• Notes

  Goochland Co VA Colonial Wills, 1736-1742; Benjamin B. Weisiger III. 1984. p.29/217 Deed 18 Jun 1739. John Cobbs of St. James Parish, Goochland, to Thomas Poor Sr. of St. Martins Parish, Hanover Co for 50£, 400 acres as by patent 21 Nov 1734, on "north side of James River, bounded by Jonas Lawson". This tract had a history of several owners. I found the patent with this property description in VA patent book, 15, p.372. It was first granted 16 Jun 1727, when it still lay in Henrico Co, to Thomas Tindall who then sold it to Dudley Digges. It was described as 400 acres, the "north side of the James River, bounded by Jonas Lawson". Tindall & Digges failed to cultivate or make improvements; Abraham Nicholas made request for the grant but then relinquished it to John Nash of Henrico Co on 21 Nov 1734. I believe Nash likely sold it to John Cobbs. Cobbs did have other land in the area - his grant dated 25 May 1734, also for 400 acres, description was on the east branches of the Byrd, adj Thomas Massie, Dec'd, William Walton, and William Swift, and is record in Book 15, p.227. That this land is all in the same area is a grant to Arthur Hopkins [who was also a neighbor to Anthony Haden on the Little Byrd]. Dated 21 Nov 1734, Hopkins received 200 acres on the upper side of the Little Byrd, "north side of the James River adjacent Jonas Lawson", Robert Gorsley, George Payne & Thomas Murrell, Book 15, p.358 The gift to Thomas Jr. could have been half of the above tract: Goochland DB 4, p.434 9 Oct 1744 Thomas Poor, Senr of Hanover County for love & natural affection to his loving son Thomas Poor Junr and Elizabeth his wife of Goochland. 200 acres on North side of James ...borders his own land. Susannah, his wife, was examined and relinquished her right of Dower. Goochland DB 5, p.162 19 Aug 1746 John Bibey of Albemarle sold to Thomas Poore of Hanover, 200 acres in Goochland; John Curd's line on North side Castle Branch; Nicholas Perkins line... Thomas Poor [Junr] was one of the witnesses. ----------------------------- Old note explaining where the bad date for the birth of Thomas Poor originated. 1)Poor Family History (see Sources tab) Thomas Poor & Susannah Estes To: Index Contact: Joe Crouch
