+ | A varient of the name Onesiphorus appeared in the British Colony of Virginia in America. The earliest reference to Onecephorus was found in Northumberland County, Virginia on 4 Dec. 1702, when he witnessed the will of Patrick Pollick, which was re- recorded 16 Jan 1716/17.8 On 16 July 1705, Onecephorus Harvey witnessed a deed of Mahane to Childton.8 Then, on February 23, 1709/10 Onesph. Harvey witnessed the signing of the will of John Harris in Northumberland Co. Virginia.3a Probably this same Onecephorus Harvey is the one who is mentioned in this court record: "The Grand jury having presented Dorothy Gaskins for having a bastard child and Onecephorus Harvey coming into Court affirmed that the said Dorothy is and for some time before the child was borne (for which she was presented) was his wife, and that they were marryed according to the Rule of the Quakers whose Religion they profess And having here in Court proved such their marryage the said Presentment is therefore dismissed the said Harvie paying Costs. 18 Nov. 1713." | ||
