Notes for Robert Hallom
Following from Kay Haden:1669

“Robert Hallom came from Burnham, County Essex, England to Virginia, Aug 1620 in the "Francis Bonaventure" [the same ship Ann Price came on]. He was living at Neck of Land in Charles City in the Muster as were John and Ann Price. Luke Boyse claimed him as a headright and he was listed as his servant.

“Robert had three brothers still living in England. John who lived in London, a poulterer, William of Burnham, County Essex who was a salter; and Thomas who died in 1644 and whose widow married (2) William Mason. Thomas Hallom, Jr, son of Thomas came to Virginia about 1655 bringing power of attorney from the England Halloms. He gave Daniel Llewellyn receipt in full in 1657.

“A patent to Matthew Price referred to land granted to his late father John Price and now in possession of his mother Ann Hallom.

“Ann had at least three Hallom children: Ann, Sarah, and Robert Jr.”
Notes for Ann (Spouse 1)
Following from the essay by Rev. B. L. Price:1668

“The second wife of John Price was named Ann Matthewes, and as there was a Samuel Matthewes in Jamestown about that time, I see no reason to doubt. Another son of John Price was Matthewes, who had three sons. John Price, after his second marriage, moved and settled in Henrico County, Virginia.” (Manuscript written by Mrs. Eva Grand Maloney, Craig City Virginia)

“Ann Matthewes, a young girl of about seventeen winters, came over in the ship Francis Bonaventure in August, 1620. (There seems to be some reason for doubting that she was the daughter of Capt. Samuel Matthewes since the authorities agree that she arrived on the Bonaventure during 1620, while Hotten’s List gives the date of Capt. Samuel Matthewes as 1622.) John could not resist her gracious manner, her sterling qualities and womanly character, so soon found himself pledging his heart and hand, which were accepted by the young girl of tender years, and in 1624 in the Muster of Charles City we find John Price, aged 40, and Ann, his wife, aged 31, with Mary, their daughter, aged 3 months.”

Followiing from the work of Kay Haden:1669

“Ann came in the "Bon Aventure" in 1620; she gave her age as 21 when Capt John Harvey took his account of the citizens of the Colony of Virginia in 1624/25, commonly referred to as "The Muster".

“There have been claims that Ann's surname was Matthews and she was the daughter of Samuel Matthews, however, the records show that Samuel Matthews did not arrive in Virginia until 1622.

“Ann married Robert Hallom after the death of John Price. On 6 May 1638, a patent was issued to Ann Hallom, widow, and the heirs of Robert Hallom, dec'd for 1000 acres in Henrico. Northeast by the woods, southwest by the river, northwest by Bremo & land of Mr. Richard Cocke, & southeast toward Turkey Island Creek adj land of John Price. This would later become William Randolph's plantation known as Turkey Island.”
