!DEATH DATE/PLACE: Albemarle County, Virginia; Personal Property
Tax Lists. The evidence from the tax lists is as follows (the number
of white tithables in the household follows the name):
1800
Richard Dollins Senr. 1
Rchd. Dollins Elizabeth's son 1
Since my Richard was living in Albemarle County at this time (see below)
and was old enough to have a child who was married in 1811 (see note
under Sarah Dollins), whereas the "son of Elizabeth" was probably under
21 years of age in order to be so designated, the "Richard Dollins Senr."
in these tax years is probably mine.
1801
Richard Dollins Senr 1
Richard Dollins Son of Elizabeth 1
1802
Richard Dollins Senr 1
Richard Dollins Elizt Son 1
1803
Richard Dollins Sr. 1
Richard Dollins Elizabeth's son 1
1804
Richard Senr. 1
1805
Richard Dollins Junr. 1
Richard Dollins Sr 1
Richard Dollins Junr. first appears in 1805, the same year in which
Richard the son of Elizabeth no longer appears. This further confirms
that Richard Senr. is my Richard Dollins.
1806
Richard Dollins Sr 1
Richard Dollins Jnr 1
1807
Richard Dollins & Son 2
Richard Dollins Junr 1
1809
Richard Dollins & son 2
Richard Dollins Junr. 1
1810
Richard Dollins 1
Richard Dollins & son John 2
Since other evidence proves that my Richard Dollins had a son
John (see note under John Dollins), the 1810 and 1812 tax lists
are further evidence that the Richard Dollins Sr in these tax lists
is my Richard Dollins.
1811
Richard Dollins & son 2
Richard Dollins Junr 1
1812
Richard Dollins Junr 1
Richard Dollins & Son John 2
1813
Richard Dollins Senr 1
Richard Dollins 1
John Dollins 1
1814
Richard Dollins & son 2
Richard Dollins Junr 1
1815
Richard Dollins 1
(next line) John Dollins 1
(several lines later) Richard Dollins Junr 1
Jeremiah Dollins 1
1816
John Dollins 1
(next line) Richard Dollins 1
(several lines later) Jeremiah Dollins 1
Richard Dollins Junr. 1
The lists for 1815 and 1816 establish that Jeremiah Dollins, who
first appears in 1815, is associated with Richard Dollins Junr. and
not with my Richard Dollins.
1817
Richard Dollins 1
Jeremiah Dollins 1
1818
Richard Dollins 1
John Dollins 1
Jeremiah Dollins & mo [?] 1
1819
Jeremiah Dollins 1
(next line) Richard Dollins 1
(several lines later) John Dollins 1
1820
Jeremiah Dollins 1
(next line) Richard Dollins 1
(several lines later) John Dollins 1
The lists for 1819 and 1820 indicate that the Richard Dollins who
disappeared after 1816 is my Richard Dollins -- the one who had a
son John and who was formerly designated as John Dollins Sr.
Thus, my Richard Dollins apparently died about 1816.
1821 (numbers of white tithables not given in 1821 and 1822)
Jeremiah Dollins
(next line) Richard Dollins
1822
Jeremiah Dollins
(next line) Richard Dollins
The lists for 1820 and 1821 further confirm that the Richard Dollins
associated with Jeremiah is the one who remained.
!Other evidence indicates that my Richard Dollins died between 1804
and 1824, and that he apparently died in Albemarle County rather than
emigrating:
(1) On March 5, 1804, Richard Dollins and Anne his wife of Albemarle
County conveyed to Francis Montgomery, for ten pounds, a tract of
ten acres in Albemarle County on "the head Branches of Mechams River."
(Albemarle Deed Book 14, page 446). The deed appears to be signed
with a mark R.
(2) Oct. 18, 1824, William H. MARTIN and Sally his wife conveyed to
John DOLLINS "land which was owned and inherited by Richard
Dollins Decd., and of which said Richard Dollens died possessed, and
which said undivided interest has descended to the said William & Sally
his wife as heirs and distributees of the estate of said Richard Dollens
Decd. and which said interest is one third part, of the whole tract"
(Albemarle County, Virginia; Deed Book 24; page 432).
!SPOUSE: Bill of Complaint; Nicholas Burgher etc. versus Joseph
Burgher etc.; Albemarle County Chancery Cases; Library of Virginia
Index number 1826-012 (stating that Anna BURGHER DOLLINS was
the mother of Sarah Dollins who married William H. Martin). Marriage
date is based entirely on the assumption that they were married about
one year before the birth of their oldest child.
!On November 6, 1795, William Hays and Charity his wife of Albemarle
County conveyed to Richard Dollins of Albemarle County, for thirty pounds,
a tract of 60 acres in Albemarled County, "bounded on Francis Montgomery
and Richard Richardson." (Albemarle Deed Book 11, page 496). Charity
Hays was the sister of Richard Dollins's wife, Anna Burgher.
!The following entries appear in Albemarle County Road Orders 1783-
1816; by Nathaniel Mason Pawlett (Dec. 1975, revised Apr. 2004); pages
52, 78-79; published by the Virginia Transportation Research Council;
available on-line at
http://www.virginiadot.org/vtrc/main/index_main.htm):
"7 December 1795 N.S., Ord. Bk. 1795-98, p. 5
"James Durrett is appointed surveyor of the road from the County line
to the fork below Daniel Whites in the room of John Burger with the
following male tytheables to keep the same in repair to wit Charles
Patricks, John Pipers Richard Richardsons, Francis Montgomerys William
Ennis & Richard Dollins"
"3 October 1798 N.S., Ord. Bk. 1798-1800, p. 129
"John Burger, Joel Smith and John Patrick three of the persons appointed
by a former order of this Court to view the Road Petitioned for by Jacob
Good made a report in these words (to wit) "Gentlemen of the Court
Agreeable to Order have viewed the way, and is as follows (Viz) begining
on the line between Joel Smiths & John Pipers Keeping said Line from
thence runing through part of Richard Dollins & Francis Montgomerys Land
and entering the line between Thomas Smiths, Major and Peter Fosters
and Keeping nearly said line until it enters into the road leading by Goods
Mill, which we perceive may be a very convenient Road for the
neighbourhood and others and no interruption. Given from under our
hands this 4th. day of August 1797. John Burger, Joel Smith, John Patrick.
And on the motion of the said Goode the said Road is established agreeable
to the report aforesaid and the hands employed under James Durret and
Joel Smith are assigned to John Piper who is appointed to superintend the
opening of the same."
!One Richard Dollins signed an "Early Virginia Religious Petition" of
certain residents of Albemarle County, dated October 30, 1790. These
petitions are on the Library of Congress's "American Memory" site,
at http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/repehtml/repehome.html. A copy
of that signature, from page 5 of the petition of this date, is on my Web
site, at
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~vagenealogy/images/rdollins.jpg.
However, the Richard Dollins who consented to the marriage of his daughter
Sarah to William Henderson in 1811 (see note under William H. Martin) signed
the consent with an X mark.
