== The leaves (| | | |) in green denote Jeff's direct line.
== The Bailey's ancient ancestors include Robert de Bruce, once King of Scotland (see also De Ballilol).
== Jamestown, Virginia, founded May 14,1607 under the auspices of the Virginia Company of London, has the distinction of being the birthplace of American slavery and democracy. Among its other "firsts": first capital of colonial Virginia, the first permanent settlement in British North America, first Anglican (Episcopal) church in North America (1607), the first English celebration of Christmas in the New World (1607), the first arrival of Africans (1619), the first distillation of corn whiskey, first cultivation of tobacco as a cash crop, and, the first (1682) printing press in America (the colonial government banned both the press and its printer who fled to Maryland). Named in honor of King James I of England and located on a marshy peninsula (later Jamestown Island) in the James River, initially Jamestown was little more than a hardscrabble palisade fort surrounded by one of the greatest Indian empires on the east coast of America (the Powhatan Confederacy) precariously housing a motley combination of gentlemen, adventurers, servants, and ne'er-do-wells seeking adventure and quick profits from gold, timber, and tobacco. (Women colonists would not arrive for another twelve years.)
== Jamestown was primarily a profit-oriented colony whose distant stockholders in England hoped to reap quick and easy riches from their initial investments. Unfortunately, many colonists preferred to look for gold and silver and arrogantly assumed neighboring Indians would give them food. Despite a surrounding abundance of fowl, game, and fish, many Englishmen died of hunger, dysentery, malaria and yellow fever (no doubt transmitted by the hordes of mosquitoes and flies infesting the area) during the first summer; the winter of 1609-1610 became known as "the Starving Time." Even the dynamic and skilled leadership of council president Captain John Smith (who insisted "He that will not work shall not eate") barely kept the colony alive. Situated in an unhealthful marshy area, the colony always had a small population because of a high mortality rate from disease. Only 12 percent of the original 500 colonists were still alive in 1611; yet the town gained a firmer economic foothold after 1612 thanks to John Rolfe's successful experiments in developing a new type of sweet-scented tobacco (the indigenous plant was too harsh and bitter for European tastes) which quickly became the colony's major exportable cash crop, especially after Sir Walter Raleigh and other London elites began smoking it in pipes. By 1624 Jamestown, which as a town had spread beyond the palisade fort, consisted of nearly 130 colonists, twenty-two houses, three stores, and one church. Despite King James's disapprobation of smoking ("a custom loathsome to the eye, hateful to the nose, harmful to the brain, dangerous to the lungs") and tobacco ("a filthy novelty") it became Virginia's legal tender (1642) as colonists measured their wealth in the number of acres or processed hogsheads of tobacco. Known as "brown gold" by planters and consumers, to this day tobacco remains Virginia's greatest cash crop--a $5 billion industry.
== The Virginia General Assembly, the first representative government on the continent, met from July 30 to August 4, 1619; it remains America's oldest continuous legislature. The year also marked the arrival of the first white women when ninety "younge, handsome and honestly educated maydes," were sent by the Virginia Company as wives for the bachelor colonists. Each husband reimbursed the company in tobacco for his bride's passage. The African arrival in late August 1619 (a year before the Pilgrims' arrival at Plymouth, Massachusetts on the Mayflower) was not accidental. Tobacco required heavy backbreaking labor--labor white men were deemed unable to provide. In April 1619 a Dutch ship and an English ship, Treasurer, ostensibly sent by the colony's governor on a routine trading voyage, were actually privateers on their way to raid Spanish shipping. During their joint voyage the two heavily armed vessels captured a Spanish slave ship and its cargo of nearly one hundred African slaves. The Dutch ship immediately returned to Old Point Comfort near Jamestown. Colonist John Rolfe's letter of January 1620 reported the arrival "about the latter end of August . . . of 20 and odd Negroes." The Dutch mostly sold the Africans to Governor Sir George Yeardley and the colony's wealthiest resident, a merchant named Abraham Peirsey. Smaller vessels from Old Point Comfort smuggled the Africans to Jamestown where some were sold as slaves and luckier ones as indentured servants. Shortly afterwards the Treasurer arrived and dropped off an African slave woman named Angela (the first African-Virginian whose name we know) and set sail for Bermuda with twenty-nine other Africans. Over the next three years English ships brought more Africans to Jamestown. Such was the birth of the transAtlantic slave trade by means of a Dutch ship whose name history has forgotten, a group of unfortunate West Africans stolen and sold at least three times during the horrors of the Middle Passage, and a colony willing to try anything to secure cheap labor.
== Fires, Indian attacks and bad weather plagued Jamestown (perhaps the worst place in Virginia to establish a settlement) several times before the end of the seventeenth century. In 1608 it was accidentally burned and two years later nearly abandoned by its inhabitants just as a new governor, Lord De La Warr, providently arrived with additional colonists and supplies. An Indian attack in 1622 nearly wiped out most of the Virginia colonists (a friendly Indian warned Jamestown in advance); two years later King James took over the struggling settlement and made it the first royal colony in America. A violent hurricane on 27 August 1667 nearly destroyed the area with twelve-foot swells. The town was burned in 1676 during Bacon's Rebellion and suffered another fire in 1698. This proved its death knell; it fell into decline and the capital of Virginia transferred in 1699 to Williamsburg.
== By the 1850s the peninsula had become an island and during the Civil War Confederate and Union forces occupied it. A group of white men (one a British citizen) and a free black were arrested in 1862 near the ruins of the old settlement by members of a runaway slave camp established and protected on the island by a small force of Union troops. Their captors took them before a self-styled black judge (and ex-slave) who conducted a quick mock trial and ordered their immediate execution by firing squad. Only the free black, though badly wounded, managed to crawl away and escape during the confusion surrounding the executions.
== During the latter nineteenth and early twentieth century, under the leadership of the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities (founded 1888 for the preservation of colonial and other state historical sites), last-ditch conservation efforts and a seawall built by the Army Corps of Engineers halted the site's erosion. Publicity surrounding the April 1907 Jamestown Exposition, a national celebration held in Norfolk marking the three-hundredth anniversary of the founding of the first permanent English colony in America 1607 gave added impetus to the preservation of the site. As more excavations uncovered invaluable artifacts and structural traces of the original fort, the island was incorporated into the Colonial National Historical Park and later, the U. S. National Park Service during the 1930s; a recreation of the fort at its seventeenth century zenith was constructed. The federal government declared Jamestown a National Historic Site in 1940. Jamestown Festival Park became part of a historical reservation triangle of approximately fifteen square miles on the peninsula between the York and James Rivers encompassing Cape Henry (site of the first English landing on 26 April 1607) and Yorktown (the final battleground of the American Revolution and site of the British surrender in October 1781). Today Colonial Williamsburg often overshadows Jamestown but it remains a popular tourist attraction.
== William Bayley arrived at Jamestown Colony, Virginia, aboard the ship "Prosperous" in May 1610. (Ship Passenger Lists, The South 1538-1825,
Boyer, p.10). Mary came later in 1617 on "George." In the 1624 "Muster of the Inhabitants in Virginia," Bayley is listed in the "West and Shirley hundred, Charles cities" on
22 Jan 1694 (Hotten, Original lists of Persons of Quality 1600-1700, p. 205). By the time his son is born, William Bayley had settled along
the James River in Henrico County. On an early colonial map, entitled "Curles of the James," his plantation is shown West of Bayley creek on
the James River.

== Historians consider the Battle of Kings Mountain to be the "turning point in the South" in America's War for Independence.
The victory of Patriots over Loyalist troops destroyed the left wing of Cornwallis' army. The battle also effectively ended,
at least temporarily, the British advance into North Carolina. Lord Cornwallis was forced to retreat from Charlotte into South
Carolina to wait for reinforcements. The victory of the Overmountain Men allowed General Nathaniel Greene the opportunity
to reorganize the American Army.
== When British General Henry Clinton learned of his men's defeat at Kings Mountain, he is reported to have
called it "the first link of a chain of evils" that he feared might lead to the collapse of the British plans
to quash the Patriot rebellion. He was right. American forces went on to defeat the British at Cowpens.
A little more than a year after Kings Mountain, Washington accepted Cornwallis's surrender at Yorktown, Virginia.
== Sarah's parent's are Matthew Griffin and Carolyn Jones.
== Thomas served in the American War of Independence (1775 to 1783).
After he died in battle, Sarah married Micajah Lee. See Lee Chart for issue.

| | | married abt. 1790 to Zilpha Lee (b.abt.1770 Johnston Co., NC-d.yr?)
== James "Brit" Bailey, one of Stephen F. Austin's Old Three Hundred colonists, was born in North Carolina on August 1, 1779.
He married Edith Smith, and the couple had six children; after her death around 1815, Bailey married her sister, Nancy, also known
as Dorothy or Dot Smith, and they had five children. Bailey apparently lived in Kentucky for a number of years and reportedly
served in the legislature of that state; however he acquired a controversial reputation and may have been prosecuted for the crime
of forgery before he left the state. He also resided in Tennessee for a number of years and fought in the War of 1812. He, his
family, and six adult slaves moved to Texas around 1818 and settled near the Brazos River, where Bailey allegedly bought land
from the Spanish government. After Mexico gained independence from Spain in 1821 he continued to claim title to his land,
although the Mexican government did not recognize his title. Possibly due either to Bailey's reputation in Kentucky
or his questionable land claim, Stephen F. Austin ordered him to leave the Austin colony. However, on July 7, 1824,
Austin recognized Bailey's squatter's claim to a league and a labor of land on the east bank of the Brazos River near
what is now Bailey's Prairie.
James "Brit" Bailey
== Although Bailey and Austin reportedly disliked one another, Austin convened settlers from the lower Brazos region
to Bailey's home to take an oath of fidelity to the Constitution of 1824. At that meeting Bailey became lieutenant of a company
of militia. In 1829 Governor José María Viesca granted him a commission as captain. Bailey fought in the battles of Jones Creek and
Velasco, respectively in 1824 and 1832.
== He became known for his eccentric behavior and frequently engaged in brawls. He died on December 6, 1832,
probably from cholera. He was buried in the family graveyard on Bailey's Prairie. His will, still extant, required that he be buried
standing up and facing the West" legend has added "with my rifle at my side and a jug of whiskey at my feet." His ghost is
said to wander the area as a white round ball of light, known as Bailey's Light, searching for more whiskey. The Texas Historical
Commission placed a marker near Bailey's Prairie in 1970 to commemorate his life.
