Richard and Elizabeth lived most of their married life at his house with adjoining store, identified in early years as The Richard Bland House but more recently as The Wetherburn Tavern of Colonial Williamsburg, as documented by the family and in The Secret Diaries of William Byrd. According to genealogies of both Randolph and Bland families, written by her children and grandchildren, Elizabeth was never married to anyone else before or after she married Richard Bland. All five of their children were born at the house and baptized at Bruton Parish Church where Richard served on the vestry. Shortly before their deaths, they sold the house and store and removed to their newly constructed home at Jordan's Point. Elizabeth preceded her husband in death by about one month. Two of her brothers were named as executors of Richard's will (copies of which survive) and as guardians of their five children According to genealogies of both Randolph and Bland families, written by her children and grandchildren, Elizabeth was never married to anyone else before or after she married Richard Bland, and she had no other children other than these five: 1. Mary Bland (born August 21, 1704) married Henry Lee I and had four children 2. Elizabeth Bland (born May 29, 1706) married Colonel William Beverley, the son of Robert Beverley, Jr., and had four children.[2] 3. Richard Bland (born May 6, 1710) married Anne Poythress and had twelve children. According to Lyon Gardiner Tyler, his second marriage was to Martha Macon (the widow of Mr. Massie) and his third marriage was to Elizabeth Blair, also a widow. 4. Anna Bland (born 1711) married twice. She had three children with her first husband, Robert Munford, and two children with her second husband, George Currie. 5. Theodorick Bland (born 1719) married Frances Bolling, the daughter of Drury Bolling, and had five children PLEASE NOTE: This Elizabeth (Randolph) Bland is NOT the same person as the woman in the portrait at the Virginia Historical Society. Please do not add that portrait to this memorial. The woman in the portrait is the wife of Peyton Randolph, and so Randolph is her married name, not her maiden name. My thanks, Barbara Bland
