| Augustine Warner Sr. 1611-1674 Photo found at: https://wikimili.com/en/Augustine_Warner_Sr.
"Augustine was born in Norwich, Norfolk, United Kingdom (England).
He arrived in Virginia in 1628 at the age of seventeen.
A member of the House of Burgesses in 1652 and then in 1659 a member of the King's Council, which he held until his death (1674, age 63). About 1657, he moved across the York River to Gloucester County, where he settled and built the first house at Warner Hall."
"There was no monarch in England between 1649 and 1659. This was a period known as the Commonwealth administered by Oliver Cromwell 1649 - 1658, and Richard Cromwell 1658 - 1659. The House of Stuart was restored with Charles ll in 1660."
This may actually be of Augustine Warner Jr. as he was the Speaker of the Virginia House of Burgesses and this portrait was loaned to William and Mary College in Williamsburg to hang in the library according to page 51 of the online book "Lewis of Warner Hall" found - https://books.google.com/books?id=yeWgvfDpwbwC&pg=PA17&source=gbs_toc_r&cad=4#v=onepage&q&f=false

| Warner Hall in Gloucester, Virginia "The Home of the Queen's American Ancestors." Augustine Warner arrived in America in 1628 at age 17. In 1642 he received a 600-acre plantation in Gloucester, Virginia in exchange for bringing twelve settlers across the Atlantic Ocean to the Jamestown Settlement, a colony desperately in need of manpower to survive in the New World.
"Queen Elizabeth II, the current monarch of England, is a direct descendent of Augustine Warner Sr. through the Bowes-Lyon family and the Earl of Strathmore."
Bacon's Rebellion - "After leading a 1676 rebellion against the British governor and burning Jamestown, Bacon retreated to Warner Hall Plantation. At the time, Augustine Warner Jr., who was Speaker of the House of Burgesses and a member of the King’s Council, was in residence and very likely agitated that his plantation was taken over by opponents of the Crown."
"Today, Warner Hall consists of a Colonial Revival manor house (circa 1900) which was rebuilt on the earlier 17th and 18th century foundation."
