William Waddill
(Abt 1670 - Abt 1738)
William was a Vestryman at St. Peters from 1704 until 1738. He was Churchwarden from 9 Mar 1708/09 to 22 Apr 1711. There is said to be a great many entries in the Vestry minutes for William.
Wm Waddill paid Quit Rent on 375 acres in New Kent Co in 1704.
These are likely the deaths of Negroes belonging to this William, from the St. Peters Parish Registry:
Nanny, Negro of Wm Waddill died 17 Nov 1714
Will, Negro of sd Waddill, died Dec 1714
Sue, Negro of William Waddill, died 9 Oct 1719

There is a conflict over the name of his wife. Traditionally Susanna who died 7 Mar 1720/21 is assigned to William. One researcher had suggested her name was Judith since Judith Waddill and her hands were levied to Noel Waddill in 1744. Judith could have easily been a sister-in-law, or other relation to Noel. Perhaps examination of the Vestry minutes of St Peters Parish would reveal more. It would seem that William was still living when the Susanna Wadeill died so that eliminates that name.
Could his wife's surname been either Pridgen or Noel [Nowell?]
