    • PLEASE READ BEFORE MAKING CHANGES! The maiden name of Mary, the wife of William Nodding, is unknown. She was NOT the Mary who was the daughter of Thomas Brewster. Although the surname of Thomas Brewster's daughter Mary is missing from the will of Thomas Brewster, from the deed abstract below, we know that that Mary married Thomas Finch and not William Nodding. Deed Abstracts of Loudoun Co., Virginia, 1795-1796, Ruth & Sam Sparacio, eds., The Antient Press, 1993, p. 110: pp. 351-352 [in original deed book] Agreement of heirs of Thomas Bruister. (On margin: LEWIS et Ux. to FINCH &c. Assignment) AN AGREEMENT entered into & concluded on Between DANIEL LEWIS & ANN LEWIS, THOMAS FINCH & FRANKLIN PERRY. This Agreement Witnesseth that Whereas Thos. Bruister, deceased, did give by his Last Will to his three Daughters a tract of land to be equally divided between them, vizt. MARY BRUISTER who after intermarried to THOMAS FINCH, ANNEY BRUISTER who after intermarried to DANIEL LEWIS & PRISCILLA BRUISTER, who after intermarried to JOHN NODDING & the said PRISCILLA & JOHN NODDING conveyed their part to FRANKLIN PERRY and as no Division hath yet been recorded and each party is desirous to have the land divided and bounds fixed that each may hereafter know their bounds, mutually agree that IGNATIOUS WHEELER, WM. STANHOPE & WILLIAM GUNNELL JUNR., do make an equal division of the land according to Qunatity & Quality to which we said DANIEL LEWIS, and ANN LEWIS, THOS. FINCH & FRANKLIN PERRY do bind ourselves & each of our heirs to each other in the penalty of Two thousand pounds each, provided we do not abide by and stand to the Division of the aforesaid IGNATIOUS WHEELER, WILLIAM STANHOPE & WILLIAM GUNNELL JUNR. In Witness whereof we have hereunto set our hands & seals this fifth day February 1796. Sealed & Acknowledged in the presence of IGNATIOUS WHEELER, WM. STANHOPE, JOHN L. PERRY, PEGGY PERRY, JOHN OWENS, JS. HOUGH. DANL. LEWIS, ANN LEWIS, THOMAS FINCH, FRANKLIN PERRY. Robert Fillerup, December 2017. For a time, Daniel Brewster and wife Mary were shown as the parents of Mary, the wife of William Nodding. However, in messages with the person who made the connection, it was discovered that a "merge" was incorrect, and that there is no known connection to Daniel Brewster and wife Mary, at least at the present time. Robert Fillerup, February 2020.
