I am thanks be to god, from whom we enjoy all we have in peace settled here, but how long this will continue I know not for there is at present a Counsel against me at London, which arrived there that very day in the evening upon which I despatched my business. What he intendeth or can do against me, is not for me to imagine. Yet I am confident that truth will defend its self, at the hardest, against falsehood. I deserve no ill, and therefore to wish any were of an abj Yet if it were not over much boldness in me, or too much trouble to your Worship I should desire you would be pleased to go, or send your man to Mr Felps (Phelps) the Clarke of this Committee, where my business lyeth, who liveth at the widow white's house in the Whitefriars to inquire if anything be ordered, or complaint made against me: and so to send me word by the next return of the post, which cometh out of London on Sabbath day next in the evening.

| 4008 | Lewis Burwell 1621-1653 Lewis Burwell 1621-1653 Lewis Burwell was born to Edward and Dorothy (Bedell)Burwell in Harlington, County Bedford, England. His mother's brothers,Gabriell and John Bedell, were members of the Virginia Company and came toJamestown with the Second Supply in 1608. After the death of his father, his mother had marriedRoger Wingate. In October 1633 Wingate and Edward Kingswell arrived inJamestown aboard the ship Mayflower with a plan to create a settlement inCarolina. Finding that their promised transportation to Carolina was notyet available, they remained at Jamestown through the winter until early springwhen they decided to give up the project. In March Wingate left with hisfamily and returned to England and Kingswell followed in June. They shouldhave been more patient, for the promised ship arrived in July. Lewis Burwell arrived at Jamestown about 1640 - a timewhen the original first generation had failed to carry their leadership over tothe next generation. The new immigration of 1640, of which Burwell and hisbrothers were a part would give to Virginia the progenitors of her greateighteenth-century families. Roger Wingate, Burwell's stepfather, was the residuarylegatee of the land for which his now deceased partner, Kingwell, had claimed bythe headright system. Wingate did not immediately claim the land to whichhe was entitled until the spring of 1648. 2300 acres were granted jointlyto Burwell and Thomas Vause on the "lower part in Yorke River about 7 miles upthe Narrow on the South side thereof". In the summer of the same yearBurwell claimed the headrights he inherited form his stepfather, he received2350 acres "lying upon the North Side of York River up Rosewell Creek on theSouthward side thereof" for the transportation of forty-seven persons. This was the largest patent issued in 1648. Nevertheless, the estate could not have been so large asto have guaranteed Burwell and his descendants a position ofundisputed eminence in the colony. But while everything did notproceed smoothly, he appears to have been a hard worker who devoted much of hisefforts to the acquisition of land. His landholdings expandedrapidly, and in 1650, for the transportation of thirty-two persons, he received1600 acres in Northumberland County "upon the South side of Potomeck River andEast side of Machotick River". The next day he was alloted 500 acres -this time on the "South side of Potomeck River upon West side of NomenyRiver". Two years later, in October, 200 acres "100 acres of which lyeswithin the Pallisade at the Middle plantation...the other with out thePallisade" were granted to "Major Lewis Burwell and Lucy, his wife". When he died in 1653, he had been in Virginia for lessthan fifteen years. | Burwell, Lewis II (I43405)

| 4011 | Lexington & Vicinity - The Kentucky River Sun 25th We entered and passed thro Lexington the boast and pride of the Kentuckians It is an agreeable town pleasantly situated in a thriving condition and a place of considerable trade In the afternoon I arrived at my brother's and had the satisfaction of finding him and his family in health. Mon 26th Was called to attend the funeral of a Mrs Moddis who is said to have feared God from her youth She died yesterday about 1 o clock leaving a husband and children to bewail her loss My brother requested me to preach which I did to a considerable number of people who were collected on the occasion Fri 30th I went to Mr John Watkins in Woodford county attended by my brother and sister Frances I was greatly pleased with Mr Watkins settlement The situation is beautiful land fertile water good and air healthy These blessings with a contented mind are an inestimable treasure But alas where is the man that enjoys all these favors at once and the same time Sat 3lst We walked to Mr Henry Watkins and saw there several old friends and acquaintances and returned in the evening to Mr John Watkins Sun Nov 1st I went with Mr Watkins to a meeting house and heard Mr John Dupuy preach a good discourse After he concluded he requested me to preach I did so from Rev 3 etc The people heard with seriousness and the deepest attention while I pointed out the danger of apostacy and the blessed effects of perseverance After preaching I called and took dinner with Stephen Trabeu Mr Dupuy and a number of other old friends and acquaintances making up our company I then proceeded to Edward Trabeu's and spent the evening Mon 2nd Here for the first time I see the Kentucky river and the inaccessible cliffs that appear on both sides of it The bed of the river which I suppose cannot be less than 300 feet below the tops of these enormous banks appears like a gutter cut to a vast depth by the water during a long course of time from the tops of these banks or as they are more usually called cliffs the sand goes off level and after getting a little from the river are amazingly rich I left Mr Trabeu's after breakfast dined at Mr Adams and then proceeded to Mr John Moss whose kindness to me while traveling to this country once before still fills my heart with gratitude Tues 3rd I went to Lexington where were a vast number of people collected to see a poor felon executed Here I met with my brother and accompanied him home Wed 4th I set out on a journey to the south side of Kentucky forded the river passed thro part of Mercer and Lincoln counties and reached John Bryant's in the evening Thurs 5th Mr Bryant rode with me to Capt Owsley's in Madison county But instead of that cheerfulness that once characterized this family I found that grief had erected her standard here This was owing to the horrid and criminal conduct of a Mr Gouge a son in law of Capt Owsley's who a few days before had killed a man and for which atrocious act he is now confined in Frankfort jail and will probably suffer the punishment which his crime deserves The man murdered had discharged an innocent slave which Gouge intended to flog This was a crime too great for Gouge's boisterous temper to put up with He therefore discharged a rifle at the man the contents of which passing thro his knee caused his death 15 days later Fri 6th I visited Wm Bryant where I wrote several letters to my family and friends expecting to have a ready conveyance by Mr Douglas's who intends to go to Richmond But how great was my disappointment when I called at Mr Douglass and found that he had started the day before It would have been a great gratification to me to have contrived a letter to them but must await another conveyance Sat 7th I returned to Capt Owsley's and preached in the evening to a small but attentive congregation from Rev 22 17 Sun 8th I had appointed to preach at the meeting house on Sugar creek but was prevented by the rain In the evening I returned to Mr John Bryant's. | Smith, George Stokes Stovall (I51881)

| 4014 | Life of Rev Jonathan He was the fifth child of Deacon John and Abigail Dunahm and was born in Plymouth in 1632 and died Dec 18, 1717. At an early date he became a missionary among the Indians, along the coast of Massachusetts, going as far north as Saco, Maine. In 1659 he went to Marth'as Vineyar and in 1694 he was ordained at Edgartown by Elder Gibson. He was a reasident of Plymouth ,Eastham and Middleboro, and an owner of real estated. In 1673 he was constable for Middleboro; in 1675 selectman; in 1689 deputy to the general court. He married first Mary De La Noye, daughter of Philip and Hester D Delano on 9 November 1655. She came over in "The Fortune" in 1621. Delano was a diret ancestor of President U.S. Grant. He married a second time to Mary Cobb, b 24 March 1637, the daughter of Elder Henry Cobb who came from England in 1629. Their children were Danie, Jonathan, Eleazer, Gershom, Samuel and Hannah.

| 4016 | Like his father, Thomas, Roger Bruce was a miller, and he inherited some of his father's mills. He later bought another corn mill from James Taylor situated on Stony Brook. The records sometimes called Roger "husbandman", which indicates he must have had a farm to supplement his livelihood in addition to the mills. Roger's parents, Thomas and Magdalen and brother David are also mentioned in these records. Roger signed deeds, Elizabeth signed by mark. Suring the French and Indian War, in 1711, Roger Bruce and Isaac Woods were assigned to Jonathan Newton's garrison in Marlboro. In another record Roger stated that his dwelling house was on the easterly side of Stony Brook. He and fortynine others, representing their families, petitioned the General Court to set off the Stony Brook area as a seperate town because the house of public worship in Marlborough was at too great a distance too travel each week. The Court consented, and on July 6, 1727 the town of Southborough was established. The town was originally in Middlesex County but fell within Worcester County when that county was established in 1731. Thus land deeds of the town are found in both counties. No marriage record for Roger and Elizabeth has been found, but Katherine Fahey was able to discover Elizabeth's maiden name through another source. On june 24, 1715 Samuel forbush mentioned his " Kinsman Abijah Bruce" in a deed. Abijah was the son of Roger. The connection between Samuel and Abijah was made clear by the April 27, 1746 entry in Rev. Ebenezer Parkman's diary. "On the Occasion of The Death of my Honoured Mother and Several Bereavments (Ex. gr. Captain Forbush amd Mrs Byles mourn for the loss of their sister Bruce and Ensign Bruce and Mrs Miller the loss of their Mother;...) Captain Samuel Forbush and Rebecca (Forbush) Byles, wife of Joseph Byles, were the children of Daniel Forbush. They had only one sister, and she was named Elizabeth, for whom no marriage record exists. The other two named persons in the entry, Ensign Abijah Bruce and Sarah (Bruce) Miller, wife of James Miller, were the children of Roger Bruce and his wife Elizabeth. Elizabeth (Forbush) Bruce obviously died toward the end of April 1746. The vital records of Southborough give the date of Roger's death as Sept. 16, 1733, but since he signed his will on December 8, 1733 and the heirs agreed to the terms of the will on December 25 of that year, the correct date would most likely be December 16 rather than September 16. | Bruce, Roger (I1230)

| 4017 | Like much of eastern Virginia, the site of Colonial Heights was located within the Algonquian-speaking confederation known as Tenakomakah, ruled by Chief Powhatan, when the English colonists arrived at Jamestown on May 14, 1607. Captain John Smith's early map of Virginia testifies that the present area of Colonial Heights included the principal town of the Appamattuck subtribe, led by their weroance, Coquonasum, and his sister, Oppussoquionuske. In the aftermath of the Indian attacks of 1622 and 1644, they became tributary to England and relocated to nearby Ettrick, and its opposite bank, near Fort Henry (within modern-day Petersburg, Virginia). The area including present-day Colonial Heights was made a part of "Henrico Cittie", one of 4 huge "incorporations" formed in the Virginia Colony in 1619 by the London Company. English colonists first settled in the Colonial Heights area in 1620. A small group sailed up the Appomattox River looking for clear land, and finally settled in an area where Swift Creek runs into the Appomattox River, which they named Conjurer's Neck. This confluence was formerly the residence a Native American healer (known as a "conjurer") who was thought to have cast spells over the waters. Shortly thereafter, Charles Magnor registered the first land patent in the area for 650 acres (2.6 km2), which he later developed into a plantation before selling it in 1634. That same year, by order of King Charles I of England, the Virginia Colony was divided into the 8 original shires of Virginia by the House of Burgesses, one of which was Henrico County, which included the future land of Colonial Heights. In 1635, the English had a small town called Appamattucks near the "Old Towne" Creek,[5] thought to be located near the intersection of Temple Avenue and Dimmock Parkway.[6] Also in that year, Captain Henry Fleet and Francis Poythress built a small fort nearby, on "Fleet's Hill" just west of the current city, now occupied by the campus of Virginia State University. During the period from 1677 to 1685, one of the area's historic landmarks was constructed with the building of the Old Brick House. Richard Kennon came to Virginia prior to 1670, and became a merchant of Bermuda Hundred. He represented Henrico County in the House of Burgesses. His son, Richard Kennon, Jr., was also a member of the House of Burgesses and married the daughter of Col. Robert Bolling, the emigrant, and his second wife, the former Anne Stith. Richard's sister, Mary Kennon, was married to Major John Fairfax Bolling, half-brother of Richard's wife. Major Bolling was the son of Col. Robert Bolling and his first wife Jane Rolfe, who was granddaughter of the early colonist John Rolfe and his Native American wife, Pocahontas. The Bollings lived at Cobb's, a plantation in eastern Chesterfield near Point-of-Rocks. The manor house built by Richard Kennon (later known as the "Brick House") is now thought to be the oldest permanent structure in Colonial Heights. One wall of the house survived a disastrous fire in 1879, and the rest was rebuilt. [3] | Kennon, John Samuel (I33265)

She married Daniel Pleasant Moon, on November 11, 1850, in Campbell County, Virginia. Before her death, reported in the "The Religious Herald," on January 21, 1864, she gave birth to 11 children, including two sets of twins. Her burial location is unknown, but is most likely on the farm where Daniel P Moon is buried, near Straightstone, Virginia. She was a member of Straightstone Baptist Church, but no stone has ever been found there. She died during or soon after the the birth of the couple's last child, Lillie Grace, on January 21, 1864, while her husband was at war. Her death was listed in "The Religious Herald," published by the Baptist Convention, as "Lilly A., the wife of Daniel P. Moon, January 21, 1864."

| 4030 | Lionel Branch Birth: Aug. 18, 1556 Berkshire, England Death: 1605 London Greater London, England Lionel Branch was born at Abingdon-on-Thames in Berkshire which claims to be Britain's oldest continuously occupied town, with people having lived there for at least 6,000 years. He was the third son of William and Catherine (Jennings) Branch. On 02 Jul 1585, he matriculated Magdalen College of Oxford University as a commoner, and graduated 11 Feb 1590. Lionel Branch and his wife, Valentina Sparke, were married 08 July 1596 at St. Martin, Ludgate, in the city of London ("Leonell Branch of London gent. and Valentia Sparke of St. Martin Ludgate said city, spinster, daughter of "____ " Sparke late of said city, draper, deceased, gen. lic., 7 Jul 1596."). Their only child was Christopher Branch (b. Abt. 1602 Greater London, Middlesex, England, d. 1680 Henrico VA). Valentina Sparke was born circa 1575 in London, Middlesex, England and died circa 1610 of unspecified causes. After his marriage, he and his wife returned to Abingdon and all trace of him was lost. He died intestate. From all accounts, Lionel was the "black sheep" of the family. Called "my unthrifty and disobedient son" in his father's (William Branch) will and bequeathed merely "my black gown". Obviously, no love was lost between Lionel and his older brother, Thomas, either. Thus when Thomas made his will in 1603 he bequeathed nothing to Lionel and willed the valuable Bull Inn property of Abingdon to his brother-in-law, Robert Payne. William Branch, the younger brother of Lionel still at Oxford, felt that the natural male heirs of William Branch should inherit the Bull Inn and accordingly brought suit to upset the will, the cause being decided in favor of Robert Payne in February of 1603-4. Christopher Branch, the only son of Lionel Branch, returned briefly from his home in Henrico, Co., VA to Abingdon in 1632 with the same goal of having the ownership of the Bull Inn of Abingdon invalidated by a court suit. He was also unsuccessful. | Branch, Lionel (I46772)

| 4031 | LIONEL BRANCH (WILLIAM4, RICHARD3, JOHN2, JOHN1) was born 18 August 1566 in St. Helens Church Abington, Berkshire, England1, and died 1605 in London, England. He married VALENTIA SPARK/E/S 08 July 1596 in Ludgate, London, England2, daughter of LUDGATE SPARKS. She was born Abt. 1576, and died in England. Notes for LIONEL BRANCH: Lionel Branch was born in 1566 in London and died 1605 in England. He married Valentia Sparkes July 7, 1596 in St. Martins, Ludgate, London, England. Lionel Branch was baptized at St. Helen Church on August 18, 1566. That he was something of a black sheep or, more charitable, a prodigal son, is evident from the terms of his father's will, in which he is castigated as "my unthrifty and disobedient sonne," to whom only a black gown and his father's best cloak was left. Lionel entered Magdalen College, Oxford, in 1585, as a commoner, matriculating on July 2 in that year, proceeded to his B.A. on February 11, 1590/1, and was a demy of Magdalen between 1585 and 1593, after which he must have gone to London. Lionel must have prospered, for on July 8, 1596, at St Martin, Ludgate, in the City of London, distinguished by the status of "gentleman," he married Valentia Sparkes, the daughter of ______ Sparkes, deceased, formerly a draper, of the City of London. By her, apparently, he had only one son, Christopher, who was provided for in his grandfather's will by a bequest of five marks on his attaining eighteen years of age. Lionel appears never to have returned to his native town and after his marriage, all trace of him is lost. Neither record of his burial nor of his will have been found. (Branch of Abingdon: A Revision by Peter Walne, Genealogies of Virginia Families -From the Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, Vol. 1, p. 219) Child of LIONEL BRANCH and VALENTIA SPARK/E/S is: 2. i.

| 4032 | Listed among slave owners in Spotsylvania county in 1783 are: VincentVass (2), Mary Vass (3) and Rice Vass (3). The name Vincent Vass appears in Francis Jerdone's account book for his King & Queen County store (he was a leading merchant who established a chain of stores). The date of these accounts is 1750-1751. Also in the Jerdone papers are letters which reference a Mrs. Ann Vass who is in dire need for money. Jerdone and his partners advise their clerks to advance Mrs. Ann Vass whatever she needs until the estate of herson, William Johnson, can be settled. I get the impression that her son was wealthy and that Jerdone was somehow involved in the estate. Following item can be found in the North Carolina Genealogical Society Journal, Vol. IV, page 220 (1978). It comes from the British Records Collection at the N.C. State Archives, Raleig, Stack/File 77.2518.4(Treasury Series T 79/94, Reports of Wm. Hening, Special Agent UnitedStates relative to British Debts. 27 October 1800 Vincent Vass (of Spotsylvania County, VA) L23.15.8 owed Robert Jardine 'Vincent Vass has experienced a greater variet of fortune than any other man in Virginia. From some short time before this debt was contracted 'till his death, he had married 9 wives. No sooner was he ever marr'd than he spent his wife's [estate] & become insolvent. He died lately in the Penitentiary House in this State to whick Place he was sentenced to sevl yrs confinmt [several years confinement] for killing his ninth & last wife. He resided in the Coty [County] of Spotsa [Spotsylvania]'till about the year 1789 then for some yrs in the Coty [County] of Caroline & lastly in the Co ty of Halifax in this State. He has been solvent & insolvent so often that I find it impossble [impossible] to fix any particular dates to his various lives.' CAPT. BENJ. WINSLOW, GOODRICK & GRASSLEY of Orange Co. EDWD. HERNDON of Spotsa County. Incidentally, the Robert Jardine mentioned in this item was a merchant in Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania County, VA. He is mentioned in two notices in the Virginia Gazette. In the first of January 10, 1775 he notes he is personally overseeing his business in Fredericksburg formerly managed by Mr. George Mitchell. In a note of February 1, 1776 he announces the following: 'I intend to London in a very short Time, and have appointed mr. James Somerville, Merchant of this Place [Fredericksburg], my lawful Attorney, properly authorized to receive and discharge all Debts due me; and I beg that all those who are indebted to my Store will pay the same, and all those who are indebted by Notes, or open Accounts, are requested to come and pay, or reduce them into Bonds till it is more convenient to discharge them. Take Notice, I am the Principal for whom the late George Mitchell was Factor many Years.' Signed Robert Jardine. | Vass, Vincent (I22359)

| 4033 | Little is known of John Davis (I) and Mary Green other than a few basic facts from the LDS Family History Library in Salt Lake City. John Davis (I) was born in Gravesend, Kent, England in 1610. His parents are said to have been James Davis and Rachel (unknown maiden name) of England. He married Mary Green, who was born in 1615 in Mentmore, Buckingham, England. Mary’s parents are believed to have been Thomas Green, born about 1584, and Mary Jane Moore, born about 1588, both of England. John and Mary were married about 1637 in Gravesend, Kent, England. They emigrated to the colony of Virginia, county of Isle of Wight, in 1648. Their children are believed to have been: Elizabeth Davis, born about 1637 in England Thomas Davis, born about 1644 in Virginia John Davis (II), born about 1648 in Virginia, married Sarah Watts William Davis, born about 1650 in Virginia Both John and Mary died in Newport Parish, Isle of Wight Co., Virginia. | Davis, John (I721)

| 4035 | Lived in Amelia County in 1737 when it was cut off from Prince George County. On 16 October 1744 he bought from his brother, William Echols, 420 acres in Raleigh Parish of Amelia County next to the mouth of Stocks Creek and lying along the Appomattox River. Amelia County appointed him a surveyor of the land along the Appomattox River from Lovells Mill to Clements Mill in June 1745. [Amelia County Court Order Book 1, page 321A] Clements Mill belonged to William Clement. John lived at the river until 16 June 1749 when he sold this land, including his home, to Samuel Overton of St. Martin’s Parish, Hanover County, Virginia, for £150. The deed acknowledged that John Echols was moving. John died in 1751 in Beaufort County, North Carolina. | Echols, John (I2056)

| 4036 | Lived in the Pittston District, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. July 14, 1777, Isaac Finch purchased a mill seat on the Lackawanna River, from a committee of proprietors consisting of Abraham Harding, Daniel Cass and Isaiah Halstead. (The purchase amount was £130.) On February 12, 1790 a portion of this same land was sold by Isaac Finch to Dr, William Hooker Smith, witnessed by Jesse Gardner and John Davidson. On July 3, 1778, at the time of the Wyoming Valley Massacre, Isaac Finch and family were said to have been in Pittston Fort (also known as "Fort Brown") which was located on the east side of the Susquehanna river. Per page 79 of "Historical Map of PA.", (published in 1875) Captain Jeremiah Blanchard commanded at Fort Brown where Isaac Finch was listed (among others) as an inmate. This account negates claims that Isaac was in Forty Fort, (on the west side of the Susquehanna river), during the battle. It is further believed that following the battle, Isaac Finch and family retreated to Orange County New York, where they took shelter with relatives residing there. On the day of the Wyoming Valley Massacre, Isaac Finch was considered a "defender" of Fort Brown, which according to DAR standards, qualifies him as having performed "Patriotic Service", though not "Military Service". In addition, after having relocated to New York, Isaac Finch is said to have provided monetary donations toward the war effort, which by DAR standards, also qualifies as an act of "Patriotic Service". Isaac Finch is believed to have died abt. 1790 in Wyoming Valley, Pittston Township, Luzerne County, PA. Quit claim dated February 16, 1790, deeds a portion of (deceased) Isaac Finch's mill seat from Samuel Finch of Kingston, Luzerne Co., Pennsylvania to William Hooker Smith Esquire. On December 12, 1792, son, Isaac Kinney Finch was appointed administrator of (this) Isaac Finch's estate. On March 29, 1793 the estate of Isaac Finch was officially closed, after a portion of the deceased Isaac's mill seat property was sold to son, Moses Finch of Minisink, New York. The burial site of Isaac Finch is to date, unknown. Note: Counter to the above, family sources indicate that Isaac Finch did indeed die July 3, 1778 in the Wyoming Valley Massacre, though though there is no official documentation to support this claim, nor is Isaac Finch's name included on the battle monument along Route 11, in Luzerne County, PA. Per "Flowing Stream" by Florence Finch Kelley, (page 5); "... dates from 1778 and the Valley of the Wyoming, where then were living Isaac Finch, my great-grandfather, and his brother John and their families. They were both fighting with the Colonial troops and both were killed in the massacre when the prosperous little colony was attacked and ravaged by British and Indian forces, its inhabitants slaughtered, its homes burned, and those who were able to make their escape did so only by instant flight." (page 6) "...Amy Kinney, wife of Isaac, who, knowing that her husband had been killed in the massacre and that the only safety for their children was in immediate escape, hurriedly bundled into a wagon her household goods and her nine sons, among them the six- months-old Solomon, who became my grandfather, and joined the flight of the few remaining colonists. They drove across country to the Finger Lakes region in central New York, where lived other Finches." Per "Biographical And Reminiscent History Of Richland Clay And Marion Counties, Illinois 1909" (page 212); "On the 4th day of July, 1778, Amy Finch, The widow of Isaac Finch, with the aid of faithful servants, loaded her household effects into a wagon drawn by a pair of oxen, and with all the children, excepting Isaac Finch and Amy Finch, who were visiting in Massachusetts, prepared to fly from the recent scene of the bloody carnival. As the wagon was about to pull out, with all the household goods and children, a number of Indians seeing one of the servants standing by the wagon, with savage yells and flourishing tomahawks, dashed out his brains, bespattering with blood and brains, the five-months-old baby of the deceased Isaac Finch and his widow, who was lying upon the bed clothing in the wagon. The name of this five-months-old baby was Solomon Finch, the last born. The widow of Isaac Finch, together with these children, then took their departure from the scene of the massacre, and after many days of tedious, tiresome and dangerous travel, made their way though swamp and wilderness for some three hundred miles to Genesee County, New York, where they were finally given shelter, food and clothing and abided until they were joined by the son and daughter who had gone on a visit to Massachusetts. They finally built them a house of logs and remained in this settlement for many years, and until the children were grown and married." A will, however, probated March 29, 1793, and administered by son, Isaac Kinney Finch, indicates that this Isaac Finch died between February 12, 1790 and December 1792 in Wyoming Valley,Pittston Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania.

| 4037 | Lived in this house until 1777. This house was where the first court was held on 23 Jan 1777. On 1 Jan 1777 the county was divided and assumed its current boundaries. It was ordered that Pittsylvania court be held at Richard Farthing's house until the justices selected a location and built a courthouse. The previous court to this was at Callands. Court was soon moved to Cherrystone Meeting House Spring off Whittle Street in Chatham. In 1783 a new courthouse was built up the hill from the spring, where Chatham Baptist Church now stands. | Farthing, Richard Joel (I13032)

From Edward Antill to Henry Lloyd (October 5, 1725) The Letter wherein You thought it not proper that Aurelia should be Hyred under Nine Pounds per Annum, is the reason that she is not yet Disposed of & I believe will not till she be let at a lower rate. I had once hyred her out for Eight pounds upon liking, but upon receipt of Your letter took her home again. 1725. From Henry Lloyd to Mrs. Smith I just now received a letter from Mr. Antill by which I find Aurelia is with you in order to be forwarded to me, but that she is obstinate in refuseing to come. I am to well used to Negroes resolutions to have any regard to them. What I aim at is the complyance with my Sister Lloyds desire & interest. I have no business for her & had much rather she were hyred out in the City & shall be much oblidged to you if you’l please to contribute towards hyreing her into some good family on as good terms as you can which will be most for my Sisters intrest & by far more agreeable to me than to have her with me.

She now Sends you a Letter of Attorney that you may solely manage her Affairs in New York and not let them be under the direction of so many persons. And as she takes notice of what you write concerning her Negroes, that the People to whom they are hired out bring the Charges for their Clothing upon a par with their Wages, so she also fears the familiar Management and Carriage wherwith such servants are treated amongst the Dutch will spoil them, She desireth You would take them all home to your house where she hopes their Work will compensate for their Maintenance and if it over doth she had rather you, than any other should have some Advantage by them, seeing none will accrue to her by their hire; And she desires you to keep them there with you till you hear farther from her or see her again, for she intends if she can in any manner get her Brother Col: Ely’s consent, to return to those parts again. But the Negro Man Jack who is a Butcher is to remain in York as he is now, that is to pay his Mistress 12L per annum and find himself in all things. February, 1725/6 1729.

I immediately acquainted Beekman with this and desired he would wait June out which He consents to, my letter having reached the day Aurelia was to be Exposed to sale at Vandue. I have been the more perticular in this affair because I would intreat the favour that on Mr Orgil’s arrival as you happen to meet with him you’l please aquaint him therewith and that as soon as my affairs will permit after notice of his arrival I will see him in York. I am with due respect Sir. 1730.

To the following ancestral story - here given in merest outlne - any American Fitz Randolph, who has been at the trouble of tracing his lineage back to Edward the Pilgrim, may, we believe, safely and reasonably link his line. (1) ROLF - The norseman Conqueror. Born about A.D. 860. Died A.D. 932. Married Gisela, daughter of King Charles of France. (2) WILLIAM, "Longsword" - Duke of Normandy. Died about 943. (3) RICHARD, "The Fearless" - Duke of Normandy. Reigned more than half a century. Died A.D. 996. (4) RICHARD, "The Good" - Duke of Normandy. Died A.D. 1026. (5) RICHARD - Duke of Normandy. Whose wife was Judith. He died A.D. 1028. [He was father of Robert "The Magnificent," whose son was William "The Conqueror," and he was brother of Avicia, who married Geoffrey, Duke of Brittany.] (6) GEOFFREY, AVICIA. (7) EUDO - Duke of Brittany. Married Agnes, daughter of Alan, and died in 1079. (8) RIBALD - Lord of Middleham. [Brother to Alan Rufus, Duke of Richmond, and to Stephen and to Bardolf.] Married Beatrix, and spent his last days in retirement at St. Mary's Abbey, York. (9) RANDOLPH - Lord of Middleham. Married Agatha, daughter of the first Robert of Bruce. (10) ROBERT FITZ RANDOLPH - Lord of Middleham. Who built the Castle of Middleham and married Helewisa de Glanville. (11) RANDOLPH FITZ RANDOLPH - Lord of Middleham. Married Mary, daughter of Roger Bigot, Duke of Norfolk. '(12) RANDOLPH FITZ RANDOLPH - Lord of Middleham. Who married Anastasia, daughter of William, Lord Percy. (13) MARY FITZ RANDOLPH. Daughter of Randolph and Anastasia, a rich, religious and benevolent woman who married Robert de Neville. She died A.D. 1320, having survived her husband 49 years. (14) RANDOLPH DE NEVILLE - Lord of Middleham. Whose second wife was Margaret, daughter of Marmaduke Thweng. Died 1332. (15) RANDOLPH DE NEVILLE - Lord of Middleham. Who married Alicia, daughter of Hugo de Audley. Died 1358. (16) JOHN DE NEVILL - Lord of Middleham. Who married Matilda Percy.* Died 1389. (17) RANDOLPH DE NEVILLE - Lord of Middleham and first Earl of Westmorland. Whose first wife was Margaret (daughter of Hugo), Lady Stafford - descended from Edward I - and whose second wife was Joan of Beaufort, daughter of John of Gaunt and granddaughter of Edward III. He died in 1435. By his second wife his posterity runs into and adown the English royal line. See page 36. We now follow the posterity of the Earl of Westmoreland by his first wife, Lady Stafford. (18) JOHN (the children of whose brother Randolph were all daughters) married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Holland, Earl of Canterbury. He died two years before his father, in 1433. (19) JOHN, heir presumptive f to the dukedom of Westmoreland. Was hero of the battle of Towton, in the year 1461, and bravely lost his life there on the Lancastrian side. He had married Anna, the widow of John de Neville. (20) RANDOLPH - Duke of Westmoreland. (Son of John and Anna) married Margaret, daughter of Booth de Barton of Lancaster. (21) RANDOLPH, Heir presumptive. Died during his father's lifetime; married Edith, daughter of the Earl of Sandwich. (22) RANDOLPH - Duke of Westmoreland. (Son of Randolph and Edith), married Catherine, daughter of Edward, Duke of Buckingham.* Died 1524. (23) RANDOLPH - fifth son of Randolph and Catherine. The first son being Henry, whose son Charles was the last in the line of these dukes of Westmoreland, and the other sons being Thomas, Edward, Christopher and Cuthbert. Died probably about 1565. (24) CHRISTOPHER FITZ RANDOLPH (son of Randolph, fifth son of Duke of Westmoreland). Married Joan, daughter and heiress of Cuthbert Langton of Langton Hall. Died 1588. (25) EDWARD FITZ RANDOLPH of Langton Hall. With whom was found and in whom was confirmed by the "Visitation" of 1614 the Fitz Randolph Arms substantially as borne by the Lords of Middleham and by the Spennithorne branch of Fitz Randolph. Died probably about 1635. (26) EDWARD FITZ RANDOLPH - Pilgrim. Married May 10, 1637, at Scituate, Mass., to Elizabeth Blossom, daughter of Thomas and Anne Blossom. Moved to Piscataway, N. J., 1669. Died 1675. ___________________ Ranulf Fitz Ranulf, Lord of Spennithorne, Co. York, Born ca 1220/5, died before 1294. Married Bertrama, widowof Sir Roger Ingoldsby. With this generation the Fitz Ranulf (Fitz Randal, Fitz Randolph) name became well established. Ranulf bore the Arms of his grandfather Glanville. Ranulf's decendants in the male line continued at Spennithorne until theearly part of the 16th century.

Jane was b. c. 1499, d. betw. 30 July 1573 (date of will) and 2 Apr. 1574 (probate). (NEHGR, 97: 296, 99: 335-336; Brit. Museum Add. Mss. 6705: f58b; Add. Mss. 6707: v1O2; Harl. Mss. 1400: 58, 58b; Thoroton, Antiquities of Nottinghamshire, 2: 296; Harl. Soc. Publ., 4: 187. L.V.F. Randolph, FitzRandolph Traditions, mentions Christopher Fitz Randolph and Jane Langton many times, but this book regrettably contains many errors; Whitaker, Richmondshire II, p. 46). 13. CHRISTOPHER FITZ RANDOLPH, b. c. 1530, bur. at Sutton-in-Ashfield, co. Nottingham, 28 June 1588 (this is the correct date of burial from original paper Parish Register of Sutton-in-Ashfield. The date was incorrectly copied as "7 Jun 1589" in late parchment copy of original Register, and wrong date from copy was unfortunately printed in the NEHGR, 97: 298). Christopher was his parents' fourth son, and was named in his mother's will, dated 30 July 1573. His own will, dated 20 June 1588, was proved 1 Apr. 1589 in the Peculiar Court of the Manor of Mansfield (Notts. County Record Office, D.D.P. 17/69). Christopher's wife, who predeceased him, was not named in his will. He had four sons, James, Anthony, Edward and Christopher, named in the will. 14. EDWARD FITZ RANDOLPH, b. c. 1565, d. betw. 13 Aug. 1647 (dated of will) and 27 Oct. 1647 (probate). He was prob. b. at Hucknall-under-Huthwaite in the parish of Sutton-in-Ashfield, co. Nottingham, and moved aft. 1621 to Kirsall in the Parish of Kneesall, co. Nottingham, where he died. He was the 3rd son named in his father's will, and was prob. the nephew Edward named in the will of his uncle Thomas Fitz Randolph, 21 May 1600. (NEHGR, 97: 297). He m. (1) at Sutton-in-Ashfield, 16 Nov. 1589, Alice Tompson, bur. there 27 Dec. 1604. He m. (2) at Sutton-in-Ashfield, 17 Dec. 1605, Frances Howls, apparently a native of the parish of Kneesall, co. Nottingham, bur. at Kneesall 7 June 1631 (NEHGR 97: 298; Transcript of the Parish Registers of Kneesall; original will of Edward Fitz Randolph at York Probate Registry, in which he bequeathed ten pounds sterling to his son Edward "if he cum to demand it.") 15. EDWARD FITZ RANDOLPH (son of the 2nd marriage), the emigrant to New England and eventual settler in New Jersey, bp. at Sutton-in-Ashfield, co. Nottingham, 5 July 1607, emigrated 1630 to Scituate, Mass., then moved to Barnstable, Cape Cod, and finally to Piscataway, N.J., where he d. c. 1684/5. He m. at Scituate, 10 May 1637, Elizabeth Blossom, b. at Leyden, Netherlands, 1620, d. at Piscataway, c. 1713, having remarried, 30 June 1685, Capt. John Pike. (NEHGR 97: 275-276, 298; 99: 335-336; Louise Aymar Christian and Howard Stelle Fitz Randolph, Fitz Randolph Genealogy, 5). Note: Although this line is probably sound, attention should be drawn to other evidences. C.T. Clay, Early Yorkshire Charters, 5: 303, say that Ranulf Fitz Robert "is said to have married Mary daughter of Roger Bigod earl of Norfolk" (see above, Generation 2). Mary definitely brought the lands of Menethorpe, co York, to her husband in gift of frank-marriage, which lands had previously been held by Roger Bigod (ibid., footnote 4 and authorities there cited). Moreover, the careful pedigree in the Genealogist, n.s., 3: 33, gives Mary as daughter of Roger Bigod. The weakest link is that which connects Generations 10 and 11 (above). John Fitz Randolph (Generation 10) was succeeded at Spennithorne by his eldest son Sir Ralph Fitz Randolph (b.c. 1444, d. 1517) who married Elizabeth Scrope, daughter of Sir Thomas Scrope, 5th Lord Scrope of Masham. They had a son John Fitz Randolph (who d. in 1517 shortly after his father, and was the last of the Fitz Randolphs of Spennithorne), and five daughters, Elizabeth, Alice, Mary, Dorothy, and Agnes, who were coheiresses of their brother John at his death in 1517 (Surtees Soc. Publ., 133: 24). In 1514 Christopher Fitz Randolph (Generation 12) was married by contract to Jane Langton. Two of the feoffees of the marriage contract were John Fitz Randolph, heir of Spennithorne, mentioned above, and his brother-in-law Sir Nicholas Strelley of Linby, co. Nottingham, husband of Elizabeth Fitz Randolph, the eldest of the five Spennithorne coheiresses. It is presumed that John Fitz Randolph and Strelley were feoffees because the bride-groom, Christopher Fitz Randolph, was John's first cousin and Strelley's first-cousin-in-law (see discussion by Anthony R. Wagner, Richmond Herald, in NEHGR 99: 335-336). We also know that Christopher Fitz Randolph (Generation 12) had an uncle, Christopher Fitz Randolph, parson of Kirkby-in-Ashfield, co. Nottingham, who was presented to that living 3 Mar. 1489/90 by Sir John Conyers, Knt., of Hornby Castle, co. York, who had acquired the advowson. Christopher Fitz Randolph, the parson made a will dated 1 June 1516, proved 17 July 1516, of which his nephew Christopher (Generation 12) was one of the executors. Christopher the parson unfortunately did not mention his kinsmen of the Spennithorne line in this will. We further know that John Fitz Randolph (Generation 10) married Joan Conyers, eldest daughter of Sir Christopher Conyers, Knt., lord of Hornby Castle, co. York (Raine, Testamenta Eboracenses, 3: 228; Conyers pedigree in J.W. Clay, Extinct and Dormant Peerages of the Northern Counties of England, 32-33). Joan (Conyers) Fitz Randolph was living, a widow, 22 June 1483, when she was named in the will of that date of her brother Christopher Conyers, Rector of Rudby, co. York (Raine, Test. Ebor., 3: 287). We think (but cannot prove) that John Fitz Randolph (Generation 10) and his wife Joan Conyers had, in addition to their eldest son and heir Sir Ralph, younger sons named Richard, John, and Christopher, and a daughter Margery who married John Burgh of East Hawkswell, co. York (for the Burghs, see Whitaker, Richmondshilre, 347). Of the above-named three younger sons, we suppose that John was the John Fitz Randolph (Generation 11), while Christopher was the parson of Kirkby-in-Ashfield, named for his grandfather and uncle, each named Christopher Conyers. If this connection be correct, as we believe, it would explain why Sir John Conyers of Hornby (eldest son of Sir Christopher and brother of Joan (Conyers) Fitz Randolph) acquired the advowson of Kirkby-in-Ashfield and presented Christopher Fitz Randolph (whom we believe to have been Sir John's nephew) to that living. It may be noted in passing that the given name Christopher entered the Fitz Randolph family through the marriage to Joan Conyers in the fifteenth century and continued as a given name in that family for over two centuries. Edward[1] Fitz Randolph's (Generation 15) eldest surviving son Nathaniel[2] had an eldest son John[3] who had an eldest son Christopher[4], b. at Woodbridge, N.J., 23 Feb. 1682 (L.A. Christian and H.S.F. Randolph, FitzRandolph Genealogy, 9). Bearing in mind the possibilities that Mary Bigod (Generation 2) may not have been the wife of Randulf fitz Robert, and that John Fitz Randolph Generation 11) may not have been a younger son of John Fitz Randolph (Generation 10), even though we think that those connections are correct, we have presented the above pedigree. John Insley Coddington _______________ Ranulf Fitz Robert, 4th Lord of Middleham and Spennithorne, Died before December 7, 1252, buried at CoverhamAbbey, Co. York. Married Mary Bigod, heriess of Menethorpe, Co. York to her husband in gift of frank-marriage, whichlands had previously been held by her father Roger Bigod, 2nd Earl of Norfolk and a Magna Carta Surety. Ranulf Fitz Rob-ert held 6 knights fees in the honour of Richmond. He bore the arms of his grandfather Glanville, "Argent, a chief indentedazure, Crest on a chapeau or turned up a wivern of the last." Ralph, the eldest son of Ranulf, born ca 1218, died 31 March1270, married Anastacia, d/o of William de Percy and left only daughters of whom the eldest, Mary, married Robert deNeville of Raby and conveyed her father's land to the Nevilles. Therefore the male line of the Fitz Randolph family lost in-heritance to Middleham.
