There are a few articles about this family, and one of these articles is in the book: "Genealogies of Virginia Families from the William and Mary College Quarterly. Vol. I. Adams-Clopton" - page 231. Also in the book called, "With Reverence for the Past: Gloucester County, Virginia" by Martha W. McCartney, on page 67, we learn this: "On Feb. 26, 1680, Edmund Gwyn (Gwynn) of Ware Parish conveyed to the people of Gloucester County a six-acre tract of land was to be used for the construction of a county courthouse and other buildings. If the property ceased being put to that use, it was to revert to his heirs forever". At the time he was living on that property. A photo of that courthouse on this property is on this page in his memory. He has had many great grandchildren who have visited these areas of Virginia, so if you are related to him and go to Gloucester historic area or to the old churches there, remember that your great grandparents walked this land hundreds of years before.
Dr. Edmund died on 10 Mar 1683 in Gloucester, Gloucester, Virginia, USA. He was about 33 years old.
