William was the family's founder in America, settling in VA. In January 1717 William built a house & wharf at Hampton. On 19 July 1717, William & Gov. Alexander Spotswood, signed a charter-party for a vessel belonging to William, who agreed to transport 20 men to SC. In another deed of 1719, he is described as "late of Hampton, now of King William County". Wilson Miles Cary wrote for the William & Mary College Quarterly (Vol V) "His removal to that county was doubtless occasioned by a settlement of 1247 acres in the parish of St. Johns made March 1719, on his marriage with Unity, only child of Col. Nathaniel West. In 1727 he became a member of the Colonial Council, and on Dec. 14th of that year he is appointed with Col. Byrd one of the (3) commissioners to settle the dividing line between Virginia and NC. In 1728 he has a grant of 496 acres of Allen's Creek, in Hanover, adjoining his King William lands...In 1737 it is stated in the Virginia Gazette that Wm. would soon be given the command of one of his Majesty's ships, and later on there occurs mention of the presentation to him of a sword by the Duke of Montagu. In Feb. 1741, Capt. Wm D. commanded the Wold and in Nov. he was transferred to the South Sea...He subsequently commanded the man-of-war Ludlow Castle.
In 1743 the 'colonel-captain' died, while on a visit to his Hanover estates. His will is dated 25 Aug 1743." Elsing Green was the name of his King William Co., VA estate. He also served as a burgess. His brother, John, was the father of Martha, who married President George Washington.
William married Unity West on 17 Mar 1718/19 in King William County, Virginia, USA. Unity (daughter of Nathanial West and Martha Woodward) was born in 1696 in West Point, King William County, VA; died after Jul 1753 in Elsing Green, King William County, VA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
