
1, Louis Markham died in Washington Parish in 1713, and his estate was divided among eight children;
2, In 1732 William Markham, of Hamilton Parish, Prince William County, conveys 126 acres on Mattox Creek, to John Price;
3, In 1744, John Smith, jr., and Patience, his wife, sell to John Smith, sr., of Westmoreland County, 160 acres adjoining John Marshall;
4, In 1752, Elizabeth Marshall conveys, by deed of gift, to Thomas Marshall (16), 100 acres of the homestead (The Forest) granted her by the will of her husband;
5, Mrs. Marshall, is referred to as "Lizzie Markham, of Curls Neck, daughter of John Markham."

HORNBUCKLE FAMILY ASSOCIATION

For the first nineteen years that Henry spent in Virginia, we know nothing about his whereabouts. Perhaps he was an indentured servant working off the cost of his passage or serving a criminal sentence, as did many of the early emigrants to Virginia during this period. This is the most likely scenario based the fact that in 1693 at the age of forty Henry Hornbuckle resurfaced in Virginia married to Eleanor Hornbuckle (possibly, Eleanor Hall, who came over from England to the New World in 1673). Henry’s marriage and job status is evidenced by Thomas Tyrwhitt's estate settlement in which it is noted that Henry Hornbuckle owed money or goods to one Thomas Tyrwhitt. Eleanor Hornbuckle, along with six other persons, made a deposition in the Westmoreland county court on November 29, 1693 on behalf of Lewis Markham (Administrator of Mr. Tyrwhitt’s estate) "To prove his affinity to Thomas Tyrwhitt."

A year later on February 29, 1694, Henry is again mentioned in legal documents. The Westmoreland County court ordered "Lawrence Washington, Gent. Sheriff of this county, failing to have Henry Hornbuckle at this court to answer suit of Lewis Markham, Administrator of Thomas Tyrwhitt's estate, ordered that unless Washington have Hornbuckle at the next court, judgment to pass against the sheriff for what appears to be due from Hornbuckle." The problem was resolved by April 25, 1694 when the court dismissed Markham's suit against Hornbuckle. An additional legal action was brought by John Worden Medicus, against Henry Hornbuckle for 500 pounds of tobacco. The defendant not appearing and John Andrews being returned security, upon motion of Danll McCarty, attorney per plaintiff, Judgment is granted against the security.

A tavern and a courthouse are inseparable neighbors. The Brodhurst tavern in Cople Parish did not as such long survive the removal, about six years later, to a new courthouse miles away, of the sessions of the Westmoreland Court. After the death of Colonel Washington, the interests, if any, of his deceased second wife's son, Walter Brodhurst, Jr., in the tavern and plantation are not of record, unless he held them at his death in Lilleshall, England, in 1707, and were the property referred to years later by his relative, Thomas Addenbrooke, as stated in the letters to General George Washington. But Lewis Markham, apparently not renewing his lease in 1672, invested in an estate further up the Potomac, in Washington Parish. John Washington's last purchase of land was from Markham:

(*) It is evident that these buildings were erected privately and leased or rented to the county. Walter Brodhurst built the prison, at least, as he was High Sheriff in 1652, before Westmoreland was set off as a county separate from Northumberland. The social status of Brodhurst and the location of his home are further indicated by his bill of sale to Mr. John Hiller, February 20, 1653, in which he describes himself as "I, Walter Brodhurst of the county of Westmerland in ye Colony of Virginia, Gent."; and a letter addressed to him viz. "ffor her much respected friend Mr Walter Brodhurst at his house at Nominy in Potomacke river, These," written by Mrs. Anna Bernard and beginning "Noble Sr," is recorded in Westmoreland Deeds, Wills & Patents, 1653-1659.
