    An Ancestral Abstract of John Haynie, The Immigrant and His Descendants A Continuation Gen. 10 Richard Haynie

    Richard Haynie was the eldest son of John and Jane (Morris) Haynie. He was probably their third child and was born in Northumberland County. He must have been born about 1658, as he was named in his Grandfather Morris' will (1660) and listed as a tithable in Northumberland County in 1679. While Richard grew up on the frontier, the Northern Neck was a kindly place to live, the Indians were friendly and he had the rivers and forests to roam. His father was an important member of the church and the court, and Richard
    was accustomed to the best that life had to offer.

    As an adult, Richard lived in St. Stephen's Parish in Northumberland County.He described his land as being on "the right hand side of the road as you go down from the courthouse", and the plantation on which he lived, "as far as the first branch of the Tar Trough". He owned additional land, but it is not known what his total land holdings were. The grave of his first wife is not far off the main street of Heathsville, today, so this must have been a part of Richard's land.

    Richard played an active part in the affairs of the colony as did his father. He was elected a burgess from Northumberland County to the Assembly, for the years 1695-1698, and again, from 1703 until 1705. 51 He served as the high sheriff of Northumberland County and his son Richard served, at the same time, as under-sheriff (1706). 52 Added to these more prestigous pursuits, Richard was made overseer of the highway for the years 1695 thru 1705.

    It was no less a difficult assignment in his time than it had been in his father's. Richard served in the Northumberland County militia and attained the rank of captain. He was always addressed by his title.

    Elizabeth Bridger and Richard Harris were married 10 Oct 1681 in Northumberland County. She was the daughter of Richard and Jane Bridger. There have been a number of lists of the children of Elizabeth and Richard Haynie, and of the children of his subsequent marriage to Elinor. Not all of them are accurate.

    The births of several of Richard's children were recorded in the church records entry in the Northumberland County court records. An inspection of the original indicates that they have been misread. Four children who have been attributed to Richard were actually children of John, his son. Since the gravestone inscription of Elizabeth states that she had eight children by Richard, this provides a starting point.

    Richard's second wife was Elinor, and they had children also. The children of Elinor can be identified by date and by circumstances. The children of Elinor would not have been those listed in the Virginia Vital Records, however.

    Richard and Elizabeth are believed to have been the parents of: John, Bridger, Richard I I, Maximillan and Elizabeth Haynie. They also had 3 other children, tow of whom may have been Catherine and another daughter, who married a Pickeron or Thorp. One evidently died as a young child, before the time of Richard's w ill. The other children, named in his will, were apparently those of Elinor, since she also named them in her will.
