Notes for Henry Pickett

Henry Pickett settled on Piscataway Creek, which flows to the Rappahannock River, in Essex County, Virginia. The creek is a few miles inland, in the Tidewater section of Virginia. [1] [2] Documents suggest that Henry Pickett had two wives: Sarah and Elizabeth. Henry Pickett first appears in documents in Virginia in 1665.

1665 At a Vestry held September 26, 1665, "It was Ordered That Henry Pickett have Foure Hundred pounds of Tobacco paid him to Cure a Scald head of a Childe now in his Keeping, of William Baldwin's dec'd and that ye next Vestry the said Childe being Cast on the P'rish be bound to ye Said Pickett according to Law." [3] [4]

1650-1667 Both Mattaponi Native Americans and English colonists were moving to Piscattaway Creek, close to Tappahannock, Virginia on the Rappahannock River. [5]

By the early 1650s, the Mattaponi Indians had also left their homeland bordering the Mattaponi River and settled at the head of Piscataway Creek in what was then Old Rappahannock County, later Essex. In 1657, Tupeisens, the chief of the Mattaponi, and their council made a treaty with the justices of Old Rappahannock County, acknowledging that some of their people had trespassed or stolen livestock. The group’s leaders agreed that if any Mattaponi did so in the future, they would be tried under English law. In return, county officials promised that colonists who committed offences against the Mattaponi would be prosecuted. The Mattaponi had the right to hunt and gather outside of the colonists' fenced ground as long as they didn’t disturb the settlers’ livestock. The Indians agreed not to harbor fugitives and, if they surrendered fugitives to the authorities, they were to be rewarded with arms' lengths of roanoke. If the Mattaponi were to trespass or commit other offences, they were to be brought to the house of Owmohowtne, where they would be tried and made to forfeit some arms' lengths of roanoke (Old Rappahannock County Deeds &c. 1656-1664:28).

For a while, the Mattaponi seemed to have maintained a working relationship with the local justices and some of their European neighbors. In fact, in 1660, the Mattaponi chief and council, who met with the justices at the tribe's quiocassin house (or mortuary temple), testified that Francis Brown, who had patented land near their acreage on Piscataway Creek, had not disturbed them. However, the relationship seems to have soured within a relatively short time and, in 1661, Brown, James Vaughan, and Thomas Cooper were summoned to appear before the justices of Old Rappahannock County, where they agreed to pay the chief of the Mattaponi 50 matchcoats for the land in the Indians’ "old town." Moreover, Browne and three other settlers were ordered to give the “King of the Mattaponi” six matchcoats in compensation for the "Severall skins stolen from the Quiouhise house" (Old Rappahannock County Deeds &c. 1656-1664:111, 142, 249-250).

In 1662, the Mattaponi chief filed a legal complaint against Colonel Thomas Goodrich, who reportedly had set the chief’s English-style house ablaze in an attempt to drive him from his land at the head of the Piscataway Creek. Although the governor and his council ordered Goodrich to appear before the next session of the Quarter Court (the colony's highest ranking judiciary body), little seems to have been done in the way of legal redress. Goodrich, who had begun patenting land on the lower side of the Rappahannock River in 1657, enlarged his holdings until he owned literally thousands of acres in what became Old Rappahannock County. Between 1671 and 1680, Goodrich sold off the portion of land containing the old Mattaponi (“Pattipany”) Indian town, but he kept part of the property, which his heirs retained until 1686 (Old Rappahannock County Deeds &c. 1671-1676:7-8; 1677-1687:124; Essex County Deeds and Wills 1695-1699:50; McCartney 2012:175).

By 1667, the Mattaponi Indians had abandoned their town on Piscataway Creek. Francis Brown, who failed to make his court-ordered payment to the Mattaponi, sold his 750 acres that the Indians purportedly had deserted to Thomas Goodrich in March, 1667. A year later, Thomas Cooper conveyed his portion (1,100 acres) of what he called "Old Matapony … part of the Lands where formerly & lately the Mattapony Indians did Inhabit" to Goodrich, who was supposed to pay the Indians the matchcoats Brown owed (Old Rappahannock County Deeds &c. 1663-1668:381-383, 425-426; Hening 1901:II:274-275).

1698 Grandson William Pickett of Fauquier County sold, in 1761, part of the tract, purchased in 1698 by Henry Pickett, to James Kay. The land was bounded by a branch of Cockelshell Cr, a patent granted to William White now Dishman's line, Capt. Robert Rennolds, Thacker's line, Portobacco Swamp & Carter's line. [I have not found Cockleshell Creek on a map. Other deeds naming Robert Payne, John May, and Cockleshell Creek also name Occupation Creek, which is very close to Piscataway Creek, the original homestead of Henry Pickett.] [32][33] [34]. Note that grandson Henry Pickett inherited land on Cockleshell Creek from son William Pickett in 1743.

The land had been granted to Jonathan Fisher on October 28, 1697 [40] but had been deserted. It was granted to Pickett on 15 April for transporting two persons into the colony: Ellinor Corne and Peter Lander. This was conveyed by son John Pickett to Richard Wise in 1709. [41] [42] [43] [Photocopy, Land patent page 1.] [Photocopy, Land patent page 2.]

1701 The last Will and Testment of Henry Picket was dated on August 10, in Essex County, Virginia. [44] [45]

Henry died in March of 1702. At the April court, Henry's widow, Elizabeth, brought the Will in for Probate, but she didn't present the Will until the August court. It was then recorded 10 August 1702. The names of two of the witnesses to Henry's Last Will & Testament, William Wilson and Richard Edward, are not known and were not associated with Henry in previous records. They were possibly friends or relatives of Elizabeth. [46]

1701 Henry Pickett's will mentioned that wife Elizabeth was pregnant. [47] [48] The child was named James and he died before August 10, 1702 in Essex County, Virginia.

1713 Land of Henry Pickett, deceased, and of (son) John Picket was mentioned for a land transaction in Essex County, near Piscataway Creek. [59]

Research Notes:

Several reputable sources indicate that Picataway Creek was the same as Piscatacon and Pascatacon Creek, which was sometimes also called Cox's Creek and Crooked Creek.

The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography (1941), page 81 records: 1682-8 , page 283 , George Kilmon , of Rappahannock County conveyed land near Piscatacon Creek bounded " west south west upon the land of Captain Josias Pickett . ” This is the only reference to Josias Pickett that we have come across."

Many of the court and deed records for Henry Pickett cited above have been indexed by FamilySearch. The index entries do not appear to correspond to the books filmed by FamilySearch. We seek help finding the original documents. [60] [61]

The ancestry for Henry is not known. William Pickett and Ann Sanford (born 1630, incompatible with Henry's birthdate), of England, have been suggested as his parents. William Pickett and Sarah Stone have been suggested as his grand-parents. The spelling of the name may have been originally French-Picquett, then in England became Picot, then came to America and became Piggott, Pickett, Pickette. The original name was used as late as 1681. Henry has been listed as born about 1636 in Middlesex County, Virginia or as born 1641 in Lancaster, England.

Bill Putman listed several Piggot families in Virginia [62]:

In the early records of Passengers to Virginia, I find that a William Piggott, age 50, sailed from
London on May 15th, 1635 on the sailing ship Plain Joan. William Piggott married Ann
Langford, the daughter of James Langford.

A Walter Piggott, age 19, sailed from London on October 24th, 1635 on board the ship Abraham.
One must keep in mind that in those days, Virginia included everything south from the
Massachusetts and New Haven Colonies, so they could have landed anywhere from Jamestown
to Philadelphia.

There was a Henry Pickett or Piggott who had a wife named Sarah and a son John born about
1640 in Essex County Virginia.

There was a James Pigot who signed a petition in Virginia in 1676.

There was a Captain Francis Pigott who came to the eastern shore of Virginia from England in
the late 1600s. His will was filed in Northampton County, Virginia.

There was a Captain Ralph Pigot who married Mary Bullock in Northampton County Virginia on
October 21, 1724.

In the list of Virginia taxpayers from 1782 to 1787, there were three Piggott families living in
James City County of Virginia.

There was a John Piggot who married Peggy Nottingham in Northampton County Virginia on
September 17, 1787.

1609 Captain Pigot signed the second charter for the Virginia Corporation and first Colony of Virginia. [63]
