Name Suffix: Captain
He was named for his great-uncle, Augustine Warner.
According to the Article entitled "Thomas Smith of Fairfax County, Virginia," by Henry G. Taliaferro, in Volume 40, Number 1 (January-March, 1996) of The Virginia Genealogist: This Augustine Smith is sometimes confused with his distant kinsman, Augustine Smith of "Purton," Gloucester Co, who married Sarah Carver, 9 Feb 1711. The Augustine of "Purton" was the son of John and Mary (Warner) Smith, grandson of Augustine, Jr and Mildred (Reade) Warner, and great-grandson of Augustine, Sr and Mary (Towneley) Warner.
Augustine Smith was the son of Lawrence Smith per page 54 of "Colonial Caroline: A History of Caroline County, Virginia, " (1954) by T. E Campbell. Augustine commanded the first garrison at Fredericksburg, and had been public surveyor for St Mary's Parish, whose people did not like him. However, the Williamsburg authorities made him surveyor of both Spotsylvania and Essex Counties when when the upper end of St Mary's Parish was split. The feud grew greater through the years as planters tried many tactics to get rid of him. A new county (Caroline) seemed a plausible way.
Spotsylvania County, Virginia DB A (1722-1729) dated 4 Feb 1728, from John Waller and John Taliaferro as Trustees of the town of Fredericksburg in Spots Co. to Augustine Smith of Caroline County, Virginia., conveyed lots 30 an 32 in said town. Augustine was the first to purchase a lot, per "History of Fredericksburg Virginia," (1937), by Alvin T. Embry.
Spots Co DB B (1729-1734) dated Novr. 2, 1731. Augustine Smith of Spts. County, Gent., to his eldest son, Thomas Smith, of the same County, Gent. 250 ster. and for sd. Thos. advancement in life, 400 a. in Spts. whereon sd. Thos. now dwells and for some time past has dwelt, etc. M. Battaley, J. Mercer. Novr. 2, 1731.
[Note: Spots. Co DB E (1751-1761) dated 17 Jun 1752 a Deed of Gift from Lawrence Washington, to his brother George of King Geo. County, Gent., conveyed his interest acquired as heir of the late Augustine Washington, deceased, in Lots 33, 34 and 40 in the town of Fredericksburg].

From page 98 of Genealogical and Historical Notes on Culpeper County, Virginia, Embracing a Revised and Enlarged Edition of Dr. Philip Slaughter's History of St. Mark's Parish, compiled by Raleigh Travers Green (1958), Baltimore Southern Book Company:
"St. Mark's, p. 85--Slaughter Family--The first Robert Slaughter of Culpeper m. Mary Smith, daughter of Augustine Smith, of Culpeper, an early land surveyor, who lived on the Rappahannock river. His will is on record in the first Vol. of Will records of Orange county. Augustine Smith was of the Horseshoe Expedition of Gov. Spotswood (see http://cal.jmu.edu/sherwork/Writings/History/1716.htm), as was also another surveyor, Col. James Taylor. Augustine Smith was the son of Col. Lawrence Smith, of Gloucester county, and York Town. Col. Smith for years was commandant of the fort at Falmouth, Virginia. The House of Burgesses also gave him civil jurisdiction over a section around the fort, an unusual mark of confidence, and donated to him a tract of land on the Rappahannock, three and a half miles wide by five miles long. He was once defeated in battle by Bacon, his troops deserting him. Altogether he was one of the most distinguished Virginians of his day. He (Col Lawrence) laid out York Town."
From page 98 of "The Armistead Family 1635-1910," (1910), by Virginia Armistead Garber:
"Augustine Smith (son of Major Lawrence Smith, great-uncle of Thomas Smith, of York,) was one of the Knights of the Golden Horseshoe. He married Susanna Darnell; had a son Thomas, a son John, and daughter Mary, who married Robert Slaughter. His will proved in Orange County; lived in St. Mary's Parish, Essex County." Augustine was one of the original Trustees for the town of Fredericksburg in 1727.
From page 97 of "The Armistead Family 1635-1910," in 1722 he qualified as one of the first justices for Spotsylvania County, and his will was proved in Orange County, Virginia., 20 Jul 1736, and names issue, Thomas, of Prince Wm. County, and Mary, wife of Robert Slaughter.

Note:
1704 Essex Co, Virginia. He and brothers, Honor and Thomas, were listed on the Quit Rent Rolls, each having 72 acres.
8/10/1705 Essex Co, Virginia. Place put the following on record at the court house:
"Know all men that I Place Powell of Essex Co and Parish of St Anne's do for several threatenings of Mary Powell my wife that she will make away with what I have a-purpose for to ruine me, I do, therefore, forwarne all manner of persons from having any manner of dealing with her and from taking anything of her or entertaining her without my consent." Place signed with an "X". A footnote says she may have been a "she-devil", probably as a result of loneliness.
1/11/1710 St Ann's Parish was still his residence when he leased 300 acres to Augustine SMITH for 99 years, the land was in St Maries, Richmond Co. "whereon George and William Proctor now liveth in the freshes of Rappahannock River in the forks of Lamb's Creek, being the land granted unto Francis PLACE by patent Sept. 1654, relation being had to the records, and now doth of right belong to the said Place Powell, partly to these presents." Witnesses were: John Golding, Cassandra Golding and John Wood. It was not recorded until 1/13/1714, after the next event.
6/3/1713 The previous entry concerned land that Place's parents had sold some 40 years prior and the question arose about the validity of the contract. The matter went to court and the jury's verdict was:
"Francis Place took up the land in question, 300 acres in Sept. 1654; on Aug 11, 1655, he made a deed in tail to his daughter, Mary, and she was thereafter in possession of the land. Mary married Thos. Powell and said Place is their eldest son. Mary died about 3 years ago the middle of December last. On Sept. 30, 1666, Thomas and Mary deed the land to James COGHILL, who, on Oct 11, 1667 deeded it to William Wilton. He took out a new patent for the land on Oct. 3, 1671. 'Wee do not find any patent of the sd land granted to the sd ffrancis Place before that dated in 1654 before cited. Wee find that the sd ffrancis Place was dead long before the date of Wilton's patent. Wee find the said Mary Powell lived a widow' nine or ten years before she died."
There was one final entry concerning Place and this same 300 acres:
9/7/1750 King George Co. "Honorias Powell, of St. Mary's Parish, Caroline Co, as brother and heir apparent to Place Powell, who has removed himself to some remote place out of Virginia, conveys to John CHAMPE, Gent, the land patented Sept, 1654, by Francis Place and leased Nov. 11, 1710 by said Place Powell to Augustine SMITH, Gent, which lease is of record in Essex Co."
It appears that Place left Essex Co but no one knew his whereabouts and so assumed him dead (in 1715) with his property passing to brother, Honorias.
John Golding gave bond as administrator of Place's estate but apparently there was a problem because in July 1716, Augustine SMITH posted 50 pounds bond to administer the estate, "he dying without a will." Inventory and appraisment of Place's estate was recorded in 1717.
Mary (POWELL).Mary married Place POWELL before 1705 in Essex Co, Virginia, St Anne Parish.
