Individual Details

William Proctor

(19 Apr 1756 - )



A Proctor did die in Fayette Co KY about 1798-1800 and his sons were named as George & Benjamin. Much of the will in Fayette Co was burned but what remains also shows his wife as a Mary. This Proctor had apparently given land to George & Elizabeth Hume for their lifetime - Benjamin to inherit at their decease. The testator's name does not appear anywhere in the will fragment that survives. Elizabeth Hume was nee Proctor, a sister to William Proctor.

William Ellis of Spotsylvania Co VA, who died in 1766, named a daughter as Mary Proctor. William Ellis also had a daughter Ann, who was married to Robert O'Neal, father of Popley O'Neal who married Thomas Proctor, another son of George. This Mary Proctor would seem to be a generation older than this William.

But William may have married an Elizabeth, not a Mary. Of course, he could also have been married twice:
There is a suggestion of a marriage, St. Thomas Parish, Orange Co VA - where Hezekiah Proctor married Nancy Young in 1783:
