• Mother: Elizabeth Wigginton¹ b. s 1697, d. 25 Apr 1752

• Last Edited: 11 May 2020

• Birth*: circa 1722; probably, Stafford Co., Virginia¹
• Marriage*: circa 1750; probably, Fairfax Co., Virginia; Principal=Winnifred (?)¹
• Will*: 22 July 1792; Loudoun Co., Virginia; Wife: Winnifred Smith. Sons: Nathaniel, Clator, Charles, Conner and S___. Daughters: Elizabeth Hamten, Nancy Jemima Ticha. Brother: George. Wit: William Cockerille, Mary Hoppoch, William LIttler (Book C., p. 301)
  Proved: 11 Feb 1793^1,2
• Death*: circa 1793; Loudoun Co., Virginia¹
• Probate*: 11 February 1793; Loudoun Co., Virginia¹
• Research Note*: 28 September 2018; from Glen Cress:
  Clator Sr settled in Cameron Parish in Loudoun County Virginia, where he was a farmer and overseer. He is noted in the Clerk's Fee Book of Loudoun County during the years 1762, 1764, and 1765. On 11 May 1762, Clator was appointed guardian of his brother Temple, and was bonded to turn over an estate to Temple Smith, orphan of Nathaniel Smith, when Temple became of age. On 1 June 1762, two females named Mary Rogers and Margaret Walker were charged with the felony of breaking open Clator's house and stealing pewter basons, plates, dish and a butter pot. He was named as a witness to a number of Loudoun County deeds from 1764 to 1774, and was listed on the Loudoun County tithables from 1765 to 1785. The Loudoun tithables lists show Clator owned several slaves, and one in particular named Chloe appeared on most of the lists during this period of time. In addition, his sons Nathaniel and Minor are noted as tithables in his household in 1770, and Clator Jr in 1773.
  His wife Winnifred (maiden name unknown) survived him by 12 years or more. In his will dated 22 July 1792 and recorded 11 February 1793 in Loudoun County, Clator named his wife Winifred, 8 children, and a brother George. Winifred died sometime after 1805.
  Clator Sr had 9 children: (1) Nathaniel, born about 1751 in Fairfax County Virginia; (2) Minor, born about 1753 in Fairfax County; (3) Elizabeth, born about 1755 in Fairfax County; (4) Clator Jr, my ancestor; (5) Jemina, born in Loudoun County; (6) Charles, born after 1776 in Loudoun County; (7) Connor, born after 1776 in Loudoun County; (8) unknown child; and (9) Nancy, born after 1776 in Loudoun County.

• Research Note: 11 May 2020; We need to look at Loudon and Fauquier tax records in the years around 1800 for the sons of Clator Smith Sr. One of them could have been the father of the Wm. S. Smith who died after 1850 in Heard Co. GA. Clator Smith Jr. witnessed his marriage, along with David Burge. David was the bride Sarah Burge's brother. Clator, if not this William's father, was probably his uncle.³

Thomas Burge

• Father: John Burge b. s 1630, d. 1688
• Mother: Mary (?) b. s 1632

• Last Edited: 30 Oct 2020

• Birth*: between 1675 and 1680
• Marriage*: say 1720; Principal=Mary (?)
• Death*: May 1751; Prince George Co., Virginia
• Research Note*: 28 September 2018; from Glen Cress:
  
  Thomas could be the same Thomas Burge who was christened 30 September 1676 in London England. He is said to have come from England to America with his father, John Burge .
  Thomas settled in the area now known as Petersburg in Prince George County, Virginia sometime in the early 1700's. Over a period of 27 years, he acquired at least 4 tracts of land: 196 acres at the fork of Joans Hole called Rich Neck on 11 April 1712; 196 acres on both sides of Jone Hole Swamp for 20 shillings granted by Alexander Spotwood on 16 December 1714; 126 acres on the north side of Joans Hole Swamp on 17 August 1720; and 20 acres on 22 September 1739. On 6 March 1726, he and his wife Mary (maiden name unknown) deeded 100 acres in Bristol Parish, Prince George County to his son John Burge for one shilling. An inventory of the estate of a William Burge was recorded by Thomas (B) Burge, Administrator on 13 June 1727 in Prince George County. This William may have been a younger brother of Thomas or other close relative.
  Thomas was married to Mary when he died. Mary was probably the second wife of Thomas and the mother of his younger children, including my ancestor Woody. Thomas "Burgh" left a will dated 20 May 1752, and presented at the courthouse of Prince George County on 14 April 1752 by his widow Mary. It was a rather long will in which he named his wife Mary, and 16 children including my ancestor "Woodde". To seven of his older children, he bequeathed 1 shilling sterling because he had already provided for them. To three of his younger sons, he bequeathed specific lands. Two sons, Woodde and Alexander were to receive lands if any of the other brothers died before they reached age 21. His wife Mary and ten children including Woodde were to divide the rest of his estate which included an unspecified number of Negroes.
  Thomas is said to have had 17 children; the 16 named in his will were: (1) John, married Frances; (2) Richard, born 1718, married Constant; (3) William, born 1720, died 1769 Amelia County Virginia; (4) Thomas Jr, born 31 May 1721, married Sarah Warren; (5) Elizabeth, married Thomas Rains; (6) Mary, married Dr Lewis Parham; (7) Lucy, married John Taylor; (8) James, born 1734, married Elizabeth Bonner; (9) Alexander, born 6 June 1746, married Mary Elizabeth; (10) Nathaniel, born 1739, married Elizabeth; (11) Woody, my ancestor; (12) Frederick M, born 5 November 1741, died 1814, married Frances Brown; (13) Martha, married James Pattillo; (14) Priscilla; (15) Amy; and (16) Sarah.

  Thomas appeared on a Charles City county militia roster in 1702, just before Prince George County was separated from Charles City Co. He was still a resident of Westover Parish in 1702. His unit was a troop of dragoons commanded by Joshua Wynne. Thomas married by 1700 when his oldest son was born. He married at least twice; both wives being named Mary.

  Thomas B. Burge is believed to be born between 1672 and 1676, son of John Burge. John arrived in VA unmarried. Between 1673-1677, John married Mary Hillman, a widow, but we're not sure if Mary was the mother of Thomas. Thomas possibly had a brother, William, who was born before 1696. On 13 Jun 1727, Thomas was named as administrator of the estate of William Burge. The estate was small, therefore William may have been young when he died and a younger brother of Thomas. Thomas had a son named William who was still living and named in his will written 1751.
  
  John died in VA, date unknown but his estate sale was held 9 May 1693.
  
  Thomas appeared on a Charles City Co. Militia Roster in 1702, just before Prince George Co. was separated from Charles City Co. He was still a resident of Westover Parish in 1702. His unit was a troop of dragoons (mounted infantry) commanded by Joshua Wynne, and names included on the roster were Parham, Raines, Vaughan, Hill and Tatum, family names later found in Prince George Co. and associated with the Burges. This was the only time Thomas appeared on any militia roster.
  
  Thomas married by 1700 when his oldest son was born. He married at least twice; his first and last wives being named Mary - maiden names unknown. When he died in later 1751 or early 1752, he had 17 living children - all named in his will. Mary was documented 31 May 1720, upon the birth of their son, Thomas Burge, Jr., in the Bristol Parish Registry. Between that date and 1746, the Parish register lists three other births to the couple; however, there were several others. The last time Mary's name appeared was when she presented her husband's will in court in April 1762.
  
  Thomas first appeared in land records in March 1712, where he was identified as a former tenant of Robert Munford on 430 acres 'near Jordans, between Deep Bottom and Curetons Bottom.' In April 1712, Thomas secured 196 acres of newly opened land on Jones Hole Swamp, a marshy creek a few miles south of Petersburg, VA - paying 20 shillings for the property. He was almost 40 years old at this time. Five years later, he purchased an adjoining 126 acres for 16 shillings. These properties were near the headwaters of Jones Hole Swamp, which is now a part of Dinwiddie County. In Sep 1739, Thomas acquired another 200 acres of land adjacent to his earlier grants and possibly more property. On March 6, 1726, Thomas and Mary leased 100 acres of land to their son, John Burge, for one year of Indian corn per year. This gift of land to John may indicate he was married at the time.
  
  Until he moved to Jones Hole Swamp, Thomas Burge was a member of the Westover Parish and attended Merchant's Hope Church, which still stands today. When he moved to Jones Hole Swamp, he changed his membership to the Bristol Parish.
  
  When Thomas died around 1750-51, he was survived by 17 living children, ranging from adults to one not yet six years old. He married Mary May (see #9) on 8 Jul 1697 at London, England; a Thomas Burge married Mary May on 8 Jul 1697; 1st wife, had 7 children of his 17 children. He married Mary _____ Burge II circa 1724? He died before 14 Apr 1752 at Prince George Co., VA; when will was probated.
  
  He lived at Bristol Par., Prince George Co., VA. He in 1638 a Richard Burge arrived in VA; in 1663 John, Thomas, Mary, and William Burge arrived in VA; and in 1678-79 a Thomas and Mary Burge arrived. Relationship of these to our family unknown between 1638 and 1679 at VA Colony. He left a will on 20 May 1752 at Prince George Co., VA; written 20 May 1751 and Mary presented his will to the court 14 Apr 1752, Prince George Co., VA. The wording of his will indicates he was married more than once. Marvin Burge states that it was common practice of the period for a man during his lifetime to settle most of his inheritance to his adult children, and upon his death, those adult children inherited only a nominal sum because they had already received their inheritance. Of Thomas' heirs, the first seven listed had already received their portion of his inheritance - the will allowed six of those one shilling more.
  
  LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THOMAS BURGE OF PRINCE GEORGE COUNTY, VA, WRITTEN 20 MAY 1751, PRESENTED TO PRINCE GEORGE COUNTY, VA COURT ON 14 APRIL 1752. (THIS WILL WAS FOUND IN AMELIA CO., VA)
  
  'IN THE NAME OF GOD, I, Thomas Burge of Bristol Parish in the County of Prince George, being sick and weak of body but sound mind and memory, thanks be to God for the same, but calling to mind the mortality of my body and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make and ordain this my last will and testament in manner and form following:
  
  First and principally I recommend my soul to almighty God that gave it and my body to be buried in a Christian like and decent manner by my executors, hereafter named and as touching by worldy estate wherewith it hath pleased almighty God to bless me within the life, I give and dispose of in the following manner.
  
  Imprimis: I give and bequeath to my son, John Burge, one shilling Sterling besides what I have formerly given him.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my son, Richard Burge, the use of fifty acres of land during his life joining the land whereupon he now lives while I have laid off to him already and after his decease I give the said fifty acres of land to William Burge, son of Richard Burge, to hold to him and his heirs forever.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my son, William Burge, one shilling Sterling beside what I have formerly given him.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my son, Thomas Burge, one shilling Sterling beside what I have formerly given him.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my daughter Elizabeth Rains, one shilling Sterling beside what I have formerly given her.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my daughter, Mary Parham, one shilling Sterling beside what I have formerly given her.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my daughter, Lucy Taylor, one shilling Sterling beside what I have formerly given her.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my son, James Burge, the Plantation whereon I now live and the land joining the same, beginning at a corner hickory, from thence to a hickory in Bonner's line, thence down Bonner's line to Jones Hole Swamp, only I reserve to my loving wife, Mary Burge, the thirds of the same during her natural life and after her decease, I give the said land and Plantation to my son, James Burge, and his heirs forever. But if my son, James, should die before he comes to the age of twenty-one years old, then I give the said land and Plantation to my son, Alexander and his heirs forever.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my son, Nathanile Burge, one tract or parcel of land being at the same corner hickory where my son, James Burge begun, running along Bonner's line to my Cart Road, to a corner, thence down a line to a branch of Warwick Swamp, from thence down a line across a level to a branch of Jones Hole Swamp, running down the same to the old line. I give the said land to my said son Nathaniel Burge, and to his heirs forever. But, if my son, Nathaniel should die before he comes to the age of twenty-one years old, then I give the said land to my son, Woodde, and his heirs forever.
  
  Item: I give and bequeath to my son, Frederick Burge, all the remaining part of my land to hold to him and his heirs forever. But, if my son, Frederick Burge, should die before he comes to the age of twenty-one years old, then my desire is that the land given him be equally divided between my two younger sons, Alexander Burge and Woodde Burge, and to hold to them and their heirs forever.
  
  All the rest of my estate of Negroes and all other things of what nature and quality whatsoever, my will and desire is that it be equally divided between my loving wife, Mary Burge and my children, hereafter named: Martha Pittillo, Priscilla Burge, James Burge, Nathaniel Burge, Amey Burge, Martha Burge, Frederick Burge, Woodde Burge, Alexander Burge and Sarah Burge.
  
  I do constitute, make and ordain my loving wife, Mary Burge and John Chambliss, executors of this my last will and testament and I do hereby utterly disallow, revoke and disannul all other former testaments confirming this and no other to be my last will and testament.' In witness -
  
  It remains a mystery to family researchers why Thomas did not provide for guardianship for his eight minor children upon his death. Mary and her younger children possibly shared the plantation with James. The two younger sons, Woodde and Alexander did not inherit land and later moved westwardly.³

  There is a record of a Thomas Burge being born to John Burge and his wife Mary in 1675 – christened September 30, 1675, London, England. A record has also been found of a Thomas Burge being married to a Mary May on July 8, 1697, in London, All Hallows, London Wall, England. These two Thomases are believed to be the same
  
  A Thomas Burge , as well as a John Burge , a Mary Burge and a William Burge arrived in the Virginia Colony in 1663. A Thomas and a Mary Burge also arrived in 1678 and 1679. A Richard Burge arrived in 1638.
  
  Thomas possibly had a brother, William, who was born before 1696. On 13 Jun 1727, Thomas was named as administrator of the estate of William Burge .
