There is an Anth. Jordan and Rich. Banen named in the head rights of John Moone in 1635. These names suggest Arthur Jordan and RIchard Baven, men of these names having settled early in Surry County Virginia. Richard Bevin is also named in the 1635 patent. This listing could be for the son Arthur Jordan who was only eight years old but the law directed that a head right must be 10 years of age. The preponderance of evidence indicates that Henry Brown acted as guardian for the Jordan Children.
