Mary Bathurst, wife of Capt.

Lancelot had, besides Mary, three other children, viz., (1) Lawrence, who died unmarried in Essex county about 1705; (2) Elizabeth, married, first, William Tomlin, and second, in 1709, William Daingerfield; (3) Susanna, married Drury Stith.

Mary married Francis Meriwether about 1695. They had six children: Mary (married William Colston and Thomas Wright Belfield), Francis (son, died as infant), Elizabeth (married Drury Bolling), Jane (married James Skelton), Thomas (dsp) and Lucy (married Francis Smith).

Mary Bathurst survived her husband, Francis Meriwether, and married, secondly, Reuben Welch (an Essex County Justice); thirdly, Hon. John Robinson (who became President of the Virginia Council after Mary’s death in 1738). There were no children from these marriages.
