Note: Some reports Thomas to have been born in Great Cheverell, Wilshire England.

According to the James Andrews book of Old Rappahannock Co., Virginia, one branch of the Andrews family began with Thomas Andrews born in Great Britain in 1663 of Thomas Andrews. He arrived in the Colony of Virginia on January 27, 1685 aboard the ship "Richard & Elizabeth", commanded by Captain Williams. He was 22 years old when he embarked to come to the Colonies according to Hernico County Colonial Records, 1 Dec 1691, Colonial Records, Book 5, Page 263. In 1691, six years after arrival he was in Curle's Neck area of Henrico Co., 15 miles SE of where Richmond was founded 40 years later. He received a land grant in Oct. 20, 1704 for 396 acres on the north bank of the Appomattox River for paying passage from England of eight immigrants. He had apparently four sons and three daughters:

Thomas Andrews Jr. b. ? d. 1754 married Jane.
William Andrews m. Avis Garnett
John Andrews who was willed the 396 acres farm.
Richard Andrews b. ? m. Mary, d. ca. 1752

Thomas was 22 years old when he embarked to come to the Colonies according to Hernico County Colonial Records, 1 Dec 1691, Colonial Records, Book 5, Page 263. In 1691 he was recorded in Curle's Neck area of Henrico County, 15 miles southeast of where Richmond was later founded (1741). He received a 396 acre land grant October 20, 1704 on the north bank of the Appomattox River for paying passage from England for eight immigrants.

Information from Bob L. Andrews, Hendersonville, TN

Another record from Jenny Barton:

Thomas was 22 years old in 1685 when he came to America on the ship "Richard & Elizabeth" as an indentured servant, according to the Henrico Country VA Colonial Records, 1 Dec 1691, Book 5, Page 263. In 1691 he was recorded in Curle's Neck area of Henrico County, 15 miles south east of where Richmond was later founded (1741). He received a 396 acre land grant in October 20, 1704 on the north bank of the Appomattox River for paying passage from England for eight immigrants. In his will, dated 21 April 1731, he named five sons, Thomas, Richard, Benjamin, William and John and two daughters, Donivant and Anne Granger (Henrico Co., VA Will & Deed Book 1725-1737) Thomas' death date is unknown, but the will was dated 21 April 1731.

Death: AFT. 21 AUG 1731 Bristol Parish, Henrico Co., VA

Note: Date 11-15-1988- Macon County clippings of Molten Tayse book Vol 2
page 497 Cal's Col. Macon Co. Times dated 7-23-1953 - Calvin Gregory is at
his mothers home place talking with Ben Hooper Beasley. I Quote: "Ben Hooper Beasley son of Lum Beasley, son of Henry Beasley, son of Calvin Gregory ( ty. error -Beasley ) who married Susan Gregory daughter of Big Tom Gregory our own great grand-parents.

Note: John Andrews and his descendants from the files of Frances Sanders.

Not clear if this will applies however it is given for study and consideration
because the names and dates seem to match. John was born in Hernico Co.,
rather than Sussex Co., i.e. names of two sons Stephen & Frederick and his
wife Sarah.

Note: Isham Beasley was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. He came to Smith Co., TN and became a very wealthy farmer and builder of roads. He married Mary "Polly" Andrews and they reportedly had about 16 children. Beasley Bend was named after him. Isham came to Tenn. in 1798 with brothers, Jessie Fendal and Ephriam.

From Cal's Column: March 19, 1953
Isham Beasley lived first in Smith County in what is called Beasley’s Bend, to the southwest of Riddleton. In fact we understand that the Bend took its name from Isham Beasley. Peyton’s Creek is a stream about 20 miles long that rises about seven to ten miles east of Lafayette, flows generally southward and empties into the Cumberland not far from Riddleton, above mentioned. But we confess that we do not know exactly where the road over which Isham Beasley was appointed overseer, left Peyton’s Creek.

We have quite a number of items concerning Isham Beasley which we hope to give in a later article. This man was form North Carolina, and served in the American Revolution. He married Polly Andrews and by her, was the father of perhaps 16 sons and daughters. After having lived for some time in the section now known as Beasely’s Bend, he removed to the Sullivan’s Bend section higher up the Cumberland where he became wealthy for his day and time, owning hundreds of acres of good land and scores of slaves. His will is on file at Carthage and we may publish it at some future time. He is listed as the head of a family in the Smith County Census Record for 1820, as follows: One male under ten, one male 10 to 16, one male 16 to 18, one male 18 to 26, and one male from 45 upward. We suppose that he was the male above 45. Females were: Two between 10 and 16, one from 16 to 26, one female from 26 to 45, and 30 slaves. There is not one family of Tooleys listed in the 1820 census, so we are to infer that the family had removed from Smith County by that time.

May 22, 1952:
“Isham Beasley exhibited his stock mark, being a crop and a half-crop in the left ear, and a half-crop in the right. Ordered to be recorded.” Isham Beasley was a soldier of the American Revolution and married Polly Andrews. He and his wife appear to have lived first in Smith County in Beasely’s Bend, back of the present Riddleton. Later, he bought many acres of land in Sullivan’s Bend, built a fine country estate there and became on to the richest men in Smith County. He left a very large number of sons and daughter, 16 in number, we believe. His will is still on file in the office of the County Court Clerk at Carthage, and makes settlement of his estate which embraced perhaps a hundred Negro slaves, and thousands of acres of land. Just why he gave part of his heirs, “Twenty-five dollars, no more or no less,” and others large number of slave and broad acres of land, we do not know. Perhaps he felt that he had already done for those who were given the small amount, all that he had the right to expect of their father. All Beasleys of this section are descended form Isham and Polly.

May 20, 1954:
"Ordered that William L. Alexander, Isham Beasley and Anthony be patrollers in Capt. Samuel's Company." We would suppose that William L. Alexander lived in the vicinity of the present Dixon Springs; that he was most probably related to the Daniel Alexander who was in that distant day and time overseer of the road leading up Middle Fork of Goose Creek, through the Gap of the Ridge and thence down Long Creek. Isham Beasley's Bend, south of Dixon Springs, until he removed to the Sullivan's Bend section, north of the present Elmwood. Anthony Samuel was perhaps the Captain Samuel referred to in the same item. A patroller of 152 years ago looked after runaway slaves among other duties and was a dread and a terror to slaves, who used to mention the patroller in some of their songs. We have heard some of the old songs that indicated the dread and terror on the part of slaves toward the patrollers.
