Some researchers believe that Anthony West's parents were Thomas West and Elizabeth Sankey of Buckingham, England. In order to confirm this connection, I wrote to Thomas Woodcock of the College of Arms, London England and asked him research their medival records to verify that connection.
On March 14, 1997, Mr. Woodcock sent this reply.
"I must say at once that there is a mistaken identity in your list of ancestors. Anthony West who emigrated to Virginia in 1622 and who is mentioned in the enclosed photocopy from "Adventurers of Purse and Persons, Virginia 1607-1625" was not Anthony son of Thomas West and Elizabeth Sankey. The reason for this is that Anthony West, the son of Thomas West and Elizabeth Sankey, appears on a pedigree recorded at the Heralds' Visitation of Buckinghamshire in 1566 by his younger brother Nicholas West of Masworth described as One of the six Clerks of the Chancery. Nicholas West was then married with five children and he is presumably the Nicholas West of Masworth whose will was proved in the Prerogative Court of Cantebury (the principal probate Court in the country) in 1586. Anthony West, son of Thomas West and Elizabeth Sankey, was an adult in 1566.
From the "Adventurers of Purse & Persons" published by the Dietz Press, INC., pages 661 & 662.
ANTHONY WEST came to Virginia in the James, 1622, and in the census, 1623/24 is listed at James City, where he was living at "Mr. Treasuror's Plantation," across the river from Jamestown, 1624/5. At a court held at James City, Dec. 1625, Henry Menefre, merchant, testified that "Mes. Rowlsey did sett Anthony west free and delivered his Indentures to Capt. Sampson to cary into England to his freends."
Futhermore, at the same court, "Anthony West sworne and examined sayeth that he made an agreement with Zacharie Crips and Edmund White, to have fyteen hundred plants and after, he intendinge to goe for England, he quitted that agreement, and after proposinge to staye about planting tyme Zacharie Crips promised to give the said deponent Content for his labor, and so he stayed and Contynued to work with him till the crop was in.
On Jan. 1625/26 he testified at a James City court concerning the quality of some tobacco. He is mentioned in Virginia records between 28 Feb. 1627 and 14 April 1628 as having shipped 1380 pounds of tobacco to the port at Darthmouth, England.
Subsequently, West carried out his original intention and returned to England. On March 10 1633/4 " Anthony West of ye p'ish of Stepney in the County of Midd[lesex] Surgeon and a batchelr aged 28 yeares . . . alledgeth that he intendeth to marry wth Anne Huffe of the frsaide p'ish widowe aged 26 yeares the relict of Anthony Huffe." As "Anthony West of Shadwell, chirurgion," he married Anne Huffe, 11 March 1633/4 at St. Dunstans, Stepney.
He may be the Anthony West referred to in a York County order, 1644/5, in which a debt of tobacco, incurred by Hercules Bridges, was due and payable to Anthony West in 1644 within five days. He definitely returned with his family to Virginia by 5 Oct. 1649 when "Anthony West, Ann his wife, John West and Kathe: West" were named as headrights in a patent issued to Capt. Randall Herle, mariner, for 600 acres in Northampton County on the "Great Nusewattock River, from Chingandehee Creeke Mouth unto Arokoko Creeke"
From " Virginia's Eastern Shore":
1649: Patent (land grant) to Randall Herle for 600 acres "upon great Nuswattock River from Chingandehee Creeke Mouth unto Arokoko Creeke." The patent was due to Herle for the transportation of twelve persons to the Colony, among whom were ANTHONY WEST, his wife ANN, his son JOHN, and a daughter Katherine.
Anthony West's will, 12 Oct. 1651 - 25 May 1652, named his wife Ann and children John and katherine. His widow married (3) Capt. Stephen Charlton, who left will 28 Oct. 1654 - 29 Jan. 1654/5. She died after Oct. 1658.
From "Ames, Mears, and Allied Lines," by Lucy Ames Edwards as quoted by Mary Frances Carey in "George R. West, Ancestors and Descendants"
"It has been said that ANTHONY WEST was probably a cousin of the Lords De la Warr, Sir Thomas West, Baron de la Warr, Governor of Virginia Colony in 1610, and John West, Governor 1635-37. Whitelaw in 'Virginia's Eastern Shore' says, there was some relationship between the Lords De la Warr and ANTHONY WEST was proven by the arms on the tombstone of Major Charles West, great grand son of ANTHONY. The tombstone with the West arms was placed in in accordance with instructions in the will of Charles West, Accomack County, 1757, that before there was any division of his estate a tombstone was to be bought in London and placed over his grave. The tomb was placed on a lot in the town of Onancock, Virginia. Many years later the stone was knocked down and broken, placed by a well, eventually plowed over and, later still, dug up. Much of the coat of arms remains on the stone and can be identified as similar to that of Lord De la Warr. The stone has been perserved by the Eastern Shore Virginia Historical Society and can be seen in the museum of the Society at Kerr Place in Onancock, Virginia."
In response to my request, Mr. Thomas Woodcock, of the College of Arms of London, England, researched the De la Warr lineage to try to identify an Anthony West that fit the profile of my ancestor Anthony West. In his response of September 11, 1997, he was able to identify the parish in which Anthony West and Anne Huffe married. That parish is located on the north bank of the River Thames two and a half miles east of the City of London. The church of Stepney is dedicated to St Dunstan and all Saints. The records of that church are currently maintained by the London Metropolitan Archives, beginning in 1568. I have a request pending with them for a search of their births, christenings, marriage and deaths. My hope is that my ancestor Anthony West returned to his place of birth to marry.
Mr Woodcock provided me extensive documentation on the De la Warr line, but nowhere was there an Anthony West that fit the profile of Anthony West who came to Virginia in 1622.
