Middlesex County, VA, according to the Middlesex County, VA website was formed ABT 1669 from Lancaster County, VA. I do not know the reason they say "about 1669." Probably the reason there is no exact date for its formation is because VA, in that time frame, was broken down into parishes and they, instead of counties, were the "local units of ecclesiastical and community organization." Direct quote from the Middlesex County, VA website: <<< Middlesex County was probably named for the English county. It was formed from Lancaster about 1669.

SO, Captain William Daniell was the founder of the Daniel family in Middlesex County, Virginia in 1660 and to day there is a Christ Church Parish in Milldlesex and a Christ Church Parish in Lancaster. William Daniel, Sr. received land patent in 1672 in Middlesex Co., Va. A Col. Chisley was also an early settler in the Northern Necks of Virginia. "A Place in Time, Middlesex County, Virginia, 1650-1750" Notice the name Chisley, John. Hugh's son William was not the Captain William Daniel of Middlesex or the William Daniel of Caroline and while I suspect that some GEDCOM files etc., may infer that, the claim is quite improvable. Poor old William, the son of Hugh, has been a conveinient place to hang unproven data to. With or without a source reference,William Daniel was grandson of Luke Billington as per the will.
