Solomon Redman being summoned & returned by the Sheriff to take upon him the oath and office of a grandjuryman for this County and not appearing is fined 200 pounds of tobo. last Wednesday in May 1692--fine subsequently acquitted.

2. Solomon Redman was married by 27 Sep 1693 to Ann ---?---.

3. On 27 Sep 1693, in Westmoreland County, Virginia, Solomon Redman and wife Ann acknowledge a deed of gift to Solomon's brother John Redman.

4. "Solomon Redman, the third son, was born about 1669/70, and was married by Sep 27,1693 to Ann -------, on which date he and his wife acknowledged a deed of gift to his brother, John Redman (probably some claim he had from his father's will to the Redman land (O. B. 1690 - 98 pp. 104 and 111). Solomon Redman died in Westmoreland County in 1698 and his widow, Ann Redman, being appointed his administratrix June 29, 1698 (O. B. 1698 - 1705 p. 8a). She was still a widow June 7, 1699 (Richmond Co. O. B. 2, p. 414), but married soon afterwards, Thomas Simmons, and was dead by Feb 26, 1707/8, when Simmons was sued for the orphans, John, Solomon, and Henry Redman, by their uncle and guardian, John Redman (O. B. 1705-21, pp. 80a, 103a, and 107). Of these three sons, John Redman seems to have moved to St. Mary's County, Md. about 1720 with his uncle, John Redman, and to be identical with a John Redman who died there in 1736, Mentioning son John, daughter Sarah, and daughter Pricilla Hoskins (probably wife of Aaron Hoskins, who is mentioned in connection with the estate) ("Maryland Calendar of Wills", Vol VII, p. 191). Solomon Redman, son of Solomon Redman, died unmarried in Westmoreland County in 1719, his next of kin (i.e., brother, one would suppose), being his administrator (O. B. 1705-21, p. 369a; D. & W. No. 6, pp. 502 and 602). Henry Redman on Feb 25, 1718/19 summoned John Redman (either his uncle or his brother) to answer his petition regarding his inheritance, apparently being just of age, so born 1697/8 (O. B. 1705-21, p. 361a). There is no further trace of him in the records,"
