;
Per "Dogetts and Other cousins":
     "On 21 Sep 1664, the Rev. Benjamin was married in Hadleigh to a young widow, Jane Garrard. The identity of Jane's first husband and parents are uncertain, although the death of a Charles Garrard is recorded in the Hadleigh parish register as occurring 10 Apr 1664."

Jane (?) died on 12 June 1682 at Lancaster Co., Virginia, USA, at age 45.1 She married John Boatman after 1683
;
Her 3rd husband. Per "Dogetts and Other cousins":
     "Soon after the death of the Rev. Benjamin, his widow, Jane, married for the third time. Her new husband was John Boatman. John was apparently not popular with his stepchildren, and when young Benjamin became of age he sued Boatman in county court for taking advantage of Richard by putting him to work in the fields and not providing adequate support for him. The court ordered an accounting to be made by Boatman and restitution to be made to him. We can imagine that relations continued to be strained, as county court records."2
     GAV-8.3
In Rev. Benjamin Doggett's will dated 14 March 1681 at Lancaster Co., Virginia, USA, Jane (?) was named as an heir;
Per "Dogetts and Other cousins":
     "Benjamin died in Lancaster County in 1682 or 1683, leaving a will of record dated 14 Mar 1681/2. The will was probated in Lancaster County in January 1682/3. See transcript of will.
     "The will divides the 350 acre plantation between his three sons, Benjamin, Richard and William, with Benjamin receiving 150 acres and the two younger sons receiving 100 acres each. His wife Jane was given the use of the land until remarriage. His daughter Anne was given personal property, to be given in two equal annual installments, provided she did not marry before reaching age 18. As she had to be nearly 18 at the time the will was drawn, this would not seem to have been a serious problem for her.
     "The reference in the will to Benjamin's daughter Jane is intriguing. "I give unto my daughter Jane Doggett in England twenty shillings and no more because she hath been detained from me and is surely provided for." We can speculate from this that Benjamin was not happy with the fact that Jane had not come to America with the family. Perhaps she had physical or mental infirmities that made it unwise for her to attempt to make the arduous trip to America, and she may have been kept by Benjamin's wife's family or may have been institutionalized.
     "Benjamin also provided in his will for payment of his debts to George Flowers and to Robert Griggs, primarily out of tobacco, but also out of the sale of planks sawed out of timber on the plantation, and of the sale of pipe staves. Pipe staves were used to make pipes or casks of wood in which tobacco was shipped to England, and may have been hewn from timber on Benjamin's plantation.
     "Benjamin had accumulated a library for use in performing his ministerial duties, and otherwise. Apparently there was not a good market for these books in Virginia, and Benjamin directed that the books be appraised, that a "great chest" be bought, and the books be packed up and sent to England to be sold. The money realized from the sale was to be used to help pay the debt to Robert Griggs, and if there was any surplus, the money was to be used by his widow to buy a mourning ring with the inscription "Follow Me." The purchase of mourning rings bearing memorial inscriptions was a popular custom at the time, and the rings could be quite valuable. The two executors were given 20 shillings to purchase mourning rings also.
     "Benjamin directed that he be buried beneath the chancel in St. Mary's Whitechapel church. As it is believed that the present church was built a hundred yards or so from the original location, we do not know whether his remains were reinterred when the new church was built, but we would hope that this was the case.

"Early Colonial Settlers of Southern Maryland and Virginia's Northern Neck Counties":
     "LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE REV. BENJAMIN DOGGETT
Recorded 10 January 1682/83 in Lancaster County, Virginia, Will Book 5, Page 82
(Spelling and punctuation modernized)

- The Last Will and Testament of CHRISTOPHER THRELKELL deceased was presented in Court by MARY DOGGETT his Executrix who made Oath thereto and being proved by the Oath of GEORGE EVERITT one of the witnesses to the said Will is admitted to Record, and on the motion of BENJAMINE DOGGETT and MARY his wife Executrix as aforesaid and their performing what is Usual in such Cases Certificate is granted them for obtaining a probate thereof in due form."1 Rev. Benjamin Doggett and Jane Doggett immigrated before 28 January 1669 to Virginia, USA.3
In Rev. Benjamin Doggett's will dated 14 March 1681 at Lancaster Co., Virginia, USA, Benjamin Doggett was named as an heir;
Per "Dogetts and Other cousins":
     "Benjamin died in Lancaster County in 1682 or 1683, leaving a will of record dated 14 Mar 1681/2. The will was probated in Lancaster County in January 1682/3. See transcript of will.
     "The will divides the 350 acre plantation between his three sons, Benjamin, Richard and William, with Benjamin receiving 150 acres and the two younger sons receiving 100 acres each. His wife Jane was given the use of the land until remarriage. His daughter Anne was given personal property, to be given in two equal annual installments, provided she did not marry before reaching age 18. As she had to be nearly 18 at the time the will was drawn, this would not seem to have been a serious problem for her.
     "The reference in the will to Benjamin's daughter Jane is intriguing. "I give unto my daughter Jane Doggett in England twenty shillings and no more because she hath been detained from me and is surely provided for." We can speculate from this that Benjamin was not happy with the fact that Jane had not come to America with the family. Perhaps she had physical or mental infirmities that made it unwise for her to attempt to make the arduous trip to America, and she may have been kept by Benjamin's wife's family or may have been institutionalized.
     "Benjamin also provided in his will for payment of his debts to George Flowers and to Robert Griggs, primarily out of tobacco, but also out of the sale of planks sawed out of timber on the plantation, and of the sale of pipe staves. Pipe staves were used to make pipes or casks of wood in which tobacco was shipped to England, and may have been hewn from timber on Benjamin's plantation.
     "Benjamin had accumulated a library for use in performing his ministerial duties, and otherwise. Apparently there was not a good market for these books in Virginia, and Benjamin directed that the books be appraised, that a "great chest" be bought, and the books be packed up and sent to England to be sold. The money realized from the sale was to be used to help pay the debt to Robert Griggs, and if there was any surplus, the money was to be used by his widow to buy a mourning ring with the inscription "Follow Me." The purchase of mourning rings bearing memorial inscriptions was a popular custom at the time, and the rings could be quite valuable. The two executors were given 20 shillings to purchase mourning rings also.
     "Benjamin directed that he be buried beneath the chancel in St. Mary's Whitechapel church. As it is believed that the present church was built a hundred yards or so from the original location, we do not know whether his remains were reinterred when the new church was built, but we would hope that this was the case.

In Rev. Benjamin Doggett's will dated 14 March 1681 at Lancaster Co., Virginia, USA, Anne Doggett was named as an heir;
Per "Dogetts and Other cousins":
     "Benjamin died in Lancaster County in 1682 or 1683, leaving a will of record dated 14 Mar 1681/2. The will was probated in Lancaster County in January 1682/3. See transcript of will.
     "The will divides the 350 acre plantation between his three sons, Benjamin, Richard and William, with Benjamin receiving 150 acres and the two younger sons receiving 100 acres each. His wife Jane was given the use of the land until remarriage. His daughter Anne was given personal property, to be given in two equal annual installments, provided she did not marry before reaching age 18. As she had to be nearly 18 at the time the will was drawn, this would not seem to have been a serious problem for her.
     "The reference in the will to Benjamin's daughter Jane is intriguing. "I give unto my daughter Jane Doggett in England twenty shillings and no more because she hath been detained from me and is surely provided for." We can speculate from this that Benjamin was not happy with the fact that Jane had not come to America with the family. Perhaps she had physical or mental infirmities that made it unwise for her to attempt to make the arduous trip to America, and she may have been kept by Benjamin's wife's family or may have been institutionalized.
     "Benjamin also provided in his will for payment of his debts to George Flowers and to Robert Griggs, primarily out of tobacco, but also out of the sale of planks sawed out of timber on the plantation, and of the sale of pipe staves. Pipe staves were used to make pipes or casks of wood in which tobacco was shipped to England, and may have been hewn from timber on Benjamin's plantation.
     "Benjamin had accumulated a library for use in performing his ministerial duties, and otherwise. Apparently there was not a good market for these books in Virginia, and Benjamin directed that the books be appraised, that a "great chest" be bought, and the books be packed up and sent to England to be sold. The money realized from the sale was to be used to help pay the debt to Robert Griggs, and if there was any surplus, the money was to be used by his widow to buy a mourning ring with the inscription "Follow Me." The purchase of mourning rings bearing memorial inscriptions was a popular custom at the time, and the rings could be quite valuable. The two executors were given 20 shillings to purchase mourning rings also.
     "Benjamin directed that he be buried beneath the chancel in St. Mary's Whitechapel church. As it is believed that the present church was built a hundred yards or so from the original location, we do not know whether his remains were reinterred when the new church was built, but we would hope that this was the case.

     William Doggett was the youngest child of the Rev. Benjamin Doggett. He was born in Lancaster County, Virginia, about 1676. Little has been discovered concerning his early life.
     William received under his father's will recorded in Lancaster County in 1682 a devise of 100 acres of land, being a part of the 350 acre plantation owned by his father, on condition that he not marry until reaching age 22. This devise was under the same terms as the 100 acre devise to his brother Richard, that is, that the land be improved and indentured servants to be purchased with William's share of the tobacco belonging to the estate. The will also provided that William should live with his older brother Benjamin until he should be capable to live on his own. As William was only five or six years old when his father died, it was a number of years before he could take possession of the land. Of course, he would be entitled to any net profits realized by his guardian from cultivation of the property. County records do not record any formal appointment of a guardian, but it must be assumed that his father's wishes as expressed in the will were followed, and brother Benjamin acted as William's guardian.
     William was married, undoubtedly after 1698, and probably before 1704 when he first appeared in a Lancaster County tax list. However, his wife's identity is uncertain. It has been speculated that his wife's name was Betty, and that her surname was perhaps George, but the basis for such opinion is tenuous. The probability of a son being named Elmore, which is a name appearing in the George family, and not otherwise in the Doggett family, provides some basis for the speculation. (N.B. I am not certain whether all of the court orders in the Lancaster County Order book have been examined, and perhaps there are some clues that I have missed.)
     William died in 1716 in Lancaster County, Virginia. His will dated 20 Feb 1716/7, was recorded in court records on 13 Mar 1716/7. His will refers to his wife, but does not name her. The will names his daughter Jane and his son William and refers generally to "all my children." The will was witnessed by William's brothers Benjamin and Richard, and by John Bell, who was a minister who served in Lancaster County following the death of Rev. Benjamin's immediate successor, Andrew Jackson. Elmore George and Edwin Conway were named as executors of the will, but it does not appear that Col. Conway served as such. The cause of William's death is not known, but the will states that he was "weak in body" by "unfortunate accident."
     Although the will only names two of William's children, it is known that there were six children. The will leaves the personal estate to the widow and children. There are court proceedings in 1725 and 1728 brought on behalf of William and Benjamin, children of William, each for one-seventh of the estate. Elmore Doggett is universally recognized as a child of William, based on common relationships and similarity of names, and the presumption would seem to be correct, although no direct evidence has been seen. Benjamin was born about the time of William's untimely death, and may have even been born posthumously. The names of the other two children are not known. One researcher has stated that the children were daughters Sarah and Hannah, but no evidence is cited in support of that statement. One possible candidate for a child's place is Isaac Doggett who married Elizabeth Churchwell in Richmond County, Virginia, in 1729, but no evidence can be cited in proof of that relationship.
     In August 1728, William's son William was acting as guardian of his brother Benjamin. This would indicate that William was born prior to 1707, and was probably the eldest son.
     No information has been found documenting death or remarriage of William's widow. Richard Boatman, a cousin, was acting as guardian of the younger William in 1725, so it may be that her death or remarriage occurred before that date. at Citation.3
In Rev. Benjamin Doggett's will dated 14 March 1681 at Lancaster Co., Virginia, USA, William Doggett was named as an heir;
Per "Dogetts and Other cousins":
     "Benjamin died in Lancaster County in 1682 or 1683, leaving a will of record dated 14 Mar 1681/2. The will was probated in Lancaster County in January 1682/3. See transcript of will.
