Samuel Short^1,2

b. before 1672

Family Explorer

Note*: Although there is meager circumstantial evidence suggesting that Samuel was connected to Thomas Short Jr., yDNA results seem to have proved that these men were not genetically related. These men lived in Essex Co., VA at the same time and Thomas was familiar with Samuel Sallis, the half-brother of Samuel Short, so it is difficult to see how they were not part of the same family, even if they were not genetically related. We will probably never know the circumstances of this situation.
Death*:
Birth*: before 1672; Old Rappahannock Co., VA; Estimated birth date based on Samuel being at least 21 when he married in 1693. I strongly suspect that Samuel was older, since the marriage was his wife's 3rd.^1,2,3,4
Marriage*: between 1704 and 10 May 1709; Essex Co., VA; Sarah Catlett Sallis is recorded in Essex Co. Quit Rent rolls of 1704. Samuel Short and Robert Taliaferro witnessed a power of attorney in 1709. Robert was the step son of Samuel, so Samuel and Sarah were probably married.; Principal=Sarah Catlett^1,2,3,4,5
Marriage*: before 18 August 1719; Essex Co., VA; Samuel Short married Sarah, widow of John Armstrong before 17 Aug 1719. Since Samuel Jr. was born c 1707, he would have been a bit young to marry anyone, much less a widow. I have not found the primary source for this asseration.; Principal=Sarah ?^6,7
Event-Misc: 18 August 1719; Essex Co., VA; Court Proceeding: Action Of debt brought by John Hall agst. Samll Short. Action of debt brought by Patrick Gilbreath of Glasgow, Mercht. Vs. Samul. Short & Sarah his wife, late Sarah Armstrong, Admx. of John Armstrong, late of Richmond Co., deced.⁷
Marriage*: before 9 October 1724; Essex Co., VA; This marriage could have involved Samuel Short Sr. or Jr.; Principal=Frances ?⁸
Event-Misc*: 9 October 1724; St. Mary Parish, Essex Co., VA; Power of Attorney: Samuel Short of "Short Quarter" gave his power of attorney to Mosley Battaley of Spotsylvania to sell 125 acres to Edward Evans. Frances, wife of Samuel, relinquished her dower rights.(DLW note: I'm not sure if Frances married Samuel Jr. or Sr.⁸
