    The tombstone of his daughter Lucy, died Nov. 6, 1675, and who is buried at Fairfield, the old Burwell homestead on Carter's Creek, Gloucester, stated that "she was ye only daughter of the valliant Capt. Robert Higginson. One of the first command'rs that subdued the county of Virginia from the power of the heathen," and that "she was descended from the Ancient family of the Higginsons" (Va.
