Individual Details

Nicholas was an immigrant by 1636. One of 22 persons transported by Edward Garner of Henrico Co to the Virginia Colony. Mr. William Clarke filed a patent on the basis of that transport for 1100 acres previously granted to Edward Garner as he had married Edward Garner's widow, Dorothy, and the land was due her. This claim was allowed on 29 Sep 1636.
This patent is recorded twice. The first is the above date in 1636 and is in PB 1, p.392. The same was recorded again on 6 May 1638, PB 1, p.547.

Nicholas Pledge remained in Henrico Co - probably the area that became Goochland in 1729. He is not listed in the 1704 Quit Rent Rolls, but likely deceased as he's believed to have born about 1618.
