Individual Details

Will dated 15 Feb 1773, Goochland County, VA. Will leaves bequest to granddaughter Susanna Woodson. Does not mention a daughter Susanna. Implication that the daughter married a Woodson, but died before her father made out his will.I have also seen this will transcribed as DAUGHTER Susanna Woodson, not granddaughter. She received a bequest of 20 £, as sons John and Peter. Any descendant of this line should check the deed book. There is a marriage from Susanna Walker to Shadrack Woodson in 1766 - see the will of David Jr. The transcript which has Susanna Woodson as a granddaughter also omitted Ann Stevens and her bequest.
Sons: John, Peter, Joel.
Dau: Elizabeth Thornhill, Mary Perkins, Judith Poor, Ann Stevens, Hope Lancaster. Wife Mary. Exec: Son Peter Walker and son-in-law Robert Poor. Wit: Will. Douglass, Richard Oglesby, Elisha Leak.

I found the will David Walker Sr., 1774, Goochland Co. VA that lists his daughter Judith married to Robert (Robin) Poor; the Walker's will states "...I give to my daughter Judith POOR, twenty pounds, allowed to her out of the thirty pounds already paid to her husband Robert POOR, ye remaining, ballance of ten pounds, I give to ye said Robert POOR, in consideration of trouble he may be at as one of my executors..."


Dower was laid off to Mary Walker, 6 Sept 1776, reserving her son Joel 43 apple trees on the upper end of the Orchard. Commissioners: Jos. Pleasants, Ben Watkins, Jo. Watkins.
