   This William was a Quaker. He has been confused with his nephew in many of the genealogy records.In St. Paul's Processioning, this William McGehee appears to disappear after 1743. He would have been 66-76 years of age. Samuel McGehee is shown in the 1751 processioning and afterwards as deceased. The land reverts to McGehee orphans.This William was apparently reversed with William, son of Thomas, by Robert F. Cole in his letter to Dana Gatchell, 19 May 1953.Appears in St. Paul's records, Hanover County, in 1735, 1739, 1743, along with a Samuel McGehee. They have the same neighbors, particularly the Johnsons and continue to be shown in the same precinct.1704 - William Mckgehe is shown with 131 and 1/2 acres in New Kent County in that portion that became St. Paul's Parish and later Hanover County.17 Mar 1711 - William McGehee appears in Vestry Book of St. Paul's Parish, still in King William in processioning return. His holdings are grouped with George Lovell, John Johnson, Benj. Johnson, and Hugh Case, Thomas Stanley, and John HarrisThe holdings of this William McGehee were obiviously in that part of King William that became Hanover County in 1720. 1731-32 - Samuel McGehee shows up for the first time in the same precinct as William McGehee, the Quaker.Disappears from St. Paul's processioning after 1743.

   The second son, William, was a Quaker (member of the Society of Friends). From the 1704 Tax Rolls of VA, we know that he was a land owner by 1696, also that he had to be “investigated” by a committee of Quakers to determine if he was able to support a wife, among other things, so he must have been born no later than about 1675, but probably earlier. The only 2 children we can prove are his older son, James McGehee, who was born about 1695, and married in the Quaker Monthly Meeting, and younger son Samuel, who was born about 1697, and also married in the Quaker Monthly Meeting. We assume that the Catherine McGehee, who married Thomas Butts in 1713, was also William’s child – there was no one else who could have been. Since she married outside the Quakers, there should have been a “disowned” reference to her, but there are no surviving Quaker Monthly Meeting records that survive from 1713.
