During the forced sales held to settle the Robinson affair, William Black acquired some lands of John Robinson’s estate. Black also won some of Bernard Moore’s land in the raffle held 14 Dec. 1769, for which GW was a manager. Black was now selling out, and in Dec. 1773 GW, on behalf of Jacky Custis, bought some of these lands in the Pamunkey River valley to add to the Custis estates.
