Notes:
Mary Griffis was the step-daughter of Gilbert Hay. Her mother, Mary, was first married to Thomas Griffis and then married Gilbert Hay after becoming a widow. Researcher, Robert W. Baird states, "Thomas Griffis who died in Surry County in June 1726 leaving a widow Mary and minor children Edward, John, Travis, Jane, Mary, and Elizabeth. By the time the inventory was presented on 19 October 1726, Mary Griffis had become Mary Hay. As Mary Hay she bound out her son Edward Griffis in 1743.When Gilbert Hay sold land in Surry in 1750 his wife Mary released dower. Note that Gilbert Hay's will names five of his six stepchildren as legatees: Edward Griffis, John Griffis, Jane (Griffis) Jarret, Mary (Griffis) Weaver and Elizabeth (Griffis) Prince. There doesn't seem to be a deed to Gilbert Hay for land in Surry, and he may have lived on Thomas Griffis' land, 450 acres partly in Surry and partly in Prince George . . . Gilbert Hay's will leaves "to Thomas Griffis, Son of Edward Griffis, my Plantation in Sussec [sic] County by whereon Edward Griffis now lives with me . . .."
Edward's will is dated on June 8, 1776 from Albemarle Parish, Virginia. He names children John, William, Winnie, Henry, Travis, Elizabeth, Jean, Mary, Amy, Susanna, and Edward (desc). A granddaughter, Elizabeth Weaver, was also mentioned. It appears she was the daughter of Travis.
