Capt John JULIUS [4516]
- Marriage (1): Mary [4009]
- Died: Bef 29 Jul 1697
General Notes:
The IGI, London registers shows John's parents as Capt William Julius and Mrs William Julius, however it is more probable given the dates he was in this generation perhaps the son of John & Mrs Hibbal's
Placement of John as son of William is unproven beyond the entry above, a birth date of "about 1722 London" for a John Julius on the IGI is most improbable. John is not mentioned in William's Will.
John was Commander of the Navy Privateer " The Fancie", he was killed in action against the French in 1697. His will dated 19 June 1697 was recorded at Nevis 29 July 1697. He married but nothing is known of any descendants.
