    -------
    Col. John Catlett, Jr. was known as the 2nd John.

    His will was probated in Essex County on 18-Nov-1724.

    John married first, a Miss Smith. Some researchers believe that she was a daughter of Maj. Lawwrence Smith since deeds recorded in Spotsylvania Co., VA, to Jno Catlett, Jr. and Richard Buckner, in 1722, from Augustine Smith, the son of Major Lawrence Smith. The Catletts owned a large estate at the mouth of Golden Vale Creek in present Caroline County, VA.

    John and his first wife were the parents of:

    1. Lawrence Catlett
    2. Elizabeth Catlett, who married Rowland Thornton

    John Catlett married second, Elizabeth Gaines. [Charles Hughes Hamlin, Professional Genealogist, who worked in conjunction with David A. Avant, Jr. could not find evidence to prove that Col. John Catlett, Jr. married Elizabeth Gaines--nor any information about her parentage. Their marriage is widely accepted by many writers and genealogists of the family. In 1706 Mary Catlett released her dower when her husband, John, sold lands ....SO her name could have been MARY--not ELIZABETH. No original documents are available to prove the name "Elizabeth."]

    Col. John Catlett,Jr. and his second wife were the parents of:

    1. John Catlett, III. who married Elizabeth Taliaferro (daughter of John "The Ranger" Taliaferro and Sarah Smith

    2. Maj. Thomas Catlett who married Martha Thornton.

    3. Mary Catlett who married Lt. Col. John Taliaferro, Jr.

    4. Rebecca Catlett who married first Francis Conway and second John Moore, Gent.

    5. Margaret Catlett who married Jonathan Gibson, Jr.

    Col. John Catlett, Jr. was a

    Notes:

    The main article identifying Lawrence Smith's ancestry is "The Townleys and Warners of Virginia and Their English Connections" by Mary Burton Derrickson McCurdy in The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography.

    The book "Early Virginia Immigrants" lists Lawrence Smith arriving from England in 1652. "Imported" by Capt. Augustine Warner who was married to Mary Townley, sister of Elizabeth Townley, Lawrence's mother. They were daughters of Lawrence Townley, the grandfather of Lawrence Smith. Lawrence Towneley is also the direct ancestor of both George Washington and Robert E. Lee through Mary Townley, wife of Augustine Washington.

    ===========
    According to "Bacon's Rebellion - 1676" by Thomas J. Wertenbaker, Clearfield Co., Inc. & reprinted by Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc. Baltimore, MD, 1993, 1994, 1998, pg. 48, Lawrence was a resident of Gloucester county, Virginia, and in March, 1675-1676, he commanded a fort at the head of Rappahannock river. In Bacon's rebellion he sided with Governor Berkeley, and after Bacon's death led the Gloucester "trained hands" against Ingram, but they deserted him. He was surveyor for the counties of Gloucester and York in 1686, and in 1691 laid out Yorktown. In 1699 the governor recommended him as suitable for appointment to the council. He died in 1700. From his coat-of-arms Major Smith appears to have belonged to the Smiths of Totne, County Devon, England. He was father of Colonel John Smith, of the Virginia council.
