      From "Virginia's Eastern Shore"
      Accomack County
      The earliest record about her [ANN TOFT] is a patent to her for 800 acres granted November 3, 1660. In making a deposition three years later, she stated that she then was "Aged twenty yeares," so she would have been seventeen at the time of the above patent. She received later patents, in Maryland and Jamaica, as well as in Virginia, but not until March, 1669, did she list herself as one of the head rights necessary for a certificate. In FEBRUARY, 1666, "Ann Toft" was listed as a head right in a patent to Major Thomas Walker for 2,350 acres in Gloucester County, and in March of this year, an "An Toft" was listed in a patent to WILLIAM BASELY AND EDWARD HAELLY for ?,000 acres to Westmoreland County. The fact that these patents were not granted until long after her own does not preclude the possibility that the person named was the Eastern Shore Ann Toft, as head rights often were used some years after their dates of entry.
