It is said that in the late years of the 17th Century, three brothers, Richard, Francis, and Joseph Timberlake came from England to live in America. They landed at Port Royal in Caroline County, Virginia, and were often referred to as the "Port Royal Immigrants." From Port Royal, Francis and Joseph Timberlake went to Middlesex County, Virginia.
