Hi Jennifer,
I am not a descendant of Joseph Bloodworth, but in researching the origins of my Timothy Bloodworth, Sr., of VA and NC, I have taken notes on all Bloodworths, hoping to make some connection, or if not, to eliminate.
For Joseph, I have notes from "Records of Augusta Co., VA 1745-1800, Vol. 1" by Chalkley:
April 1797: Allison vs. Kennedy--special verdict. Mentions patent to William Russell in year 1740. William Russell owned land in Beverly Manor prior to 1740. In 1742, 27th May, William conveyed his lands to Joseph Bloodworth, Joseph's will dated 3d Oct 1743, wife Mary Bloodworth, devise to Mary Margaret Kennerley, wife of Thomas Kennerly. After Joseph's death, widow Mary married Michael Lawler. Thomas and Mary Margaret sold land to James Kennerly, but died before making deed and Thomas eldest son and heir; John Kennerly and Mary, his wife conveyed the land to James. James Kennerly died Jun 1797. Survey was made for Russell, 1739.
