Col. Bacon's old homestead at King's Creek, York County, descended under
Major Lewis Burwell's will, to his son James Burwell, who is buried there
(see Virginia Historical Society Papers, Vol. XI., for inscription on tomb).
James BURWELL married Mary ARMISTEAD
and had children, Captain Nathaniel Burwell and Lucy Burwell
(Mary ARMISTEAD married secondly Philip LIGHTFOOT).
Captain Nathaniel Bacon Burwell (Inventory L1669 rec. 1749)
married, and had James Burwell, who married Anne Jones (b. 1739, d 1779).
In 1790 Nathaniel Bacon Burwell, Jr., and Elizabeth, his wife, sold Kings Creek Plantation,
of 1800 acres, "on which he now lives and his late father, James Burwell lived".
A daughter of Capt. Nathaniel Bacon Burwell must have married John Reade, as his dau
Elizabeth, is called granddaughter in Mary Armistead LIGHTFOOT's will (proved 1775).
(William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Papers,
Vol 2, No.4 (Apr 1894), pp. 230-236.)
Was the above Philip Lightfoot connected to
Nancy Lightfoot who m. John Adair ?
Was Philip Lightfoot the Secretary to William Adair who was Colonial Secretary (based in London) of Virginia ?
It may have been an earlier Philip Lightfoot.
Thankyou.
