Jean Pierre Faure

Other Events and Attributes:

• Married: 1692, , , , France

Notes:

FAURE FORE FORD

ORIGIN OF THE NAME

The immigrant ancestor of this family was a native of Auvergne, France; who came with a party of French Huguenots who were refugees of religious persecution who fled to Virginia and were one of the founders of Manakin Town.

The original spelling of the name was FAURE, later Anglicized to FORE and still later to FORD.

ARMS

Argent a heart gules, pierced by three arrows sable, two and one.

SYMBOLISM

ARGENT: (silver) Denotes Peace and sincerity

GULES: (red) Military fortitude and magnanimity

SABLE: (black) Constancy

HEART: Denotes ardent affection. It is so very symbolical, and it is
by no means of
modern composition. It was confirmed as an ancient bearing, in 1768 by
Heralds College.

ARROWS: Signifies a man resolved to abide by the uttermost hazard of
battle, who to
that end has furnished himself to the full.

This coat is of ancient origin, since it bears no crest and no motto. Mottoes did not come into use until the 16th century. Crests came into being after the Crusades, when the knights wore them in the tournaments to distinguish one from another.

THE HUGUENOT FAMILY OF FAURE, FORE, FOARD, FORD

Of the army of William of Orange, numbering eleven thousand, which sailed from Holland, and by whose aid he obtained the Crown of England, three regiments, each containing seven hundred and fifty effective men, were Huguenots. To these were added a squadron of horse. In gratitude to these zealous and effective supporters, and in sympathy with the great multitude of their suffering brethren driven violently from their homes and native country simply for their religion the King invited them to make their home in his new dominions in America. A large number sought a home in Virginia and settled along the Potomac, Rappahannock and James Rivers.

In the year 1700, more than five hundred emigrants, at the head of whom was the Marquis de la Muce, were landed in Virginia by four successive debarkations. (Beverly’s History of Virginia p. 244.) They appear to have settled at different points; a portion about James Town, some in Northfolk County, others in Surry, and two hundred or more at a spot some twenty miles above Richmond, on the south side of James River (now in Powhatan County), where then thousand acres of land, which had been occupied by the extinct Manakin tribe of Indians were given to them. They were also exempt from the payment of taxes for seven years, and were allowed to support their minister in their own way.

The records relating to the emigration to Virginia in 1700 of the Huguenot
refugees, are taken from the originals now deposited at the Bodleian Library, Oxford University, England. These originals consist of a vellum bound volume of MSS. endorsed: “ORIGINAL PAPERS RELATING TO THE FRENCH PLANTATION IN THE WEST INDIES.”

They are undoubtedly the original documents emanating from the Provincial
Government of Virginia under Francis Nicholson, as they bear the official
signature of Dioniisius Wright, who was Secretary to the Council. We now find the name of Faure under the following heading:

“A List of The Refugees Who are to Receive of Ye Miller of Falling Creek Mill One Bushel A Head of Indian Meale Monthly as Settled At Or About King Williams Town, to Begin in Feb, 1700-1. ”
“Efaure, his brother, and two sisters……….4”
“Rolle Des Francois, Suisses, Genevois, Alemans, Et Flamans Embarquest Dans Le Navire Nomme Le Nasseau pour Aller a la Virginia. Pierre Fferre, sa femme et un enfant.” (Virginia County Records Volume 7, p. 161 by Crozier.)

From the above we find Pierre Faure had a wife and child as well as two brothers and two sisters. The names of the two sisters cannot be ascertained. The brothers were Daniel and Jean (John).

One might expect the name FAURE found on the lists of Manakin Town settlers to change to the English word FORE, but not to FORD. However, stranger and more surprising changes than this have happened to many surnames. This tradition cannot be totally ignored nor discredited, nor can it be wholly without investigation of authentic evidence from other sources such as church or parish books, land grants and deeds and other court records. These should be read carefully and taken together with a reasonable Consideration of the local influences. The Frenchman, or any other continental European, coming into the English colonies, where all the clerks and office holders were Englishmen, we met with the tendency of the English to Anglicize all proper names. The many ways in which names were changed often produced meaningless names of unrecognizable origin. The individuals themselves, reacted variously to the process of this change in their name. Some clung tenaciously to the original forms, others spelled the name one way but pronounced it another, while others did not resent or resist changes either orthographically or phonetically far from the original. In each individual case of change in name no matter how
ordinary and logical or how extraordinary and unusual, it may be, it is
necessary to provide by authentic records that the family bearing the changed name is beyond a doubt the very same one which bore the former name. It is not a question of what can or cannot happen, but a question of what did actually happen in that one particular instance.

Reference to this change in name together with much data on the family was
published in the Huguenot Society book for the year 1936 volume 7. Before taking up the abstracts from the court records it may be advisable to review certain items which enter this specific problem. The land set aside “as the King’s donation to the French Refugees” was “to encourage the French to remain close to Manakin Town”. It is the opinion of persons who know the old records of this settlement intimately, that only French Huguenots were accorded the right to hold this land and to enjoy the special privileges for a number of years, such as freedom from taxes for seven years. Thus it is not until 1709 on the records of Henrico Court and 1715 upon the land grants books of the Colony of Virginia that these French settlers came into court to prove their importation, claim their headrights and take out their land patents. When they do appear on these books were find both the name of FAURE and FORD for grants within the lines defined and laid aside for the French Refugees. This is no surprise if you have
been reading the Henrico Court records from the year of 1700 down to 1715. Nor is it any shock to see that the land records slip Peter Ford into the shoes of Peter Faure or vice-versa.

Peter FORE and Peter FORD received grants in King William parish on the tracts set aside for the French Refugees as the Manakin Town settlement. The deeds in the court house show both names. To follow the land holdings under both names on the books we must recognize the location of this land set aside for the settlement and use the French Refugees, and included at that date within King William Parish. This has been most ably presented by Mr. Morgan P. Robinson, Archivist, of the Virginia State Library, in Volume XLIII, Number 1, of the Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, under “Henrico Parish of the Diocese of Virginia.” These lands were under the jurisdiction of the Court of Henrico County in 1700, when they were first designated and appropriated for this special use. But the lands actually lay in what we know as Powhatan County, Virginia, today. In 1728, this are came under the jurisdiction of the newly formed Court of Goochland, and in 1749 under the Court of Cumberland County and in 1777 became Powhatan. That is, all of the French tract excepting that part of it which now lies in Chesterfield County, Virginia. This part remained under the Court of Henrico County until 1749, when the Chesterfield Court was erected. Hence we must follow the French Settlers who lived within King William Parish,
in what is now Powhatan County, through this succession of court records to
trace their land holdings, and to stay with the Henrico records until 1749 for the families whose land was on the Chesterfield side of the present dividing line between that County and Powhatan County. The books of this period of Henrico County are in the Archives Division of the Virginia State Library. The land grants or patent books are in the Virginia State Land Office in the Capital. The Goochland, Cumberland, Powhatan and Chesterfield books are in their respective court houses.

The family of Daniel Fore lived on the Chesterfield side of the parish. The name FAURE, FOURE, FORE, and FORD runs through the records on the Powhatan side of the parish with all variations in spelling.

What became of Peter Fore (Foure) and his land grants? He dodges about on the tithing lists with Peter Ford from 1710 to 1734, neither appearing when the other is there. No inventory, or other vague or even fait sign of his death appears on the books. Peter Ford leaves a will, the original of which is in the court house at Goochland, Virginia. This will was written by some one else and Peter Ford signs with a tiny o for his mark. This is interesting when compared to the mark used by Peter Faure, a small o with a slight tail to it, in 1709.

In all this research particular attention has been paid to the spelling of the name under observation in each record and is given exactly as found in each instance. When the name appears two ways in one record it was found to be that very way in that record. The land grants to men by the name of FOURE, FORE, and FORD of King William Parish will be followed by the deeds relating to them.

The following Court Order of Henrico County: The court places the name of Peter Ford as one in the list of five men, any four of whom are to take an inventory of the estate of Jean Durran, deceased, in 1709. When the inventory is made and is returned to the court, Peter Fore has been one of the four men who responded to this order and as Peter Faure, with his characteristic French mark, he signs the inventory with his French neighbors.

Henrico County, Virginia Court Order Book (1707-1709) p. 138. “Court held May 2, 1709…A paper was produced in this Court by Jean Forcey as the nuncupative will of Jean Durran, deceased, and proved by the oaths of Peter Dutoy, James D….and Francis Bening….the motion was rejected…the Court presuming that said Jane died under coverture…and that Peter Durran her late or present husband is not yet dead…but for securing her estate to whom it does belong this Court orders that Stephen Mallett, Peter Ford, John Jones, James Shampane, Stephen Chastain, and four of them to appraise the estate and report to the next Court.”

Henrico County, Virginia Court Order Book (1707-1709) p. 154. “June 1, 1709 Jane Durands estate appraised on May 20, 1709 and returned by… Peter () Foure.”

Henrico County, Virginia Court Order Book (1707-1709) p. 169. “The appraisal of Jane Durand’s estate ordered May 2, 1709 and made May 20, 1709 and returned to the Court held June 1, 1709…” is signed by the four men of the five named by the court fur this duty…”

Note: This is signed, as usual, by the imitation of the original signatures.It is still customary in the courts to ask men who are nearest neighbors to make such inventories that it may not be a burden to them to perform this task. In the analysis of all of these data, please notice the neighbors of Peter Faure, Peter Fore, Peter Ford.

This same Court Order Book of Henrico County, Virginia, records many
importation’s of the French Refugees who now come into court with their
declaration and petitions to claim their headrights. Among these we find Peter
Foard.

Henrico County, Virginia Court Order Book (1707-1709) p. 154. June 1, 1709.
“…Upon the petition of Peter Foard…to certify that there is due to him 150 acres of land for the importation of himself and his wife Elizabeth and John Foard his son…”

This record shows that Peter Foard brought a wife and a child with him into the Colony. The King William Parish records show that a Pierre Faure was the elder brother of the Faure children of the Widow Faure. The above record is the clerk’s record and not a copy in his book of any special document. Hence he was not following a written statement.

Book 10 p.296 Oct. 31, 1716. George I, to Peter Foure. “107 acres, 1 rood, & 13 poles, in Henrico County on the south side of the James River; beginning at a small corner hiccory & elm standing on the river parting Stephen Chastain and Peter Foure thence on Chastain’s line w. 35 degrees s. 400 poles to corner white oak and hiccory standing near a small meadow thence e. 37 degrees n. 420 poles to a corner white oak & Hackberry standing on the river thence up the river according to the meanders 36 poles to the place begun at. It being part of the upper tract of the last 5000 acres of land surveyed for the French Refugees.”

Book 5 p. 552 Dec. 9, 1748. Daniel Ford of King William Parish, Goochland
County, Virginia sells to Peter Soblett; land described as …”all that
pllantation whereon the said Daniel Ford now lives situated and lying in King William Parish, Goochland County, Virginia, between the lines of the said Peter Soblett and lands of Daniel Perro…adjoining the James River, which said lands are bequeathed to the said Daniel by the will of his father…containing 107 acres, more or less.” Witnesses: John Harris, William Harris, Mary x Heughs.
Book 4 p. 146 Feb. 12, 1742. Goochland County, Virginia. Stephen Renno of King William Parish, same County sells to Daniel Perro of same place… “44 acres bounded at a corner white oak & Hackberry standing on the river parting Peter Ford and the said Renno’s lands thence on Foure’s line…”

Stephen Renno’s deed to Daniel Perro accounts for the change in name on the
boundary line shown on Daniel Ford’s deed to this land, and Stephen Renno’s
patent confirms this land as the patent of Peter Foure of 1715. Patent Book 10
p. 283 Stephen Renno’s patent dated March 23, 1715. “Lands in Kimg William
Parish, on the south side of the James River adjoining Peter Foure’s land…133
acres.”

The will of Peter Ford, dated April 17, 1744 and proved April 16, 1745, devised
this land referred to in Daniel’s deed, in these words “I give and bequeath to
my son Daniel Ford and his heirs forever the plantation whear I now live in
Mankin Ton on the River.” This carries the 107 acres from Peter Foure to Peter
Ford and down to Daniel Ford. This land was re residence of Peter Ford in 1744
and Daniel in 1748. (See will of Peter Ford.)

Daniel Ford inherited land from his brother John Ford. This land was also in the
posession of their father and devised by his will. This land is described as
lying on Jones’ Creek and contains 125 acres. In 1755, it ajoined lands of John
Harris, Peter Sublett and William Randolph.

Peter Fore received a patent dated July 19, 1735 for 125 acres adjoining the
said Peter Fore’s old bounds, James Robinson, Peter Sublett, Joseph Woodson,
William Randolph, Anthony Rapine. These names are repeated in the boundaries of
the deed of the Fords.

If you will closely follow these deeds and compare them with the land patents
and with the bequests made in the will of Peter Ford (1744) you will see that
the name Fore and Ford was used for and by the same individual, in the family
residing within King William Parish and by that family as they spread out. It
would appear that certain ones kept the name of Fore later and that others
preferred the English name of Ford. The following abstracts from the Deed Books
confirm this statement.

Book 1 p.66 March 17, 1728, Goochland County, Virginia. “Peter Foard of King
William Parish, planter, to my brother John Foard of St. James Parish…land on a
lane parting Peter Chastains’ land…” Witnesses: Joseph Bingley, Henry Blagrave,

Parish to Joseph Bingley… “land which was devised to the said John Foard by his
brother Peter Foard…150 acres beginning at a red oak tree parting Peter
Chastains lands from the said Fourds which is the upper part of the said survey
made by Peter Fourd and given to the said John Fourd.” Anne the wife of John
Fourd signs her dower rights in this land.
Book 1 p.233 Feb. 15, 1930. Goochland County, Virginia. Joseph Bingley sells
this 150 acres to James Robinson.

Book 4 p.361 Deed dated May 17, 1744. Goochland County, Virginia. John Harris of
Goochland County, Virginia sells to Alexander Speers of Henrico County,
Virginia… “150 acres of land on the south side of the James River by name of
Forks of the Road on the right hand leading up the county to Fine Creek and on

John Foard by deed March 17, 1728 and by several conveyances came to Charles
Taylor who by his will left it to his wife Mary who married George W…wood who
sold the land to the said Harris.”

Peter Foard signed his deed with the same small o that he used in signing his
will.

Book 1 p. 315 March 20, 1731. Goochland County, Virginia. James Ford, planter,
King William Parish, Goochland County to James Robinson… “95 acres on the south

Witnesses: Tarleton Fleming, Isaac Bates,…Bondurant.

The land grant to Peter Ford dated Jan. 13, 1725, for land on the west side of
Jones’ Creek for 350 acres, was the land he gave to his son James Ford by his
will as shown by the following deeds.

Book 5 p. 175 Jan. 31, 1745. Goochland County, Virginia. “William Battersby to
Stephen Renno…200 acres on the west side of Jones Creek, Goochland County,
whereon the said Battersby now dwells…bounded by land of the late Col. William
Randolph, dec’d … by the said Creek…and by the lands of James Fore.”

Deed Book 1 p. 471 December 17, 1751. Recorded in Cumberland County, Virginia.
“James Ford of King William Parish, Cumberland County, Virginia sells to Thomas
Prosser of Hanover Co., Va…land lying in King William Parish, Cumberland County,
Va. … being a part of a larger tract of land which was granted to Peter Ford and
by his will left to his son and said James Ford, as will be seen by reference to
records in Goochland County, Va…200 acres…beginning at a white oak in Thomas
Turpin’s line…and on the west side of Jones Creek.” On p.474 Ann the wife of the
said James Ford relinquished her dower in this land. Witnesses: Valentine Wood,
Tucker Woodson, David Murry, Gideon Marr. James Ford signed with a mark.
Recorded June Court 1752. This deed accounts for 200 acres of the 350 acre
grant.

The name Fore and Ford are found applied to the same person in the foregoing
deeds in the case of James Ford which fact when compared to the tithing lists
and the other records of James Ford (Fore) either spelling make him the same
identical person.

Peter Ford by his will, dated 1744, proved 1745, left to his son Peter Ford,
“300 acres of land on Matthews Branch where he now lives.” This land was granted
to Peter Ford by a patent dated Jan. 13, 1725. (Book 12 p.336) The whole tract
was for 400 acres. Peter Ford had sold 100 acres of this tract on Jan. 29, 1725
to Francis James. This 100 acres as well as the 300 acres again show in the
deeds the name of Fore and Ford for the same person. The following abstracts
are for this 400 acres in the division of the 100 acres and the 300 acres.

Book (1725-1737) pt 1. Henrico County, Virginia, records p.16. Deed dated
January 29, 1725 and acknowledged in Court on May 2, 1926, by Peter Ford of
Henrico County, Virginia who sells to Francis James of the same county, “for
divers good causes and 6… land lying on the south side of the James River and on
the east side of Jones Creek known as Matthew’s Branch…100 acres of land…”
Judith, wife of the said Peter Ford signs her dower rights on May 2, 1926.
Witnesses: Daniel Stoner, John Payne, Anthony Rapine.

Book 1 p.136 Oct. 21, 1729. Goochland County, Virginia. “Francis James of St.
James Parish, Goochland County, Va. Sells to William Lansdon and Hester his
wife…500 acres…100 acres of which was purchased by the said Francis James from
Peter Ford and Judith his wife by a deed acknowledged in court of Henrico County
on May 2, 1726…and 400 acres which was purchased from David Croom in 1723.”
Witnessed: Joseph Bingley.

The following deed was made during the time (1726-1729) when Francis James held
this 100 acres and the remaining 300 acres was still in possession of Peter Ford
(Fore) the patentee.

Book 1 p.12 June 11, 1728. Goochland County, Virginia. Matthew Agee of Goochland
Co. Va. Sells to John Smith, “…100 acres of land on the south side of the James
River along the east side of Matthews branch…and bounding on the lines of Edward
Maxey, Francis James and Peter Fore…”

In Peter Ford’s patent to this land, his land is further described as adjacent
to land of Daniel Croom. The deed of Francis James shows that he bought this
land from Croom in a previous deed.

Book 2 p.23 Nov. 27, 1752. Cumberland County, Virginia. Peter Fore of King
William Parish, Cumberland County, Virginia sells to Samuel Flourney… “land on
Matthews Branch…lying between the lines of James Smith, Peter Anthony Lookadoo,
Daniel Fore, Esther Lansdon, John Smith and Gideon Flourney…300 acres…it being
the land on which the said Peter Fore now liveth…” Mary the wife of the said
Peter Fore signs her dower rights in this land, witnesses: Bennett Goode, John
Bondurant, James Harris.

Peter Ford was living on this land in 1744 when his father devised it to him by
his will and Peter Fore is still living on it in 1752 when he sells it to Samuel
Flourney.

Book 1 p.79 May 12, 1729. Goochland County, Virginia. William Lansdon and Hester
his wife of St. James Parish said County sell to John Joseph Bingley, Matthew
Bingley and Henry Blagrave.

Book 1 p.426 August 21, 1733. Goochland County, Virginia. “William Lansdon &
Hester his wife sell to John Fore and to Stephen Fore of King William Parish,
Goochland County, VA… land on the south side of the James River…133 acres…lying
in King William Parish…beginning at a Walnut standing on the river parting
Stephen Reno and Capoon’s lands thence on Reno’s line…which said land is a part
of the last 5000 acres surveyed for the French Refugees and taken up by a patent
to John Jones dated March 23, 1715.” Witnesses: Stephen Chastain, Marmaduk Hix,
Thomas Turpin.

Hester Lansdon was the daughter of John Jones and her sister Elizabeth Jones,
was the wife of Anthony Bennan. John Jones was a neighbor of Peter Faure, Peter
Ford.

Book 5 p.261 May 19, 1747. Goochland County, Virginia. Stephen Ford of Parish of
Dale, Henrico County, Virginia to William Harris of King William Parish,
Goochland County, Va. “…a plantation in King William Parish on the south side of
the James River and on the upper side of Wm. Harris’ land…land which was left to
the said Ford…by will of his grandfather Renno and which now falls to said
Stephen as Heir-at-law…133 acres…part of a tract of 178 acres.” Ann the wife of
said Stephen signs her dower.

In the following deed may we call your attention to the grant of Peter Foure on
107 acres adjoining Stephen Chastain’s land which said 107 acres was devised by
Peter Ford in his will to his son Daniel Ford and on which land Peter Ford was
living in 1745 and Daniel was residing in 1752. (Peter Foure patent Oct. 31,
1716).

Benjamin Harris of Goochland County, Virginia, made a deed to Peter Sublett
dated July 24, 1745 for 95 acres on the south side of the James River adjoining
the river and along the lines of Peter Louis Sublett and the lines of Peter
Ford…as by a patent to Stephen Chastain and being transferred several times
until it came to Bennett Goode she conveyed it to the said Benjamin Harris.

Book 2 p.197 March 6, 1755. Cumberland County, Virginia. Daniel Ford of
Cumberland Co. Va. Makes over to John Pleasants Sr., and to John Pleasants Jr.,
the following land to secure a debt owing by him to the said Pleasants… “land
which was left to the said Daniel Ford by the will of his brother John Ford,
deceased, 125 acres on Jones Creek bounded by the lands of John Harris, Peter
Sublett and William Randolph.” Witnesses: Robert Rutledge, John Epperson, James
Pleasants. No wife signs a dower. (See the will of Peter Ford, to his sone John,
in 1745 and of John Ford, dated 1753, and the grant of Peter Fore for 125 acres,
July 19, 1735.) (Patent Book 16 p.42).

The examination of the land books, court order books and the wills recorded in
the several counties quoted whose courts held jurisdiction over King William
Parish, now in Powhatan County, Virginia confirms this unusual change in the
name Fuare, or Foure, to Fore and to Foard, Ford, in the particular instance of
the family residing in King William Parish, Virginia. We can see where as time
went on certain descendants of Peter Foure (Ford) retained the name of Fore
while others changed their name to Ford (Foard). The family that removed to
Buckingham County have kept this tradition of the origin of their name as being
the French name, Foure, handing it down in their family to the present day. The
records of King William Parish both in the parish books and on the court records
testify to the fact upon which they have based this tradition.

The data given under the Faure-Fore-Ford family deals mainly with this family
residing within the limits of King William Parish on the land “donated to the
French settlers to encourage them to remain close to Manakin Town.” Data on
Daniel Fore of Chesterfield County, not shown.

Pierre Faure was allowed to draw supplies for his brothers and sisters and a
Pierre Ferre and his wife and child came over on the Nassu in 1700/1. (Huguenot
#7 p.192).

Peter Ford and his wife Elizabeth and their son John declare their importation
in 1709 along with many other of the French men of Mamakin Twon. The records
show that the land patents of both Peter Fore and Peter Ford come down to the
family of Peter Ford who died testate in 1745. The records of Henrico, Goochland
and Cumberland Counties show that the descendents of Peter Fore (Peter Ford)
were by both names in later generations.

The study of the land grants made to Peter Fore, and to Peter Ford together with
the deeds under both spellings of the last name and the will of Peter Ford
(dated April 16, 1745) give us his sons and daughters and show that their
descendents carried down the two spellings of this name. The following abstracts
from the records of certain Virginia Court houses help to identify these
descendents and the descendents of his brother John Fore to whom he made a deed
for 150 acres of land in 1729. (Huguenot #7 Faure-Fore-Ford).

Peter Ford who died testate in 1745 left the following children: John Ford, who
died testate in 1753, no wife or children named in his will, all property left
to his brothers and sisters. Daniel Ford who inherited the home place of his
father, 107 acres, which he sold in 1748 to Peter Sublett; and later inherited
from his brother John Ford the 125 acres on Jones Creek, which he mortgaged to
John Pleasants in 1755.
Peter Ford who inherited the 300 acres from the grant of 400 acres, which he
sold to Samuel Flourney in 1752. Peter’s wife was named Mary in 1752.
James Ford who inherited 200 acres from his father, he and his wife Anne sold
this land on Jones Creek in 1751 to Thomas Prosser.
Judith Ford who married John Leake after 1745 and
Mary Ford who married William Fuqua after 1745.

The children of John Ford, the elder, brother of Peter Ford, the elder, also
carried the name as Fore and Ford.

Albemarle County, Virginia Records: Book 1 p.371 Oct. 17, 1751. James Ford of
King William Parish, Cumberland County, Va. to Mary Agee and her husband James
Agee of St. Ann’s Parish, Albemarle County, Va. “for the love and affection he
hath for his said daugher and son-in-law…200 acres in St. Ann’s Parish on
Huberd’s Creek…” Witnesses: Daniel Ford, and John Beasley. Signed James ( )
Fore. (Note the signature on this deed which is written in the name of James
Ford. He signs it James Fore.)

Book 3 p. 14 dated 1761 Matthew Agee to his son James Agee land on Hubbard’s
Creek adj. James Ford, Witnesses: Shelton Raile, Chas. Garrett and James ( )
Ford.

Book 3 p.15 James Ford of Tilletson Parish, Albermarle County, Virginia. “… for
divers good causes and valuable consideration to Anne Chastain…100 acres in
Albemarle County, VA…on Slate River…Feb. 28, 1761. Witnessed: Chas. May.

The foregoing deed is indexed as a deed of gift, signed by James ( ) Ford. James
Ford had sold his home place in King William Parish, Cumberland (now Powhatan)
County in 1751 to Thomas Prosser and by his deed to his daughter Mary Agee was
“of King William Parish, Cumberland County, in 1751.” He removed before 1761 to
Albemarle County, Virginia. Tilletson Parish of Albemarle County became
Buckingham County when that County was formed in 1761. So we see that James Fore
removed to AlbemarleCounty, Virginia from King William Parish, Cumberland
County, Virginia when he sold his home place which he had inherited from his
father Peter Fore (Ford).

Book 2 p.8 March 8, 1768. John Bondurant Sr., of King William Parish, Cumberland
County, Virginia makes a deed of gift to his son John for land on Slate River
granted to said John Sr., in 1746...200 acres. Witnesses: James Ford and Ann
Ford.
Book 2 p.175 April 11, 1759. Peter Bondurant of Cumberland County, Virginia to

Ford, Chas. May and Martin Benien. (Huguenot #8 K.C. Gottschalk; Valentine

WIDOW FAURE
On the Mary Ann, which arrived at James City, Virginia July 31, 1700 after a
passage of about 13 weeks was Widow Faure and four infants, two sons and two
daughters. (Any child under 21 years was considered an infant.) This Widow Faure
whose husband died before they left London or during the long voyage over is
supposed to be the mother of Pierre Faure. The two sons were Daniel and Jean.
The daughters names are not known. (Va. County Records by Crozier).

Pierre Faure was the son of “Widow Faure.” It is to be presumed that the
husband died either before the start from England or during the voyage. (see
page 11) Pierre Faure was the son of Daniel Isaac Faure and Mary Chastain (Widow
Faure). (From Huguenot #7; letter of Miss Josephine Dupuy who has record of Ford
family Bible, member of Huguenot Society Founders of Manakin Town.)

DANIEL FAURE, BROTHER OF PIERRE FAURE, SR.
“From the land grants at Richmond we find that a grant of 296 acres was given
Daniel Faure the 3d day of March, 1715, the said land lying chiefly in Henrico
County.” (Book 10 p.285).

In the Vestry Book of King William Parish, Manakin Town, under date of a Vestry
assembled 25 August 1718 the ‘Sieur Daniel Faure is elected a vestryman.’ As
Pierre Faure was not granted land until 1716, and then only 107 acres, it is
almost impossible that his son Daniel should have had a large grant of 296 acres
given him a year ahead of his father, and he was too young to have been a
Vestryman in 1718.

The name of Daniel Faure is found on the list of Tithables in King William
Parish from the year 1717-1736. During the later years it is more than likely
that Daniel, the son of Peter, is meant. While no will of Daniel Faure can be
found, it is extremely probable that he was a brother of Pierre, Snr., and
Daniel, the son of Pierre, was named after his uncle.

JEAN FAURE, BROTHER OF PIERRE FAURE, SR.
We have ample evidence to show that Jean (John) Faure was also a brother of
Pierre Faure, Snr. In the Vestry Book of King William Parish, Jean and Pierre
Faure are on the list of Tithables for the year 1713, and in1717 Daniel Faure is
included.

There is no grant of land recorded in the Land Office to John Faure until the
year 1742 when in conjunction with Thomas Vann he was granted 178 acres in
Henrico County. (Book 20 p.339) In the County Records for Goochland, we drive
the information that Pierre and Jean were brothers: “Conveyance from Peter Ford,
Snr., King William Parish, Goochland County, planter, 7 March 1728 to my dear
and well beloved brother John Ford of the Parish of St. James, County afsd., 150
acres of land in sd Parish of St. James.”

From the Parish Register of Manakin Town we find the following entries:
1 March 1721/2 Jean Faure godfather to Elizabeth Morriset. (p.17) 12 Dec. 1728,
was born a boy to Jean Faure. (p.22). There is no further entries in the Parish
Registers under the name of John Faure. It is evident that after selling the
land, the gift of his brother, that John moved to Henrico County, where he died
about the year 1748.

WILL OF JOHN FORE
In the name of God, Amen.
I, John Fore, of King William Parish, County of Henrico, being very sick, do
make this my last will and testament, etc: I give to my loving wife Mary the use
of the Plantation I now live on during her widowhood, and the use of all my
slaves and personal estate until my children come of lawful age.
Item: I give to my daughter Elizabeth forty pounds, to be raised out of my
estate, and a bed and a cow and a calf.
Item: I give to my daughter Mary a negro girl named Sarah, and a bed and a cow
and calf.
Item: I give to my son John all my lands that I am Possessed of and the land I
greeed with Captain John Nash for, I give to him and his heirs.
I appoint my wife Mary my who extx. And Robert Goode, my truly friend, to be
guardian to my children.

It will be seen that from the existing records, John Faure, the brother of
Peter, married a Mary ________, by whom he had issue:
1. John, probably born 12 December 1728
2. Elizabeth
3. Mary

There is nothing further concerning the children of John Faure in the records of
Henrico County, and it is likely that they removed with other members of the
family to Buckingham County, Virginia. (Virginia County Records by Crozier,
volume 7).

PIERRE FAURE, SR.
Peter Faure, son of Daniel Isaac Faure and Mary Chastain, grandson of Isaac and
Mary Ann Thiboult. Peter was born about 1675 in France, married Elizabeth Agar
(Agee) born about 1677 in France. One of the founders of Manakin Town. Children
of Peter Ford and Elizabeth Agee: Peter Ford, James Ford, Judith Ford, Mary
Ford. (This record sent to this compiler by Miss Josephine Dupuy, member of
Huguenot Society Founders of Manakin Town; from Ford Family Bible; Ayers Family
Bible; Huguenot records.)
PIERRE FAURE, SR.
Pierre Faure, Sr., his wife Elizabeth, and a son, Jean sailed on yet first ship,
la Nasseau and landed at James Town March 5, 1701. Pierre Faure and family
settled in the Manakin Town. His coat of arms show that he was from the Faure
family of Auvergne, France.

In the Vestry Book of King William Parish 1710-1738, translated from the French,
we find Pierre paying tithes only on himself until 1713 when he paid on his
oldest son, John, who was born in 1697.
In 1717 he pays tithe on Daniel, born 1701.
In 1723 he pays tithe on Peter, born 1706.
In 1724 he pays tithe on James, born 1708.
Pierre Faure and wife Elizabeth had two daughters:
Mary, who married William Fuqua.
Judith, who married John Leake.

The Virginia Law, … The Assembly expressly exempted all women from payment of
tithes, except slaves or servants over 16 years of age who were capable of doing
work in the field. All men of whatever rank or station over 16 years of age were
regarded as tithable, only the Clergy and members of the Council being exempt.
The tithe was 10 shillings and one half pence.

Pierre Faure, Sr., was a member of the Vestry of the French Refugee Church from
1731 to 1744, when he asked his discharge which was granted.

Sept. 30, 1732 The Vestry assembled, present were Estine Chastin, Gile Allaigr,
Pierre Faure, Pierre Loouys Soblet, Guileaume Salle, and Jean Jaque Dupin.

The Surr’s Pierre Faure and Andre Amonet took the oath of Church Wardens in the
presence of the Vestry named above. (Virginia Magazine of History & Biography
volume 11,12,13).

The sight of this first church is in Manakin Town, Powhatan County, Virginia
south of the James River. The fourth church now stands near the sight of this
first church.

Peter Fuare was naturalized May 12, 1705 (Legislative Journals Volume 1
p.421-8).

Note: Pierre, Joseph, Archelaus and William were sons of Pierre Faure, Jr., and
Marie. All went to Kentucky except Archelaus. Joseph and William had families born in Prince Edward County, Virginia. Three other sons not on the Register of King William Parish were:
Hezekiah
Jesse
Silas

In the old tax record of Buckingham County, Virginia how in the Virginia State Library, Richmond, Virginia, in District #2, is found the names of Joseph Ford, William Ford. These are carried on the tax book as of Prince Edward County, Va., thereafter spelled Fore.

In 1814 is found the name of Stephen Fore, in District #2, and Peter Fore lives at Stephen Fore’s Residence. These were the sons of Pierre Faure the second, and this proves that the sons of Pierre Faure, the emigrant, come down through his two sons, Peter, born in Henrico County, Virginia in 1706 and James (Jaque) born in Henrico County, Virginia 1708.

JAQUE FAURE, SR. (JAMES)
Jaque Faure, Sr. born 1708 died 1810, (102 years at death) son of Pierre Faure and his wife Elizabeth, Emigrant who arrived in Virginia on la Nasseau in the York River, March 5, 1701, settled in King William Parish, Manakin Town.

Jean Pierre Bondurant arrived in Virginia on the “Peter and Anthony”, ye 20th of Sept’r 1700.” Jean Pierre Bondurant married Anne after he arrived in America as the ships list does not show that he had a wife at that time. He was a prominent planter and large land owner of Henrico County. He was a member of the Vestry of King William Parish in 1731-32 and elected again November 23, 1734.

(King William Parish Resigter)

When the name is recorded by a member of the Huguenot Colony it is always
spelled in the French Faure.

When Goochland County was formed from Henrico County in 1727 the Faures’ found themselves in this new County. By this time the name began to be anglicized and recorded as Ford. When this part of Goochland County was cut off to form Cumberland County, Virginia in 1748, the Fords’ were then in Cumberland County.

James Ford, Sr. had sold his home place in King William Parish, Cumberland (now Powhatan) County in 1751 to Thomas Prosser and by his deed to his daughter Mary Agee was “of King William Parish, Cumberland County in 1751. Between December 17, 1751 and February 28, 1761 James Faure, Ford moves up the James River to his grant of 1600 acres in Albemmarle County, Virginia, Tilletson Parish. Then Tilletson Parish, Albemarle County, Virginia was cut off to form Buckingham County, Virginia in 1761, James Ford and his family were living in this new county without having changed their residence; where they lived until some of them began to move westward.

James Ford and his family settled on his grant of 1600 acres while his children acquired other land besides this. The Buckingham County Court Hose was burned soon after the Civil War about 1869 and all records in it at that time were destroyed. A Surveyor “plat Book” has been found since of which there is a photostat copy in the present Court House. In this is found the record of some surveys made for different members of the Ford family; one of the surveys of 72 acres of land the grant for which had been made for James Ford, Jr. His son James Ford at this time (1814) designated as James Jr. fell heir to it either by a deed or gift or sale.

Old tax books of Buckingham County, Virginia are now in the Virginia State
Library, Richmond, Virginia. These run for over a period of several years “The Land Roll” Book beginning with 1782. Another Book designated as “Personal Tax Book”; there are three lists, 1782 to 1789; 1790 to 1797; 1798 to 1805. These books are divided into two districts; District #1 and District #2. In District #1 we find the family of James Ford, Sr., along with his three sons, Peter, Boaz, and James, Jr.

On the first tax list 1782 “Land Roll” of Buckingham County, Virginia now in the Virginia State Library we find: James Ford, Sr. (now 74 years old) paying taxes on 100 acres of land’ Peter Ford on 505 acres; Boaz Ford on 400 acres; James Ford, Jr. on 400 acres. These amounts vary from time to time except James Ford, Jr. who pays on 400 acres until the time of his death in 1787.

After 1793 James Ford, Sr., appears on the tax list as exempt. This was perhaps on account of his extreme old age and afflication.

FRENCH AND INDIAN WARD 1754
In the Journals of the House of Burgesses of Virginia 1770-1772 p.31, we find the following: Tuesday the 29th of May to Goerge III 1770, A petition of James Ford was presented to the house and read; “setting forth, that the petitioner being in the service of the Colony, at the Battle of the Meadows in the year 1754, received a wound in his right eye, by a musket ball which deprived him of the sight thereof and that he is growing old, and become weak and therefore praying the House to take his condition into consideration and grant relief.

Ordered, that the said petition be referred to the consideration of the
Committee of Public Claims; and that they do examine the matter thereof, and report the same, with their opinion thereupon to the House.”

Page 49, Wed. the 6th of June to George III 1770. Resolved, that it is of the opinion of this Committee, that the Petition of James Ford, late soldier in the service of the Colony, under the command of Col. Washington, is reasonable; and that he ought to be allowed the sum of five pounds for his present relief; and the future sum of five pounds per annum during his life in consideration of the wound he received at the Battle of the Meadows and his being thereby rendered incapable of getting as necessary substance.

AGEE (Des Ages) MATHEW AGEE

Mathieu Agee, or Age, is the progenitor of all the Agee family in America. He was born in France in 1660, and died in Virginia 1741.
