This is a map of the approximate location of the plantation of my earliest known Waggener ancestors, John and Rachel Waggener. It was described as being on the north side of Hoskins Creek. This creek flows west into the Rappahannock River near the town of Tappahannock, Virginia. The land apparently was aquired by John and Rachel around 1670 and it was passed to their youngest son Benjamin, after Rachel's death in 1718. It was subsequently passed to several of his children after his wife's death in about 1756, and it was apparently sold out of the family in around 1770. At that point the Waggeners were completely gone from this area. I'm not sure of the precise location, but it must be in this area between the creek and Highway 627, probably not too far from Mount Landing.
