He had a will probated on 27 Aug 1729 in Westmoreland County, Virginia. The parentage of Rose Tucker is uncertain. Parents attributed to her are Thomas Sturman and Ann Porter, and Isaac Allerton and Elizabeth Willoughby. (Since Willoughby Allerton was the son of Isaac Allerton and Elizabeth Willoughby, this connection would make him the brother of Rosemund, uncleof Sarah Tucker, and grand uncle of his wife (this does not seem likely). It was suggested that Rosemund Tucker was the daughter of Isaac Allerton and Fear Brewster, in which case she would have been the sister of Isaac Allerton and aunt of Willoughby, making Sarah Tucker his cousin and Rosemund Fitzhugh his 1st cousin once removed.) Thomas and Ann Sturman did have a daughter, Rosemond, mentioned in Ann's will of 1654, who was living in England at the time of her mother's death [Fleet, Beverly, Virginia Colonial Abstracts, Vol. XXIII, Westmoreland Co., 1653-57, online at Ancestry.com] Isaac Allerton is listed in Mayflower Increasings as the son of Isaac Allerton, Mayflower immigrant, and Fear Brewster. Isaac Allerton m. Elizabeth Willoughby and had issue: Elizabeth Allerton b. 27 Sep 1653 Isaac Allerton b. 11 Jun 1655 Willoughby Allerton b. 1664 Westmoreland, VA m. Rosemond Fitzhugh 1698 d/o William Fitzhugh and Sarah Tucker (daughter of John and Rose Tucker ) Frances Allerton b. 1668 Westmoreland, VA Sarah Allerton b. 1670 Westmoreland, VA There is not a Rose or Rosanna listed in this database. Married Well and Often, marriages of the north neck of Virginia, indicates that John Newton married Rose Tucker Garrard, daughter of Isaac Allerton. From Colonial Virginians and their Maryland relatives by Norma Tucker No proof has been located to establish the maiden name of Rose who married John Tucker but some facts suggest her identity. The March 1708 Westmoreland County Court ordered John Wheeler to pay 400 pounds of tobacco to Rosanna Gerard proving that Rose's name was actually Rosanna. There is but one Rosanna among the Westmoreland families closely associated with Westmoreland Tuckers. That was Rosanna Sturman, whose family came from Maryland to Northumberland County to Westmoreland County. John Tucker also came first to Northumberland County, then to Westmoreland County. And Rose and John Tucker of Westmoreland County gave power of attorney in Northumberland County, 7 Aug 1667 to James Claughton. Therefore Norma Tucker hpothesizes that Rose Tucker Gerard Newton was Rosanna Sturman, daughter of Thomas and Ann (Porter) Sturman. Ann Sturman's 1654 will named daughter Rosanna, then in England. No last name appears in the will, so whether Rosanna was single, married to John Tucker, or married to someone else does not appear there. On 8 July 1709, Rose Tucker Gerard Newton gave her age as "80 or thereabouts" [and according to International Marriage records she was born in 1629]. Her Tucker children were apparently born between about 1663 and 1671, as she could have been the Rosanna Sturman in England when her mother wrote her will. Kennedy identified the Rose who married John Tucker as a daughter of Isaac Alleron. This was an error, as the line of the first Issac Allerton (who came on the Mayflower and spent time in Massachusetts, in England, in Maryland, and in Virginia) has been thouroughly researched and she does not appear there. In addition, the Isaac Allerton cited as husband was at least two generations younger than Rose. Apparently Kennedy confused one of Rose's descendants with Rose. Another source says that Thomas Gerard (who married John Tucker's widow) married (1) Susanne Snow and married (2) Rose Fitzburg in England, but John Tucker's widow would have been Rose Tucker at her marriage to Gerard, so Thomas Gerard may have been married three times, or that researcher's data may have been in error.
