MACON.
Thomas Macon came to the county from New Kent in 1833.
In that year he purchased from John Price Sampson Tufton,
a plantation, which contained a thousand and forty acres,
had once belonged to Mr. Jefferson, and which has since
been the home of the Macon family. Mr. Macon was an earnest
member of the Episcopal Church. On account of his
intelligence and high character, he was soon appointed a
magistrate of the county, in which office he served until his
decease. He died in 1851.
