This volume will be of great interest to anyone with Poquoson, York
County, Virginia ancestors, and to any library, society or archive
that collects Virginia related material. This work greatly expands
on the Holloway, Messick and Linton chapters of the Poquoson
Watermen (pub. 1988). The Holloway family came to the Jamestown
Colony in the 1620s, and eventually settled in what is now
Poquoson, (then) York County, Virginia. The Messick and Linton
families came before the War of 1812. Every census record from 1790
to 1910 known to pertain to these Poquoson families has been
abstracted and cited. The current volume brings each family from
its earliest mention in the colonial era down to the present. Many
female lines have been followed for one or more generations. The
text is well illustrated with early photographs and includes a
bibliography and an index of every individual known to be related
by birth or marriage to the families studied in this volume. Most
of the family photographs in this volume have never before been
published. This is Mr. Willett's seventh volume of family history,
and his fourth volume on the Messick area of Poquoson, York County,
Virginia. Mr. Willett is related to most of the Poquoson families
through his maternal Martin and Hopkins ancestors; he is a family
history researcher and recognized authority on the Willett surname
and on his maternal families of Poquoson, York County, Virginia.
