Notes - Birth
Elizabeth (Martiau) Reade, wife of George, left her daughter, Mildred Warner, a ring in her will. The date of Mildred's birth is unknown, but probably about 1643.
The date 2 Oct 1643 is supported by several online indexes (ie. Family Data Collection, The Millennium File), but without evidence. Many of these list Mildred's birth at Warner Hall in Gloucester County, Virginia, but Warner Hall was the home of her husband, Augustine Warner. Elizabeth and George Reade lived in Williamsburg, Virginia, at the time of Mildred's birth.
Marriage
She married, about 1671, to Augustine Warner of Warner Hall.
Mildred and Augustine first lived in the same vicinity, Chesake, Gloucester County, Virginia, on the Pianketunk River. Here their daughter Elizabeth was born in 1672.[1]After the death of Augustine's father, also Augustine, they inherited the Plantation and Warner Hall. Here they raised six known children. After the death of her husband, Mildred continued as mistress of Warner Hall during here widowhood of thirteen years.
A large quantity of arms and ammunition, had been left at Warner Hall, probably from the period of Bacon's Rebellion. In 1684, the Virginia Burgesses asked the governor to appropriate these arms for public use. Col. Bacon (the rebel's uncle) and Maj. Lawrence Smith also had stockpiles in their possessions.
Alternative Marriage date of 1665 at Warner Hall, Virginia
Death and Legacy
Mildred did leave a will, dated 4 Jan 1694.
Mildred's husband has a marked tomb in the family cemetery at Warner Hall, and Mildred's body undoubtedly rests there also. Time has left no stone to give us her birth and death dates. A new stone has been carved and placed on the likely grave of Mildred. While Find-A-Grave reports a date of death of 20 October 1686, there are no dates on this stone indicating that there are no accepted vital dates for Mildred.
Mildred was the 8-Great grandmother of Queens Elisabeth II through her daughter Mary (married John Smith) to the Bowes-Lyons family. She is also the great grandmother of President George Washington as her daughter Millicent married Lawrence Washington.[5]
