William Randolph (bapt. 7 November 1650–11 April 1711) was a colonist and land owner who played an important role in the history and government of the Commonwealth of Virginia. He moved to Virginia sometime between 1669 and 1673, and married Mary Isham (ca. 1659–29 December 1735) a few years later. His descendants include several prominent individuals, including Thomas Jefferson, John Marshall, Robert E. Lee, and John Randolph of Roanoke. Genealogists have taken an interest in him for his progeny's many marital alliances, referring to him and Mary Isham as "the Adam and Eve of Virginia".

Of "Turkey Island" - Henrico County, VA. Moved to Henrico County, VA from Warwickshire, England in 1672. Was Clerk of the Court in Henrico County in 1673. Rose from Captain to Colonel in the Virginia Militia.
