Capt. Izard Bacon of the "Brooke" patented 1030 acres in Henrico County, VA under the name of Uppernum Brooke patented by Mrs. Frances Izard in 1681. In December 1724, John Bacon of New Kent petitioned the Council for a new grant of the same as having descended to him from the said Mrs. Frances Izard. In 1727 the land was actually patented by John Bacon. In the docket of the General Court preserved in the Ludwell Mss, in the Virginia Historical Society, there is the title of a suit:
"William Clopton the younger and Joyce his wife vs. John Bacon per John Turner, Executor of Frances Izard, deceased"
In one branch of the Bacon family of VA tradition says, V. John Bacon was the son of Nathaniel Bacon the "Rebel" that he was adopted by Mrs. Frances Izard and the above land known as the Brooke was willed to him and from him descended to Capt. Izard Bacon. This does not agree with the belief of the Virginia Historical Society, but does agree with the traditions of the whole Bacon family in Virginia, Kentucky, South Carolina and Georgia. The older slaves brought from Virginia by John Bacon to Kentucky in the latter part of the 18th century often told John Bacon's children that Nathaniel Bacon "The Rebel was their ancestor; that he was poisoned by the treachery of friends of Governor Berkeley, and the as Berkeley had offered a reward for him dead or alive. When he died his slaves buried him in the night in the James River and weighted his coffin with stones so his body might be secure from the vengeance of Berkeley."
