We know little about Edward
Moulson. He was in Virginia by 1635. His 1660 depositon states
that he was aged 70 so born ca. 1590. Later secondary sources
say that Mallson was a cooper,
but he was a sawyer according to the deed records. He
paid
for some land with sawn boards and is referred to as a sawyer.
Deed.
20 Nov 1635. John Utie of Utimaria Esqr sells Edward Moulson,
Sawyer, 100 acres
between the land of Francis Morgan and Mr William
Pryor. Payment being 1000 ft ‘Sawen Boards’ already
received and 800 ft more to be paid between this and 1st of March.
He was also the
father in law of John Lilly I.
Please note DNA Test Results. We
have a match between a Lilly descendant and a person who claims descent
from Mary Lilly and Robert Reade. This is important because of the
confusion surrounding this deed. It is not absolutely clear what the
connection is. This is pretty far back for a DNA connection but
possible.
The
following record seems to say that the wife of John Lilly I,
i.e., the mother of John Lilly II, was the heiress of Edward
Moulson/Malson. Unfortunately, the wording of following patent is not
clear.
There are several errors in the land descriptions which do
not match other earlier
records. What is clear is that the land is in York Parish, York
County,
near the area where John Lilly was inspecting tobacco in 1639. There
have been arguments between genealogists as to what is going
on. Because
it is not clear, we
looked at the actual patent. Nugent is normally absolutely
reliable,
but in this case, we felt that we needed to know for sure what it said.
Unfortunately, the actual patent says pretty much what Nugent's
abstract says. The errors are in the patent itself, not in the
transcription. There are enough of these descrepancies in the
actual patent that we are not sure
we can depend on the rest of the patent's details.

This patent raises
some basic
questions. Who is Edward Mallson's heiress and which John Lilly did she
marry and which John is Mary's father? There are three John
Lilly's in the 1600s prior to 1688 in York County, Virginia.
John Lilly III was born ca. 1669
when he was baptized in the Charles
Parish Church. He would have been only about 19 when the above
patent
was written in 1688 so this John Lilly III could not have married
and had a daughter old enough to marry in 1688 no matter how you
stretch it with early marriages and late baptisms.
John Lilly II was born between
1637 to 1646 so he would have been old enough to marry the
heiress. But he married Dorothy Wade, the daughter
of Armiger Wade. We know this because "My daughter, Dorothy Lilly,
and my son, John Lilly," are named in the 1677 will of her father,
Armiger Wade. It has been assumed for many years that Dorothy
Wade, the wife of
Armiger Wade, was actually Dorothy Maulson. However, a recent
discovery of the 1639 marriage of Amirger Wade to Dorothy Halsby/Halsey
in London has pretty much eliminated this as a theory. We have
these two marrying a mile or two from the church where Armiger Wade
junior in baptized. It is too much of a coincidence to say there
are two
Dorothy's marrying two Armiger Wades and both had a son, Armiger
junior,
the same age. For more on this group, see Wade
Family.
That leaves us with John
Lilly I.
He is the only John Lilly to whom
the patent could refer. We are not sure at this time
exactly how this worked. Edward Malson was living in York in
1660. He left no estate records in York although
he had land in York. But he might have moved to Gloucester, to be near
John Lilly and his family. Whatever records he left did not
survive.
We don't know if the land went to Mary Chisman who left it to her
granddaughter or if Edward left it to his son in law, John Lilly, who
left it to his daughter, in a will which did not survive.
Remember that the Gloucester County records did not
survive. It is clear that, however the land was
inherited, the only John Lilly who could have married Edward
Moulson's daughter was John Lilly I.
Edward Malson was born ca.
1590
according to his depositon in 1660 when he was aged 70. If he had
a daughter when he was aged 25-30, she would have been born ca.
1615-20. John Lilly I was born ca. 1607 and he married before he came
to Virginia ca., 1637, and had a son between that date and the 1646
guardianship record. So the timing of all of these known facts
fits
together.
Just to make sure of our legal
position, not being experts in the Law of Primogeniture or Colonial
Law, Lou Poole talked to an expert in the field. This expert said
that Mary (Lilly) Reade had no legal right to the land that Robert
Reade was claiming unless she had obtained it as a deed of gift, or
through someone’s will. That is to say, she only had a legal
claim on the land through some transference instrument like a deed of
gift or a will. Whoever gave it to her, it is very clear that
we’re missing a key record or records– the deed of gift,
the will, or both ?? I believe that the person who left the land
died in Gloucester and the records of the estate did not survive. It
was not necessary for the record to be registered in York County, even
if the land was in York County. See the following:
"Tips
for Genealogists", Jo White
Linn, CG, Rowan County Register,
Volume 1, no. 2, May 1986, 78.
If a man died in County A, for
example, devising land which then fell into county B, there will not be
a grantee deed in county B to show the transmittal of that property,
and the will was not required to be filed in the county where the land
lay.
So it is possible that we are
missing a conveyance via deed or will which was originally from
Gloucester County with its burned records. However, perhaps we are not
missing a conveyance. If Mary
(Moulson) (Lilly)
Chisman, got it from her father via law of primogeniture and
if John got it via law of primogeniture from his mother, there
would have been no record of conveyance. It is hard to get my
mind wrapped around the idea that land and estates were transferred
with
no record. None of this would have been required to be registered
in
the court. Only transactions which were NOT according to the law of
primogeniture were required to be registered.
We don't know if the land was
given to John or Mary who gave it to John. However, there is one
clue to the
timing. In the many records left by John Lilly II, he is referred
to as a landlord of York County land in a 1670 court record. Edward
Malson seems to have disappeared from the records after 1660 when he
was aged 70 and probably died. If so, and John Lilly inherited
the land either directly from Edward or by a gift from his mother or
father in law, it
would explain how he came to own land in 1670. This could very
well refer to part of the land which is referred to in the 1688 patent.
Courtesy
of Lou Poole:
Note this is the first [and only] mention
of John
Lilly owning land in York County
in addition to his patent. Gloucester was formed in 1651, and his land
was there, so it it could not be referring to a part of his
patent. He obviously owned this land by 1670. It is just
possible
that John was holding this land in trust for his daughter at this
point.
Weisiger,
Benjamin B. III, York
County, Virginia, Records, 1665-1672, p. 220.
John
Lilly appeared in three York County court records dated
December 1670 and January 1671:
Page 220: Mr. Edward Palmer, Mr.
Edward
Mosse, Mr. Nicholas Clarke and Mr. John Lawson are to view tobacco
and
sider [sic] tendered by Charles Camell for rent for use of Mr. John
Lilly, his landlord, to see if it is according
to
lease.
Page
225: Upon report of Mr. Edward Palmer, Nicholas Clarke, Edward Mosse
and John Lawson, appointed to view
the
sider and tobacco tendered by Charles Camell for rent to Mr. John
Lilly, they find it is not according to
the
lease, and it is ordered said Camell pay Lilly 1000 lbs tob. for 2
years rent, and he is to continue on the
plantation
this year, but one default, and he is to leave.
Page
230: Dec. 1671. We, appointed to view tobacco and cyder ordered by
Charles Camell to his landlord Mr. Lilly,
find
the syder not to be according to the lease, neither is it the worst
that we have drunk, and for tobacco, we
saw
none. Signed: Edward (mark) Palmer, Nicholas Clarke, Edward Mosse, John
(mark) Lawson.
In the end how this happened is not
so important. We know John Lilly I is the
only John Lilly who
could have married the daughter of Edward Malson.
The third question is who is the father of Mary
(Lilly) Reade?
She is referred to as the daughter of John Lilly. Again John Lilly III
is only 19 at this date so too young to be
her father. If she was a daughter of John Lilly I, she would have
had to have been born by 1646 and probably earlier, but at least
by 1646 when her father was deceased. This would have made her aged
44-48 in 1688. The wills of Mary and Robert Reade, her
husband, mention minor children when they died much later. If she
was the daughter of John Lilly I, she had minor children when she
died at the age of about 70. This is not
possible. [See Reade will below.] We are left this time with John
Lilly II as the
only John Lilly who could have been the father of Mary
(Lilly) Reade.
If Mary was the daughter of John
Lilly II, and, as we have seen elsewhere, he also had a daughter,
Elizabeth, why did Mary end up with all of Malson's land? An
examination of the land records below show that all but 50 acres of
Malson's land is in the 1688 patent. Elizabeth married much later
so may have been quite a bit younger. I think it is odd that John
Lilly II would have left all of this land to one daughter and nothing
to the second daughter. This is not something that can be easily
explained. However, it is clear from the 1703 record that Elizabeth had
property in some form. The most common form of property in
Colonial Virginia was land and/or slaves.
Louise Pacquet du Bellet, Some
Prominent Virginia Families,
Vol. IV, p. 9. (1907)
“Robert
Reade, Justice of York Co., lived near Yorktown; married Mary, daughter
of John Lily,[1] whose wife was heiress of Edward Mallion*, a
cooper. (Deed dated Jan 1693…
*
Note – Edward Mallion was born 1590 and his wife, Margaret, in
1603. Robert Reade’s daughter, Margaret, who married Thomas
Nelson, was supposedly named after her.
I am speculating here because we
simply do not have the records to prove who gave what to whom. At
this point, I do not think the needed records survived. Du
Bellet refers to a deed in 1693. The only Lilly deed in this time
frame is the following. Note that is says nothing about Malson or John
Lilly.
“P. 314” – Dorman, John
Frederick, York County, Virginia Deeds, Orders, Wills, Etc., No. 9,
1691-1694, Part Two, p. 89.
“Mr.
Robert Read and Mary his wife their deed of settlement of 305 acres of
land upon their children &c 8 Jan 1693 [1694] was acknowledged by
them both.”
William and Mary Quarterly, Series 1, Volume 2, October 1892.
This article repeats some of the same information again calling Edward
a
cooper.
You will note from his earliest
deed in 1635 that Edward was a sawyer. He might also
have been a cooper, because barrels were made of wood, but I have found
no contemporary statement in a record that he was a cooper. This has
been added in secondary sources.
Will
of Robert Reade, husband of Mary Lilly, 1712
The 1712 will
of Robert Reade suggests that he is older than his wife and that they
only married shortly before the 1686 patent. In the will he makes
it clear that only one of his sons, John, was an adult, that only one
of his
two daughters was married, and at least two (and possibly three) of his
sons were still minors.

Maulson/Malson
Records
` There are not all that many records with the
Moulson name in Virginia in
this
time frame. I have put all of them here in one place for you so
you can make up your own mind. There are a number
of differnt spellings. Fortunately for us, the provenance of
the two
tracts of land having to do with Edward Malson were recorded in
York County records. The third part is a new patent so is not
important in tracing Edward Moulson. Great thanks are due Lou
Poole for locating these, transcribing them and sending them to me.
The first two records are the basis for the 1688 patent.
If you examine it closely you will see enough errors to give you
pause. It makes me wonder how much we can rely on the other
details of the patent.
