Nicholas Gentry

M, b. before 1665

Birthb 1665 Nicholas Gentry was born b 1665 at England. Nicholas's birthdate is purely a matter of estimate. He first appeared in Virginia records in 1680 as a colonial militiaman. Thus he could not have been younger than 15 (and probably a good deal older) in 1680 and could not have been born later than 1665. 
Notebt 1680 - 1684  The first reference to Nicholas Gentry is in the York County (Va.) Deeds, Order and Wills 1677-1685, volume 6, page 268: "It is the opinion of the Court and accordingly ordered that what wages is due Nicholas Gentry for being a soldier at Mattapony Garrison till June last be paid to Nicholas Sabrell by the forty wch Gentry serves for, and that Sabrell pay Gentry what wages is due him by and according to conditions made between them." The order was given at the November Court in 1680 and establishes that (a) Nicholas Gentry was in the colonies then, (b) he had served until June 1680 as a soldier in the Mattapony Garrison (probably colonial militia) and (c) he had some contractual relationship with Nicholas Sabrell, which may well have been an indentured servitude.

The next known record is the 1684 patent for 300 acres in the vicinity of Totopotomoy's Creek in New Kent County (later Hanover County) by Samuel Gentry. The entry in the patent book is cited in Nell Marion Nugent's "Cavaliers and Pioneers: Abstracts of Virginia Land Patents and Grants. Vol. II (1666-1695)", page 282: "Samuell Gentrey, 300 acs., New Kent Co; S. side of York River; Betw. brs. of same and brs. of Tottapottamoys Cr., 21 Oct 1684, p. 405 (of Patent Book 7). Adj. Col. John Page, Esqr; Edward Houchin and Nicholas Gentrey. Trans. of 6 pers; John Morris, Francis Middleton, Hen. Tully, Elizabeth Ody, Mor. Gardner, 2." This record establishes that Nicholas Gentry held land in New Kent County adjacent to that of Samuel Gentry (believed to be his brother, but there is no documentary evidence of that).
