Shirley Hundred Plantation Collection - James Llewellin

The Shirley Hundred Plantation Collection Guide shows the following:

Sept. 20, 1650.   Survey of the "Rich Level" portion of Shirley Hundred for JAMES LLEWELLIN

(This was apparently the land of Daniel Llewellin because ...see next)

Jan. 1710.   Extract from Daniel Llewellin's Will bequeathing "Rich Level" plantation to his grandson Llewellin Epses.   Extract sent to Charles Clark.


The guide also has one other entry for Daniel:

Aug. 26, 1656.   Deed of sale of 60 acres.   Daniel Llewellin to Col. Edward Hill.



Then on another site on the internet, I found this for 1655-8 and, unfortunately, I didn't copy the web site but it should be easy to locate:

1655-8 - Ordered that the court make good the debt and damage against Capt.
Daniell Lewellin for the escape of Elias Webb for want of a prison according to act. Page
