Jamestown was founded on May 14, 1607 and served as the colonial capital of Virginia until 1699. It has a singular place among our American origins for what our ancestors did – as America’s first pioneers – to lay the foundation of our nation’s political and economic development.

Reverend Robert Braswell (1611-1667)
Anglican
Robert Braswell entered Oxford in 1628 at the age of 17. 3 Nov 1631 he received his B.A. Degree in Theology at Hart Hall, Oxford University, England. Robert was an Anglican minister. Robert was the son of Richard Bracewell, Gentleman (meaning he was of an armorial family) of London and Lettice Hartley.
It was common practice in England during that period for the second son to attend college and enter the ministry. England in the 1600's was a dangerous place for a person in the ministry in England, as with each newly crowned authority in England the tide would turn from Catholic to Protestant and back again all ending with religious persecution in relation to the current monarch's religious preferences. Many in the ministry at this time chose to go to Virginia rather than risk execution in England.
Robert and his family arrived in Smithfield Virginia in 1651 where Robert took a position at the "Old Brick Church," St.Lukes, about five miles from Smithfield, Wight, VA. The bricks of the church bear the date, 1632, built under the supervision of Robert Bridger. Robert's pastorate was known as Lawne's Creek Parish and was in an area between and including what is now both Surry and Isle of Wight, VA. The area that was Lawne's Creek is now known as Southwark Parish. It is believed that Robert arrived in Virginia before 1649. On 29 April 1650, Robert was a witness to an agreement in Virginia. It is said that Robert owned a plantation on Blackwater River as early as 1635. Robert and his family did live on Blackwater River, a few miles south of the James River.
Robert married about 1642 to Rebecca Izard, daughter of John Isard of the Isle of Wight, VA. His will is dated 15 Feb 1667.

(Robert BRASWELL, Jr. was the eldest son of the Reverend ROBERT BRASWELL and his wife (unknown ?), of the Isle of Wight County, Virginia. Please remember as you read this that the Bracewells had many ties to the United Kingdom. Some of the names are Riggs and Burgess. We know that John Bracewell died in Granthan, Lincolnshire, England 1656 and he named Robert as brother in his will. It is entirely possible that Robert Jr., being the oldest son of Rev. Robert Bracewell, traveled back and forth to England on family business. It is also know that Rev. Robert Bracewell had a tobacco warehouse on the Pagan River 1652 (see copy of ship's log) and tobacco was one of the trade goods with England. We also know from our history that the colonies would need goods such as either sheep for wool or wool from England, coffee, tea, sugar and salt were in demand by the colonies also. Plus we do know the Bracewells were well off during this time.)
