CAPTAIN ROBERT HICKS, INDIAN TRADER
The origin of Robert Hicks, Indian trader of colonial Virginia, is not known.
He is first identifiable from the Charles City Co. land records where his
father-in-law, John Evans, gives Robert and his wife, Winifred Evans, two
tracts of land totaling 1375 acres between Appomattox River and Blackwater
Creek, one in 1690 and the other in 1694. It is believed that Robert was born
in Charles City Co., Va. In the 1650's. If this is true then the Robert Hicks
listed as one of 40 persons buying land in Charles City Co., April 8, 1654,
as a transportee of Hugh Lee from England, could very possibly be Father of
Capt. Robert and the immigrant of this very prolific family. There are , of
course, some other possibilities as a study of the immigration records will
show. (Future plans include links to these records)
Robert Hicks, nicknamed "Robin", was born circa 1650 (perhaps in Prince
George Co.?). He married 1st Winifred Evans, daughter of John and Mary Evans.
He married second, a woman named Francis, or Frances, dates unknown, and they
lived in Charles City Co., Va., near the present day city of "Hopewell". His
land extended along the Blackwater River east of the James. Nothing is
definitely known of Robert's origins at this time, other than the fact that
upon the death of one of his grandsons, in 1795, Col. George Hicks Jr., a
South Carolina newspaper mentioned George's "English Descent" in his eulogy.
Robert's very large family settled throughout southern Virginia. Land records
of this time and area indicate that a John, Thomas, and Henry Hicks were
contemporaries of Robert's and perhaps were relatives of his. Also settling
north of the James River were the Bryants, Ervins, Kings, Hills, Isbells
(Asbells), Evans, Masons, Hollemans and Williams, all of whom can be traced
through North and South Carolina wherever the Hicks family migrated.
In the 1660's and 1670's, Robert developed a lucrative commercial business
trading with the Indians throughout Western Virginia, the Carolinas and
Georgia. Some of his family married into the Cherokees in the area of
Broomstown, (northern) Georgia, by 1730. These descendents became important
leaders in the Cherokee Nation. Robert traded with all the Indians of these
states, but dealt primarily with the Cherokees and their branch nation known
as the "Catawbas".
Once, when New York trappers were captured by the Catawbas and held for
ransom, the Govenors of New York and Virginia sought Robert's help. He
dispatched his two oldest sons, Daniel and Robert Jr., to negotiate the
captives' release. Upon their successful return, they were given an award by
the Virginia House of Burgesses.
In 1714, the Virginia government built Fort Christiana on the Meherrin River
and they appointed Robert as Captain of the Fort's paid militia, known as the
"Rangers", and it's 12 indian scouts. Robert subsequently moved most of his
family into this area. Governor Spotswood gave the family exclusive trade
rights in western Virginia in return for their service. The family residence
was known as "Hicks' Ford" and was located where the present day city of
"Emporia" is found today, in Greenville Co., Va. In 1728, Capt. Robert was
appointed to the large expedition that surveyed the boundary between North
Carolina and Virginia.
Robert's success with the indians did not make all of the colonial fathers
happy. Many of them wanted this trade for their own states. South Carolina
authorities resorted to harassing him and seizing a lot of his goods. In an
effort to improve his influence in the area, Robert moved several of
relatives into South Carolina. Two sons, George and John, settled in "Old
Cheraws" and Colleton Co. Respectively, between 1707 and 1741. They were
followed by several other relatives. Captain Robert Hicks died in 1739 (his
will was proved Feb. 7, 1739).
"Capt. Henry Batte ordered to assign and swear appraisers of Estate of Timothy Rieve" (the French pronunciation of the name apparently still persisting).

"Capt. Henry Batte ordered to assign and swear appraisers of Estate of Timothy Rieve" (the French pronunciation of the name apparently still persisting).
I suggest now the likelihood that this Timothy "Rieve" or Rives was the emigrant ancestor and that he was identical with 206, Timothy Ryves, born 1625, son of Timothy and Mary Ryves of (Oxford (p.51), and that he was the father of George, Robert, John, and Timothy Rives, of Virginia. The William Rives living in Surry in 1684 and 1695 may well have been another son of this this Timothy. At any rate I advance the hypothesis as one for future investigators to bear carefully in mind.
The earliest records of Rives in Virginia are found in The Original Lists of Persons of Quality
Lists of the Livinge and Dead in Virginia Febr: 16th 1623.
