| 7301 | Sergeant Samuel Wright Jr. Sergeant) Samuel WRIGHT Jr. Born (about 1627-1632)(probably 3 OCT 1632)(1633-S2)(4 DEC 1638) in England; son of (Deacon) Samuel WRIGHT [F1] and Margaret STRATTON. It has been reported that he was christened at Kelvedon Hatch on 10 March 1632. This record is not found in the St. Nicholas parish register, which is not surprising, since the Kelvendon Hatch branch of the family were Catholic, whereas Samuel WRIGHT was of the puritans. It is said that he came to America with his father. It is not known exactly when his father came to New England, but probably about 1635-1636. It is said that he came to America with his father. It is not known exactly when his father came to New England. If it was in 1630, as some have said, then Samuel was born in New England. If it was in 1636, as others have said, then Samuel was born in England. He moved with his father to Springfield, Massachusetts about 1636. He married Elizabeth Burt on 24 NOV 1653. It is said that this occurred at Northampton, Hampshire County, Massachusetts. However Samuel did not go to Northampton until 1655 or 1656; so he must have married Elizabeth in Springfield, Hampden County, Massachusetts. They were among the first to move to Northampton, in 1655 or 1656. After moving to Northampton, he settled on Bridge Street where the house of John L. Draper stood. In addition to the 3 acres for a homelot, he was granted 34 acres of meadow land. After living on this homestead about 17 years, and serving the town as one of its selectmen and in other offices, he went with his family, in company with 15 other families, as pioneer settlers, to a place about 35 miles up the Connecticut River, called by the Indians from whom it was purchased, Squakeag. This place was named by the English "Northfield" because it was the northermost settlement on the river, became the future home of Samuel Wright Jr. and many of his descendants. Samuel Wright Jr must have lived within the meadow fence & not on the plains. Here they built small huts near each other, and ran a stockade around a number of them for a fort into which they might flee, if attacked. Samuel Wright Jr. had an illegitimate child with Elizabeth Burt's sister, Mary Burt. [(Source?) This was probably his brother Judah]. All went peacefully for 2 years until the King Philip war broke out in 1675. In the latter part of August, the safety of Northfield was threatened, and so 20 men were sent up and placed under command of Lt. Samuel Wright. On Thursday 2 September 1675, as Lt. Wright and the men under him were in the field gathering flax, they were attacked by King Philip's men. Lt. Wright was killed, aged ca 45 yrs; also 2 sons of Elder William Janes, their preacher and 5 others, and wounded Samuel Wright III. The rest, men women, and children, fled inside the small stockade, and were shut in there 5 days. What days and nights of terror those must have been to the widow and fatherless children with the savatges burning and destroying outside, and liable to break in at any time and put them all to death. The day after the attack, Capt. Beers, not knowing what had happened set out from Hadley, with 36 mounted men, to bring away the soldiers and inhabitants, but on reaching the outskirts of the town, fell into an ambush, and he and the larger part of his men were killed, but 13 escaped and flec back to Hadley. Immediately Major Treat with more than 100 men prepared to go up for the relief of Northfield, where he arrived Monday afternoon on 6 September. One account is that immediately set about burying those killed on 2 September. The first found was the body of Lt. Wright, which was taken up the bank and buried in the first grave opened in present Northfield Cemetery. His burial was hardly finished when Maj. Treat was struck with a spent ball from the thicket. Upon consulting with his officers, it was decided to take the 100 or more people that had been shut inside the stockade and start back to Hadley that night. In their journey down through the wilderness what fears they must have had; fears of falling into an ambush and meeting the same fate as came to Capt. Beers and Co., on this same route 3 days before, and the fate that came to the 80 young soldiers at Bloody Brook, a few days later. His inventory was taken March 30, 1676, and amounted to 326£ 14S. House & home lot 60£ had wheel right tools 61/ 3 horses & heofer 15.5, Land in meadow & pasture 163£ sae, grindstone & loom 61/ sheep & swine 10£10s, yoke of oxen & steers 15£, 4 cattle 4 mares & [c]olt 14£, arms & ammunition 65/, bedding & clothing 14£5s. Widow Elizabeth & son Sam'l admin. Widow & heirs made an agreement (for her & those of age) March 30, 1680, She was to have use of 1/2 house 1/2 barn 1/2 homelot which was next to the meadow including all the orchard half the pasture lying next the house containing 13 acres. 1/8 other land & movables. Samuel to have double share. Court to appoint men to divide the estate Men were appointed but not ?. Explanation "half the homelot" may mean that next to Hawley Sheet lot on the side south the land. (Or it may mean lower side of lot below swamp.) WIFE of (Sergeant) Samuel WRIGHT Jr. [F2]: Elizabeth BURT (BURK).

| 7303 | Sergt Benoni Stebbins part in the February 29th attack The house of Benoni Stebbins stood about 8 rods southwest of Ensign Sheldon's house, It was occupied by Sergt Stebbins and his wife and 5 children: David Hoyt and his wife and child and probably Joseph Catlin and his wife and child and probably Joseph Church(a soldier). There were others there also. 3 men and perhaps other women and children. These people held off the attack of the French and their Indian comrades. The Stebbins house was surrounded and bullets were poured into it. The people in the Stebbin house were able to return the fire and were able to kill many. Some of those killed were important to the French cause. They were the Macqua Chief and a Frech lieutenant that was the 2nd in command. Sergt. Stebbins was killed during this attack on his house. The French later retreated to the Sheldon house and the meetinghouse and fired on the Stebbin house from those vantage points. Mrs Hoyt and probably Church(soldier) were wounded. Much of this information was taken from George Sheldon's "History of Deerfield". | Stebbins, Benoni (I29999)

| 7318 | Severin de Svanenhielm (Seehuusen) was born in 1664, died in 1726, was founding clerk in Bergen in 1711 and held this office also in Stavanger and Northern Norway. He belonged to a wealthy citizen family in Stavanger. He owned, among other things, the Damsgaard estate on Laksevåg, where the Damsgård main farm is located and Arnegård in Stavanger. He must also have built the oldest parts of it. He was knighted in 1720 under the name Svanenhielm, which he had assumed when he bought the Svanøy estate in 1719. Coat of arms Before the nobility, Severin Seehusen used a coat of arms with a skull placed on two crossed bones and under one arm from a cloud. The helmet sign is a standing swan with raised wings. In his coat of arms he received several figures with special symbolism. In the weapon the shield is divided into four parts: 1st field blue with a silver swan (so-called "talking weapon" for the name). It probably refers to Svanøy. 2nd field gold with a red house. It can be a red-painted house or it can be a brick house. It may refer to Damsgård, but can also be a "talking weapon" for the name Seehusen. We do not know if it is a sign of a real house. The third field is the same as the second field, but here it is a silver house. 4th field is equal to 1st field. On the helmet, the helmet is a silver swan. Around the neck of the helmet hangs a gold necklace attached to a blue ribbon. Sources Norwegian Wikipedia: Severin Seehusen Svanenhielm munthe.net: Severin Seehusen Note Severin Seehusen (born 1664, died 1726) was a founding clerk in Bergen in 1711 and held this office also in Stavanger and Northern Norway. He belonged to a wealthy citizen family in Stavanger. He owned, among other things, the Damsgaard estate on Laksevåg, where the Damsgård main farm is located and Arnegård in Stavanger. He must also have built the oldest parts of it. He was honored in 1720 under the name Svanenhjelm, which he had taken when he bought the Svanøy estate in 1719. (By Irene Røyneberg) Adlet 'de Svanenhielm' 1720. Eide Svanøy Main estate from 1720 Was a successful merchant in 1702. Severin was noble 20 Dec 1720 after he took over Svanøy Main Estate, having acquired Damsgaard Main Estate just before. He came for a few years afterwards in a bottomless cash shortage of over 100,000 riksdaler, and the King took over the goods. | Seehuusen Svanenhjelm, Severin Mortensen (I36131)

| 7319 | Severin was married in 1747 to Anna Cecelia Grubbe Moller, born 1726, died 1808. They had four sons and three daughters. Severin became an Ensign in 1742, 1st Lieutenant in 1745 and Captain in 1752. He died at the early age of 33 years. In the Segelcke Genealogy book there is a pen print profile of him as he lay in his coffin. He had been embalmed and buried in the church under the choir loft. In 1914 while extensive alterations were being made to the church building, it was necessary to remove the coffins under the floor, and Severin's coffin was opened. His body was well preserved and a pen print was made of this features under candle light by a relative, S. Segelcke Meidell, the only picture of him in existence. His wife Anna lived to aripe old age. . . . The Anderson-Krogh Geneology: Ancestral Lines and Descendants. Lester W. Hansen. 1956, p. 137 | Segelke, Severin Vincent (I920)

| 7330 | Shirley Plantation Shirley Plantation is Virginia's first plantation (1613) and one of the first economic engines of the new world. Only six years after John Smith's settlement at Jamestown, the crown grant carving Shirley Plantation out of the Virginia frontier was established. The chronicle of Shirley Plantation best exemplifies the period in our nation's history between the settlement at Jamestown in 1607 and the movement towards American independence from Great Britain in 1776. During its long history and under the leadership of one family, Shirley Plantation has survived the Indian Uprising, Bacon's Rebellion, the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and the Great Depression. Shirley Plantation is the oldest family-owned business in North America dating back to 1638. Construction of the present mansion began in 1723 when Elizabeth Hill, great-granddaughter of the first Hill, married John Carter, eldest son of Robert "King" Carter. Completed in 1738, the mansion, referred to as the “Great House,” is largely in its original state and is owned, operated, and lived in by direct descendants of Edward Hill. The guided tour of the Great House highlights original family furnishings, portraits, silver, and hand-carved woodwork as well as stories of the Hill-Carter family, eye witnesses to eleven generations of American history. As one architectural historian contends," Shirley Plantation is the most intact 18th century estate in Virginia". Several features such as the "Flying Staircase" and the Queen Anne Forecourt are the only remaining examples in America of this architectural style. | Carter, John (I47140)

| 7334 | Silas Fuqua was born to a prominent family of French Huguenots in Virginia. He and several of his brothers migrated to Alabama when it was still a territory. He first appears on tax lists there in 1810 and patented land in 1812 and 1819 in Madison County near Huntsville. He married Sally Young in 1814. Genealogists have listed Sally's name as Sally Taney based on information from a Fuqua family Bible. However, I believe this is a mistranscription of the name. There are no Taneys listed in either Bedford County, Virginia, where the Fuquas originated, nor in Madison County, Alabama where Silas is recorded as having married.There are however, numerous Toneys listed in both counties including the husband of her grandmother Celia Bondurant Fuqua's sister. Since the wedding certificate for Silas and Sally lists her name as Sally Young, she was either a 17 year old widow when she married Silas or her maiden name was Young and Toney was her middle name. Sally died in 1825, the same year that Silas and his brother Benjamin bought land in northwestern Alabama in what is now Colbert County. By 1828, he and Benjamin who was unmarried, and Silas's children journeyed north to join the Tennessee-Texas Land Company and then traveled in a group to Texas. They settled first in the Austin Colony but moved two years later to the DeWitt Colony where they both received large land grants. Unfortunately, Silas died shortly after and is believed buried in the Fuqua Family Cemetery though his gravestone and location have been lost. From: http://www.tamu.edu/ccbn/dewitt/oldgonzales18.htm#fuqua The following letter from Richard Ellis in Alabama recommended the Fuquas to Stephen F. Austin: "State of Alabama, Town of Tuscumbia 3rd Jany. 1828 D COLO, I beg leave to introduce to your aquantence and notice Mr Silus, Ephram and Benjmn Fuqua and Mr Job Ingram and Kye Ingram, these Gentlemen have emigrated to your Coloney to become permanent settlers---The Mr Fuquas are Mechanics. two of them of the best kind; they are honest and respectable men and are determined to suport the Government to which they go, I have had much conversation with Mr Silus Fuqua, on the present and future prospects of your coloney; and tho he has never seen it, he has a most corect idea of its great advantages, you will find him an inteligent man and I have no doubt will be an acquisition to your Setlement, I have known these gentlemen twelve years, the Mr Ingrams I have not known personaly but from their universal good character and the Gentlementhey go with, I feel no hesitation to recomend them to your attention...........Richard Ellis." Silas and Sally had the following children, all born in Alabama, all died in Texas with the exception of Lucas who went back to Alabama. Silas had a large personal library and he named his sons Galba and Fabius after Roman generals.

| 7335 | Silas worked as a clerk in Boston. He met and was recruited by Comfort Tyler to participate in the "Aaron Burr Expedition". He made it to Mississippi where all the group, including Burr, were arrested. Burr was acquitted of treason in 1807. Silas lived in Natchez, Mississippi for some years working as a clerk before he died in 1817. He corresponded with his cousin Ephraim Brown over the years leading up to his death. The letters were published in 1915 in "The Aaron Burr Expedition - Letters to Ephraim Brown from Silas Brown 1805-1815". A copy of this book is attached below. | Brown, Silas (I4700)

The following letter from Richard Ellis in Alabama recommended the Fuquas to Stephen F. Austin: " State of Alabama, Town of Tuscumbia 3rd Jany. 1828 D COLO I beg leave to introduce to your aquantence and notice Mr Silus, Ephram and Benjmn Fuqua and Mr Job Ingram and Kye Ingram, these Gentlemen have emigrated to your Coloney to become permanent settlers---The Mr Fuquas are Mechanics. two of them of the best kind; they are honest and respectable men and are determined to suport the Government to which they go, I have had much conversation with Mr Silus Fuqua, on the present and future prospects of your coloney; and tho he has never seen it, he has a most corect idea of its great advantages, you will find him an inteligent man and I have no doubt will be an acquisition to your Setlement, I have known these gentlemen twelve years, the Mr Ingrams I have not known personaly but from their universal good character and the Gentlemen they go with, I feel no hesitation to recomend them to your attention...........RICHARD ELLIS." Benjamin was a representative from the Austin Municipality and a signer of the Declaration of the People of Texas declaring the intention of Texans to fight for the restoration of the Constitution of 1824 and support of a separate state of Texas within the Republic of Mexico. He was a mechanic (artisan) and mercantile businessman and was said to have owned the structure in inner Gonzales town called Luna which has been suggested as possibly one of the Grog Shops alluded to in David Edwards History of Texas. It may simply have been Benjamin Fuqua's general business establishment. Luna was on property deeded to Benjamin's brother Silas Fuqua who was a neighbor of John King. Benjamin Fuqua married King's oldest daughter Nancy. Benjamin Fuqua's nephew, Galba Fuqua and nephew by marriage, William King (Nancy King Fuqua's brother), were members of the Gonzales Relief Force to the Alamo and both died there in Mar 1836. | Fuqua, Galba (I20304)

| 7338 | Simon II de Senlis, 4th Earl of the Honour of Huntingdon and Northampton (c. 1098–1153) was an Anglo-Norman nobleman. He was the son of Simon I de Senlis, Earl of Huntingdon-Northampton and Maud, Countess of Huntingdon. He married Isabel, daughter of Robert de Beaumont, 2nd Earl of Leicester. He was prominent in The Anarchy, fighting for Stephen of England in 1141 at the Battle of Lincoln. He continued to support Stephen's side; R. H. C. Davis calls him 'staunch' and 'consistently loyal'[1] and surmises that Simon calculated that if the Empress Matilda won, his earldom of Northampton would be taken over by David of Scotland.[2] Simon was rewarded by becoming Earl of Huntingdon. He died in 1153 just before Henry II of England took over, whereupon the King restored the Earldom of Huntingdon-Northampton to his ally Malcolm IV of Scotland [3] Notes: 1.

According to his greatgrandson John Aubrey he �learned the first grounds of grammar in the College of Brecon�, whence he proceeded to Oxford at the age of 14, where: (in a few years he so much profited in humanity and other recommendable knowledge, especially in rhetoric and histories, as that he was found to be fit for the study of the civil law, and thereupon was also elected unto the fellowship of All Souls College) We also have in on John Aubrey�s authority that his ancestor was 25 when he received his doctorate: he had certainly not yet done so when on 7 Oct 1553 he was appointed joint professor of civil law. The post had previously been held by John Story, first alone and later with Robert Weston, but as Story had not had the last grant sealed it was again at the crown�s disposal. Of the stipend of L 40 a year Aubrey presumably received half , but at some time during his tenure he acquired Story�s interest and it was he alone who surrendered the office on 22 Feb 1559. He appears to have discharged its duties by deputy: in 1554 the lectures were given by William Mowse and in 1557 Aubrey went to France as judge marshal of the army led by William Herbert, Earl of Pembroke. Aubrey�s patronage by Pembroke, to which John Aubrey bore testimony, went back at least to the first year of Mary�s reign, for it was to the earl that he must have owed his election to the Parliament of April 1554; Pembroke was constable of Carmarthen castle and wielded much influence in the borough. By January 1558, when Aubrey was next returned to the House, the connexion had been strengthened by their wartime service together, and it was as the hero of St. Quentin, as well as chancellor and chamberlain of Brecon and constable of the castle, that Pembroke could procure Aubrey�s Membership of this Parliament is the entry of his name of Brecon Boroughs on the original Crown Office list: its omission (with 16 others) from a copy Of this list apparently made in preparation for the second session is a peculiarity which has yet to be explained but which hardly casts doubt upon his election. What part Aubrey played in the proceedings of either Parliament is unknown. In 1558 Aubrey had most of his life and career still ahead of him: he was to rise high as a civil lawyer and ecclesiastical administrator and to be a Member of three Elizabethan Parliaments, the last of them separated by nearly 40 years from the one in which he had first sat. He died on 25 June 1595 and was buried in St. Paul�s cathedral.

Theophilus Jones' History of the County of Brecknock (1898) and on page 449 he says "Sir William Awbrey m. Eliz. d. Sir Thomas Jones of Abermarlais." He also shows their children: 1 Elinor m Gregory Parry; 2 Jane m. John Baily of Ruthin; 3 John Awbrey died young 4 Catherine Awbrey; 5 Edward Awbrey m. Barbara Lloyd; 6 John Awbrey [he is ours as the earlier John had died]; 7 Tho. Awbrey; 8 Harry/Henry Awbrey; Reginald Awbrey. A cousin, John Aubrey, FRS, of Easton Pierce, began a suit to recover the Brecknockshire lands about 1656. This time corresponds roughly with the immigration of Henry to Virginia. Henry, John, and Thomas were the last heirs to Sir William Awbrey after the death of their brother Sir Edward Awbrey. However, Sir Edward had a son from a second marriage that became Sir William's heir. The three brothers recognized Sir Edward's son as heir and left for Virginia. Their cousin, John Aubrey, did not recognize Sir Edward's son as heir because he considered him illegitimate. However, John Aubrey lost his case, and William inherited. This information substantiates the family story that the brother's left Wales because of a lack of inheritance. 6. Sir William Awbrey had seven sons, all of whom were gone from Wales by 1656. This means that all seven would have to have died in before the age of forty-five. This is extremely unlikely seeing that most of them lived to adulthood. Furthermore, the fates of the older children are known, but the fates of John, Thomas, and Henry are unknown. This testifies to the fact that the family had little or no contact with the younger sons in later years. Again, this substantiates the claim that they were in Virginia. | Awbrey, Sir William (I2994)
