Notes

Old Churches, Ministers, and Families of Virginia. Article XXXV. "The Rev. Lewis Latane fled from France to England after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, in October, 1685, and remained there until the year 1700. He was ordained Deacon, September 22, and Priest, October 18, of that year; reached Virginia, March 5, 1701, and took charge of the parish of South Farnham, April 5 of that year.

He was married once before he came to this country, and twice afterward. His third wife, of whom alone any thing is known, was Miss Mary Dean, a relative and protégé of Mr. William Beverley, of Blandfield, in Essex county, and of the adjoining parish of St. Anne's.

Mr. Latane died in 1732, leaving a widow, and one son named John, and five daughters. In his will we have the following characteristic trait of him:--'My will is, that whatsoever I am justly indebted to any person be duly paid by my executor; and whereas Mrs. Ph&1;be Kater, in her last will and testament, disposed of such things to my daughters C., P., and S., as were not in her power to give, my will is that none of my said daughters shall have any of the said legacies paid them. But, if any of them shall be so refractory as to insist on having any of the said legacies paid them, then I give to each of my said daughters twelvepence, in full of all the legacies hereafter in this my will to them given and bequeathed.' "

"Faithfully have the descendants of this upright and conscientious man followed the example of his integrity. Perhaps there is no instance to be found in Virginia, where a whole family have been more remarkable for truth and fidelity in all their dealings and character.

John, his only surviving son, married a Miss Mary Allen. William, his only surviving son, married a Miss Ann Waring, leaving a large number of sons and daughters.

His daughter Lucy, third in descent from Mr. Latane, married Mr. Payne Waring, of Essex, so well known as the zealous and liberal friend of the Church in that county and in the diocese, and father of the present Mrs. Richard Baylor. His son Henry, now seventy-three years of age, has several children who are members of the Church, one of whom is preparing for the ministry.

His daughter Mary married Mr. John Temple, one of whose sons is the minister of Old South Farnham parish at this time, and one of whom died at the University in the year 1829, a model of piety and all excellence. A brief tribute is due to his memory. In the year 1829, a most pestilential and fatal disease broke out in the village of Charlottesville and at the University. Nine of the students in the latter fell victims to it, and among them young Temple. Being invited by the authorities of the University to improve that most afflictive dispensation, I prepared and delivered a discourse, which was published. From it I extract the concluding sentences, which will show in what high esteem young Temple was held:--"

Charlotte LATANE
John LATANE Marriage 1 Mary ALLEN
William LATANE
Lucy LATANE Marriage 1 Payne WARING
Mary LATANE Marriage 1 John TEMPLE
