The Indian name for the Eastern Shore was Accawmacke..."across the water
place". The shire of Accomack was created in 1634 and covered the entire
Eastern Shore. The name was changed to Northampton in 1642 in an attempt
to Anglicize the names of the shires. By 1663, the population had grown
to the point of dividing the shire into two parts, the northern half
became Accomack County. The county was abolished for a time in 1670 as
Gov.William Berkeley wanted to arrest Col. Edmund Scarburgh for the
murders of some native chiefs. This was one of the incidents which led to
Bacon's Rebellion in 1676. Scarburgh claimed immunity from prosecution as
members of the General Assembly (a Burgess) was immune to arrest. In
order to circumvent this immunity, Berkeley declared the county formation
to be nullified. When Scarburgh died the county was re-created in 1671.
It was not until 1940 that the county received the k at the end of its
name to become Accomack County.
COLONEL EDMUND SCARBOROUGH, was of Northampton County, and for many years
one of the most useful men in Virginia. He was Burgess 1642 to 1671, the
year of his death; Surveyor-General of the colony from 1655 to 1671, and
Speaker of the House, 1645; High Sheriff 1660 to 1661, and frequently
Justice. He gave to Hungars Church one thousand acres of land. This
church, the third erected in Northampton County, was built in 1680, of
brick made and burnt just behind the church, where are still the remains
of the old kiln.
He married Mary, the daughter of STEPHEN CHARLTON, who was a member of
the House of Burgesses 1644, 1645, and 1647, and they had several
children, among them Matilda, who married JOHN WEST I., and Tabitha, who
married first, William Smart, and third, JOHN CUSTIS II.
