DESCENDANTS OF MASTIN MOOREFIELD
One of the first records of Morefields/ Moorefields
in Virginia was for John and Thomas Morefield who
patiented land in Virginia in 1664. John Morefield
settled in New Kent C., Va, was married to Anne ____.
His and his wife's death are recorded in the Parish
Records of St. Peters Parish, New Kent and James
City Counties, Virginia. John Morefield d.- 18 Feb
1687/8 and his wife Anne d.-23 Mar 1699/1700.
They had two sons: (1)John Merfield/Moorefield who
was on the rent rolls in 1704; (2) Daniel Moorefield
who married Rachel Coker 22 Jul 1708 at St Peter's
Parish. No conncetion have been made with the
Halifax Co, Va. Moorefields at this time.

b. Dec1787,
b.- bef 1820 in Halifax Co. , Va
sp--WILMOTH STOKES m.- 21 May 1804
Records have not been found to establish
that Banister Moorefield was the son of Mastin
Moorefield and Wilmoth Stokes. It has been
assumed here, since Banister named
one of his children Mastin A. Moorefield and
their marriage date make it a promising possibilty.
A book "Marriages of Halifax Co., Va, 1801-1831"
by M.D. Chearoto gives the marriage of Mastin
and Wilmoth. The 1820 Halifax census lists
Wilmoth Moorefield as having 8 dependents.
Mastin was probably dead. Several references
refer to her as living in the Maresville area of
Halifax Co., but records giving the location of
that area have been lost it seems.
