Nathaniel Tatum was born in 1599. He was christened Nov 18 1599 at Holy Trinity the Less Church in London, England. He was the son of William Tatum and Ellen Kirk who married on 3 Aug 1587 at St. Benet Grace Church in London. His parents must have died when he was young because he was on a list at Bridewell Royal Hospital records, 27 Feb 1618/19 of 75 boys and 25 girls who were to go to Virginia. These children were 8-16 years old and had been found "running wild in the streets" of London, "sleeping under stalls", and begging and had been committed to Bridewell, which served as a house of correction. They were mainly homeless though some were probably petty pilferers. One of the ships that brought these children to Virginia was the "George" which left London March 1618/1619 and arrived in Virginia in May 1619. The muster list of the Inhabitants of the neck of land in Charles Cittie in VA, Feb 24, 1624 includes "Nathaniell Tatam, aged 20 years, arrived in the "George", May 1619." In Feb 1623 Nathaniel was listed as living in the West and Shirley Hundred and at Shirley Hundred, Charles City, in the muster, 22 Jan 1624/5. He was listed as 20 years old and having come to Virginia in 1619 on the "George." Muster of the Inhabitants of the neck of land in Charles Cittie in VA, Feb 24, 1624: (list includes) "Nathaniell Tatam, aged 20 years, in the "George", May 1619." In 1624 when he was 25 years old, Nathaniel moved from the north side of the James River to the south side. His wife was named Ann. When he was 39 years old, Nathaniel patented 100 acres of land in Charles City Co on Appomattox River 25 July 1638 for transporting his wife Ann and his daughter Mary Tatum.
