James was a justice of the peace of Essex County, Virginia and a signer of the Association of the Northern Neck in opposition to the Stamp Act, February 27, 1766. He appears to have had an interest in several grist mills on Piscataway Creek, near Tappahannock, Essex County, Virginia. James began construction of a home called "Mount Prospect" on a hill overlooking Piscataway Creek. This place was about "100 yards from the road leading from Tappahannock to Urbanna in Middlesex County, five miles from the former place, about one fourth of a mile from Piscataway Creek, and three miles from Rappahannock River, with a beautiful view of the winding of the Creek to where it entered the river with a view of the river for five miles. Yet with all its beauty it was considerd very sickly. Several of the family members are buried in the family cemetery which is on the place".

356. John WEBB (Isaac, Giles, John William, Giles, Richard, William Micajah, Alexander, Alexander, Henry Alexander, John Alexander, John Alexander, William, John, Geoffrey, Henry) was born on Feb 1 1737 in North Farnham Parish, Richmond County, Virginia. He died in 1798 in Washington County, Georgia.

They had the following children:

+ 427 M i Samuel WEBB Sr
428 M ii William WEBB

430 M iv Giles WEBB was born in 1770. He died in 1833.
+ 431 M v Levi WEBB
432 F vi Elizabeth WEBB
433 F vii Priscilla WEBB

366. Charles WEBB (Isaac, Giles, John William, Giles, Richard, William Micajah, Alexander, Alexander, Henry Alexander, John Alexander, John Alexander, William, John, Geoffrey, Henry) was born on Apr 27 1756 in Richmond County, Virginia. He died before 1830 in Washington County, Georgia.

We believe that Charles WEBB, b. 27 Apr 1756 in Richmond, Virginia, is the father of John WEBB, great grandfather of James Robert WEBB, Sr. There is no recorded proof of this, but we have come to this conclusion through a process of elimination. Our John WEBB was born in Washington County Georgia in 1797, according to the 1850 and 1860 census records. The Washington County Georgia courthouse burned twice - once in 1855 and once in 1864 during the Civil War. This means that many records were forever lost. In 1995, we traveled to the county to view the remaining records. We also visited with Mrs. Wiles of the Washington County Historical Society, and we studied material at the Sandersville library. There is a family of WEBBs who moved to Washington County, Georgia. They are descendants of the WEBB family from England and they descend from William WEBB who came, along with his four brothers, to America about 1629. Marriage and birth records of this family survive down to Isaac WEBB and his wife, Frances Barber WEBB, and show that Isaac had a son, Charles WEBB, born 27 April 1756. Some of the sons of Isaac, including John and Giles, came to Washington County, Georgia. Several documents for John and Giles remain to show this. We find that our John WEBB was not a child of either John or Giles WEBB. In the 1820 Washington County census there is a Charles WEBB listed. He is probably the male in the household who is listed in the "45 and over" age category. In his household is one male listed as age "16-26". Our John WEBB would have been 23 years old at that time and not married, yet. By 1830, our John WEBB had married his first wife, Sarah, and we find him in Washington County's 1830 census with a female age "20-30" (this would fit Sarah, born about 1807) and a male age "30-40" (John would have been 33). There is no Charles WEBB in this 1830 census. Charles, born 1756, would have been 74 years old by then and most probably was deceased. John WEBB had two sons that we know of by his first wife...Enoch and James Ross. Both of them married but only James had any children. James named his first son, Charles. And the name Charles continues in the descendants of that family. We have searched census and other records to find the ancestry of John WEBB. We found nothing to indicate there is any other father than this Charles WEBB. Likewise, there is not another family for this Charles WEBB to negate his being John's father. Therefore, from our research and work, we believe that Charles WEBB, son of Isaac WEBB, grandson of Giles WEBB and Elizabeth Spann WEBB, is the father of John WEBB, ancestor of James Robert WEBB, Sr.
