     William was born in 1845 at Accomack Co, VA. The 1850 census puts his birth at 1839 and the 1860 census puts it at 1842 and his tombstone shows 1845..¹ He was the son of Matilda Bundick. William was listed with another family in the cenus of in 1850 at St. George Parish, Acc Co, VA. He may have been the "Thos Bundick" age 11 in HH#632, headed by Nath'l Kellam, age 62 and a farmer with real estate valued at $2,000. This family was listed next to Samuel Bundick, age 45 and a laborer. This Thomas may have been a son of Samuel's, but no other proof of Samuel having a son named Thomas has been found..² William was listed with another family in the cenus of in 1860 at St. George Parish, Acc Co, VA. He was age 18, living in HH#558 with Joshua Parker, age 67 and a farmer. His mother Matilda Bundick, age 30, was also in this household. This is the only William Bundick in the 1860 Acc Co who has not been connected to some other line. Further evidence indicating this is that his daughter Susie, age 2 in 1870 census, and called Susan, age 12 in 1880 census, was listed as Matilda S.

     Although Evva was born in Wachapreague, VA, at her grandmother's house, she was raised on a farm near Hollies Church, Keller, VA. When she was still a child the family moved to another house near Hollies Church. She attended elementary school at Keller, VA, and was a member of the Hollies Baptist Church. Mr. Brooks Mapp was her teacher and awarded her a gold medal for scholarship. She took a written examination given by the Accomack County School Board to become qualified to be an elementary school teacher. She moved to Saxis, VA, to teach the third grade. When she first came to Saxis she lived with Severn E. Miles and his wife Julia. There were over 40 children in one classroom. Also teaching at Saxis were John "Bud" Taylor, the principal, Sadie Bristow of Matthews Co, VA, and Katherine Kellam of Melfa, VA. After her marriage to Neil, they lived with Neil's parents while they built a home on the back corner of the "Drewer Block" on the "New Lane." During World War I she wore a gold locket with her brother-in-law's (Milton Drewer) picture in it. He was in a German prison camp. She gave the locket to Neil who lost it in the marsh near Saxis. It was later found by Mr. Fred E. Ruediger, a surveyor, and returned to her. She passed this locket down to her daughter Kathryn, who in turn passed it down to her daughter-in-law Linda, to be passed to Kathryn's granddaughter Rebecca. She became a very active member of the Saxis Methodist Church and remained so until her death. They moved from the house they built, into the house built by Neil's father, John R. Drewer, in the spring of 1935, which was just around the corner of the "New Lane." She lived there until she had a paralytic stroke in 1970 when she moved in with her daughter, Kathryn, also on Saxis. In November 1971 more paralysis required her to be hospitalized in Salisbury, MD, and in December she became a patient at White's Nursing Home in Nelsonia and was later transferred to the Accomack County Nursing Home where she remained until her death. She liked to garden and they always grew vegetables so she could can and preserve them for use during the winter. She loved to sew and crochet and made clothes for herself and all four of her children. She also crocheted articles for local sale. She made many quilts for family use, crocheting afghans and bed spreads for her children plus bureau scarfs and luncheon sets for the grandchildren. She also visited the sick on Saxis when she could. Although she suffered a stroke before she died, she died of heart failure. Her common name was Evva. Mary was born on 1 August 1890 at Wachapreague, Acc Co, VA.¹ She was the daughter of Tiberius Jones 'Bee' Killmon and Katherine Rebecca Scarburgh. Mary was employed at as a School Teacher at Saxis, Acc Co, VA, circa 1908. Mary was living after 1908 at Saxis, Acc Co, VA. She married John Cornelius 'Neil' Drewer Sr. on 16 December 1909 at Crisfield, Som Co, MD.² Mary was on the in 1917 roll of the at Meth Ch, Saxis, Acc Co, VA.³ Mary died on 17 February 1972 at Co Nursing Home, Parksley, Acc Co, VA, at age 81.⁴ Her body was interred at Downing's Cem, Oak Hall, Acc Co, VA.⁴

     Tiberius Kilmon's birth record indicates that he was born at White Marsh. As White Marsh is no longer shown on maps of today, it's exact location is uncertain. However, the following reference was found in Stratton Nottingham's book, "Accomack Land Causes, 1728-1825," p. 152, in describing a certain tract of land in 1825, "situate in White Marsh near Holly Meeting House." Therefore, it is assumed that White Marsh was a fairly large area which included the Holly Meeting House, which is located near Keller, VA. He was tall but slight of stature with blond hair and blue eyes. He vaccinated himself for smallpox. He used a pin dipped in the pus formed around the vaccination scab of another child. He scratched his own arm with the pin and it took effect and he was immunized. He was an adventurous type and took his first airplane ride with a stunt pilot performing demonstrations at the Agriculture Fair at Keller one summer afternoon when he was 70 years old. He said he had always longed to fly. He was one of the first men to mass produce fryer chickens in the area. He had his own incubator to hatch the white leghorn chicks. His grandchildren loved to help fill the water jars and the metal feeding troughs for all those little yellow biddies. They also liked to help him slop the huge 300 to 500 lb hogs which he slaughtered for his family's use prior to Christmas. Everyone received a mess of home made sausage, tenderloin, etc. through the mail. They also helped him save watermelon and cantaloupe seeds for his Kilmon Best Hybrid, as he called it. They also liked to go see his sweet potato beds which were down near the woodland with him in his "hoss" cart. It is thought that he lived near Shepherd's Plain in the Pungoteague area when he was married to his first wife, Alice Brown. He finally lived on a farm near Hollies Church, which was closer to Keller and the railroad tracks than his father's home. He was living with his daughter Violet at the time of his death. According to the book "Hacks Neck and Its People," p. 205, Tiberius and Kate had two other children, Elizabeth and N.J., in addition to those listed above. However, no other references to them have been found. His common name was Bee. Tiberius was born on 1 August 1853 at White Marsh, Acc Co, VA.¹ He was the son of William T. Killmon Sr. and Kissier Elizabeth 'Kissy' Fisher. He was listed as a resident in the census report in 1860 at Pungoteague PO, St.George Parish, Acc Co, VA.² He married Alice C. Browne on 2 November 1873 at Pungoteague, Acc Co, VA.³ He married Katherine Rebecca Scarburgh on 11 February 1885.⁴ Tiberius was living at Keller, Acc Co, VA.⁵ Tiberius died on 15 May 1934 at Accomack Co, VA, at age 80.⁵ His body was interred at Hollies Ch Cem, Keller, Acc Co, VA.⁶

     During the second and third quarters of the last century (1825-1875) William Killman (original spelling) began buying up land in the middle of tract A51 and at the time of his death in 1873 he owned over 500 acres, which he bequeathed to his numerous heirs, so that again it was broken up into smaller parts. Ever since his activity in that section, it has been known as Killmantown, generally spelled Killmontown today, although he himself almost always used an "a" in the second syllable of his name. North-and-south through the middle of it was a mile-long concrete strip built during the recent war (WWII) as the first emergency landing strip constructed on the coast, and this was much used in flight training (Whitelaw, p. 801). In his will written 25 Jul 1872, William Killman Sr. named sons John H., Patrick W., Tibe J., and William T. Killman and daughters Tabitha Mears, wife of John H. Mears, and Martha Turlington, wife of George W. Turlington (Acc Co Wills, 1846-1882, p. 514). Another son, George W. Kilmon, who was living with William and Kesiah in the 1850 and 1860 census and was listed as a son of Wm. and Keziah on this 1867 Acc Co marriage, was not named in the will. Since some of the land given to heirs in the will was bounded by the lands of Geo. Killman, perhaps he had already given George his inheritance. William was born on 15 April 1801 at Accomack Co, VA.¹ He was the son of Edward Killmon Sr. and Tabitha Gray. He married Kissier Elizabeth 'Kissy' Fisher on 28 August 1826 at Accomack Co, VA. Babel Hutchinson and Edward Kilmon were securities on the M.L.B. of "Keiziah" Fisher and William Killmon..² He was listed as a resident in the census report in 1830 at St. George Parish, Acc Co, VA.³ William was listed as a head of household in the census of in 1850 at St. George Parish, Acc Co, VA. He was shown as Wm. Kilman of E., the head of HH#600, a 38 year old farmer with real estate valued at $2,000. Listed with him were the following Kilmans: Kisiah, age 42; Wm., age 18 and farming; Nath'l, age 16 and farming; Martha A., age 14; Geo. E., age 11; Tabitha A., age 4; and Calvin W., age 1/12. Also listed was Rich'd Mason, age 25 and black..⁴ William was living in 1853 at White Marsh, Acc Co, VA.⁵ William died on 25 August 1873 at Kilmontown, Acc Co, VA, at age 72.¹ His body was interred at Kilmontown Cem, Acc Co, VA.¹ William's will was probated on 24 November 1873 at Accomack Co, VA.⁶

     Her common name was Kissy. Kissier was born on 19 October 1807 at Accomack Co, VA.¹ She was the daughter of George D(aniel) Fisher and Rachael Turlington. She married William T. Killmon Sr. on 28 August 1826 at Accomack Co, VA. Babel Hutchinson and Edward Kilmon were securities on the M.L.B. of "Keiziah" Fisher and William Killmon..² Kissier was listed with her husband in the census of in 1850 at St. George Parish, Acc Co, VA. She was shown as Kisiah Kilman, age 42 in HH#600 headed by Wm. Kilman of E., a 46 year old farmer with real estate valued at $2,000..³ She was listed as a resident in the census report in 1860 at Pungoteague PO, St.George Parish, Acc Co, VA.⁴ Kissier died on 11 November 1866 at Kilmontown, Acc Co, VA, at age 59.¹ Her body was interred at Kilmontown Cem, Acc Co, VA.¹

     Edward Kilmon's birth, circa 1770, is based on his age in three Acc Co census: aged 26-45 in 1800, 26-45 in 1810 and over 45 in 1820. These combinations indicate that he was born between 1765 and 1775, thus 1770 was chosen. This would put his age at 22 at the time of his 1792 marriage. The 1792 Acc Co M.L.B. of Edward "Killmon" and Tabitha Gray showed they were married by William Downing. In 1765 John and Rachel Sterling resold land to Solomon Gray, who in 1788 left 60 acres at the northwest end to his son Solomon, and the balance to his daughters Tabitha and Ann Gray. Tabitha married Edward Kilman and in 1794 a survey gave each of the daughters 29 acres (Whitelaw, p. 1117 - tract A113). Edward "Kilman" was the head of an 1800 Acc Parish household with a wife, aged 16-26, and 3 sons, aged 0-10. In 1810 he was again the head of an Acc Parish household with a wife, aged 26-45; 3 sons, aged 0-10; and 1 son, aged 10-16; and 1 daughter, aged 0-10. In 1820 he was the head of a St. Georges Parish household with a wife, aged 26-45; 2 sons, aged 10-16; 1 son, aged 16-18; 1 son, aged 16-26; and 1 daughter, aged 10-16. The only Edward "Killman" listed in the 1830 Acc Co census was 20-30 years younger. His wife Tabitha was also not listed in the 1830 Acc Co census. It is therefore assumed that they both died circa 1825. Edward was born circa 1770.² He was the son of Samuel(?) Killmon and Molly (-----). He married Tabitha Gray on 4 August 1792 at Accomack Co, VA.³ He was listed as a resident in the census report in 1800 at Accomack Parish, Acc Co, VA.² He was listed as a resident in the census report in 1810 at Accomack Parish, Acc Co, VA.² He was listed as a resident in the census report in 1820 at St. George Parish, Acc Co, VA.² Edward died circa 1825 at Accomack Co, VA.⁴

     Tabitha (Gray) Kilmon's birth circa 1775 is based on her aged in 3 Acc Co census as the wife of Edward Kilmon and her 1792 Acc M.L.B. In 1800 she was aged 16-26, in 1810 aged 26-45, and in 1820 aged 26-45. These three combinations indicate she was born between 1775 and 1785. Assuming 1775 would have made her aged 17 at the time of her 1792 marriage. Her husband Edward nor she was listed as the head of an 1830 Acc Co household. It is therefore assumed that they both died circa 1825, although she could have been in a son's household at that time. Tabitha was born circa 1775.² She was the daughter of Solomon Gray (I) and Sorrowful Ruth Underhill. Tabitha was living in 1788 at Accomack Co, VA.¹ She married Edward Killmon Sr. on 4 August 1792 at Accomack Co, VA.³ Tabitha died circa 1825 at Accomack Co, VA.⁴
