I'm seeking clarification on the RUST/GARLAND connections. W&MQ, Series 2, 2:20, p. 319: "Garland: Griffin and Mary (Rust) Garland. Children: Benjamin Newton, Jeremiah, Peter Rust, and Elizabeth Rust Garland. Griffin's will, Richmond County, Va., 1808. --Ellsworth Marshall Rust, 1010 Vermont Ave., Washington, DC." Headley does not abstract this will, as it falls after 1800. Has anyone on our Rust list seen it? Ellsworth M. Rust, _Rust of Virginia_ (Washington, 1940), p. 56: "[child of Capt. Peter RUST by second wife Elizabeth NEWTON] Mary, m. by 1772, Griffin Garland, who at one time was surveyer of Richmond County, Virginia, d. 1808, his will proven in that year, made in 1804, names children by his first wife, Mary Rust, she being deceased. Children: "495-Benjamin Newton Garland, "496-William Griffin Garland, "497-Jeremiah Garland, "498-Peter Rust Garland, "499-Elizabeth Rust Garland." But also see: W&MQ, Series 1, 12:2, p. 182: "Marriage Bonds of Lancaster Co., VA. . . . 16 March, 1791, Griffin Garland and Frances Burwell, widow. Mrs. Frances Burwell's letter of consent ot the clerk, dated Mount Pleasant, March 16, 1791. Test, Elizabeth Levell, Alice Bond." Was Frances a second wife? What was her maiden name? Which BURWELL was her first husband? Note also that E.M. Rust's book names a child (William Griffin GARLAND) who is not mentioned in the W&MQ article but does not cite any source. Does anyone have documentation on him? Kathleen Much kathleen@casbs.stanford.edu
