Biography

Richard Randolph died in Bath, England, where he had gone due to bad health. [1]

of Curles (Neck) Plantation Henrico County.

Married Jane Bolling, a descendant of Pocahontas.

Grandfather of Congressman John Randolph of Roanoke.

Owner of huge plantations in Henrico Co. Va. along the James River.

Member of Virginia House of Burgesses, elected in 1740, Henrico Co. Va.

Treasurer of Virginia, 1736 - 1738.

Married Jane Bolling, great-grandaughter of Pocahontas.

In his will, which still exists today, he left over 40,000 acres to his sons Richard, Bret, Ryland, and John.

June 1, 1738, Captain James Straghan "entered the Upper District of the James River from London and Guinea... with 380 negroes consigned to Isham a nd Richard Randolph" aboard the ship 'Anna.' [2]

From: "Descendants of William Randolph of Turkey Island":

"Wyndham Robertson Says Richard Randolph, Sr. and Jane Bolling had nine ( 9) children, five boys and four girls. From various sources eight of these have been identified. One girl remained unidentified but now, Era Morgan Davis reports that Bodie, IX, page 194 identifies this girl as Frances."

Ethel Koger states:

"Richard Randolph and Jane Bolling were parents of four girls and five boys. Frances was the eldest born about 1722, she married (1) John Jones,was widowed and then married (2) Joel Halbert.

1737: At a vestry meeting held at Curl's Church for Henrico Parish, there were present Richard Randolph, John Redford, Bowler Cocke, John Bolling, William Fuller, John Povall, John Williamson, Robert Mosby, James Powell Cocke, and James Cocke. At this meeting a resolution passed to build a church after the model of Curl's Church, near Thomas Williamson's..

1739, 20 Dec: At a vestry meeting for Henrico Parish, it was agreed to build a church on the land of Hon. William Bird, Esq. Richard Randolph, Gentleman, was the contractor..

1740, 13 Oct: At a vestry meeting held for Henrico Parish, the following members were present: Richard Randolph, John Redford, Bowler Cocke, John Williamson, William Fuller, gentlemen, vestrymen, and the clerk and church wardens. Richard Randolph read a letter from Hon. William Byrd, Esq., dated 12 Oct, stating that he would be pleased to grant the church an acre to build their church upon, but "there are so many roads already thro' that land that the damage to me would be too great to have another of a mile cut through it. I should be very glad if you would please to think Richmond a proper place... if (the people) will agree to have it there, I will give them two of the best lots that are not taken up, and besides that give them any pine timber they can find on that side of Shockoe Creek, and wood for burning of bricks into the bargain." The vestry voted that the church should be built on the hill called Indian Town, on the south side of Bacon's Branch, at Richmond. This church became old St. John's Church on Church Hill.[3]

Needs Sources - Many of the sources cited in this profile are generic cites to Ancestry.com, or citations to the "Family Data Collection," Yates "U.S. and International Marriage Records" and similar compilation databases that are not considered reliable sources for pre-1700 profiles. For an explanation why, see this page. Some of the other source citations do not provide enough information to identify the source being relied up0on (such as "Database online. Record for Col Richard Randolph"). Please substitute citations to US Southern Colonies Project Reliable Sources containing enough information for other users to find the source for each of the claims made in this profile. The duplicated inline sources to unreliable or unidentifiable sources (which are probably remnants of a GEDCOM upload) can be deleted once a reliable source is cited for each claim.

It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Richard by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Richard:

There are two daughters named Elizabeth attached to his profile. Which one is correct (the other needs to be detached)?

Elizabeth in Richard's will is noted in this profile as being unmarried/under 21 (will dated 1747); both profiles for Elizabeth are born later than 1727. It's a shame that the abstract of Jane's 1767 will on her profile doesn't include her daughter Elizabeth's surname, but perhaps she was not yet married? Otherwise, it's odd that she's the only daughter named in the abstract.

Of the two profiles for Elizabeth attached as Richard & Jane's child, it seems that the Elizabeth m Meade is the one to keep, as she's included in the children listed by the sources cited (at least the ones I checked; see also Richard Randolph's Wikipedia article).

But perhaps the Elizabeth m Halbert one should not be detached but renamed as Frances? Richard's profile says their oldest daughter was Frances who married (2) Halbert. The profile for Elizabeth m Halbert does not have a reliable source (it cites a FamilySearch PID, but the URL is not valid).

Alternatively, perhaps the two profiles should be merged. Looking at the dates for the Elizabeth m Halbert profile - born 1728, died 1780 - it seems that the profile was intended to represent the daughter Elizabeth who was born after 1727 (to be under 21 at the time of her father's 1747 will) and died before 1780, when her husband (Meade) married his second wife (according to his profile: Richard Kidder Meade). WikiTree has their marriage as 1765, but since she is not named "Elizabeth Meade" in the abstract of her mother's will, it is likely that the marriage was after the will was written (in 1767). Also, WikiTree has Richard's birth as 1746, which makes a 1767 marriage more likely (especially since WikiTree has his wife Elizabeth born 1739).

sigh. Trying to find the FS PID cited for Elizabeth m Halbert profile, I found the PID for "Richard Kidder Meade", which links to a FindAGrave memorial that does not mention Elizabeth Randolph. See https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/11394351/richard-kidder-meade & wife https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/11394327/mary-fitzhugh-randolph_meade

The FS PID for Richard Kidder Meade - https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/9FP6-F2C - has Mary as his second wife, Elizabeth as his first. See https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LZXQ-XQF (for Elizabeth Randolph, daughter of Richard & Jane, born 1746, died 29 January 1774).

The FS tree has a second Elizabeth as daughter - https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/GDMQ-98C - but no sources and no information (the tree has multiple entries for Richard and Jane's children, but does not include a Frances; I also did not see a Halbert husband included).

Both my cousin Pete Colbert and I have GED matches with M144224. Pete has 14 matching segments for a total of 55.2 cM's, and I have 8 matching segments for a total of 31.8 cM's. Our family is also related to the Colbert slaves that lived on Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. Betty Brown (sister of Sally Hemings) had children: Burwell Colbert, Brown Colbert, Melinda Colbert, Robert Colbert, Erwin Colbert and Mary Colbert. They were born between 1783 and 1801. Richard A. Colbert. C-238. [email address removed] Thomas Jefferson Randolph m. Nancy Colbert, daughter of Burwell Colbert.

I think maybe the Richard Randolph reported as died in England (p 17) is this one?

Lynda,

There are 3 proposed mergers involving your Richard. Please take a look at each one and try to resolve them. Thanks, Bob Keniston, Arborist

Ed, it appears that "Richard" Randolph-9 and "Richard" Randolph-552 and "Richard" Randolph-928 and "Col John" Randolph-120

may be the same person? = Will you please take a look and see if this makes sense to you?
