This is, of course, my husband's line; not mine. Currently teaching a genealogy class and what good luck that one of the fellows taking the class is also connected to the eluesive John. Most of us have been snared by John McGill's book where he gives John as a son of the second wife, Katherine Hone. No dates given and the assumption (I believe printed somewhere) that he "died young." * It appears that John was the son of Mary.
1688 April 2 (Middlesex Order Book 2 1680-1694, pg. 344) orphaned at age 13 [making him born in 1675; Maj. Robert md. Katherine Hone 28 Mar 1679], John chooses Peter Beverley as his guardian. He was in England, along with Peter (the eldest) as well as the other brothers Harry and Robert.
1690 Sep 1 (Middlesex Order Book 2, pg. 482) Robert Beverley (jr) is appointed John's guardian,
1693 Nov 13 (at age approx. 18) (Middlesex Order Book 2, pg. 657) 'Mr. John Beverley chooses Mr. William Elliott as his guardian." ** WHY at this age would John need a guardian?
Any comments? new information? etc.? If the above is correct then here would, I think, be the list of Major Robert Beverley's children by Mary:
Peter b. 1668 d. 1728
Robert (The Historian) b. 1673 d. 1722
JOHN b. 1675 (goes to NC)
Harry b. -- d. 1730
Mary b. -- m. 1694 Wm. Jones (K&Q co VA)
Leaving children by Katherine:
William bapt. 1680
Thomas
Christopher bapt. 1686
Catherine md. John Robinson
Hopefully, more pieces of the puzzle will be put together over the next several weeks.
