Deed Abstracts of King George County, Virginia (1735-1752), Ruth and Sam
Sparacio, 1987 p. 94)
Virginia Genealogical Society Quarterly, Vol 10, No.3, 1972, pp. 66-68
"Some Genealogical Observations" by Sanford King. Abstracted as follows:
William Woffendall died testate in 1747 in King George County. He married (1)
Jane, widow of Charles Tyler, (2) Tabitha [------] who died testate in 1790
in King George County. Tabitha married (2) Meredith Payne and (3) George
Strother. The will of William Woffendall was recorded in the lost King George County
Will Book 1. The inventory of his estate has been torn from King George
County Deed Book 6. King George County Order Book #5-A, p. 58, names the residual
legatees as Richard Drake, Mary Sims, Sarah Claytor, Margaret Dodd, Henry
Drake, and Benjamin Drake. In 1791, a lawsuit was brought by certain plaintiffs
against George Strother executor of his mother Tabitha [-----] Woffendall Payne
Strother. These plaintiffs were Franklin Simms and Suckey his wife, Henry
Simms, Mary Dunton, Nancy Vents, Sarah Tiller, Richard Drake, Thomas Bettisworth
and Eleanor his wife, George, Sarah, Larenzo, Alexander, Elizabeth and Polly
Simms by Elizabeth Simms, their next friend; Benjamin Drake, John Drake, and
James Drake.
Further court records allow the descendants of the residual legatees to be
determined, including:
Richard Drake's heirs: Franklin Sims and his wife Suke; Richard Drake, Thomas
Bettisworth and his wife Elinor, Jane Drake, daughter of Thomas Drake, deced.
Mary Sims's heirs and representatives: Franklin Sims, Henry Sims, Mary
Dunton, John Vince and Nancy, his wife, John Sims his heirs, viz. George, Sarah,
Loringoe, Alexander, James, Elizabeth and Polly Sims.
Sarah Claytor's heirs and representatives: Daniel Tiller and his wife Sarah,
Thomas Tiller and his wife Molley, William Claytor's daughters Nancy and Sarah
Claytor
Margaret Dodd's heirs and representatives.
Henry Drake's heirs and representatives: James Drake, Richard Drake's son,
John Easton for his wife Eliza.
Benjamin Drake (the only residual heir still alive in 1791)In the delineation
of further generations of the family, we shall have recourse to these
documents.There is no direct documentation of any children of Richard Drake and Anne
Woffendale, but a number of related Drakes appear later in the records who
could be placed as their descendants: 2. i. (possible) Thomas2 Drake, born Abt.
1665; died Aft. 1681.A Thomas Drake was claimed as a headright for transport to
Virginia in April, 1681 at the expense of Henry Turner in exchange for land
in Varina Parish, Henrico County, Va. (Chapman, Cavaliers and Pioneers, Vol. 2,
p. 220) This Thomas Drake may also be unrelated to this family. He apparently
does not appear later in the records, and so perhaps died young. + 3. ii.
Henry Drake, born Abt. 1665; died Bet. 1722 - 1723 in King George County.+ 4.
iii. John Drake, born Abt. 1670; died Bef. 1743. 5. iv. (possible) William Drake,
born Abt. 1675.This posited William Drake does not appear in the records of
the Northern Neck. He is first found in the records of Edgecombe County, North
Carolina. His apparent son William came to Edgefield County, South Carolina.
DNA from their descendants matches that of this family, so he may be related,
and if so, might be tentatively placed here based on chronology and onomastics.
Generation No. 2
Barton/Bartholomew Clayton
Married: ? Walker
Children:
- Ann Clayton (1790 - 1873); m. Philip Ullman
- Sara Clayton
- (male) Clayton
Bible of Uriah Ullman -
"Ullman side. My Great Grandfather Ullman came from Germany. Great
Grandmother Ullman's father Barton Bartholomew Clayton came from England
& settled in Phila. & married a Miss Walker. 3 children from issue, Ann,
Sara, Boy. Ann Married Philip Ullman who came from Germany."
Would anyone have any information on Joseph Clayton born May 26, 1806
possibly VA, who married July 15,1828 , Ruth Roberts, daughter of Richard And
Elizabeth Doty Roberts, in Washington or Scott County, VA ? He died Nov 29,1869
in Greenfield IN. There also seems to be some ties to MO, where a son, James
Clayton moved after the Civil War.
Thanks!
