      1691 Dec. 1st Inventory [Henrico Co. VA Will Book #3 1688-1697 page 263] Inventory of Thomas DAVIS appraised 28 Nov. 1691 by order of court Oct 1st last. Value 765 lbs tobacco By William DODSON, Francis MAYBERRY, George HUNT, and Henry VADEN. Presented in court by Thomas TOTTY and his wife Mary TOTTY, late relict of Thomas DAVIS. Recorded 1 Dec 1691.

      1691 December Court [Henrico County Records Book No. 2, 1678-1693 Com: Hen:ci pro die Decemb.s A:o Dm 1691] Tho: TOTTY & __________ his wife according to Order of the last Court prsenting the Inventory & Apprizemt of her former husband Thomas Davis's estate & it appearing to be under the value of an Admcon It is therefore order'd that ye same doe remain in his Custody as Trustee thereof he giving security for ye same. Geo: Hunt in Open Court enters himself security With Tho: TOTTY the Trustee for ye estate belonging to ye Orphs of Tho: Davis dec:d.
      Notes: Why is George Hunt named as security with Thomas TOTTY regarding the estate of the Orphans of Thomas Davis? What tie did George Hunt have with Thomas TOTTY? Could it have something to do with the widow Mary Davis who married Thomas TOTTY? It has been thought by many TOTTY researchers, that Mary was nee Carter, daughter of Giles & Hannah CARTER who was named in his will as being married to Thomas DAVIS. However some questions as to Mary being a Carter has been voiced due to her age. ANY help on this puzzel would be greatly appreciated!
