    Notes:

    According to an old family Bible William Sandefur was born October 14, 1707. He moved to West Edgecombe County, NC which is now Nash County, with his Arrington kin. He married Mary Tompkins.

    Their children were: Martha, Mary, William, Patsy, Ann, Hill, Samuel and Tompkins. In his will, recorded in Southampton Co., Virginia in 1755 he mentioned only his wife, sons Hill, Samuel and the name of Tompkins, a posthumous child. The daughters were not mentioned but are listed in the will of their grandfather, Samuel Tompkins in 1763. Accoring to the Edgecombe Court Minutes in 1772, William Sandifur was appointed administrator of Hill Sandifur decd.

    The name Sandefur also appears as Sandiford and Sandifor.

    Sandifer Excursus: This name appears as Sandifird and Sandifor. Mary Sandefur, wife of Arthur Arrington was daughter of William Sandifur of Southampton Co Va, and his wife Mary, daughter of Samuel Tompkins whose will was probated in Southampton in 1763, Will Book 2-19. Samuel Tompkins was born in York Co Va 6-19-1696. Through parish records of Charles River and York Hampton Parishes, the Tompkins family can be traced back to one Humphrey Tompkins who was in York Co by 1635. (Wm and Mary College Quarterly, Series 1 & 2 16-26). He is probably the same Humphrey Tompkins who was alloweed a bill of adventure due him from a five shilling lottery 1-12-1619. (Records of the Virginia Company, vol1 p295). According to the old family bible of William Sandefur he was born 10-14-1707 and his wife Mary 2-12-1719. Their children were Martha b 9-18-1738, Mary b 9-29-1741, William b 10-14-1743, Patsy b 1-9-1745, Ann b 4-1-1753, and Tompkins b Sep 1755. The entries for Hill and Samuel Sandefur were illegible. The will of William Sandefur was recorded in Southampton Co Va 1755, and mentioned only his wife, sons Hill, Samuel, Williams and posthumous child. This child was given the mother's name of Tompkins, The daughters were not mentioned in the will but are listed in the will of their grandfather Samuel Tomkpins in 1763. Mary Tompkins, widow of William Sandefur, m 2 Benjamin Hasty and had Benjamin b 1758 and Mary b 1762 m Joseph Vick. The Sandefurs moved to western Edgecombe (later Nash) with their Arrington kindred. According to Edgecombe Court Minutes in 1772, William Sandefur was appointed administrator of Hill Sandifur dec'd. The will of Tompkins Sandifur was recorded in Nash Co 1783, mentioning his children and brother in law Arthur Arrington.

    Notes:

    Bennett Farm44YO68 Presenter: Nick Luccketti
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Historical Background:
    A grant made to Joane Bennett, widow, in 1636 for 450 acres. The patent was reissued in 1639 to Hannah Bennett, daughter and heir of Samuel Bennett (Nugent 1974:116). Hannah married Abraham Turner in 1644 (YCDOW 3:159). They may have stayed with Augustine Warner, who lived on a 450 acre tract immediately north of the Bennett patent, for in 1646 Abraham Turner made on oral last will and testament in the Warner's house where he lay ill (YCDOW 2:417). Actual occupation of the Bennett patent may not have occurred until the mid-1640's.
    By May of 1648, Hannah had remarried Humphrey Tompkins (YCDOW 3:360). They had nine children, three of whom did not survive infancy. Humphrey appears to have been a successful planter who was frequently charged with various minor governmental responsibilities. Humphrey Tompkins died in September of 1673 (Charles Parish 1915:250).
    With Hannah Tompkins embarking upon a third marriage in 1674, the estate devolved to her eldest son Samuel (YCDOW 5:65). His career was not unlike his father's, although Samuel seemingly encountered difficulties later in his life. In 1681, Samuel married widow Elizabeth Clark who bore him two children (YCDOW 6:302). Samuel was appointed constable for the lower precincts of Poquoson in 1683 (YCDOW 6:512) only to be replaced three years later, foreshadowing his troubles to come.
    Following Elizabeth Tompkins' death in 1688, Samuel married Sarah Trevillion who inherited 200 acres from her brother (YCDOW 9:74). Samuel promptly sold the property for two slaves, which the records indicate were the only laborers Samuel ever owned. From 1697 to 1702, Samuel was named as defendant in three different debt suits, one case resulting in the attachment of his estate (YCDOW 10:360, 11:141, 12:5). Further, Samuel was again appointed constable in 1699, only to petition the court seventeen months later to be relieved of his duties (YCDOW 11:171,541). Samuel Tompkins died in 1702 leaving eight children and an estate appraised at little more than 30 pounds sterling (YCDOW 12:109).
    In sum, the occupation of Bennett Farm apparently began in the mid-1640's, likely with the marriage of Hannah Bennett to Humphrey Tompkins who, according to the York County records, was a small planter. The Tompkins' had only one servant and Humphrey's only office was surveyor of highways in Poquoson. When he died in 1673, the estate passed to his eldest son Samuel. Although Samuel was twice appointed constable, he seems to have had economic difficulties throughout his life. Apparently the Tompkins family moved to a new site following Humphrey's death in 1702.
    Archaeology:
    Structures
    The principal dwelling on the site originally consisted of a 20' square cell formed from two bays with posts spaced at 10' intervals There was no surviving evidence of a fireplace; however, a door in the southeast corner is indicated by a small intermediate posthole. The presence of a posthole for a door frame further implies that there were no sills between the posts. Without sills capable of supporting floor boards, Structure 1 presumably had a dirt floor. Later a 14.5' addition containing an 7.5' bay and a 7' bay was constructed on the east end of the dwelling. Nine of the 10 postholes of the dwelling each had a posthole cutting through it from the outside. The apparent repair postmolds of Structure 1, however, were 2'-3' outside the original postmold. The function of this second set of postholes was revealed when they were sectioned to show postmolds that angled in towards the building; thus, rather than replacing the original posts of Structure 1, the second set of posts acted as struts or buttresses propping up the building.
    Located approximately 58' from Structure 1, Structure 2 was the only outbuilding found at Bennett Farm. It measured 14.5' by 14.5' with side-wall posts at intervals of 7.0' and 7.5'. The spacing is identical to that of posts in the addition of Structure 1.
    Pits
    A single pit, 68/28, lay 30' south of the main house and 30' northwest of Structure 2. About 30' south from pit 68/28 and 50' west of Structure 2 was a cluster of large and small pits. Finally, a single large pit, with several adjoining small pits, was found 50' south of the central cluster. The sequence of the refuse pits, extending in a line south of the main house, corresponded to the dates when they were filled with trash; 68/28 was filled first c.1650, 68/1-6,8-10 was filled last after 1696, while the pits in between were filled during the intervening years.
    When first uncovered, each of the major refuse pits appeared as a single large feature filled with dark soil. Upon removing the top layer from the pits, it was discovered that each contained variously sized smaller holes ranging from 2'-6' in diameter, suggesting that these were not treeholes, but were dug, perhaps to obtain clay for daub. The vast majority of the artifacts recovered during the excavation came from the refuse pits. Those pits that were abundant in artifacts also had large quantities of oyster shell and animal bone indicating the domestic nature of the trash, undoubtedly coming from either Structure 1 and/or Structure 2. Other pits yielded few artifacts and likewise little shell and bone. The pits were excavated by hand and the soil was selectively sifted through 1/4" wire screen when small bones were present.
    Wells
    Well 1 was 8' deep below subsoil with no evidence of any form of lining. The fill was virtually devoid of artifacts. A section of a wooden ladder was preserved in the bottom.
    Well 2 was10'3" below subsoil and was lined with barrels.
