Land sold* | 26 May 1752 | He sold land on 26 May 1752 at tract A121, east of Modest Town, Accomack Co, VA. Luke Fortesque and his wife Elizabeth with Jeremiah Ashby and his wife Rachel acknowledged their deed to William Jackson. The women had voluntarily consented. Whitelaw shows that in 1689 Daniel Jenifer alone sold 300 acres to Martha Eyre, the widow of Benjamin; the land was partly above the Scarburgh purchase, being in the little neck formed by the two branches of Hog Neck Creek, but it extended northwest along the Justice land to the back line of the Jenifer acreage. The deed was to Martha for her life and then to her son Reginall Eyre, and in his will of 1709 he signed his name Regnold and left the property to his sisters Elizabeth and Martha. Nothing more was found recorded about the latter, so Elizabeth inherited the whole and she was married twice, first to John Abdill and then to William Stott, both of Northampton. In 1713 John and Elizabeth Abdill sold 160 acres to John Tankard, comprising the part east of the preent road. In 1749 John Tankard (wife Elizabeth) left to his son Stephen. However, the land later was recovered by daughters of Elizabeth (Whitelaw errored by saying they were by a previous marriage as he later stated they were Abdill daughter) and in 1752 Luke and Elizabeth Fortesque and Jeremiah and Rachel Ashby, the wives being Abdill daughters, sold the same land to William Jackson; the next year John and Elizabeth Dickson(sic) deeded their interest to Jackson, Elizabeth having been the daughter of Mary Stott, who also was an Abdill daughter.1,6 |

Married Name | 19 October 1837 | As of 19 October 1837,her married name was Ashby. |
Death* | 25 March 1847 | Sarah Ann Garrison died on 25 March 1847 at Northampton Co, VA, at age 34.2 |
Burial* | April 1847 | Sarah was buried in April 1847 at Long Point Farm, Occahannock Neck, Northampton Co, VA.2 |
Anecdote* | 12 May 1847 | James wrote a eulogy to her. It was printed in the Christian Advocate and Journal, May 12, 1847. "Sarah Ann (Garrison) Ashby of Northampton county died Mar. 27, 1847, in the 35th year of her age. She was the daughter of Abel and Margaret Garrison, of Accomack county, and wife of James Ashby, of Northampton county. She was converted to God at a camp meeting held at Knock's (Nock's?) Branch, in August, 1836, and immediately connected herself with the M.E. Church, and so far as the writer is able to judge, lived a consistent and worthy member until her death. My dear companion was the subject of much bodily affliction during her married life of nine years, which prevented her from attending regularly the house of God, but I feel thankful that she was not inattentive to the one thing needful. She was unable to converse much during her last illness. I believe all she said, except when asking for water, etc., was when the subject was introduced by the writer, she replied she loved the Lord, and knew the Lord loved her - that she was not afraid to die, but regretted having to leave her husband and children, the youngest of whom was only two days old at the time of her death. But she is gone, 'Where all her toils are o'er, Her suffering and her pain,' leaving a disconsolate husband and five small children behind. She was a kind and affectionate companion, a fond and indulgent mother, and a good and kind mistress, and one much beloved by her neighbors. Knowing that the Lord is too wise to err, and too good to do wrong, I must bow and kiss the rod with which he smiteth. Her funeral sermon was preached by Rev. Montcalm Oldham from 1 Cor.ii,9 'Eye hath not seen,' etc. In conclusion I will adopt the language of Job, and say, 'For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of has come unto me.3'" |

"Consort of James Ashby in Northampton Co., Va., died Dec. 27, 1849, in the 31st year of her age. She was happily converted to God at a camp meeting held near Johnson meeting house, in August, 1848, and immediately united herself with the M.E. Church, in which she continued a faithful and worthy member until her death. She suffered much for several months previous to her departure, and often expressed the belief that she should not live long. We hoped for the best, however, until a few minutes before the spirit took its flight; but such was her walk and Christian deportment, that those who knew her best have the consolation of believing that our loss is her everlasting gain. Her funeral was attended by Rev. M. Oldham."3 |

Birth* | circa 1733 | Black 'Jack' Custis was born circa 1733 at Williamsburg, James City Co, VA.1 |
Will - Father's* | 14 November 1749 | Black was named in his father's will on 14 November 1749 at Williamsburg, James City Co, VA. In his will John Custis named: my Negro boy christened John, otherwise called Jack, born of the body of my slave Alice and son Daniel Park Custis, Extr. (NOTE: He did not name his daughter Frances Parke Custis who had married William Winch.2,1 |
Anecdote* | Comments by James B. Lynch Jr., author of The Custis Chronicles, regarding Black Jack Custis: Probably the supreme humiliation heaped upon poor Daniel by the terms of his father's will was his appointment as sole executor. One tries to visualize Daniel, Martha (whom he married in the year following his father's death) and Jack living in a sort of ménage a trios at White House on the Pamunkey River (Daniel's chief residence) or possibly even Custis Square. No wonder Martha is believed by at least one source (see Prologue, Part Two) to have discarded spitefully many of her father-in-law's possessions when she "cleaned house" a number of years later at Custis Square. As for Jack, he obligingly died young without keeping Daniel an unseemly length of time from his inheritance. Jack must have been a bright, good-natured and attractive young man to merit such affection and loyalty from John Custis IV. Moreover, he must have charmed not only John but others. That Mrs. Moody, according to the terms of the will, was to receive Jack's portrait implies that the boy had won a place in her heart. Unfortunately, Jack scarcely outlived his master. John Custis' dear friend John Blair inscribed these words in his diary in the following entry: "September 19 (1751). Ab' 1 or 2 in ye morn, Col. Custis' Favorite Boy Jack died in ab' 21 hours illness being taken ill a little before day the 18th with a Pain in the back of his Neck for Wch he was blooded." Jack, whose portrait long ago vanished, is hard to visualize. Apart from his color, he perhaps resembled his father John, whose Christian name he was given by either his master or his mother. Daniel, who according to his father bore a remarkable resemblance not to his father but to grandfather Daniel Park II, probably reminded Custis daily of the cross he had borne ever since the death of he governor of the Leewards in 1711. How often, one wonders, did Custis compare Jack with Daniel and perhaps even with his dead daughter Frances? Although born from the womb of an African slave, Jack was nevertheless the child of his spirit, and the only child who had never proved a disappointment, who had never let him down.3 | |
