Anthony Haynie born 1654 Va, died 21 Jun 1710 sain Stephens, Northumberland, VA.
Elizabeth Haynie born 1660 Northumberland County, VA, died 1771 Richmond, Wise, VA.

Most Haynie researchers agree that the Haynie family can be formally traced to Capt. John Haynie and, some believe that Capt. John was the progenitor of the Haynie Family in America. However, there is evidence that supports the belief that the Haynie family was established in America by John Hayney who was born in England in about 1594. John Hayney came to the American Colonies on the ship "Margett and John" in 1621.1 He gave his age as 27 which would place his birth date about 1594. He appears in the referenced Index again with a date of 1624, age 272 and is first mentioned in Virginia land records in 1632:3


William Hampton, Planter, 50 A. At Buck Doe within the precincts of Elizabeth Citty, 12 March 1632. Abuting on a Cr. Parting same from land of James Bonal, Frenchman, Sly. towards the land of John Hayney, Planter, and Ely, upon Cr. Parting same from Point Comfort Island. Which 50 A. Was leased by Francis West 10 Dec. 1627.

John Hayney married Elizabeth Hayney who was born about 1581 and came to the Virginia colony on the ship "Abigail" in 1622; the ship record did not give her age. However, in a Northumberland County Court in April 1635, Elizabeth proved her age to be 54 which would make her some 13 years older than her husband.4 John and Elizabeth were probably married soon after her arrival in Virginia, or about 1622-23. This would allow for the birth of a son, also named John, in about 1624 which is believed to be Capt. John Haynie. A search of the records at the Virginia State Library found very few records covering the period 1621- 1650 and no record was found of the marriage of John Hayney or the birth of Capt. John Haynie.

Some Haynie researchers believe that Capt. John Haynie was born in England5 and that he came to America in about 1650 and, there are two references that are consistently used to support this belief. The first is in the Index of Immigrants and Naturalizations.6 Some believe that this reference proves that John Haynie immigrated to America in 1650, when actually the reference states that "he was an original grantee for 950 acres on 20 January 1650." The second reference used is in a 1991 Supplement to the same Index, which makes reference to a John Haynie as "a founder of a colonial family living in Virginia in 1650." 7 Neither reference gives a date of immigration, or the name of a ship, or a port of arrival.

In July of 1993, the records at the Virginia State Library in Richmond were searched for early records on Capt. John Haynie. The earliest record found was when Capt. John Haynie and others signed an oath of allegiance to the Commonwealth of England on 13 April 1652.8 This record also leads many to believe that Capt. John Haynie and the other signers of the oath had just arrived in the colonies, however, this is not proof. Research shows that this was a troubling time for England because she was without "King or House of Lords" and was primarily interested in ensuring the loyalty of the colonists. As an example, take the case of Nicholas Morris who also signed the oath to the Commonwealth of England on 13 April 1652. The evidence indicates that the Nicholas Morris family moved to Northumberland County, Virginia from Maryland in about 1650. 9 The Nicholas Morris family was another prominent Virginia family and a large land owner. The Morris and Haynie families are connected through the marriage of Jane Morris, daughter of Nicholas, to Capt. John Haynie.

After considering all of the available records, it is believed that Capt. John Haynie was actually born in Virginia, and that his father was John Hayney who immigrated to Virginia in 1621.

  1. I understand your pain. My 5th Great-Grandfather was John Haynes (1733, Charlotte County Virginia) and all the history I have points toward him being the Governor, but it's not the same John Haynes. Unfortunately, its hard to find any other John Haynes (any spelling). If you think you have something feel free to let me know virginia.currin@gmail.com is my email I use for geneology. Thanks!
