|
| 2002 | According to Reed-Claggett-Neff, "John sold his plantation in Charles Co, MD in 1790, came to Kentucky in 1793, settled at Fredericktown, Washington Co., KY." | Wheatley, John (I1217)

|
| 2005 | According to An Outline History of the Swihart Family in America (citation details below), he was a son of Gabriel Swinehart, Jr. (d. 1805) and his wife Barbara Ripling, Gabriel being a son of Gabriel and Esther Swinehart (dates of birth and death unknown), this earlier Gabriel being a son of George Swinehart of Prince George County, Maryland, born about 1710, probably an immigrant from Germany, and his wife Margaret. We find it hard to believe in four generations born in 46 years and we suspect that while all of these people were quite possibly related, something in this narrative is deeply confused. | Swihart, Peter (I34844)

Mrs. Harter gave birth to a daughter, her first child, while crossing the St. Lawrence River in a canoe. This daughter, Catherine, later married Michael Myers." Early Families of Herkimer County, New York says only that "Hendrick was captured when the French burned German Flats in 1757 and had to run Indian gauntlet." | Harter, Henry (I23414)
|
| 2017 | According to History and Genealogy of the Family of Thomas Noble, citation details below, both Ebenezer Bush and Miriam Noble "joined Westfield church March 19, 1727," and both were "cut off as a Separate, Sept. 5, 1750." | Bush, Ebenezer (I9731)
|
| 2018 | According to History of the Town of Goshen, Connecticut (citation details below), she was a "sister to the father of Gov. Tilden." | Tilden, Lois (I15432)
|
| 2019 | According to Magna Britannia (vol. 6, pp. 430-431), she was "one of the co-heiresses of Sir Thomas Pyne", a holder of the manor of Shute, "anciently called Schete", but her specific relationship to Thomas Pyne is unstated. | de Shute, Hawise (I4911)

|
| 2022 | According to Robert Cole's World, he "served in three unelected assemblies but was not a man of great wealth." | Gardiner, Richard (I35742)
|
| 2023 | According to Royal Ancestry (citation details below), Thomas Holford and Jane Booth were married by dispensation, being related in the 3rd equal and 3rd and 4th mixed degrees of affinity. What we can see is that Jane Booth was a G3-granddaughter of Maud Swynnerton (b. 1370) by her third wife John Savage, and Thomas Holford was a G4-grandson of Maud by her second wife William Ipstones. | Holford, Thomas (I15187)
|
| 2024 | According to The Ancestry of Charles II (citation details below) they married by proxy in Paris on 1 May 1625 or 11 May 1625, and in person at Canterbury 13 June 1625 or 23 June 1625. | Family F17717
|
| 2025 | According to The Ancestry of Eva Belle Kempton 1878-1908, Part I (citation details below), this Elizabeth was "possibly" the mother of Sufferanna Haynes. | Elizabeth (I6092)
|
| 2026 | According to The Blackmans of Knight's Creek (citation details below), Robert de Grey "was granted Rotherfield by his brother Walter de Grey, archbishop of York." More detail in this 2 Dec 2010 John Watson post to SGM: In 1086 Rotherfield Greys was held by Anketil de Grey under William FitzOsbern (d. 1071). The mesne tenancy of Rotherfield Greys descended presumably through Anketil's son Richard to his grandson Robert, who held the manor in 1166 and who apparently died childless. Thereafter the manor passed to Robert's nephew John (d. by 1192), his brother Anketil's son. John's daughter and heir Eve married the royal judge Ralph Murdac, who was lord in 1192 but whose lands were forfeited in 1194 for rebellion. Rotherfield Greys was restored to Eve and her second husband, Andrew de Beauchamp, probably before 1200. Although not without heirs, before 1240 and possibly as early as 1215 Eve gave the manor to her kinsman Walter de Grey, archbishop of York, who settled it on his brother Robert de Grey. [VCH Oxfordshire Texts in Progress (Rotherfield Greys) - Nov 06 - © University of London] | de Grey, Robert (I11625)
|
| 2027 | According to The Blackmans of Knight's Creek and The Ancestry of Dorothea Poyntz, he and his wife died on the same day, which to our minds suggests some sort of pestilence. | Quatermayne, Thomas (I11197)
|
| 2028 | According to The Livezey Family (citation details below), he and his wife came from Tayne in Staffordshire and emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1699 as fellow-passengers with William Penn on his second voyage. In 1707 he built the first mill at Wells Ferry, now New Hope, in Bucks county, Pennsylvania. | Heath, Robert (I20271)
|
| 2029 | According to The Parochial and Family History of the Deanery of Trigg Minor [citation details below], he was knight of the shire for Cornwall, 1332. But Complete Peerage says that "none of [Thomas l'Arcedekne's] descendants were ever sum. to Parl. in respect of this Barony." CP, and The Wallop Family, both note that this John l'Arcedekne was summoned to a Council 1341/2; presumably this is one of those councils not held to have been a true Parliament. "Sir John l'Arcedekne, of Ruan Lanihorne, aged 25 and more at his father's death, had livery of his lands 15 Sep. 1331. He was sum. to a Council 25 Feb. (1341/2) 16 Edw. III. He served in the French wars 1345. He had pardon 6 Nov. 1351, and again 26 May 1352, for having escaped from Launceston Castle, where he had been imprisoned. He m. by Papal disp. dated 23 Dec. 1327 (being within the fourth degree of consanguinity), Cecily, da. and h. of Jordan Haccombe, of Haccombe, Devon, by Isabel, da. of Mauger de St. Aubin. She was living in 1365. He was living 30 Oct. 1370/1, and d. before 21 Dec. 1377. Will pr. at Clyst 27 Jan. 1390/1 [sic]." [Complete Peerage I:187, as corrected in volume XIV.] | l'Arcedekne, John (I8182)
|
| 2030 | According to The Scots Peerage (citation details below), he was also known as Bartholomew. He is only known from charters referring to his son. | Bertolff (I34951)
|
| 2031 | According to The Scots Peerage, after the death of David II, his ex-wife Margaret persuaded the Church to annul their divorce, which accomplishment "seriously disturbed the mind of Scotland." | Family F14310
|
| 2032 | According to The Wentworth Genealogy (citation details below), the will of Ezekiel Knight "gave to his wife Mary all his estate for life; at her death, two thirds were to go to son Ezekiel Knight, jr., and one third to daughter Elizabeth Wentworth, of Cocheco." Evidently there were exactly two and only two Elizabeth Wentworths in Cocheco at the time, thus establishing that Ezekiel Knight was the father of either the wife of Elder William Wentworth or of the wife of his son Ezekiel. We show him as the former, but either way he's a direct ancestor of TNH. "He was Commissioner for the town of Wells 1654, 1662, 1663; on the grand jury 29 June 1654; one of seventy-one petitioners to Oliver Cromwell, 12 August 1656, that they remain under the Massachusetts government in 1663, was one of the Associate Justices, and when the authority of the King's Commissioners ended (which continued from 1665 to 1668), he was immediately re-chosen. [...] In 1661, 1 July, it was 'Ordered by this Court that,' while Wells was without a minister, 'Ezekiel Knight and William Hammond shall duly attend the place of public meeting on the Lord's day, and they improve their best abilities in Speaking out of the Word of God, Praying, Singing of Psalms and reading some good Orthodox Sermons.'" [The Wentworth Genealogy] "Of Puritan inclination, he gained great prominence on the ascension of Massachusetts [over Maine]." [Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire, citation details below.] | Knight, Ezekiel (I10678)
|
| 2033 | According to VCH Lancaster (citation details below), he definitely died before Easter 1200, but he may have died in 1197. | de Windle, Alan (I36007)
|
| 2034 | According to Wetmore Memorial, she was descended from the martyred Rev. John Rogers, and from Connecticut governor George Wyllys. Some sources locate her as the daughter of a Joseph Wright of Middletown, but the Middletown records appear to clearly show her as the daughter of William Wright and his wife Lucy (or Lucia). | Wright, Mary (I16085)
|
| 2035 | According to a biographical questionnaire for New Mexicans serving in the armed forces that he filled out in 1947, he graduated with a bachelor's degree from the University of New Mexico in 1938, and from Harvard Medical School with an MD in 1942. He was inducted into the Army Medical Corps in 1943 in Boston, with the rank of captain, and served at Camp Hood, Texas; Camp Haan in Riverside County, California; and at the office of the Surgeon General in Washington, DC. He was discharged in 1946. As of 1947 he was a physician practicing in Washington, DC. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs BIRLS Death File (citation details below), he enlisted on 3 Jul 1943 and was discharged 30 Jun 1946. According to the U.S., Social Security Death Index, 1935-2014 (citation details below), in 1961-62 he was living in Santa Barbara, California. According to the I.S. Public Records Index, 1950-93, on ancestry.com, he was still living there in 1993. | Higgins, George Alfred Jr. (I27531)
|
| 2036 | According to a DAR lineage book, he "commanded a company of minute men on the Lexington Alarm and in 1779 was made lieutenant colonel of the 10th Massachusetts regiment. He was born in Brimfield, Mass.; died in Marietta, Ohio." According to his son's 1832 testimony, Joseph Thompson was a major in "Col. Nixon's Regiment", was then transferred to Col. Thomas Marshall's regiment at West Point, and was captured by the enemy in an engagement at Tarrytown. | Thompson, Joseph (I27821)
|
| 2037 | According to a Fulham genealogy quoted by Douglas Richardson, "Edward Goddard...was once very wealthy but afterwards much reduced by oppression during the civil war. He belonged to the Parliament side, his house was beset and demolished by a company of cavaliers, who also plundered his substance. He escaped through the midst of them in disguise but died soon after." | Goddard, Edward (I15069)
|
| 2038 | According to a letter from A. R. Pickering, District Librarian of the London borough of Hackney, published in 1977 in Swinnerton Family History (volume 2, number 9), in 1588, which would have been two years after his marriage to Thomasine Buckfold, John Swinnerton "purchased of Stephen Buckfold two messuages, two tofts, two gardens and three acres of pasture land in Hackney. In the Exchequer Lay Subsidy of 1598 he was assessed on this property in Hackney at £20 and paid on it £2.13.4d." At a guess Stephen Buckfold was very likely a brother of Thomasine, whose maternal grandfather was also named Stephen. Pickering's letter further notes that "a William Swinnerton (perhaps [Sir John Swinnerton's] son?) gave 2s in 1605 toward the restoration of [Hackney] church, another son was buried in Hackney churchyard on the 16th July 1616." The offspring of Sir John Swinnerton appear to be fully documented and include neither a son named William nor a son who died in 1616. Possibly both of these individuals were brothers to the City politician, additional sons of John Swinnerton of Oswestry, but the only son mentioned in the nuncupative will of the elder John Swinnerton (taken by Peirce Williams) is "Sir John Swynnarton Knight Citizen and Alderman of London." | Buckfold, Thomasine (I17018)
|
| 2039 | According to a memoir by his son Noah, this Noah Packard was "one who assisted in the Revolutionary struggle with Great Britain, in obtaining American Liberties; he was in the American army at the taking of General Burgoine and his army." | Packard, Noah (I3824)
|
| 2040 | According to a note written on the back of a group photo of the Coston siblings, he died of (presumably the complications of) epilepsy. | Coston, John Francis (I10027)
|
| 2041 | According to a spirit-duplicated document in the papers of Paul Leslie Crandall (d. 1987), probably written by Warren Packer, Eve Williams was "said to have lived in Fayette County, Pennsylvania at the time of her marriage to Moses Packer." | Williams, Eve (I2639)
|
| 2042 | According to Alice D. Serrell (citation details below), he served in the American army in the Revolution and was granted land near Brooklyn, New York. | Swayze, Joseph (I22571)
|
| 2043 | According to an account book labelled "Thomas Speakman, His Book, 1711", found by a descendant, he sailed for America from Gravesend, Kent on 7 Aug 1712, stopping at Plymouth, Devon on 21 Aug before setting out across the ocean. He presented his certificate to the Philadelphia Monthly Meeting on 9 Nov 1712. Like his father, he was a sawyer. | Speakman, Thomas (I6636)
|
| 2044 | According to an email from John Watson quoted on Jim Weber's site, Isabel de Fernielaw -- who is given in CP merely as "sister of John de Fernielaw" -- was probably also a sister of Thomas de Fernielaw, Chancellor of York, and all three siblings were probably the issue of one Robert de Fernielaw. | de Fernielaw, Isabel (I734)
|
| 2045 | According to Anderson and Threlfall (citation details below), "poss. daughter of Henry Woodward." | Margaret (I35286)
|
| 2046 | According to Andrew B. W. MacEwen (citation details below), it was Eva, first wife of Alan Fitz Walter, who was the mother of his children, not his second wife Alesta, daughter of Morggán, Earl of Mar. Eva has been said to be a daughter of Swain, son of Thor, the latter having been the first recorded sheriff of Lothian. The truth of this is the subject of inconclusive controvery stretching back at least a century. | Eva (I4327)
|
| 2047 | According to Bartlett (citation details below), her husband's cousin Thomas (b. 1583), son of his farther's brother John Chandler (b. abt. 1525), was also buried on 11 Mar 1607, which to us suggests a local outbreak of pestilence -- not at all uncommon in southern England in the first decade of the seventeenth century. | Page, Joan (I14676)
|
| 2048 | According to Benjamin Sulte (citation details below), in 1600 he did homage to Henri IV for the fief of Carufel. In 1615 and again in 1621, the fief of Carufel was set afire as part of the wave of religious conflict then sweeping southern France. Sources differ as to whether he died in 1619 or during or after the siege of Carufel in 1621. | Sicard de Carufel, Jean (I9965)
|
| 2049 | According to Bill O'Reilly of the Cornwall Online Parish Clerks project, the original record of his burial really does say 29 Feb 1782, notwithstanding that 1782 wasn't a leap year and no February 29 occurred in it. | Michell, Matthew (I692)
|
| 2050 | According to Boyer quoting Bartrum, this individual may have been a woman. "[M]any texts make Aldud a daughter of Owain, a mother of Owain, and wife of Ystifyn." | ab Owain ab Edwin, Aldud (I29543)
|
| 2051 | According to Bruce McAndrew (citation details below), he was kin to the earls of Fife. | of Leuchars, William (I3394)
|
| 2052 | According to Burke's A Genealogical History of the Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited and Extinct Peerages of the British Empire, she was a descendant of William le Blount who was brother to her husband's great-great grandfather Robert le Blount. | le Blount, Marie (I92)
|
| 2053 | According to Burke, quoted in the nineteenth-century DNB, he was a son of de Montfort supporter Adam de Gurdon, who, after Evesham, is supposed to have fought the future Edward I in single combat, and, although defeated, so impressed the prince that his life was spared and he went on to live several more decades as a soldier and forester. More recent scholarship tends to cast doubt on this. | Gurdon, Robert (I15800)
|
| 2054 | According to California records, he was naturalized on 1 Oct 1857 in Moniteau County, Missouri. "Another interesting bit of information about the original John Foley was that, once he got to America, he paid for the passage of some of his siblings to emigrate. I believe there were at least two sisters who came to America that way, because there are two characters who appear in some family stories that were referred to as John J's cousins. One was named Jim Hickey, and he came from back East (for some reason I think Bridgeport, CT), and another was named Sullivan and was a stone carver who lived right next to the Foley house at 50 S. 9th St., San Jose.' [Correspondence with Foley descendant Teri Smith, 2020] "John Foley […] came to the United States from Ireland in 1850, and for a while lived at New Orleans and worked on the steamboats plying on the Mississippi. Then he joined the U.S. Cavalry and saw service on the great plains for five years. After that, for two years, he was a pony express rider from Box Elder to Salt Lake City, and finally, in 1860, he came to California. Until 1863 he was at Virginia City, and on his return to San Jose, he sailed in steamer service from San Francisco to Panama. He married Miss Honora Fleming, an accomplished lady, the mother of our subject. John Foley died in December, 1916, but his devoted widow is still living. They had two boys and two girls, and one of the latter died in 1894. A brother and sister are living on the old home place with their mother, the lot of which was purchased by the wide-awake father in early days in the trade of a saddle horse." [History of Santa Clara, California, citation details below] | Foley, John (I31237)
|
| 2055 | According to Collinson's Somersetshire (citation details below), he married "Margaret, widow of Warin de Ralegh, and daughter of Lord Boteler of Overley." A Genealogical History of the House of Yvery (citation details below) says much the same thing. Warine de Ralegh of Nettlecombe, Somerset, who d. 1242, had a Margaret as his wife, and his son Warine, also of Nettlecombe, d. aft. 1256, married a Joanna Boteler whose parentage is, to the best of our knowledge, unestablished. | de Breteche, John (I29688)
|
| 2056 | According to CP (7:587), she was a granddaughter of Aldun, Bishop of Lindisfarne. | Sigfrid (I28948)
|
| 2057 | According to CP XIV, she may actually have been called Alice. The Ancestry of Dorothea Poyntz calls her "Agnes (?Alice) de Blundeville". | of Chester, Agnes (I1366)
|
| 2058 | According to CP, she was a niece of Thomas le Waleys, Bishop of St. David's 1248-55. | de Waleys, Maud (I6325)
|
| 2059 | According to Cyrus Parkinson Beatty Sarchet's History of Guernsey County, Ohio, "Thomas Moore never came to this county [Guernsey County, Ohio] to live but he and his wife went to Missouri, and there spent their days." That would have to be Thomas Moore's second wife, Sarah Doran, daughter of Alexander Doran. The identity of his first wife is unknown. | Moore, Thomas (I26582)
|
| 2060 | According to DAR lineage books, in the Revolution he was a private in the Connecticut line under Colonels Gay, Terry, Chapman, and Pease. "He enlisted in 1776 in Capt. Simon Walcott's company; served in 1778 under Capt. Amasa Loomis and Capt. Richard Pitkin. 1779 under Capt. Bush. A pension was allowed in 1832 for 14 months actual service as a private in the Connecticut line." [Button Families of America] Notwithstanding the inconsistency between the DAR and Button Families accounts of his service, he did in fact receive a pension in 1832, although the document is unspecific beyond saying that he served as a private. | Button, Jonathan (I17393)
|
| 2061 | According to Douglas Richardson (SGM, 11 Jan 2007), there is no evidence that the William de Tracy who held the baronage of Bradninch, and whose son was one of the murderers of Becket, was the same person as the William de Tracy who was an illegitimate son of Henry I. There is also no evidence that this William de Tracy was the father of a Grace who married John de Sudely, or that her surname was "de Tracy" at all. | de Tracy, William (I1645)
|
| 2062 | According to Douglas Richardson (citation details below), in addition to serving as a knight of the shire for Worcestershire in the two parliaments of 1377 as mentioned below, he also performed the same function in 1380. From Wikipedia (accessed 13 Apr 2021): He served under John of Gaunt in the Spanish campaign of 1372 and in 1373 obtained a grant of a yearly fair at a place called 'le Rode' in the parish of Holt, on the day of St. Mary Magdalene. A favourite of the ailing King Edward III, in the years 1370 to 1375 he received several grants of offices, including the constableship of Bridgnorth Castle. He was elected as a Member of Parliament for Worcestershire to Edward III's last parliament (January 1377) and Richard II's first (October 1377). Richard II regarded him warmly, and acted as godfather to his son. Retained in the household, Beauchamp soon received substantial further patronage, and by 1384 he had been made Receiver of the Chamber and Keeper of the King's Jewels. He received the Order of Knighthood on Richard II's entry into Scotland in 1385. That December he was granted for life the office of Justiciar of North Wales, to which was added in August 1386 a charter of liberties within his recently purchased estate at Kidderminster. Even though the Commons demanded in October that a new Steward of the Household be appointed only in parliament, Richard II refused to comply, and in January 1387 he promoted Beauchamp to the stewardship. Even more provocative was Sir John's creation on 10 October following as 'Lord of Beauchamp and Baron of Kidderminster', a new dignity to be maintained from the estates of Deerhurst Priory. This was the first creation of a peerage by letters patent. He was probably the builder of Holt Castle. Beauchamp's rapid rise from esquire to baron could not be borne by the Lords Appellant, who included his kinsman, Thomas Beauchamp, 12th Earl of Warwick. The latter probably saw the rise of his cousin as a threat to his dominance of the Midlands. Arrested and imprisoned along with three other household knights, Lord Beauchamp was impeached in the Merciless Parliament in 1388 and condemned by the lords for treason. He was beheaded on Tower Hill and was buried in Worcester Cathedral. Fortunately for his heir, John Beauchamp, 2nd Baron Beauchamp of Kidderminster, then aged eleven, he had entailed certain of his manors, so these were exempt from forfeiture. | Beauchamp, John (I34102)
|
| 2063 | According to Edith S. Wessler's not-necessarily-reliable The Jocelyn-Joslin-Joslyn-Josselyn Family (1961), he was a zealous Lancastrian and thus declared a rebel in 1461, his lands forfeit. | Josselyn, John (I27688)
|
| 2064 | According to Edythe Alma (Pearsall) Palmer (citation details below), he was already a widow when he was killed in the Civil War, orphaning his daughter Carolyn. | Green, Capt. John (I27683)
|
| 2065 | According to F. N. Craig (citation details below), in 1236 "custody during minority of the lands and heirs of John, son of Adulf de Gatesden, with the marriage of the heirs, was granted to John de Gatesden, king's clerk." In a lengthy footnote, Craig explains that "John de Gatesden, king's clerk" was a different individual from any of the descendants of Adulf de Gatesden. Instead he "appears to be the representative of the senior branch of the family of Adulf de Gatesden." He was sheriff of Surrey in 1228 and the queen's chamberlain in 1238. "In 1236 John de Gatesden, the king's clerk, gave 25 marks for having custody of the land and heirs of John, son of Aldulf de Gatesden, during the minority of the heirs, together with their marriage. Of John, the son of Aldulf, little but his name seems known. The grantee of the custody of his heirs was, however, a man of some importance in the earlier part of Henry's reign, being keeper of the queen's wardrobe, guardian of the bishopric of Winchester, envoy abroad of the king, and sheriff of Surrey and Sussex."

| 2068 | According to family lore, he was a colonel in the British army and was last heard from when stationed in the East Indies. | Burke, Edward (I20919)
|
| 2069 | According to Frank J. Doherty (citation details below), she may have been Tabitha Hoxie, daughter of Zebulon Hoxie and Sarah Irish of Beekman. | Tabitha (I3499)
|

| 2124 | According to researcher J. Kelsey Jones, writing in 1988, her date of birth is taking from a family Bible record. After the death of her husband Isaac DeWitt, Jerusha (Price) DeWitt removed with some of her children to Knox County, Ohio, perhaps around 1818. From Jerusha (Price) DeWitt's Find a Grave page, by J. Kelsey Jones: Jerusha purchased property 29 Apr 1820 (D:595-6) in Knox County, Ohio from John P. Lindley and his wife, Susannah, being in Section 2, Township 7, Range 14. Jerusha DeWitt of Chester township deeded (O:60) 32 acres on 13 Dec 1828 to Benjamin Pitman for $1 for "love and affection which I bear towards my daughter Jemima wife of the said Benjamin Pitman of Franklin township, in said County of Knox," containing 32 acres and 132 perches known as lot no. 3. On this same date Jerusha deeded (H:138-9) to "my daughter Susannah Dalrymple" of Marion County for $1 the southeast corner of her 1820 purchase, containing 32 acres and 137 perches known as lot 4. Also, on this same date, Jerusha deeded (M:324-5) the northeast corner of her 1820 purchase to Charles Mann for $1 for "love and affection which I bear towards my daughter Asuba Mann wife of the said Charles Mann of Marion County" containing 32 acres and 137 perches known as lot 1. Jerusha signed by mark on all land transfers. After selling these three parcels there remained 32 acres and 137 perches in the northwest corner of her 1820 purchase, which she sold (O:61) 23 Aug 1831 while a resident of Knox County to Benjamin Pitman for $120.00 and known as lot 2 (present Wayne township) in Section 2, Township 7, Range 14. Jerusha is not enumerated in the 1830 census enumeration with any of her known children (John DeWitt, Azuba Mann, Elizabeth Hazen, Susannah Dalrymple, Isaac DeWitt, or Catherine Struble) living in Ohio.

|
| 2132 | According to Rosie Bevan (citation details below), she may have been a sister of the chronicler Robert Fabian (d. 1513), and thus a daughter of Agnes Bonefey (d. 9 Sep 1484) by her first husband, John Fabyan, citizen and draper of London, who died in the mid-1450s. Agnes's second husband was Christopher Sharpe's older brother Nicholas Sharpe (d. 1473). John Fabyan was a son of Stephen Fabyan, cordwainer of Coggeshall, Essex, and his wife Joan. Agnes Bonefey was a daughter of Walter Bonefey, merchant of Colchester, bailiff there 1435-36, 1437-38, 1439-20, and MP for Colchester in 1437. His wife, first name unknown, was a daughter of John Olney (d. abt. 1457-58), whom Bevan (citation details below) describes as "an influential citizen, mercer and Alderman of London, and Merchant of the Staple of Calais. Olney was sheriff of London in 1432, mayor in 1446, Warden of the Mercer's Company in 1419, 1426, 1432, 1437, 1442 and 1454. He was a principal customer of the Borromei Bank having a turnover value in 1438-39 of £408 5s., and typically borrowed in branches in Middelburg, Antwerp and London where he dealt in wool, linen and other fabrics. Olney also acted as a host to the Italians and reported on goods imported, bought and sold to the exchequer. This was probably carried out at his mansion in Milk Street, which descended to Walter Bonefey's daughters and eventual heirs; Agnes, wife, first, of John Fabian and secondly Nicholas Sharpe; and Alice, wife, first, of John Pashley (d.1468) and secondly Richard Nanseglos." | Anne (I28222)

| 2138 | According to Taylor and West (citation details below), she married second at St. Mary Bredman, Canterbury, Kent, 29 September 1570, Richard Brissenden, and she was probably the "Jone Brissenden wife of Richard Brissenden" buried in Tenterden on 26 February 1598/9. | Joane (I5835)

| 2139 | According to the 1569 visitation of Worcestershire (citation details below), he was a son of Richard Power, son of Hugo Power, son of "Hughe Poerus [who] had by the guifte of Walter Bellocampo the mannor of Whitley to him & his heires & had yssue." | Power, John (I17812)

| 2141 | According to the 1717 Some Short Memorials Concerning the Life of that Reverend Divine Doctor Richard Field by Nathaniel Field, who was son of the theologian Richard Field who was son of this John Field by his first wife Margerie Gladman, John Feilde was the son of a Thomas Feilde (1502-1560), son of another Thomas Feilde (1475-1529), son of Ralph Feilde (b. abt. 1449). | Feilde, John (I30160)
|
| 2142 | According to the 1789 Peerage of Ireland, he accompanied Richard I on crusade in 1190, and lost a leg in an engagement in Palestine. He is said to have married a daughter of "William de Moion (Mohun), Lord of Dunster", but which of the several William de Mohuns of Dunster her father would have been eludes us; we have been unable to find any reference to any of their daughters marrying a Percival. He is also said by eighteenth-century sources, and by some editions of Burke's, to have been the fifth son of William Lovel (d. 1170) and his wife Maud (d. 1189. Called variously Maud of Meulan and Maud de Beaumont, this Maud was a daughter of Isabel de Vermandois by her first husband, Robert of Meulan, and through her mother a 10G-granddaughter of Charlemagne. But there seems to be no contemporary evidence that William Lovel and his wife Maud had more than three sons. And it would hardly be the only time that the 16th-through-18th-century descendants of a long line of backwoods gentry managed to discover an ancestry that connected them to highborn figures of the first millennium AD. | de Percival, Richard (I29686)

| 2148 | According to the 1900 census, his parents were born in Germany. The 1870 census for New York City (ward 1, district 4) shows a Wm F Klages, 20, born in New York, son of August Klages, 45, and Sophie, 40, both born in Hanover. Also in the 1870 census for New York City (ward 1, district 2), William Klages, 18, born New York, son of August Klages, 47, "merchant tailor", born Hanover, and Sophie, 48, born Prussia. | Klages, William Frederick (I12253)
|
| 2149 | According to the 1905 census of New York State, she emigrated to the US in 1845. Of course, this number might be off by several years. Family tradition has her maiden name as Starr. The record of her daughter's 1895 marriage, as a widow, to the widower Laurence King, gives it as Sahl, which is much more plausible for someone that, all records indicate, was born in Germany. On the other hand, the record of her daughter's first marriage, to Henry Kohl, gives it as "Star." | Sahl, Dora (I28191)

| 2150 | According to the 1910 census, both of her parents were born in Pennsylvania. | Huffman, Isabelle "Belle" (I28551)
|
| 2151 | According to the 1910 census, both of his parents were born in Virginia. In the 1910 census, he, his wife Belle, and his son Frank L. are all living in Bethel, Clark County, Ohio. According to The History of the Heck Family in America (citation details below), he was first married to a Mary Allen who died 10 Jul 1918, which implies that the marriage ended in divorce. He fought on the Union side in the Civil War, in the 135th Ohio Infantry, 153rd Regiment National Guard. According to The History of Clark County, Ohio (Chicago: W. H. Beers, 1881), which provides a full list of the 153rd Regiment that incliudes "Heck, David P.", the regiment was organized at Camp Dennison, Ohio on 12 May 1864, with Col. Israel Stough as its commander. "At Harper's Ferry, Va., and along the line of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and under Gen. Butler at Bermuda Hundred, during guard and picket duty, was the period of service this regiment expended. […] It was mustered out in the latter part of July, 1864, at Camp Chase, Ohio." | Heck, David Peter (I28550)

| 2153 | According to the 1910 census, his parents were "Scot Gaelic", he arrived (presumably with them) in 1854 at the age of about 2, and he had been naturalized sometime between then and 1910. Under "trade or profession" is written "own income." | Anderson, Robert (I3934)
|
| 2154 | According to the 1928 and 1937 city directories of Hartford, in those years he was a janitor. That the father of Thomas Doherty born 3 June 1913 was another Thomas Doherty who emigrated from Ireland in 1899 is established by the older Thomas Doherty's petition for naturalization dated 16 August 1913. Facts established by this document: Residence: 19 Hamilton St., Hartford, Connecticut Occupation: Foreman Birth date: 25 December 1875 Birth place: Milltown, Ireland Emigration: On the Teutonic, leaving Queenstown, Ireland 5 Apr 1899, arriving New York City 13 Apr 1899 Wife's name: Delia Wife's birthplace: Dalgan, Ireland Children: John, b. 29 Jun 1907; Edward, b. 17 Aug 1908; Thomas, b. 3 Jun 1913 Thomas Doherty stated his birthplace as "Milltown, Ireland," and in the 1930 US Census both his and his wife's place of birth is given as "Irish Free State." There are a large number of Milltowns the Republic of Ireland. At least seven are in Wikipedia, plus many more hamlets, townlands, and sub-townlands of that name. There are two Thomas Dohertys listed on the passenger manifest for the New York arrival of the RMS Teutonic on 13 Apr 1899. One of them states his age as 20, his last residence as "Caherduff", that he has $10 to his name, and that he is joining his sister Ellie in Hartford, Connecticut, who paid for his passage. The other states his age as 22, his last residence as "Carnaduff", and that he is joining his sister Mary in Hartford. Given the circumstances under which English shipping functionaries interviewed Irish passengers, is entirely possible that these listings refer to the same individual, and that the variations are down to simple mis-hearing. It is also possible that this sailing of the Teutonic contained two different Thomas Dohertys, both headed for Hartford. There is a miniscule hamlet called Caherduff in county Mayo and a farming area called Carnduff in county Sligo. But I don't think either of these pertain to the origins of Thomas Doherty who gave his birth date as 25 December 1875 and his birthplace as "Milltown, Ireland." The National Library of Ireland collects and preserves Catholic parish registers, and they're viewable on ancestry.com and elsewhere. There we find the record of a Thomas Doherty baptised on Sunday, 26 December 1875 at Carndonagh in county Donegal, son of Michael Doherty and Anne Naughton or Naughlen. (Note that County Donegal is the part of Ireland with the largest concentration of persons named Doherty, both today and in the nineteenth century.) Carndonagh, Carn Domhnach, is a town on the Inishowen peninsula; if Ireland were a clock it would be at about 12:30. Its current population is about 2,700. Photographs of it show it overshadowed by a very large and startlingly Italianate church, built in the 1940s on a high point over the town. About five miles to the northeast of Carndonagh is the seaside town of Culldaff, Cúil Dabhcha. It is easy to imagine this place name being spoken in a heavy Irish accent and transcribed by non-Irish officials as "Caherduff" or "Carnaduff." County Donegal has at least three Milltowns. Milltown, Baile an Mhuilinn, is a farming hamlet about twenty miles west of Carndonagh as the crow flies, but over 35 miles away by road. Milltown is also the name of a substantial part of central Donegal town, at the other end of the county. The third Milltown in Donegal is on the Inishowen peninsula, a mere eight to ten miles from Carndonagh depending on which road you take. This Milltown is on the Milltown Road, in the townland of Lederg, in the electoral division of Desertegny, in the civil parish of Desertegny, in the barony of Inishowen West, in the county of Donegal. Its coordinates are 55° 11' 53" N, 7° 29' 41" W. This Milltown seems to be the likeliest candidate for the birthplace of Thomas Doherty. | Doherty, Thomas J. (I17270)

| 2155 | According to the Moore County, NC Family Tree DNA project, he can be found in Moore County, North Carolina by 1759 and lived on Cabin Creek until his death in 1799 or 1800. Said to have been a son of Mark Morgan and Sarah Hinton of Orange County, North Carolina. | Morgan, John (I35152)

| 2156 | According to the Encyclopedia of Massachusetts, Biographical-Genealogical (citation details below), he was either a son or a nephew of John Hobbs, son of Jonathan Hobbs, son of Thomas Hobbs. John Hobbs was born at Ipswich, 25 Apr 1680, and died 3 Apr 1751. He married Elizabeth Stinson in 1706. She was born 11 Jan 1680, a daughter of George Stinson of Ipswich, and Jeremiah was a common name in the Stinson family. | Hobbs, Jeremiah (I33560)

| 2159 | According to the diary his son, John McClure "was shut up in Londonderry at the age of 7 years, with his parents, at the time when it was besieged by an army of papists commanded by King James 2nd & suffered all the horrors of famine." This would be a reference to the Siege of Derry, 18 Apr to 28 Jul 1689, in which over 4000 Protestants out of a population of 8000 died. | McClure, Deacon John (I19373)

The ODNB makes no mention of another wife, Eleanor, who is called the mother of Henry Fortescue in the History of Parliament (citation details below) entry on the latter. The ODNB identifies Clarice as the mother of both Henry and John, and we follow that. | Clarice (I35699)

| 2165 | According to the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, his mother was his father's second wife Isabel de Fernielaw, not Joan Hepple as stated in several sources. From Complete Peerage X:26: Robert de Ogle, son and heir apparent by 1st wife. As "donsel" of the diocese of Durham he had licence to choose a confessor, August 1349. In August 1351 he was attorney for his father to take seisin of Thirnham. He married Ellen, daughter and heir of Sir Robert Bertram, of Bothal, chivaler, by his 1st wife, Margaret (living in May 1341), daughter and coheir of Constance, wife of William de Felton (f). He died v.p., being slain in the attack on Berwick, November 1355. (f) Ellen's age is stated variously in the inquisitions of her father, Nov 1363, as 22 or 26. | de Ogle, Robert (I8840)

| 2168 | According to the U.S. Army Register of Enlistments, 1798-1914, on ancestry.com, he served (as a clerk) in the US Cavalry, 27 May 1895 to 26 May 1898 and was discharged at Fort Du Chesne, Utah. According to U.S. National Cemetery Interment Control Forms, 1928-1962, also on ancestry.com, he then re-enlisted on 11 Jun 1898 and was discharged on 14 Oct of the same year with the rank of sergeant in company B of the 1st Kentucky Cavalry. His gravestone at Arlington describes him as a veteran of the Spanish-American War, which took place from April through August of 1898. Where he fought, if in fact he saw combat, is unknown to us. He may have re-enlisted again; the newspaper story transcribed below refers to him having been "[f]or a number of years", in connection with the Army, "stationed at Washington, and later at St. Louis". However those postings may fit into his timeline, the record of his daughter Jane's birth on 3 Oct 1906 says that he worked at that time for the "US Postal service". In 1910 he is seen in the record as a US government clerk at Liguan Military Reservation in the Philippines. He left that position in June 1912 for a job as the clerk of the Army quartermaster's depot in Jeffersonville, Indiana. In late 1912 he left government service for a job at an airplane company in Cincinnati, but by Sep 1918 he was a clerk at the War Department in Washington, DC, a position he still had in 1920. He was still living in Washington, DC in 1930. This is as much as we know of his working life. He died of bladder cancer at the VA hospital in the Bronx. The abstract of his death certificate helpfully informs us that his residence by then was "Vermont Apartments" in New Jersey. His death certificate gives his date of birth as 8 Sep 1873. His gravestone at Arlington says 8 Sep 1872. From the Owensboro Messenger-Inquirer, 5 Jan 1913, page 3: LETTER CLEARS UP DISAPPEARANCE OF IVO HAYDEN Left Jeffersonville to Get Position in Cincinnati—Was Born Near West Louisville Jeffersonville, Ind., Jan. 4. — R. Ivo Hayden, who was transferred to the quartermaster's depot here, last June from the Philippines, and located with his wife and two children, in a cottage at 305 East Chestnut street, and whose sudden and mysterious absence from his home caused much anxiety and uneasiness among his friends has been heard from, a letter being received by Frank B. Shepherd, a messenger at the government depot. Hayden, in his letter to Shepherd, said he had left Jeffersonville for the purpose of quitting the government service and had gone to Cincinnati, from which city he wrote, with a view of finding a position that he thought he would like better than the one he has been filling. It was stated by Hayden that he had notified his wife, who is in Lexington, Ky., where he was, and she would join him later. After reaching Cincinnati, Hayden wrote, three good positions were found to be open and one was accepted with an aeroplane company. The personal effects of Hayden are still in the cottage where he had been living since last June, 305 East Chestnut street, and no mention of them was made in the letter. Neither did Hayden offer any explanation as to why he left Jeffersonville unannounced, without locking the front door to his home. The vacancy caused by the leaving of Hayden brings up the question of how it will be filled. The general impression of those who were talked with last evening is that under the new army reorganization law an enlisted man will be promoted and send to Jeffersonville. If this is the case he will be the first soldier clerk at the depot. Born At West Louisville Ivo Hayden is the son of James S. Hayden, deceased, and was born and raised in the West Louisville neighborhood. He has a brother, Robert Hayden, living near Curdsville, and a sister, Mrs. Ernest Clark, near West Louisville. When a very young man Hayden entered the army, and by his efficient service has been promoted to a number of important positions. For a number of years he was stationed at Washington, and later at St. Louis. | Hayden, Richard Ivo (I3904)

|
| 2173 | According to various family trees on ancestry.com, the Coateses emigrated from Ireland due to religious differences. The notes we've seen say they were "Antibaptists," by which we suspect they mean Anabaptists. From Descendants of Thomas Packer, quoting a letter from family researcher Warren Packer of Evansville, Indiana, dated 27 Feb 1958: "We do know that Philip Jr. was Hannah's son. Philip Packer Jr., was born 1686 in Pa. He married in 1724 in Chester Co., Pa. to Ann Coates, daughter. of Peter Coates. She was born in Ireland, and the family came to America as the result of the 'war' against Protestants in Ireland. The Coates family was Antibaptist." | Coates, Anne (I6687)
|
| 2174 | According to VCH Durham (volume 3, "Coatham Stob"), he "may have been" the son of Robert Conyers who succeeded to Cotham Stob in 1323, himself the son of John Conyers "of Stubhouse" who "made a grant of land in Cronkley (Northumberland) in 1306." This John de Conyers was apparently a son of Scolastica, second daughter of Ralph de Coatham who died in 1298 holding Coatham Stob and land in Northumberland. | Conyers, Robert (I21520)

| 2180 | Adelaide-Blanche of Anjou (d. 1026) was married four times, to Étienne de Brioude, Raymond de Toulouse, Louis V of France, and Guillaume II of Provence. She definitely had a daughter named Ermengarde, who was herself very probably married to a count of Auvergne, but as this entry at The Henry Project explains in detail, insufficient evidence exists to establish whether Étienne or Raymond was this Ermengarde's father, and which count of Auvergne she married. She may be this individual, the Ermengarde commonly recorded as the wife of Robert I. Or she may be the "Umberga" recorded as Robert I's mother, the wife of Guillaume IV. | Ermengarde (I8662)

On 24 Jun 1340 he won the first great English naval victory by destroying the French fleet at Sluys. Fought at Crécy as one of the bannerets in the king's division. In 1347, he supported the siege of Calais by blockading the port; in the same year, he killed deer belonging to Thomas Bateman, Bishop of Norwich, who consequently excommunicated him and made him do penance by walking barefoot through the streets of Norwich carrying a wax taper weighing six pounds. According to Walter Rye (citation details below) he also fought at Boroughbridge in 1322. | de Morley, Robert (I19054)

| 2185 | Admitted a freeman of Salem 2 May 1643. Next at Charlestown, where he is listed as owner of lot 99 as of 1 Mar 1658. About 1664 he moved to Chelmsford. On 27 Dec 1680 he and his wife Hannah sold their Chelmsford homestead to Capt. Thomas Henchman and moved shortly thereafter to Dunstable, where he was selectman in 1683, 1685, and 1689, one of the six male members that organized the church there, and one its first deacons. | Blanchard, Deacon John (I34385)

| 2186 | Admitted an inhabitant of Aquidneck in 1638. One of the twenty-eight founders of Portsmouth, Rhode Island. "1639, Apr. 30. He and twenty-eight others signed the following compact: 'We, whose names are underwritten, do acknowledge ourselves the legal subjects of his majesty, King Charles, and in his name do hereby bind ourselves into a civil body politicke, unto his laws, according to matters of justice." [The Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island, citation details below.] The identity of his children's mother is unknown. He married, second, between 1657 and 1659, Frances, widow of George Parker. William S. Hornor's statement (citation details below) that he died in Monmouth County, New Jersey is probably due to confusion of this Nicholas Brown with his son Nicholas Brown. This Nicholas Brown's will was made and proved at Portsmouth, Rhode Island. | Brown, Nicholas (I38)

| 2189 | Admitted to Boston church 6 Jan 1639; dismissed to Rowley church 24 Nov 1639. A no-longer-extant entry on RootsWeb indicated that he was baptized 23 Dec 1607 at Gilberdike, Yorkshire, in terms that implied that the writer had viewed the pertinent parish register. This is plausible; Gilberdike is literally only five miles west-southwest of North Cave, where Richard Swan married Anna Spofford. | Swan, Richard (I28323)

| 2192 | After her husband died, she became a Presbyterian, and was part of the community that founded the Old Tennant Church in Monmouth County. Going Up to the House of the Lord, at the site of the Old Tennent Presbyterian Church: By 1731, the hardy group of Scottish Covenanters who worshipped on Free Hill in present-day Marlboro had outgrown their small log cabin church. Because the congregation's growth was fed by new settlements in the Freehold-Manalapan area, an acre of land was purchased five miles to the south to build a new house of worship here on White Hill (said to be named for its white oak trees). There is a tradition that the builders planned to locate the new church on a lower part of the property and had gathered there to begin work. Whereupon a woman from the congregation named Janet Rhea seized the small cornerstone in her apron and, toiling to the top of the hill, set it down there, saying to the astonished onlookers: "Wha ever heard o' ganging doon to the Hoose o' the Lord, an no o' ganging oop to the Hoose o' the Lord?" Janet's point was made and that church, as well as the present larger sanctuary which replaced it 20 years later, was built on top of the hill. In Rev. Symmes' history of the church, he described Janet Rhea as a woman of strong mind and scriptural application and a devout worker in the Presbyterian community that built Old Tennent. The wife of Robert Rhea, a carpenter by profession, who came from Scotland in 1688, Janet was also newly arrived from Scotland when they were married in 1689 at Shrewsbury in the Quaker Meeting House. The old Rhea farm, which Robert had purchased, is now the site of the Visitors Center at Monmouth Battleground State Park. Janet Rhea Road, named in Janet's honor, is just west of the intersection of Routes 9 and 33. There is reportedly a family burial ground on the farm's property and that is where Janet and members of her family were buried. She died in 1761 at the age of 93. A wonderful piece of furniture from the Rhea family home is on display in Freehold. A chair crafted by Robert Rhea was donated to the Monmouth County Historical Society and is on display at the main museum. The massive chair with very detailed carving was fashioned after chairs Robert remembered in Scotland. It dates from 1695 and is thought to be one of the oldest documented chairs crafted in America. | Hampton, Janet (I4127)

| 2198 | After his father died when he was nine or ten, he was raised by his mother and her second husband, William Morgan. His birthdate is widely given as 2 Jan 1743/4, i.e. 2 Jan 1744, but a record of his father's probate from 7 Aug 1755 says he was 12 years old at that point, which would indicate he was born in 1743. On a "Catholic Pioneers" roadside historical marker placed by the Commonwealth of Kentucky: "Basil Hayden, Sr., led 25 Maryland Catholic families to settle near here, on Pottinger's Creek, 1785. Father Whelan said first Mass in Ky. here in 1787. First Catholic church west of Alleghenies built here in 1792. First monks, 1805, Trappist Fathers (Cistercians). Present church erected in 1823, under direction of famous Belgian missionary, Charles Nerinckx." The marker is on N. St. Francis Road (highway 527) just south of Holy Cross Road (highway 457), next to Holy Cross Cemetery, about five miles west-northwest of the Maker's Mark distillery in Loretto. It would probably surprise many people in, oh, say, Santa Fe, New Mexico, whose first Catholic church was built in 1626, to hear that the "first Catholic church west of Alleghenies" was built in 1792. The assumption being, of course, that the real history of the United States is that of white English-speakers gradually moving east to west. This is the very definition of how marginalization works. Will of Basil Hayden: In the name of God, amen. I, Basil Hayden, of the County of Washington and State of Kentucky, being sick and expecting short to die, but of sound memory and understanding, do constitute and ordain this to be my last will and testament. My soul I resign to my Creator who gave it me, and my body I desire to be buried in the place assigned for that purpose, at the chapel adjoining my plantation, and to my worldly goods, after all my just debts are paid, I will and bequest in manner and form following, to wit: I will and bequeath unto my eldest son, Stanislaus Hayden, two Negroes, namely Clare and George, which he has now in his possession to belong to him and his heirs forever, also twenty pounds in trade to satisfy him for his demand he claims of me for labor and to make up his losses in moving. I give and bequeath unto my wife, Henrietta Hayden, my land and premises, for and during her natural life, reserving therein a home and good maintenance for my two daughters, Ann and Teresa, and my son, Edward, for and during their single lives. It is also my will and desire that my two daughters and last-mentioned son have a home and maintenance in said land during the single lives after their mother's death, and then the land to be sold with reserve and the profits equally divided amongst my heirs. I also give my wife, Henrietta, for and during her natural life, the following Negroes, namely Jack, James and his wife Hannah, a woman, Nell, Easter and her son Matthew and Poll, one bed and furniture and the [illegible], also a bay mare named Madam, the mare to dispose of as she may think proper, but the Negroes and land and the profits thereof to be equally divided amongst my heirs at her death, except the reserve before made. I give and bequeath unto my son, Robert Hayden, a Negro woman named Mary and a boy named Samuel, which Negroes he has now in his possession, to be his and his heirs forever. I give unto my son Basil Hayden the Negroes he now has in his possession, namely, Sarah and Luke, to him and his heirs forever. I give unto my daughter, Ann Hayden, two Negroes named Bill and Isaac, to belong to her and the heirs of her body lawfully begotten, if any, if not, at her death to be equally divided amongst my heirs.

I give unto my son, Lewis Hayden, two negroes named Joseph and Susan and also the yellow sorrel mare and young colt. I give unto my son, Edward, two Negroes named Clement and Clare, daughter of Nell. It is also my will and desire in case any of the Negroes, willed to Ann, Teresa, Lewis or Edward, should die before the death of my wife that their loss or losses shall be made good together out of the Negroes willed to my wife funding her life before distribution of those Negroes shall be made amongst my heirs. I leave one Negro boy, Jeremiah, to be sold it if be necessary to pay my debts, but if it can be done without, not to sell him. I given unto the Rev.

It is my will that the Negroes willed to Lewis be hired and the profits reserved for him until he comes of age and by his working on the plantation it is my will for him to stay with his mother after this year until he is twenty-one years old, but if he will not work I wish him to have some more schooling and bound to some decent and profitable trade. The profits of the other Negroes willed to Ann, Teresa and Edward, I wish their mother to make use of in clothing and maintaining them decently during her life. I leave my son Basil Hayden, Executor, to this my last will and testament and all the residue of my estate not legaced in this will to be dealt with according to the directions of the law.

According to John P. Ravilious on SGM on 15 Sep 2004, he "came to England as a vassal of Peter of Savoy (identified as a Savoyard knight) following Eleanor of Provence's coming to England to marry Henry III." "In 1244 he and his brother, Henri, co-seigneurs of Mont, confirmed the gift of their father, Ebal, in favor of the Chartreuse of Oujon. In 1250 he had custody of Ewell, Surrey, by bail of the king. In 1252 Clarice de Crowcombe, heir of Godfrey de Crowcombe, released the manor of Milton, Cambridgeshire to Eble and Joan his wife, Joan, in tail, with remainder to Eble's own heirs. In 1254 the king granted him the manor of Pitney, Somerset, to hold until the legal age of the heirs of Sabina del Ortiay [Lorty]. In 1254 he and his brothers, Henri, seigneur of Mont, and Rodolphe, canon of Lausaunne, granted a vineyard to Bonvent convent. In 1258 he was paid 25 marks by the king, which he received in respect of his fee for the lands of Walton and Ewell. In 1257 the king granted him lands in Ketton, Rutland, to be held of the king by the service of one quarter of a knight's fee. In 1259 at London he witnessed the will of Eble de Genève, son of the deceased Count Humbert de Genève, in favor of Peter of Savoy. In 1259 Annora de Capella granted Eble and Joan his wife one messuage and one carucate of land in Westbury, Buckinghamshire. In 1264–5 his estate at Milton, Cambridgeshire was seized by Philip de Colville and in 1266 was burnt and plundered by the Montfortian rebels. In 1267 he was granted the wardship of the lands and serjeantry of the king's chapel and the office of spigornel of the king's seal, late of Bartholomew de la Chapelle, deceased."

Obituary, from the Nauvoo Neighbor, 15 Nov 1843: Died on the 3rd inst. in this city, Mrs. Leah Chiles [Childs], of cancer and rheumatism, in the 57th year of her age. Sister Childs was a firm believer in the doctrines of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as they have been revealed in the last days to man through the medium of revelation. She shared all the persecutions heaped upon the saints -- was driven with them from the state of Missouri, and suffered much from exposure and fatigue. Never was the name of a more generous, benevolent and sympathetic woman enrolled upon the records of the Church. She was truly a "mother in Israel." She possessed great faith, which seemed, for a long time, to baffle the destroyer, death; but it was the will of her Heavenly Father to take her to himself, that her soul might be emancipated. She [was] released from the vicissitudes of this troublesome world. She had been afflicted for more that a year, and suffered the most excruciating pain, but she was perfectly resigned to the will of heaven and when the period of her desolution arrived she fell asleep, as calm as the sleep of infancy, with the unwavering hope of participating in the first resurrection, when she should awake to everlasting youth, immortality and eternal life. | Lewis, Leah (I6607)
|
| 2236 | Allegedly she and her mother Leah Lewis were founding members of the Relief Society when it was organized on 17 Mar 1842, but neither of them is mentioned in Wikipedia's coverage of that first meeting. From Sarah Thompson Phelps, a memoir by her granddaughter Barbara Ann Phelps Allen: Grandma was born March 20, 1820. Her parents were James and Leah Lewis Thompson. When she was four years old, her father died leaving her mother with seven small children, making it necessary for her to start out early in life making her own way. In spite of poverty, she succeeded in acquiring sufficient education to be able to teach school. When she was eleven years old, the gospel came into their home. She, together with her mother and other members of the family except one brother, joined and were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. After they joined, their friends turned against them, and from then on their trials began. They were driven from place to place and finally forced to flee to the Rocky Mountains. She was brave and courageous as a young woman. She taught school when she was a young woman. It was customary for teachers to board among the homes of their pupils, which she did, and in doing so she learned many of the plots and schemes of the mobs to assassinate the Saints. She kept the saints posted, and when the final plot came for the general roundup of the saints, she made a dash on horseback to give the alarm to her people. She was followed for five miles one time, but her horse being fastest, she made her escape. Another time when she was teaching, she went to a home to collect her pay, and the people refused to pay. They said their intentions were to drive all the Mormons out and take the crops that they had recently harvested. She told them what she thought of them. While she was speaking, a voice came to her telling her to leave the next morning as soon as she arose. She did, and as she was leaving, she saw the mob coming and they tried to kill her. At the time of Haun's Mill Massacre, she lived but a few miles from the mill on the creek; some of those who were fortunate enough to get away came to her home. While the mob was going through the country, they crossed the creek where Grandma and all the women were washing clothes. She told many times how they looked, saying they had their faces painted and were disguised in every imaginable way. Some of the women were so frightened, they fainted, but grandma shouted, "Hooray for the captain!" Two of the men rode up to her and asked if she wasn't afraid of them. She said she hadn't been raised in the woods to be afraid of owls. They asked her if she didn't recognize them, and she said she did not. They told her she should, they were her old neighbors. She then asked them what they intended to do, and one replied, "Kill everyone on the creek." Grandma asked what they had done that they should be killed. Their reply was they did not know, they were only obeying orders. On two different occasions, she was chased by a mob who tried to shoot her, but their guns refused to go off. One time when they had been driven from their home, she said they had traveled all day in the rain driving their cattle. She had on a sunbonnet that was quilted so that cardboard slats could be inserted. The rain had dissolved the slats, and the front of her bonnet flopped in her face. She was soaked to the skin, weary and tired after plodding the mud all day. As they were passing a farm house, a lady saw her and invited her into her home to dry her clothes and get warm. She was taken into the parlor by the fireplace. There were two young ladies and their boy friends sitting there, and when they saw grandma they burst out laughing. She said she was nearly in tears; she looked them in the eye and said, "You must have been born in the woods." | Thompson, Sarah (I5074)

| 2241 | Along with TNH ancestors William Chesebrough, Walter Palmer, and George Denison, he was one of the founders of Stonington, Connecticut. He was also a founder of Hartford; his name is on the Founders Monument there. From Wikipedia: Thomas Stanton (1616?-1677) was a trader and an accomplished Indian interpreter and negotiator in the colony of Connecticut. One of the original settlers of Hartford, he was also one of four founders of Stonington, Connecticut, along with William Chesebrough, Thomas Miner, and Walter Palmer. He first appears in the historical record as an interpreter for John Winthrop, Jr. in 1636. He fought in the Pequot War, nearly losing his life in the Fairfield Swamp Fight in 1637. In 1638 he was a delegate at the Treaty of Hartford, which ended that war. In 1643, the United Colonies of New England appointed Stanton as Indian Interpreter. Following the war, Stanton returned to Hartford, where he married and became a successful trader. In 1649, Stanton settled a tract of land alongside the Pawcatuck River in what is present-day Stonington. In 1649 or 1650 he was given permission to establish a trading post on the river and was granted a 3 year monopoly over Indian trade in the area. The trading house was built in 1651. During this time, Stanton's family remained in Hartford or New London, joining him in Stonington in about 1657 after the trading venture had become established and a suitable house constructed. From Eugene C. Zubrinsky, "The Immigration and Early Whereabouts of in America of Thomas Stanton of Connecticut" (citation details below): The available evidence provides neither complete details nor absolute certainty as to [Thomas] Stanton's immigration to and initial whereabouts in America. We may nevertheless be completely confident in discarding more than 150 years of virtually unsupported (yet, incredibly, uncontested) assertions about these matters. Careful analysis of existing records leads inexorably to the conclusion that Thomas Stanton immigrated directly to Massachusetts by 1635 (ship unknown); landed probably at Boston (the point of all but a handful of Bay Colony arrivals) but went soon (if not immediately) to Cambridge; and after spending time trading with the Indians in Connecticut, migrated to Hartford by June 1636. On 6 February 1649[/50], the General Court granted Stanton "libberty to erect a trading howse" at Pawcatuck, an outlying, practically unpopulated section of Pequot (New London) that would become part of the eventual tow of Stonington. By July 1651, he and, presumably, his family had removed from Hartford to the settlement at Pequot. The grant there of Stanton's six-acre house lot is recorded without date but would have been made no later than 19 October 1650, when he received 20 acres of upland "upen scull plain." His next Pequot grant, two acres of salt marsh "at sandie Coave," was made on 28 March 1651. Other grants followed, including one, dated 18 June (not in March) 1652, of 300 acres near his Pawcatuck trading post. Stanton was of Pawcatuck on 25 or 28 January 1657[ 8?], when he sold his Pequot dwelling house, home lot, and orchard to George Tong[ue]. A founder and leading citizen of Stonington, he died there on 2 December 1677. | Stanton, Thomas (I6147)

Ancestral Roots has her as a daughter of Louis VII by his third wife Adèle of Blois (whom they call "Alix of Champagne"); Richardson's Royal Ancestry, with evidently better documentation, has her as a daughter of Louis by his second wife, Constance of Castile. But Szabolcs de Vajay's comprehensive 1989 survey of the Iberian Burgundians, "From Alfonso VII to Alfonso X: The First Two Centuries of the Burgundian Dynasty in Castile and Leon -- A Prosopographical Catalogue in Social Genealogy, 1100-1300" (in Studies in Genealogy and Family History in Tribute to Charles Evans on the Occasion of His Eightieth Birthday ed. Lindsay L. Brook. Salt Lake City: Association for the Promotion of Scholarship in Genealogy, 1989) says that Constance of Castile's daughter Adelaide by Louis VII died in infancy. We're going with Richardson on the (weak) basis of his research being more recent. Update: Peter Stewart, on SGM in October 2016, argued here, here, and here that "Alberic of Troisfontaines specified that Alix, the wife of Guillaume of Ponthieu, was the daughter of Louis VII by his Spanish second wife ('rex iste Ludovicus de prima uxore sua Alienor, quam dimisit, duas habuit filias ... De secunda quoque uxore, que fuit Hyspana, duas similiter habuit filias, primo reginam Margaretam Anglie et comitissam Aaliz, quam duxit Guilelmus comes de Pontivo')," and that there is no good reason to doubt this, particularly since if Alix had been a daughter of Louis VII's third wife, "Alix would have been (on her supposed mother's side) a third cousin of Richard, by common descent from William the Conqueror." Stewart also argues that Alix cannot have married William II Talvas before August 1195 (rather than 1185 as stated in AR8) "because she was detained in England by Henry II for some years after the rupture in 1191 of her long betrothal to his son Richard.

| 2247 | Also Adelasia, Alasia, etc. Regent of Saluzzo during her grandson's minority. From Wikipedia: Like her brother Boniface, Azalaïs was a patron of troubadours. She is mentioned in Peire Vidal's song, Estat ai gran sazo: Dieus sal l'onrat marques E sa bella seror... (God save the honoured marquis And his beautiful sister) and is the dedicatee of his Bon' aventura don Dieus als Pizas. Around 1192, she had built the church of San Lorenzo, which she granted to the canons of San Lorenzo in Oulx; her eldest son, Boniface, named after her brother, is mentioned for the first time in the donation. However, Boniface died in 1212, and with the death of her husband in February 1215, Azalaïs became regent of Saluzzo for her grandson, Manfred III. In 1216, she made a treaty with Thomas I of Savoy for a marriage between his son Amadeus and her granddaughter Agnes. However, the marriage never took place, possibly on grounds of consanguinity, since Azalaïs was a first cousin of Thomas's father. Amadeus married Anne of Burgundy, and Agnes became Abbess of the Cistercian convent of Santa Maria della Stella in Rifreddo. Azalaïs also made political and ecclesiastical agreements with Alba and with the Bishop of Asti. When young Manfred reached his majority in 1218, Azalaïs returned to church patronage. In 1224, she endowed the convent of Rifreddo with the income of the church of San Ilario. In 1227, she made further grants to the canons of Oulx. | of Montferrat, Azalaïs (I9495)

| 2283 | Also called Adelaide. Conjectured as a daughter of Adelaide-Blanche of Anjou by either Guillaume de Provence or Raymond de Toulouse. The Henry Project says: "Some primarily onomastic conjectures have been made based partly on the fact that [Toda and Bernardo] had a daughter with the rare name Constance [Stasser (1993), 497-88 n. 52]. Vajay would make Tota/Adélaïde a daughter of Adélaïde/Blanche by her fourth husband Guillaume de Provence [Vajay (1980), 756], while Stasser would make her a daughter of Adélaïde/Blanche by Raymond of Toulouse [Stasser (1993), 497-8 n. 52; Stasser (1997), 44-6]. On the other hand, Settipani conjectures Tota/Adélaïde as a daughter of Guillaume by his first wife Arsinde [Settipani (2004), 59-66]. Connections with other families have also been proposed [see Stasser (1993), 497-88 n. 52; Stasser (1997), 45-6].

Stewart Baldwin: "[A] good king, according to Gildas [...] His reign as king of Dyfed is confirmed by the contemporary testimony of Gildas, who, although he does not provide his name, calls his son Uortiporius the bad son of a good king. His name comes from the later sources, of which HG is the earliest. His chronology is very uncertain, due to the uncertain timeframe of Gildas, but the late fifth century would be a reasonable estimate. Agricola was of Irish descent, a member of the tribe known as the Déisi, a segment of which moved from Ireland to Wales at an uncertain date, and eventually became rulers of Dyfed. His claimed father Tryffin (Triphun), if accurately remembered, is nothing more than a name, and there are significant disagreements in the genealogy prior to Tryffin. If it can be accepted that they hide a grain of truth, it is at least arguable that Agricola's grandfather was a man who was nicknamed 'Briscus' (Irish 'Brosc', Welsh 'Vreisc')." | Agricola King of Dyfed (I3424)

|
| 2338 | Also called Alan of Galloway. Hereditary Constable of Scotland. Present at Magna Carta as an advisor to King John. From the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography: "Cross-border landholding and kinship with King John of England made Alan a man of consequence in both realms. His relationship with the king of Scots, based on loose overlordship rather than feudal subordination, allowed freedom of manoeuvre where his actions did not conflict with Scottish interests. Galloway's military resources and substantial fleet gave added influence; Alan's aid was courted unsuccessfully by John for his 1210 campaign against the Ulster Lacys, but he agreed to send one thousand men for the abortive Welsh campaign of 1212. [...] "From 1225 Alan used the freedom afforded by the loose overlordship of the Scottish crown to interfere in the feud between King Ragnvald of Man and his half-brother, Olaf. His private interest, arising from efforts to secure Antrim with Ragnvald's support against the threat of a Lacy restoration, coincided at first with Anglo-Scottish policy towards the region and received the tacit support of his Scottish overlord. The prospect of a pro-Scottish client in Man led Alexander II to acquiesce to the marriage in 1226 of Alan's bastard son, Thomas, to Ragnvald's daughter, but the marriage provoked revolt against Ragnvald. Despite the support of Galwegian galleys and warriors, Ragnvald was overthrown and slain in 1229 by Olaf. Alan's ensuing attempts to conquer Man for Thomas destabilized the Hebrides and western highlands, thereby threatening Scottish territorial interests, and in 1230–31 prompted active Norwegian support for Olaf. Joint action by Alan and Alexander averted catastrophe, but Scottish and Galwegian interests had diverged and the 1231 campaign marked the end of further Galwegian involvement in the Manx succession; Alan's dynastic ambitions had caused an undesirable war with a major foreign power." From Wikipedia: "Although under the traditional Celtic custom of Galloway, Alan's illegitimate son could have succeeded to the Lordship of Galloway, under the feudal custom of the Scottish realm, Alan's nearest heirs were his surviving daughters. Using Alan's death as an opportunity to further integrate Galloway within his realm, Alexander forced the partition of the lordship amongst Alan's daughters. Alan was the last legitimate ruler of Galloway, descending from the native dynasty of Fergus, Lord of Galloway." | fitz Roland, Alan (I10693)

Her marriage had been arranged by the late King Henry III's widowed queen consort Eleanor de Provence." [Leo van de Pas] CP has her buried at Todingham Priory, but Chris Phillips's compilation of corrections to CP includes Douglas Richardson's note in Jan 2002 that "the bodies of both Richard and Alesia were at Haughmond Abbey, Shropshire, by 1341, when provision was made for 12 candles to burn in the church of Haughmond around their tombs." | di Saluzzo, Alice (I397)

| 2349 | Also called Aldhun of Durham. "Since the late 9th century the see of Lindisfarne was based at Chester-le-Street because of constant attacks from invading Danes. However, in 994 King Æthelred II of England had paid a Danegeld (protection money) to King Sweyn I of Denmark and King Olaf I of Norway in return for peace. The pay-off worked and there followed a period of freedom from Viking raids. This encouraged Aldhun to return the remains of Cuthbert of Lindisfarne to their original resting place at Lindisfarne, and to reinstate the diocese there. En route to their destination however Aldhun claimed to have received a vision from Cuthbert saying that the saint's remains should be laid to rest at Durham. The monks detoured then to Durham, and the title Bishop of Lindisfarne was transferred to Bishop of Durham. The removal of the see from Chester-le-Street to Durham took place in 995."

| 2350 | Also called Alditha. | de Vernon, Auda (I8669)
|
| 2351 | Also called Aldred; Maldred MacCrinan. According to The Scots Peerage (citation details below), he was probably killed in the same battle as his father Crinan, attempting to avenge the murder of his brother Duncan by Macbeth. The Henry Project calls Maldred a "probable" child of the Crinan who married Bethoc, daughter of Malcolm II, King of Scotland (this Crinan and Bethoc being the parents of the Scots king Duncan I), but THP also notes that there is no direct evidence that Bethoc was Maldred's mother. From The Henry Project: Maldred is given as a son of a Crinán in three of the works of Simeon of Durham, with Crínán given the title of "thane" (tein) in one of these works. Maldred married Ealdgyth, daughter of Uhtred, earl of Northumbria, by whom he Dolphin, Waltheof, and Cospatric (ancestor of the House of Dunbar) ["Postea vero illo, scilicet Ucthredo, proficiente magis et magis in re militari, rex Ethelredus filiam suam Elfgivam ei copulavit uxorem. Ex qua habuit filiam Aldgitham, quam pater in conjugium dedit Maldredo filio Crinan tein, ex qua Maldredus Cospatricum, patrem Dolphini et Walteofi, et Cospatrici." Sim. Durh., De Obsessione Dunelmi, c. 2 (1: 216); "... Cospatricus, filius Maldredi filii Crinani ... Erat enim ex matre Algitha, filia Uchtredi comitis, quam habuit ex Algiva filia Agelredi Regis. Hanc Algitham pater dedit in conjugium Maldredo filio Crinani." Sim. Durh., Historia Regum, c. 159 (2: 199); "Deinde Uctredus filius Walthefi administravit comitatum omnium Northanhymbrorum provinciarum. Huic rex Eathelredus suam filiam Ælfgeovam dederat uxorem. Ex qua filiam habens Aldgitham, dedit in conjugium prædiviti cuidam, Maldredo filio Crinani: de qua habuit Cospatricum comitem, patrem Dolphini, Walthefi, et Cospatrici." Sim. Durh., De Primo Saxonum Adventu (2: 383)]. Anderson states that Maldred appears to have ruled in Cumbria [ESSH 1: 577], but there does not seem to be a clear source for that statement [however, see ESSH 2: 37 for the possible Cumbrian origin of Maldred's son Cospatric I]. No primary source explicitly identifies the Crínán who was Maldred's father with the Crínán who was Duncan's father. [Key to abbreviations in the above:] Sim.

[...] Councillor in 1255 to the underage King of Scotland, Alexander III, and one of the regents of Scotland. Upon his marriage he seized the Isles of Bute and Arran and as a result fought and defeated the Norwegians at the battle of Largs, in Cunningham, 2 Oct 1263, ceding the Isles to Scotland. In 1264 he invaded the Isle of Man which was then annexed to the Crown."

Complete Peerage X:441, note (j), says "She was probably da. of Richard FitzGilbert (de Clare), by Alice, sister of Ranulph, Earl of Chester; on chronological grounds this is more likely than the suggestion made by Round in Feudal England, ped. at p. 472, that her father was Richard's father Gilbert, who, moreover, had a da.

|
| 2395 | Also called Alix. Marchioness (Duchess) of Turin. Kick-ass eleventh-century woman who took no crap from anybody, evidently. From Wikipedia: Since the margravial title primarily had a military purpose at the time, it was thus was not considered suitable for a woman. Emperor Conrad II therefore arranged a marriage between Adelaide and his stepson, Herman IV, in January 1037. Herman was then invested as margrave of Turin. Herman died of the plague while fighting for Conrad II at Naples in July 1038. Adelaide remarried in order to secure her vast march. Probably in 1041, and certainly before 19 January 1042, Adelaide married Henry, Marquess of Montferrat. Henry died c. 1045 and left Adelaide a widow for the second time. Immediately, a third marriage was undertaken, this time to Otto of Savoy (1046). With Otto she had three sons, Peter I, Amadeus II, and Otto. The couple also had two daughters, Bertha, who married Henry IV of Germany, and Adelaide, who married Rudolf of Rheinfelden (who later opposed Henry as King of Germany). [...] In 1070 Adelaide captured and burned the city of Asti, which had rebelled against her. In 1069 Henry IV tried to repudiate Adelaide's daughter, Bertha, which caused Adelaide's relationship with the imperial family to cool. However, through the intervention of Bertha, Henry received Adelaide's support when he came to Italy to submit to Pope Gregory VII and Matilda of Tuscany at Canossa. In return for allowing him to travel through her lands, Henry gave Bugey to Adelaide. Adelaide and her son Amadeus then accompanied Henry IV and Bertha to Canossa, where Adelaide acted as an oath-helper, alongside Matilda and Albert Azzo II, Margrave of Milan, among others. Bishop Benzo of Alba sent several letters to Adelaide between 1080 and 1082, encouraging her to support Henry IV in the Italian wars which formed part of the Investiture Controversy. Adelaide's dealings with Henry IV became closer after this. She offered to mediate between him and Matilda and Tuscany, and may even have joined him on campaign. Adelaide made many donations to monasteries in the march of Turin. In 1064 she founded the monastery of Santa Maria at Pinerolo. Adelaide received letters from many of the leading churchmen of the day, including Pope Alexander II, Peter Damian, and Pope Gregory VII. These letters indicate that Adelaide sometimes supported Gregorian reform, but that at other times she did not. Peter Damian (writing in 1064) and Gregory VII (writing in 1073), relied upon Adelaide to enforce clerical celibacy and protect the monasteries of Fruttuaria and San Michele della Chiusa. By contrast, Alexander II (writing c. 1066/7) reproached Adelaide for her dealings with Guido da Velate the simoniac Archbishop of Milan. [...] Adelaide is a featured figure on Judy Chicago's installation piece The Dinner Party, being represented as one of the 999 names on the Heritage Floor. | of Susa, Adelaide (I702)
|
| 2396 | Also called Alix. Her origins are contested. At the Henry Project, Stewart Baldwin considers her a "probable" daughter of William/Guillaume III "Tête-d'Étoupe" ("Towhead"), Duke of Aquitaine, who was also William I of Poitou, "possibly" by Adèle/Gerloc, daughter of Rollo of Normandy. Regarding William III as her father, Baldwin writes "No definitive solution is possible on the known evidence, but this parentage is more likely than the alternatives." He presents a long summary of the competing arguments for and against this model. We follow the Henry project, but in this case we note some strong arguments against this ancestry for the wife of Hugh Capet. From Peter Stewart, 22 Jun 2010, on soc.genealogy.medieval: The evidence that Hugo Capet's wife was a daughter of Guilhem III, duke of Aquitaine (Guilhem I as count of Poitou) is late and unsatisfactory but nonetheless straightforward enough. The evidence that she was related to the ducal family of Normandy is more satisfactory and also straightforward. However, that this relationship came about through Adela/Gerloc is somewhat less satisfactory, and muddied to a degree by contradictions in the sources for this mysterious personage. Dudo says that Guilhem III proposed his own marriage to a sister of William Longsword of Normandy in the course of a gathering to hunt mating deer near Rouen, attended amongst others by Hugo Capet's father Hugo Magnus described as duke and leading man of the kingdom—the title and position were accorded to him ca 936. William reportedly called his sister a 'girl' at the time, suggesting that she was perhaps ca. 14 and born well after the conversion of her father Rollo to Christianity. Yet William of Jumièges later gave her the pagan name Gerloc, which appears rather anomalous considering that even William (who must have been ca. 20 years older than her) never occurs with any Norse name. I would not accept the unsupported word of Dudo for anything at all, including his own existence. He was an outstanding nincompoop, and relied for this period on the memories of people who clearly did not have the story of Rollo's life and family straight in the first place. Dudo's contemporary Ademar of Chabannes, who certainly knew more about the ducal family in Aquitaine though not that in Normandy, says that Rollo's daughter married Ebles Manzer and was mother of Guilhem III/I ("filius Rannulfi, Eblus manzer, Arvernis et Pictavis simul comes promotus est...Acceptaque in conjugium Adala, filia Rosi [sic] Rotomagensis comitis., genuit ex ea Willelmum Caput Stupe.") The monks of Saint-Maixent, where Guilhem's younger brother Ebles was abbot from 936 (NB around the time that Dudo placed the marriage to Guilhem III/I), followed Ademar and made him also a son of Ebles Manzer and the daughter of Rollo ("Eblus filius Ramnulfi...acceptaque in conjugio Adela, filia Rolli Rothomagensis, genuit ex ea Willelmum Caput Stupæ et episcopum Ebulum".) We don't know much about the marriages of Ebles Manzer—in the 890s he appears to have had a wife named Aremburgis and by February 911 he was married to a lady named Emillana, probably the same as the Countess Alaina who later became a nun. Guilhem III/I occurs with a wife named Adeleidis in the early 950s. There is no evidence apart from Dudo, Ademar and William of Jumièges that any of these women (or perhaps another who does not occur in charters) was a daughter of Rollo and also had the name Gerloc. There are such wide gaps in our knowledge of these genealogies that trying to fill in a "Norman ancestry alleged for Adelaide" from the fact that her grandson was somehow related to Edward the Confessor is a stretch too far. From Peter Stewart, 22 Dec 2020, on soc.genealogy.medieval: The question of the family origin of Hugo Capet's wife has been raised here before, and I have given reasons for doubting her connection to the dukes of Aquitaine. A further point has just occurred to me that as far as I know has not been brought into the discussion here or in print before: In 1025 after Robert II (the only son of Hugo and Adelais) had declined to become king of Italy, Guilhem V of Aquitaine decided to support the candidacy of his own eldest son. To further this he asked for support from the king to prevent opposition from Germany, offering inducements to Robert (1,000 pounds and 100 mantles) and to the queen (500 pounds). But he put forward the request indirectly, through the queen's first cousin Fulco Nerra of Anjou. A letter to the king, written by St Fulbert of Chartres for Fulco on behalf of Guilhem, sets out the terms of the proposal asking the king to reply to Fulco so that he could relay the answer to Guilhem. This round-about procedure through a proxy related to the king's wife would seem somewhat odd if Guilhem had been a nephew of Adelais, and his alternative candidate for the Lombard crown therefore the king's first cousin once removed. | Adélaïde Queen Consort of France (I7046)

|
| 2411 | Also called Amice of Chester. Her legitimacy was the subject of a lengthy seventeenth-century controversy which can be read, in all its magnificently florid language, here. It seems to us entirely plausible that Amicia was Hugh's legitimate daughter by an unknown earlier wife. The Earl's behavior toward Amicia, and the attitude shown by all their contemporaries -- to say nothing of the illustrious guests recorded as having attended Amicia's wedding to Ralph Mainwairing -- are all consistent with Amicia being legitimate. It's far from impossible that history should have lost track of the identity of a twelfth-century magnate's short-lived first wife. We don't even have firm knowledge of the birth dates of some post-Conquest English kings. A summary of the issues, from Burke's Dormant and Extinct Peerages: The earl had another dau., whose legitimacy is questionable, namely Amicia,* m. to Ralph de Mesnilwarin, justice of Chester, "a person," says Dugdale, "of very ancient family," from which union the Mainwarings, of Over Peover, in the co. Chester, derive. Dugdale considers Amicia to be a dau. of the earl by a former wife. But Sir Peter Leicester, in his Antiquities of Chester, totally denies her legitimacy. "I cannot but mislike," says he, "the boldness and ignorance of that herald who gave to Mainwaring (late of Peover), the elder, the quartering of the Earl of Chester's arms; for if he ought of right to quarter that coat, then must he be descended from a co-heir to the Earl of Chester; but he was not; for the co-heirs of Earl Hugh married four of the greatest peers in the kingdom." (*) Upon the question of this lady's legitimacy there was a long paper war between Sir Peter Leicester and Sir Thomas Mainwaring -- and eventually the matter was referred to the judges, of whose decision Wood says, "at an assize held at Chester, 1675, the controversy was decided by the justices itinerant, who, as I have heard, adjudged the right of the matter to Mainwaring." The passage from Dugdale that evidently occasioned Sir Peter Leycester's astonishment and disbelief, from his Baronage of England, 1675, reprinted by Georg Olms Verlag, Hildesheim & New York, 1977; Earls of Chester, pp. 40-41: [I]t is certain that [Sir Hugh] had another Daughter called Amicia, married to Raphe de Mesnilwarin (a person of a very ancient Family, and Justice of Chester, in those days) whose Legitimacy is doubted by some; the cheif reason they give for it, being, that they find no Memorial, that Earl Hugh her Father had a former Wife. That she was his Daughter, sufficiently appeareth, not only from his Grant of two Knight Fees with her in Frank-marriage, unto Raphe de Mesnilwarin before mentioned, where he so termeth her. But by another Deed of Roger de Mesnilwarin her Son, wherein he calls Ranulph, Earl of Chester, (Son to this Earl) his Uncle. As to her Legitimacy, therefore I do not well understand how there can be any question, it being known Maxim in Law, that nothing can be given in Frank-marriage to a Bastard. The Point being then thus briefly cleared, I shall not need to raise further Arguments from Probabilities to back it, then to desire it may be observed, that Bertra (whom I conclude to have been his second Wife) was married to him, when he was in years, and she, herself, very young, as is evident from what I have before instanced. So that he having been Earl no less then twenty eight years, it must necessarily follow, that this Bertra was not born, till four years after he came to the Earldom. Nor is it any marvel he should then take such a young Wife, having at that time no Issue-male to succeed him in this he great Inheritance." From Palatine Anthology: A Collection of Ancient Poems and Ballads Relating to Lancashire and Chester ed. James Orchard Halliwell (London: 1850): The following old ballad relates to a famous dispute between two Cheshire knights, Sir Peter Leycester and Sir Thomas Mainwaring, about the legitimacy of Amicia, daughter of Hugh Lupus. The worthy knights were related by marriage, and the controversy agitated the county for many years, and was hardly settled by the death of one of the principal controversialists. Communicated to me by Mr. W. H. BLACK. A new Ballad, made of a high and mighty Controversy between two Cheshire Knights, 1673. (From the ASHMOLEAN MSS. No. 860, iii, art. 1, and No. 836, art. 183.) Two famous wights, both Cheshire Knights, Thomas yclep'd and Petre, A quarrel had, which was too bad As bad as is my metre. Neere kinsmen were they, yet had a great fray, Concerning things done quondam; I think as long since as Will Rufus was Prince, E'en about their Great-great-grandame. Sir Peter (good man) this quarell began: Whilst he tumbles ore ancient deedes, Old women can't have quiet rest in their graves, So loud he proclaims what he reades. When in reading he found (as he thought) good ground To judge his Grannam a bastard; Though he blemisht her name, yet it to proclaim He resolv'd hee'd be no dastard. But boldly durst say, that AMICIA Daughter of Hugh Earle of Chester For certaine was bore to him . . . . As sure as his name was Leycester. To this good intent he us'd much argument The which all such as are willing Fully to know, let them quickly bestow Upon his Booke sixteene shilling. His Grannam's his friend; yet truth hee'l defend And little dirt he throws on her, For as now, so then, among your great men, A bastard is small dishonour. Another grandchild, hearing this was stark wild, The affront he could not digest; But takes pen in hand, the same to withstand, As scorning to fowl his own nest. His Grannam hee'l right, against the erring Knight, That slander'd her without warrant: Who does not his best, to free ladies opprest, Is not a true Knight Errant. Hist'ry and lawes he cites for his cause, With Judges and Heraldes; what more? With these hee'l defy the scandalous lye That made him . . . . . They us'd not their swords, but their pens and fowl words, Which noyse with other folks laughter, Could not chuse to awake (to clere this mistake) The jolly old Earl and his daughter. Then up start[s] Earl Hughe, and sayes "Is it true-- That I, brave Chester's Earle, Am summon'd to appear before Justices here, As charg'd with a by-blow girle?" Not another word, but clapt hand on his sword; While she (gentle AMICIA) For feare of some slaughter that might come after, Besought him in patience to stay. But she told her Grandson, "'Twas uncivilly done Such a hideous pudder to keep: Whilst he dreams that folks soules do snort in dark holes To awake us out of our sleep. "Should it have been true, that's suspected by you, Its father was able to nourish The barne he had got, and sure I should not Have been any charge to the parish. "But you, dear Sir Thomas, (much honor to your domus) That my cause you have so well defended; Henceforth leave AMICIA, both keepe Amicitia; And so let the quarell be ended." All this said, the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography also notes that "[t]he feud, however, was not merely a dispute over genealogical and legal niceties, but reflected the division on the Cheshire bench between those like Leycester who sought a rigorous enforcement of the Act of Uniformity and the Conventicle Acts and those such as Mainwaring who opposed this policy." | de Meschines, Amicia (I5878)

The approximately 800 women who made this journey became known as the "filles du roi", the "daughters of the King."

| 2450 | Also called Aoife ni Darmait; Aoife MacMurrough; Red Eva. From Wikipedia: "On the 29 August 1170, following the Norman invasion of Ireland that her father had requested, she married Richard de Clare, 2nd Earl of Pembroke, better known as Strongbow, the leader of the Norman invasion force, in Reginald's Tower in Waterford. She had been promised to Strongbow by her father who had visited England to ask for an invasion army. He was not allowed to give his daughter away, as under Early Irish Law Aoife had the choice of whom she married, but she had to agree to an arranged marriage, that is, to select from a list of suitable suitors. "Under Anglo-Norman law, this gave Strongbow succession rights to the Kingdom of Leinster. Under Irish Brehon law, the marriage gave her a life interest only, after which any land would normally revert to male cousins; but Brehon law also recognised a transfer of 'swordland' following a conquest. Aoife conducted battles on behalf of her husband and is sometimes known as Red Eva (Irish: Aoife Rua)." | of Leinster, Eve (I8715)

| 2452 | Also called Arduino Glabrio, Glabrione, or il Glabro, meaning "the Bald". Count of Auriate from c. 935, count of Turin from c. 941/2, and Margrave of Turin from c. 950/64. Founder and namesake of the Arduinici dynasty. "Arduin was the eldest son of Roger, Count of Auriate (r. c. 906 – c. 935), a Frankish nobleman who immigrated to Italy in the early tenth century. The medieval county of Auriate comprised the region bounded by the Alps, the Po River, and the Stura, today the regions of the Saluzzese and Cuneese. Arduin succeeded his father as count of Auriate sometime around 935, but he is not documented as Count Arduin (Ardoino comes) until 13 April 945, when he sat in judgement at a conference (placitum) of Count Lanfranc at Pavia in the presence of King Lothair II."

| 2455 | Also called Arnoldus; Arnoul de Heristala. Ansegisel, Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia, widely accepted as his son, is a proven ancestor of Charlemagne. From Wikipedia: There are three legends associated with Arnulf: The Legend of the Ring Arnulf was tormented by the violence that surrounded him and feared that he had played a role in the wars and murders that plagued the ruling families. Obsessed by these sins, Arnulf went to a bridge over the Moselle river. There he took off his bishop's ring and threw it into the river, praying to God to give him a sign of absolution by returning the ring to him. Many penitent years later, a fisherman brought to the bishop's kitchen a fish in the stomach of which was found the bishop's ring. Arnulf repaid the sign of God by immediately retiring as bishop and becoming a hermit for the remainder of his life. The Legend of the Fire At the moment Arnulf resigned as bishop, a fire broke out in the cellars of the royal palace and threatened to spread throughout the city of Metz. Arnulf, full of courage and feeling unity with the townspeople, stood before the fire and said, "If God wants me to be consumed, I am in His hands." He then made the sign of the cross at which point the fire immediately receded. The Legend of the Beer Mug It was July 642 and very hot when the parishioners of Metz went to Remiremont to recover the remains of their former bishop. They had little to drink and the terrain was inhospitable. At the point when the exhausted procession was about to leave Champigneulles, one of the parishioners, Duc Notto, prayed "By his powerful intercession the Blessed Arnold will bring us what we lack." Immediately the small remnant of beer at the bottom of a pot multiplied in such amounts that the pilgrims thirst was quenched and they had enough to enjoy the next evening when they arrived in Metz. | St. Arnulf Bishop of Metz (I3993)

| 2456 | Also called Ascelin Gouel de Perceval; also called "Lupus" because of his violent temper. Commanded the Norman forces at the siege of Mantes. "He took part in William the Conqueror's invasion of the French Vexin in July 1087 and destroyed the vineyards round Mantes. He built a strongly fortified castle at Breval. In 1089 he took the castle of Ivry by stratagem from William de Bréteuil and delivered it up to Duke Robert. William redeemed the castle from the Duke and deprived Ascelin of the provostship (praesidiatum) of Ivry. Thereafter Ascelin captured William, and rigorously imprisoned him at Breval until he obtained his freedom on the terms of a money payment, the cession of the castle of Ivry and the marriage of his daughter Isabel to Ascelin. In the following year William attempted to retake the castle, but was defeated by Ascelin, the abbey of Ivry being burnt in the conflict. William then appealed to the King of France and the Duke of Normandy, who in, the spring of 1092, aided by a leve?e en masse of the surrounding population, besieged Ascelin at Breval. Ascelin was forced to capitulate and surrender the castle of Ivry, which was restored to William. On the death of William de Bréteuil in 1103, Ascelin took the part of William's nephew, Ralf de Grancei, against Eustace de Bréteuil, William's illegitimate son, in the struggle for the succession."

| 2464 | Also called Audrey, etc. VCH Warwickshire ("Parishes: Morton Morrell", pp. 118-122) says her mother was "daughter and coheir of Robert Peverel," but this is sourced only to Dugdale. Ray Phair, post to soc.genealogy.medieval, 7 Jun 2002: Cris Nash and earlier Dick Ledyard asked who was the father of Aubreye (Albreda) de Harcourt (d. 1205), wife of William Trussebut? There are at least three versions: A) Bridges claimed her father was Aubrey ('Albricius') de Harcourt [1], without providing any evidence. So far, no record of his existence has been found. Clay accepted this version, rather than the next one, because it was presented earlier [2]. B) Baker (according to Clay) and Eyton said her father was Rollo de Harcourt, without providing any evidence [2,3]. So far, no record of his existence has been found. Farrer and Sanders accepted this version; Clay dismissed it as without proof [4,2]. C) Crouch, in a very brief note, proposed that her father was Ivo de Harcourt, a younger son of Robert fitz Anschetil, lord of Harcourt [5]. Ivo, who appeared possibly as early as c.1140, was alive in 1166, but may have died later that year [5,6]. By two charters Aubreye gave land in "Brandestona" to Nuneaton priory, Warwickshire [2]. Clay has identified this location as Braunston, Northamptonshire, where Aubreye and her descendants are known to have held land; Round had earlier implied this was the location of her gift [2,7]. Crouch, on the other hand, thought it was Braunstone, Leicestershire; although based on more tentative evidence, it does provides a link to the family of Ivo de Harcourt. A descendant of Ivo's heir did later hold land there [8], but Crouch's version needs further study. [1] J. Bridges, "The history and antiquities of Northamptonshire", 1791, 1:26-7.

| 2482 | Also called Barisan of Ibelin. From Wikipedia (accessed 14 Jun 2020): Barisan of Ibelin was an important figure in the crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem, and was the founder of the Ibelin family. His name was later written as "Balian" and he is sometimes known as Balian the Elder, Barisan the Old or Balian I. Barisan was lord of Ramla from 1138-1150. Barisan's origins are obscure. The Ibelins later claimed to be descended from the viscounts of Chartres, but according to Peter W. Edbury, Barisan was probably from northern Italy. According to Jonathan Riley-Smith, however, he may have indeed been connected to Chartres, as the brother of Hugh of Le Puiset, Count of Jaffa; he would then have also been a cousin to the Montlhéry family of King Baldwin II of Jerusalem. However, nothing certain is known of his life before 1115, when he appears as constable of Jaffa under Hugh. In 1120 he was present at the Council of Nablus, where the first laws of the kingdom were promulgated, perhaps representing the new, underaged Count of Jaffa, Hugh II. Around the same year, his services were rewarded with a marriage to Helvis of Ramla, daughter of Baldwin I of Ramla. In 1134, when Hugh II rebelled against King Fulk, Barisan supported the king, and soon became prominent at Fulk's court. In 1141, perhaps as a reward for his loyalty in 1134, he was granted the newly constructed castle of Ibelin, located in the County of Jaffa between Jaffa itself and the Fatimid Egyptian fortress of Ascalon. It was from this castle that the family took their name. In 1148 Barisan inherited the nearby lordship of Ramla, through his wife Helvis. That year, Barisan was also present at the council convened at Acre after the arrival of the Second Crusade, at which it was decided to attack Damascus. Barisan died in 1150 and Ibelin was inherited by Hugh. Helvis then married Manasses of Hierges, Constable of Jerusalem. | of Ibelin, Balian (I28875)

[Royal Ancestry] "Starting in 1198, Pope Innocent III objected to the marriage on the grounds of consanguinity, though the couple stayed together until 1204. They vehemently sought a dispensation in order to stay together, including offering large sums of money. However, the pope denied their request, although they succeeded in having their children considered legitimate. Her marriage dissolved, Berengaria returned to Castile and to her parents in May 1204, where she dedicated herself to the care of her children."
