Notes:

Property: April 26, 1656, James City, Va 1190 Acres (Kittawon Plantation) of land for Importa'con of persons. Later transcribed into Charles City, Va.  House is in National Register of Historic Homes.

Kittiewan 12104 Weyanoke Road

The original property where Kittiewan is sited was given by Chief Opechancanough, half-brother and successor of Chief Powhatan, to Virginia Governor George Yeardley in 1617. At that time, the plantation consisted of over 1,000 acres and was known to native Americans as Kenwan. It now encompasses 700 acres.

The core of the 1 1/2 story colonial plantation house of heart pine was built before 1728. The extraordinary paneling in the main drawing room is considered to be comparable to any of the best in the country.

Several families have occupied Kittiewan. About 1640, William Justice, an active member of the House of Burgesses at Jamestown, acquired Kittiewan and it remained in the Justice family until 1768 when Dr. William Rickman bought the plantation. Dr. Rickman was elected Director and Chief Physician of the hospitals in Virginia by the Contintental Congress in 1776, a position he held until 1780. Most recently, Kittiewan was the home of Wilma and Bill Cropper, both of whom are now deceased.  The property is now held by the Archaeological Society of Virginia.

William Justice 1625
William JUSTICE
Born: 1625 He was NOT born in South Hampton, London, England as there is no such place. There is a Southampton in England, or a London, England. However, I have not as of yet seen a real source for his birth.
Died: February 03, 1663/64 in Weyanoke Parish, Charles City Co, Virginia
William married
Mary FRAME 1646, Weyanoke Parish, Charles City Co, Virginia
Born: 1635 in Weyanoke Parish, Charles City Co, Virginia
Died: June 03, 1673 in Weyanoke Parish, Charles City Co, Virginia
Father: Capt. Frame
Mother: Ann Frame
William and Mary had the following children: (Their birthdates are unknown and according to researcher O. Neil Justice, John's and Justinian's are just a guess.)
RALPH JUSTICE, b. 1653, Weyanoke Parish, Charles City County, Virginia; d. 1729.
JOHN JUSTICE, b. 1660, Westover Parish, Charles City Co, Virginia; d. 1715, Charles City Co, Virginia.
JUSTINIAN JUSTICE, b. 1660, Weyanoke Parish, Charles City Co, Virginia; d. 1720.
Notes:
Occupation: William was NOT a Burgess, however, his great grandson Ralph became one. He also did NOT own the ship "EDWARD" It is a mix up with another William Justice. William Justice of Charles City County was dead by that time.
Property: April 26, 1656, William was granted his land for the importation of 24 persons. It was 1198 Acres. His land was south of the Weyanoke penisula, on the south side of the James River, by Flowerdew Hundred Creek, in what was Charles City County, Virginia.
According to the Historian of Kittiewan, Patrick O'Neill, William did NOT own Kittiewan Plantation, the land it was on or build the Kittiewan Manor! He did sell his land south of the James River and buy 3 plots of land on the Weyanoke peninsula. It was next to what would later become Kittiewan.
Kittiewan Plantation is now owned by the Archaeological Society of Virginia.

If you would like proof of my claims please go to Family Search and look up William Justice 1625-1664 I have the original PDF by Patrick O'Neill and many other proofs. Look for my user name "becorcari".
