Notes:

Name:
Another Henry Watkins is seen in the list of living individuals in 1623 in Virginia.

Henry married Catherine Pride. Catherine was born Est 1635, Aaccomac Plantation, Colonial Virginia; died Yes, date unknown. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Married:
One thing that endears Henry Watkins, to me, is his disbursement of his lands to his children prior to his death. He mentions his love for his children when he gave land to each of his sons on the south side of Chickahominy Swamp in 1691/2. The tradition of primogeniture was still common in the early colonies. However, by making a will you could distribute your property as you saw fit. Henry went even further than this when he partitioned his land to his sons prior to his death. I feel it showed a great deal of confidence in the ability and integrity of his sons.

In January 1691/2, he gifted, "With love and affection," the following to his sons:
William: 120 acres next to Edward Finch
Joseph: 120 acres ?in the lower part?
Edward: 120 acres ?in the lower part?
Henry (Jr.): ?the tract where I now live?
Thomas: 200 acres on ?Three Runs?
