"Whereas John Tyler, Gentleman, died intestate, possessed of 500 acres in Prince William County, VA on Broad Run, with a number of slaves and stocks and furniture agreeable to an inventory. Charles, William and George as joint heirs with other children of John Tyler are to receive 1/6 of the estate after the death of Margaret Tyler (widow of John) with the remainder to be equally divided between Mary and Sarah Tyler, daughters of Margaret." 49
In 1832 a certificate was filed by the Prince William County Clerk which names all the living heirs of Nathaniel Tyler, son of John and Margaret. This certificate was requested by Sally Tyler Linton, John's daughter. Although obviously an incomplete listing of the family, as it includes no one not alive in 1832, never the less, it is a goldmine of genealogical information about the family. See Probate File under Nathaniel Tyler, son of John, for details. John's family is also listed as a footnote to an article on the Campbell family in Virginia Genealogies, pp 166.49 |
