In a previous posting discussing the English roots of James Whitlock (1651-1716), the Virginia immigrant, I talked about the power of attorney that James’s cousin Anthony Whitlock of Lambeth, Surrey, England, gave in London on 12 July 1680 to empower James to settle the Virginia estate of Anthony’s uncle Thomas Whitlock (1615-1659), who died in (Old) Rappahannock County, Virginia, in 1659. I noted that this power of attorney was accompanied by supporting affidavits given in London on the same date by Anthony’s aunt Johanna Whitlock Harris of Finchley, Co. Middlesex, and James’s uncle Reverend John Whitlock of Mansfield in Nottinghamshire.
