Capt. Thomas Massie

Notes for THOMAS MASSIE:

In records of St. Paul's Parish, New Kent Co., VA, 1720, he appears as "Capt. Thomas Massey." An officer in the New Kent Co. Militia, vestryman for St. Peter's Parish from 1704, member of the Virginia House of Burgesses (1722-1726), and Justice of the Peace for New Kent Co. in 1726 and 1729. At his death he held 4000 acres on Lyttle Byrd Creek in what is now Goochland Co., VA, that had previously been granted to his father Peter, and was subsequently claimed by brother John.

Perhaps married first in 1698, Martha MACON, who must have died soon since he married Mar. 23, 1698/9, New Kent Co., VA.

Note: Also removed Charles Massie as son of Thomas and Mary. The concern is stated below where Charles is named as child of the marriage.

xii. CHARLES MASSIE. born 1727 Note: No evidence has been found of Charles Massie's birth to Thomas and Mary Walker Massie to date. Charles Massie descendant, Powell Massie stated in an email that Charles Massie's father was a Thomas Massie, however they have not been able to connect him to Peter Massie's line. Peter Massie descendant, David Douglas and Charles Massie descendant, Powell Massie do share a small auDNA segment indicating a possible connection.
