Richard Washington (1660 - 1725)         Born: 05 Sep 1660, Westmoreland Co, VA Died:  19 May 1725, Surry Co, VA                                                                                     Richard Washington was born 05 Sept 1660 in Westmoreland County, Virginia.  He was the son of John Washington (b. 1631) and Mary Flood Blunt Ford Washington.      Richard's father, John, was the first of our Washington lineage to arrive in the "Colonies".  John arrived in Surry County, Virginia, from Barbadoes, as a merchant, and married Mary.  The marriage between John and Mary was his first, but her third.  She had first married Richard Blunt and had a son, Thomas.  Upon Richard's death, she married Charles Ford.  Upon Charles' death, she married John Washington.           Unfortunately, John died about the same time his son, Richard, was born - perhaps drowned at sea.           Richard's mother, Mary Flood Blunt Ford Washington, married Henry Briggs, and had several additional children.  Henry would have been the father that actually raised Richard.       Richard Washington, son of John and Mary, married Elizabeth Jordan.  Elizabeth was the daughter of Arthur Jordan and Elizabeth Bavin, widow of Richard Bavin.       The Marriage Contract of Arthur Jordan and Elizabeth Bavin was dated 22 April 1654, in which he provides for her in a very generous way. The Jordan family were early settlers of Virginia and were important men in the Colony, holding many high offices.     Richard was a prominent landowner as well as a vestryman of Southward Parish in Surry County, Virginia.       Children of Richard Washington and Elizabeth Jordan Name Birth Date Death Date Spouse George Washington Abt. 1685 Oct 1763 Mary Wright Richard Washington Abt. 1687 1773 Patience (Unknown) Elizabeth Washington Abt. 1689 1773 Pitt Co, NC Sampson Lanier, Sr. John Washington Abt. 1691 1754 Elizabeth (Unknown) Thomas Washington Abt. 1693 1748 Agnes (Unknown) William Washington Abt. 1695 1763 Sarah Tynes James Washington Abt. 1697 Surry Co, VA 1766 NC Joyce Nicholson Priscilla Washington Abt. 1699 Bef. 1764 Robert Lanier Faith Washington Abt. 1701 Living 1760 Josiah Barker Mary Washington Abt. 1703 1770 Robert Hart Arthur Washington Abt.  1705 Living 1738 Sarah (Unknown) Ann Washington Abt. 1707 1749 John Stevens     Richard died between Nov 1724 and May 1725.  His will, dated 09 Nov 1724 and probated 19 May 1725, mentions his sons, George, Richard, William, John, Thomas, James, and Arthur Washington, daughters Elizabeth Lanier, Priscilla Washington, Ann Washington, Faith Barker and Mary Hart, as well as several grandsons.    He had amassed an impressive amount of property [over 1200 acres], plus a plantation, livestock and slaves.     Richard Washington's Will   To son George Washington   300 acres on west side of Nottoway Swamp below John Barnes, one negro and livestock for his life To son Richard Washington   All land he hath in his possession, his full share of estate.
