Rosegill was to be the home of five generations of Wormeleys, all important in the hierarchy of the colony. The history of Rosegill, like that of all important great houses, was significant in the colony's beginnings, for its contributions to leadership in government, and in the life of church and parish. Early in its history it became a center of influence and power in the commercial life and shipping on the Rappahannock. Significant too was its connection with every great house in the colony, especially those in Middlesex. In 1649 Ralph Wormeley patented 3,200 acres on Rosegill Creek and the Rappahannock River, ten miles up the river from the bay, which land included the Indian Towns of Old and New Nimcock. Later Rosegill Creek was to be called Nimcock and then Urbanna Creek. Ralph Wormeley's plantation on the York River across Wormeley's Creek from the Moore House was owned by Capt. Ralph Wormeley, Esq., of his Majesty's Councill and by his descendants, the Wormeleys of Rosegill, until 1766. When Ralph Wormeley died in 1651 he left two infant children and his widow, Agatha Eltonhead Wormeley. A short time later she married Sir Henry Chicheley, who in 1650 had been a guest in the Wormeley home in Virginia, "but before the said marriage was compleate, Agatha Wormeley by an instrument in wrighting under her hand Seale Settled the Estate of Ralph Wormeley (considerable estate in Houses, Land, Plats, Jewels, Goods, Household Stuff, Horses, Mares, Tobacco, Negroes, English Servants and other estates within the Counties of Yorke and Lancaster now the said County of Middlesex in Virginia)."

Reply of Robert Carter of Peoria, Illinois: Dear William, I came across your Message board posting dated a year ago regarding the parentage of WILLIAM (John?) CARTER born @ 1660 in Middlesex Co, va. Is this the same WILLIAM CARTER that married Penelope Pew (or dePew) in 1681 and MARY GOODLOE (or GOODLOW) in 1691? His birthdate is also given as @ 1660. This WILLIAM is my ggggggrandfather and I've also been searching for his parentage. I know that other researchers have usually given his father's name as (Col.) William Carter born @ 1641 in Va. If that is accurate it would seem to make him a first born child. I've yet to find any solid evidence of this however, and the only source I've found any reference to him other than gedcoms is a rather weak one. Several William Carters do show up in indexes of Colonial Virginia Militia ranks, however, so I'm hoping to find access to the original sources to find what information they may have. I also had been exploring a possible connection to the Giles Carter family but haven't come up with anything. I've also been exploring some other leads but so far have found nothing but deadends. If this is the same WILLIAM CARTER, have you found any new information since your posting? If so, I'd be greatly interested if you were willing to share, and I'd gladly do the same. Sincerely, Robert Carter, Peoria, IL, November 4, 2000
