John Price at Neck of Land, Charles City, 1623/4, being listed there in the muster, 1624/5, aged 21. She married (2), before 1636, 1. Robert Hallom and (3), probably by 1640, Daniel Llewellyn, who was in Virginia by 19 Sept. 1633 when he was claimed as a headright by Capt. William Perry.

    Daniel Llewellyn, Gent., received a patent, 27 Oct. 1642, for 856 acres on the "Upper branches of Turkey Island Creek" and adjacent to "Mr. Aston's land", in which he claimed among 17 headrights Robert Hallome and Francis Hallome.

    As shown in the account of the Hallom family, he (Daniel Llewellen) had by 1645/6 taken over the management of their affairs in Virginia. He served as Burgess from Henrico, 1643-44, and from Charles City, 1646, 1652 and 1656, was a justice of Charles City, 1650/1, captain of militia, and was sworn as sheriff of Charles City, 3 April 1656. His will, 6 Feb. 1663/4 - 11 March 1663/4, was made while a resident of Chelmsford, County Essex, England. He left land in Charles City County to his wife Anne for life, then to his son Daniel, servants to Daniel Jr.'s sister Martha Jones, 50 shillings for a ring to daughter Margaret Cruse and to her husband, and directed that he should be buried in the parish church at Chelmsford "near the Reading deske".
