Ralph was born c. 1690 at "Rosegill," in Middlesex County, Virginia. He was a son of Ralph Wormeley and Elizabeth Armistead.
From the [Rosehill website link http://www.rosegill.com/Library/HistoricBuildings/History.html]: "Ralph Wormeley III, son of Ralph Wormeley II, died young but not before serving as Sheriff, Collector of Customs, and Vestryman at Christ Church."
His successor as master of Rosegill was his brother John, and then John's son, Ralph Wormeley IV, who married Sarah Berkeley of Barr' Elms.

My maiden name is Peggie Dune Congdon. There is an old family story regarding Ralph Wormeley. Stating that he was a Ship's Captain who brought imigrants to VIrginia. He brought a man named John Congdon born 1600-1646. The story states that he came one time to claim land, I assume somewhere near the Wormeley's. John returned Pembrokeshire, Wales. He brought his wife named Mary and his three sons. He and Mary died in 1646 in Virginia. We are assuming either killed by Indians or died from Malaria. The story says that the 3 sons were sent to live with Ralph Wormeley. Some say there was also a daughter named Mary. I don't know what happened to Mary. So I am searching whether I am a DNA match to the Wormeleys because of a rumor that Mary Married Captain Ralph. So I entered Congdon-1010 and entered Wormeley. And I was an 18 th degree match to Ralph and his documented wife. I don't know if this Mary had a relationship with him? There are no children from this relationship. But at this time a lot of Congdon researchers are denying that John was part of the Congdon family. If this match is accurate it would be a major discovery to our family. I don't mean to make any trouble for you family but I just can't believe this. No need to recognize this. Many of are ancestors were mistresses in Royal Families. I would just like to confirm or deny this. My main tree on Ancestry.com is The Congdon Family Tree. It is an open tree and you will be able to see all the documentation on John Congdon. I have done not research on Mary, but this is startling of true. Thanks, Anne Jelson aka Dune Anne Congdon. I don't use WIki Tree because someone went into may Congdon-1010 and entered inaccurate information.
