Henry Southey with his wife, six children and ten servants came to Virginia in 1622 in the ship Southampton. In Jan 1621/2, it states "that one Mr. Henry Southey, a Somersetshire gentleman, did desire a patent for a particular Plantation in Virginia, to him and his associates undertaking to transport one hundred persons thither. The Council for Virginia in London promptly authorized his patent; his arrival in Virginia was noted by the Council and he was assigned at once 900 acres of land to be taken up in any place not already chosen."
