The name of Randolph was widely scattered through in the British Isles early in the history of that area.  The name was well known in Scotland as early as the days of King Robert Bruce.  Among the earliest Randolphs in Scottish history is Thomas Randolph, Lord of Stratnith.  He married Lady Isabel Bruce, sister of King Robert Bruce.  His son, Sir Thomas Randolph, was first Earl of Moray.  His wife was Isabel Stewart, daughter of Sir John Stewart of Bonkle.  Sir Thomas Randoph's son, Thomas Randolph, 2nd Earl of Moray was killed in the Battle of Dupplin on August 12, 1332.  The title passed to his brother, John Randolph, who became the 3rd Earl of Moray.  John Randolph married his cousin, Isabel Stewart, the daughter of Sir Alexander Stewart of Bonkle.  They had no children.  The title was assumed by John Randolph's sister, Black Agnes Randolph, upon his death.  Her marriage to Patrick, Earl of  Dunbar took the title away from the Randolph family.
The name of Randolph was also found in that part of the British Isles known as England at almost the same time as it was found in Scotland.  There is no absolute proof that the two families were related but it is reasonable to assume that they were.   Consequently, it is quite difficult to determine the exact paternal ancestor from whom the Randolph emigrants, to the American Colony of Virginia, were descended.  However it seems to be agreed by most writers concerning this family that the name can be definitely traced to Richard Randolph of Hams, Sussex, England.  Who his parents were is lost in the pages of history, but through the ancestry of his son, William, the maternal ancestors of the Randolph family is found Henry de Bohun, 1rst Earl of Hereford.  Therefore, the history of the Randolph maternal ancestors will begin with Henry de Bohun.

Notes for WILLIAM RANDOLPH:
SIXTH GENERATION IN AMERICA

William Randolph, the second son of Henry Randolph IV and Tabitha (Poythress), was married circa 1764 to Miriam Eppes, daughter of Maj. Edmond Eppes and Henrietta Marie (Hardiman). Ten children were born to this union; Nathanial, Peyton, Elizabeth Orpha, Isham, Henry, Mahala, Tabitha, Sarah, Edmond, Miriam.
William was appointed guardian of Grief Randolph's children.  Grief's wife, Mary, was Miriam's sister.
Oh the fifth of December, 1776, William Randolph was commissioned captain in the Chesterfield County Militia.  On the sixth of August, 1779, he resigned his commission as captain of militia.
William Randolph was inoilved in a  number of real estate transactions.  Some of these were disputed.  In 1779 he was named in a chancery suit brought by his brother John, who claimed that William was trying to sell property that was adjacent to his but not legally his to sell.  William claimed that this was all part of the Rich Neck bequest.  William lost.  He was named in a number of other suits brought by various family moved to Sullivan County, North Carolina (became Tennessee in 1796).  There is a suggestion that this move may have been influenced by all the litigation as at least two suits were dismissed because he had left the state.
After William's death his wife, Miriam Ann moved to Warren County, Tennessee and lived with her daughter, Mahala Conley.  Miriam died about 1814 and is buried in an unmarked grave in the Cumberland Presbyterian Church Cemetery, Warren County, TN.
***********************
According to The Billingsley Family in America, by Harry Alexander Davis......
William was a Captain in the Revolutionary Army from Dec. 5, 1776 to August 6, 1779, a record of which is found in Chesterfield County, Virginia Order Book No. 6.  1776-1784.   He moved his family to Sullivan County, North Carolina, which later became part of Tennessee, about 1796.  He resided in many of the East Tennessee Counties and is reported to have died about 1810 in Hawkins County.

SEVENTH GENERATION IN AMERICA

Peyton Randolph was born in Virginia.  He moved with his father to North Carolina where he is believed to have married.  He is known to have lived in White, Warren, and McMinn Counties, Tennessee.  In the Census of McMinn County for 1850, he is shown as living in the family of his grand-daughter, Nancy Myses, the wife of Leroy Myses.  In the same family Nancy's mother, Rhoda Randolph, widow of Robert Payne Randolph, lived with them.  From the reported date of birth, Peyton must have been more than 84 years old at his death.  He is not shown in the 1860 census and was presumed to be dead.
Mary Payne was the cousin of Sally Payne who married Peyton's brother, Isham Randolph.  Mary Payne was born in North Carolina.

Notes for LOGAN RANDOLPH:
LOGAN RANDOLPH.  It has been truly said that the farmers are the bone and sinew of the country's prosperity, and in no land is that fact more apparent than in this glorious home of liberty.  They are indeed an important factor in the stability and steadfastness which have made this Republic of so much more importance in the world than her sister Republic, France.  We see in our subject a worthy example of those who in this walk of life haave done so much, and indeed the greater part, towards strengthening the bulwarks of the Nation and advancing her prosperity.  Soon after the war, Mr. Randolph purchased a tract of eighty acres of land in Pope County, on section 27, township 13, range 5.  To this original purchase as a nucleus he has added as the years passed, until his farm now numbers four hundred acres all in a body.
Logan Randolph was born in Wilson County, Tenn., July 30, 1842, and was the son of Samuel Richard and Mary (McCroy) Randolph, who were likewise natives of the same State.  The paternal grandparents of our subject, John and Mary Ann Randolph, were among the first settlers of Pope County.  The former was a farmer by occupation, and owned large tracts of land in this locality, where his death occurred about the year 1848.  Samuel Richard Randolph emigrated to Illinois with his father, and settled on a farm near the latter's home.  He was married in Tennessee, and with his wife made the journey to Illinois in wagons, taking about three weeks to cover the distance.  They led a gypsy life, cooking and camping out on the way, and crossing the Ohio River at the village of Golconda, Illinois.  Mr. Randolph was numbered among the enterprising farmers and stock raisers of the county, where he resided until the winter of 1876, when he was called to the home beyond.
Our subject was the only child of Samuel Richard Randolph and Mary McCroy, and remained on the old homestead until sixteen years of age.  He was entirely without school privileges, but learned to read and write while in the army.  He has always made the most of what advantages were at his command, and through his observation and wise system of reading has become conversant with all essential matters occupying the minds of the average citizen of today.  When only eighteen years of age he enlisted as a private soldier in Co. A, One Hundred and Twentieth Illinois Infantry.   With his regiment he took an active part in many important battles of the war, among which were the siege and the surrender of Vicksburg, and the battles of Guntown (Miss.) and of East Port, in the same State.  He recieved an honorable discharge at Memphis, Tenn., September 16, 1865, having been in active service for three years.  Owing to the injuries to his health from which he still suffers.
In this township, February 14, 1867, Mr. Randolph married Miss Sarah E. Abbott, who was born on the same farm where she is still living, on January 30, 1852.  Her father, who was prosperous farmer and a respected citizen of this township for a number of years, was born in Tennessee.  Her mother, a native of Illinois, in the early days carded, wove and spun the cloth from which she constructed the garments for the whole family.  Mr. and Mrs. Randolph had ten children.  Our subject, who is liberal in his religious views, is not a member of any denomination, but socially holds membership with Temple Hill Lodge No. 701, A.F. & A.M.  He is a School Director, in which position he has served faithfully for nine years, and politically, votes in favor of the Democracy.

Taken from the BIOGRAPHICAL REVIEW of Johnson, Massac, Pope and Hardin Counties, Illinois.  Chicago Biographical Publishing Co. 1893. p. 288 & 289

The following information was taken from Allan R. Edwards book of 1959.

When Logan Randolph's stepmother, Elinda Hayes, was divorced by Samuel R. Randolph, Logan went to live with Henderson Abbott.  He regarded this man so highly that he named his first son in memory of him.  Logan also married Henderson Abbott's only child.
