History


Colonial Virginia

Henry Randolph I (1623-1673), born in Little Houghton, Northamptonshire, England, immigrated to the colony of Virginia in 1642, protege of Sir William Berkeley. Randolph became clerk of the county court, and when Charles Norwood left the colony, Speaker Francis Moryson put forth Randoph's name for the position and the House of Burgesses selected him as its clerk. Randolph remained such longer than anyone else in the century. Randolph also acquired title to land on the north side of Swift Creek in Bermuda Hundred in 1655 and built Swift Creek Mill, considered one of the first

Plantations

The family's wealth was based on four large plantations on the James River, acquired by William Randolph: Turkey Island (which he began assembling after his arrival around 1668), Curles (purchased from the colonial government), Tuckahoe and Dungeness (the result of two large land grants around 1700). Turkey Island was given its name by the first explorers of the James River, who noted that it contained a large population of wild turkeys. The term can refer to the surrounding area as well as the island. William Randolph's residence overlooked Turkey Island, and he is buried near the site of the house.Sankey, Margaret D.

Plantation is west of Turkey Island. It was owned by Nathaniel Bacon, who rebelled against the governor in 1676. The property was forfeited to the colonial government and William Randolph purchased it. Tuckahoe is the American English name of an edible plant, borrowed from an Algonquian Native American language. It is also the name of several streams and places in eastern Virginia, including Tuckahoe Plantation, established by William Randolph's son, Thomas. " Tuckahoe" later became a pejorative nickname for eastern Virginians, used mainly by western Virginians. Dungeness is the headland of a shingle beach in Kent, England, which must be rounded to approach the Thames Estuary. The founder of Dungeness Plantation, Isham Randolph, spent several years of his adult life as a ship's captain, and therefore was familiar with the feature. Bremo was the name for a tract between Turkey Island and Curles plantations. The name comes from a Germanic word meaning "edge", in this case the edge of a river. The root also occurs in the English word "brim". The extant Bremo Plantation was established in the early 19th century in
