Notes
Records in Virginia (From Westmoreland County, Virginia, Free African Americans with Westmoreland Roots)::
- Margaret Redley was presented by the churchwardens of Washington Parish, Westmoreland County, Virginia, on 28 June 1710 for having a bastard child. She may have been identical to "Margrett a Servt. to Calleb Butler" who was presented by the churchwardens of Washington Parish on 28 May 1707 and 22 February 1710 for "fornication & haveing a Mulatto bastard”. On 24 June 1713 she and Edward Buss "a Mulatto" were presented by the grand jury for fornication and cohabiting together [Orders 1705 – 21, 58, 66, 136a, 140a, 143a, 145a, 155a, 217]. She was probably the mother of:
- Moses Redley, born about 1710, owned land in Orange County, North Carolina, adjoining George Gibson and Thomas Collins [Orange County Loose Papers, vol. V, no. 131; vol.VI, no. 579]. He and his wife Mary were "Mulatto" Orange County taxables in 1755 [N.C. Archives T&C 1, p. 8]. He was called a poor debtor in February 1761 when William Chavis sued him in Orange County court [Haun, Orange County Court Minutes, 1:459]. He was probably related to Moses Ridle, an "Indian" tithable in John Wilson's Pittsylvania County tax list for 1767.
