      From the book:
      Albemarle County in Virginia
      By Edgar Woods
      Published by the Michie Company, Printers, Charlottesville, Va., 1901
      Preface to book written July 1st, 1900.

      One of the early land owners in the northeast part of the county was Samuel Brockman. He died in 1779, leaving two sons, Samuel and Wlliam, and probably a third named Jason.

      William was apparently prosperous in his affairs. He lived on Priddy's Creek, owned a considerable quantity of land, and had one of the first mills erected in that section. He died in 1809. A Baptist church, the precursor of the present (1900) Priddy's Creek Church, was on his land, and he devised it to the congregation using it as a place of worship.

      His children were Frances, the wife of a Taylor, Elizabeth, John, Margaret, the wife of a Henderson, Thomas, William, Ambrose, Samuel, and Catharine, the wife of a Bell.

      Ambrose married Nancy, daughter of Captain william Simms, and became a Baptist preacher. Samuel married Ann Simms, a sister of Ambrose's wife, and his son Samuel, who died in 1847, was the father of Richard Simms, Bluford, Tandy, Simpson, Tazewell, and Agatha, the wife of Thomas Edwards. Richard Simms married Martha, the daughter of Wiley Dickerson, and removed to Amherst. Among his children were Fontaine D., Harriet, the wife of William Jeffries, Tandy, and Willis allen, who removed to Atlanta Georgia.

      In the early part of the century many of this name emigrated to Kentucky, a Tandy Brockman going to Christian County and Elizabeth, a widow, witha a large family of children, to Boone.
