Biography

Brunswick County Virginia - Will Book 4

Will of John Batten Dobyns of St Andrews Parish- 26 October 1772 - 22 Mar 17
To my son John - 100 acres where I now live joining Mathews, Martin & Williams, 1 feather bed & furniture, on condition that he pay to my cousin Frances or Jessee Brumbelow £7.
To my son Moses - my plantation of 100 acres where I now live joining Stith & Atkinson, 1 bed & furniture & 1 mare, & he pay to his sister Anne £3.
To my son Charles - 100 acres between the lands given to my above named sons, 1 bed & furniture & he to pay his sister Rachel £3.
To my daughter Anne - the bed & furniture I now lie on.
To my daughter Rachel - 1 bed & furniture.
To my daughter Betty - £2.10.
The rest of my estate to be sold & divided among my following children: John, Moses & Charles.
Ex. My 2 sons John & Moses Dobyns & Hugh Williams
Wit. Mary (X) Wright, John Wright, Richard Littlepage.
Probate indicates that Moses Dobbins qualified with John Duggar his security, that John Dobbins & Hugh Williams refused to qualify; a further probate action took place the 26 May following.

Old genealogies place Batton Dobyns (m Frances Littlepage) as a son of the above John Batton Dobyns & Sarah. This will clearly proves they were not his parents.
