Joshua D. Pritchett, Jr. (1795 - 1847)

Joshua Pritchett was born 1795 Brunswick co., Virginia, son of Joshua Pritchett and Elizabeth Cousins; married 8 November 1817 Elizabeth M. Inge, Brunswick co., Virginia, daughter of John M. Inge and Frances Dance; removed to Pittsylvania co, after marriage 1817 and lived there until his death prior to 18 January 1847. Elizabeth "Eliza" lived in Pittsylvania co., until she sold her plantation 5 Sept. 1857, and moved to Grayson/Fannin counties Texas with 9 of her 14 children. There were 11-12 families on her wagon train. Two years later the Blair/Keen/Williams/Witcher families came to the same area in Texas arriving in a snow storm. They split into three groups and went to Eliza's home, Rev. Spotts home, and the Col. Bradford's home in Old Warren. The Pritchett wagon train consisted of Trotter, Payne, Inge, Fitzgerald, Spotts, Haley, and other families yet to be identified.

The sources of this information are numerous from deed, wills, gravestones, family bibles. If you want me to provide it I will do so. Rusty Williams has encouraged me to submit to you all the Pittsylvania information I can. I will gladly do so. Perhaps it will get some other Pritchett's involved and contact me. I will work on submitting more to you. The deeds & wills, etc. will provide the exact source. Thanks, Jan Pritchett-Litvin.

Robert H. Pritchett (son of Joshua and Eliza Inge Pritchett) married Martha
Thompson in 1853.  Her mother, Ann Thompson, was a widow ane had three other
children.  As was the custom of the time, a male figure in the family often
assumed the guardianship of children who were orphaned by their fathers (even
though the mother was still living).  Abiding by this custom, Robert H.
Pritchett assumed this duty by the following document:

bind ourselves and each of us our heirs, executors, and administrators jointly
and severally firmly by these presents. Sealed with our seals and dated this
date 7th of June 1855.  the condition of the above obligation is such that
whereas the above bond Robert H. Pritchett is appointed by the Circuit of
Pittsylvania county, guardian of Catharine S, Sarah F., and Rawley Thompson
orphans of Rawley Thompson deceased in the place of William Rison who hath
this day resigned his guardianship of said orphans, if therefore, the said
Robert H. Pritchett shall faithfully execute the duties of said office or
trust.
