Notes:

Thomas entered college at Oxford on 15 Oct 1624 and received his BA on May 7 1628 and his MA on 17 Jan 1631/32. He was first appointed as Rector of Easington, Oxfordshire in 1632. In a history about Cheshire, the following information applies to this Reverend Thomas Mallory. "Between his matriculation and his appointment to the living of Northenden, (Cheshire), Thomas Mallory junior was a curate, perhaps at Davenham (was Easington, Oxfordshire according to Virginia Heraldic). His younger brother, George, was curate under his father at Mobberley. By 1635 Thomas Mallory junior had acquired a wife, Jane, and children, one of whom, Franàces, was bequeathed 20 guineas, a very substantial sum, by Bishop Forster. But the curate installed at Northenden in 1616, a Mobberley man called Ralph Lowndes, still lived at the parsonage in Northenden. Thomas Mallory came to Northenden in 1640 after the death of Ralph Lowndes. By then his first wife had died and he had married Mary. So at the time of the siege Mallory was very much a newcomer to his parish.

His presence in the garrison was probably one of necessity, as well as conviction. He was ejected from the parsonage by the Parliamentarians in September 1643, at the same time as Tatton's step-father, Dr Nicholls, was ejected from the living of Cheadle.(15)

Mrs. Mary Mallory and her large family were allowed to remain in the parsonage, unmolested by the Parliamentarians, at least until the arrival of Henry Dunster in 1645, when she retired to the small cottage that was part of the glebe lands, all the time drawing a fifth of her husband's stipend and farming part of the glebe lands." (E) His 2nd wife is listed by the name of Frances in other sources, including the "Virginia Heredic".

On July 30 1660, he was made Canon of Chester. He was the Rector of Eccleston, in county Lancaster, England, a royalist minister according to the "Encyclopedia of Virginia Biography". He died 11 years later at Brindle near Eccleston, Lancashire. His will names sons Roger and Thomas in Virgina. (F-650)

In his will he mentions sons Roger and Thomas in Virginia. All of Thomas children apparently weren't in his will, as I've found two children listed clearly in VA, that aren't on the normal list for his children. His children in Virginia do not have DNA that matches our Peter of Connecticut.

Notes:

Somewhere on the coast of Ireland, a ship stood at anchor. A small boy was playing on the shore with other lads. His mother, in the usual crowd of onlookers, was intent on getting news of her home in Chesire, a short day's sail across the Irish Sea. After a while, a man approached and invited the boys tocome and see the ship. They were hesitant, but he offered a knife to each boy if he would come on board to get it. Those who did go aboard were seized, gagged, and hidden, and the ship sailed off with them. The story goes that one of the boys was named John Ford, and he was "about eight years old." The ship arrived at the port of Kicotan (now called Hampton), at the mouth of the James River. John was taken ashore and offered for sale (indenture). It was the custom in the colony for widows, orphans and abandoned children to be cared for by the vestry, under the charge of the minister of the local parish, following the Anglican practice in England.

The Rev. Phillip Mallory was rector of Hampton Parish at this time. He recognized John at once, as he had known his family in Sandbach Parish in County Chester. The minister had been pastor of Moberly Parish, only a short distance from Abbeyfield Park, the Ford homeplace. The Rev. Phillip Mallory soon had the boy released, probably paying the cost of passage. From then on, John's home was in the Mallory household, where he was fed, clothed, and given an education. Sixteen years later, John Ford married the niece of the Rev. Phillip Mallory. She was Mary, daughter of the Rev. Thomas Mallory, Dean of the Cathedral Church in Chester, England. Mary's name appears in her father's will, 1671, which speaks of her as the wife of John Ford in Virginia.

The Rev. Phillip Mallory returned to England and died in London in 1661. His will, dated July 23, 1661 and probated July 27, 1661 names "nephew Roger Mallory all my plantations in Virginia." Since Mary was the younger sister of Capt. Roger Mallory, it is possible that she made her home with him. His name appears in a number of county records, all indicating that as a land owner, he was of the "gentleman class." John Ford's people, as land owners, were also of the same social standing. The custom of education of apprenticeship, common in England, would naturally be followed in the colony. Thus John would be brought up to the position of a Virginia gentleman, if indeed he did form part of Captain Roger Mallory's household.

The Mallory's bought and sold land in the Northern Neck region of the colony as well as in the York River valley. When John Ford's name appears in the county records he is found living on Rappahannock Creek, close to the point where the creek runs into the Rappahannock River. The Rev. Phillip Mallory at one time owned 1,000 acres of land on Fleet's Bay in "Old" Rappahannock County.

Mary married John Ford in 1660 in , King and Queen, Virginia, USA. John (son of John Ford, Jr. and Elizabeth Phillipe) was born in 1636 in Abbeyfield Park, Sandbach Parish, Cheshire, England; died on 6 Mar 1699 in Richmond, Independent Cities, Virginia, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
