Arabella's Family



Arabella's paternal grandmother's family? (Nunnally)
Locality Index Number Original Case Number
CHESTERFIELD CO 1798-005
Plaintiff(s) Defendant(s)
John Nunnally 
Charles Burton


Samuel Burton-1725: Arabella was the daughter of Samuel Burton of Amelia County, Virginia.
Samuel was born in neighboring Henrico Co., Va., and sometimes was found recorded in Chesterfield Co., an offshoot of Henrico Co. He was the son of John Burton, of Henrico/Chesterfield County, in liaison with Judith Nunnally.   Bristol Parish births have the following entry:
"Samuel Burton son of Judith Nunsry born Aug 8,1725"

Footnotes:

Based on numerous other records too lengthy to detail here, not the least of which are Nunnally properties near John Burton, and later Amelia County records next to Samuel Burton showing Judith (Nunnally) Worsham responsible for Richard Nunnally debts, it appears that Judith Nunnally was probably the daughter of Richard Nunnally II and Sara Akin: page 27, Our Nunnally/Nunley Family by Jean Nunley Dennison, Sept 1997.
