Rebecca Poythress' [Pace] 300 Acres on Easterly Run

Rebecca Poythress [Pace] owned her 300 acres, gifted to her by her mother, Mrs. Rebecca Poythress Bartholomew, from September 11, 1711, through December 12, 1721, when her sister, Anne Bartholomew Green sold her 200 acres to Robert Hunnicutt. Rebecca’s land was not recorded as being sold by May 14, 1728, when the Prince George Co. records cease to exist until June 12, 1759, with only the period from the March term 1737/8 to April, 1740, of the minutes of the court still in existence. Littlebury Epes died in 1743. His son, Littlebury Epes, Jr., died in 1737. On June 12, 1759, Thomas Epes purchased a tract adjoining land he already owned which places Thomas Epes’ land as that earlier held by Littlebury Epes, his grandfather. In 1779 Thomas Epes conveyed his land and plantation to his cousin, William Poythress (1753-1794), by will. The 1782 tax records reveal that Thomas was charged with 850 acres in the tax records. Thomas’ widow, Elizabeth, died by 1783 when William Poythress was listed as paying taxes on 850 acres. Rebecca Poythress’ 300 acres appears to have become part of Littlebury Epes’ property, on Easterly Run, after May 1728 and before Littlebury’s death in 1743, a period of about 15 years. In 1807, a survey was completed for the heirs of William Poythress that resulted in 863 acres divided among his four sons. The 1815 tax records recognize the 863 acres as being located three miles northeast of the courthouse, on Easterly Run, adjacent to Thomas Hunnicutt’s 200 acres that his ancestor bought from Anne Bartholomew Green. By 1720, the 863 acres was consolidated and the taxes were charged to Peter Epes, Jr., the son of Peter Epes of High Peaks located about a mile and a quarter west of Rebecca’s 300 acres.

William Poythress (1753-1794) owned a tract of 863 acres on Simmons Branch upon which he had been living at the time he died. Of the 863 acre Simmons branch property that William Poythress (1753-1794) possessed, 313 acres went to son William Poythress, 300 acres went to son Thomas Poythress, 200 acres went to son Patrick Poythress, and 50 acres went to son Joshua Poythress. [William Poythress’ (1753-1794) wife, Mary Gilliam, died before 1810. It appears that four of her children, Joshua, William, Thomas and Mary, went to live with second cousin William Poythress’ (1765-1810) wife, Elizabeth “Betty” Bland Poythress, and were enumerated with her in the 1810 census. The oldest son, Patrick Henry Poythress (1778-1822) had married Mary Elizabeth Epes by 1809 and had a son, William Peterson Poythress, born in 1810.] [“Betty” evidently had three underage sons of Hardiman Poythress also living with her in 1810.

[By 1811, Peter Epes, Jr., (1767-1822) had acquired approximately 663 acres of William Poythress’ (1753-1794)  land, representing the combined shares of William Poythress, Jr., Thomas Poythress, and Joshua Poythress; the specific deeds for these transfers are not identified in the abstracts and should appear in Prince George Co. deed books, 1807–1811. At the November term of court in 1812, Patrick Henry Poythress and wife Elizabeth conveyed his 200-acre share to Peter Epes, Jr., (Prince George County Order Book, 1811–1814). By 1815, land tax records show Peter Epes, Jr., charged with both 663 acres and an additional 200 acres identified as part of William Poythress’ estate. By 1815, Peter Epes, Jr., had acquired all portions of the 863-acre tract, which by 1820 was carried in the land tax books consolidating all portions of the original property.] [Peter Epes, Jr.’s parents were Peter Epes (1727-1807) and Mary Poythress (1730-1792). His mother was the daughter of Joshua Poythress (1688-1740) and a daughter (1702-aft. 1740) of John Hardiman, a niece of Littlebury Epes.]
