Capt. George Dabney

George Dabney I was born to Cornelius and Edith Dabney ca. 1670 in New Kent County (later Hanover County), Virginia. He was probably their second son in birth order because he was listed second after James in the government committee report recommending issuance of patents to Cornelius four eldest children and second in the order of issuance of patents.

He was married to Elizabeth (Eliza) (__) ca. 1685 or a little later. They had 7 children, of whom at least 6 lived into adulthood: Mary; Elizabeth, born November 11, 1698; George II, born ca. 1701; Susannah; Sarah; Judith; and William, born about 1707-1710.

Notes

• Rev. R. L. Dabney relates about the same facts, and says: "That his son, George, and family, took umbrage at his father's second marriage, he being himself then married and having children, and separated themselves from his father and second family of children, and moved away, and would have no communication with them.' " (1)
