Joseph Dictum7
Descendants of Archibald Gant & Ancestors of Rebecca Kinkead
William Cooper Weaks 1944
Son of Richard Tictum (Dictum) and his wife Rosa or Rosemond___, of Augusta County, Virginia. Date of birth and death have not been determined. Named in his father’s will filed in Augusta County, Virginia, Will Book 1, Page 252, dated July 2, 1750, and bond for his mother Rosemond as administrator of Richard Tictum Estate is filed in Will Book 1, Page 287. This bond is signed by Daniel Love but it is not known whether he was a relative or only a friend of the family at that time.
Though no record is found of her will, evidently Rosemond Tictum died sometime before Nov. 21, 1754, for on that date will book 2, page 80, shows Daniel Love was appointed Guardian for Joseph Dictum "an orphan of Richard Dictum".
Have not found record or date of his marriage to Rachell Love, Daughter of Daniel and Jean (Adams) Love, but this was prior to Nov. 16, 1763, when Augusta county, Va., deed book 11, page 470 shows sale of 160 a "on north branch shannawdore, near the clover lick" from Joseph Dictum and Rachell (his wife) to Conrad Custard. This is part of Land inherited from his father Richard Dictum.
On March 20, 1764 Joseph Dictum purchased from Daniel and Jean (Adams) Love for L115, 255 Acres on Coons creek, deed book 11, page 524.
On August 19, 1765, Joseph Dictum and Rachell (Love) Dictum (his wife) sold to James Marshall 100 acres "on no. River shanadoe, mouth of beaver run". Deed book 12, page 66. (This is land patented to Richard Tictum June 25, 1747).
On March 15, 1770 (will book 4, page 301) entry shows Joseph Dictum qualified as executor of estate of Margaret Adams. The widow of John Adams and Grandmother of his wife. (see her will).
On May 15, 1770 (deed book 16, page 315) Samuel Adams of North Carolina gave to Joseph Dictum power of attorney to convey 340 a. on linvels creek, (this is land devised by Margaret Adams and patented in the name of Mary (? Or Marg) Adams).
"A history of Rockingham county, Va." By John W. Wayland shows page 55. "From a day book used from 1774 to 1777 by Felix Gilbert who lived or kept a store at or near a place since known as Peale’s cross roads, five miles or so southeast of Harrisonburg.
1775 – Joseph Dictum gave 2 Bu. Wheat for relief of Bostonians.
of this entry and the reasons for the donation we quote from "Annals of Augusta county, Virginia" by Waddell, page 2225
"While the strife between the colonies and mother country was brewing in 1774 the port of Boston was closed by the British and the people of that city, mainly dependent upon commerce for subsistance, were reduced to a state of destitution and suffering, the sympathy of the country was aroused, and contributions for their relief were made in various places. The remote county of Augusta sent her quota the very autumn her sons fought the Indians at Point Pleasant. Says the historian, Bancroft: "when the sheaves had been harvested and the corn threshed and ground in, a county as yet poorly provided with barns and mills, the backwoodsmen of Augusta County, without any pass through the mountains that could be called a road, noiselessly and modestly delivered at Frederick one hundred and thirty-seven barrels of flour as their remittance to the poor of Boston". (VII, Page 74). What a task the transportation was, may be inferred from the fact that nearly fifty years afterwards Bookett’s stages took three days to make the trip from Staunton to Winchester."
Joseph Dictum’s service during the Revolutionary War is shown by the following:
"American Archives" 5th series (by force) Vol. 2, p. 322. "A list of Captains and subaltern officers in the Virginia service, dayes of commissions &c.," Eighth regiment shows Joseph Dickdomas 1st Lieut. In company of David Stephenson, with John Gratton, 2nd Lieut. and Samuel Coleman, Ensign, all promoted with commissions dated March 25, 1776.
We must remember Rockingham County was formed from a part of Augusta County in October 1777 and further records of Joseph Dictum and his family are found in the new county of Rockingham.
