HJST. survey Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2012 with funding from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign http://archive.org/details/englishduplicateOOdesc English Duplicates of Lost Virginia Records compiled by Louis des Cognets, Jr. © 1958, Louis des Cognets, Jr. P.O. Box 163 Princeton, New Jersey This book is dedicated to my grandmother ANNA RUSSELL des COGNETS in memory of the many years she spent writing two genealogies about her Virginia ancestors \ i FOREWORD This book was compiled from material found in the Public Record Office during the summer of 1957. Original reports sent to the Colonial Office from Virginia were first microfilmed, and then transcribed for publication. Some of the penmanship of the early part of the 18th Century was like copper plate, but some was very hard to decipher, and where the same name was often spelled in two different ways on the same page, the task was all the more difficult. May the various lists of pioneer Virginians contained herein aid both genealogists, students of colonial history, and those who make a study of the evolution of names. In this event a part of my debt to other abstracters and compilers will have been paid. Thanks are due the Staff at the Public Record Office for many heavy volumes carried to my desk, and for friendly assistance. Mrs. William Dabney Duke furnished valuable advice based upon her considerable experience in Virginia research. Mrs .Olive Sheridan being acquainted with old English names was especially suited to the secretarial duties she faithfully performed. -

The Chesapeake Bay Pilots
THE CHESAPEAKE BAY PILOTS By M. V. BREWINGTON OF all the maritime community—the masters, mates, super- cargoes, and tradesmen—the most respected members have always been the pilots. To that group of men is entrusted the vessels, cargoes, and the lives of passengers and crews while trav- ersing the most dangerous parts of any voyage, the entry and departure from port. In the pilot's mind's eye there must be an accurate, detailed picture of something no one has ever actually seen: the bottom of the waterway. And since the bottom is always in motion and shifting, the picture is continuously changing, some- thing a chart can never be. More, the pilots must be consummate seamen, able to handle any vessel, large or small, quick or clumsy, propelled by sail or power. In colonies like Virginia and Maryland where it could be truly said every inhabitant " is apparelled from head to foot in [English} manufactures . scarcely drinks, sits, moves, labours, or recreates himself without contributing to the emolument of the mother country " 1 the men who brought in the vessels had most of the well-being of the colonies in their hands. On the Chesa- peake, the pilot of the early days of the Virginia settlement had no easy task: There had not been a single hydrographic survey of the waters from the Capes to Jamestown nor was there a lighthouse or even a buoy to mark the shoals in Hampton Roads or the James. And after the Maryland colony was established there were miles of unknown on the two longest tidal pilot's runs in the world, with a maze of bars athwart the course of a vessel bound up the Bay or up the Potomac. -
The Thomas Chew Family of Orange County and the Colonial Virginia Recessional
Courses of Empire: The Thomas Chew Family of Orange County and the Colonial Virginia Recessional by Frederick Madison Smith, Secretary, NSMFD Despite the burgeoning prosperity of his young family in the emerging Virginia Piedmont, Ambrose Madison’s murder in the summer of 1732 left his widow Frances Tayl or Madison and his children in a somewhat precarious position legally and financially. Having divested himself of his holdings in the Ti dewater, Ambrose’s “Mount Pleasant” estate was his chief capital holding and income source. However, this planta tion, a joint patent to Ambrose and his brother-in-law Thomas Chew, husband of his wife’s younger and nearest- in-age sister Martha Taylor, had never been formally divided between them and, on Ambrose’s death, titl e to the 4,675 acre tract passed entirely to Chew. Whatever anxieties, if any, attended this legal fact for Frances Taylor Madison, they were resolved on May 26, 1737 when Chew deeded 2,850 acres of the original pa tent “to Frances Maddison, widow and James Maddison, son and heir of Ambrose Madison, deceased.” This deed, recorded in the Orange Coun ty Virginia Deed Book 2, pages 10-13, further recites that “Ambrose Maddison depart ed this life before any legal division of the land was made, by which the whole was vested in Thomas Chew as survivor.” Mirroring the provisions of Ambrose’s will, Chew’s deed gave Frances a life estate only with the ti tle passing unencumbered on her death to her son, James Madison Sr., the President’s father. -
