Although he owned two small parcels of land in Caroline County, Richard and wife, Elizabeth Sampson, never lived there. He resided in Stafford County in 1691 and in Spotsylvania County before 1721, when it was formed. We can prove three land grants to Richard in Spotsylvania County. We have Road Orders that prove his residency there from 1722 through 1734, the year of his death. The records presented below were compiled from the Spotsylvania County Road Order Book 1722-1734.
