Mother: Joyce |
Robert moved to Fairfax around 1740 and on 12 Aug 1743 executed
a bill of sale reciting that he was "Of the county of Fairfax
and Colony of Virginia" by which he transferred to William
Taylor, his step-father, all his rights as life tenant to the
lands in Northumberland which his preceding stepfather Thomas
Ashton had left to him by his will.
His father Opie Lindsay, Esq. died in 1727 (Son of Robert, the
immigrant) and his estate was administered in Northumberland
County by John Smith. (Inventory of the movable estate 20 Sep
1727) His widow Joyce Lindsay married Thomas Ashton
(1695-1734), son of Thomas Ashton who died about 1690 and was a
brother of Charles Ashton who had been involved in 1665 in a
court case with the Rev David Lindsay which was described as a
"very scandalous affair." By his will Ashton devised to his
"stepson, Robert Lindsay" a life estate in certain lands on
Cherry Point. Joyce Lindsay Ashton married 3rd William Taylor
who had been executor of her husband's will.
CONFLICT-ERROR: Most accounts state that Robert Lindsay who
built his home called the Mount in Fairfax, married his second
cousin Susanna Opie, dau of Captain John Opie.
Possibly OPIE is her last name. Some have said her last name is
Austin, but no proof of this is given. It may be true however,
that she was a dau of a Capt Opie as the Opie family was a
prominent one in Cornwall and a large one. Many of them were
engaged in the shipping business from Bristol to Virginia.
There were several Captain Opies.
Contemporary with the Lindsay family there lived, in
Northumberland, VA the family of Opies, who came from England.
Thomas Opie, the founder and first of the name in Virginia
married Helen, the dau of the Rev David Lindsay, and their son,
Capt Thomas Opie, Jr lies buried beneath the same tombstone as
the Rev David Lindsay. "here also lyeth the body of Captain
Thomas Opie Jr of Bristol, grandson of Mr. David Lindsay, who
departed this life 16 November 1702."
Lindsay Family Association Report for 1911, page 187, refers to
a bill of sale from Robert Lindsay in 1743 recorded in
Northumberland County stating that Susanna was the daughter of
"Captain Opie of Northumberland," there was such a bill of sale
dated 12 Aug 1743 referred to above but it contains no reference
to Susanna.
There is no dispute that Robert Lindsay's wife was named Susanna
(Susan), and they married prior to 1744 when she was witness to
a deed in Fairfax. She was still married to him when he died in
Fairfax in 1784, and she was still living at The Mount in 1791,
and several years thereafter. She could have been an Opie, but
not the daughter of Captain John Opie. This is a different
Susanna b 1719 d. 1749 who m. Col Rodham Kenner. and 2nd Travers
Colston.
p. 186-187-188.
Children of Robert Lindsay:
1. William m. Ann Calvert.
2. Opie m. 3 times.
3. Mary Ann m. Henry Boggess,
4.Thomas 1750-1830 m. Martha Scott-Fox b PA - issue 9 children.
m. and 2nd Susan Stubblefield.
"There are no source documents defining the exact lineage of the
Robert &
Susanna Lindsay that set up shop in Fairfax Co. VA c1742. There
are only
bits and pieces in Maggie Lindsay's 1889 book "Lindsays of
America", Jo
Lin White's 1976 book "The Gray Family and Allied Lines", the
Lindsay Family
Association of America's Annual Reports, and various stray
pieces in old
Virginia records."
