A suit in Chancery Court, Goochland County between Harris Wilson and John Wilson by Richard Parker, their next friend, plaintiff, and William Bostick and Micah his wife, John Bostick, Wm. Floyd and Wm. Burgamy, defendants. The sheriff having returned the subpoenas executed on John Bostick, and he failing to appear, ordered a judgement be issued against John Bostick, Wm. Bostick and wife Micah, Wm. Floyd and Wm. Burgamy."
"Now, for the Jun 1741 Chancery Court suit brought by Richard Parker on behalf of John and Harris Wilson against William Bostick [Jr.], Micha, John Bostick, William Floyd and William Burgany. I believe that further research will provide evidence that this law suit grew out of a dispute over the estate of John Wilson and Harris Wilson's father [Richard Wilson]. More specifically, I believe this dispute was over the rightful ownership of a 350 acre tract original granted to Peter Burgany, which he then sold all or part to Richard Wilson, and for which Peter Burgany held the mortgage bond. Refer to the LWT of Richard Wilson dated 11Jan1734/5 in which he makes reference to his wife "Mikey" and a tract of land to his sons (when they come of age), mortgage bond held be Peter Burgany. I believe Richard Wilson's wife to have been Michall Floyd, a daughter of Michall Harris and Edward Floyd. Note that about 45 days later on 26Feb1734/5 Peter Burgany wrote his Will in which he bequeathed two tracts of land: 200 acres "to my brother, William Floyd", and another of unknown size to my brother [name unreadble]. I believe that the beneficiary, William Floyd, was Peter Burgany's half-brother, and Michall Floyd Wilson's full-blood brother. I further believe the second tract bequeathed to another unknown 'brother' was the 150 acre remainder of the 350 acres granted to Peter Burgany, and that the unknown brother was actually Peter's brother-in-law, Richard Wilson, who had married Peter Burgany's half-sister, Michall Floyd. Finally, it is my belief that the complainants: John Wilson and Harris Wilson were the children of Richard Wilson and Michall Floyd."
