Hannah Conolly1

Relationship Note*Hannah Conolly and Winifred Conolly were sisters who married brothers, John Britt and William Britt Sr.3 
Marriage*before 16 June 1752She married, as his second wife, William Britt Sr., son of ______ Britt, before 16 June 1752 in Goochland County, Virginia. We feel confident they married before that date because, on that date, Hannah's father, Bryant Conolly, deeded a plantation and ninety-nine acres of land in Goochland County to his loving son-in-law, William Britt Sr., and Hannah Conolly, his wife. Unfortunately, the marriage date reported for them in The Douglas Register is incorrect, and is actually the date of birth of the oldest of their children found in the birth and baptism section of the Register starting on page 150.2,1 
(Daughter) Land Records16 June 1752In a deed dated 16 June 1752, Hannah's father, Bryant Conolly of Goochland County, Virginia, "for diverse good causes, but more especially for the love, good will, favour and affection which Briant Conoly of the county of Goochland have and do bear towards my loving son-in-law, William Britt Sr., and Hannah Britt, his wife, have given, granted, made over and confirmed, and by these presents do give, grant, entrust and confirm unto the aforesaid William Britt and Hannah Britt, his wife, of the aforesaid county of Goochland, the plantation whereon he formally lived and ninety-nine acres of land lying convenient thereto, to them, their heirs and assigns, forever"......2

Of the land distributed by his will, his wife, Hannah Britt, was bequeathed, during her life or widowhood, 100 acres of land being part of the tract he had purchased from John Page, Sr., which was described as lying on the west side of the Creek, including the dwelling and office houses. And, in the event of her death or marriage, the said land was to fall to his youngest son, William Britt.

To his son, John Britt, he bequeathed 125 acres of land, part of the tract of land purchased from Neil Campbell, an agent representing Glasgow merchants, the land described as lying in Rock Castle Neck and bounded by the lines of Thomas Bolling and Thomas Randolph, Esq., Benjamin Clapton, Meshack Hicks and John Philpot, the part here meant being that corner lying between the lines of Thomas Bolling and Meshack Hicks.

He bequeathed to his son, Obed Britt, the remainder part of the aforesaid tract of land in Rock Castle Neck, supposed to consist of 400 acres.

To his son, William Britt, he bequeathed the tract of land whereon he was then living, being the tract of land he had purchased from John Page, Sr., and described as lying on one of the branches of Licking Hole Creek and consisting of 250 acres, more or less, but with this reserve: his wife, Hannah Britt, was to possess and enjoy 100 acres thereof as aforesaid during her natural life or widowhood. He also bequeathed to his son, William Britt, one other tract of land containing 100 acres, more or less, and described as lying in the fork of Byrd Creek and bounded by the lands of Colonel Robert Lewis, Colonel John Hopkins, and Bryant Conolly.

He bequeathed gifts to his daughters, Jenny Mitchell and Elizabeth Christian and also ratified and confirmed former gifts he had made to his daughters, Mary Wilkerson and Hannah Longmire.

Name-SpellingsIn most of his records found in our research, his given name was spelled Chrisman. Once we found it as Crisman and once as Christopher, and also once as "Chrismond."

Two of Elizabeth's brothers, David Smith Wine and John P. Wine, were also enumerated in the Conrad household in 1850. John was 22 years of age and David, who was recorded as Smith, was age 20.

Research Notes*His first four children, Sarah Jane Conrad, Marcellus Conrad, Margaret Ann Conrad and Phebe Conrad, were born before his marriage to Engra Agnes Shields, so it is very likely he had a first wife we have not yet identified.6

Lemuel was 30 years of age and a farmer, and Engra was age 29. Neither was able to read or write. Seven children were enumerated with them in 1850. Sarah Jane, Marcellus, and Margaret Ann, believed to have been the children of Lemuel and his first wife, were ages 12, 10, and 8 years, respectively, and had all attended school within the census year; Phebe, also believed to have been the daughter of Lemuel and his first wife, was 7 years old. The three youngest, Amanda, Daniel and Eda, are believed to have been the couple's children. Amanda and Daniel were ages 6 and 2 years, respectively, and baby Eda was 5 months old.
