Heiberg, Norwegian family with wide ramifications in Denmark. The genus should not verified after a tribal tradition from "Jostedalsrypa", the only glacier that survived the Black Death. The genus has its source in luster with brothers Anders Lauritssøn (ca. 1565-1629) and Søfren Lauritssøn (ca. 1575-1653). Both were officers, owned considerable lands and have their own epitaph in the church Dale, Luster.

**********************************************************
Heiberg, norsk slekt med vide forgreninger i Danmark. Slekten skal etter en ikke verifisert tradisjon stamme fra «Jostedalsrypa», den eneste i Jostedal som overlevde Svartedauden. Slekten har sitt utspring i Luster med brødrene Anders Lauritssøn (ca. 1565–1629) og Søfren Lauritssøn (ca. 1575–1653). Begge var fogder, eide betydelig jordegods og har hvert sitt epitafium i Dale kirke, Luster. Søfren var far til sorenskriver i Indre Sogn, Anders Søfrenssøn (1630–88), gift 1) ca. 1655 med Maren Giertsdatter (Morgenstierne), 2) 1675 med Ellen Hansdatter Ørbech. Barna i 2. ekteskap kalte seg Ørbech, barna i 1. ekteskap tok navnet Heiberg. De nålevende slekter Heiberg i Norge og Danmark stammer fra tre av Anders Søfrenssøns sønner.

Fra sogneprest i Sogndal Søren Heiberg (1657–1713) stammer tre danske grener av slekten.

Fra en yngre sønn, Gert (Giert) Anderssøn Heiberg (1660–1724), sorenskriver i Indre Sogn, stammer én dansk og flere norske grener:

1) Sogneprest Anders Heiberg (1693–1743) var far til rektor i Vordingborg Ludvig Heiberg (1723–60) og kjøpmann i Bergen Dankert Dankertsen Heiberg (1735–95).

STREETER-ADAMS RECORDS FROM A STREETER FAMILY BIBLE

In the Streeter genealogy, compiled by the contributor of this article and published in 1896,* it was stated (page 4) that Ursula, wife of Stephen Streeter, the immigrant ancestor of the New England family of the surname, “is said to have been the daughter of Henry Adams of Braintree,” Mass., who was the immigrant ancestor of the Adams family which has given to the United States two Presidents, a minister to Great Britain, a Secretary of the Navy, and many other men distinguished in letters, science, public affairs, business, and finance. Since, however, it might possibly be inferred from the will of Henry Adams, made in 1664, that his daughter Ursula was then living at home with him, apparently unmarried, “a shadow of doubt” in the words of Streeter genealogy, seemed to have been thrown around the statement that the wife of Stephen Streeter was Ursula Adams. In 1927, however, there was printed, at the expense of the late Edward Dean Adams of New York City, a little book, compiled for him by the late J Gardner Bartlett, a well-known authority on the English ancestry of the early settlers of New England, and titled “Henry Adams of Somersetshire, England and Braintree, Mass.,” in which the Somersetshire ancestry of Henry Adams was clearly set forth and much information was given about the early generations of the family in New England. IN this book the Adams ancestry of the descendants of Stephen Streeter, through his wife Ursula, was accepted and proved, and in the Register for October 1929 (vol. 83, p. 512) the present writer called attention to the statement of the new Adams genealogy about the parentage of Ursula Adams and her marriage to Stephen Streeter, and gave a list of their children.

When the Adams genealogy compiled by Mr. Bartlett was published, the exact dates of the birth and death of Henry Adams and of the births (or baptisms) of his children (except three who were recorded in England) had not been found, nor were the exact dates of the marriage of Stephen Streeter and Ursula Adams and the births of their children (except one child) known. The approximate years of most of these genealogical happening had been [skillfully] inferred by Mr. Bartlett, but the months and the days of the months remained for the most part undiscovered. It is the purpose of the writer to present in this article some recently discovered Bible records supply the missing portions of the dates in the family of Stephen and Ursula (Adams) Streeter and some of the missing dates in the family of Henry Adams, including the dates of the birth and death of Henry Adams himself and the date of the birth of his son Joseph Adams, the ancestor of the Presidents. The story of the discovery of these records must, however, first be told.

Some two years ago the contributor of this article inserted an advertisement in the Boston Evening Transcript, in which he offered a considerable sum for a Bible mentioned in the inventory of goods of Stephen Streeter 1, which was taken 24 July 1652. On 30 November, 1930 Mr. John Hayes Goodwin of South Berwick, Maine, wrote to the contributor and informed him that in looking for some old books on genealogical subjects he had found, in a second-hand records. He described the book as “an old Bible, Ten and one half inches long by eight and one quarter inches wide and three inches thick. “This Old Bible is in pretty poor condition without the front title page and the top cover has been sewed on.” “Between the Old and New Testament,” added Mr. Goodwin, “there is a family record of Stephen Streeter,” and he mentioned some of the names given in this record without communication the dates.

Clearly this was not the Bible sought by the advertisement; but the present writer purchased from Mr. Goodwin a copy of the records in this later Bible, and the copy, “of all records that the bible contains,” was sent to him in a letter dated 10 December 1930. These records, according to Mr. Goodwin’s copy, are as follows:

Mr. Goodwin, unfortunately did not purchase the Bible in which these records were found; and, when the writer of this article, in May of current year, was at length able to call on him at South Berwick and was conducted by him to the bookstore of A. J. Frazier, in Portsmouth, N. H., where Mr. Goodwin had seen the Bible some five or six months earlier, it was no longer to be found. Mr. Frazier could give no information as to what had become of it; but he said that he believed that it had been at one time in his possession, one of a lot of many old books which he had bought from a party in New York City, where they had been in storage for over twenty years. It was his custom, he said, to buy and sell old Bibles frequently, at from ten cents to one dollar each; and this Bible was probably one of many which had been sold in the usual way, without any special attention being given to it. The present writer has advertised for the Bible both in the Boston Transcript and in the Portsmouth Herald, and cherished the hope that it may yet be found.

The records printed above, however, carry their own evidence the truth. It seems impossible that any one could have forged them. In the opinion of the writer they are absolutely authentic. It is likely the missing Bible from which they were copied was at one time the property of a child or grandchild of Stephen and Ursula (Adams) Streeter, and that its owner not only entered in it what might be called contemporary record of the Streeter family but also copied as a few Adams records, having found these earlier records, probably, in and older Bible (perhaps the one mentioned in the inventory of the goods of Stephen Streeter in 1652), which had been handed down from the immigrant and his wife to their descendants.

To all who are familiar with the early history of the Streeters in New England and the Henry Adams family importance of these records is obvious. They confirm the marriage of Stephen Streeter and Ursula Adams and give its exact date. They supply also exact dates for many births, marriages, and deaths in the Streeter family and for the birth and death of Henry Adams and the birth of his son Joseph, as well as a few other exact dates in the Adams family. Nearly all the dates given in these records are in their precision and fullness quite new to the genealogical knowledge of New England.

FOOTNOTES:
*A Genealogical History of the Descendants of Stephen and Ursula Streeter, Massachusetts, Eben Putnam, Publisher, 1896.

**The month of the death of Stephen Streeter and the year of the death of Ursula Adams as given in the copy of the records made by Mr. Goodwin, are certainly errors, either of the person who entered these deaths in the Bible of 1693 or of the person who copied the entries from the Bible. Stephen Streeter died between “this tenth of the fourth month A thousand six hundred and fifty two [19 June 1652], when his will was dated, and “The 24th day of the 5th month 1653” [24 July 1652], when the inventory “of the House and goods of Steven Streeter shoemaker: of Charlestown Inhabited, late deceased” was taken. Ursula Adams was executrix of the will of her first husband, Stephen Streeter, and was married to her fourth husband, Griffin Crafts, 15 July 1673.

Styrk came to this country with his parents, Sjur Styrkson Reque and Ann Gjermo (Reque), in 1845 and settled at Leeds, Wisconsin about twenty miles north of Madison, Wisconsin. Three years later they moved to the Koshkonong Settlement in Dane County where Styrk received his preliminary education. Later, he continued his studies at the University of Wisconsin, and at Concordia Theological Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri graduating with a Divinity Degree. His first charge was at Roche a Cree near New Lisbon, Wisconsin where he served several neighboring congregations. In 1871 he accepted a call extended to him from Spring Grove and there he remained as pastor for thirty-nine years. It was said that the saloons, up to that time a curse and a disgrace to Spring Grove, were voted out and no one questioned the contention that the change was due to the fearless and untiring work of the strong and energetic pastor.

Sveigðir, Sveigder or Swegde (Old Norse "Waving One") was a Swedish king of the House of Yngling in Norse mythology. He was the son of Fjölner, whom he succeeded as king, and he married Vana of Vanaheimr, probably one of the Vanir. Lured by a dwarf, Sveigðir disappeared into a stone and never came back. He was succeeded by his son Vanlandi.

Snorri Sturluson wrote of Sveigðir in his Ynglinga saga (1225):
Svegðir tók ríki eptir föður sinn; hann strengði þess heit at leita Goðheims ok Óðins hins gamla. Hann fór með 12 menn víða um heiminn, hann kom út í Tyrkland ok í Svíþjóð hina miklu ok hitti þar marga frændr sína ok vini, ok var í þeirri för 5 vetr. Þá kom hann aptr til Svíþjóðar, dvaldist hann þá enn heima um hríð. Hann hafði fengit konu þá er Vana hét út í Vanaheimi; var þeirra son Vanlandi. Svegðir fór enn at leita Goðheims. Ok í austanverðri Svíþjóð heitir bœr mikill at Steini, þar er steinn svá mikill sem stór hús. Um kveldit eptir sólarfall, þá er Svegðir gékk frá drykkju til svefnbúrs, sá hann til steinsins, at dvergr sat undir steininum. Svegðir ok hans menn váru mjök druknir ok runnu til steinsins. Dvergrinn stóð í durum ok kallaði á Sveigði, bað hann þar inn ganga, ef hann vildi Óðin hitta. Svegðir hljóp í steininn; en steinninn laukst þegar aptr, ok kom Svegðir eigi aptr.

Swegde took the kingdom after his father, and he made a solemn vow to seek Godheim and Odin. He went with twelve men through the world, and came to Turkland, and the Great Svithiod, where he found many of his connections. He was five years on this journey; and when he returned home to Sweden he remained there for some time. He had got a wife in Vanheim, who was called Vana, and their son was Vanlande. Swegde went out afterwards to seek again for Godheim, and came to a mansion on the east side of Swithiod called Stein, where there was a stone as big as a large house. In the evening after sunset, as Swegde was going from the drinking-table to his sleeping-room, he cast his eye upon the stone, and saw that a dwarf was sitting under it. Swegde and his man were very drunk, and they ran towards the stone. The dwarf stood in the door, and called to Swegde, and told him to come in, and he should see Odin. Swegde ran into the stone, which instantly closed behind him, and Swegde never came back.

Snorri also quoted some lines from Ynglingatal composed in the 9th century:

En dagskjarr
Dúrnis niðja
salvörðuðr
Sveigði vétti,
þá er í stein
enn stórgeði
Dusla konr
ept dvergi hljóp,
ok salr bjartr
þeira Sökmímis
jötunbyggðr
við jöfri gein.
By Diurnir's elfin race,
Who haunt the cliffs and shun day's face,
The valiant Swegde was deceived,
The elf's false words the king believed.
The dauntless hero rushing on,
Passed through the yawning mouth of stone:
It yawned – it shut – the hero fell,
In Saekmime's hall, where giants dwell.
The Historia Norwegiæ presents a Latin summary of Ynglingatal written in the late 12th century and consequently older than Snorri's quotation:

Froyr vero genuit Fiolni, qui in dolio medonis dimersus est, cujus filius Swegthir nanum in petram persequitur nec redisse dicitur, quod pro certo fabulosum creditur. Iste genuit Wanlanda [...]

Frøy engendered Fjolne, who was drowned in a tun of mead. His son, Sveigde, is supposed to have pursued a dwarf into a stone and never to have returned, but this is plainly to be taken as a fairy-tale. He sired Vanlande, [...]

The even earlier source Íslendingabók from the early 12th century, cites the line of descent in Ynglingatal and also gives Svegðir as the successor of Fjölnir and the predecessor of Vanlandi: iiii Fjölnir. sá er dó at Friðfróða. v Svegðir. vi Vanlandi.

Sydnor Coleman Giles, the son of William B Giles and Sarah Ann Ferguson, who married 3 Jan 1848 in Pittsylvania County Virginia was the only one of their seven children to live to adulthood. He was their first child, born 20 May 1949 in Pittsylvania County, where all their children were born. At the end of October and the first of November in 1860, his mother Sarah Ann, a brother Charles, and a sister Susan, died of Diptheria, apparently during an epidemic. The other children died of various other causes at various ages. In 1856, William B. had bought land in the Spring Garden area of Pittsylvania County from Wilson H Giles, who may be his brother. He had also bought land in 1860, adjoined to his previous purchase. William B never remarried, but heartbroken from the loss of his family, disposed of his land by 1870 and lived alone in the subdivision on the Dan River. When that census was taken, a housekeeper and her little daughter were listed as present. In 1872, he arrived in Tate County, Mississippi, to live with his son, Sydnor Coleman and his family.

Sydnor Coleman Giles migrated from his birthplace to DeSoto County, Mississippi between 1865 and 1870 where, in 1870 he was living with and working on the farm of J. W. and Susan Echols.

Tabitha Scarburgh - Smart - Browne - Custis - Hill, aka: Madame Tabitha Hill

Tabitha Scarburgh was a most colorful and interesting character. She was the daughter of Colonel Edmund Scarburgh and Mary Littleton and was their eldest child. Tabitha's birth year is estimated from two depositions she gave in middle age. On May 30, 1693, she said she was 53 years old, while on September 30, 1695, she said she was 56. This makes a discrepency of a year, so it seems safe to say she was born between May 30 and September 30, 1639.

Tabitha married the first of her four husbands when she was barely 14 years old. On July 12, 1653 her father, Colonel Scarburgh, made a deed gift to John Smart of "all that tract of land beloneinge unto mee att Maggetty Baye," - this gift being made to John Smart as a dower for Tabitha who had married him. July 12, 1653 was the anniversary of her christening date 14 years earlier.

Tabitha and John Smart became parents of only one child, daughter Tabitha Scarburgh Smart - who became the first of the five wives of William Whittington II of Maryland. They had two children: Smart Whittington, who died young without issue, and Tabitha Scarburgh Whittington, who married Edmund Custis, and from that line come all who claim descent from Tabitha I.

There is no record of when John Smart died (est. before 1657) but, sometime before 1660 Tabitha had married her second husband Deverax Browne, who was a merchant and sailed back and forth across the Atlantic. It is believed that Tabitha's portrait was painted during her marriage to Devereux Browne when she accompanied her husband on a voyage to England and sat for Sir Peter Lely, a Dutch painter known for painting portraits of the Royal Court. Records show Devereux Brown brought 41 persons from England to Virginia in November 1671 and was awarded a headright land grant of 100 acres for each. Again in March 1672 he brought about 90 persons to Virginia and received headright acreage. Tabitha likely accompanied her husband on one of these trips. Tabitha and Deverax Browne had one son together, Edmund Browne, who lived to marry at age 17, but had no children. He died as a captive in Turkey in 1678. Meanwhile Deverax Browne had died by 1673. On June 17, 1673, Tabitha applied for administration on the estate of Deverax Browne, confirming his death before that date.

Tabitha married her third husband, General John Custis of Arlington, in the mid 1670's, but the earliest reference to their marriage was in 1680. John Custis, Esq. was a Major General of Virginia, who served on the Govenor's Council. Tabitha and John Custis had no children together. In 1690 General John Custis made a deed gift of the personalty at the Deep Creek Plantation to Edmund Custis, his nephew (son of brother Thomas) whom he brought to Virginia as a minor, from "Baltamore in the Kingdom of Ireland." The land document also recited that young Edmund Custis had married Tabitha's granddaughter and namesake. In 1693 John and Tabitha Custis united in a deed of gift to Edmund for 1750 acres "for and in consideracon for the Love and affection wee have and beare to our well beloved Nephew and Grandson Edmund Custis in the County of Accomack in Virginia aforesaid, Gentlemen, and Tabitha his now wife, our Granddaughter." General John Custis died at age 66 on January 29, 1696.

Later the same year Tabitha entered into a marriage agreement with Colonel Edward Hill of Charles City County on September 28, 1696. As a result of her evident personal charm and great worldy possessions, she apparently made a good bargain, judging by two concessions in the agreement made by Edward Hill:

. . . "and have by these presents given and granted to the said Tabitha Custis in case she survives me after this my Intended Marriage with her the full and juste Sume of five hundred pounds Sterling . . . and that shee hold and enjoy to her owne proper use and behoof her bed and furniture thereunto belonging and all her Rings, Jewells, Locketts, Necklaces and wearinge Apparrell of what kind so ever to bee wholly and Solely at her free and absolute disposal."

The marriage took place shortly thereafter. There were no children born of the union and Colonel Edward Hill died in 1700. After his death Tabitha returned to the Shore and for the rest of her life she appears in the records as Mrs. or Madame Tabitha Hill. She made her home on her original patent land, and from there made visits to friends and relatives.

Madame Tabitha Hill died in 1717 having lived to be nearly 80 years old. Her will was probated on January 7, 1718/19. The only specific bequest was made to Ann, the second wife of her great-grandson Thomas Custis, who was given "my wearing stays embroidered with gold, my black suit and silk clothes and black stays set with bugles and one cloath of silver pettycoat."

The Portrait

There is a tradition that Tabitha's portrait was painted in London by Sir Peter Lely, and if so this was probably during her marriage to Deverax Browne, as he was a merchant and made several voyages across the ocean. The portrait is in existence today, but there is some uncertanty about its travels in the interval.

In the 1704 inventory of the Edmund Custis estate is listed "Maddm. Hill's pickture," but the disposition of it is not given. Naturally it should have gone to her namesake, Tabitha Scarburgh Custis, daughter of Edmund, who married Henry Custis, but it did not appear in the wills or inventories of that line and the records were silent on the subject for over a hundred years after the date of the inventory.

In the will of Thomas Bayly in 1808 "the picture of Mrs. Hill" was mentioned as then hanging in the halls at Hill's Farm, but no direct family connection has been found, its presence there cannot be explained. Bayly left it to his grandson, John H. Bayly, son of Edmund, but there is a family tradition that because the portrait showed the extreme decolletage fashionable in that period, his wife would not let him accept the bequest, and it went to his uncle Thomas M. Bayly and so to Mount Custis.

Mrs. Evelyn M. B. Tiffany, a Bayly descendant, later took Tabitha's portrait and others from Mount Custis to her home in Baltimore. In her will of 1929 she left a substantial sum to the University of Virginia to erect the Thomas H. Bayly Memorial Building, and in addition left portraits and other personal effects to be displayed there. Tabitha's portrait now hangs there in an appropriate place.

Meanwhile art critics have said Tabitha's portrait is the work of a third rate artist and have doubted that it could have been done by the master, Sir Peter Lely. Since the photograph (taken in 1940 for the book, Virginia's Eastern Shore) was obtained, another earlier one has been found which put a very different face on the matter. This earlier photograph of the portrait is one made for Mrs. Tiffany in 1896 for her use as a gift to some of her Bayly relatives and several prints of it are in existence. Apparently at some time after that date, the portrait was repainted, the unfortunate result being clearly shown in the 1940 photograph.

2017 Update

At some point Tabitha Scarburgh's portrait was put into storage in the basement of the Thomas H. Bayly Memorial Building. Thirty years ago (abt. 1987) descendant and historian Dennis Custis ventured to the University of Virginia to locate the portrait of his ancestor Tabitha Scarburgh. He found it hadn't been on display since 1955 and he requested that Tabitha return to her native Eastern Shore to be displayed at the Ker Place Museum. The University of Virginia refused. In 2016 ladies on the board of the Fralin Museum of Art heard his story and promised to help him. On May 25, 2017 Tabitha Scarburgh returned to the Eastern Shore Ker Museum on limited, long term loan.
