Biography
Residence: Lower Norfolk Co., Va.
(1) Laura Tully, et al., Whiddons From England to America, 1998, page 1.
(2) Tully, page 1, assumes William and Augustine Whiddon were minors when transported to Virginia, but this is only speculation. I have not been able to determine when Augustine was born. Tully places the marriage of Augustine and Sarah Cherry, “daughter of John Cherry and Rebecca Maund,” as about 1684; another source has Sarah’s mother as Elizabeth Faithful.
(3) Tully, page 1, dates the birth of John, Augustine, and William Whiddon as between 1685 and 1693. Augustine’s 1690 will proves his three sons were minors; however, this means only they were under eighteen, which would give a range for their respective births from 1672 to 1690. I would guess they were older than Tully indicates.
(4) Tully, page 1.
