| Although I am not a descendant of William Randolph, some of his descendants married into my family.
Consequently, I have devoted Allied Family Topic RA to his family. |
William Randolph, in his own words |
| If he could speak to us today, William Randolph might describe his life as follows. |
 |
Since I was baptized in the parish of Moreton-Morrell in Warwickshire, England, 7 November 1650, I correctly testified 2 December 1678 that I was 28 years old and again on 1 August 1689 that I was 38.  I was married to Mary Isham by 13 November 1678 when her brother Henry Isham made his will mentioning sister Mary Randolph. It is said she could play a guitar-like instrument called a cittern. |
|
Henrico County, which I represented in the House of Burgesses (1684-1711) and where I was clerk (1699-1702), charged me for five tithables, essentially a head tax, in 1679, and I paid property taxes on 1,655 acres in Surry County and 19,465 acres in Henrico County in 1704. |
|
In 1706 I gave 167 acres on Turkey Island Creek to son William and plantation “Curles” to son Henry. |
|
My 1711 will divided large tracts of land among our seven sons and left a ring each to our two married daughters. |
|  |
|
|
Randolph acquired 1,221 acres on a branch of Tuckahoe Creek by patent in 1695. Although no deed discloses it, Randolph evidently purchased from Edmund Jennings 3,256 acres—half his patent of 6,513 acres on Tuckahoe Creek, which Jennings got 20 Oct. 1689. A deed from John Pleasants to Randolph mentions land “next to the land which ye said William Randolph purchased from Edmund Jennings.” Randolph also held 2,926 acres in Charles City County 15 Oct. 1696. |
|
The will of William Randolph remembered his wife, Mary, 7 sons, and daughters Stith and Bland (will dated 6 March 1710/11 and proved 1 June 1713). |
