Biography

William came to Virginia as a child with his father, of the same name, sometime before 1638 when his father was noted to have left London.^[1]

He was probably married twice, the first to an unknown woman, the second to Jane, the widow of William Branch.^[2] William's children with Jane were Priscilla Farrar and Mary Cox. Any other children were with the first wife. Jane's 1709 will showed that she outlived all of her children except Mary.^[3]

Children

1. William Baugh III, d. <1683^[4][5][6]
2. Mary Baugh b. ~1662, m. John Cox
3. Priscilla Baugh b. ~1664, m. William Farrar

William Baugh Jr. was noted as a head right in a 16 Jan 1668 land patent of 577 acres by his father on the north side of the Appomaytox River (then Henrico, now Chesterfield).^[7]

William was dead by 1676 when two of his still minor children, Mary and Priscilla, were mentioned in the Henrico County Orphans Court Book.^[8]

Research Notes

7/11/1655 William attended a meeting at Charles City Co, VA

He lived on land called "The Great Stone", adjacent to Christopher Branch Sr. Clarify if this applies to him or his father.^[3][9]

The following children were originally found listed in this profile:

1. Thomas Baugh b. 1660^{[citation needed]}
2. James Baugh^{[citation needed]}
3. John Baugh^{[citation needed]}

I've found no evidence to support this and I suspect they were conflated from the father's children.
