Richard Milton came to Virginia in 1620 on the ship "Supply". The
Supply was the companion ship to the Mayflower. It left England three
weeks later than the Mayflower and unlike the Mayflower, the Supply
found it's way to Virginia. Richard must have been considered a
responsible man because he was put in charge of Councillor Prontus'
cattle while in shipment on the Supply.
Richard Milton purchased 75 acres of land from Thomas Staff on 29 Nov
1635. He purchased 75 acres from Thomas Staff on 26 May 1637. 3 Oct
1638 he received 400 acres from transfer by eight others. 23 Aug 1643
Thomas Wheeler received by assignment from Richard Milton and Robert
Tisdale 900 acres of land.
