      Bio:
      From Malone and Allied Families
      By Dr. Randolph A.Malone

      If Daniel Malone [1-1] is indeed the progenitor of the Virginia Malones, he was probably
      dead by 8-3-1688 and his wife remarried. At a court on that date, "Robert Mallone, an orphan, and with consent of his father-in-law John Raine (?), chooses Samuel Tatem his guardian, who promises (to) allow the orphan at the end of his term, the usual things, and to use his utmost endeavor to cure his head." We must remember that in Colonial records of that era "father-in-law" was also used to mean "stepfather.") Robert's head must have healed, because he received from the Charles City Co. Court 200 lbs of tobacco for killing wolves in 1694. Robert must have been a very young man in 1694. No further mention of Robert, Mary or Daniel Malone is found in existing Charles City Co. records. A Robert alone married Mary Harrison in Somerset Co, MD. in 1728, but he is not likely to be the same Robert Malone, since the Somerset Co. Robert lived until 1779, which would make him about 100 years old at his death. What does stand out in these records is how intimately this Malone family was related to the Harrison family in the few records we have of them.

      How many children Daniel Malone 1-1 may have had is unknown, but it is likely that one child was Robert Malone who was not of age in 1688, and that his Malone mother had remarried John Raine. It would seem, then, that Daniel Malone had died by 1688 and his widow had married John Raine. Robert Malone must have been a young man on his own by 1694. There is no proof of these relationships, but since Daniel, Mary and Robert are the only Malones mentioned in Charles City County, VA records, the circumstantial evidence is suggestive. The other Malone boys were probably too young to be apprenticed out at the time of that record.

      Between 1688 - 1715 there was an apparent second generation of Malones who were of
      land-owning age, living either in Charles City County or its daughter county, Prince George.

      Two men comfortably fit this age and location category: Daniel Malone 2-1 and Robert
      Malone 2-2. Robert Malone was left an orphan in Charles City Co. records in 1688. His
      mother, apparently named Mary, had remarried John Raine by 4-13-1688. Daniel Malone 2-1, who also had close relationships with the Bolling and Wynne family, died in Prince George County by Feb.1713.

      Robert Malone 2-2 is the most closely associated of his generation with the probable progenitor Daniel Malone 1-1. He is found as an under age orphan in Charles City County court records on 8-3-1688: "Robert Mallone, an orphan, and with consent of his father-in-law (step-father) John Raine, chooses Samuel Tatem his guardian,who promises (to)allow orpahn at end of his term, the usual things, and to use his utmost endeavor to cure his head." Since no other Malones are noted in Charles City County records except Daniel and Mary Malone, it must be assumed without definite proof that Robert was the son of Daniel Malone 1-1 who had died by 1688. His mother Mary Malone then remarried John Raine, and Robert, probably a teenager, was apprenticed out to Samuel Tatem. Robert apparently recovered from his head ailment, because a Charles City County, VA court record on 11-9-1694 notes that Joshua Wynne and Robert Malone were each paid (among others) 200 lbs. of tobacco for killing wolves. Robert was either the oldest or the
      youngest of Daniel's children at his death, since no other orphans seemed old enough
      (or young enough) for apprenticeship. With so many records missing in Charles City
      County, we are left without further data. No further information is known about Robert. Did he move to Maryland? Could he be the same Robert who married Mary Harrison in Somerset Co, MD in 1728? It is not likely, since that Robert Malone did not die until 1779.
