A day later he purchased a suit and offered clothing for sale, beginning his career as a tailor there. He purchased more land in Beverwyck on July 27, 1657. Beaver skins were the chief product of the region, and his enthusiasm for the business brought him afoul of the law on July 15, 1660, he and others being charged with going into the woods or employing Dutchmen as brokers for trade there with the Indians. On April 20, 1661 he declared that he was about to depart for the Esopus (an early name for Kingston, New York, also applied to the area of the Esopus river, and finally a town east of Kingston). By September 11, 1663 he sold his house and lot in Beverwyck. The summer of 1663 was a trying one for him. On June 7 the Indians sacked and buried Wildwyck and took his wife Grietje and their child away.

Virginians, assert that Jefferson conceived the idea of a popular government for the American States while observing the business transactions of the little Baptist church of which Andrew Tribble was pastor.
The first deed entry in Kentucky for Andrew Tribble was surveyed by Daniel Boone, the pioneer.
Andrew Tribble is listed in the Patriot Index of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) Patriot Index. p. 687. Public Service Claims for Albemarie Co., Va. on 11 May 1782 show that andrew Tribble provided baccon to the Militia as follows:
No. 128 To Andre Tribble's Certificate for 88 lbs. bacon taken by a guard conducting State prisoners to Staurtion. To Andrew Tribble's Certificate for 92 lbs. bacon taken by Militia.
These records provide proven descendants of Andrew Tribble with eligibility for membership in the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Sons of the American Revolution by reason of Andrew Tribble provicing supplies to the Continental Army.

Hello & thanks for your reply: Full name is DANIEL COLEMAN EDWARDS, b. abt 1750 in VA. Ancestry.Com always show birth as being in Bedford Co but I find no proof. He was supposely the son of WILLIAM EDWARDS & Grizzel Coleman, dau. of Daniel & PATIENCE ELLIOTT. DC's will was probated in Cumberland Co [Southam Par] 22 Jan 1770 & refers to his dau. Grizzel as Grizzel Edwards. Patience's will was probated 26 Aug 1771, Southam Par, Cumberland Co. per "Abstracts of Cumberland Co, VA Will Books 1 & 2, pp. 43 & 47.I went to Cumberland Ct House & searched for Daniel but found only William.In Pittsylvania Co. I found a copy of an Indenture in Deed Book 11, pp 246-247 dated 15 Feb 1798 whereby Bennett sold to DANIEL C. EDWARDS OF THE COUNTY OF BEDFORD. Proving his residence prior to that date was Bedford Co & then became resident of PittsCo. In another deed dated 15 Sep 1820 Daniel's full name is used [DCE].In "Marriages & Deaths From Lynchburg, VA Newspapers 1794-1836 sponsored by Randall Holt Chapter, NSD of the American Colonists, p. 180 has a brief obit & from there I found a complete copy of same: MR. EDWARDS WAS A SOLDIER IN THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR...Obit has a title ANOTHER REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIER GONE. That statement is not enough to prove his service as I submitted DCE DAR last year & was told that I needed more proof. He has never been submitted before.If I had to guess, I would guess that he lived in BedCo during the War years... so far, no proof. No Oath taken in PittsCo. but I cannot find any such list for Bedford. I queried PittsCo Historical Society, nothing there in the way of anything!So: if DCE's parents are in fact Wm. & Grizzel, why was he born in Bedford Co. & lived there for a good part of his adult life? He is not to be found in Maude Carter Clement's book, nor in the 1777 Oaths list of PittsCo, nor VAs Colonial Soldiers nor VA Military Records but for one DANIEL EDWARDS who was paid along with others for work on the fort at York Towne, p. 464. DAR replied that he would not have traveled to York Towne just to help build a fort. Someone once suspected he had been in the 14th or 15th VA Reg. No proof yet.Do I know too much! Also know he did not give food, animals tot he War effort in any of the 3 counties.ThanksPJ- Original Message ----- From: "marsha moses" <[log in to unmask]>To: <[log in to unmask]>Sent: Saturday, July 02, 2011 9:11 AMSubject: Re: [VA-ROOTS] Pittsylvania & Bedford Co, VA.

Henning Stockfleth belonged to a large circle of relatives immigrated sønderjyder that under the governor's management-dominated Eastern in the decades around 1650. As a bishop in Christiania 1646-64, he was influenced by this network.
Stockfleth 1629 went from Latin school in Haderslev to the University of Rostock, continued in 1632 to the University of Wittenberg and came 1635 to the University of Copenhagen. There, he took the 1637 Master's degree in theology. His parents and brothers had moved from 1628 to 1629 Haderslev to Bragernes, and with the governor using the established and other relatives as merchants and officials in several districts in eastern Norway. Henning Stockfleth was from 1637 rector of the cathedral school at Christiania, besides, he became professor of logic and metaphysics at the high school there (founded 1636 to provide education to prospective priests). 1641 he became vicar of Aker, a priest at Akershus Castle and Dean in Bragernes prostitution, and during a visit to Christiania in 1646 appointed him to the four Christian bishop in Akershus staple. The king was deeply involved in the church board and gave the first order to the trial sermons, with participation by others. Stockfleth was recommended to the vacant episcopal office of governor, Hannibal Sehested. Popularly stated that Sehesteds wife, Christian 4's daughter Christiane, had bet 200 ducats with Stockfleth that he would get the position.
Stockfleth was a rich man as a bishop. Sehested arranged to increase the salary of 200 thalers a year, and Frederik 3 gave him duty free beer and wine for three years for speeches by kongehyllingen 1648. Sehested exploited bishop debt of gratitude by getting him on a makeskifte governor of newly acquired Norwegian private goods with attractive goods that belonged to religious institutions.
Under Sehesteds influence was Stockfleth a less zealous bishop than what was common in the Lutheran orthodoxy. Sehested must have amused themselves when the priests gjøv loose on each other with harsh accusations. He gave theology lecturer at the school, Niels Svendssøn Chronich , free rein to sharp attacks on priests in the city, and it developed into a hateful war of words between them without the bishop intervened, apparently because Sehested not want it. After the fall of 1651 Sehesteds Stockfleth began to tighten the reins, and 1652 Chronich moved to Copenhagen. There he was convicted in 1655 for heresy and imprisoned.
Struggles of Christiania and hinterland continued in the following years. Stockfleth was less passive. Attracted the greatest attention that the professor and doctor Ambrosius Rhodius supported his wife Anna's harsh accusations against officials in Christiania, also against Stockfleth. Men's Day 1661 sentenced them to prison for libel, and in 1662 they were deported to Vardøhus.
In the early 1660s opposed Stockfleth priest brothers Alf Pederssøn Adolph Ringsaker and Iver Pederssøn Adolph in Fron. They were in conflict with men in Stockfleths network, with strong support from farmers. It seemed that the brothers should be sentenced and peasant leaders in Ringsaker imprisoned since 1664, died Stockfleth governor Iver Krabbe was followed by UF Gyldenløve. When was the trial of brothers Adolph called off.
It is preserved part likprekener from Henning Stockfleths hand, including over stattholder Gregers Krabbe governor over and over Jens Bjelke wife Sophie Brockenhuus.

Henry Cobb, b. in 1596 in the southeast part of the County of Kent, England. He was brought up in the Church of England, but in his young manhood, because of the wrongs tolerated in that Church, he broke away from the Establishment and joined the Pilgrims. He is said to have united with a Congregational Church in London, of which the Rev. Mr. Lothrop was then pastor. He probably came to America in "The Anne" in 1629. He moved to Scituate, Mass., in 1633, and from there to Barnstable, Mass., in 1639. He was Deacon or Ruling Elder in Scituate and Barnstable (Congregational Churches) 34 years. He also held various civil offices, among them that of Deputy to the General Court of the Colony for several years. He died in Barnstable at the age of 83 in 1679. He was m.

Henry Crowell
From "Supplement to Crowel History, Footprints in the Sands of Time" pg. 35; we read:
"Henry Crowel, fourth son of Henry and Margaret Crowel, of Frederick County, Md., was born November 8, 1760. Some time, perhaps late in the seventeen hundred and nineties, he moved to Botetourt County, Va., settling there as a farmer. His wife's name was Rachel Smith. Her father owned the "King Salt Works," located in Smythe County, Virginia; later on sold out and moved to Kentucky, where he died. Rachel was Mr. Smith's only child, I believe.
The Records at Frederick, Md., show that Henry and Rachel Crowel, his wife, signed papers there in the year 1807. In 1812 he sold his farm in Botetourt County, Va., and moved to Wythe or Pulaski County County, Va., dying in Pulaski in the year 1857, aged 96 or 97 years. He was a Democrat, farmer and Methodist; in his older years was a cripple, walking with a crutch and cane; rather small in stature. There were born unto Rachel and him, the following sons and daughters: George W., JOHN, William, Joseph, Harry, James, Elizabeth, Polly, Margaret, Rebecca, Ann Marie and by his second wife, Mrs.Anderson, Henry, Eliza and Susan Mary."
Gail Komar indicates that "A LOT OF THIS IS WRONG."
by Gail Komar Crowel Connections
abt 1767 based on his 1850 Census of Pulaski Co., VA (As in previous information this is the only date given in this supposed family Bible). Henry Crowel of Dayton later wrote in his Supplement to "Footprints" that his date of birth was 8 November 1760. We have been unable to verify this date. Family history and "Footprints" give his date of death as 1857. Henry does not appear on the death records of Pulaski Co. He appears on the 1850 Census of Pulaski Co., Va. but is absent from the 1860 Census so the date of 1857 is close, if not a fact. Henry married Rachel "The Supplement to Footprints" stated her maiden name was Smyth/Smith and that her father owned the King Salt Works located in Smythe, Co., VA. and that he later sold out and moved to KY. "The Supplement to Footprints" also stated that Rachel was his only child. We have found no information to verify this in Smythe Co. or Frederick Co., MD.
Henry Crowell
Henry was born about 1767 according to the "supposed" family Bible. His Census records do not disagree with this information. He married before 1787 at Frederick Co., MD to Rachel perhaps Smith/Smythe. We have been unable to prove or disprove her family name. Henry married 2nd on 6 January 1819 at Pulaski Co., VA to Elizabeth McGlocklin/McLaughlin, widow of Charles. Elizabeth Asberry d/o Thomas married Charles McGlocklin on 18 November 1777 at Bedford Co., VA. Henry Crowel died in 1857. Henry appears on the 1850 Census but is not on the 1860 Census. His death does not appear in the death records of Pulaski Co., VA.
On 29 April Margaret Crowell transferred land to her son, Henry. Henry Crowell and Rachel his wife of Taneytown sold to Hugh Hagan a tract of land being part of Bare Garden of 232 acres on 2 May 1791. A bill of sale was done on 8 May 1791. On 7 December 1792 Henry Crowell came to court to get a deed to lot #28 in Tancytown which he had purchased from Hugh Thompson, by having Mary Boyland, daughter of Jacob Good, the original owner to give a release. On 15 April 1795 Henry Crowell and Rachel sold lot #28 in Tancytown to Peter Utz. From Frederick County Indentures comes the following information, "Daniel Shaver, heretofore bound to Henry Crowl, cooper, is with consent of michael Null and Nicholas Lynn guardian of the said Daniel and Conrad Sadler, cooper, for the residue of the term is bound to said Sadler." -- Dated 1 November 1795. This is probably about the time Henry left Frederick Co., MD and moved into Virginia.
Unfortunately there is no 1800 Census of Virginia but Henry Crowle appears on the 1810 Census (roll 66 p. 613) of Botetourt Co., VA. He is not seen on the 1820 Census but appears in 1830 still in Botetourt Co., VA. In 1840 he is found on the Wythe Co., VA Census and in 1850 he is found on the Census of Pulaski Co., VA. Wythe Co., VA was formed in 1790 and Pulaski Co. was formed from Wythe in 1839. This means that Henry moved each time between his appearances on these Census. No Deeds were recorded at the Wythe County Courthouse (LDS Film 0034230 Wythe County Virginia General Index to deeds 1790-1907). However, he did have four deeds recorded in Botetourt Co.: 1800 Deed Book 10 p. 551 Henry Crowl sold land to John Middlecoff: 1809 Deed Book 9 p. 566 Henry Crowl purchased land from George Hancock; 1816 Deed Book 12 p. 210 Henry Crowell sold land to Jacob Fleager but repurchased the land in the same Deed Book 12 on p. 212. There are no deeds recorded in Pulaski Co. for Henry Crowel. It appears that with each move, Henry's fortunes decreased. Pulaski County Virginia Personal Property Tax lists start in 1847. A Henry Crowel appears in the 1848 and 1850 lists paying only $.10 for 1 horse. As Henry's son, Joseph has much more property than this tax payer and is paying a higher tax, this tax paying Henry is most likely the son of Henry and younger brother of Joseph and not the father himself.
"Footprints" fells us that Henry and Elizabeth, his second wife has four children, Anna Mariah, Henry, Jr., Eliza and Susan Mary Crowell. "Footprints" says that Henry Jr. was born between 1819-1823 and listed in Indiana however there is no space for this male on Henry, Sr.'s census records. I have found nothing on him to date. If we accept Anna Mariah's date of birth from "Footprints" as 1814, she would be the daughter of Rachel and not Elizabeth. This date of birth is consistent with Anna Mariah's census records. | Crowell, Henry (I33045)

Henry Fitzhugh
HENRY FITZHUGH was born in 1614 in Bedford, Bedfordshire County, England to William Fitzhugh & Margaret Smith.
Henry married Mary King (daughter of Rev. Giles King) circa 1639 in Bedford, Bedfordshire County, England, and They had NINE children that are known of:
Anne Fitzhugh (1639-?),
Margaret Fitzhugh-[Unknown] (1640-1676),
Susan Fitzhugh-Varney (1642-?),
Mary Fitzhugh (1643-?),
Dorothy Fitzhugh-(M1)Smith-(M2)Luke (1644-1694),
Elizabeth Fitzhugh (1645-1646),
Henry Fitzhugh (1650-?),
William Fitzhugh (1651-1701), and
Thomas Fitzhugh (?-died in London).
Henry was a Woolen Draper by profession. It is documented that he was a Member of the Council 1648 - 1649; the Mayor of Bedford, England in 1649; and served as an Alderman 1650 - 29 September 1665. There was a portrait made of Henry Fitzhugh circa 1634, which ecame part of his son William Fitzhugh's estate, and today is part of the Virginia Historical Society's holdings.
It is said that Henry was in financial disaster in his final years, after a 1658 court ruling, and he left England to live in Cork, Ireland sometime after 5 September 1659 until his death circa September 1666.

Henry II (German: Heinrich; 1112 – 13 January 1177), called Jasomirgott, a member of the House of Babenberg,[1] was Count Palatine of the Rhine from 1140 to 1141, Duke of Bavaria and Margrave of Austria from 1141 to 1156 (as Henry XI), and the first Duke of Austria from 1156 until his death.
Family
Henry was the second son of Margrave Leopold III of Austria, the first from his second marriage with Agnes of Waiblingen, a sister of the last Salian emperor Henry V. Leopold himself was expected to stand as a candidate in the 1125 election as King of the Romans; nevertheless, he renounced in favour of the Hohenstaufen duke Frederick II of Swabia, his half-brother, who eventually lost against Lothair of Supplinburg. Among Henry's younger brother were Bishop Otto of Freising and Conrad II of Salzburg. His sister Judith became the wife of Marquess William V of Montferrat.
Henry's nickname, Jasomirgott, was first documented during the 13th century in the form of Jochsamergott, the meaning of which is unclear. According to one theory, it is derived from a spoofed Arab word bearing a connection to the Second Crusade where Henry participated in 1147. According to a popular etymology, it is derived from the Middle High German form of oath joch sam mir got helfe (meaning: "Yes, so help me God").
Reign
When Margrave Leopold III died in 1136, he was succeeded by his third-born son Leopold IV; probably because Henry already administrated the Rhenish possessions of the extinct Salian dynasty. In April 1140, the Hohenstaufen king Conrad III of Germany enfeoffed him with the County Palatine of the Rhine, which he ruled only for a short time until being appointed Bavarian duke and Margrave of Austria when his younger brother Leopold IV unexpectedly died in October 1141. Leopold had received the Duchy of Bavaria in 1139, after King Conrad had deposed Duke Henry the Proud in the course of the dispute between the Welf and Hohenstaufen dynasties.
Henry took his residence in the Bavarian capital Regensburg (Ratisbon). In May 1142 he married Gertrude of Supplinburg, the daughter of Emperor Lothair and widow of Henry the Proud. She died after less than one year, giving birth to her first child with Henry.
The duke remained a loyal follower of the Hohenstaufens and in May 1147 accompanied King Conrad on the Second Crusade. When they suffered a disastrous defeat at the Battle of Dorylaeum against the Seljuk Turks in October, Henry narrowly escaped together with Conrad's nephew, young Frederick Barbarossa. On their way home, Henry stayed at the court of the Byzantine emperor Manuel I Komnenos, where he married his niece Theodora in late 1148.
Elected King of the Romans in 1152, Frederick Barbarossa tried to reach a compromise with the Welfs and endowed the son of the late Henry the Proud, Henry the Lion, with the Bavarian duchy in 1156. A replacement had to be found for the Babenberg family, namely by the Privilegium Minus, by which Frederick elevated Henry's Margraviate of Austria to a duchy with complete independence from Bavaria.
Unlike his father, who resided in Klosterneuburg most of the time, Henry moved his residence to Vienna in 1145. Only by this act could the modern Austrian capital surpass cities such as Krems, Melk or Klosterneuburg. Since then, it has remained the capital of the country. Also in 1147, the St. Stephen's Church was completed, which became a visible landmark of the city, showing its prominence. In 1155, Henry founded the Schottenstift monastery in Vienna, in the courtyard of which a statue of him stands to this day.
In November 1176, while his Austrian land were campaigned by the forces of Duke Soběslav II of Bohemia, Henry II with his horse fell from a rotten bridge near Melk and suffered a femoral neck fracture. Henry II succumbed to his injuries on 13 January 1177 in Vienna. According to his last will, he was buried in the Schottenstift monastery.
Marriage and children
Until 1143, Henry II was married to Gertrude of Süpplingenburg,[2] the daughter of Emperor Lothair II. In 1148 he married Theodora Komnene,[2] niece of the Byzantine emperor Manuel I. Both marriages are an expression of the importance of the Babenberg dynasty in Central Europe in that period.
Henry had three children by Theodora Komnene:
Agnes of Austria (c. 1154 – 13 January 1182), married to King Stephen III of Hungary, secondly married to Duke Herman of Carinthia[2]
Leopold V, Duke of Austria (1157 – 31 December 1194)[2]
Henry I, Duke of Mödling (1158 – 31 August 1223), married Richeza,[2] daughter of Duke Vladislav II of Bohemia. | Duke of Austria, Heinrich II (I36433)

Henry III (1 October 1207 – 16 November 1272), also known as Henry of Winchester, was King of England, Lord of Ireland, and Duke of Aquitaine from 1216 until his death.[1 ] The son of King John and Isabella of Angoulême, Henry assumed the throne when he was only nine in the middle of the First Barons' War. Cardinal Guala declared the war against the rebel barons to be a religious crusade and Henry's forces, led by William Marshal, defeated the rebels at the battles of Lincoln and Sandwich in 1217. Henry promised to abide by the Great Charter of 1225, which limited royal power and protected the rights of the major barons. His early rule was dominated first by Hubert de Burgh and then Peter des Roches, who re-established royal authority after the war. In 1230, the King attempted to reconquer the provinces of France that had once belonged to his father, but the invasion was a debacle. A revolt led by William Marshal's son, Richard, broke out in 1232, ending in a peace settlement negotiated by the Church.
Following the revolt, Henry ruled England personally, rather than governing through senior ministers. He travelled less than previous monarchs, investing heavily in a handful of his favourite palaces and castles. He married Eleanor of Provence, with whom he had five children. Henry was known for his piety, holding lavish religious ceremonies and giving generously to charities; the King was particularly devoted to the figure of Edward the Confessor, whom he adopted as his patron saint. He extracted huge sums of money from the Jews in England, ultimately crippling their ability to do business, and as attitudes towards the Jews hardened, he introduced the Statute of Jewry, attempting to segregate the community. In a fresh attempt to reclaim his family's lands in France, he invaded Poitou in 1242, leading to the disastrous Battle of Taillebourg. After this, Henry relied on diplomacy, cultivating an alliance with Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor. Henry supported his brother Richard in his bid to become King of the Romans in 1256, but was unable to place his own son Edmund on the throne of Sicily, despite investing large amounts of money. He planned to go on crusade to the Levant, but was prevented from doing so by rebellions in Gascony.
By 1258, Henry's rule was increasingly unpopular, the result of the failure of his expensive foreign policies and the notoriety of his Poitevin half-brothers, the Lusignans, as well as the role of his local officials in collecting taxes and debts. A coalition of his barons, initially probably backed by Eleanor, seized power in a coup d'état and expelled the Poitevins from England, reforming the royal government through a process called the Provisions of Oxford. Henry and the baronial government enacted a peace with France in 1259, under which Henry gave up his rights to his other lands in France in return for King Louis IX recognising him as the rightful ruler of Gascony. The baronial regime collapsed but Henry was unable to reform a stable government and instability across England continued.
In 1263, one of the more radical barons, Simon de Montfort, seized power, resulting in the Second Barons' War. Henry persuaded Louis to support his cause and mobilised an army. The Battle of Lewes occurred in 1264, where Henry was defeated and taken prisoner. Henry's eldest son, Edward, escaped from captivity to defeat de Montfort at the Battle of Evesham the following year and freed his father. Henry initially enacted a harsh revenge on the remaining rebels, but was persuaded by the Church to mollify his policies through the Dictum of Kenilworth. Reconstruction was slow and Henry had to acquiesce to various measures, including further suppression of the Jews, to maintain baronial and popular support. Henry died in 1272, leaving Edward as his successor. He was buried in Westminster Abbey, which he had rebuilt in the second half of his reign, and was moved to his current tomb in 1290. Some miracles were declared after his death; however, he was not canonised. | Plantagenet, Henry III (I36898)

Henry is found at Nailemith Monthly Meeting in Gloucestershire, England. On March 16, 1677, Henry left London on the ship Kent with 230 passengers intent to establish a new colony in the New World. Kent landed first in New York and then headed to Perth Amboy and onto the Delaware River. They arrived June 23 1678 in the Quaker Colony of West Jersey, Burlington township. Also on board the Kent were Thomas Eaves and Thomas Harding. In 1684, Henry located 262 acres at the Vale of Eavesham - now in Burlington County, New Jersey. This land is still known as Ballenger Farm. In 1684, Henry, the husbandman of North River, and Mary Harding of Burlington were married in Eavesham.
In 1697, 40 Quakers, including Henry, signed the New Jersey General Assembly Agreement to support the king. Henry was appointed special tax collector in 1701.
Upon his death, Henry left his son Amoriah Ballenger, the house and the lands. His other children were left anywhere from five shillings to twenty pounds.
His will dated August 3 1727 was probated October 4 1733.[Much of actual source data supporting this has been deleted for reasons unknown.] Emma Barrett Reeves, Three Centuries of the Ballingers in America,p. xxi: "...That Henry had earned for himself a reputation for industry and integrity is proved by the fact that he was elected to the Assembly in 1697, and in May 1701 he was appointed social tax collector for his hometown of Evesham."

According to family tradition there were five Ballinger brothers in France, one of whom was burned at the stake and one hanged during the persecutions of the Huguenots. The remaining brothers came to America in 1678. One settled in Virginia, one inPennsylvania and the third, Henry Ballinger, progenitor of the familyin Burlington County, settled in Evesham Township not far from the village of Evesboro. : Henry Ballinger married Mary Harding on Ninth month 4th, 1684. : A return of survey dated Fourth month, 1684, shows that 262 acres were surveyed for Henry Bailinger "at the Vale of Easham." This farm was located on the road leading from Evesboro to Medford about one and one-half miles east of the former village and is still known locally asthe Ballinger farm. Although Henry and Mary Ballinger settled on thistract they apparently lived on the Rancocas for a year or two at least after their marriage.

Henry Lee III (29 January 1756 – 25 March 1818) was an early American patriot who served as the ninth Governor of Virginia and as the Virginia Representative to the United States Congress. During the American Revolution, Lee served as a cavalry officer in the Continental Army and earned the name Light Horse Harry. He was also the father of Confederate general Robert E. Lee.
Lee was born near Dumfries, Virginia, the son of Henry Lee II (1730–1787) of "Leesylvania" and Lucy Grymes (1734–1792) the "Lowland Beauty." His father was first cousin once removed to Richard Henry Lee, sixth President of the Continental Congress. His mother was an aunt of the wife of Virginia Governor Thomas Nelson Jr. His great-grandmother Mary Bland was a great-aunt of President Thomas Jefferson and he descended once from King John of England, twice from King Edward I of England, once from King Jean de Brienne of Jerusalem, twice from King Edward III of England and once from King Pedro I of Castile.
Lee graduated from the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University) in 1773, and began pursuing a legal career. With the outbreak of the Revolutionary War, he became a Captain in a Virginia dragoon detachment, which was attached to the 1st Continental Light Dragoons. In 1778, Lee was promoted to Major and given the command of a mixed corps of cavalry and infantry known as Lee's Legion, with which he won a great reputation as a leader of light troops. It was during his time as commander of the Legion that Lee earned the sobriquet of "Light Horse Harry" for his horsemanship. Lee was presented a gold medal–a reward given to no other officer below a general's rank– for the Legion's actions during the Battle of Paulus Hook in New Jersey, on 19 August 1779.
Lee was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel and was assigned with his Legion to the southern theater of war. Lee's forces served at the Battle of Guilford Court House, the Battle of Camden and the Battle of Eutaw Springs. He was present at Cornwallis's surrender at Yorktown, but left the Army shortly after due to an illness. During the infamous Whiskey Rebellion, Lee commanded the 13,000 militiamen sent to quash the rebels.
Between 8-13 April 1782, at "Stratford Hall", Lee married his second cousin, Matilda Ludwell Lee (1764-1790), who was known as "The Divine Matilda". Matilda was the daughter of the Hon. Philip Ludwell Lee, Sr., Esq. and Elizabeth Steptoe. Matilda had three children before she died in 1790;
• Philip Lee (1784-1794)
• Lucy Lee (1786-1860)
• Henry Lee IV (28 May 1787 — 30 January 1837), was a historian and author who also served as a speech writer for both John C. Calhoun and presidential candidate Andrew Jackson, also helping the latter to write his inaugural address.
On 13 June 1793, Lee married the wealthy Anne Hill Carter (1773-1829) at Shirley Plantation. Anne was the daughter of Charles Carter, Esq., of Shirley, and his wife Ann Butler Moore. She was also a descendant of King Robert II of Scotland through the 2nd Earls of Crawford. They had six children, the eldest died unnamed in infancy in 1796;
• Unnamed Infant (1796-1796)
• Charles Carter Lee (1798-1871)
• Anne Kinloch Lee (1800-1864)
• Sydney Smith Lee (1802-1869)
• Robert Edward Lee (19 January 1807 — 12 October 1870), the fifth child of Henry and Anne, served as a Confederate general during the American Civil War.
• Mildred Lee (1811-1856)
From 1786 to 1788, Lee was a delegate to the Continental Congress, and in the last-named year in the Virginia convention, he favored the adoption of the United States Constitution. From 1789 to 1791, he served in the General Assembly and, from 1791 to 1794, was Governor of Virginia.
In 1794, Lee accompanied Washington to help the suppression of the Whiskey Rebellion in western Pennsylvania. A new county of Virginia was named after him during his governorship. Henry Lee was a major general in the U.S. Army in 1798–1800. From 1799 to 1801, he served in the United States House of Representatives of the Congress. He famously eulogized Washington to a crowd of 4,000 at the first President's funeral on December 26, 1799 —"first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen."
The Panic of 1796-1797 and bankruptcy of Robert Morris reduced Lee's fortune.
On 27 July 1812, Lee received grave injuries while helping to resist an attack on his friend, Alexander Contee Hanson, editor of the Baltimore newspaper, The Federal Republican. Hanson was attacked by Democratic-Republican mob because his paper opposed the War of 1812. Lee and Hanson and two dozen other Federalists had taken refuge in the offices of the paper. The group surrendered to Baltimore city officials the next day and were jailed. Laborer George Woolslager led a mob that forced its way into the jail and removed and beat the Federalists over the next three hours. One Federalist, James Lingan, died.
Lee suffered extensive internal injuries as well as head and face wounds, and even his speech was affected. Lee later sailed to the West Indies in an effort to recuperate from his injuries. He died on 25 March 1818, at Dungeness, on Cumberland Island, Georgia.
Lee was buried with full military honors provided by an American fleet stationed near St. Marys. In 1913 his remains were removed to the Lee family crypt at Lee Chapel, on the campus of Washington & Lee University in Lexington, Virginia. | Lee, Henry III (I43278)

Herbert was the son of Herbert I of Vermandois.[1] He was apparently well aware of his descent from Charlemagne.[2] Herbert inherited the domain of his father and in 907, added to it the Abbey of St. Medard, Soissons. He took the position of Lay abbot entitling him to the income of those estates.[1] His marriage with a daughter of king Robert I of France brought him the County of Meaux.[3]
In 922, when Seulf became Archbishop of Rheims, in an effort to appease Herbert II Seulf solemnly promised him he could nominate his successor.[4] In 923, Count Herbert took the bold step of imprisoning King Charles III, who died still a captive in 929.[a][3] Then, on the death of Seulf in 925, with the help of King Rudolph, he acquired for his second son Hugh (then five years old) the archbishopric of Rheims.[5] Herbert took the additional step of sending emissaries to Rome to Pope John X to gain his approval, which that pope gave in 926.[4] On his election young Hugh was sent to Auxerre to study.[2]
In 926, on the death of Count Roger I of Laon. Herbert demanded this countship for Eudes, his eldest son.[6] He took the town in defiance of King Rudolph leading to a clash between the two in 927.[2] Using the threat of releasing King Charles III, whom he held captive, Herbert managed to hold the city for four more years.[2] But after the death of Charles in 929, Rudolph again attacked Laon in 931 successfully defeating Herbert.[2] The same year the king entered Rheims and defeated archbishop Hugh, the son of Herbert.[7] Artaud became the new archbishop of Reims.[7] Herbert II then lost, in three years, Vitry, Laon, Château-Thierry, and Soissons.[8] The intervention of his ally, Henry the Fowler, allowed him to restore his domains (except Rheims and Laon) in exchange for his submission to King Rudolph.
Later Herbert allied with Hugh the Great and William Longsword, duke of Normandy against King Louis IV, who allocated the County of Laon to Roger II, the son of Roger I, in 941. Herbert and Hugh the Great took back Rheims and captured Artaud.[9] Hugh, the son of Herbert, was restored as archbishop.[9] Again the mediation of the German King Otto I in Visé, near Liège, in 942 allowed for the normalization of the situation.
Death and legacy
Herbert II died on 23 February 943 at Saint-Quentin, Aisne (the capital of the county of Vermandois).[1] His vast estates and territories were divided among his sons.[10] Vermandois and Amiens went to the two elder sons while Robert and Herbert, the younger sons, were given the valuable holdings scattered throughout Champagne.[10] On Robert's death his brother's son Herbert III inherited them all. Herbert III's only son Stephen died childless in 1019–20 thus ending the male line of Herbert II.[10]
Family
Herbert married Adele, daughter of Robert I of France.[11] Together they had the following children:
Eudes of Vermandois, Count of Amiens and of Vienne, (c. 910–946)[1]
Adalbert I, Count of Vermandois (c. 915–987), married Gerberge of Lorraine[1]
Adela of Vermandois (910–960), married 934 Count Arnulf I of Flanders[1]
Herbert 'the Old' (c. 910–980), Count of Omois, Meaux and Troyes, and abbot of St. Medard, Soissons, married 951 Eadgifu of Wessex daughter of Edward the Elder King of England and widow of Charles III King of France.[b][1]
Sprota Adele de Senlis (913–945), captive of William I, Duke of Normandy;[1] and fathered Richard I, Duke of Normandy.
Robert of Vermandois, Count of Meaux and Châlons († 967)[1]
Luitgarde of Vermandois (c. 915–978), married 940 William I, Duke of Normandy;[1] married secondly, c. 943–44, Theobald I of Blois[c][12] Their son was Odo I, Count of Blois.[10]
Hugh of Vermandois (920–962), Archbishop of Reims[1]
Guy I, Count of Soissons (d. 986).[13]
Notes
King Charles was the godfather to one of Herbert II's sons. See: Rodulfus Glaber, The Five Books of the Histories, ed. & trans. John France (Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1989), pp. 12–13 n. 1.
Herbert 'the Old', Count of Meux the son of Herbert II is sometimes confused with his nephew, Herbert III, Count of Meux and Troyes, son of Robert Count of Meux. It was Herbert 'the Old' who married Eadgifu of Wessex in 951, his nephew Herbert III wasn't born until c. 950. See ES III/1, 49; K. Norgate, 'Odo of Champagne', EHR 5, 19 (Jul. 1890), 488.
It was Hugh the Great who, taking advantage of the youth of Herbert II's successor, gave William Longwsord's widow, Luitgarde to his own vassal Theobald 'the Deceiver', count of Blois. But Glaber mistakenly credited Duke William's murder to Theobald 'the Deceiver' instead of Arnulf of Flanders. See: Rodulfus Glaber, The Five Books of the Histories, ed. & trans. John France (Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1989), pp. 164–5, n. 2. | Count of Vermandois, Herbert II (I36658)
