A 1746 Indenture by Nicholas Lanier of Brunswick, mentioned "welbeloved son, Nicholas Shepherd Lanier" Deed Book 3, Page 250. 1770 Brunswick Co.

But, in 1747, this Nicholas Lanier's wife WAS named Mary, and in 1748, this William Nance was neighbors in Brunswick Co w. Sampson Lanier, Thomas "Lanoir", and Nicholas Lanier. The 1717 Will of John Lanier of Prince George Co. mentioned children Robert, John, Sampson, Sarah (Brewer), and Nicholas, and grandson John, son of son Nicholas. A database I found through GenWeb says that Nicholas Lanier, b. 1690 Charles City Co VA to John and Sarah Lanier, had children John (b.1715), William (b.1720), Thomas (b.1722), Clement (b.1737 - sic), and Nicholas Shepherd (b.1717), and married Mary Shepard (sic) abt. 1720. All children are shown as b. to Mary Shepard, but note the discrepancy re dates. Also, it was not traditional to name children with mother's surname; more typical, was use of surname of father's mother.
