2. George Ivey (c1644? – 1688/9) As noted above, whether he actually left the colony and returned is uncertain.[54] If he did, he must have returned before the 7 March 1663/4 court appearance. He received a certificate for the importation of himself, Thomas Ivey, and one Thomas Piggot on 15 February 1666/7, though it was never used for a patent.[55] [A Daniel McCoy later claimed both George Ivy and his wife Hannah as headrights for a 1673 patent.[56]] Thereafter he appears fairly frequently in the records of Lower Norfolk County, making several purchases of land on Tanner’s Creek in the vicinity of his father’s land. On 16 June 1667, Benjamin and Elizabeth Trenneman sold him 100 acres which Elizabeth had inherited from her former husband, John Sibsey, and which was described as land “now in the possession of Ivy”.[57] George Ivey was married by then, for on 17 August 1668 George Ivey and his wife Hannah deeded that same 100 acres to Thomas Branch, who was by then the husband of Trenneman’s widow Elizabeth.[58] On 15 March 1670 George Ivey bought 100 acres adjoining his own land from Jeffard Lewis. He added to his holdings with a purchase from Charles Grandy on 15 February 1672[59] and another 550 acres from Josiah Crouch in late 1682 which he patented in 1684.[60]

His wife Hannah Ivey may have been the daughter of Elizabeth Sibsey Trenneman Blanch, for her will of 1680 left her entire estate to George Ivey’s children. If Hannah was her daughter, it was apparently by an unknown first husband. Elizabeth had married John Sibsey sometime in the late 1640s, but John Sibsey’s 1652 will makes no mention of a child Hannah, and administration records call Mary Conquest his “sole daughter”. After Sibsey’s death, Elizabeth remarried to Benjamin Trenneman and, widowed yet again, married Thomas Blanch by 1668. [See Thomas Ivey pages for references.] Elizabeth Sibsey Trenneman Blanch left a will dated 17 August 1680 and proved 15 June 1681, and witnessed by Hannah Ivey.[61] The will named George Ivey her executor and left 140 acres which she had patented a few years earlier to “Thomas Ivy ye sone of George Ivy”. The rest of her estate was left to “ye children of…Geo. Ivy (viz.) Alexander, Samuel, George and Thomas Ivy brothers and to Eliz. Ivy their sister.

Note that the will does not explicitly identify Hannah Ivey as her daughter. Most Ivey researchers have assumed that Elizabeth Blanch’s will can only be explained if Hannah Ivey was her daughter. In fairness, we should consider the possibility of a relationship between Elizabeth Sibsey Trenneman Blanch and George Ivey himself. After all, she must have know him since his birth, and surely was aware of his “poor distressed” situation after his father’s death. She may even have taken him in after his father’s death.

George Ivey's own will was dated 5 March 1685/6 and proved 17 January 1688/9.[62] It left his home plantation to his “beloved wife and executrix…Hannah Ivy…and after her deceis to my eldest son Alexander Ivey.” It provided for reversion if Alexander died “before he come of age without issue to the next brother to succeed and so… to the fourth brother or more if there shall be any.” Additional legacies were left to sons George, Samuel, Thomas, John, and Joseph, all of whom were under sixteen. Several daughters are implied, but only Elizabeth Ivy and “youngest daughter Hannah Ivy” are named. “Near neighbors” William and Thomas Langley were witnesses and overseers. The widow Hannah remarried to David Murray [or Murrah] before 16 February 1690/1 when he sued for a debt to George Ivey’s estate as the new husband of the widow.[63] Hannah herself died within the next few months, for on 15 July 1691 Alexander and George Ivey demanded that David Murray, who married their mother “now deceased“, deliver to them the personal estate of their father.[64] She may have died a few months earlier, because on 16 June 1691 George Ivey’s minor children were assigned guardians and ordered to live with various people until they reached the age of sixteen: the minor children mentioned in these records were John, Joseph, Hannah, Elizabeth, and Ann. Both Alexander and George were over 21 at the time, since they were among the appointed guardians. Samuel and Thomas are not mentioned, implying either that they were 14 and could choose their own guardians, or that they were dead.

children

2.1. Alexander Ivey (c1668 – 1694) Named the eldest son in his father’s will, he was still a minor in 1686 when the will was written but was of age by 16 June 1691 when Elizabeth and Ann Ivey were ordered to live with him. He was dead by 16 September 1694, when his widow Margaret was identified as the wife of Francis Thelaball, and his brother George Ivey, as executor of their father, sued Francis Thelabell for the estate of his father in Thelaball’s possession.[65] Alexander’s inventory was recorded a month later.[66] He evidently had no children, since his estate was awarded to his eldest brother George Ivey.[67] It is interesting to speculate on why George Ivey named his eldest son “Alexander”, not a particularly common name at the time. Given the absence of any known Alexander in the Ivey family, it is possible that was the name of his guardian or perhaps of his wife’s father.

2.2. George Ivey (1670 – 1710) He was under 16 when his father’s will was written on 5 March 1685/6, but was of age by early 1691 (see above). As the elder surviving son, he inherited his brother Alexander’s land. He apparently married first a woman named Hannah, for in 1694 George Ivey and Hannah his wife sold the land his father George Ivey Sr. had purchased from Charles Grandy.[68] He was on the 1704 Quit Rent roll of Norfolk County with 496 acres, though how he had disposed of the other 150 acres he should have owned is unknown. His first wife must have died in the late 1690s, because he had married again to Elizabeth Langley and had a son by her before 1702 when the will of Elizabeth Thelaball (widow of James Thelaball) bequeathed two ewes to her great-grandson William Ivey, “son to George Ivey.”[69] George Ivey was dead by 15 December 1710 when his widow Elizabeth was granted administration of his estate. His inventory, dated 21 December 1710, mentions the two ewes given to his son William by his great-grandmother Elizabeth Thelaball.[70] This proves that George Ivey’s wife Elizabeth was a granddaughter of James and Elizabeth (Mason) Thelaball, but does not tell us who her parents were. It appears that her parents were William Langley and Elizabeth Thelaball, daughter of James and Elizabeth (Mason) Thelaball, because William Langley’s 1715 will leaves one shilling to [the children of?] George Ivy “who married my daughter Elizabeth”.[71] Since George was five years dead by the date of this will, I have no idea why this should imply he was still living. To confuse matters more, William Langley’s son Jacob left a will in 1741 leaving one shilling to “Mr. George Ivy who intermarried with my sister Elizabeth” and a gold ring to his “cousin [nephew] Will Ivy”.[72] Both of these wills, in their abstracted form, imply George was still alive as late as 1741. Although this would appear to signal a different George Ivey, these wills are nearly illegible on microfilm and may actually refer to the “heirs of” George Ivey. (In support of this point, I might note that I found no occurrence of the name George Ivey in any records other than these two wills.) At any rate, there are several later records of George Ivey’s estate which show there were a total of four children.[73] Apart from William Ivey, the other three children, James, Joseph, and Margaret were also children of Elizabeth Langley, as they were all under 21 as late as 19 July 1717.[74] Elizabeth apparently did not remarry. George Ivey was evidently the same George Ivey who signed a petition to repeal a 1691 Virginia law against interracial marriages.[75]

I should note at this point that an article published in 1927 made the erroneous assumption that George Ivey’s widow Elizabeth was the same Elizabeth Ivey who left a will in Prince George County dated in 1718.[76] These were quite clearly two different women, the latter being the widow of Adam Ivey of Prince George County.

2.2.1. William Ivey (c1699 – 1769) He was “of full age to choose a guardian” (that is, 14) on 21 May 1714 when he chose William Langley (apparently his grandfather) as his guardian.[77] He was later a vestryman, justice, and tithables commissioner in Norfolk, and remained close to the Langley family. He is apparently the “cousin William Ivey” named in Jacob Langley’s will, the “Capt. William Ivy” who was witness to Sarah Langley’s 1742 will, executor of Joseph Langley in 1750, of George Rouviere (son-in-law of James Langley) in 1758, and of William Nash in 1751. He was also guardian of Frances, minor child of James Langley, in 1755 and of Elizabeth Nash as well. He patented land in Princess Anne in 1734, and eventually acquired almost 600 acres there. He is apparently the William Ivey “Sr.” who witnessed the will of Signa Langley Bartee in 1764. He appears on the tithables lists of Princess Anne in 1731, 1733-5, 1751, 1753-4, 1757, 1759 (with son John), 1765, 1766, 1767 and 1768. The 1769 tithables are lost, but he does not appear in 1770. He lived in Norfolk Borough, but in Princess Anne County, and may have been a ship’s captain. There is a record of a slaver called the Anne, built in Norfolk in 1739, owned by James Ivey and captained by William Ivey. William Ivey’s will is dated 8 April 1769 and proved 20 May 1769. It names wife Ann, son John, grandson George Ivey, and grandchildren Ann Snale and William Ivey Snale. The identity of his wife Ann is unknown.

2.2.1.1. John Ivey (c1742 – c1776?) He did not appear in the tithables of 1757, but was a tithable of his father in 1759, thus born around 1742. He remained north of Tanner’s Creek, appearing in the tithables there 1765 through 1774 with as many as 30 slaves. He married Elizabeth Nash by bond dated 4 June 1760, with his father William Ivey, guardian of Elizabeth, consenting.[78] His father had been mentioned as guardian of Elizabeth Nash, the only child of William Nash, on 18 December 1758[79] and had been executor of William Nash. He and his wife sold land in Princess Anne County in 1770 that “had descended to said Elizabeth as the only daughter of William Nash.”[80] He seems to have died between 1774 when he was last in the tithables and 15 February 1777 when Elizabeth Ivey “relict and widow of John Ivey” renounced her part of the estate. Elizabeth was taxed on slaves in the same district in 1778, and on a son George Ivey in 1780.

2.2.1.1.1. George Ivey (c1763 – 1828?) He was a minor in 1779 when Arthur Boush was his guardian, and a tithable of Elizabeth Ivey in 1780. Not tithable in 1778, he was probably 16 shortly thereafter. He was taxed in Norfolk County in 1790 and 1799, and appears in the 1820 census. Affidavits in the case of the heirs of Thomas Snale establish that George Ivey had four children: William N. Ivy, Thomas J. Ivy, Sarah Ivey (widow of Edmund Goodwin), and Ann R. Ivey (wife of Moses Bonney) all of whom were alive and living in Norfolk in the 1830s.[81] His children claimed to be the only living heirs of both Thomas Snale and of William Ivey [2.2.3.1] in pursuing the Revolutionary land bounties due them. (see below).

The brothers William N. Ivey and Thomas J. Ivey both claimed land in Assumption Parish, Louisiana in 1845. William N. Ivey (born about 1790) married Margaret Willoughby on 23 December 1820. He appears in Norfolk censuses through 1840, but was in Assumption Parish, Louisiana in the 1850 and 1860 censuses with children named Virginia, William N. Jr., Thomas, Amanda, Mary, and Rachel. (Another probable daughter, Marguerite Ann, married in 1846.) Thomas J. Ivey (born about 1793) married Ann Eliza Browne, and is in Norfolk censuses through 1840. He is said to have died in Louisiana leaving adult sons named Virginia H. and Edward and perhaps others.

2.2.1.2. Elizabeth Ivey (c1745? – c1838?) She married Capt. Thomas Snale by bond of 14 September 1763, with the consent of her father, William Ivey.[82] An affidavit associated with Thomas Snale’s Revolutionary land bounty claim states that Thomas Snale “married Betsy Ivy, his own cousin”.[83] Thomas Snale died in the service of the Virginia navy in 1780.[84] Two of their children, Ann Snale and William Ivey Snale, were named in her father’s will but must not have survived for the bounty land case mentions only a child named Nancy Snale, the deceased wife of William Herbert, and established that no other descendants were living in 1836. The bounty land went to the nearest living relatives, who were the four children of her nephew George Ivey.

2.2.2. James Ivey (c1700 – 1752) James Ivey was a vestryman and justice in Norfolk County, and was one of the initial eight aldermen for Norfolk Borough when it was formed in 1736.[85] He was also the owner of a ship called the Anne, built in 1739 in Norfolk, of which his brother William was the captain. He first married Mary Furlong on 11 November 1728.[86] Her will, dated 30 November 1730 but not proved for another seven years, left her husband a town lot in Norfolk given to her by her uncle Daniel Porteen. [87] Daniel Porteen’s will of 1714 had left the lot to Mary Furlong, daughter of his sister Ann Furlong. Richard Furlong’s will of 1712 had mentioned his wife Ann and minor daughter Mary. James Ivey married again to a different woman named Mary, who survived him. The 1743 will of John Hayes gives £20 to James Ivey’s daughter Elizabeth[88], suggesting that James Ivey’s second wife might have been related to Hayes.

James Ivey bought the plantation of Thomas Mason on Tanner’s Creek in 1737, where he apparently lived the remainder of his life.[89] James Ivey’s will was dated 4 November 1752 and proved two weeks later.[90] It named his “loving brother Joseph Ivy”, son James Ivey (the home plantation), daughter Mary Robinson (the lot in Norfolk Borough and a slave), and unmarried daughters Ann, Margaret, and Betty (one slave apiece). His wife was not named, but the will gave her one-fifth of the estate not to exceed £200. She was probably the same person as the Mary Ivey who shows up in the tithables list of the same precinct beginning in 1753. James Ivey had 16 slaves in the 1751 tithables, and Mary Ivey is listed with 15 in 1753 and 18 in 1754. The widow also seems likely to have been the “Mrs. Mary Ivey” who married John Hurt by bond dated 7 May 1759[91], since she does not appear in tithables lists after 1757. John Hurt was later the security in 1765 for Irby Bressie’s guardianship of two of James Ivey’s daughters. All the children except Mary Robinson were under age, and guardian’s bonds exist for the other four orphans of James Ivey. [92]

2.2.2.1. James Ivey (c1740 – c1770?) There are no tithables lists for a few years after 1754, when Mary Ivey had no male tithables other than slaves. The son James Ivey first appears as a tithable of Lewis Hansford in the 1757 tithables of Norfolk Borough. He was still under 21 on 21 June 1759 when Tully Robinson was his guardian[93] but appears separately in the tithables that year in Norfolk Borough with five slaves. The tithables are missing until 1765 when he appears in the same district with 8 slaves and 550 acres of land. He disappears from the tithables after 1766, and evidently died before 1771. In 1771, the will of Solomon Wilson “late of Norfolk County”, who had been a surety for the marriage of Mary Furlong to James Ivey and a witness to her will in 1730, speaks of a claim brought against James Ivey in 1760 over a trip to Surinam, and bequeaths “my claims against the estate of James Ivey deceased” to his children.[94] James Ivey’s wife and children, if any, are unknown. It would seem unlikely that he had heirs living in the 1830s, as they would have joined in the effort to receive the Revolutionary grant due to his cousin William Ivey.

Note that the above record showing that he was dead by 1771 means he could not have been the same James Ivey who later appears with a William Smith in the tithables of 1767 through 1772 in southern Norfolk. That James Ivey seems to have been the husband of Elizabeth Ellis, widow of a Smith, for the 1777 will of John Ellis of the western branch precinct names his daughter Elizabeth Ivey and her son William Smith.

2.2.2.2. Mary Ivey (c1730s? – ?) She was “Mary Robinson” in her father’s will of 1752. Her husband may have been the Tully Robinson who was guardian of her brother James. She was almost certainly a daughter of James Ivey’s first marriage.

2.2.2.3. Ann Ivey (c1745? - ?) She was still under age on 15 March 1764 when Samuel Bressie posted bond as guardian of “Ann Ivy orphan of James Ivy”.[95] She is probably the Ann Ivey who married Irby Bressie by bond of 9 April 1764.[96]

2.2.2.4. Elizabeth Ivey (bef1745 - ?) James Cleeves posted bond for the guardianship of “Betty and Peggy Ivy”, orphans of James Ivy on 17 April 1760, and Irby Bressie posted bond for “Elizabeth and Margaret”, orphans of James Ivey, on 19 September 1765.[97] There is no further record of her.

2.2.2.5. Margaret Ivey (bef1745 - ?) As with her sister Elizabeth, she was still a minor in 1765 and there is no further record of her.

2.2.3. Joseph Ivey (c1700-10 – c1755) He was alive in 1752 when he was mentioned in his brother’s will, which means he must be the Joseph Ivey who appears on tithables lists north of Tanner’s Creek in Norfolk County from 1731 through 1754. His wife seems likely to have been the Alice Ivey who appears on the next available tithables list in 1757 of the precinct with two slaves, the same number Joseph Ivey had in prior years. She was probably Alice Miller, brother of Matthias Miller, because Mary Miller’s will of 1742 had named her daughter Alice Ivey and granddaughter Mary Ivey.[98] The Alice Miller who witnessed Mary Ivey’s will in 1730 proved it in 1737 as “Alice Ivey alias Alice Miller.” She must have married an Ivey between 1730 and 1737, and Joseph seems the likely candidate. In addition, Joseph and Alice Ivey both witnessed the will of Henry Miller dated 20 January 1741/2.[99] She may have been the Alice Ivy “widow aged 39 or more years” who testified in 1759 that she had lived in the borough of Norfolk all her life.[100]

2.2.3.1. William Ivey (c1750? - 1778) He was not in the 1770 tithables, but appears as a tithable in 1773 with Pomp and Toby, the same two slaves taxed to Alice Ivey in 1770 and 1771. The 1776 will of John Willoughby mentions land in Norfolk Borough that he bought of “Alse Ivy and her son William Ivy”. This is apparently the William Ivey who was a Revolutionary War naval captain, dying during the war. He joined the Virginia State Navy by September 1776, was appointed captain of a small ship in early 1777 and died sometime later that year or in early 1778.[101] His administrator was apparently initially his uncle John Ivey, then Arthur Boush.[102] He died without issue, for the four children of George Ivey (2.2.1.1.1 above) claimed to be his only living heirs 1834.[103] [Note that several printed sources incorrectly identify these heirs as his own children.] Under the succession laws of the time, his distant cousin George Ivey would have inherited as his nearest relative in the line of succession.[104]

2.2.3.2. Mary Ivey (by1742 – c1769?) She was named as a granddaughter of Mary Miller in her 1742 will, which left her a slave named Toby. She may have died not long after, for a slave named Toby was taxed to Alice Ivey in 1770 and 1771 and to William Ivey in 1773. Further, neither she nor any children were heirs of her brother William, indicating she died without issue.

2.2.4. Margaret Ivey (c1700-10 – by1737) She may have been the wife of Solomon Wilson, who was surety for the marriage of James Ivey to Mary Furlong. Both Solomon and Margaret Wilson witnessed the will of Mary Furlong Ivey, wife of James Ivey, in 1730. Margaret Wilson was deceased by the time the will was proved, as Alice Miller Ivey proved her signature.

2.3. Samuel Ivey (by 1674 - ?) He was probably older than Thomas since he’s mentioned in both wills before him. I found no further reference to him in the records and assume he died shortly after 1686.

2.4. Thomas Ivey (by 1675 – by 1713) He appears to be the fourth son, aged 16 or over by 1691 since he was not assigned a guardian then. He sold the 50 acres inherited from his father to his brother George in 1696[105] and appears to be the same Thomas Ivey who moved a few miles south into Currituck County, North Carolina where Thomas and Mary Ivey sold land to John Jones in 1709, with witnesses who were all former residents of Norfolk County.[106] That means this Thomas Ivey was probably the father of John Ivey, who in 1731 sold land to Thomas Grandy in neighboring Pasquotank County described as formerly the land of “Thomas Ivey decd, father of the said John Ivey”.[107] John Ivey’s land is mentioned in a Pasquotank deed of 7 December 1713[108], so it appears Thomas Ivey was already dead by then. Thomas Grandy had been a former neighbor of John Ivey (1.5 above) in Norfolk County, and his son-in-law William Russell had witnessed the 1709 Thomas Ivey deed in Currituck – he may also be related to the Charles Grandy who sold to George Ivey (2 above).

Thomas Ivey’s wife Mary was almost certainly Mary Joyce, the daughter of John Joyce.[109] John Joyce named a daughter “Mary Ivee” in his will dated 18 June 1707[110] and Thomas Ivey appears to be the only candidate to have been her husband. John Joyce’s widow Rachel remarried to Richard Roberts, whose 1719 will[111] names only four legatees: Rachel, two sons-in-law who were sons of John Joyce, and “daughter-in-law Mary Davis”. This suggests that the woman who was “Mary Ivee” in 1707 was “Mary Davis” by 1719. Thomas Ivey is the only Ivey who died in that timeframe who could have been her husband.

2.4.1. John Ivey (c1700? – 1771) The above argument indicates that he is the same John Ivey who begins to appear in Pasquotank records in 1731. Apparently the same John Ivey is mentioned in a diary of William Byrd as living in North Carolina near the border of Princess Anne on 15 March 1728/9.[112] He appears frequently in Pasquotank court and deed records, and seems to have lived on Knobbs Creek, north of the Pasquotank River. His will is dated 16 September 1771 in Pasquotank County.[113] It names wife Elizabeth Ivey, and leaves son James Ivey the land “I now live on” and the “old plantation”. It mentions daughters Keziah Jones and Hannah Ivey, granddaughter Valey Ivey, and grandson Ivey Burnham.[114] It appears he also had a son named Lemuel who predeceased him. There is also a single mention of William Ivey and a Robert “Ives” in 1755 court records, both suing Jacob Barber.[115] Although these may have been additional sons, the fact that they were plaintiffs means they may have lived elsewhere and filed suit in Paquotank because that was the defendant’s residence. Also in Pasquotank was an Ives family, to which they may have belonged.

2.4.1.1. Lemuel Ivey (c1730? – 1769) I assume he was a son of the above John Ivey since he lived in the same area but was considerably younger. He first appears on the 1754 tax list of Pasquotank County[116], on a 1755 militia muster roll, and in several Pasquotank records in the 1750s and 1760s.[117] He left a will in Pasquotank dated 22 May 1769 mentioning wife Sarah, daughter of Thomas Parker, and unmarried daughters Mary, Elizabeth, Sarah, and Tamor.

2.4.1.2. James Ivey He was executor of his father in 1771. He was not tracked further.

2.5. John Ivey (c1681 - ?) He was probably born between wills, and was under 14 in 1691 when James Peters was made his guardian. I don’t see any record of him after that. A Thomas Ivey and John Ivey witnessed a power of attorney in Norfolk from Edward Outlaw of Chowan County, NC on 20 October 1727. Since it appears Thomas Ivey was long dead, I do not think these were Outlaw’s brothers-in-law. Rather, they were probably Outlaw’s first cousins. He does not seem to appear in either Norfolk or Princess Anne records. I assume he died young or migrated elsewhere.

2.6. Joseph Ivey (c1682 - ?) He was probably born between the two wills, and was under 16 in 1691 when his brother George was made his guardian. I found no later record for him and assume he died young.

2.7. Elizabeth Ivey (c1678 – aft1695) She was born before 1681 and must have been 16 or more in 1695 when she requested her brother George pay out her share of their father’s estate.[118]

2.8. Hannah Ivey (c1685 - ?) She was the” youngest daughter” in her father’s 1686 will and is not mentioned in Elizabeth Blanch’s will of 1680. She may have been the Hannah Ivy whose deposition says she was aged “about 28” by 15 April 1715.[119]

2.9. Ann Ivey (c1687 - ?) She was probably born after 1686 (not being named in either will) but no later than 1689. She may have been posthumous, as she is first mentioned among the children in 1691 when her brother Alexander was made her guardian. Her brother George assumed her guardianship after Alexander’s death in 1694. Although the connection is tenuous, she may have married Edward Outlaw, whose wife was named Ann. On 17 December 1714, Elizabeth Ivey, widow of George Ivey, was ordered to pay 22 shillings to Edward Outlaw “which was due him in George Ivey’s lifetime”. This might have been Ann’s share of the estate. Although Edward Outlaw had a proven connection with John Ivey (#3 below), there are a few records tying him to this branch of the Ivey family as well. [See Holtzclaw’s Outlaw Genealogy for more information.]

Numerous errors have occurred in past publications on this family, W. Mac Jones has perpetuated the greatest error in listing George Ivey , son of George and Hannah [Blanch?] Ivey, as of Elizabeth Ivey, who was actually the wife of Adam Ivey of Charles City County ( now Prince George County ), Virginia.

Boddie, in his "Historical Southern Families” Volume 16, page 158 and following, establishes the fact that George Ivey, son of George and Hannah Ivey, and his wife Elizabeth Langley Ivey , had the following children ;

• William,
• James,
• Joseph, and
