The Henrico County Court Order Book for March 1712, page 225 had this :

Whereby a Judgement was this day granted to John Wortham gentleman for 425 pounds of pork in the case against William Tabor and Bartholomew Stovall who was returned his security therefore on motion of Bartholomew Stovall ordered that an attachment be issued said Tabor estate and will be of value sufficient to satisfy & Pay said pork in the cast returnable to the next court."

Sometime between March and November 1712, William Tabor died leaving a wife and two small sons. William's death did not stop the court action, but brought on an even greater flurry of it.

In the November Court of 1712, page 260 we find: "Upon the petition of Hagar  Tabor widow of William Tabor deceased and her making oath according to law for  obtaining letters of administration on the land and estate in due form is  granted to her, Richard Grille, John Blackmon, entering therefore security for  the same and ordered that she present to the next court an inventory of the  deceased estate that John Hodge, John Hopkins, Amos Locke and John Clarke or  any 3 of them being first sworn by M. Abraham Solle do appraise the estate of  William Tabor deceased and make return thereof to the next court.  The inventory was postponed until early spring: From the January Court of 1713  records, page 266 was the following: The action of debt brought by John Howard   against Hager Tabor on the estate of William Tabor deceased is deferred by the   consent of the plaintiff. From the February court 1713 records, page 269 was

"The action of debt brought by John Stewart against Hagar Tabor administrix of  the estate of William Tabor deceased default neither party appearing."

A copy of page 251, Henrico County March court 1713 reads. "In Obediance to an order of the court dated November 2nd 1712 to appraise the estate of William Tabor deceased we the subscribed met at the plantation of the said Tabor and have appraised the estate under written December 11th 1712.

At a court held for Henrico County the first day of March 1713 Hagar Tabor presented this Inventory upon Oath and the same was thereupon admitted to record Test William Randolph Cl Cur"

For April court 1713 on page 229 was found " The attachmt grantee Bartholomew Stovall at the last court against the estate of Wm Tabor dismissed he not appearing. Over a year later we found in the October court of 1714 on page 305, action between Richard Grille Plaintiff and Hagar Tabor defendant on the estate of Wm Tabor deceased the plaintiff not having filed their declaration in time on the defendants motion he is nonsuit and ordered to pay damages with costs according to law."

Bartholomew Stovall, in his will dated 14 January 1718 and probated 1 May \\ 1721 Gave to Hagar Tabor then to her two small sons some land in Henrico \\ County.

Note: Stovall as well as Tabor researchers believe Hagar was the daughter of Bartholomew by his first wife, but no proof of the first marriage or this birth can be found. Bartholomew Stovall, born 24 Aug 1665 in England, arrived indentured on 7 Jul 1684 on the "BOOTH "under Capt. Peter Pagan. Nothing is known of Bartholomew's actions between 1684 and his recorded marriage to Anne Burton on 8 Aug 1693 in Henrico County, Virginia.

From Henrico County Orphans Court dated 5 October 1725, came John Tabor son of Hagar Tabor deceased failing to appear and comply with order of September court relating to orphans it is ordered that he be summoned to appear at the next county court to comply with said order of Sept. court."

Note: From all the above records we can list the following facts about William Tabor...

William Tabor .....Born 1671 in Virginia..

Indentured servant 1 Jan 1703....31 Dec 1712, Peter Indian..

Died Apr.... Oct 1712 Henrico County, Virginia...

Wife Hagar (Stovall) Tabor.....Born 1690 Henrico Co, Va

Died Jan....Aug 1725 Henrico County, Virginia...

Children....two sons.

William Tabor .....Born 1700.

John Tabor .....Born 1702.

about 1705 when William was 34, he married Hagar Stovall, daughter of Bartholomew Stovall, in Henrico Co, Va. Born in 1690 in Henrico Co, Va. Hagar died in Henrico Co, Va on October 7, 1723, she was 33.

They had one child:

7 i. William Sr (1712-1754)

----------------------------------------

7. William Sr Tabor. Born in 1712 in Henrico Co, Va. William Sr died in Lunenburg Co, Va on August 7, 1754, he was 42.

William Tabor (776) had married Rachel Womack and started their family in the newly formed Goochland County, then by 1745 they had moved south to the greater Lunenburg County.

Records show William Tabor was deeded 200 acres on the Roanoke River by John Wilkins on the 1 Oct 1745. The 1750 tithe list taken by Willam Howard shows " William Tabor and John Taber" together when John Tabor sold 200 acres on the north side of the Roanoke River to Robert Wade on 3 Jul 1753, " Rachel Tabor relict of William Tabor deceased, released her dower right to this land. From then on , Rachel Tabor and her children are mentioned in tandem in the records.

It seems that the Tabors then embraced the Quaker form of life. On 7 Aug 1754 in Lunenburg County we found, Deed of gift of Rachel Tabor lists children as infants ( under age 21 ) From the Oct 1757 court of the newly created Mecklenburg County was recorded that Hezekiah Tabor a tiltable to be added to a list of tiltable for the year. ( See Elliott's "Early Settlers of Mecklenburg County Virginia, Volume (2). From a 31 Mar 1760 return (P. 509 " Cumberland " by Thomas Anderson, Richard Palmer and Thomas Carlton we found " Rachel Tabor " and William Taber orphans Listed between Bullock, Robert Easter, Thomas Hawkins orphans and Robert Munford near Butchers Creek. " Riah Taber was listed next to Volentine Mullins.\\\\

NOTES for William follow:

On 11 Mar 1779 William Taber and wife Elizabeth sold 119 acres on Wolf

Creek, branch of Roanoke River, Botetourt County, Va. (Joe note ; Ibelieve the river is right, but the county may be wrong , can't find anything in Botetourt county records of this transaction , and William's parents and siblings were settled along the Roanoke River , but in Lunenberg co. , not Botetourt ) After that William apparently moved to the western part of the state. William Taber had land office treasury warrents for 500 and 3,000 acres. He entered land in Montgomery Co., Va. 1783 and 1786. He transferred this land to John Winters 13 Sep 1790.

"I think [William Tabor] was dead by 1806. He didn't appear on Montgomery's personal tax list that year, but his sons John & James did. They also appear in the 1810 census there. Wm. did not but 'Nelley Taybur' did, with 8 children, ranging in age from 0-21. She must have been Wm.'s widow and his

second wife." [Yvonne V. Linehan, Royal Oak, MI; letter 26 Mar 1990].
