From: Russell County Fugates
Josias Fugate is the earliest confirmed Fugate. He resided in the
Northern Neck of Virginia in the Brunswick Parish of King George
County. (History of King George County) In Josias's will dated 18
March, 1757, he mentions his sons Francis, John, Josias, Randolph,
Martin and daughter Ann Swillavant, as well as his wife Mary. Mary
has by tradition been assumed to be Mary Martin. It is probable that his sons John, Josias, Randolph, and Martin, had moved elsewhere to settle. Randolph is known to have been in Orange County, Virginia, by 1738. Abt 1717 when Josias was 29, he married Mary MARTIN [1], in King George County, Maryland. [2]
They had the following children:
2 i. John, M (~1724-1786)
3 ii. Francis, M (~1711-1791)
4 iii. Randolph, M (>1715->1778)
5 iv. Josias, M (1720-)
6 v. Anne, F (1728-)
7 vi. Martin, M (~1730-
