GEDCOM Note

(Research):
Harris states that John Fleming, son of Sir Thomas Fleming of Wigton, is said to have married a Miss Tarleton before coming to Virginia, about 1658, when he patented land on the south of the York River behind land of Mr. Hughes. John Fleming died in St. Peter's Parish on 27 August 1688 and followed by his son, Charles Fleming, who on 23 Oct 1690 was granted 1000 acres of land next to Andrew Davis' land on a branch of Mattadequin Creek, which was to become his home. On the small stream on his land, he developed a mill, and the Parish opened roads to this mill. Therefore this source gives the descent as: Sir Thomas of Wigton had John Fleming married Miss Tarleton had? Charles Fleming married Susannah Tarleton and on thru our line;
