Joshua Sr. was a prominent attorney on the Northern Neck area of
VA, that section of land that lies between the Potomac and the
Rappahannock Rivers. His name is often in the records of
Rappahannock, Stafford, Westmoreland and Richmond Counties, and
he was also an early Justice of Richmond County...he served in
the late 1600s with Alexander Doniphan and many years later
their several times grandchildren married. Joshua Sr. lived in
Richmond County where his will is on record, and he served as
church warden for St. Mary's White Chapel, in St. Mary's Parish.
(It is believed that this church was named for the White Chapel
in London.) His will was most unusual for it's time as it is
mainly concerned with providing the means of educating his
children. His daughter is included in the plan, with nothing to
differentiate her education from that of her brothers, surely
not the norm for 1703! In the will are also mentioned a
"daughter-in-law" Mary Griggs and a daughter, Elizabeth
Crawford. It is unknown who there girls were, although the term
daughter in law had a different meaning that the one of today,
and then referred to any girl considered to be legally a
daughter....thus, a step-daughter would be called a
daughter--in-law, a ward and an adopted child would be legally a
daughter.....therefore, there are various possibilities as to
who these girls were including, perhaps, that they were the
daughters of previous marriages of Joshua's wife, Katherine - we
just don't know. We do know that Katherine married again, after
Joshua's death, a James Butler of Aquia Creek, in Stafford
County, sometime before 1725.
Joshua and Katherine's children were;
Joshua Jr , mentioned earlier, who is my ancestor and married
Frances Harrison.
Samuel married Ann Butler; and they both died in Westmoreland
County - he in 1750 and she in 1763. Samuel left a will.
Hester, or Esther Davis, who married James Jones, of Hanover
Parish, King George County. James left a will."
