Cur Almost all the Baskerville information is from the book "Genealogy of the Baskerville Family" mentioned in my sources. There are no records for George after 1717 and it is supposed that he died in Charles City County. The will of Hugh Norvell, proved in York County, March 21, 1747, names sister Sarah Baskerville, and George Baskerville, son of John Baskerville... The History of Virginia gives her name as Elizabeth.
