​​WILLIAM SIZEMORE, ANCIENT PLANTER

BORN: Abt 1600 DIED: Bet 1650-1675 VA FATHER: Unknown MOTHER: Unknown WIFE: Martha MARRIED: ABT 1622 VA DESCENDING SON: Samuel Sizemore b. Abt 1625

"Ancient planter" is a term applied to colonists who migrated to the Plantation of Virginia "before the coming away of Sir Thomas Dale" in 1616, and continued there for at least three years. These colonists received the first land grants in Virginia. Those who paid their own passage to Virginia received a "first dividend" of 100 acres, free of quit-rent. Those who were brought at the Company's expense also received 100 acres, subject to an annual rent of one shilling per 50 acres. Planters who arrived later than 1616 were entitled to a lesser grant of 50 acres.

According to a letter from John Rolfe dated January 1619/20 "All the Ancient Planters being sett free have chosen places for their dividends according to the Comyssion. Which giveth all greate content, for now knowing their owne landes, they strive and are prepared to build houses & to clear their groundes ready to plant, which giveth great encouragement and the greatest hope to make the Colony florrish that ever yet happened to them."

Settlers flocked to Virginia because of the headright system, and on 18 Jul 1620, Martha Sizemore stated in court that she had paid for her passage to Virginia and wanted to be reimbursed accordingly. William and Martha Sizemore were both living in Virginia prior to Rev. Alexander Whitaker's death in the spring of 1616, and as Martha stated in court, "lived at Mr. Whitaker's house both before and at the time of his death." Therefore, both William and Martha Sizemore fall into the category of "Ancient Planters."

"When Captain John Martin went to England with [Sir Thomas] Dale in the spring of 1616, he left Henry Coltman to plant his ground at Charles City in corn and tobacco, under the supervision of his friend Rev. Alexander Whitaker of Henrico, who sent his man, John Flood, to aid Coltman. Whitaker was drowned in March, 1617, dying intestate. When Martin returned in May he found no corn; he held Governor Yeardley responsible for his loss, and this was the beginning of a long and bitter dissension between them. Martin sued Yeardley, and some of the depositions in the case have been preserved. The governor deposed that he had turned over Whitaker's property to his servant Thomas Hobson, "who was as his son and child kept by him in his life time," and that Hobson had used the corn in feeding himself, Jarrett Hollock, John Flood, and one Ruben, the other servants of Mr. Whitaker. Martha Sizemoure, who lived at Rev. Alexander Whitaker's house both before and at the time of his death, knew nothing of his owing Martin any corn, and stated that Whitaker had been obliged to buy corn for himself from Thomas Dowse." Source: The first republic in America: an account of the origin of this Nation By Alexander Brown, Pg. 241.

The above Jamestown court record shows Martha Sizemore had been living at the home of Rev. Alexander Whitaker prior to his death in March 1617, it can only be assumed that her husband William lived there as well. Although her duties in Rev. Whitaker's household is unknown, she was likely a cook or housekeeper and was definitely present during the time Pocahontas was living there. Henrico was the second oldest settlement in Virginia next to Jamestown, having been "planted" or populated by settlers in 1611 by Sir Thomas Dale and Rev. Alexander Whitaker. Whitaker, a graduate of Cambridge, was seated in England in "the North Country" where he was held in high esteem. He was a man of great wealth left to him by his parents and excellent prospects of promotion, but instead of living a life using the means afforded to him, his heart was drawn to Virginia where he felt the need for his services to be far greater. After his death, he became known as the "Apostle of Virginia" by those who came to know and love him.

​1622-1629 Minutes of The Council & General Court - Mrs Elizabeth Hamer, sworne & Examined, sayeth yt Capt Martin told her that beinge in london and goinge through new gate market Some other gentlemen beinge wth him, Martha Sysmoure came unto him and tooke acquaintance of him, The gentl that were with him asked him is this one of your Virginia whxxes? Capt Martin asked them, why, they said because she ran so often tymes into Englande from Virginia and more she canot saye. And after this at another tyme Capt' Martyn came to this Exam't and told her yt some body had reported to Martha Sysmore yt he said she was a whxxe to who this examinate answered, no you did not say soe, but you saide yet some ells did say soe to you which he confest to be trew. Source: The Virginia magazine of history and biography, Vol. 23 By Virginia Historical Society, Pg. 135-136. [It appears that Capt Martin held ill feelings toward Martha Sizemore after she gave testimony that she knew nothing of Whitaker owing him any corn.]

Around 1619 Capt. Francis West, brother of the late Thomas West, Lord de la Warre, laid out a plantation known collectively as Westover consisting of 500 acres along the Appomattox River upon old Weyanock territory. This plantation encompassed the property owned by himself and his two surviving brothers, Capt. Nathaniel West and John West. Demographic records compiled in March 1620 showed no colonists seated at Westover, but by March 22, 1622, the date of the Indian attack, two people were killed at each of the West brothers' plantations. Lt. John Gibbs' dividend, part of the same community, also came under attack. The nearby plantations of Owen Macar and Richard Owen appear to have been part of Westover. In May 1625 Capt. Francis West was credited with 500 acres that were "planted." This raises the possibility that he reoccupied his property after the Indian assault, although his brothers may have failed to do so." "On February 16, 1624, William Sizemore (Sismore, Seymore, Sysmore) and his wife, Martha, were living on West and Shirley Hundred Island (41). In May 1625 he was credited with 100 acres on the north side of the Appomattox." Source: Virginia immigrants and adventurers, 1607-1635: a biographical dictionary By Martha W. McCartney, pg. 63.

​Those "planted" at Westover between March 1620 and March 22, 1622:

1. William Sizemore [100 acres] granted 100 acreson the north side of the Appomattox, where they were seated prior to March 22, 1622. Between 1636 and 1642 there are numerous patents referring to a "Sizemore's Creek" boundary line which is a reference to this property. Source: The Complete Book of Emigrants: 1607-1660 by Peter Wilson Coldham; and 2) Virginia immigrants and adventurers 1607-1635: a biographical dictionary By Martha W. McCartney. 2. William Farrar [100 acres] a Virginia Company shareholder who at the time of the Indian attack was occupying a plantation on the east side of the Appomattox River, a little inland from Bermuda Hundred. It is believed he took refuge at Jordan's Journey and later decided to stay in that area. 3. Henry Milward [250 acres] Henry and his family were killed near Bermuda Hundred during the 22 Mar 1622 Indian attack. 4. Charles Magnor [650 acres] A grant to William Hayward for 780 acres on 16 Oct 1642 mentions the land is bounded on south by Appamattucke Towne & N. upon Swift Cr. "The residue being marsh before the plantation of sd. Hayward & Commonly called the Conjurers Feild, beg. where land of Mr. John Baugh endeth. Swift Cr. parts this from land formerly belonging to Samuell Sharp. 650 acs. due by deed of sale from Charles Magnor, Feb. 8, 1634, to whom it was granted Dec. 1, 1620." Both Samuel Sharp and Charles Magner are on the Muster at Peirsey's Hundred which states Magner was age 16 and arrived 1623 [he actually arrived about 1618] on the George. 5. Samuell Sharpe [100 acres] Muster taken Jan 1624 at Pierseys Hundred states Samuel Sharpe arrived on the Seaventure in 1609. 6. Humphrey Kent [50 acres] Jan 1624 Muster states he arrived on the George in 1619. Another document states his mother had been living in Virginia prior to his arrival. 7. Mr. Abraham Persey [1150 acres] was a Virginia Company stockholder arriving in 1616 aboard the Susan which was the 1st Magazine Ship sent to the Colony. His wife, Elizabeth [Draper] Persey and two daughters, Elizabeth and Mary, arrived 1616 on the Southampton. He later took another trip to England and returned on the George, the 2nd magazine ship sent to the Colony. In 1619, he made a trading visit to Newfoundland on the George to exchange tobacco for fish. 8. Richard Symons [100 acres] In May 1625 Richard Simmons was credited with 100 acres of land upon the Appomattox River. 9. Arthur Antonye [150 acres] He is named in a patent dated 10 Jun 1639, which shows he owned 150 acres on the Appomattox prior to 1625. 10. William Dowglas [250 acres] He was a servant in the Elizabeth City household of Jonas Stockton prior to being granted 250 acres upon the Appomattox River.

Most of the Virginia records which existed prior to 1677 have been lost or destroyed, and this is never more apparent then during the search for documents for Samuel Sizemore. To make matters worse, there are a number of ways one could possibly misspell Sizemore. I have seen Seizmore, Sisemore, Sismore, Sisemoure, Sismoure, Sisemoore, Sismoore, Sisemoor, Sismoor, Sysemore, Sysmore, Sysmor, Sysmoor, Sysmoore, Cysemore, Cysmore, Cysmor, Cysmoor, Cysmoore, Sizemor, Sizemoore, Sizemour, Sizemoure.... well you get the point.

The Virginia magazine of history and biography, Volume 4, by Virginia Historical Society states, "Att a court held at Merchants Hope" on Powell's Creek. Merchant's Hope Plantation was located west of Flowerdew Hundred on the south shore of the James River near the mouth of Powell's Creek in a portion of Charles City County which was divided to form Prince George County in 1703. It was located on the former site of Powellbrooke Plantation, whose owner Captain Nathaniel Powell, one of the original 1607 colonists, his wife, and ten others were killed during the Indian Massacres of 1622.

On 10 Jun 1654 in Surry Co., Virginia, Thomas Rolfe [son of John Rolfe and Pocahontas] deeded 150 acres of land between Smith's Fort Old Field and the Devil's Woodyard Swamp and all houses, etc. to William Corker, being due unto the said Thomas Rolfe by gift from the Indian King [Chief Powhatan his grandfather]. Witnesses were James Mason and Edmund Howell. On backside assigned by William Corker to William Barber 22 Aug 1654. Witnesses were Richard Webster and Samuel Suklemoe (Sizemore).

In July 1678 a horse belonging to Abraham Womack and ridden by Thomas Cocke was to run against a horse belonging to Richard Ligon and ridden by Joseph Tanner. Joseph was then a servant of Thomas Chamberlain, the husband of Elizabeth Stratton. The winner was to receive 300 pounds of tobacco. Abram Childers was the starter. The horses rushed from the starting line but Cocke’s horse shied from the track after running four or five lengths. Cocke quickly reined him in and cried out, “This is not a fair start.” Thomas Chamberlain shouted to Joseph Tanner to stop but he did not. When Joseph returned, he declared that the race began fairly and he had won. Childers agreed but the parties took the matter to court. In 1708 Thomas Chamberlain sued Richard Ligon regarding the outcome of a race. The loser was to pay the other forty shillings and pay for the gallon of rum provided for the enjoyment of the spectators. Chamberlain’s horse had won. Richard Lygon was called the “Indian Fighter,” he died by 2 March 1723/4 when his executor and son, Matthew Ligon, presented his now-lost will. Abraham Womack Sr., Robert Elam, and John Knibb appraised Richard Lygon’s estate for £30.3.3.

From the above court records, and additional records below, we know that Evan Owen was the father of Margery Owen who married William Sizemore b. c1680 and Richard Holmes and the widow Lockett were involved in caring for Margery during her infancy and early childhood. Also, Major Richard Chamberlain is mentioned as a witness to the will of Richard Holmes as was Margery after her marriage to William Sizemore. This shows a continuous connection between William and Martha Sizemore of early Jamestown and William and Margery Sizemore of Henrico County.

The Virginia 1704 Quit Rent Rolls are a list of colonial land owners who were required to pay to the King an annual "quit rent" of one shilling for every fifty acres. Sheriffs of the various counties listed the amount each land owner owned for the Receiver-General who collected the quit rents and passed the lists, with his accounts, on to the English government. These lists were sent annually to England, but sadly only the 1704 quit rent survived. The Library of Congress has a copy of the original document which is housed in the British Public Record Office. Unfortunately, William Sizemore was not listed on the 1704 Virginia Quit Rent Rolls. With a number of individuals absent from the list who were known to have lived in colonial Virginia, it is supposed that their names were written on the missing parts of the list. It is also possible that he was deceased prior to 1704 and his widow remarried, and the name on the Quit Rent Rolls was the head of the household at that time.

The Sizemore lineage for Edward Sizemore has been adequately proven by various documentation. Using the Eastern Cherokee Applications as a starting point, Ron Blevins, a descendant of "Old Indian Ned" through his 3rd great grandmother Lydia (Sizemore) Blevins, wrote the following: "Most of the ECA's that appear to be accurate were filed by descendants of those Sizemores who moved about 1835 from Ashe Co, NC to what was to become Wyoming Co, WV. Very possibly there was a family Bible or other record that went with them to WV. None of Ned's descendants were on the Cherokee census lists, and none were entitled to benefits, and of course none were approved." These ECA's believe George Sizemore to be the son of Edward "Old Ned" Sizemore, and a few recall hearing his claim to be of Cherokee descent.

Ron Blevins provided information for most of the information regarding Edward Sizemore. He is first found in Lunenburg Co., VA in 1746 when he purchased 400 acres of land, "below the little Rock House above the mouth of Little Polecat Creek on the south side of Banister River," in what is now Halifax Co., VA. In 1748, he along with William Jackson and Thomas Greenwood, witnessed the will of Henry Green. There is mention of him in Lunenburg was on the 1749 tax list.

EDWARD "NED" SIZEMORE III

BIRTH: c1740 Lunenburg Co., VA [1/2 Shawano-Metis] DEATH: Oct 1780 Ashe Co., NC FATHER: Edward "Ned" Sizemore II MOTHER: Mary Spears WIFE: Elizabeth Jackson WIFE'S FATHER: William Jackson WIFE'S MOTHER: Unknown MARRIED: c1759 DESCENDING SON: Edward "Ned" Sizemore IV (1764 Lunenburg Co., VA-)

Children: 1. Edward "Ned" Sizemore IV (c1764 Lunenburg Co., VA-) m. Elizabeth Hart (c1765 VA-)

The Revolutionary War started April 19, 1775 and ended September 3, 1783. this Edward Sizemore, born about 1740, is about the right age to have been involved in the Revolutionary War and was likely a Loyalist. The Loyalists were American colonists who remained loyal to the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War. At the time they were often called Tories, Royalists, or King's Men; Patriots called them "persons inimical to the liberties of America".

In 1774, Edward Sizemore appears in Tryon Co., NC, involved in a court case settlement in which a sum of money against George Sizemore was recovered and Edward Sizemore was acquitted. "William Gilbert came into open court and releases and acquits Edward Sizemore of the above sum recovered against George Sizemore." That same year In Surry Co., NC, Edward Sizemore and James Hart are listed in the same household as taxables. In 1776, Edward Sizemore signs an oath of allegiance to the United States in Botetourt Co., VA. Edward Sizemore was the only Sizemore listed in Col. Cleveland's District on the 1774 tax list.

The Draper Manuscript contains several references to the Oct. 1780 hanging of "the Troy Sizemore" by Col. Benjamin Cleveland in Wilkesboro, NC (part of Surry Co. in 1774). Col. Cleveland being captured by a party of Tories in what is now Ashe County. They were determined to execute him, but first needed a permit from him to pass towards Salisbury before the execution. Cleveland delayed the matter expecting his friends to rescue him at any moment. Finally he was given just five minutes longer and his friends appeared and killed or captured most of the party. A Tory named Sizemore escaped, but was captured by Cleveland in Wilkes Co. and hung near the mouth of a small stream called Hughes Creek, a mile below Cleveland's residence. James Gwyn, a boy about 15, was Major Hickerson's informant, dropping corn behind a Negro boy plowing. Cleveland took the plow line from the boy and used it to hang Sizemore. Cleveland was in tears while adjusting the rope, and said he regretted it, but could not do otherwise. In 1781, South Carolina Loyalists pay records include Edward, Owen and George Sizemore.

Sheba Sizemore and her husband Jacob Brinegar, Jr. joined the Edward B. Sizemore caravan to present day Wyoming, West Virginia in 1835 and settled on the "Sizemore Branch" of Bearhole. A farmer, shrewd trader and businessman, Jacob acquired several tracts of land. In December, 1853, Sheba disappeared. A search party led by John Logan Cook, Justice of the Peace, found her bruised body buried in a shallow grave on Byrd Mountain.

Indicted for the murder, Jacob was tried twice in Wyoming County and convicted of manslaughter. Evermont Ward, his attorney, secured a change of venue to another county and in the meantime, he married Parthenia Mitchell in 1854. Jacob was free, but his life was far from satisfactory. His friends and children of the first marriage deserted him, his neighbors had no respect for him and avoided him. Expense of his trials and lawyers' fees consumed all his property. He was released on bond several times, and by April 2, 1860, he was one again indicted for murder. At his hearing, he entered a plea of not guilty, and the case was continued with him being released once again on $750 bail. It dragged along without being heard until Judge Samuels dismissed it in September 1865. ​

"Marriages of Wyoming Co, WV...", Vol 1, Haga, page 20. Albert Cline, age 57, widowed, born in Montgomery Co, VA, son of Michael and Peggy, married on 28 Aug 1856 Peggy Cline, age 49, a widow, born in Wilkes Co, NC, daughter of Robert A. and Martha Arms. Therefore, his wife's first name has been verified, but not her last. Robert A. Arms is found on the 1800 Grayson County, Virginia tax list located at www.newrivernotes.com and is taxed as a male, over 21 with, owning one horse. He is listed with familiar families from Halifax County, VA: Tanner, Russell, Powell, Osborne, Jackson, Howell, Hart, Green, Evans, Blevins, to name just a few. Some of these names go back to the Henrico settlement, and even to early Jamestown.

Reference book of Wyoming County history by Mary Keller Bowman, states the following: Rev. "Little John" Sizemore married Jennie Arms lived on Pinnacle Creek and several years later lived at the mouth of Cedar Creek. He was closely associated with Elder John S. Mullens, who settled at New Richmond, Wyoming Co., VA [later WV] between 1835-1840. Together they organized the Pinnacle Fork Baptist Church.

There is a story at www.newrivernotes.com about Martha Arms, sister of Virginia "Jennie" Arms spouse of Rev. John Sizemore. According to a great grandson in Tennessee, Jonathan [Osborne] raised 18 sons and numerous daughters. Children of Jonathan Osborne and Nancy Howell: William b. 1784 m. Mary; Jacob; Rachel m. Elisha Blevins; David; Seth; Elias m. Sarah Sizemore (daughter of George Sizemore [Virginia Indian descendant] and Anna Hart) -- Elias' son Solomon m. Martha "Seaberry" Arms, a mixed race Cherokee woman who fled to West Virginia to avoid the Trail of Tears; Joshua; Josiah; Johannah; Sarah; Andrew; Nancy.

Solomon Osborne, son of Elias and Sally Ann (Sizemore) Osborne, was born in NC in 1803 and died in Clay Co., WV in 1880. He and his wife Seaberry Arms were living in North Carolina and left sometime before 1845 and were married in Tazewell Co., VA. Due to the fact that Seaberry was a Cherokee and Solomon was three quarters Indian, they may have been married in Indian rites in NC.

In 1838, U.S. troops were pushing the Cherokees from their ancestral lands in the hills of western North Carolina. They were to be relocated to Oklahoma to make room for white settlers. By then, Solomon and Seaberry, were fleeing north, choosing the northern Cherokee hunting ground over the dusty West. In all, about 1,000 Cherokees escaped the Trail of Tears. Today, their descendants are known as the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, which is headquartered in Cherokee, NC.

Solomon and Seaberry, (Seaberry took the name Martha Arms), first settled in Tazewell, VA, where their cabin still stands and is on the National Historic Register. However, the constant fear of being found out by the government and its anti-Indian policies kept them on the move. They next settled in what is now Wyoming Co., WV, and finally Nicholas Co., WV, where Seaberry died in 1866.
