The (Old) Rappahannock County Order book of 1685 - 1687 for the 3rd day of August 1687 (p.89) continues:
"Whereas by virture of an Attachmt. issued & signed by his Excellecny directed to the High Sheriff of Rappa: County against the Estate of Colnll. Cadwalider Jones (JO-1) at the Suit of the Honble. Nicholas Spencer Esqr. (SPE-1) the Sheriff made seizure of goods belonging to the sd Colnll. Jones (JO-1) in the hands of Robert Taliaferro (TA-1) amt: in value to Eighteen hundred pounds of tobb & cask and a Silver Cup and the sd Taliaferro (TA-1) refusing to render up the sd goods & Cup, the Court upon representation thereof have ordered that the sd Robert Taliaferro (TA-1) forthwith deliver the sd goods & Silver Cup to the Sheriff to the use of the sd Nicholas Spencer, Esq. (SPE-1)"
"Court adjourned till after Diner"
Not wanting to give up the "goods", including the Silver Cup, which had been placed in the hands of Robert Taliaferro (TA-1), the court orders old Robert to give the goods to the said Nicholas Spencer. Our Cadwallader would have left the county by now, and was on his way to England. You will have to read back through the post to connect how these goods were connected to Robert Taliaferro (TA-1) and our Cadwallader Jones (JO-1).

CJ (#37) In Rappa: Court July 1687
The transfer of "Goods and Chattles" of Cadwallader Jones (JO-1) to Robert Taliaferro (TA-1) is recorded in my post of September 3. An addition to this record is recorded "July the 5th 1687. It reads as follows:
" 8ber 20th 1686. Then assigned all my right interest and title whatsoever for a Negro man called Black Jack to Mr. Robt. Taliaferro (TA-1) and his heires for ever, it being in part of his potion due to him from his Father in my hands, I say, assigned with warrantie per me
David Meredith. (MER-2) Cadwalader Jones (JO-1)
Jno. Battaile (BAT-1)
Recognitr in Cur Com Rappa: 3 die August 1687 et record 12th die "
"ss. These are to desire you to acknowledge in Rappa:Court two Bills of Sale to Mr. Robt. Taliaferro (TA-1) and yor; so doing this shall be yor: warrant Witness my hand July the 5th 1687
Test John Taliaferro (TA-4) Cadwalader Jones (JO-1)
John Battaile (BAT-1)
Recordr. Cur Com Rappa; 12th die August 1687 "
By this record it would seem that our Cadwallader (JO-1) was still present in (Old) Rappahannock County when he signed the above. [July 5th 1687 ] It was recorded in the records of the court on the 12th day of August 1687. As far as I can tell, this would be the last time that our Cadwallader (JO-1) appears in person in Rappahannock County until after 1700. This record also documents that our Cadwallader (JO-1) had control of the estate of Robert Taliaferro (Sr.) (TA-2) at the date October 8th, 1686.

CJ (#37) Sold and Delivered
You certainly can see how confusing it can get climbing those family tree branches. The life of our Cadwallader (JO-1) is such a branch. This document is found in (Old) Rappahannock County Deed Book 1686 - 1688, p. 68. It is recorded as "March the 8th 1687" and it seems to be signed on this date. It is recorded in the court records on "3 die August 1687 et record 12th die". There is an addendum dated "8ber 20th 1686" which was recorded "3 die August 1687 et record 12th die" and a "two Bills of Sale" dated "July the 5th 1687" which in the record states "Recordr. Cur Com Rappa: 12th die August 1687". Well, anyway, let me give the documents as written. Remember that our Cadwallader (JO-1) is reported to have left for Maryland around the 17th of January 1687. [see last post]
"March the 8th 1687"
"An Account of Goods and Chattles sold and delivered unto Mr. Robt. Taliaferro (TA-1) as Gardian of Charles (TA-5) and Catharine Taliaferro (TA-6) for the Orphans Estate amount to ninety eight pounds seven Shillings and four pence (vizt) To one Negro called Frank, To one Indian, To one Negro girle 12 months old, To 2 old Negroes Frank and James; To 3 indifferent feather beds and furniture; To 10 cows, To 2 two yeare old at 12 S., To 5 yearlings, To 20 sheep, To 50 lb. Pewter at 8d., To 1 pair Cart wheels, To 1 iron pott and two pare pott hooks, To Brass kettle, To one Couch, To 12 old chairs, To one old Mare, To one old horse, Total 98...07...04." [This would be in pounds, shillings, and pence.]
The documents continues:
"Know All Men by these presents that I Lt. Coll: Cadwalader Jones (JO-1) have bargained sold and delivered unto Mr. Robt: Taliaferro (TA-1) his heires and assignes the abovesd goods and chattles with their Encrease wch: said goods and chattles I do warrnt from the claimes of any persons unto the sd Mr. Robt. Taliaferro or his order In witness whereof I have sett my hand this 8th of March 1686/7
Teste John Taliaferro (TA-4) Cadwalader Jones (JO-1)
Jno. Battaile (BAT-1)
More to come. Please note that the Robert Taliaferro (TA-1) recorded here is the son of Robert Taliaferro (TA-2) that has been recorded in previous post.
