Benjamin Terry had documented sons in his Will of 1771 as follows: Nathaniel, Benjamin, Peter, Joseph and Robert Terry.

Benjamin Terry is one of the oldest "documented" Terry ancestors in the group from Virginia and he perfectly matches the modal values for Haplogroup I - Lineage I indicating he is the closest match to the MRCA (Most recent common ancestor) for the whole group. Benjamin?s oldest son Nathaniel Terry (1725-1778) married Sarah Royall. Nathaniel Terry was a member of the House of Burgesses and of the House of Delegates. He died, Halifax County, Virginia. This older Benjamin Terry had a daughter Sarah Terry who married Champness Terry, the son of Joseph Terry died about Dec 1785 Pittsylvania County, Virginia and his wife Judith Crawford. This Champness Terry died between 1775 and 1779 in South Carolina. Champness and Sarah had a son also named Champness (1772-1820) who died in St. Helena Parish, Louisiana.

Notes:

Other Terrys mentioned in the Halifax Antrim Parrish Vestry Records are James Terry, Champness Terry, Zachariah Terry, Joseph Terry, and Moses Terry.

According to records, Nathaniel Terry Sr. had a slave named Greggory who was charged in 1777 with beating a certain Hector McNeil, a merchant from Scotland, to the point that McNeil's life was in great danger. The gentlemen justices agreed that Greggory should 'receive thirty lashes on his bare back". It was ordered that Greggory be taken by the sheriff to the common whipping post.

Records stated that Nathaniel Terry Sr. appeared before the grand jury for taking a stray horse and riding him "contrary to the law."

Nathaniel Terry Sr. and his son, William Terry appeared in Halifax court, March 1777 on a complaint of James McCraw. McCraw stated that he 'is apprehensive that said Nathaniel and William Terry will beat, woulnd, maim or kill him." The court dismissed the charges after questioning a witness. The Revolutionary War had just begun at this time. The author's conclusion is that this incident had something to do with England and the way the planters felt about England. Feelings against the Tories of the British parliament ran high in Halifax County at that time.

Halifax Co, VA Plea Book No. 4 (85) September Court 1763
Nathaniel Terry, for the King and for himself, Plt, vs Thomas Tuck, Deft, In Debt. Judgment is granted to the Plt against the Deft for his costs, according to an agreement made between the sd parties.

20 July 1768 Charlotte Co., Virginia (DB2/245.p.054) Deed Abstract identifies Nathaniel Terry as maker of a deed in Lunenburg to James Taylor, witnessed by Will Barksdale and James Cole

"At a Meeting of the Justices appointed for Halifax County at Hampton Wade's House, the XIXth, day of May, in the XXVth. Year of the Reign of our Sovereign Lord King George II, and in the year of our Lord Christ, One Thousand Seven Hundred and Fifty Two, a Commission of Peace was produced from the Honorable Robert Dinwiddie, His Majesty's Lieutenant Governor and Commander in Chief of the Colony and Dominion of Virginia, bearing date at Williamsburg, Virginia, the twenty-eighth day of April in the year of Our Lord, One Thousand Seven Hundred and Fifty Two, and direct to William Byrd,* William Wynne, Peter Fontaine, Jr., James Terry, William Irby, Nathaniel Terry, Robert Wade, Hampton Wade, Andrew Wade, and Sherwood Walton, Gentlemen: - "At this meeting the usual oaths were administered. Nathaniel Terry was sworn sheriff; George Currie was made clerk of the court; Thomas Nash, surveyor; Clement Read (of Lunenburg, and later of Charlotte county), King's attorney. John Light, Joseph Faris and Abel Lee were appointed constables. Nicholas Hayle, Robert Jones and James Irwin were recommended as justices.

*Son of William Byrd of Westover, who ran the dividing line between Virginia and North Carolina in 1727.

Alice Allen and Hannah Parsons, Spinsters, Came into Court, and respectively acknowledged themselves guilty of having had each a Bastard child, whereas they make their fines by payments of each of them 50 shillings or five hundred pounds of tobacco (Persuant to the Act of the Assembly, in that case made and provided) and thereupon came Nathaniel Terry, Gent., who together with Members of the Court now sitting, became Securities for payment of the fines at the laying of the next Levy for the Parish of Antrim.

Halifax County, which extends to the North Carolina border, was a tobacco growing region, as it still is today. It is in the middle of Soutside Virginia, in the Piedmont
Pleateau of rolling hills leading to the Blue Ridge Mountains, and today it appears that this land, in the southwest corner of the county, is in the area that forms something of a
triangle between secondary state Highways #691 and #659 (the River Road), very near the present community of Paces and possibly nine or so miles southwest of the county seat, also called Halifax. On a larger scale this area is south of U. S. #360 and north of U. S. #58. The tiny town of Turbeville, once called Bloomsburg, is about four miles southeast from where Tobys Creek flows into the Dan River. Danville, in adjacent Pittsylvania County is about 25 miles southwest from this point.

Name:
Captain Nathaniel Terry was a member of the House of Burgess in Williamsburg in 1755, 1765, and 1771 and 1775. He was a delegate to the Virginia Convention of 1776. Terry married Sarah Royall. Nathaniel Terry had a water grist mill on the falls of Sandy Creek in 1754. In 1756, Nathaniel was granted an ordinary license and in 1757 an orphan named Elenor Ozbrook was placed in his care. In 1757 and 1759 Nathaniel had a ferry on the Dan River. In 1771 he was appointed as a surveyor from Banister's Bridge to Martin's Path Road.

Nathaniel married Sarah Anne Royall 10 Sep 1748, Chesterfield Co., Virginia. Sarah (daughter of Joseph William Royall and Sarah Povall Baxter) was born 17 Mar 1726, Chesterfield County, Virginia; died 1805. [Group Sheet]
