!Nicholas lived twelve miles down the Ja

!Nicholas lived twelve miles down the James River from Richmond and three miles below Dutch Gap. !He was a Quaker and had married prior to the 7 mo. 8 day 16 99 when he condemned at the Friends meeting his previous marriage by a priest. On 6mo 8 day 1701 he married Mary Watkins in Henrick County where on 4 mo 2 day 1702 he received land by patent. He died between 1728 and 1729. Mary may have been his third wife. His widow later married Mr. Holmes. !"The Quakers had a rule that a member must marry another member. They observed this rule to the lett er. If a member married a non-member, first a complaint was made and a committee appointed to visit the offending member. Unless the member acted to set himself right, he was disowned, and a record made to that effect. The usual way to get things right was to condemn the marriage, usually in writing. Then the records would be made as 'Nicholas did condemn his marriage by priest to the satisfac tionof Friends'. In that case, 'priest' meant by a minister of the Church of England. This was the state religion of Virginia." !Note: Quaker records usually are noted in the Old Style dates where the New Year was in March and the months count from March (1st Month) with February as the 12th month. !Nicholas was on a committee to consider a marriage (Quaker). He reported that he thought first cousinsshould not marry. (Despite his belief, many of his decendants did marry first cousins, and many of them were disowned by the Quakers as a result.) Valentine Papers, p 2045, by Edward Pleasant s Valentine. !Nicholas Hutchins is the earliest member of the Hutchins family of whom we have positive proof. He was a Quaker living in Henrico County, Virginia in 1699. He belonged to the Henrico M onthly Meeting at Curles (established in 1690) and later to the White Oak Swamp Meeting (established 1702). Before the building of the meetinghouse, services were held at the homes of members, often at the home of William Porter and sometime s at the home of Nicholas Hutchins. Nicholas contributed 40 lbs of tobacco towards the building of a new Meeting House at Curles. (Henrico MM, H:6:184) !J amestown had been settled in 1607, and Henrico only a short time later, in 1611. This "Cradle of the Republic", as it has been called, along the James River in Virginia, was settled many years befor e the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock. !Many genealogies and family records give the birthplace of Nicholas Hutchins as England or Wales; but there is nothing to substantiate these claims. Similarly , the fatherof Nicholas has been given as Isaac, Robert, or another Nicholas Hutchins. From the Court Records of Henrico County it is possible to disprove either Isaac or Robert as the father of Nic holas. !The birth of Nicholas is often given as 1645, but there is no proof for this. !Nicholas was a farmer and possibly a mariner. !Nicholas Hutchins was an early settler on the Lord Baltimore estat es and is recorded on the lands known as Our Lady's Manor. !The members of the Nicholas Hutchins family were birth right Quakers. To understand their lives and affairs, one should study the Friends C hurch of that early period. To the Quakers, religion was a serious matter to be taken into their daily lives. Church rules and discipline were strictly maintained. To them marriage was a church aff air. No hastymarriages for them. The parties must declare their intentions at a monthly meeting. A committee was appointed to investigate the clearness of the parties and report to the next monthl y meeting. If aQuaker married a non-member, he was said to have "Married Out of Unity", for which he or she was disowned unless the fault was condemned. Complaint was made against members for unseem ly conduct, dressing too gaily, swearing, lying, frivolous talk, military service, gambling, drinking, not paying debts, holding slaves, absence from church, fighting, and for more serious offenses. And for any of these might be disowned. A m ember was not allowed to go to Law, without the consent of the meeting. But always the church appointed a committee to visit the erring member, to help hi m see the error of his way. A disowned member ceased to exist as far as the church was concerned. Often parents did not allow a disowned heir to inherit. The older Hutchins belong to four meetings. In Henrico County, Virginia, several meetings were grouped under the name Henrico Meetings. In upper Hanover County, near Montpelier, was located Cedar Creek Meeting, one of the most prominent in Vi rginia. A number of small meetings were located in its terrirory. It was a Monthly Meeting, a Quarterly Meeting and a Yearly Meeting. When the Hutchins moved to Surry County, North Carolina, and se ttled on the branches of Forbush Creek, they placed their membership at Deep River Meeting, about thirty miles away. Soon services were held near at Deep Creek. In 1793, Deep Creek became a separate meeting, with the Hutchins leading members. !Nicholas lived twelve miles down the James River from Richmond and three miles below Dutch Gap. !He was a Quaker and had married prior to the 7 mo. 8 day 1699 when he condemned at the Friends meeting his previous marriage by a priest. On 6mo 8 day 1701 he married Mary Watkins in Henrick County where on 4 mo 2 day 1702 he received land by patent. He d ied between 1728 and 1729. Mary may have been his third wife.

In upper Hanover County, near Montpelier, was located Cedar Creek Meeting, one ofthe most prominent in Virginia. A number of small meetings were located in its terrirory.

Soon services were hel d near at Deep Creek. In 1793, Deep Creek
