| Misc. Notes |
| Mary, his wife, took over management of the plantation at his death; however, she passed sometime between 8 Nov 1671, when she was recorded as administrator of her husband's estate, and 13 Mar 16712 when her eldest son, George, was ordered by the court of Lancaster County (p. 219) to pay to Mary Haile King her portion of her parents' estates. 72 |

| Misc. Notes |
Colonial Court Records for Lancaster County, Virginia, series 2, vol. 2 pg 84, orders George Haile (Heale) to give to Mary Haile King one-third part of two-thirds parts of her father Nicholas Haile's estate and one-third part of her mother's estate.
From the above court order (on record at Lancaster County Court House) one can get sufficient proof that Nicholas Haile and his wife Mary had only three children, George, Mary and Nicholas. As Nicholas died intestate, he no doubt was a young man and his death unexpected. One can glean from the early records of Tidewater Virginia that he had worked hard and accomplished much, as did most of the early settlers.
Records show each child, George, Mary and Nicholas, received 1/3 of 2/3 of Nicholas Haile's estate and they each received 1/3 of Mary's estate. Mary, of course, having received the widow's right to one-third of her husband's estate.72
This note, from the Haile descendants page, implies only three children, yet the page goes on to name all the other children also named by the Travers page. ?? |
