I have an ancestor, Adelia A. Russell who died Jan. 29, 1882 at 50 Queen Street, Norfolk, VA. Is there a possibility that she had an obit? I am enjoying the marriage info and the obits that you are posting. Thanks for all of your hard work in helping us out-of-towners who cannot get to the local library. Clare

Sharon, Thank you very much for the instructions, I will certainly follow then. Your suggestion that he may have married a woman with land in her own right is a possibility, but remote, I think. In that, he married Elizabeth Vestes in London in April of 1644 and at that time, they were both described as living in Lymehouse, London. Although he apparently owned land in Lower Norfolk, it appears he made his home in Lymehouse, Poplar and Ratcliffe, areas of London, east of the Tower. I found birth records for six of seven of his know children. Does this information in any way change where I should look for land records? Marleen

Marleen - On the main page of the Library of VA scroll down to where you see "Site Index" on the left. Select that item which will bring up a list of what is available. Select "Land Office Patents and Grants / Northern Neck Grants and Surveys Virginia". From there you can use the bottom search box and type in Odean (or whatever). I didn't see one for William, any spelling, so I'd suggest once you bring up a page use "previous page" and "next page" to scroll through the names they have. Click on the one you like for more information and then on the next screen click on the underlined number of the one you want to see. The pages are available for download but they are GIF format, not something that comes with a basic computer so you need to get a GIF reader (available free online various places). As for William, I didn't see where he had a land grant. I also checked Emily Walker's index of land in Norfolk County and didn't find him with an early land grant. I think you need to consider that he married land. When a man married a woman, he owned what she had.

Marleen, Have you checked the records at the library of virginia from the colonial virginia project? Might be land was given by king or some other related source. Another thought would be to trace neighbors to see when and how they got their land. My robinsons were on the e astern branch of the elizabeth river in what I think is now chesapeake.

I have been through the Deed / Will Books for Norfolk / Lower Norfolk and can not find how this family came into the land. William Odeon, the grandfather of the William, of the quit rent roll, is believed to have acquired land in Lower Norfolk on the Elizabeth River, prior to his death in 1662. The first entry in the Deed / Will book under that name is his will. I have gone through Nugent's Cavaliers and Pioneers. The first mention of this family is in 1666, when William Odeon's three children, William, Ellen and Richard and their servant, Elizabeth Manning, provided headrights for Richard Jones and Thomas Wilson. There are subsequent entries in Nugent for mentions of a William Odin, and various spellings, who had land on the Elizabeth River, after 1704. But in none of these is there an entry for the acquisition of the land. Can any of you who have more knowledge of Virginia land records and specifically the records of Norfolk / Lower Norfolk county, please make suggestions as to where I might look for the records?

I made it into the Norfolk Public Library........... but unfortunately only for a short time. I did manage to copy the following marriage notices from the Norfolk Herald.. Kristina

Could someone please look see if there is a death notice or record for Timothy Michael ALLEN b.abt 1849 Rockingham Co., VA., s/o Margaret Jane Pirkey. On most the records I found referencing him he went by his middle name Michael ALLEN, but on his marriage (Mar 11, 1878 Norfolk, VA) and his wife's (Rebecca Jane LAWRENCE) obituary (Virginia Pilot) his name is indicated in full and that he was from the Rockingham Co. area...that he was the grandson of Thomas ALLEN b. 1784 PA-d. Oct 25, 1855 Rockingham Co., VA., wife name was Keziah ?? B. abt 1787 His headstone is located at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Norfolk, VA with his wife and some of his children. The headstone is a black ornate stone with just the last name of ALLEN. He was a Norfolk City Constable. I estimated his death between last found records 1889 to 1890. In the few times I've had the opportunity to get to the Norfolk Library the place is so vast and the time is so little to scour so much...especially when reading the newspapers. Sincerely and Thank you Catherine
