Note on Husband: Humphrey TABB

Humphrey Tabb was a gentleman and was referred to as such in the records. He paid the passage from England to Virginia for a good many early settlers, later supplying them with land on which to live. He represented Elizabeth City County in the Virginia House of Burgesses in 1652 and was a Justice of Elizabeth City County. He pattented fifty acres on Harris' Creek, in Elizabeth City County, in 1637, 100 acres in 1638, and 900 acres in 1656. In 1651, he had a grant for 1,000 acres in Northumberland County, Virginia. After he died, a fragment of a record shows that Anne Tabb, Widow of Humphrey Tabb dec'd, executed a deed to "Richard Hull, guardian of Thomas Tabb, son

of Humphrey Tabb dec'd." In 1662, the grant of 900 acres to Humphrey Tabb was re-entered in the name of Thomas Tabb, "son and Heir of Humphrey Tabb dec'd."
