Thomas Poindexter

(Ca 1765 - )



Certainly Chapman Poindexter lived in Halifax Co VA. The earliest Poindexter marriage recorded in Halifax is that Thomas Poindexter married Susanna [surname unreadable] on 23 Mar 1789. Richard Packer was bondsman. Chapman appears to have had a brother named Thomas as in their father's will - my best estimate is that Thomas probably would have been about 25 or 26 years old in 1789. The birth shown here is based on that estimate.
On 17 Dec 1823, Susan Poindexter married John Clay; the bride's mother given as Susan Poindexter, indicating that no father was living.
This couple - Thomas and Susan/Susannah could have been the parents of several of the other Poindexters who married about this time in Halifax. Some of these Poindexters have been "assigned" to Bond Veale, the younger, and his wife Margaret McKennon. It is evident to me that different Poindexter lines were living in Halifax.
