      «/b»James Herndon was born about 1683 in New Kent County, Virginia. In 1692 King and Queen County was created out of New Kent County.

      In the Quit Rent Roll for King and Queen County dated 1704 James Herndon was charged with the ownership of 100 acres of land. In all probability these acres were part of the original grant made in 1673 to his father William Herndon.

      It seems that James died after March 1743 in Caroline County since there had been numerous references to him in the Caroline County Court Order books prior to that point.

      Descendants of James say that his wife was Mary george, a descendant of the Royal House of Wales. She is the eldest daughter of Robert George (1666-1734) and his wife Sarah Elliott who died 1734 (Robert and Sarah married July 6, 1687 in Middlesex County, Virginia) .
