Pace, Poythress, Bartholomew, Green, Boyce, Scott Relationships

 

    Charles and Rebecca Bartholomew leased land to George Rives that was a part of the land that they gave to her daughter, Rebecca Poythress, in 1711. George Rives’ niece, Rebecca, married John Hicks about 1712. John and Rebecca Hicks’ daughter, Rebecca, married Edward Tatum. Edward’s brother, Christopher, married Bridget Scott, granddaughter of Thomas Boyce and Emelia Craven. Nathaniel Tatum married Emelia Scott, daughter of John Scott and Bethia Scott, granddaughter of Thomas Boyce and Emelia Craven. George Rives’ nephew of the same name married Frances Tatum, daughter of Christopher Tatum and Bridget Scott and granddaughter of John Scott and Bethia Boyce. John and Tabitha Pace Moore’s children were cousins of young George Rives and Rebecca Rives Hicks who were grandchildren of Richard Moore. John Hicks, Rebecca Rives’ husband, and William Rives, Rebecca Rives’ brother, were at the real estate sale of John Barlow with Richard Pace and his family in 1738 in Surry Co.

    John Scott and Bethia Boyce were in Surry Co. by 1718 and their son, John Scott, Jr., died there in 1724. Their daughter, Bridget, married Christopher Tatum. Anne and Burrell Green and Richard and Rebecca Pace were also in Surry Co. by 1718 and Burrell Green died there intestate in 1733. Anne was appointed administratrix of his estate on September 19, 1733, with Henry Mitchell, John Weaver and Christopher Tatum appointed to appraise the estate. Burrell and Anne appear to have lived in what was later Sussex Co. Christopher was married to Anne Green's cousin Bridget.

    By 1723, John Bartholomew was living in the area of James Washington, Lawrence House, the husband of Sarah Pace, and the Kymballs, William and Charles. In 1724, William Kymball received a grant adjacent to James Vaughan, 325 acres on the south side of Little creek, of the Three Creek, beginning by the side of Little Creek, a corner of James Vaughan’s land adjacent to Charles Kymball of Surry Co. In 1734, William Vaughan, of Surry Co., was granted 400 acres, in Surry Co., on the south side of the Nottaway river and on the north side of Three Creek that adjoined land of Charles Kimball. 

    In 1724, John Ledbetter assisted in the inventory of John Scott, Jr.’s estate. Christopher Tatum was married to Bridget Scott, the sister of John Scott, Jr. John Bartholomew was Rebecca Poythress’ step-brother and John Scott, Jr., and Bridget Scott Tatum were the children of her first cousin Bethia Boyce Scott. In 1734, there was a bridle way from Quarrel Swamp at Henry Ledbetter’s old path to the old Westward ford on Meherrin River and then straightaway into Tatum’s road. Richard Ledbetter was the overseer of the road assisted by Matt Edwards, William Kymbal, Thomas Bailes, Richard Bryan and John Bartholomew.

    John Bartholomew (-1735) was the only Bartholomew male in Pr. Geo. Co., Va., other than Charles Bartholomew, his father, until his sons, John and Charles, were born. John named his sons, John, after himself, and Charles, after his father. Frances Tye Bartholomew was John’s (-1735) mother. He was a half-brother to Anne Bartholomew.

    On 7 Aug 1735, at the Brunswick Co. Ct., Elizabeth Bartholomew was granted administration of the estate of John Bartholomew, deceased. Charles Kimball and William Kimball were her securities. Joseph Kimball, Edward Tatum, Ralph Jackson, and Peter Tatum were appointed to appraise the estate, and the Administratrix was also ordered to return an Inventory to the next Court. On 2 Oct 1735, at the Brunswick Co. court, an inventory of the estate of John Bartholomew was returned by Elizabeth Bartholomew, the Administratrix, who made oath thereto and was ordered to be recorded. William Duke’s second wife, by 1742, was Elizabeth Bartholomew the widow of John Bartholomew who died in 1735.
