A correction is needed in part of my 17 Feb 2006 message, captioned "Some Charles City Co, VA burials & burial sites" I inadvertently combined info 2 Francis Poythress deaths. I should have better separated them, as did the compiler of the book, "80% Heaven Bound: Deaths & Burials in Charles City County, Virginia" compiled by Sherry Brown Tyler for the Charles City County Historical Society. Note: In looking at these now, I wonder if Tyler might have made an editing error in including these 3 citations for the first death, however since I haven't studied the 3 sources she mentions, I cannot clarify why/whether the 3 are sources of the death of the first Francis. If any of you have studied these 3 sources, and find any error here, please let me know: Tyler noted on her p.404, the death of Capt. Ffran. Poythres prior to court date of Apr 1661, who left his land to son John, and she gave these sources re his death: - "Will & Deed Book, 1692-1694 fragment: 3 Apr 1694, mentioned in letter of attorney" - "Court Orders, 1687-1695: Maj. Fra. Poythress - 8 Jan 1688, administration, with will annexed, granted to Rebecca, widow (date may be death date or meeting held at house on this date) - Dr. Ja. Tubb later granted judgment against estate "for phyusical means administered in his last sickness" - "Will & Deed Book, 1692-1694, fragment: Francis Poythress - 30 Oct 1693, mentioned in power of attorney as deceased." Tyler noted on her p.412, the death of Maj. Fra. Poythress prior to the court date of 8 Jan 1688, and she mentions only the second of the above-cited sources, re action taken following his death: - administration, with will annexed, granted to Rebecca, widow (date may be death date or meeting held at house on this date) - Dr. Ja. Tubb later granted judgment against estate "for phyusical means administered in his last sickness" Thanks for any further clarification anyone can offer. Barbara
