    The Jefferson Family of Pittsylvania County

    N. E. Clemenet

    William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Magazine, Vol. 23,
    No. 3. (Jan., 1915), pp. 181-182.

    Page 181.

    THE JEFFERSON FAMILY OF PITTSYLVANIA
    COUNTY.

    Communicated by Mrs. N. E. Clement, Chatham, Va.

    In number 3 of Vol, XXII., in an account of the Allen family,
    mention is made of he marriage of Elizabeth Allen to Field Jefferson,
    mother of Col. Peter Jefferson, of Albemarle. Field Jefferson's
    will, dated 1762, is filed at Mecklenburg Courthouse, and in it he
    names four sons, viz.: Thomas, Peter Field, George and John.

    George Jefferson patented large bodies of land in Pittsylvania
    County, a part of which he later sold to his brother Peter Feld.

    In the first lists of tithables taken in Pittsylvania County we
    find,
    "List of Tithables taken by George Jefferson in Pittsylvania
    County, Camden Parish, Year 1767."

    In list occurs following items:

    "George Jefferson (Mecklenburg)
    John Davis, Overseer, and negroes (to wit), Land
    Tithes Acres.
    Sam, Chance, Pompey, Phillis, Pal and Sary 7 8000

    In May, 1774, George Jefferson, of Lunenburg, sells to Peter
    Field Jefferson, of Mecklenburg, for L120, 409 acres on Turkey
    Cock Creek, Pittsylvania Co.

    For L60, 321 acres on Sailor's Creek, Pittsylvania Co.
    For L500, 1005 acres on Turkey Cock Creek, Pittsylvania.

    Again in 1776, he sells him 140 acres in Pittsylvania. Peter
    Field Jefferson must have soon after this removed to Pittsylvania
    County to live, for in 1779 we find him selling 380 acres for L350
    to Elisha Walker, and in the deed giving his place of residence as
    Pittsylvania County. There is no will of Peter Field Jefferson
    recorded in Pittsylvania, but there is one of his wife, Mrs.
    Elizabeth Jefferson, dated 1828. In it she mentions

    Page 182.

    following children: Sons Field Jefferson, John Jefferson, Samuel A.
    Jefferson, Alexander Jefferson, Archer Jefferson, dec'd, and Thomas
    Jefferson, dec'd; daughters Patsy Brewer and Judith Jefferson. From
    the marriage Register we find that on Feb. 27, 1806, Thomas Jefferson
    married Elizabeth Ball. Feb. 20, 1808, Alexander Jefferson married
    Elizabeth Smith. Alexander Jefferson's will is dated 1837 and
    probated 1838.

    A grandson of Alexander Jefferson, Col. David Alexander Jefferson, of Chatham, Virginia is a prominent member of his family to-day.
