The Va. Magazine of History and Biography, vol. 26, p. 381, from P.C.C. 60 Cope. He was a nephew of Lord Baltimore and was killed by the Indians near the falls of James River in the fall of 1610.
Captain William West arrived at Jamestown in June of 1610 with his relative—the governor, Lord De La Warre—and another kinsman, Sir Ferdinando Wainman. He was killed in fighting against elite Indian warriors near present-day Richmond in the fall or winter of 1610.

William West was born around 1585 in England although little is known about his life. He arrived at Jamestown in June 1610 as part of a military force commanded by his kinsman Thomas West, Lord De La Warr, the first captain general and governor of the colony. Several months later, De La Warr ordered some of his men to the falls of the James River—near present day Richmond—to repossess a fort (“Laware’s Fort”) abandoned by the English the year before. The fort was located in the heartland of the Powhatan chiefdom and fierce fighting between English soldiers and Indian warriors took place there. After West was killed he was brought back to Jamestown for burial, likely because of his kinship to Lord De La Warr.
DIFFERENT WILLIAM WEST William and Henry West arrived in 1656, with their family and settled in Isle of wight county,Virginia.

William Heath, who was born in 1611 in Surry, England, and was sponsored by John Browne of the Eastern Shore in 1650, was the founder of the Heath families of Surry, Sussex and Prince George Counties. His descendents migrated throughout Southside Virginia, into the Carolinas, and beyond. He also was a member of the Heath families on the Eastern Shore of Virginia and Maryland. It would seem that William arrived with the money needed to purchase land, as Johne Browne received the headrights for William. This means he did not pay his passage; Johne Browne either purchased the headrights from the ship’s captain or sponsored William’s transport.

Justinian Justice married the relic of John Browne around 1688, .
Let’s begin with John Ewen who was born 1569 in London, England. We see that his son William (1595-~1650) was an Immigrant and a merchant in James City Co. (Surry Co.). He was also a ship’s Captain, owing The George. The largest land owner in Surry in 1626 was Captain William Ewen. He had 1,000 acres planted and 400 acres not yet cleared. Another 1100 acres were patented in 1643. William Ewen/Evans abandoned these 1000a and went to Maryland, Anne Arundel Co., where he died. William’s grandson, John Evans, Sr. was an Indian trader. He was born 1649 in Charles City Co. VA and married Mary Rivers in 1670. Thomas Evans, Jr. was likewise an Indian trader of some fame…

HisAccording to Hugh B. Johnston in a report in 1961 in regard to the Stricklands of IOW… “There does not appear to be reliable documentary evidence of his presence in Isle of Wight county earlier than 1678.” reference is evidently the patent on Kingsale Swamp.
Mathew Strickland received 2 large patents… one for 902 acres near Kingsale Swamp in 1678… another several miles north on the Blackwater River for 1802 acres in 1680.
“Matthew STRICKLAND appears to have settled about 1678 in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, where he passed the rest of his life. On June 6, 1687, Matthew (M) STRICKLAND gave a power of attorney to John BROWN to execute a deed to William EVANS “by reason of my nonability to travel to court held for this County the 9th of this Instant June” in Isle of Wight County, witnessed by Richard (RB) BOOTH and Elizabeth (S) STRICKLAND.”
On June 6, 1687, Mathew (x) and Elizabeth (E) STRICKLAND of the Lower Parish deeded to William EVANS of the Upper Parish for 4,000 pounds of tobacco in cask 800 acres in the Lower Parish between the Main Swamp of King Sail and Beaver Dam Branch adjoining William COLLINS (from a tract of 902 acres patented by the said STRICKLAND on September 26, 1678, of which 102 acres had been leased to Thomas JONES for ninety-nine years on November 6, 1682, witnessed by John BROWN, Richard (RB) BOOTH, and Robert ® LAWRENCE.

The English immigrant John Browne/Brown died 1726 in IOW VA. His son, William Brown (Gentleman of Albemarle) married Martha Braswell and moved the family to Chowan NC where he died in 1718. Their daughter Martha married the Lumbee Indian William Strickland in NC. Their daughter Mary Anne Brown married Gideon Gibson ~1720 in NC. Recall that Gideon was a likely son of Hubbard Gibson. Gideon, along with his father, moved his family from VA to Halifax NC then Chowan NC and eventually to Craven SC where Gideon died in 1781. We follow the Brown family because there are both Gibson and Brown connections to Family Austin. The Brown connection is through Mary Austin daughter of Richard II. She first married the brother (or cousin) of Gentleman William Brown. As a widow Mary Austin Brown married the Quaker Thomas Vernon. The Thomas Vernon family settled in Cub Creek, Lunenburg VA where Mary died in 1777 at the Caldwell Settlement.

Richard Booth and John Brown had nearby property at Kingsale Swamp. This is just north of the Nansemond County line. The UPPER patent on the Blackwater River is where Thomas Boon was located. I have no idea WHEN he settled there?

This is about where I suppose John Browne Sr died perhaps in 1713 (per records of Moseley and Ludwell depositions of 1707 and 1710)…. and further suppose John Browne Jr may have lived. This reference may be the death of John Brown Jr in 1719. Hofmann, Chowan Precinct, 1696-1723, pg 243… again a court minutes entry… 20, Jan 1719.

Mary Baugh*, half- br. of Thomas Cocke, a son by Richard Cocke’s second wife, and “friend” of Major William Harris. It is possible that John Browne had issue by a previous wife. If him, as assumed, he had a nephew and namesake. 1.1.4.1. John Browne, m. Sarah …, who m. (2) John Woodson, the br. of *Robert Woodson (whose dau., Elizabeth, m.

John Price and Richard Cocke of Henrico would have known each other very well. They were both of Shropshire, and a number of the various branches of the Cocke family resided in Ludlow, and were, with the families of Harris and Price, parishioners of the Church of St Lawrence, the registers of which record the baptism of John Price: “Nov. 10, 1584: John, s. William Preece”: Muster of the inhabitants of the Corporation of Charles City, Feb. 24, 1624. Muster of John Price: John aged 40, ship Starr in May, 1620. Ann his wife aged 21, ship Francis Bonaventure in August, 1620. Mary, a child, 3 months’ (Hottens Original List, p. 203). Two years later, in 1626, John Price owned 100 ac. at or near the falls of James river. (Virginia Historical Magazine, ed. William G. Stanard, No. 15, p. 363). May 23, 1638. Patent granted Matthew Price as son and heir of John Price for 150 ac. on Turkey Island Creek in Henrico Co. ‘granted by patent to his late father John Price, now in possession of his mother, Ann Hallom, Widow – being due unto him in right of his father who had a patent granted Feb. 20, 1619’ (B. 1, p. 558). John Price m. (1) Elizabeth Matthews: ‘1613 May 30: John Prees & Elizabeth Matthews, widow‘; (2) Anne …, who m. (2) Robert Hallom. On May 6, 1638, a patent was issued to Anne Hallom, widow, and the heirs of Robert Hallom, dec’d for 1000 ac. in Henrico. Northeast by the woods, southwest by the river, northwest by Bremo & land of Mr. Richard Cocke, & southeast toward Turkey Island Creek adj. land of John Price. (See Land Office Patents No. 1, 1623-1643 (v.1 & 2), p. 413). Turkey Island became the plantation of William Randolph, “friend” of Major William Harris. Thomas Lewis*, aged 23 in 1623, step-brother of John Harris*, b. 1604 (father of Major William Harris), is most likely recorded here: Hannah Boyse, dau. and heir of Luke Boyse, late of Henrico, decd., patented in Nov., 1635, 300 ac. in Henrico adjoining land of her mother Alice Edlowe; due 50 ac. for her personal adventure and 50 ac. for the personal adventure of her father, and 200 ac. for transportation of servants, viz.: ‘Thomas Lewis*, Robert Hollum, Joseph Royall*, Edward Holland, and Oliver Allen’
Cocke was definitively settled in Virginia by 1632; the court recorded that he married Temperance Bailey, the widow of John Browne, on June 5, 1632, and settled Browne's estate with a fee of 6,397 pounds of tobacco Temperance was born about 1617 in Virginia, as is found living at Jordan's Journey in the household of Cecily Jordan in the 1624/25 Jamestown Muster. Temperance married between the age of 13 and 14 John Browne with whom she had children. Richard Cocke and Temperance had two known sons, Thomas and Richard. Also a daughter Elizabeth. Following the death of Temperance he married Mary Aston, a daughter of Walter Aston, with whom he had children including another son Richard, John, William, and Edward. His two sons named Richard have traditionally been differentiated as Richard the Elder and Richard the Younger.

Thomas Busby
Thomas's land was adjacent to Captain John Barker's land
Thomas Busby was an Indian Interpreter to the Crown
Thomas Busby and John Barker, Jr. were rebels that helped take possession of Bacon's castle (Bacon's rebellion). They later had to pay damages for the destruction at the home of Arthur Allen. The land was “on the south side of the western...head of upper Chippoakes CreekBeginning on Mr. Moseley line near the path that goes to Mr. Barkers North East byEast 61 chains thence again on the said Moseleys line North 115 chains and thence toJohn Barrowes. Thomas Busby had numerous dealings with Indians and was a paid interpreter for 'southern Indians in Middle Plantation'. [Middle Plantation was a general area around Williamsburg.] He was a lieutenant of militia and later captain of militia. He became embroiled in the Bacon's Rebellion of 1676. The rebellion was primarily against Governor Berkeley's lenient policy toward the Indians, especially after some frontier raids. Busby was charged with trespass when the rebels occupied the home of Arthur Allen during the rebellion. Busby was fined 12 deer skins in 1677 to pay for damages during the trespass.
He was Interpreter to the Southern Indians 1682-1691 (Journal of the House of Burgesses). Knew Joseph Kimball,SURRY COUNTY TITHABLES: 1693 Lawn's Creek Parish, upper Sunken Marsh Surry, Viriginia,Tho: & Jeffrey Busby, Jos: Kimball, Con Indian - 4

In the year 1688 John Poythress sued Thomas Busby for infringement on his land, land that had been part of the estate of David Peebles. He did this by virtue that he had married Christian Peebles, the daughter of Elizabeth Peebles. The suit went through several courts. On 5 August 1689 the suit was 'by consent let fall in court, the plaintiff averring that the land now claimed by him is within a Platt drawn by James Mine called "Bonnie cord, the Platt'.
William Peebles, his son William Peebles, and Henry Peebles were witnesses to the will of Thomas Busby of Wyanoke Parish. The will was not dated, but it was probated at Merchants Hope on 9 April 1723, by the widow and executrix, Mary Busby. Henry Peebles was name Executor, but did not serve.

Mr . Edward Smithwick Chowan NC.
The 25th we arrived at (Edward Mosley) Mr Moseleys, who seemed surprized at our coming having as he told us sent a Messenger to excuse his not meeting us at Mr Harrison’s and prevent our disappointment, here we stayed this day & the next in expectation of Edward Smethwick & Francis Tomms two witnesses wch Mr Moseley sent for, but they both made excuses that they were not able to come.
Richard Booth and John Browne were deposed in 1707 by Moseley… this was only one year before this map is credited with being composed. It is perhaps not a leap of logic on my part that Moseley may have been making the draft at the same time. Browne was again deposed in 1710 by Philip Ludwell of Virginia.
May 22,1671, Surry,Virginia. Indenture between JOHN BROWNE and John King for five years of lawful service. King to provide sufficient,clothing,washing,and lodging,ect., andteach him the trade of cooper(making wooden casks.) for five years. Wit: Edmunde Stephen,Edward Hutchinson. (See page 103.)

Another coincidence relates to the John Browne who accompanied Weyanoke Indian Tom Freeman in the canoe. John Browne was the son of Col. Tom Browne who owned over 1200 acres of land on the west bank of the Elizabeth River in Norfolk Cty., VA. John had a sister named Anne Browne. She married Richard Cording and had a son Thomas Cording. He had a daughter, Mary Cording who married William Freeman, Sr., the son of John Freeman of Norfolk, VA who is first shown there in 1673. John Freeman also owned land on the west bank of the Elizabeth River. Hence William married the Great-Niece of John Browne and, if related, would have been the Grandson or great nephew of Indian Tom Freeman.
The 1st of October was very cloudy, so that we could take no observation, and the sky threatening bad weather, we resolved to stay no longer, but to go back to the Maherine Indians to examine them again in Mr Moseley’s presence, & in our way thither we took the examination of John Brown. The 2nd The Maherine Indians not being at home we proceeded to the Nansemond Indian Town, in order to take the latitude at Nottoway Rivers mouth, & to examine those Indians; but when we came there, most of the Indians were gone to get Chincopens & it being a rainy day we could take no observation.

(See page 203.)
The petition in the name of citizens of Isle of Wight County VA was addressed to the King's Commissioner in Virginia seeking clemency for William West, who had been involved in the Bacon Rebellion, surrendered though still condemned to death by the Governor, Sir William Berkeley, but had absconded.Reference to it is in the published "Calendar of State Papers (Colonial)" of March 1677.The original petition is in the Public Record Office - there seem to be 86 names (though the Calendar says "about 70 persons") of which only 27 could sign their names - including our Hercules Calcott.
Later on 21 Nov that year the Privy Council in London heard another petition for William West's pardon, this time from his brother Henry, who had been forcefully transported back to England.I do not know the outcome - William's case was referred back to the new Governor, Lord Culpepper and Henry's by the Privy Council after further examination.
William West “a rebel absconding”, who took up arms against the Indians by whom his father was barbarously murdered, was taken prisoner, carried aboard a ship, from hence to prison and condemned to death, but has made his escape and, as yet, cannot be heard of.Pray for his life and the restitution of his estate to his wife and children.Signed by about 70 persons, mostly with their mark.”
Goodnes would extend his Pardon to his said Brother, who hath since made his Escape out of Prison, He taking the Oath of Obedience and giving Security for his future good Behaviour.[The petition regarding William West is referred to Lord Culpepper’s decision on his arrival in Virginia: the part regarding the petitioner himself Lord Culpepper is to examine in England and report his opinion thereon to his Majesty in Council.
