VA) and Anne or Mary Hadden (or Madden). 1 NOTE "John West, brother of Thomas, Third Lord Delaware, Gov of VA, was born___, and died in 1659-60. He was a member of the Va Company 1609; he came to the Colony at an early date; was member of the House of Burgesses 1629-30, justice of York (whree he lived some time) 1634 and member of the Council from 1631 until his death. He was Gov from May 1635 to Jan 1637 and in the latter year was sent to England (along with Matthews and Utie and Peirce who had gone over a year before) to stand trial for their share in Harvey's deposition; but nothing appears to have come of it. On August 27 1640 the King wrote to the Governor of Virginia directing him to send over West Matthews Peirce and Menefie to answer to an information in the Star Chamber. This likewise seems to have amounted to nothing for in the next year (1641) he was appointed Muster Master-General of Virginia. He married Anne____?____ and had an only child John West Jr. By order of court bearing date 6th of June 1632 Sir John Harvey Knight and the rest of the Council granted unto Captain John West 2000 acres of land in consideration of his son being the first born Christian at Chiscayack (Conway Robinson's Notes from General Court Records). In 1651 Captain John West was granted 1550 acres in York county and among the head rights were himelf "4 times" [ie; four times from England]Mrs. Anne West "twice," and John West Jr. Among other large grants was one on the Mattapony in Gloucester Co.," in 1654 and another (as Col. John West) in 1657. This last he failed to seat and in 1662 it was regranted to Captain John West as his "son and heir." In 1655 Col. John West Esq. and John West Jr. were witnesses to a deed from Pindeabank an Indian to Edward Wyat (son of Rev. Hawte Wyatt). At the session of March 1659-60 the Assembly passed an order declaring "Whereas the many important favours and serves rendered to the contrey {sic} of Virginia by the noble family of the West predecessors to Mr. John West their now only survivor claim at least a gratefull remembrance of their former merits be still continued to their survivor It is ordered That the levies of the said Master West and his family be remitted and that he be exempted from payment thereof during life." (Hening I, 547) Col. John West, Jr., lived at "West Ponit" (now King William county); sat on the courts martial which tried the rebels in Bacon's time, and in 1680 was senior justice and Colonel commanding the militia of New Kent County (see Mag III p. 248). He married Ursula daughter of Major Joseph Croshaw of York county (York Records) and left issue (his will being dated 1689) - three sons John Nathaniel and Thomas and a daughter Anne who married Henry Fox. They have many descendants of their own name and in the families of Aylett Claiborne Fox Dandridge and numerous others." ¨13. Greenbriar County Legislative Petitions; 1783 June 13. Petition for repeal of the law requiring that no grant on settlement or preemption rights be issued until 3 pounds per 100 acres be paid to the grantees. Some of the petitioners when first settled in the county signed a petition by the late Gen. Lewis agent to the Greenbrier company in 1773 to preserve their land from the claims of officers and soldiers which then threatened them but it was their only recourse since no land office was open.
