GREAT-GRANDPARENTS OF PASSINS ALVIS THOMASSON
GEORGE THOMASSON, born 10 Nov 1703 in King William Co VA; died 22 Aug 1783 in Louisa Co VA. He was the son of Thomas Thomasson and unknown wife.George Thomasson married MARY POLLARD Abt 1733 in Hanover Co VA who was born 6 Nov 1706 in Hanover Co VA; died Aft. 1783 in Louisa Co VA. She was the daughter of Richard & Martha (Fleming) Pollard.
Notes for George Thomasson:(The following biographical account is from "Thomasson Traces, Narrative of the Thomasson Family 1677 - 1995" Volume II, by Curtis H. Thomasson & Marjorie B. Malloy) George Thomasson was born November 10, 1703 in St John's Parish, King William County, Virginia, the son of Thomas Thomasson, who was originally from England. His birthplace is documented by the fact that his father was a resident of King William County prior to 1703. - - - George Thomasson married Mary Pollard ca 1733, probably in Hanover County. She was the daughter of Richard Pollard and his wife Martha Fleming. His wife's maternal grandfather was William Fleming, who was sheriff of Hanover County in 1727. The Fleming property adjoined that of Thomas Thomasson according to the Virginia Land Patents. In the early Virginia records, George Thomasson is frequently referred to as "George Thomason, Planter." The title of planter was given to early land owners who owned in excess of 1,000 acres. On June 5, 1736, George Thomasson patented 1600 acres of land on both sides of Christopher's Run in what was originally Hanover County, but later became Louisa in 1742. Initially this property was within the boundaries of Fredericksville Parish, but became Trinity Parish when Fredericksville was divided in 1762. (Today would be located on Route 613) The Louisa County Deed Books have numerous references to land transactions during the lifetime of George Thomasson. He gave each son 200 acres of land upon their marriage and legally recorded the deeds on May 10, 1763. There is no record of any property given to any of the daughters when they married, probably because their husband were already well established. Most of the children stayed in Louisa and surrounding counties and became prominent in the history of early Virginia. George Thomasson was too old to serve in the Continental Army during the War of Independence, but he furnished supplies on several occasions as evidenced by the public service claims in Louisa County. On June 13, 1781, he was allowed 3 pence per pound for 850 lbs of beef delivered to John Jouett. Then again on November 1, 1781, George Thomason was allowed 3 pence per pound for 275 lbs of beef received by William Anderson. Any Thomasson decendant of George and Mary (Pollard) Thomasson would be eligible for DAR membership on his contribution of supplies to the American army. The Thomasson plantation in Louisa was a self-contained, working plantation. At the time of his death George Thomasson had twenty slaves, and everything the family needed was produced on the plantation. Crops included wheat, cotton, corn, rye, oats, tobacco, flax and garden vegetables. He had three yokes of oxen which was probably used to do the heavy hauling and plowing around the homeplace. In the fields he kept nineteen cattle, sixty-six hogs, four horses, nineteen sheep and thirteen geese. There were two milk cows and one bull. Brandy, whiskey, cider and vinegar were made on the place and large quantities were stored in hogsheads and casks. He kept as much as a pound of pepper at one time and quantities of bacon, honey, bees wax, butter and salt. All kinds of farming tools were used on the plantation. There were spoon moulds, shot moulds, candle moulds, shoe lasts and cooper's tools (used to repair the barrels and casks need to store liquids.) quantities of lead, nails, iron, steel, files, hinges, raw leather, planks, sisal (fiber used in making ropes,) spun wool, cotton and flax were kept in constant supply for the use of the large family and slave population. When an inventory of the estate was made at the time of his death in 1783, the appraisers listed six beds and furniture which indicate the large size of the Thomasson home. Also listed in the inventory were three guns and a bugle horn. On a branch of Christopher's Run, George Thomasson built a mill, and the parish opened up a road to this mill which became known as Thomasson's Mill Road. There was also a road leading from the Thomasson plantation to the Louisa Court House that was known as Thomasson's Court house Road. Life for the Thomassons in early Virginia had to be busy to clear, plant, and cultivate a plantation the size of George Thomasson's. He and Mary raised a large family of six sons and four daughters; all of whom married into prominent Virginia families. At the time of their marriage, it appears that George Thomasson gave each child a negro slave who was formally deeded to them in his last will and testament. These slaves did not show up in the inventory of his estate, probably because they were not on his property at the time of his death. George Thomasson signed his will on August 19, 1783, and died three days later on August 22nd. He was eighty years old. ------------------------------------------------10 May 1763 - Louisa Co VA (Deed Book C) I, George Thomasson of Louisa co, Trinity Parish, for love, good will and affection towards my loving son William Thomasson of the same Parish and County; 200 acres with plantation where said William Thomasson now lives; unto my loving son Thomas Thomasson, 210 acres, with the plantation where said Thomas now lives; to my loving son Richard Thomasson 200 acres of land and the plantation that is now called the New Design, also I give to my loving son John Thomasson 200 acres of which these presents have delivered them.
