Thanks to our cousin R.R. Abney for his extensive work on the Family of Dannett Abney. His work can be found in his publication, "Abney Book".
Dannett Abney, cooper and planter, baptized at St. Mary's, Leicester, England, 2-26-1659.
Christening record:
"England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975, index, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JMG3-7VS : Danett Abney, 26 Feb 1660; citing Saint Mary, Leicester, Leicester, England, reference; FHL microfilm 599,895."
Dannett, our "Gateway Ancestor of Virginia", came to America on the Frigate/Barque/Fluyt* 'Josiah' under Captain Sharpe about 1679 sailing in the company of his brother Paul; He was indentured to Mary Lee's uncle John Lee who had a land patent in Nansemond Co.VA; source Plantagenet Ancestry. Mary Lee did not marry Paul but married Dannett, apparently on his return trip to England.

Dannett Abney left a will dated 5 Feb 1732, proved 5 Mar 1733 at Charlottesville, VA., naming his wife, Mary Lee Abney.
Dannett was the son of George & Bathshua Stratton Abney.
Children: 1)Ursula Witt? 1693, 2)Dannett Jr. 1695, George 1697, 4)Paul 1699, 5)Abraham 1702, 6)Martha Spraggins 1705, 7)Bathshua Hill 1708, 8)Abner 1711, 9)Mary Barnard 1714,per R.R. Abney via John K. Brown web site.
Gateway ancestor of all American Abneys/Abners.
While he was living in Spotsylvania Co. at death he is thought to be buried in the First Rappahannock Church, Fredericksburg, VA. Dannett's grave is now covered by the church, an office building and an open air market per church records. In the late 1840s, it was decided to expand the size of the church. While the construction was going on some graves were probably removed/relocated/or build over. This may have occurred earlier (ca 1815) when the current Faulkner Hall was added to the lot.
+Thanks to Abney cousin Reba Johnson for this info.
The Spotsylvania land is partially underwater. His 400 acres is the present day Valentine Cove on Lake Anna. His son's , Dannett Jr., 381 acres is the present day Chewings Corner on Partlow Road.
Almost all of the Abney family history linked on Find-a-Grave is the result of the very diligent work of Raymond Robert Abney of the old CAA website & his new ABNEY BOOK**. His generous & proven work has helped many, many descendants of Dannett Abney find their "roots". We are grateful.
