Notes:

"He [Richard Tracy Esq.] married Barbara Lucy, pupil of Fox, the Martyrologist, she was the daughter of Thomas Lucy, of Charlecote, in Warwickshire, and it was her nephew on whom Shakespeare took revenge, by writing in one of his plays as Justice Shallow, as it was before Sir Thomas Lucy, Shakespeare was arraigned for deer stealing. Richard Tracy, Esq., of Stanway, and Barbara Lucy had three sons and three daughters. He was sheriff of Gloucestershire in 1560, Barbara Lucy, his wife, was a descendant in the sixteenth generation from Hugh de Mountfort, son of Gilbert de Gamet and Alice Mountfort, and great grand-son of Baldwin V, Count of Flanders, who married Alice, daughter of Richard II, King of France. Through her ancestress, Judith, wife of Baldwin, the first Count of Flanders, Barbara Lucy descended from the Emperor Charlemagne, and through his ancestors, Alfritha, wife of Baldwin II, Count of Flanders, she was descended from Alfred the Great, and other Saxon kings of England." pages 6-7

Notes:

Lucy, Shakespeare, and Anti-CatholicismSir Thomas Lucy, the English Warwickshire squire who is traditionally associated with the youth of William Shakespeare, was born on the 24th of April 1532, the son of William Lucy, and was descended, according to Dugdale, from Thurstane de Cherlecote, whose son Walter received the village of Charlecote from Henry de Montfort about 1190. Walter is said to have married into the Anglo-Norman family of Lucy, and his son adopted the mother's surname. Three of Sir Thomas Lucy's ancestors had been sheriffs of Warwickshire and Leicestershire, and on his father's death in 1552 he inherited Sherborne and Hampton Lucy in addition to Charlecote, which was rebuilt for him by John of Padua, known as John Thorpe, about 1558. By his marriage with Joyce Acton he inherited Sutton Park in Worcestershire, and became in 1586 high sheriff of the county. He was knighted in 1565. He is said to have been under the tutorship of John Foxe, who is supposed to have imbued his pupil with the Puritan principles which he displayed as knight of the shire for Warwick in the parliament of 1571 and as sherif of the county, but as Mrs. Carmichael Stopes points out Foxe only left Oxford in 1545, and in 1547 went up to London, so that the connection must have been short. He often appeared at Stratford-on-Avon as justice of the peace and as commissioner of musters for the county. As justice of the peace he showed great zeal against the Catholics, and took his share in the arrest of Edward Arden in 1583. In 1585 he introduced into parliament a bill for the better preservation of game and grain, and his reputation as a preserver of game gives some color to the Shakespearian tradition connected with his name. Nicholas Rowe, writing in 1710, told a story that Lucy prosecuted Shakespeare for deer-stealing from Charlecote Park in 1585, and that Shakespeare aggravated the offense by writing a ballad on his prosecutor. The trouble arising from this incident is said to have driven Shakespeare from Stratford to London. The tale was corroborated by Archdeacon Davies of Sapperton, Gloucestershire, who died in 1708. The story is not necessarily falsified by the fact that there was no deer park at Charlecote at the time, since there was a warren, and the term warren legally covers a preserve for other animals than hares or rabbits, roe-deer among others. Shakespeare is generally supposed to have caricatured the local magnate of Stratford in his portrait of Justice Shallow, who made his first appearance in the second part of Henry IV, and a second in the Merry Wives of Windsor. Robert Shallow is a justice of the peace in the county of Gloucester and his ancestors have the dozen white luces in their coats, the arms of the Lucys being three luces, while in Dugdale's Warwickshire (ed. 1656) there is drawn a coat-of-arms in which these are repeated in each of the four quarters, making twelve in all. There are many considerations which make it unlikely that Shallow represents Lucy, the chief being the noteworthy difference in their circumstances. Lucy was knighted in 1565 by The Earl of Leicester, and played host to Elizabeth at his home in 1572. A Justice of the Peace and Member of Parliament for Warwickshire at one time, Lucy was clearly a man to whom material wealth meant much. He employed forty servants and was allegedly viciously protective of his lands and the game found thereon. Clearly a Queen's man, he was also active in the intimidation of Catholics, aggressively raiding their homes after the Somerville Plot for signs of sedition. In 1584 he arbitrated in a dispute between one of his servants and Hamnet Sadler, a friend of William Shakespeare's. Lucy would have been widely disliked and even feared as an anti-Catholic enforcer. During Campion's mission he arrested and interrogated the Jesuit's supporters in the Stratford area. He was also responsible for raiding all the Arden family homes after the arrest of Edward Arden, and it was a retainer of his who had taken over the control of Stratford after the successful facing down of the northern rebellion. William, then, might have had good reason to feel enmity towards Lucy, a man who had persecuted some of his kinsmen to the grave and cast a shadow over the lives of every old Catholic family in the area. If the poaching myth is true, then Lucy may well have been the reason William left Stratford. Lucy's death in 1600 came at a time of great family scandal, when his granddaughter eloped with a servant. Shakespeare is thought to have used Lucy as the inspiration for the character of Justice Shallow in "The Merry Wives of Windsor."


William Lucy 1511-1551

William married Anne, daughter of Richard Fermor of Easton Neston, Northamptonshire, a merchant of the Staple of Calais. The second of their five daughters, Jane, marrried George Verney of Compton and is buried at Compton Verney. The third, Maria, married Christopher Hales of Meriden, friend of the reformers Bullinger and Sturmius, an exile at Zurich during the Marian persecutions with his elder brother, John Hales of Coventry. William Lucy, an ardent friend to the New Learning, connected by marriage with Bishop Latimer, engaged John Foxe the martyrologist to be his son's tutor.

Sir married Anne Fermor in 1531 in Neston, Northamptonshire, England. Anne was born in 1515 in Easton, Northamptonshire, England; died in 1553 in Charlecote, Warwickshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

DANIEL LUCY, the first recorded Lucy in America, emigrated to Jamestown, Virginia on the ship 'Susan' in June 1624. Research has suggested that Daniel Lucy was the son of Timothy Lucy and Susanna Fanshawe, the youngest son of Sir William Lucy (c1510-1551) and Ann Fermer of Charlecote.

Daniel Lucy was given a patent of four acres of land on Jamestown Island and served on two juries. Present day descendents are related to his eldest son Samuel Lucy (1618-1662). Daniel died in Virginia in 1627, owing five hundred pounds of tobacco to his kinsman, RICHARD KINGSMILL.

Daniel Lucy was given a patent of four acres of land on Jamestown Island and served on two juries. Present day descendents are related to his eldest son Samuel Lucy (1618-1662). Daniel died in Virginia in 1627, owing five hundred pounds of tobacco to his kinsman, RICHARD KINGSMILL. Richard's parents are believed to be Sir William Kingsmill (1555-1618) and Anne Wilkes. Sir William Kingsmill was the cousin of CONSTANCE KINGSMILL, the wife of Sir Thomas Lucy (1551-1605) of Charlecote. The full genealogy is scheduled below.

When King James I assumed responsibility for the colony of Virginia after he dissolved the Virginia Company of London in 1624, he ordered Virginia's leaders to make a record of the colony's inhabitants and their provisions. RICHARD KINGSMILL (spelt Kingsmell) with his wife Jane, son Nathaniell (aged 5) and daughter Susan (aged 1) were resident at the 'Neck-of-Land' near 'James Citty' in the Virgina Muster (survey) of 4th February 1624/25. His servants are recorded as Horten Wright, John Jackson, Isbell Pratt and Edward (a negro). Richard arrived on the ship 'Delaware' while his wife and servant on the ship 'Susan'. This is the first census ever held in America. There is no record of Daniel Lucy in the survey as her arrived in Jamestown later the same year. Richard Kingsmill owned five houses and one boat at this location.

In 1619 the second church minister at Jamestown, the Rev. Richard Buck (1582-1624) had patented 750 acres of land in the 'Neck-of-Land' for the first time; the land separated by water from the north side of Jamestown Island. Buck apparently relied on indentured servants to improve the land, including his caretaker, Richard Kingsmill. On Buck's death in 1624, the land passed to his caretaker and Richard became the guardian of his children. In 1624 there were many transient tenants working the land on 100-200 acre plots, primarily for Kingsmill, who also owned a house in Jamestown and served on the General Assemblies of 1624, 1625 and 1629. Both Richard and his wife had died by 1638 leaving an only heir, their daughter Elizabeth who was born at 'Neck-of-Land' in 1625. This area eventually became known as the Kingsmill tobacco plantation.

The surname of LUCY was a locational name 'of Luci', a parish in the arrondissement of Neufchatel in Normandy, France. The name was borne by a young Sicilian maiden and an aged Roman widow, both martyred under Diocletian and venerated as saints. Local names derive from a place name, indicating where the man held land, or the place from which he had come, or where he actually lived. Many of the French place-names denote the seat of noble families, but many of the modern surnames merely indicate migration from a French place. The name was taken to Ireland by settlers from Oxfordshire, where it was spelt O'Luasaigh, mainly a County Cork name. The earliest French hereditary surnames are found in the 12th century, at more or less the same time as they arose in England, but they are by no means common before the 13th century, and it was not until the 15th century that they stabilized to any great extent; before then a surname might be handed down for two or three generations, but then abandoned in favour of another. In the south, many French surnames have come in from Italy over the centuries, and in Northern France, Germanic influence can often be detected. When the sparse Irish population began to increase it became necessary to broaden the base of personal identification by moving from single names to a more definite nomenclature. The prefix MAC was given to the father's christian name, or O to that of a grandfather or even earlier ancestor. At first the coat of arms was a practical matter which served a function on the battlefield and in tournaments. With his helmet covering his face and armour encasing the knight from head to foot, the only means of identification for his followers, was the insignia painted on his shield and embroidered on his surcoat, the draped and flowing garment worn over the armour. Early records of the name mention Godfrey de Lucey of the County of Lincolnshire in 1273. Reginald de Lucy was listed in the Yorkshire Poll Tax of 1379.A powerful Anglo-Norman family called Lucy, took their name from Luce in Orne, Normandy. Richard de Lucy (died 1179) was a baron and chief justiciary of England. He fought in Normandy and commanded the castle of Falaise, returning to England in 1140. His son Godfrey de Lucy (died 1204) became bishop of Winchester in 1189.

Notes:

Joseph Allen was born just before 1765, probably in Virginia. He received a Military Land Warrant #848 for three years' service in the Virginia line on 17 June 1783. He is listed as serving in the 2nd Virginia Brigade or State Line, Colonel Marshall's Artillery Regiment.
What is now Kentucky was previously part of the state of Virginia. In December 1776 Kentucky Co., Virginia was created. In 1780 it was divided into Fayette, Jefferson and Lincoln Counties. In 1785, Bourbon County was created from Fayette County and Joseph appears on 19 Sep 1787 (?) as a signer of a petition to the state of Virginia to create Bourbon County. Mason County was formed from Bourbon County in 1788 and finally in 1798 Fleming County was formed from Mason County. Joseph Allen had lived in four counties without moving.

Joseph Allen appears on the list for Central Kentucky Militia in 1786 in Captain Cave Johnson's Company along with a William Walker and Henry Chandler

On 3 Sep 1788 Joseph Allen married Dorothy Walker in Bourbon Co., Kentucky. Thought Dorothy was listed as "of age" her guardians were George and Eliza? Elijah Wood.

On 21 Aug 1790, Joseph Allen appears as the only Allen in the 1790 Kentucky Tax List.

On 27 August 1793 Joseph Allen purchased lot #42 in the town of Washington, Mason Co., Kentucky from William Wood and Arthur Fox and their wives. This town was developed as a possible capitol city for Kentucky. Joseph is listed there in the census as a blue dyer by occupation.

Joseph and Dorothy Allen were the parents of at least nine children-five girls and four boys. Daughters were Nancy m. Nathaniel Chandler, Mariah m. Nathaniel Chandler (after death of her sister), Margaret m. William McCord Sr., and Elizabeth who married Thomas Owen Caywood. Sons were James F. Allen who married Mary Hyzer, Joseph, Henry L. Allen who married Elizabeth Sullivan and William H Allen who married Eliza Reader. Many descendants of this family moved into Daviess County, Indiana.

In 1793 Joseph Allen was appointed in Mason County as a trustee for land and boundary formation.
Joseph Allen appears in the 1800 census of Kentucky in Mason County. Other Allens in that county were Adam, Barnabas, Hugh, and William. A Robert Allen appeared in Fleming Co. Joseph Allen appears in the 1810 Census of Mason County, Kentucky (with four male children and five female children in addition to himself and Elizabeth, his wife). Joseph Allen appears in the 1820 census of Fleming Co, Kentucky with one male 45+, a female 26-45, a female 16-26, and one male and one female 0-10.

Shortly after, Joseph Allen died 24 September 1822 in Fleming County, Kentucky. His estate bill of sale named William Mc Cord, Sr. as the administrator. Among those purchasing items at the sale were: Benjamin Allen, William Frealts, Nathaniel Chandler, William McCord, John McCord, Jr., Thomas Caywood, Thomas McCarty, Joseph Thomson, William McCord Sr., John McCord, Jesse Hickman, James McCord Jr., James McCord, and Erasmus Caywood.
Items found in the sale included ten books, a Bible, a razor and razor strap, a set of weights, a sifter, two candlesticks, two smoothing irons, a sprouting hoe, a shovel, a coffee mill,a pair of knives and forks, two hoes, a keg, an ink stand, two buckets, a teakettle, a pair of snuffers, a big wheel, a bell, three bedstands, a blanket, a hackel, six chairs, a chest, two big kettles, a pot, a tub, a big coat, a coat, two pair pantaloons, a hat, a pair of shoes, a table, a candlestand, two washing tubs, a pair of specks, a howel, thirteen big spools and Chandler's note worth $733.

Notes:

James Allen was born in Mason County, Kentucky in 1789. Kentucky at that time was part of Virginia. Daniel Boone blazed a trail through the Cumberland Gap, founded Boonesborough which was the 1st chartered town in Kentucky, and lived there from 1775 to 1779.
Mason County was formed in 1788 and Kentucky became a state in 1792.His Dad, Joseph Allen, was in the Virginia Line of the Revolutionary War, and appeared in the 1790 and 1800 US Census.
James married Mary Hyzer in Mason County March 20, 1810. He was 20, just 2 months shy of his 21st birthday and she was 19. They had their 1st 5 Children in Mason County. Then left for Indiana in 1819 where James bought land in Reeve Township, Daviess County. Indiana had just become the 19th state in 1816 so once again the Allen family were true pioneers.
The Allen Family farm is located about 2 miles SouthWest of Alfordsville but, of course there was no Alfordsville then, not till 1850. He and his sons cleared the land and like nearly all of the early settlers there were farmers.
1n 1823 his Mother-in-law, Elizabeth Zumwakt Hyzer, died and was buried where Old Union Church and Cemetery is now. She was the 1st person buried at Old Union. James with a couple of his friends would build a raft, load it up with produce and furs, and float down the White River, to the Ohio, to the Mississippi, and on down to New Orleans where they would sell their load as well as the raft then walk back to Indiana. About in 1835 he didn't return - could have been a wreck of the raft on the river, killed by Indians or the Cave In The Rock gang from southern Illinois, or a robber in the city. He left Mary with 11 kids, the youngest was Eliza who was only 4.
Mary never remarried and it was up to the oldest,Charles,to farm the land and help keep the family together.
