William Kendall's wife's lineage Jemima Kirk Stafford County Virginia Randolph Kirk (e) was born before 1630 probably in Virginia or England and died after 1681 probably in Westmoreland County, Virginia. Sarah (widow) of Randolph was involved in Bacon's rebellion.
"Randolph Kirk, patented 1,000 acres south of the present Neenah, and east of Nomini Grove, part joined by Thomas Beale, and was several times repatented and corrected. Beale and Kirk patent dated September 25, 1664.
Beale died, or transferred his interest, for Randolph Kirk patented in his own right 1,000 acres, March 22, 1665. The out-boundaries are rather vague. The widow of Randolph Kirk was allowed 678 pounds of tobacco for carrying messages during Bacon's rebellion, the account being allowed November 10, 1682." .. "254 acres Randall Kirk Sept 16, 1651, Randall Kirk patented 254 acres of land between the two branches of Currioman Creek."

Sarah was married twice prior to Randolph Kirke and once after Randolph Kirk. "Hindmasse, Thomas (or Hindmast) & Burt, (Sarah) (wid.); before 25 Jul 1677; bride was the rel.of Jn. Burt; she mar. (3) Randal Kirk & (4) Nicholas Silvester: (WC OB 1675/6-1688/9"79)" Page 180 .. Kirk, Randolph (or Randall) & Hindmasse, Sarah (Wid.) bef. 16 May 1677; Randolph Kirk had been prev. mar. to Amy (lnu) who must have died after 30 Jun 1675; bride was the wid. of (1) Burt and (2) Thomas Hindmasse; she married (4) Nicholas Silvester;
(WC OB 1675/6-1688/9;65.87)" page 229 Source: Married Well and Often Marriages of the Northern Neck of Virginia 1649-1800 by Robert K. Headley, Jr.
Randolph Kirk had also patented 1500 acres (also located in Westmoreland County, Va in 1668/9 with Colonel Thomas Beale for transporting 30 indurtured servants.
Randolph gave to Henry Kirk a gift on 30 April 1673 of land (100+ acres) in Westmoreland County, Virginia. Sarah married after Randolph Kirk to Nicholas Silvester. Nicholas Silvester (according to court documents) abused Sarah and then he relocated to Maryland after her death.
