Notes - Some of the Belcher families living in Massachusetts moved into
Maryland, Connectcut and some moved on to Virginia during the early
1700's.
Many of the men patented land in the southwest end of Chesterfield
Co., VA, which was known as Henrico Co. until 1749. They settled in
the area known as Skinquarter and Genito. Some of the settlers were
John Belcher and his cousin, Richard Belcher, James Gates, John Goode,
John Skelton and James Bailey. The earliest known record of Richard
and John Belcher is in Henrico Co., VA in John Nash's Sheriff's Bond
along with James Bailey. James Bailey's son, Richard Bailey, married
Elizabeth Belcher. In 1759 James Bailey bought 77 acres of land on
the south side of Kinquarter. This land was originally part of a
patent of 375 granted to Richard Belcher in 1754 and was the first
owned by the Bailey family. The listing states "paid debt of son
1736, paid 75 lbsl of tobacco... "to Yr. order to pay Belchar".
