Notes |
- We believe that James Presnell was the progenitor of nearly every Presnell in America, with very few exceptions, as there were a few Presnell immigrants from England that arrived in the 1800s.
From "Cavaliers and Pioneers," by Nellie Marion Nugent, keeper of land deeds and patents for the state of Virginia until 1935, wrote several books, giving short descriptions of all land deeds recorded between 1623 and 1800. The following is an extract:
Book #3 - Patent Book #3, page 687, November 1705, King & Queen Co., Virginia.
Robert Bell - bought 148 acres, South Side Dragon Swamp, 100 acres being that of John Robinson, 48 acres to be improved by James Presnee.
This is more than obviously James Presnal. Dragon Swamp in King and Queen County, Virginia extends into Middlesex County. Middlesex County is where the first "Presnell" records are found. John Robinson and Benjamin Harrison lived in King and Queen County. Coleman's and Daniel's lived in Middlesex County, all close to Dragon Swamp. They all attended Christ Church, Middlesex County.
