  	According to Whitelaw William Custis (A66) was married 3 times. The first was the widow of Francis Stockley and he lived with her on tract N24 until her death. His first wife is believed to have been the mother of Henry Custis who established the Revenswood (A68A) line and possibly a John Custis of Pocomoke (A162). Whitelaw shows he died and left a will in 1726 when he would have been about 95 years old, which was quite old for that time. James Revell Sr. believes he died much younger and the William who died in 1726 was his son.
