It appears that Rebecca did not have any children with Samuel and one daughter with William Rowlett.

We cannot find a land transfer document for such a transaction.2

Thomas Short1,2

b. circa 1668, d. between 20 June 1740 and 21 October 1740
Family Explorer
  • Note*: It is likely that Abigail, the widow of Christopher Blackburn, was the first wife of Thomas Short. This assumption is based on the fact that Christopher left two young children in his will.
  • Birth*: circa 1668; Old Rappahannock Co., VA; Estimated birth date based on Thomas being at least 21 when he sold land in 1689 and the marriage date, Mar 1666-Sep 1673, of his parents.3
  • Event-Misc: 1 January 1689; Old Rappahannock Co., VA; Deed: Thomas sells to John Newton, 1000 acres that he inheirited from "Thomas Short, my father". Original patent to Thomas Short & Michaell Hugill dated May 26, 1666. On Sep 23, 1688, Thomas Short acknowledged a debt of 32,000 lb. tobbaco to John Newton of Westmorland Co. The 1000 acre sale of land on the north side of the Rappahannock River for 16,000 lb. tobbaco was partial payment of this debt.3

(DLW note: First mention of Catherine, 2nd wife of Thomas. Samuel Sallis is the only link I have found between Thomas & Samuel Short. Samuel Sallis was the 1/2 brother of Samuel Short. Charles was probably the brother of Catherine.)6
  • Will*: 20 June 1740; Essex Co., VA; Thomas Shortt will: Sons: Will, John; Wife Katherine: Dau: Ann Golding, Eliza, Katherine, Sarah Ann, Susannah. Exec: William Short and Charles Brown.7

John Short1

b. before 1731, d. circa 1790
Family Explorer
  • Note: We have found some primary evidence connecting John Short to John R. Short in Franklin Co., VA. In addition, yDNA has proven that a descendant of John R. Short is related to the Shorts of Old Rappahannock. There are tax records for Randall John Short & Willaim Short in Fauquier Co., VA & tax records for John Short, Winney Short, Thomas Short snr., R. Thomas Short, John Randolph Short and William Short in Franklin Co., VA. Two of the children of William Short seem to be named for the John & Winiferd Short. However, we have not found a solid connection for Thomas R. Short & John & Winiferd Short, so it is possible that Thomas R. was the son of the Thomas Short, snr., found in the Franklin Co. tax records.
  • Note*: There was a prominate Short family in King George Co. In 1785, Thomas & John Short were mentioned as only surviving sons of John Short and only bro of James Short, dec, late of London and only nephews of James Short of Middlesex, dec. in Scotland.
  • Death:

  • Event-Misc*: 15 September 1752; St. Ann's Parish, Essex Co., VA; Deed: John sells to Sarah Short 150 acres he inheired from his father Thomas. Thomas originally purchased land from William Brooks and it was in possesion of John's mother Katherine at the time of the sale. Dinah, wife of John, relinquishd her dower. Wit: Susannah Short, Thomas Short, Edward Vawter. (DLW note: I assume that the witness Thomas Short was Thomas IV, since Thomas III was not mentioned in his father's will and presumed dead.3

  • Event-Misc*: Elizabeth is not mentioned in the wills of her mother's husbands: William Bendry or Job Virgit. But there was an 8 year period between Job's will and his death, so there was plenty of time for more children. Also, since William Short was a witness to the will of Susanna Meadows Virget Davis, the mother of Job Virget, I have assumed that Elizabeth was a Virget.
