Notes |
- By David Moncol:
Evan Ragland, Jr., of St Peter's parish, New Kent County, Virginia, was born in New Kent County in 1683 and was probably the eldest son of Evan Ragland, Sr. and Susanna Pettus. Very few details of his life surviveed; however, from available records a somewhat general reconstruction of his life is posssible. Evan appears to have spent his entire life in New Kent County and to have owned several hundred acres along the northren side of the Chickahominy River. His land, which was adjacent to the plantation of his brother, Thomas, was undoubtedly the same land which he inherited from his father. The vestry minutes reveal that in 1723 he was appointed the road gang superintendent for the southwestern part of New Kent County, a minor, but responsible position which required him to oversee the maintenance of roads in that part of the county. None of the records revel the name of Evan's wife or the date of their marriage. Howveer, he is known to have been single in 1705 but married by 1709. Evan is mentioned for the last time in 1739 when he appears on a list of planters and freeholders of St. Peter's parish. The list the following year omits his name, but includes the names of two of his sons which can only mean that he died in 1739/40. He left four children.
