Some histories say Charles Morehead was born in 1609, son of David Morehead of London, and immigrated to VA in 1630 to manage his father's interest in the Kent Island project. If so, then he would more probably be the grandfather of John Morehead, rather than the father. John, a minor, was named the son of Charles Morehead, deceased in Charles' 1705/06 will in Northumberland Co., VA. Believed to have married 1st Jane Presley and 2nd Sarah Nelms Sarah was his widow. Charles had 8 children. From HUMSTON GLEANINGS: Jane Presley born 29 Jan 1652, parents Peter and Winifred Presley. Married Charles Morehead, had son, John.
