Description
English: "Jane Byrd of Westover, Virginia, wife of Hon. John Page, of North End, Married 1746. (From the original portrait by Charles Bridges, Virginia, 1750)."
  • Hon. John Page and Jane Byrd Page had 15 children, of whom 11 survived to adulthood. Hon. John Page settled at North End plantation with his wife Jane Byrd, thus beginning a line of the Page family known as the Pages of North End, or 'the black Pages," whereas the Pages of Rosewell, where Hon. John Page was born, were known as 'the white Pages.' Robert Page, a brother of Mann Page and Hon. John Page, became the progenitor of the third branch of the family, known as 'the Broadneck Pages.'
  • The house at North End plantation was destroyed by fire during the American Revolutionary War in 1776, and no gravestones survive for Hon. John Page and his wife Jane (Byrd) Page.
  • Hon. John Page, born at Rosewell Plantation, was educated as a lawyer and served on the colonial council of Virginia, in place of his elder brother Mann Page. He was the second son of Hon. Mann Page of Rosewell Plantation and his wife Judith Carter. John Page married, first, Jane Byrd, daughter of Col. William Byrd II of Westover, and second, Maria Taylor, eldest daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Taylor, of Kensington, England. John Page died in 1780 and was buried at North End.

The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
