Clues on John Simpson:

Alexander Simson, age 10, appears on a list of tobacco tenders in Overwharton Parish, Stafford County, Virginia, in 1724 (Stafford County, Virginia Thithables, 1723-1790, by John Vogt & T. William Kethley, Jr., p. 32). Also, the will of one John Simpson of Stafford County, executed and probated in 1756, mentions a legatee Alexander Simpson (no relationship stated) (Stafford County, Liber O, p. 321, abstracted in Will Abstracts of Stafford County, Virginia, 1748-1767, by Ruth & Sam Sparacio). Finally, one John Simpson was granted administration of the estate of one Alexander Simpson in 1793 (Stafford County, Scheme Book L & D, p. 436, abstracted in Deed and Will Abstracts of Stafford County, Virginia, 1780-1786, by Ruth & Sam Sparacio).

A John Simpson ("of Overwharton Parish") married Elizabeth NAYLOR ("of Brunswick Parish") in St. Paul's Parish, Virginia, on August 6, 1735 (The Register of Saint Paul's Parish 1715-1798, by George H.S. King, p. 124). Overwharton Parish was in Stafford County, Virginia, and Brunswick Parish was in King George County, Virginia. Although some sources say that St. Paul's Parish was in King George County, the modern St. Paul's Episcopal Parish has told me (by letter in May 1999) that the parish was in Stafford County in 1735, but that it fell into King George County when the boundaries of the two counties were realigned in 1776.
