    1. Bartholomew Austin
    2. Carolyn: As promised, here is some information on our old Bartholomew ( I think?): On January 23rd, 1676/77 Bartholomew Austin was given 1000 for the keeping of Jonathon Rumball, a minor, by Petsworth Parish Gloucester County Virginia Vestry according to their Book 1677-1793, Transcribed, Annotated and Indexed by C.G. Chamberlayne, Petsworth Parish Gloucester County Virginia Vestry Boo 1677-1793, (The Library Board, Richmond 1933), p. 1,5,8. Also, Bartholomew Austin was involved in a lawuit brought by guardian of Conquest Wyatt in Glouchester County concerning Lease with the Cheskyake Indians. From Adventures of Purse and Person p. 722 Pub. Order of First Families of Virgina 1987, Citing Minutes of Council and General Courts of Virginia 2d ed. (Richmond 1979). This last reference ties Bartholomew to Gloucester County, where Barhtolomew was hanged after the Tobbacco Rebellion in the 1680's.
