    THE JEFFERSON FAMILY OF PITTSYLVANIA
    COUNTY.

    Communicated by Mrs. N. E. Clement, Chatham, Va.

    In number 3 of Vol, XXII., in an account of the Allen family,
    mention is made of he marriage of Elizabeth Allen to Field Jefferson,
    mother of Col. Peter Jefferson, of Albemarle. Field Jefferson's
    will, dated 1762, is filed at Mecklenburg Courthouse, and in it he
    names four sons, viz.: Thomas, Peter Field, George and John.

    George Jefferson patented large bodies of land in Pittsylvania
    County, a part of which he later sold to his brother Peter Feld.

    In the first lists of tithables taken in Pittsylvania County we
    find,
    "List of Tithables taken by George Jefferson in Pittsylvania
    County, Camden Parish, Year 1767."

    In list occurs following items:

    "George Jefferson (Mecklenburg)
    John Davis, Overseer, and negroes (to wit), Land
    Tithes Acres.
    Sam, Chance, Pompey, Phillis, Pal and Sary 7 8000

    In May, 1774, George Jefferson, of Lunenburg, sells to Peter
    Field Jefferson, of Mecklenburg, for L120, 409 acres on Turkey
    Cock Creek, Pittsylvania Co.

    For L60, 321 acres on Sailor's Creek, Pittsylvania Co.
    For L500, 1005 acres on Turkey Cock Creek, Pittsylvania.

    Again in 1776, he sells him 140 acres in Pittsylvania. Peter
    Field Jefferson must have soon after this removed to Pittsylvania
    County to live, for in 1779 we find him selling 380 acres for L350
    to Elisha Walker, and in the deed giving his place of residence as
    Pittsylvania County. There is no will of Peter Field Jefferson
    recorded in Pittsylvania, but there is one of his wife, Mrs.
    Elizabeth Jefferson, dated 1828. In it she mentions

    Page 182.

    following children: Sons Field Jefferson, John Jefferson, Samuel A.
    Jefferson, Alexander Jefferson, Archer Jefferson, dec'd, and Thomas
    Jefferson, dec'd; daughters Patsy Brewer and Judith Jefferson. From
    the marriage Register we find that on Feb. 27, 1806, Thomas Jefferson
    married Elizabeth Ball. Feb. 20, 1808, Alexander Jefferson married
    Elizabeth Smith. Alexander Jefferson's will is dated 1837 and
    probated 1838.

    A grandson of Alexander Jefferson, Col. David Alexander Jefferson, of Chatham, Virginia is a prominent member of his family to-day.

  1. 8.  Captain John Kendrick was born Abt 1757, Virginia; died 17 Jul 1810, Mendota, Virginia.

    Notes:

    Name:
    I have a copy of a letter that states, "In 1927 I went to a small cemetery on the side of a hill near Mendota VA, containing only three tombstones: John Kendrick died 17 July 1810, Jeremiah Galvin, died 9 Feb 1830: and Elisha Kennedy, died 20 Mar 1854. I don't know whether this cemetery is still in existence. There is on listing for it in McConnell's HIGH ON A WINDY HILL or in Peterson's SCOTT COUNTY VA CEMETERY RECORDS. The three men whose stones were in the cemetery were successively the husbands of Elizabeth (Summers) Kendrick Galvin Kennedy. She is buried in Somerset, Pulaski Co, KY. Where her tombstone reads: Elizabeth Kennedy, died 26 Nov 1857, age 76 yrs old."
    The letter does give children born to Elizabeth Summer and husband Jeremian Galvin, Elizabeth Summer & Elisha Kennedy. I have never researched this information

    Oaths of Allegiance 1777 Pittsylvania County, Virginia
    NOTE: Hugh Reynolds and his son Joseph are found on this 1777 list. Hugh's son William, is not, The record for William Reynolds is found in Virginia Court Records, page 125, also dated 1777. Joseph's Baptism of 15 Aug 1759 gives us his age. William is shown on court records in 1788 when he inherits the land of his grandfather, William Neeley. Both Joseph and William are Qualified as Executors (Book 6/170 Pittsylvania Co., Virginia Court Records 1787-91)
    Another record dated 22 Mar 1796 for William Reynolds and Charles Lewis must be our William, as the other William Reynolds of Culpepper has died in 1791. No connecton has been documented for William of Culpepper having any connection to the Hugh Reynolds family. -Mary Frances Reynolds
