Ann Redman & the Virginia Lloyd's

I made this image using Artificial Intelligence on Facebook called MetaAI. It’s meant to represent the African servant Edward Mozingo holding a fiddle. Edward was a carpenter and he made his own fiddle!

I made this image with MetaAI, it is to illustrate what Ann Redman probably looked like in 1697, when she so famously took Thomas Lloyd to court for her freedom.

It’s my belief Ann got pregnant with Thomas Lloyd’s child, a son born around 1695 and named after the father, Thomas.

It’s my belief Ann is a daughter of Edward Mozingo, the African servant freed in 1672. It could be Edward interacted with Ann’s mother Jane who was a servant to William Lloyd, Thomas’s father, either prior to his freedom say around 1670 or after around 1673. Edward’s master was John Walker and he died in about 1669.

So, this is my family story, like that of Roots.

Thomas Lloyd: he was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses. He fathered my 7th great grandfather with his mulatto servant Ann Redman and it’s my belief Edward Mozingo is Ann’s long lost father!

In 1701, Samuel Bayley inherited land next to Edward Mozingo, then in 1718 Samuel appraised the estate of Ann Lloyd whom I believe to be Ann Redman. My theory is her father is Edward Mozingo!

I’ve been doing more Genealogy research, found another link in my theory that tells a story…..Samuel Bayley 1691-1727 helped appraise the estate of Ann Lloyd in 1718. This Ann Lloyd I believe…

From this info, it’s my belief that Ann Lloyd is Ann Redman, servant to Thomas Lloyd. Because in 1718 there’s an estate of Ann that was appraised by Gabriel Packett. Prior to that Joshua Lawson gav…

Ann Redman, kept in bo***ge by Thomas Lloyd who is most likely the father of her child described in a 1696 court record when she ran away from the Lloyd plantation. It’s my theory that Ann is my 8th great grandmother and that her father is Edward Mozingo.
