John4 Graves, as we have said, was born in 1712, and named most likely for his grandfather, John Moody. In Essex O. B. 11, May 15, 1739, we find him sued for debt by Wm. Wills and losing the case. In 1742, he witnessed a deed from Philip Sanders, probably his cousin, to Mary Curtis (Crozier's Spots. Rec., p. 159). On Jan. 27, 1743/4, he purchased from Nicholas Randolph and Margaret his wife for 25 £ current money 170 a.
beginning at a hickory on the east side of Mine Road upon Wyatt's line thence running down the line to a red oak, white oak and hickory standing, etc., upon John Sartin's land, thence to a line old Musick made, this 170 a. being part of a larger tract patented by sd. Musick and by him conveyed to sd. Randolph (Spots. D. B. "D," p. 111).
"Old Musick" is likely the George Musick who died in Spotsylvania Co. 1754 (Crozier's Spots. Rec., p. 13), and who was living in King Wm. 1719 (King Wm. Rec., Book 2, p. 85), at which time he patented land adjoining Harry Beverley (S. L. O. Book 10, p. 430). This is the only purchase of land by John4 Graves recorded in Spotsylvania, but the amount of land bequeathed in his will shows that either other purchases were unrecorded or antedated the formation of the county.
