        Note:
        James & Mary were from Westmoreland Co., VA.

        The last name was changed to Courtney from Courtnell.

        I have seen James birth year as 1638 & 1640. Most of the info I looked at had 1640 as his birth year so I have decided to use 1640 until I have proof otherwise.

        Following is a transcript of the probate record of James Courtney.:
        26 February 1700 -Upon motion of George Eskridge on behalf of James Courtnell and Mary Courtnell and rest of children and orphants of James Courtnell, late of this County, it is ordered that Thomas Garland, Nathaniel Garland and Samuel Rust divide the estate of James Courtnell produced and shown to them into seven equal shares, according to quantity and quality and that after such division James Courtnell shall make choice of Mary Courtnell and of such seventh part as she shall make choice of, and further ordered residue of James Courtnell's estate divided and belonging to John Courtnell, Hannah Courtnell, Frances Courtnell, Martha Courtnell and William Courtnell, the other five children and orphants of James Courtnell to the end the Court may take such care in and above the same and may be agreeable to law for benefit and interest of orphants respectively.
