WILLIAM TAPTICO I
was born abt 1664 in Northumberland County VA and died abt
1696 in Northumberland County VA. He married ELINDER JONES abt 1689 in
Northumberland
County VA. Elinder was born August 12, 1674 in Virginia and died
abt September 1719
in Northumberland County VA.
NOTES:
According to the book "Tapp Family of America" William Taptico (Tapp) I married Elinder
Jones, however did not reference the source material.In the document,"William Takes Bond"
William II mentions his father William I and his mother Elinder and William Junr., himself.
This, however is not sufficient proof that William Taptico I married Elinder Jones. Keep
in mind that William I(s) wife was named Elinder, but not verifiable that her maiden
name was Jones. But to keep the research moving, this is an assumption concerning
the maiden name of Elinder. The fact is, Taptico is Indian, and verifiable.

WILLIAM TAPTICO II (WILLIAM I) was born abt 1690 in Northumberland County VA and died abt 1719 in Northumberland County VA. He married ELIZABETH BERRICK abt 1706 in Richmond County VA, daughter of DAVID BERRICK and CHARITY EALE.She was born January 1689/90 in Richmond County VA and died abt 1724 in Spottsylvania County VA.
NOTES:
Again the "Tapp Family of America" makes a statement, but does not give the reference
material. We do know that William Taptico II has a wife by the name of Elizabeth,
based on the estate documents and Taptico's estate inventory, which she signed. But we
can not verifiy at this time if her maiden name was Berrick.
When Taptico II died in 1719, his wife Elizabeth settled his estate and begin the process by signing documents, Elizabeth Taptico, when she finished the process of settling his estate, she was signing the documents, Tapp. It appears during this period the name change from Taptico to Tapp took place.

In her will she leaves all her property to her three children, William III, Charity, and Vincent.
