      I just walked the Cedar Lane FARM in New Kent County, Virginia and there is an ancient solitary cedar in a large open field, under which is the headstone reading:

      Here lies the body of William WADDILL who departed this life Oct 17, 1738 aged 70 years.

      That means William WADDILL was born in 1668.

      There is one more headstone which the tree trunk has grown around and all that is really legible is "Ann Waddill" - nothing else can be seen .....literally the tree has grown into/around the carved stone. Really incredible.

      I found the fol online this evening which provides a bit more info on this William WADDILL:

      The Waddills lived in St. Peter's Parish for many years, as shown by the register and other parish records. William Waddill, Sr., was a vestryman and also church warden of St. Peter's Parish. His name was spelled Waddell in all the records until the meeting of August 18th, 1704, after which it was always spelled Waddill until it disappears from the vestry proceedings, the last entry being at the meeting of October 8th, 1737. [Note ? this makes perfect sense because William Waddill died Oct 17, 1738 and is buried under a large tree on Cedar Lane Farm on ground that is near St. Peter?s Parish in New Kent County, Virginia.]

      William Waddill, son of William Waddill, was baptized April 29th, 1694. William Waddill was a witness to the will of John Carter's father, Theodrick Carter (Second). One of the witnesses to the will of John Carter of Halifax was Noel Waddill.
