The 15 volumes reproduced on this data set were originally published by the Genealogical Publishing Company and contain land record abstracts, census records, militia lists, immigration records, and general information about early Virginia settlers. This data set lists more than 200,000 individuals.
Thousands of Virginia's early settlers arrived in the colony as a result of the headright system. Under this system, anyone who paid his way (or someone else's way) to Virginia received fifty acres of land.
In order to receive a land patent under the headright system, an individual would petition the county court for a "certificate of importation." The certificates were then recorded in the county court minute books. For genealogical purposes, these records can help establish relationships and approximate arrival times in the colony. This data set presents much such valuable information, along with
other records of land acquisition. In addition to land record abstracts, you will also find lists of colonial Virginia inhabitants (including the first census list, compiled in 1623-1624). These records are important because few reliable lists of colonial Virginia inhabitants exist.

This information taken from the Dale Family Ancestry Sullivan Co., Maryland, Descendants of Dale, Microfilm No. 1320946. This Thomas Dale first appears in 1653 as an immigrant to Warrick, Co., Virginia. There is also another, unrelated Thomas Dale, who is the son of Nicholas Dale. Nicholas came over in 1638. Many land grants ascribed to the 1653 immigrant Dale acutally belong to Nicholas's son.

In all likelyhood Thomas Dale whose name appears in the land grants of Jan. 4 1653 where he was patented 900 acres in New Kent Co., Va, and 350 acres in Glouchester Co. on the north side of the Mattaponi River. Because of the changes in the county boundaries, this smaller grant was in New Kent Co., in 1654 and in King and Queen Co. in 1891. The smaller grant was renewed on May 24, 1664. Reuben Dale appears in the records of Old Rapahannock Co. in 1685 and 1689. This Reuben Dale was dead by 1692 and his wife Elizabeth was his executrix. Richmond and Essex Counties were formed from Old Rappahannock Co. in 1692. Abraham, Thomas and a younger Elizabeth Dale lived in Richmond Co. in the Northern Neck of Virginia. They must have been the heirs of this Reuben Dale, but the proof is yet to be found. {April 4, 1960}. The daughter of and William Rogers. This William Rogers was a son of William Rogers and Elizabeth Dale, and a grandson of Maj. Edward Dale. Elizabeth Dale Rogers died in 1728 in Lancaster Co., Va, leaving six children: Thomas Young, Robert Young, Reuben Young, William Dodson, Charles Dodson, and Ann Rogers. Much of this information came from F. Hiner Dale, former District Judge from Guyman, Okalhoma in 1960. The question is who was the Elizabeth Dale Rogers who died in 1728 leaving so many children? From all indication Reuben's daughter Elizabeth was born 1692/93 and was much too young to have so many children. It would also seem that
it wasn't Elizabeth Dale Rogers, who was the daughter of Maj. Edward Dale, married William Rogers.
"This Reuben Dale was dead by 1692 and his wife Elizabeth was his executrix. Richmond and Essex Counties were formed from Old Rappahannock Co. in 1692. Abraham, Thomas, and a younger Elizabeth Dale lived in Richmond Co. in the Northern Neck of Virginia. They must have been the heirs of this Reuben Dale, but the proof is yet to be found. {April 4, 1960}. The daughter of and William Rogers.
This William Rogers was a grandson of Edward Dale. Elizabeth Dale Rogers died in 1728 in Lancaster Co., Va, leaving six children: Thomas Young, Robert Young, Reuben Young, William Dodson, Charles Dodson, and Ann Rogers." It also mentions that Reuben Dale's daughter, Elizabeth Dale married Thomas Young, William Dodson, and continues with: "She also married William ROGERS, son of John ROGERS, Capt. and Ellen, who was born about 1655 in Old Rappahannock, Va, England. William died
in 1714 in Lancaster Co., Va. William was married to Elizabeth DALE.
