Biography

U.S. Southern Colonies Project logo
Mary (Dismukes) Yarbrough was a Virginia colonist.

Mary Dismukes was born about 1729. She is the daughter of James Dismukes.[1]

James Yarbrough married Mary Dismukes in Caroline County, Virginia.[1] James and Mary ran an Ordinary, a tavern, in Caroline County, Virginia. At a court held for Caroline County on the 10th day of September 1767, on the motion of James Yarbrough his ordinary license is renewed [and] bond acknowledged according to law.[2]

James Dismukes of St. Margaret's Parish, Caroline County set is hand and seal to his Last Will and Testament on the 21st day of January 1769 making a bequest to my daughter Mary, wife of James Yarbrough, one Negro woman named Dinah, Amey and a boy Gabriel her children and their increase also fifty pounds current money to be raised out of my estate.[1]

James Yarbrough died before the 11th of May 1777. On that date, by a motion of Mary Yarbrough, Administration was granted her on the Estate of Jas. Yarbrough Dec'd. Oath Administration Bond was acknowledged & c Abram Wilson, Robt. Tompkins, Jos. Tompkins & Wm. Higgins or any 3 were appointed appraisers.[3]

The 1782 Caroline County, Virginia Land Tax List alterations recorded William Almond from Mary Yarbrough 330 acres.[4] The 1784 Personal Property Tax List for Caroline County recorded:

Yarbrough, James - 1 male over 21 - 1 Negro under 16 - 2 horses - 6 cattle
Yarbrough, Joell - 1 male over 21 - 2 Negroes under 16 - 2 horses - 7 cattle[5]

Based on the fact Mary Yarbrough was recorded on the 1782 list, it appears that James and Joel were perhaps sons. Mary's deceased spouse, James Yarbrough, had a brother, Henry Yarbrough, in Caroline County, but he did not have a son named James or Joel.

Mary Yarbrough married William Almond after James died in Caroline County, Virginia. William Almond was taxed on 330 acres on the 1789 Land Tax up to the year 1793 when the Caroline County Land Tax alterations recorded that William Almond transferred 220 acres to Benjamin Yarbrough.[6]

Her son, Benj'm. Yarbrough, of Caroline County, Virginia set his hand and seal to his Last Will and Testament on the 10th day of December 1795 making a special bequest to my Mother one half of lands during her natural life, and at her decease to return to my brother Charles, and in case my Brother Charles should die without heir, two thirds to Mr. Almond's children which he had by my mother.[7] The will was recorded on the 2nd day of May 1800.

Mary Dismuke Yarbrough Almond died after May 1800. William Almond was taxed in Caroline County until 1807 when his land was transferred to Pleasant Winston.[8] Pleasant Winston's child was noted as Benjamin Yarbrough's nephew in his will.[7]

It appears that when this profile was merged, the records of two different persons named Mary Yarbrough were conflated. The Mary Yarbrough married to James Yarbrough in Caroline County is not the Mary Yarbrough that married James Caudill.

The Mary Yarbrough who married James Caudill in Lunenburg County Virginia has a WikiTree profile. All of the Caudill linked children to this profile as well as the information pertaining to Lunenburg County needs to be moved to that profile.

Does anyone have a source for her LNAB? Looks like the parents in profile have been disconnected, trees seem to be the only sources.

Yarborough-2 and Yarborough-116 appear to represent the same person because: Birth is 1 year difference and in same state, Husband is same (only dates differ) and death location is the same. Share a common son who I am also creating a merge for.

Prior to 1776 Colony of Virginia is the proper use for Virginia.

The 2 marriage reports look indicative of duplication between https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cadle-284

Yarborough-116 is a duplicate, although the 2nd marriage reported here looks questionable.

Clear duplicate, just spelling variation on the place name in Virginia.
