June 24, 1758- Ezekiel Potts marries Elizabeth Worrall Mead in Fairfax County, Virginia. The marriage was accomplished contrary to Friends discipline, and in consequence, they were disowned on October 28, 1758.
By the will of his father, David Potts, Ezekial inherited an undivided half interest in the homestead farm and mill.
Ezekial Potts later served as a private in the Revolutionary War, Captain Burgess Ball's 5th Virginia Regiment. (D.A.R. RECORDS 12804 AND 127512.)
(Ezekiel Potts is my 5th great grand uncle. Our common ancestors are David Potts and Ann Roberts.)
