Discussion on another list has focused on whether or not Richard Rogers of Northumberland Co. VA, son of Capt. John Rogers and brother of William Rogers ( who married Elizabeth Dale), had more than one wife. His only known wife was Jane Presley, b. June 1664 in Northumberland Co. VA to Peter Presley, according St. Stephen's Parish register. She later remarried to Christopher Neale ca 1698. But she seems too young to have been the mother of all of his children - son John, the earliest one recorded in the St. Stephen's register, was born in Dec 1676. Richard Rogers' will was presented for probate on 18 Aug 1697 by his widow Jane Rogers and Mr. Robert Banks. In 1703, the following action took place in Northumberland Co. - The 20th day of May Anno Dom. 1703. "Upon the Moc'on of Christ'r Neale and Jane his wife a Com'c'on of Adm'c'on is granted them on the Estate of Richard, John and Hannah Rogers the said Janes Children giving Caution for their Due administrac'on on the said Dec'eds Estate According to Law." Source: Northumberland County Virginia, Court Order Book, Part 1 1699-1713), ed. Charles & Virginia Hamrick (Athens, GA: Iberian Publishing Company, 1999), pg. 249. I don't have access to this book to look at it myself, but a transcript was posted by someone who said she saw the actual document as well as read it in the cited source . "... said Dec'eds Estate" seems to be referring to the children named - Richard, John and Hannah Rogers. If the clerk followed typical procedure, the children were named in birth order (or sons in birth order followed by daughters in birth order). This would seem to indicate that son Richard [Jr.] was born before Dec 1676. Even if Richard was born only 9 months prior to his brother John, in March 1676, that would mean that he was conceived about June 1675, when his supposed mother Jane had just turned 11. Not impossible, but highly unlikely. Thus, I do believe that Jane was probably Richard's second wife. So, my questions - 1. Does anyone know if Richard Rogers' will itself survives? Does anyone have a transcription of it? There has been some question about which of his children are actually named in his will. 2. Does anyone know of deeds or other records that mention Richard Rogers and his wife about 1676 or earlier? 3. Am I interpreting the 1703 action correctly? Is there any proof that these children were not dead in 1703? There was a Mr. Richard Rogers in Northumberland Co. in Dec. 1693 - "In the County Levy Dec. 21, 1693, Burgess charges were allowed the following: Mr. Richard Rogers, Mr. Richard Flynt, Capt. Wm. Lee, Mr. Cuthbert Span, Jr. Jno. Downing & Capt. Wm. Jones." Source: an article about Robert Jones of Fleet's Bay, Northumberland Co. VA in "William and Mary Quarterly Historical Magazine" V. 23:200 (Jan. 1915). Who was he? Could he have been the above Richard Rogers [Jr.]? I appreciate any help. This isn't my family, this is just for my own intellectual curiosity and maybe to set the record straight. Vickie Elam White

Hi, Doug. I am rather certain that your man meant Malvern Hill, the very well-known battlefield of the Civil War, and part of the "Seven Days Battle". You will find it on any map of Virginia east and a tad south of Richmond. For Holt's Forge, read the July 10th entry at http://www.connecticutsar.org/articles/diary.htmLook You might also want to look at Plate cxxxvii of the "War Of The Rebellion", which records appear in the entirety on the net. Go to google and search that title, for which there are myriad entries. Then go to "Atlas" of that website, then to the map at the Plate shown.

Hi All, We do a lot of work using old tax lists to reconstruct the missing 1790 and 1800 Virginia Censuses.
