Notes

Tax lists for King and Queen [VSL] show Henry GARNETT in 1814 owned 1,480 acres on the Mattaponi adjoining Robert JONES, John J. GARNETT [first cousin], and C. GATEWOOD. This plantation, among the larger ones in the county, was located just down river from Hillsboro [Henley] . From Bagby's History of King and Queen, the following appears: "Rickahoc: The interior of the house was painted in imitation of the President's house in Washington. The building was one with four rooms and a wide hall on the first floor. The roof was very steep and the upper rooms were large and comfortable. The grounds were well laid out and the approach to the river though steep was graded and well kept ." Captain Henry GARNETT's obituary [June 7, 1815] "Adopted farming, a man of large business capacity and was perhaps the most active energetic businessman in his county and remarkably successful in all his adventures. He enjoyed, in unlimited degree, the confidence of the people and had unlimited command of capital which he used to great advantage. He resided at the time of his death at "Rickahoc", one of the old time aristocratic mansions of the Mattaponi River in the County of King and Queen." In September, 1815, an insurance policy was taken out on the home of the "late Henry GARNETT" by the executors of his estate. These executors were his father-in-law, Frances BUCKNER, and his brothers Thomas and James GARNETT. The plantation was described being occupied by "said Garnett's negroes---situated between the lands of Nathan Gregory to the South and East---Robert Jones and Hundley to the North and the mill pond to the West." The house was valued at $2,000.
