      Hugh Powell, tr. by Hugh Cox, 6 Dec 1634

      For the importation into the Colony of Virginia, the settlers were granted 50 acres of land for each person brought over. Upon making application for the grant, the name of the person imported had to be given. The following list names has been taken from the records in the Land Office. The date in a large number of cases is probably not the year in which the immigrant arrived; he may have been in the Colony several years, but the date when the colonist made application for his importation grant. The abbreviation 'tr.' means transported.
