It is quite possible that this was Samuel Short Sr.(DLW note: The deed records of Spotsylvania indicate that Samuel Short never took possesion of this land because Curtis sold three tracts totaling 408 acres in 1735 and the remainder in 1741.)

John E. Cox
  "These legal documents preserve for us the names of Thomas’s parents, and his brothers and sisters. The posthumous child was a girl and was named Milly.
