| Marriage | 1705 | Blisland Parish, Virginia, British Colonial America - John Bunch III | | | |
| Legal | 16 Aug 1705 | & Sarah Slayden, A white woman, petitioned the Council of VA on 16 AUG 1705 to Allow them to marry because the Minister of Blisland Parish (in New Kent & James City counties) had refused to marry them. The Attorney General was undecided "whether the petition came within the intent of the Law to prevent Negros & White Persons intermarrying" because he could not resolve "Whether the issue begotten on A White woman by A Mulatto man can properly be called A Mulatto, that name As I conceive being only Appropriated to the Child of A Negro man begotten upon A white woman or A white man upon A negro woman, & As I Am told the issue of A Mulatto by or upon A white person has Another name viz. that of Mustee; wch if so, I conceive it wholly out of the Letter (tho it may be conjectured to be within ye intent) of the sd Act, to which (as Abovesd being Penal) is, As I conceive, not to be construed beyond ye letter thereof." The matter was referred to the court to decide [McIlwaine, Executive Journals of the Council, III:28, 31]. | | | |
