Research Notes

Ann was disconnected as a daughter of Mary Batte-10. Her father John Poythress (Poythress-80) is the son of Francis & Rebecca. The John Poythress who married Mary Batte is his cousin John, son of John & Christian. The wife of John (Poythress-80), son of Francis, was also Mary, but her maiden name is not known. ~Liz Shifflett, Aug. 28, 2015

"The will of John Poythress is undated but was probated in Prince George in May, 1724. ‘Jordans’ is written on the page in the record book. The will devised to son John the home plantation and 100 acres adjoining called Colebrooks, also tract on the main Blackwater Swamp; to son Francis, place called ‘brick chimneys’ binding on land left to son John and brother Thomas Poythress and Deep Bottom; son William Poythress 150 acres called Powells; wife Mary and daughters Elizabeth, Rebecca, and Ann. Robert Poythress and John Woodlief were appointed executors. The mention of the tract ‘Powells’ identifies him as the John Poythress, Jun., of the 1720 deed mentioned above and shows that the will was made after 1720. It has been frequently stated that Mary, the wife of this John Poythress was Mary Batte, d. of Henry Batte, d. 1702. This Mary Batte did in fact marry a John Poythress, but in a 1720 deed dividing some property her husband is listed as John Poythress, sen., while in the same year John Poythress, d. 1724, was styled as jun. to differentiate him from his first cousin, an older John Poythress. The children of John Poythress, d. 1724, are untraced. They were quite young at the time of their father’s death."[4]

So we have her born in 1700, dying in 1720, but with two husbands, and named in her father's 1724 will? I'm confused.

Poythress-132 and Poythress-79 appear to represent the same person because: Hi.. Are these two the same person? same father, mother unknown. same husband?

Thanks

Poythress-132 & Poythress-79 appear to be duplicate profiles, but I think which Gilliam she married needs to be resolved before they're merged to make sure. Closest I got to a potential source was a note on http://www.gilliamsofvirginia.org/Prince%20George/PrinceGeorge.html about Elizabeth Poythress marrying John Gilliam.
