Anecdote |
1740 |
tract A126, Guilford, Accomack Co, Virginia [3] |
- In 1740 it was ordered by the Court, being informed by John Snead, Gentleman, who was directed to view the Warehouses at Guilford, that William Andrews the proprietor of the said Houses had refused to find sufficient House Room and to repair the said Houses and the Presses. It was ordered that Ralph Justice and Jabez Pitt the Inspectors at the said Houses do agree with Workmen to be paid by the County to build and repair the same.

Court - named in motion |
28 May 1741 |
Accomack County, Virginia, USA [5] |
- On the motion of Ralph Justice, it was ordered that William Andrews be summoned to the next court to show why he did not become administrator of the estate of Selby Gore, decd. (NOTE: Selby Gore's mother Mary Selby married first Daniel Gore (died by 1720) and married second William Andrews, who was alive when Selby died, and would have been the logical choice to settle his step-son's estate. It should also be NOTED that Ralph Justice was normally a justice on the court and had been a justice the day before (26 May 1741) and the day after (30 Jun 1741), but was not a justice on this day, probably because he brought this and another action before the justices for a decision. Therefore he must have had some personal interest in settleing Selby Gore's estate.)
