Two weeks ago I hired Michael Pollock to do some Virginia Research and see If he could track down William Nichols parents.
I had most of William Life from 1765 to death abt 1789 (dont have actual death info) He was born abt 1725, I was guessing in VA. I had a lot of info which I provided. This is what I have here http://www.mynicholsfamily.com/?p=64. I think his father in law is a john Windom of Isle of Wright Co, VA. I found a Will in Norfolk County VA mentions a William Nichols son of John Nichols, I definately wanted this checked out to see if it was related to my Nichols in any way.

It is a common misconception that admiralty Court records are limited to cases pertaining to seamen and the vessels that traveled the high seas. While a court with admiralty powers regularly oversaw such matters as seamen’s wages, smuggling, piracy, prize (the confiscation of enemy ships and their cargo during wartime),shipwrecks, salvage, insurance, freight and passenger contracts, bottomry (using a ship as collateral), and contracts between merchants and mariners, they also had civil and criminal jurisdiction over all persons having any relation to maritime transactions, including shipbuilders and dockworkers.
Ironically the first By 1775 African Americans numbered more than 500,000 or roughly 25 percent of the North American population. Of these, only 10 percent were free, the rest subject to slavery or indenture. Nonetheless, many blacks had been at the forefront of political unrest in Massachusetts, and on March 5, 1770, Crispus Attucks was killed at the so called Boston Massacre, becoming the first African American to die for his country.
