Mary Randolph 
Mary was born on November 21st, 1727 in "Curles", Henrico Co., VA.1 Mary's father was Richard Randolph and her mother was Jane Bolling. Her paternal grandparents were William Randolph and Mary Royall Isham; her maternal grandparents were John Bolling and Mary Kennon. She had four brothers and two sisters, named Richard, Brett, John, Ryland, Jane Bolling and Elizabeth. She died at the age of 54 on November 25th, 1781 in VA, USA.1 General Notes
Although I am not a descendant of William Randolph, some of his descendants married into my family. Consequently, I have devoted Allied Family Topic RA to his family.
William Randolph, in his own words
If he could speak to us today, William Randolph might describe his life as follows.
Since I was baptized in the parish of Moreton-Morrell in Warwickshire, England, 7 November 1650, I correctly testified 2 December 1678 that I was 28 years old and again on 1 August 1689 that I was 38. I was married to Mary Isham by 13 November 1678 when her brother Henry Isham made his will mentioning sister Mary Randolph. It is said she could play a guitar-like instrument called a cittern.
Henrico County, which I represented in the House of Burgesses (1684-1711) where I was clerk (1699-1702), charged me for five tithables, essentially a head tax, in 1679, and I paid property taxes on 1,655 acres in Surry County and 19,465 acres in Henrico County in 1704.
In 1706 I gave 167 acres on Turkey Island Creek to son William and plantation “Curles” to son Henry.
My 1711-will divided large tracts of land among our seven sons and left a ring each to our two married daughters.
