Note:
IN THE WM. E. BROCKMAN BOOKS, SAMUEL BROCKMAN SR WAS
DESCRIBED AS SAMUEL (I).

1. William E. Brockman suggests that he may have lived with the Samuells
(his mother's family (could this have been Salmon instead?) in Essex
county, VA before he acquired 300 aces of land in Drysdale Parish, King
and Queen, near Newtown on the Port Tobago Road.
2. About 1732 Samuel (I) moved to Spotsylvania county to a region that
became part of Orange county, VA in 1734 when Orange was formed. This
land was purchased from John Henderson (married Sarah Brockman) who
had bought it in 1728. It was on this land he built his home, calling it
"White House." (This property later became known, in 1838, as Greenway.
This land is believed to have been located west of Stony Point and north
and east of the north fork of the Rivanna River. This land was later
occupied by his son, William, who operated a mill there, just upstream
from Brock's Bridge, until he moved to Albemarle co., VA. [Orange was
formed from Spotsylvania in 1734; Spotsylvania was formed from parts of
Essex, King and Queen and King William counties, VA in 1720/21].
3. Samuel I has been described as a Virginia planter.
4. In 1785 he acquired 1,000 acres of land in Fayette co., Kentucky; this
land was on Licking Creek, it was surveyed 27 Aug 1785 (survey #5250)
and was purchased or obtained through a Land Office Treasury Warrant
#4026 which was issued 18 Mar 1780. This land is found in Book 6:425
(Warrants and Grants of Kentucky land). The date of the land grant was
26 Oct 1787 and this date was after his death!
In 1796, after the death of Samuel Brockman, the court, upon motion of
Dillard Collins, appointed Michael Cassidy, Winslow Parker, Jacob Reed
and Patrick Allison commissioners to take the 1,000 acres in the name of
Samuel Brockman, Sr. And, in this same year, on May 12, Dillard Collins,
as agent, sold the land.

---Virginia land grants----in Kentucky county, VA----land that became the
state of KY----issued by the Commonwealth of Virginia and were based upon
warrants given in some instances as consideration for military service in the
French & Indian War, and later, for service in the Rev. War. They are dated
from 1782- 1792. There were a total of 9,564 of these grants issued.---

5. Samuel I left 350 acres of land in Albemarle co., VA to his sons Samuel
II and William. Samuel II sold his share to brother William in 1779 and
William later sold this land to John White.
6. Samuel willed 150 acres of the land in Virginia (along with the house) to
his son John.
7. His will was dated 3 Nov 1762; a codicil was added 19 Jul 1765 and the
will was probated 25 Sep 1766. The will with a codicil is printed on
pages 159-161 in the Brockman Scrapbook.

Samuel Brockman did not die on 25 September 1766. His will was proved on that day so he died before that date, up to several months before that date, but more likely a few weeks before, since he had significant property which would require more prompt action.
