WILLIAM RUST - 101

VA-031, p3: "101-William, b. Westmoreland County, Virginia, was doubtless of age when on June 29, 1696, he was named for grand jury duty, and not appearing for such service was fined. He was named constable in the precinct of Yeocomico, Cople Parish, Northumberland County, in January 1694. Earlier, March 25, 1690-91, Samuel BONUM acknowledged sale of land to William Rust, Jr. and wife, and on December 16, 1691, William BUTLER and wife, Joanna, formerly the widow of John WARD, conveyed to William Rust, Jr., her dower in WARD lands, and on September 28, 1692, William Rust and wife, MARGARET, make a lease and release to William BUTLER. (see info under 100-John)
One John POWELL on his deth left 150 acres of land to his wife, Joanna, and to his two daughters-in-law (i.e., step-daughters), Rebecca (THOMAS) and Margaret (BONUM), wife of Samuel BONUM. Rebecca THOMAS had at that time a daughter, Rebecca, then married to James ORCHARD. Margaret BONUM had children, SARAH, deceased, and MARGARET, the wife of William Rust, Jr., then deceased.
James ORCHARD and wife, Rebecca, Samuel BONUM, Thomas BONUM, and Margaret RUST, widow, conveyed their rights in the above land to George ESKRIDGE of Yeocomico, Parish of Cople, Westmoreland county.
The will of 101- William Rust, March 18, 1696-7, was proven July 28, 1697, and on that day his widow, Margaret, was made administratrix of his estate with the will annexed. She appears to have died in 1699, for on June 28, that year, George ESKRIDGE was made administrator of her estate.

CHILDREN:
200-William
201-Anne all of whom appear to have died without issue.
