Middlesex county. Arms: Ermine, a rose gules, barbed and seeded ppr. Robert Beverley, the immigrant, came from Yorkshire (Burke's "Landed Gentry") to Virginia in 1663 and settled in Middlesex county, of which he was a Justice in 1673, and Clerk of the 'House of Burgesses in 1670. His first wife was Mary, said to have been a daughter of George Keeble of Lancaster county, and his second, Catherine, either the daughter of Major Theophilus Hone of James City county or his widow, it is uncertain which, whom, he married in Gloucester county, 2S March, 1679 (Christ Church Par. Reg.). Major Beverley died 15 March, 1686. He had issue by his first wife: Peter, Robert and Harry Beverley, and a daughter, Mary, who married in 1694 William Jones of King and Queen. By his second wife, Catherine Hone, he had issue: William, bapt. 4 Jan., IGSO, married Judith, daughter of Christopher Wormeley, and widow of Corbin Griffin, and died 1702. John, in 16S7 under the guardianship of his brother Peter, he d.s.p. Thomas, d.s.p. 1686. Christopher, bapt. 19 Feb., 16S6, he was Sheriff of King and Queen in 1729 and d.s.p. Catharine Beverley, married John Robinson, son of Christopher Robinson, Secretary of State and member of the Council, and nephew of John Robinson, Bishop of London. Col. Peter Beverley, eldest son of Major Robert, the immigrant, was clerk of Gloucester county, and also of the House of Burgesses 1691-99; he was also Speaker of the House 1700-14, Treasurer of Virginia 1710-23, member of the Council in 1719. and died, in 1728. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Major Robert Peyton of "Isleham," Gloucester county, and left issue, two daughters, Susanna and Elizabeth. Robert Beverley, second son of Major Robert, lived in King and Queen county, of which he was clerk 1C99-1702, member of the House of Burgesses for Jamestown 1699, 17u0, 1702, 1706. etc. He was clerk of the Council in 1697. He married Ursula, died 31 Oct 1698, aged 16 years and 11 months, daughter of Col. William Byrd, leaving a son William. Captain Harry Beverley, third son of Major Robert, was Justice of Middlesex in 1700. He removed to Spotsylvania county about 1720 and was for a number of years presiding Justice. He died 1730 and married about 1700, Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of Robert Smith of "Brandon," Middlesex, by whom he had issue: Elizabeth, Robert, Susanna, Mary. Catherine, Judith. Peter, Agatha, Anne and Margaret. There has been some confusion in regard to the correct arms of the Beverley family. Upon the will of the first Major Robert Beverlev. presented at Middlesex Court House, there is a wax seal which has upon it, "Quarterly argent and gules, a rose counterchanged, barbed vert." William Beverley of "Blandfield," son of Robert Beverley, 2nd. and grandson of the immigrant, writing to his London agent in 1739, states, "That he sends him a seal which he wishes recut, that it was made in 1723, but had the wrong arms engraved upon it, that the arms his father used were ' red rose seeded and barbed in a field ermine, with a unicorn's head for crest, and not the three bull's heads.'" On a bond of William Beverley, 1736, in Essex County Court, there is a wax seal with the following arms, "Argent a chevron sable, on a chief of the second three bulls' heads embossed of the first." These are the arms spoken of by William Beverley in his letter, and were according to him, incorrect. The old tomb of Ursula (Bvrd) Beverley, who died in 1695 bore Beverley and Byrd impaled, for the former, "Ermine a rose gules, barbed and seeded ppr." The Beverley book plates bear the arms of the three bulls' heads and chevron, but it is evident that they are incorrect, and that the proper arms are as given above.
