Robert Booth was clerk of York court as early as 1645. He married Frances _____, and had Elizabeth, who married Dr. Patrick Napier. Robert and William Booth succeed him in the York records, and were probably his sons. William left a will, which shows that he (William) had no sons. Robert married Anne, daughter of James Bray, Esq., and Angelica, his wife, but as he left no will, it cannot be said positively that Thomas Booth was his son. Capt. Robert Armistead (Anthony, William) had two sons by a first wife, Booth (died in 1727) and Ellyson; and he then married, secondly, Katharine Nutting, widow of Capt. William Sheldon, and had Robert, Booth, and Angelica. It looks as if Armistead's first wife was Miss Booth, either a daughter of grand-daughter of Robert Booth, the younger. (See Keith's Ancestry of Benjamin Harrison, p. 21; Quarterly, Vol. II, p. 234) Graves Pack married, secondly, Sarah _____. He was justice of the peace of York county, and under date Feb 16, 1740, is the following: "Edward Randolph of Loudoun, mercht, now residing in Virginia, devisee under the will of Graves Pack, late of London, mariner, dated 16 Dec 1728, for 25L current money of Va.," sells to John Kaidyee 4 lots in Queen Mary's Port, near the capital of Williamsburg. Witness, J. Palmer, Bedford Davenport, John Parker.--Editor"

prsent for Middle Plantation parish, after a very long consultation had and a serious con-
sideration thereof, This Cort doth finde by the oath of Mr. Robert Bouth, a Burgess of that
assembly, that the bounds of Marston Parish granted in 1654 were thus: From the river up
the North syde of Queene's Creek to the head thereof including the Clay Banck to Jamestowne

And also founde from a certificate from Major Charles Harwood, Clarke of the Assembly, that

there was some omission (through many businesse) of some part of the said Parish bounds in
the order entered therein. Therefore have ordered that the bounds of Marston parish be as
above expressed, and that Mr. John Page for Middle Plantation Parish pay all Costs of Suite
