Note that WIGGANS is spelled WICKENS. I don't know if this is father Edmond or son that married Olive. Fincher HAYNE was named on another deed with or adj BRYANT, I am waiting for that information, to see if Wm is near Fincher.

There was an older Edmond WICKENs that was in the book by John BODDIE called  "17th Century Isle of Wight VA". Edmond was mentioned in real early years like 1670. So, the above John and Edmond may be his sons who inherited the land they sold Fincher.
