Hi Rooters,

I think I may have found something! please give me your feedback. I
believe the Arthur HASLINGTON is highly likely Arthur HORSINGTON -
HOISINGTON due to the previous post on John HORSINGTON b. 1625.
See the following deeds; But a little County History first.;
Charles River Co., >changed to York County in 1642, >to Cloucester Co.,
in 1651, >to York Co., (part of James City) 1654, to New Kent Co. 1691,
>to King & Queen Co., & King William Co. in 1691, to>Spotsylvania 1720.

James City Co. 1634 >to New Norfolk Co. 1636, >split to Lower Norfolk
1637 & Upper Norfolk or Nansemond Co., in 1637. Lower Norfolk Co, >to
Princess Anne 1691. >to part of Ind. City of Virginia Beach.
Nansemond Co., and Isle of Wright Co.,[Warwick River Orig shire, change
>to Warrosquoyacke Co. 1634. Nansemond & Isle of Wright was then changed to Southampton 1749.

I hope this helps to tie all these surename's to the name HOISINGTON

Arthur Haslington, 200 acs. Warwicksquicke Co., 23 Dec. 1626, p.
408 Ely. upon lsand of Epaphroditus LAWSON, N. W. upon Nansamund Riv. &
S.E. into the woods. Due for his own per. adv. & trans. of 3 pers:
Arthur HASLINGTON, Thomas MORGAN, John BANISTER. Note: This pattent
renewed in the name of Gresham COFEILD 18 July 1640.
[BTM] this would make Arthur HASLINGTON at least of legal age to obtain
land and to trans. others Est dob would be ca 1580-1600. This is likely
Arthur HORSINGTON - HOISINGTON see below

1636, p. 408. Joyning upon land of Arthur HASLINGTON Ely., N. W. upon
Nansamund Riv. & S. E. into the woods. Due for his owne per. adv.
[BTM]This places Arthur to be still in "Warwicksquicke" Co. ten years
later.

Isle of Wright Co., 14 Aug. 1638, p. 588 Joyning upon land of
Epaphroditus LAWSON Ely., N. W. upon Nansamund Riv. Due by assignment
from Arthur HASLINGTON.
[BTM] In 1638 Arthur assigns the land to Gresham COFFEILD.

1640, p. 728. Adj. Epaphropditus LAWSON. N. W. upon Nansamund River,
etc. Due by assignment from Arthur HALLINGTON of patent dated 23 Dec.
1636.
[BTM] Now the name is written as HALLINGTON still highly likely that it
should be HOISINGTON depending on who is written the information and the
dialect use. He is next recorded as being of Low. Norf. Co.

Page 894. Upon the head br. of Clarks Cr., belonging to the W. br. od
Eliz. River, adj. land of Mr. Georg WHITE & towards Mr. Richard
BENNETT. For trans. of 4 pers., assigned to him by Arthur HASLINGTON,
vist: Richard LEAKE, John BUTLER, Priscilla HASLETON, Thomas BAINHAM.
[BTM] This places Arthur HASLINGTON(HORSINGTON?) Richard Leake, John
Butler, Priscilla HASLETON(possible HORSINGTON) and Thomas BAINHAM
together in Low Norfolk Co. Remember John HORSINGTON is also noted with
BAINHAM and BUTLER in New Kent Co. as previously posted.
*****
To conclude these entries, to me it shows that Arthur HASLINGTON [or
HORSINGTON or HOISINGTON], now mentioned in Low. Norf. Co. where John
HORSINGTON was, is most highly likely to be of some relation of John
HORSINGTON b. 1625. Age, place and association of other surnames places
him as a possible father to John.
