      DESCENDANTS OF #3 THOMAS ATHY (2)
      As the oldest son of #3 Thomas Athy (2), #8 Thomas Athy, Jr. (3)
      seems to have acquired the Athy family property in Maryland except for the home place, "Stony Hill", where his father probably lived. In 1741 he bought "Chance Situate", a 100 acre tract, located between Piscataway Creek and Mattawoman Creek near "Hopewell"; however, he sold this tract in 1745. Even though his father outlived him, he had acquired the 80 acre family tract "Hopewell" prior to 1748 at which time he requested that its boundries by established by a commission appointed by the
      County. Futhermore, he also acquired the 200 acre tract, "Athey's
      Choice", from his father at some time prior to his father's death in 1761.

      In his will, he left 80 acres ("Hopewell") to his daughter #20
      Mary Athy (4) and 200 acres ("Athey's Choice") to be divided equally between his daughters #21 Lucy Athy Feagins (4) and #22 Sarah Athy Staige (4). In the will both properties are referred to as "Athey's Choice", certainly in error, although it is possible that the two properties are adjacent and had been combined.

      Mary sold her 80 acres in 1774. Thomas' wife Sarah demanded and
      received her widow's third of the 200 acre tract and sold it in 1779. Daughters Lucy and Sarah also sold their thirds of the 200 acres in 1779. Lucy and Sarah lived in Fauquier County in Virginia at that time; and Mary also lived in Virginia, possibly in Fauquier County.
