Edmund Bayly was the security on the M.L.B. of John A. Bundick and Elizabeth Hannaford..⁷ He made a will on 11 March 1805 at Accomack Co, VA. John Abbott Bundick Junr left 200 acres of Dix land "near head of Metompkin on the Branches of Parkers Creek" to his son William, "if he ever returns to the County of Accomack" and if he should not return, to his other son, John S. Bundick. He also named a daughter as Mary Savage Bevans (Barnes?), who was the wife of George P. Barnes by 9 Apr 1806, when John Abbott Junr slaves were divided between his widow and children. Evidently, son William did not return, for John S. Bundick died testate by 2 May 1821 (Accomack District Court Wills, 1807-1830, p. 250) and mentioned "Lands on the Sea Side that fell to me by my Father's will.".³ John's will was probated on 24 June 1805 at Accomack Co, VA.^8,3 John died in 1805.⁸

     John Abbott Bundick Sr, who was named for his maternal grandfather, inherited 200 acres from his father George in 1764, "on the seaside where I now live." This tract was in the northern part of Parkers Neck, part of the first Richard Bundick patent of 1664, the 200 acres he gave his son Richard in 1677 and that Richard (II) left son George in 1731. John Abbott Bundick and his nephew, Richard Bundick, had been given the 100 acres called Robins Hole Swamp by his parents in 1755. John Abbott Bundick sold no land in his lifetime, except for 200 acres his son, John Abbott Bundick Junr (with wife Nancy and mother-in-law Mary Dix), deeded him on 22 Feb 1779 (Acc Co Deeds, 1777-1783, p. 113), land that he deeded back to his son the next day (Acc Co Deeds, 1777- 1783, p. 127). This was evidently a transaction to clear the title to the land. John Abbott Bundick made his will on 13 Jul 1780 and it was recorded 30 Mar 1784. His will was a long one. He left his home plantation of 200 acres to his son George Bundick. He left his swamp land and marsh to sons John Abbott Bundick and William Bundick (unmarried). He left his wife Bridget household furniture, "200 weight of meat" and livestock. He left furniture to other of his children, but son George seems to have inherited most of his personal property including livestock, a still and "1/3 my fishing boat." Negroes were to be divided "equally amongst all my children." He also named a grandson as John Bundick, son of George (Acc Co Wills, 1780-1784, p. 480). John Abbott Bundick's residual estate was divided among his heirs on 25 Nov 1785. As his widow, Bridget received 1/3, amounting to 104 pounds 14 shillings 1 1/4 pence. Sons John Bundick and William Bundick received a like amount, as did Thomas Lillaston, Parker Barnes, Archibald Barnes, and Richard Hickman. These four men had married John Abbott Bundick's four daughters. Son George Bundick was not named in this division (Acc Co Wills, 1784-1787, p. 269). An item of interest is that on 1 May 1783, the Acc Co Court made a list of persons who had supplied Revolutionary War forces or persons "Impressed for Continental Purposes." Among those listed are John A. Bundick Senr "for carting 25 bushels oats 17 miles" at a cost of 7 shillings 1 pence and John A. Bundick Junr for 150 bushels fodder at 4 shillings 4 pence (Acc Co Orders, 1780-1783, pp. 529 & 531). A complete transcription of the will of John Abbott Bundick Senr follows - In the name of God Amen, I, John Abbott Bundick of the County of Accomack being in good health of body and of sound and perfect memory I ordain this to be my last Will and Testament revoking all other Wills.

     This spelling of "Fedderman" comes from Meshack's Will.
      This Meshack Fedderman is mentioned in Whitelaw, p1313, in describing the ownership of tract A169. The original Patent in 1671 was to Morris Lisson for 400 acres. Two years later he and his wife Winifret sold it to Alexander Massey. In different generations of that family, the name was written as Massie, Mercy, Marcy, and in other variant spellings. Members of the Massey family, at one time or another, owned parts of A168, A169 and A170. It is all very much involved and this makes it extremely difficult to determine just what became of each individual piece. The following Massey notes could not be fitted into the story with any certainty, but they are reported in the hope that some day they will be helpful to a later searcher. In 1770 Robert and Mary Bayly sold their interest in the same land to Mary Wilkinson. In 1772 the Brittinghams again sold their third interest, this time to William Broadwater. In 1779 William and Mary Broadwater sold to Meshack Feddeman 76 acres, together with Elizabeth Nock's one-third life interest.
      This Meshack Feddeman is also mentioned in Whitelaw, p1327, in describing the ownership of tract A172. The original Patent in 1674 was to Ambrose White for 2,000 acres called Comfort's Quarter. In 1680 a new Patent was issued to John Tankred as having been deserted by White. Tankred married Sarah the daughter of William Smart, who was the brother of the John Smart who was the first husband of Tabitha Scarburgh. In 1687 John Tankred sold 200 acres to Thomas Gillett of Somerset. It was the north end of the tract next to A167 and was north of the last two pieces to be reported. In 1691 Thomas and Jane Gillett sold to John Dyer, who in 1721 left his whole estate jointly to his wife and John Fish; the will requested that "they live together," and there was to be no division between them, the survivor to take all. In 1736 John Fish sold to George Douglas, who in 1746 with his wife Tabitha sold to Meshack Feddiman. In 1793 Meshack left 100 acres to a grandson Henry and the balance to his son William. Nothing more was found on record about Henry, but in 1824 William Fiddeman (wife Henrietta) left to his sons James, Joseph and William, the latter to have the home part.
      Meshack Feddeman, spelled "Mishack Fiddeman," was listed in the Acc Co, VA, Personal Property Tax 1787 - List "A" with the following tithables: 4 blacks above the age of 16; 5 blacks under the age of 16; 3 horses, mares, colts or mules; and 12 cattle. His son, Isaiah, was listed next to him, which meant he was over the age of 21 and was either living with his father or was his neighbor. Meshack's father-in-law, Joseph Matthews, had lent Meshack some Negroes. In Joseph Matthew's Will, written on 3 Nov 1762 and probated 28 Mar 1764, recorded in Acc Co, VA, Wills 1761-1767, p264, he gave the Negroes to his daughter, Elizabeth Feddeman, Meshack's wife.
