The head of which is an Old Gentleman by the name of Henry Madison about 65 years of age who is son of Henry Madison who has been long dead, I believe of Caroline, he I understand was Brother to your Grand Father Ambrose. This old gentleman has resided in the County of Charlotte upwards of 40 years on the waters of Stanton River, near Rough Creek Church. He married about the time he settled here to one Martha White late of Hanrico. They have rais'd a large family Black & white, Eleven children of thier own 4 sons & 7 Daughters. The Oldest Son married and now dead leving Isue - second infirm, the two last promising young men perticularly the youngest by the name of James about 20 yrs. of age as has been said, named after you, lately employed in the mercantile business with a Brotherinlaw by the name of Robt. Venable cousin to the President of the Banck of V.A. in which they have been successfull. The five oldest Daughters are married & are fruitful two yet single. The third Daughter by the name of Elizabeth I married about 20 years ago, having 8 Children 6 Sons & 2 Daughters very healthy & promising.... /s/ Josiah Jackson [Published in the Madison Papers by Robert A.

Teute, ed., The Papers of James Madison Presidential Series Volume 1 1 March-30 September 1809, (Charlottesville: University Press of VA., ) pp. 217-219.] If this account is accurate, that would make Henry Madison, "an Old Gentleman", son of Henry Madison, brother of Ambrose Madison (grandfather of President James Madison, Jr.) alive in 1809 and born about 1744. #8 (viii).
