Mother: Amy "Amie" MCGRAW (MAGRAH) |
On Oct 10, 1709 he was Surety on a bond so he was an adult by
that time. By 1714 he was called Mr. signifying that he was a
man of standing. He acquired a large estate with considerable
wealth. His name appears in a number of legal instruments in
Essex Co. VA.
His will was witnessed by W. Roane, William Shelton, and John
Davis on Dec 3, 1746. Recorded in Essex Co. VA, BK 12, pg 225
and Probated Feb 19, 1750.
Bequeaths to:
John III - the plantation on which he now lives, 34 acres out of
the land I now live on and 250 acres out of the land I purchased
from Theodrich Bland.
Isaac, the plantation he now lives on and the land adjoining
laid off by Mr. Rogers as being part of the land I purchased
from Mr. Bland.
William, the plantation he now lives on and a parcel that is
laid off by Mr. Rogers that was purchased from Mr. Bland.
Richard, the plantation he now lives on and one half of the
stock of cattle, sheep, and hogs that is on his plantation.
Philip, my dwelling plantation with the appurtenances and all
land that I have not already given away.
Amie, one negro above seven years of age, one feather bed, two
cows and calves, three ewes and lambs, three dishes and half
dozen plates.
Winifret, one negro above seven years of age, one feather bed,
two cows and calves, three ewes and lambs, three dishes and a
half dozen plates. But in case either of my daughters, Amie or
Winifret, die without heirs, then their part will be divided
among my other daughters.
Catherine, my beloved wife, all the rest of my estate, real and
personal during her natural life and after her death to my
daughters, Mary and Catherine to be divided equally. Catherine:
The last name lacks proof; however all indications are that she
was Catherine Webb.

Mother: Elizabeth LEWIS |
WILLIAM WITHERINGTON, JR. and wife, SARAH 'SALLY' STANLEY lived
in East Feliciana Parish from about 1809 until their departure
for Conecuh County, AL sometime about 1820. Following the war,
his family lived briefly in Feliciana Parish, LA about
1818-1820, before joining other Witherington family members in
Conecuh County, AL.
When the Witheringtons originally came to Conecuh County from
Louisiana (about 1819-1820), they lived on the Sepulga River,
where they built and operated a ferry. This area was very swampy
and most unhealthy. After several of the family, which consisted
of three generations, had died of the "fevers" (probably malaria
or typhoid), the land and ferry were sold and more land
purchased on higher ground, some of it was the present site of
the Witherington Farm on Alabama Highway 83 (near Lyeffion)."
For those of you wishing further info on Gus Witherington's
life, contact Bill King ([email protected] ) or phone (281)
493-6767. I will be happy to prepare and mail a 15 page report
of the life, family, Civil War activities, murder and 'the
trial' of Augustus Levan Witherington to you. Gus' life would
make a very interesting movie or journal of 'Life in Southern
Arkansas' during the period 1850-1869.

Below is a transcription of a Photocopy of the Original Ensign
Commission of William Witherington, Jr. of Darlington District,
SC which was issued 7 July 1814 by the Governor of Mississippi.
William Witherington, Jr. was the father of John, James and
Augustus Levan Witherington whose families settled in Conecuh
County, Alabama and Union & Calhoun & Ouachita Counties,
Arkansas and whose descendants continue to be concentrated today
throughout the southern states. William Witherington Jr. was
the 4th Great Grandfather of William R. King, Jr. of Houston
who transcribed this commission from a photocopy of the original
document. June 26, 1999.
