The Randolph Family Cemetery Nottoway Plantation John Hampden Randolph 1813-1883 Emily Jane Liddell Randolph 1818 -1904 . When John Randolph died in 1883 , his entire estate was left to his wife Emily. Emily decided she could no longer stay at Nottoway without John . Nottoway was sold and Emily divided the money equally between herself and her Children . Legend has it on the last day in her beloved home , Mrs. Randolph dressed in black walked through the empty mansion and closed the shutters on each of the 200 windows. Emily returned to Nottoway , when she was laid to rest next to her husband John .
