The County of Chesterfield County,Virginia  was created in 1749 from Henrico County.  Henrico County, Virginia  was one of the original Shires of Virginia created in 1634.  The Chesterfield county seat is located in Chesterfield, VA.

Unless otherwise noted, the following records were extracted and/or submitted by TOTTY researcher Birdie (Totty) McNutt

1693   Birth of . William W. TOTTY, son of Thomas and Mary TOTTY, Sr. Henrico County, VA
Notes:   He was born in Bristol Parish, Henrico County, Virginia, and died Bef. October 05, 1759 in Dale Parish, Chesterfield County, Virginia.  He married Mary Unknown Abt. 1720 in of Henrico County, Virginia.  She died Aft. 1765 in Dale Parish, Chesterfield County, Virginia. William was the son of Thomas and Mary TOTTY, his mother was the widow of Thomas DAVIS before her marriage to Thomas TOTTY.   William TOTTY is hereinafter called William TOTTY, Sr.



ca 1720  Marriage  William TOTTY, Sr.  to Mary Unknown  Henrico County, VA
Notes:   William is the son of Thomas TOTTY and Mary nee Carter, widow of Thomas DAVIS.   We are still progress of identifying the maiden name of William's wife Mary.  Some researcher's claim that William TOTTY, Sr. born 1693 was married to Mary HAESTIN/HASTINGS born 1745, however this is NOT possible since she was born long AFTER the birth of William and Mary's children as documented in the Bristol Parish Records of Henrico.   Mary HASTINGS TOTTY was the daughter of John and Amy TUCKER HAESTIN-HASTINGS who were married in 1739.  Mary named in her father John HASTINGS will,  was likely to have married William TOTTY, Jr. who was born March 15, 1726/7   However we are still in the process of documenting which TOTTY she was actually married to.


ca 1720-1725  Birth  of Elizabeth  TOTTYHenrico County, Virginia;

CAN ANYONE help on the below TOTTY families, PLEASE!!!  Looked at the original 1810 census records on microfilm M252-67, for our TOTTY families and transcribed them as follows:

TOTTY, Harriet  Chesterfield Co., VA  page 54        212010321105
[BTM] Who was Harriet married to? and what was her maiden name?  She was over 45 and has a male listed in HH over 45, was this her TOTTY husband or possibly her father??  She had a big family according to this census.

TOTTY, Abnor   Chesterfield Co., VA  page 55        001000000000
[BTM] Which Abnor TOTTY is this?  He was age 16 to 26.
[CW] Abnor is probably the son of John Totty, Jr. and wife (or 2nd wife) Hastin Tamer.  John is probably the son of John & Mary Totty with siblings of Benjamin Green Totty, Elizabeth 'Betsey' married Cousins, Milley married Blankenship, Margaret    married Dishman and Phoebe ?         John Jr.'s will was written Sept 8, 1794 and probated July 11, 1795 in
Chesterfield Co, VA.  It mentions sons: Archibald, John, Abner(This is the one I believe you have listed in the 1810 census)
wife: Hastin Tamer; Dau: Mary & Lucy (by 1st wife??) and Rachel Beavel.  Abner, I believe married Edith Partram on Nov 7, 1811 in Chesterfield Co,VA.
[BTM]  I only have one wife listed for John TOTTY, Jr.   Can you  tell us who the first wife possibly was? if he had been married before.  I do not show a wife other than Hastin Tamer Beavel TOTTY.  Thanks for your idea's.

TOTTY, William Chesterfield Co., VA  page 55        200101001000
[BTM]  This William is age 26 to 45 and has a wife in same age bracket with 2 sons under 10 and one daughter under 10.

TOTTY, Nancy   Chesterfield Co., VA  page 63       310002111000
[BTM] Was Nancy's maiden name COUSINS and was her husband Benjamin Green TOTTY deceased?  I show children for them named as: sons:  John and George; with daughters: Nancy, Elizabeth and Mary Ann.  Who was the third son and fourth daughter.  Is this the correct family? Can anyone give us more detail's on the family?
OR most likely was this Nancy FOWLER TOTTY wife of Jesse TOTTY, who was deceased by June 8, 1795??
[CW]  Nancy  who married Benjamin Green Totty (he didn't die before 1810 - so where would he be?) I don't have any other children either.    I don't believe it could be the one who married Jesse Totty as he died before mid-1795 and there are 5 children in this household that were born between 1800 and 1810 (3 boys and 2 girls.)  Anybody else have other ideas?
[BTM]  Just a thought, but in household of Nancy, [possibly Fowler] TOTTY, there is also a female age 16-26 who could possibly be a daughter in law, married to Jesse TOTTY, Jr. born 1785.   These young children could be grandchildren of Nancy [Fowler] TOTTY.   Could Jesse Jr. also have died prior to this 1810 census?



1826 July 10th Marriage of Sally TOTTY to Daniel VADEN, Chesterfield County, Virginia
Notes:  Daniel Vaden was the son of Verlinche Moore Vaden the daughter of George and Frances Moore.  Daniel and Sally had children Appeloney, Elizabeth and Mase VADEN.
