804 | I507 | Loftus | Adam | 22 Jun 1533 | 1604 | 0 | Much has been written about the talented but zealous Archbishop (Abp ) A d a m L o f tus whose life was suffused with intrigue and controversy . Adam w a s b o r n i n 1533 the second son of a monastic bailiff in the heart of th e Y o r k s hire Dales who died when Adam was only 8, leaving his estates to h i s e l d e r brother Robert. As an undergraduate at Cambridge University, h e r e p o r tedly attracted the notice of the young Queen Elizabeth, as much i t s e e m s b y alluring physique as through the power of his intellect, hav in g s h o n e before her with his powers of oratory. There is good reason t o b e l i e ve that this particular encounter may never have taken place but t h e y c e r tainly met more than once and the Queen was to become his patron , a r e l a t ionship that was to last her entire reign, coming to Adams res cue a t a n u m b er of times in his life when other less tolerant patrons m ight h av e w i t hheld sanction. Adam Loftus was appointed as one of the Q ueens C h a p l ains before she sent him to Ireland around 1559. |

806 | I7204 | Londres | Maurice | Abt 1080 | Aft 1141 | 0 | Maurice is credited with building the oblong keep at Ogmore Castle; it i s p e r h a ps the oldest Norman keep in Glamorgan. Situated north of the m ai n g a t e way, the keep was the first masonry building and was probably b u il t i n t h e 1120s. It is both the castle's tallest surviving building, a n d o n e o f t he oldest buildings in South Wales. "Though only three of th e o r i g i nal walls survive, their structure is characterized by irregular ly s h a p e d field stones, glacial pebbles, Lias limestone slabs, and brow n m o r t a r.

808 | I7439 | Longespée | William | 1176 | 7 Mar 1226 | 0 | Little is known of Longespiee's upbringing or early career, although in a l e t t e r o f 1220 to Hubert de Burgh he reminded the justiciar that they ha d b e e n b r ought up together. He received Appleby, Lincolnshire, from Hen ry I I i n 1 1 8 8, which suggests that by then he had attained his majority . I n 1 1 9 6 h is half-brother Richard I gave him in marriage Ela (or Isabe l) , c o u n tess of Salisbury (b. in or after 1190, d. 1261 ). A soldier an d a d m i n istrator made seneschal of Gascony in 1253 and lord justice of I re l a n d i n 125 9, and Nicholas (d. 1297), bishop of Salisbury from 1291 t o 1 2 9 7 .

809 | I777 | Longespée | William | Bef 12 May 1205 | 7 Feb 1249 | 0 | A minor at his father's death, Longespé e was knighted by his cousin He n r y I I I a t Gloucester at Whitsuntide 1233, but he must have attained hi s m a j o r ity before that since Henry had intended to knight him at Easter 1 2 3 0 . M o reover, in March 1230 Countess Ela was instructed to surrender t o W i l l i am all the lands she held of inheritance as the wife of William ( I ) L o n g espé e, along with other propertie s granted to her son by Henry i n 1 2 2 8 ? 9; and in November 1230 Willilliam paid homage for the lands cla im e d b y h i s wife, Idonea, as of heredit ary right. Earlier that year, h e h a d a c c ompanied Henry III on his ill- fated expedition to Brittany. T hi s w a s h i s first taste of military action, and for the rest of his sho r t l i f e h e was to be closely associated with his royal cousin, largely i n a m i l i t ary capacity. In the autumn of 1233, during the rebellion of R icha r d M a r shal, earl of Pembroke , he was at Henry's side in the operat ion s a g a i nst the Welslsh and other supporters of the earl. In 1234 he w as e n g a g ed in the pursuit and ar rest of Peter des Rivaux. After return ing f r o m h i s first crusade, he played a leading role in Henry III's exp edit i o n t o G a scony in 1242?3. The number of royal charters he attested t h e r e , a nd the fact that he generally heads the list of lay witnesses, i n d i c a tes his high standing in the king's regard and counsels. He fought a t t h e b a t t le of Saintes (July 1242), and was appointed captain of a nu mb e r o f s u bsequent operations, including the siege of Garro in 1243. Ba c k i n E n g land, Longespé e went in royal service to Wales in June 1245, i n r e s p o nse to the Welsh rising o f 1244/5 under Dafydd ap Llywelyn."

810 | I9406 | Longue-Épée | Guillaume | Abt 900 | 17 Dec 942 | 0 | William Longsword (French: Guillaume Longue-Épée, Old Norman: Williame d e l o n E s p ee, Latin: Willermus Longa Spata, Old Norse: Vilhjálmr Langasp jó t ; c . 8 9 3 - 17 December 942) was the second ruler of Normandy, from 9 2 7 u n t i l his assassination in 942. He is sometimes referred to as a "duke of Normandy", though the title d u k e ( d u x) did not come into common usage until the 11th century.[2] Lon g s w o r d was known at the time as count (Latin comes) of Rouen. Flodoard- a l w a y s detailed about titles-consistently referred to both Rollo and hi s s o n W i l liam as principes (chieftains) of the Normans. There are no co nt e m p o rary accounts of William's byname, 'Longsword', either; it appear s f i r s t i n later eleventh-century sources. Birth William Longsword was born "overseas" to the Viking Rollo (while he was s t i l l a p a gan) and his wife more danico (a kind of non-Christian marriag e ) , P o p pa of Bayeux. Poppa's parentage is uncertain. Dudo of Saint-Quen t i n i n h i s panegyric of the Norman dukes describes her as the daughter o f a C o u n t B erengar, the dominant prince of that region. In the 11th-cen tury A n n a l es Rotomagenses (Annals of Rouen), she is called the daughter o f G u y , C o unt of Senlis, otherwise unknown to history. According to the L o n g s w ord's planctus, William was baptized a Christian probably at the s a m e t i m e as his father, which Orderic Vitalis stated was in 912, by Fra n c o , A r chbishop of Rouen. William is not an Old Norse forename, and he m u s t h a v e been renamed as part of this process. |

He ruled Uisnech from 587 to 600.[2] The Marianus Scotus king list names Suibne mac Colmáin as High King of I r e l a n d.

838 | I9516 | mac Domnaill | Donnchad Midi | 733 | 6 Feb 797 | 0 | Donnchad mac Domnaill (733 - 6 February 797), called Donnchad Midi, was H i g h K i n g of Ireland. His father, Domnall Midi, had been the first Uí Né i l l H i g h King from the south-central Clann Cholmáin based in modern Cou n t y W e s tmeath and western County Meath, Ireland. The reigns of Domnall a n d h i s s u ccessor, Niall Frossach of the Cenél nEógain, had been relativ e l y p e a ceful, but Donnchad's rule saw a return to a more expansionist p o l i c y d irected against Leinster, traditional target of the Uí Néill, an d a l s o , f or the first time, the great southern kingdom of Munster. Donnchad continued his father's support for the Columban churches, led b y I o n a . I n his many wars he used the churches, particularly the Columba n m o n a s tery of Durrow, as a source of support. He also ruthlessly attac ke d a n d p l undered churches that supported his rivals among the Uí Néill a n d a l s o t hose of Leinster and Munster. Donnchad was remembered, not alw a y s f o n dly, as a warrior king. He firmly established Clann Cholmáin's d o m i n a nce among the Uí Néill kindreds of the midlands. His descendants s h a r e d i n the High Kingship until the time of Máel Sechnaill mac Domnail l , t h e l a st traditional High King of Ireland. Origins and background Donnchad was a son of Domnall Midi and Domnall's only known wife, Ailbí n e i n g e n Ailello of Ard Ciannacht, a minor kingdom of the coast north o f t h e R i v er Boyne. Domnall was reckoned High King of Ireland from 743, w h e n h e d e feated and killed Áed Allán of the northern Cenél nEógain bran c h o f t h e U í Néill, until his death on 20 November 763. |

839 | I6397 | Mac Dúnlainge | Ailill | Abt 830 | 871 | 0 | Ailill mac Dúnlainge (831 - 871) was a King of Leinster of the Uí Muire d a i g s e pt of the Uí Dúnlainge branch of the Laigin. This sept had their r o y a l s e at at Maistiu (Mullaghmast) in South Kildare in what is now Irel a n d . H e w as the son of Dúnlaing mac Muiredaig (died 869), a previous ki n g . H e r u led from 869-871. There is much confusion in the king lists during this period for Leinst e r . A i l ill is the first person awarded the title King of Leinster in th e A n n a l s of Ulster at his death notice since 838. Francis John Byrne su gg e s t s t hat the root of this apparent confusion lay in the fact that th e U í D ú n l ainge kings exercised little real authority due to the aggress io ns o f t h e ir western neighbour Cerball mac Dúnlainge (died 888), King o f O s r a i ge. Cerball, while unable to install himself as king of Leinster , w a s a b l e to prevent any rival king exercising real power there. In 870 the high king Áed Findliath (died 879) invaded Leinster and over r a n i t f r om Áth Cliath (Dublin) to Gabrán. Meanwhile, his ally Cerball m a c D ú n l ainge (died 888) of Osraige invaded Leinster from the west. He r e a c h e d Dún Bolg where his camp was attacked by the Laigin who were at f i r s t s u ccessful, but in a counter-attack they were put to flight. Ailil l ' s n a m e is not connected with these events which state that Muiredach m a c B r a i n was the King of Leinster who fought the forces of Cerball. The F r a g m e ntary Annals give a lengthy account of this event and state that C e r b a l l met up with the high king's forces at Belach Gabrán (the pass of G o w r a n i n east-central Osraighe) but both forces then retired and the ho s t a g e s of the Laigin were not taken. In 871 Ailill was killed by the Vikings of Dublin. |

840 | I9660 | Mac Dúnlainge | Cerball | Abt 869 | 888 | 0 | Cerball mac Dúnlainge (patronymic sometimes spelled Dúngaile, Irish: (d i e d 8 8 8 ) was king of Ossory in south-east Ireland. The kingdom of Ossor y ( O s r a ige) occupied roughly the area of modern County Kilkenny and wes te r n C o u nty Laois and lay between the larger provincial kingdoms of Mun s t e r a n d Leinster. Cerball came to prominence after the death of Fedelmid mac Crimthainn, K i n g o f M u nster, in 847. Ossory had been subject for a period to the Eóg a n a c h ta kings of Munster, but Feidlimid was succeeded by a series of we a k k i n g s who had to contend with Viking incursions on the coasts of Mun s t e r . A s a result, Cerball was in a strong position and is said to have b e e n t h e s econd most powerful king in Ireland in his later years.[4] Upo n h i s d e a th, he was succeeded by his brother Riagan mac Dúnlainge. |

842 | I9655 | Mac Gylocher | Morgrund | 1115 | 30 Mar 1182 | 0 | Morgund, who first appears on record as a witness to a charter by King D a v i d I . t o the monks of Dumfermline dated between 1147 and 1152,(5-567) b u t i f t h e d ates assigned to charters by him and his wife are accepted, h e m a y h a v e been Earl before or from 1141.(6-567) It is probable, howeve r, t h a t t h e later date is more correct. He is designed 'Mac Gyloclery,' o r s o n o f G y loclery, in one writ of undoubted credit, and has been descr ib e d a s t h e son of Gillocher, Earl of Mar, but this last statement at p r e s en t r ests only on a doubtful document, the authenticity of which is m u c h d i s puted, but according to which Morgund presented himself before K i n g W i l liam the Lyon, at Hindhop Burnemuthe, in the King's new forest ( ' a p u d H indhop Burnemuthe in mea nova foresta') on the tenth Kalend of J u n e ( 2 3 M ay) 1171, claiming the earldom of Mar, in presence of the coun c i l a n d a rmy of Scotland then assembled. The King thereupon, it is said , s u m m o ned an inquest, who found that Morgund was son and lawful heir o f G i l l o cher, Earl of Mar, upon which the King granted and restored the e a r l d o m to Morgund. The latter then further petitioned for the earldom o f M o r a y o n the same grounds, that his father Gillocher was last vest th er e i n . A nother inquest found that he was the true and lawful heir of Mo r a y , b u t because the King was heavily engaged in war with England, and t h e m e n o f M oray could not be subjected to his will, he was unable to do j u s t i c e to Morgund. But he promised that when he could terminate the war a n d s u b d ue the rebels, he would recognise the rights of Morgund to the e a r l d o m of Moray. |

843 | I7317 | Mac Lorcain | Cennetig | Abt 896 | 957 | 0 | Cennétig mac Lorcáin (died 951), was a prominent king of the Dál gCais ( o r " D a l cassians") and king of Tuadmumu. He raised the dynasty in power, f r o m r e g ional vassals of the kings of Munster, to challenging for the ki n g s h i p himself. He was the father of Brian Boru, who would continue Cen n é t i g 's war-like rise to power, by becoming High King of Ireland in 100 2 . He was the first King of the Dál gCais to lead an army outside his own t e r r i t ory (approximately modern day County Clare) and lead raids along t h e S h a n non, reaching as far north as Athlone. Through the 940s, Cennéti g e n g a g ed in an ongoing series of wars against the Eóganachta, the then r u l i n g d ynasties of Munster, with the aim of becoming king of Munster hi m s e l f . His daughter Orlaith married the High King Donnchad Donn as part o f a n a l l i ance between the Dál gCais and the Uí Neill against the King o f M u n s t er, Cellachán Caisil.

844 | I7701 | Mac Máel | Diarmait | Abt 1005 | 7 Feb 1072 | 0 | Diarmait mac Má el na mBó (died 7 February 1072) was King of Leinster, a s w e l l a s H igh King of Ireland (with opposition). He was one of the mos t i m p o r tant and significant kings in Ireland in the pre-Norman era. Diarmait belonged to the Uí Cheinnselaig, a kin group of south-east Le i n s t e r centred on Ferns. His father, Donnchad mac Diarmata, became know n m o r e c o mmonly by the epithet Má el na mBó ("Baldy of the Cattle"), h en c e D i a rmait's patronym. The last of Diarmait's ancestors to have been c o u n t e d as king of all Leinster, Crimthann mac É nnai, died in the late 5 t h c e n t ury; but Diarmait's more immediate forebears, most recently his g r e a t - grandfather Domnall mac Cellaig (died 974), had been counted among t h e k i n g s of the Uí Cheinnselaig. Diarmait's mother was Aife, daughter o f G i l l a P á traic mac Donnchada, king of Osraige. He had at least one si bl i n g , a b rother named Domnall whose son Donnchad mac Domnaill Remair l a t e r b e came king of Leinster. The Uí Cheinnselaig had been prominent in earlier times, but their pow e r h a d b e en broken at the battle of Á th Senaig in 738. The rival Uí D ú n l a i n ge, based in northern Leinster around Naas and Kildare, who also e n j o y e d the support of the powerful Clann Cholmá in kings of Mide, domin a t e d L e inster until the time of Brian Bó ruma. The decline of Clann Cho l m á i n , a nd the defeat inflicted on the Uí Dú nlainge, led by Má el Mó r d a m a c M u rchada, at the battle of Clontarf in 1014, changed the politic a l l a n d scape to favour the Uí Cheinnselaig once more. The return of the Vikings to Ireland in the early 10th century occasion e d t h e d e velopment of new towns on the coasts. The towns, centres of tr a d e a n d m anufacture, would give significant political power to those wh o c o u l d c ontrol their wealth. Kings of Leinster found themselves in a p ar t i c u larly advantageous position to exploit this new wealth as three o f t h e f i v e principal towns lay in or near Leinster. In Leinster proper, i n t h e s o u th-eastern corner dominated by the Uí Cheinnselaig, lay Wexfo rd . T o t h e w est of this, in the smaller kingdom of Osraige, which had b e en a t t a ched to Leinster since the late 10th century, was Waterford. Fi n al l y , t he most important Viking town in Ireland, Dublin, lay at the no r t h - e astern edge of Leinster. Compared to this, kings in the north and w e s t o f I r eland had easy access to no towns, while those in the south, i n M u n s t er, had access to two: Cork on the south coast and Limerick on t he w e s t c o ast. |

Niall, son of Áedh, king of Ireland, led a n a r m y o f t he southern and northern Uí Néill to Munster to make war on t h e h e a t hens. He halted on the 22nd day of the month of August at Topar G l e t h r ach in Mag Feimin (near Clonmel). The heathens had come into the d i s t r i ct on the same day. The Irish attacked them between the hour of ti e r c e a n d midday and they fought until eventide, and about a hundred men , t h e m a j ority foreigners, fell between them. Reinforcements came from t h e c a m p o f the foreigners to aid their fellows. The Irish turned back t o t h e i r c amp in face of the last reinforcement, (Ragnall) king of the d ar k f o r e igners, accompanied by a large force of foreigners.

Bran was a rival of Ruaidrí mac Fáeláin (died 785) of the Uí Fáeláin se p t f o r t h e throne. In 780 the high king Donnchad Midi (died 797) campai g n e d a g ainst Leinster and defeated Ruaidrí mac Fáeláin, devastating the t e r r i t ory of his adherents. That same year a congress of the synods of U í N é i l l a nd Laigin was held at Tara and peace was restored. Donnchad ma y h a v e b e en campaigning in the interests of Bran and he may have been i ns t a l l ed as king at this congress. In 782 Bran was defeated and captured at the battle of Curragh (near Ki l d a r e ) by Ruaidrí. Brans's allies Mugrón mac Flainn, king of Uí Failgi, a n d D u b d á C rích son of Laidcnén of the Uí Cheinnselaig were slain. Bran s u c c e e ded to the throne in 785. Bran had married Eithne ingen Domnaill (died 795), the sister of Donnch a d M i d i , the high king of the Clann Cholmáin. This relationship ensured g o o d r e l ations with the high king during his reign. In 794 Donnchad led a h o s t i n g into Munster to protect the Laigin.

853 | I94 | MacCallum | Stephen Edward | 2 Sep 1825 | 11 Jun 1892 | 0 | As a young man of 20, set out from his home on Prince Edwards Island, accompanied with a company of men on the Brig Fanny (which they had purchased), to come to California for the Gold Rush. Departed. 11/12/1849, leaving Charlottetown, P.E.I. with Capt. A. Campbell Irving and Stephen MacCallum listed in the ships company as shipwright. [See Scrapbook, "Passenger List of Brig Fanny"]. It was a small schooner on which they set sail, but stanchly built. It took 7 1/2 months before they rounded Cape Horn [See Scapbook:"Brig Fanny trip map" for map of trip] and many times they despaired of ever reaching land. One day, during the voyage, Stephen shot an albatross, which fell on the deck, not knowing that it was regarded by the sailors as a good omen bird. However, the bird was cooked and enjoyed because the food in those days consisted mostly of salt fish and meat. A storm came up soon after the bird was devoured. The sailors cursing and making threats against Stephen for shooting the albatross. They arrived in San Francisco June 1850 after a seven month journey. Stephen wisely gave up prospecting for business and agriculture. His prosperous woodyard was destroyed by the first great S.F. fire of 1851. Undaunted he purchased a ranch which now surround the Mission San Jose. This land later became part of the vast Stanford Vineyard which is still producing vintage wines and Champagnes. From here he shipped vegetables by barge to S. F. only to have them arrive in the midst of a cholera epidemic. The authorities dumped them in the bay. He contracted smallpox and was deserted by his frightened partner who looked thru the cabin window opening and took off. Without care and water Stephen dragged himself to the spring and managed to recover. This rancho would have made him really wealthy but he decided to return to his P.E.I. sweetheart. On the way to the settlement he saw a card ahead on the path. He agreed that if the card was anything except the ace of spades he would sell out and leave. However, when the card actually was the spade ace he dismissed this as superstition and went anyhow. [I've always wondered about this story since Miriam was born in 1835, 36 or 39, making her only 10 to 14 years old when Stephen sailed for California. Maybe she wasn't the sweetheart he returned to. He married Miriam L. McCallum, no blood relationship as her branch were Highlanders and his Lowlanders. His heart was always in San Francisco and most of his children came to California. However, she was a stubborn Scot (Is there any other kind?) and only came to California about ten years after his death. Contrary to the sketchy account of the voyage of the "Fanny" in Keilly's "History of the Montgomery Settler " McCallum came home by ship to Panama, by canoe across the Isthmus where he lost a bag of gold and then home by ship. |

In 1034, the 30 year old Duncan MacCri n a n w a s e lected High King of Scotland (or Alba as it was called then). A s H i g h K i ng, Duncan soon became unpopular. His most unpopular move was t o f i g h t w ars in both the south in Northumbria and in the north against T h o r f i nn of Orkney at almost the same time. In Northumbria, he sent repe a t e d c a valry charges against the fortified walls of Durham. Onces the S c o t t i sh cavalry was destroyed in this way the city troops counter attac k e d a n d k illed thoussands of the Scottish infantry. Ducan MacCrinan ret r e a t e d from Northumbria leaving the heads of his massacred troops impal e d a r o u nd the walls of Durham. MacCrinan then combined his remaining me n w i t h t h e defeated troops commanded by his nephew Moddan. Moddan army w a s i n r e t reat itself after being forced to withdraw from Caithness and S u t h e r land by Thorfinn. The High King attacked Thorfinn at sea while M o d d a n w as to attack by land. While awaiting reinforcements from Iriish m e r c e n aries, Moddan force attacked was while they slept and destoryed. D u n c a n 's fleet of eleven ships was defeated at sea by Thorfinn and chase d i n t o t h e Moray Firth. While Duncan escaped inland, two Orkney fleets r a m s h a cked the costal settlments. On August 14, 1040, HIgh King Duncan o n c e a g a in attacked Thorfinn only to be once again defeated. After this d e f e a t , the ruling clans of Scotland had enough of Duncans expansionism a n d i n a b ility to rule or command. A group of them headed by MacBeth di s p o s e d of Duncan and MacBeth was eleted as the New High King. |

864 | I45638 | Macy | Thomas | Apr 1608 | 19 Apr 1682 | 0 | After their marriage, and previous to their having any children, in 1640, they emigrated to America and settled in Salisbury, Essex County, MA, where he became the possessor of a 1000 acres of land with a good house and barn upon it and a fair amount of stock. He resided on that land for nearly 20 years; during that time he had seven children, the youngest of whom was John, born 1657. During the time that Thomas Macy resided at Salisbury, MA, great dissensions and religious intolerance arose among the people, which led to violent persecution. Laws were passed of the most oppressive character, among them one enacting that any person who should entertain any of the people called Quackers, should pay a fine of five pounds for every hour of such entertainment. Notwithstanding they had emigrated to America to avoid persecution and for the enjoyment of religious liberty, they themselves, as soon as they obtained power, became persecutors in turn, and inflicted harsher and more cruel penalties than those which they had escaped by forsaking the land from whence they came. Thomas Macy, by giving shelter from a storm to four Quakers, violated the law and was consequently prosecuted. This resulted in his removing in the fall of 1659 in an open boat from Salisbury to Nantucket where he, with his family, spent the first year alone among 1500 Indians who occupied the island. Of the four Quakers entertained by Thomas Macy, two, William Robinson, merchant of London, and Marmaduke Stephenson of Yorkshire, England, being banished Quakers, were hung in Boston the 27th of October 1659, for the offense of holding and preaching the doctrine of that sect. A letter written by the Nantucket Historical Assoc. in 1974 states...... Not only was Thomas Macy our first white settler but many of his descendants did a great deal to spread its name and fame. We have a famous Macy House flag which flew on Macy ships all over the world in our Whaling Museum and this year will have the Nathaniel Macy House... built in 1720 as one of our permanent exhibits, plus considerable Macy memorabilia principally acquired by William Macy, our first President of the Association in 1894. |

Under the last Carolingian and first Capetian kings of France, royal po w e r d e c lined sharply and many royal rights were amassed by the greater a n d l e s s er nobility. Herbert of Maine even struck coins with his own mon o g r a m . He purchased the loyalty of his vassals by dolling out his land t o t h e m a n d granting them the right to build castles, which proliferated . From the beginning of his reign, he was constrained to aid his suzerain , F u l k I I I of Anjou, in a war against Odo II of Blois, both of whom had d e s i g n s on the Touraine. In 1016, following an attack on the fortress of M o n t r i chard, Odo met the forces of Fulk at the Battle of Pontlevoy on 6 J u l y . D e spite Odo's numerical advantage, by the intervention of Herbert, t h e b a t t le went to Fulk. One of the consequences of the battle was to cr e a t e a b a lance of power in the region, which was followed by peace for s e v e r a l years. |

He enjoyed the confidence of Governor Lovelace, served as a member of his council, and when the governor was called to any distance from the city, Fort James and public affairs were placed in Manning's charge. While he was thus in command, in 1673, the Dutch fleet arrived and demanded the surrender of the fort, which, after some resistance, was given up. He sailed for England, waited on the king and Duke of York, and explained to them the particulars of the surrender, on hearing which the king, Charles II, turned to the duke and said: "Brother, the ground could not be maintained with so few men." Captain Manning returned to New York with Governor Andros, and was soon afterward tried by court-martial on charges of treachery and cowardice. He was acquitted of the former but found guilty of cowardice, and on 5 February, 1675, sentenced to have his sword broken over his head and rendered incapable of again holding office under his majesty, which sentence would scarcely seem justified from the facts of the surrender. He retired to the island that had been granted to him in 1688, then called " Manning's Island," but since well known as Blackwell's island, where he was accustomed to entertain his friends. |

883 | I37721 | Martin | Elizabeth | 16 Dec 1710 | 9 Feb 1757 | 0 | The following paragraphs are from Margaret Haynes' "Items of Family History" written 1902; There had come from Barbados to Charles Town a couple by the name of Martin who had died leaving behind a daughter Betty, one of those rare creatures about whom legends spring up. Young she certainly was, but Jacob must have been mistaken when he wrote that she was fifteen at the time of her marriage, because the fame of her enchanting personality had already spread through the province, and she was the greatest belle who ever lived in Charles Town. Her charm became part of the old town's folk lore and survives in a song "Young Betty Martin, tip toe fine, couldn't get a husband to suit her mind." She had too many beaux, and she was very fickle. When sturdy, homely Jacob finally won her as his wife, he had fought a duel for her hand in St. Philip's churchyard with his most serious rival. |

William I probably gave him e x t e n s ive lands in England during his father's lifetime, as there is no e v i d e n ce that the latter was ever an English landowner. By 1086 Ralph was in the second rank of the Anglo-Norman baronage. His p o s s e s sions in England, like those of many others, had been accumulated i n s t a g e s. The earliest major component was the Hampshire estate of the E n g l i s h thegn Cypping of Worthy, whose chief manor of Headbourne Worthy o n t h e o u t skirts of Winchester became Mortimer's capital in southern Eng la n d e v e n though it was held only on a lease of three lives (Ralph's be i n g t h e t hird) from the Old Minster at Winchester.

Jacob never forgot that voyage from Cork to Charles Town. It lasted five weeks, which was excellent time for those days when passengers often tossed for two, even three months on a stormy ocean and were reduced to a fare of moldy biscuits, salt beef and stale water. In 1713 he was bound as an apprentice to Francis Le Brasseur "for the term of seven years which he faithfully served out. He then entered into partnership in a iron monger's shop with his uncle Charles Hill until the year 1725, when he married.

Another patent book provides the names of Brooke's servants brought by him in 1650, and the only maid servant named Abigail is "Abagail Mountague". Also bolstering this statement is the fact that John Shanks in his 1683 will named an Indian servant boy living in his house that he called "James Monticue." Robert Brooke, Esq. (1602-1655), had ties to Hampshire, Sussex, and London. There was an Abigail Montague christened in London in 1639 who left neither a marriage or death record there. That might be a place to check for the origin of John Shanks' wife. |

This sept had thei r r o y a l s eat at Maistiu (Mullaghmast) in South Kildare. He was the son o f M u i r e dach mac Brain (died 818), a previous king. He ruled from 863 t o 8 6 9 . There is much confusion in the king lists during this period for Leinst e r . B e t ween 838 and 871 the title King of Leinster is not recorded in t h e A n n a ls of Ulster. The death of Dúnlaing is not recorded in this anna l b u t i s r e corded in other annals.[2] Francis John Byrne suggests that t h e r o o t o f this apparent confusion lay in the fact that the Uí Dúnlaing e k i n g s e xercised little real authority due to the aggressions of their w e s t e r n neighbour Cerball mac Dúnlainge (died 888), King of Osraige. Cer b a l l , w hile unable to install himself as king of Leinster, was able to p r e v e n t any rival king exercising real power there.

She was shortly thereafter, in 1622 or 1623, married to John Alden, the Mayflower's cooper, who had decided to remain at Plymouth rather than return to England with the ship. John and Priscilla lived in Plymouth until the late 1630s, when they moved north to found the neighboring town of Duxbury.

He married a woman named Alice, but her maiden name has not been identified. Longstanding claims that her maiden name is Atwood, or Poretiers, are without basis. Recent research in Dorking records has suggested that Alice is more likely to have come from the Browne, Gardinar, Dendy, Hammon or Wood families, perhaps even related to Mayflower passenger Peter Browne who also came from Dorking. See the Alice Mullins page for additional discussion on her possible identity. William brought his wife Alice and children Priscilla and Joseph on the Mayflower; he also brought over 250 shoes and 13 pairs of boots, his profession being a shoemaker. He died on 21 February 1620/1, during the first winter at Plymouth, as did his wife and son Joseph. His original will has survived, written down by Governor John Carver. In it he mentions his wife Alice, children Priscilla and Joseph, and his children back in Dorking, William Mullins and Sarah Blunden. He also mentions a Goodman Woods (likely a reference to the Wood family in Dorking), and a Master Williamson, who have not been identified, but is possibly an alias for William Brewster. It was witnessed by the Mayflower's master Christopher Jones, the Mayflower's surgeon Giles Heale, and governor John Carver. |

He held the office of Provost of Edinburgh between 1453-5 and 1457. He was knighted in 1460/1, possibly at James III's coronation.

961 | I45522 | Nijssen | Teunis | Abt 1615 | 1663 | 0 | His name was not Teunis Denyse / Teunis De Nys / Teunis Denise No, our ancestor never used this name in his lifetime. Not one record shows him with this. Why leave it here? Because later genealogists, thinking that his name means of Nys, decided to use this form of his surname rather than the one he chose to use in his lifetime, Nyssen, Niessen, or Nijsson, all meaning son of Nijs or Nys, short for Dionys or Dionjs, the Dutch spelling with the J being more preferable than the Y. We should follow what the records say he used, not what we think might be the best name for him. |

977 | I7574 | Of Chester | Gundred | Abt 1063 | 27 May 1085 | 0 | William De Warenne personal prowess no special anecdote has been preser v e d , a n d it is as the husband of the mysterious Gundred, or Gundrada , t h a t h i s n ame has descended to the present day with any special interest a t t a c h ed to it. Whether the hand of this lady was bestowed upon him prev i o u s l y to his services at Senlac, or as a part of his reward for them, d o e s n o t a ppear, and our ignorance of the date of their marriage has bee n t h e p r i ncipal obstacle in the way of those who have so hotly disputed h e r r e l a tionship to William the Conqueror, for could we even arrive at a n a p p r oximate date it might enable us to calculate her probable age at t h a t p e r iod, and whether she was born before or after 1053, on which fac t d e p e n ds the whole question. That they were married before 1078 is cer ta i n , a s i n that year they founded the Priory of Lewes in Sussex, and w e h a v e t h e charters of King William, which he granted to that establish me n t f o r t he health of the souls of his lord and ancestor, King Edward, o f h i s f a t her Count Robert, of his own soul and that of his wife, Queen M a t i l d a,and of all their children and successors, and for the souls of W i l l i a m de Warren and his wife Gundrada, his (William's) daughter and th e i r h e i rs. The words "my daughter" would be decisive of her being the a c k n o w ledged child of the King; but independently of their being scarcel y l e g i b le, it is contended that they are in a different and later hand; a n d t h e r e is this to be observed, which I do not remember having seen no t i c e d , that the King has just previously used the expression "our child r e n a n d s uccessors" (filiorum atquesuccesso rum nostror um"), so that h i s p a r t icula rising Gundrada as "mydaughter " would imply that she was n o t b y h i s w ife Matilda. Exactly in opposition to this is the declaratio n o f W i l l iam de Warren himself, in whose charter to the priory, granted a f t e r t h e death of Gundred in childbirth (6 kalends of June, 1085), he s t a t e s h is donations to be for the salvation of the souls, amongst other s , o f h i s l ady Queen Matilda, mother of his wife excluding in turn King W i l l i a m from any share in her parentage. |

The early part of his reign was spent in c o n f lict with the Hungarian king Matthias Corvinus, who in 1478 (Treaty o f O l o mouc) won title to the previously Bohemian crownlands of Moravia, S i l e sia, and Lusatia. After Matthias died, however, Vladislas was electe d k i n g of Hungary as Ulászló II in 1490. During his compliant and vacil la t i ng reign, in both Bohemia and Hungary, the nobility widely extended t h e i r powers and strengthened their hold over an already oppressed peasa n t r y. Vladislas was also faced with the rivalry of the Holy Roman emper o r M a ximilian I for the Hungarian crown and was obliged to concede the H a b s burg succession to his territories should his own line be extinguish e d ( P eace of Pressburg, 1491; Treaty of Vienna, 1515); that agreement g r e a tly contributed to the eventual formation of a Habsburg Danubian emp i r e . |

Domhnall adhered to the cause of David II during the Second War of Scottish Independence. King David II stayed at Dumbarton on at least twelve occasions between 1341 and 1346. King David along with Malcolm Fleming and many other Scottish nobles were taken prisoner by the English at the Battle of Neville's Cross in 1346. Earl Domhnall attended the parliament at Edinburgh 26 September 1357 and with others there appointed the plenipotentiaries to negotiate the ransom of King David. The earl received a charter from King David II dated 2 May 1361 confirming an extensive grant of forestry made by Alexander III of Scotland.[1] Domhnall had one issue by an unknown wife of one daughter, Margaret who married a kinsman Baltar mac Amlaimh, more usually known as Walter of Faslane thus keeping the earldom in the same line. Domhnall died between May 1361 and November 1364 when Walter of Faslane was styled Earl of Lennox. |

996 | I7811 | of Mar | Isabella | Abt 1280 | Bef 1302 | 0 | Isabella of Mar (fl. c. 1277 - 12 December 1296) was the first wife of Robert Bruce VII, Earl of Carrick. Isabella died before her husband was crowned (as Robert I) King of Scotland. She and her husband were the grandparents of Robert II, King of Scotland, founder of the Royal House of Stuart . Isabella was the daughter of Domhnall I, Earl of Mar (died 1297 - 1302) and Helen (died after 1295), widow of Máel Coluim II, Earl of Fife. Isabella's father was evidently an adherent of Robert Bruce V, Lord of Annandale (died 1295), a man who staked a claim to the Scottish throne. The close relationship between Domhnall's family and the Bruces is evidenced by two marriages; the first between Isabella and Robert, and the second between Domhnall's son and comital successor, Gartnait (died c.1302) , and a sister of Robert Bruce VII. The marriage of Robert Bruce VII and Isabella probably took place in the 1290s. The union produced a single child, a daughter named Marjorie (died 1316), who was born in about 1296. Robert and Isabella's daughter, Marjorie, married Walter Stewart, Steward of Scotland, and their son eventually reigned as Robert II, King of Scotland (died 1390). |

"Waltheof was the last of the Old English earls to survive under Willia m I , h i s e x ecution for treason in 1076 marking a significant stage in t he a r i s t ocratic and tenurial revolution which followed 1066. As one of the few English magnates not from the Godwin faction, he acce p t e d a n d was accepted by William I, witnessing royal charters and remai n i n g l o yal to the new regime until 1069 when he joined with the Danes i n t h e i r i nvasion of Northumbria. He was prominent in their capture of York, hoping, no doubt, to be rest o r e d t o h is father's position. This opportunism is perhaps more charact e r i s t ic of English magnate reactions to the political turmoil of 1065-7 0 t h a n a n y supposed national feeling. However, the revolt and invasion w e r e d e f eated by William's winter campaign of 1069-70. It is a measure of William's insecurity that when Waltheof submitted in 1 0 7 0 h e w a s restored to royal favour and, in 1072, added the earldom of N o r t h u mbria to his holdings. To bind him more tightly to the Norman disp e n s a t ion, William gave him his niece Judith in marriage. But in 1075, W a l t h e of was implicated in the largely French revolt led by Ralph, earl o f N o r f o lk, and Roger, earl of Hereford. Despite his lack of military ac ti o n , h i s confession, apparent contrition and the support of Archbishop L a n f r a nc, Waltheof was executed on 31 May 1076. The king's motives are obscure. Waltheof was the only prominent English m a n t o b e e xecuted in the reign. Perhaps his removal was part of Willia m ' s j u s tifiably nervous response to the problem of controlling Northumb r i a . I t m ay have made sense to take the chance to remove a potential -- - a n d p r o ven --- focus of northern discontent. Yet Waltheof's heirs wer e n o t h a r ried, one daughter, Matilda, marrying David I of Scotland (104 2- 5 3 ) , a nd another Ralph IV of Tosny, a leading Norman baron. Waltheof is a significant reminder that the period around 1066 was tran s i t i o nal, with no necessarily definite beginnings or endings. Waltheof a d a p t e d to the new order, falling foul, it seems, of the ambitions and s c h e m e s of others, not least of parvenus Frenchmen. He married into the n e w e l i t e, yet embodied the old. Heir to both English and Anglo-Danish t r a d i t ions, it was he who completed one of the most celebrated of Anglo- S a x o n b lood-feuds. In 1016, Uchtred, earl of Northumbria was murdered by a northern noblem a n c a l l ed Thurbrand. He was, in turn, killed by Uchtred's son and succe s s o r , E aldred, who was himself slain by Thurbrand's son, Carl. Waltheof ' s m o t h er was Ealdred's daughter and he avenged his great-grandfather a n d g r a n dfather by massacring a number of Carl's sons. === Burial === bur. Crowland Abbey where,body initially thrown in a ditch, but wa s r e t r i eved and buried in chapter house of Croyland Abbey. (Royal Ancestry) Waltheof, Earl of Northumberland was executed at Winch e s t e r , Hampshire 31 May 1075 (or 1076). Two weeks afterwards the king a l l o w e d his body to be removed to Croyland Abbey, Lincolnshire, where th e a b b o t b uried him in the chapterhouse.; his remains were subsequently t r a n s l ated into the church near the altar. Waltheof had posthumous fame in a cult that venerated him as a saint by t h e m i d - twelfth centuryCult of martyrdom: In 1092, after a fire in t h e c h a p ter house, the abbot had Waltheof's body moved to a prominent pl a c e i n t h e abbey church. When the coffin was opened, it is reported tha t t h e c o r pse was found to be intact with the severed head re-joined to t h e t r u n k. This was regarded as a miracle, and the abbey, which had a fi n a n c i al interest in the matter began to publicise it. As a result, pilg r i m s b e gan to visit Waltheof's tomb. : After a few years healing miracles began to occur in the vicinity of W a l t h e of's tomb, often involving the restoration of the pilgrim's lost s i g h t . Yet his career in the north shows that not far beneath the m e a s u r ed tones of Norman propagandists or the efficient gloss of English b u r e a u cratic procedures simmered the violence of Dark Age epic.

Although she was completely devoted to her husband, and staunchly defended him against the rebel Simon de Montfort, 6th Earl of Leicester, she was very much hated by the Londoners. This was because she had brought a large number of relatives with her to England in her retinue; these were known as "the Savoyards", and they were given influential positions in the government and realm. On one occasion, Eleanor's barge was attacked by angry citizens who pelted her with stones, mud, pieces of paving, rotten eggs and vegetables. Eleanor was the mother of five children including the future King Edward I of England. She also was renowned for her cleverness, skill at writing poetry, and as a leader of fashion. |

It is not known when he arrived in America but he was settled in Plymouth by 1634 when he was listed as one able to bear arms. He was a blacksmith by trade. There is apparently no conclusive proof that Robert is the son of John Paddock and Jane Jennings; however, both John and Robert were blacksmiths, and Robert's children shared names with those of John's family and descendents. The name has several spellings: Paddocke, Paddock, Padduck or Padoc. The name of the ship and the year of his emigration remain unknown. [Robert Paddock’s name was not found on a ship’s log but he would have arrived at Plymouth after 1627 and before 1630 considering the death of his first wife in Ireland in 1627 and the marriage to his second wife on October 12, 1630, at Plymouth, Massachusetts Bay, United States.] The New England Historical and Genealogical Register, Volume 12, Page 220: "The Family of Paddock" |

He was married in 1659 to Mrs Deborah Sears, born in this town, and now survives him, having lived together about 68 years, and by her, God blest him with a numerous offspring, especially in the third and fourth generations, having left behind him of his own posterity, 48 grand-children and 38 great grand-children, and of this latter sort no less than 30 descendants from his second son. The old gentleman, his wife, one of his sons and his wife lived for a considerable time in a house by themselves, without any other person, when their ages computed together, amounted to over 300 years. Mr Paddock had obtained the character of a righteous man, and his widow, now near fourscore and eight years old, is well reputed for good works."["N.E. Weekly News Letter."] |

She was the second wife of Louis the S t a m m e rer, King of West Francia and mother of Charles the Simple. Adelaide was daughter of the count palatine Adalard of Paris.

This accomplished, C h a r l e s married his son to Adelaide in February 875. However, the marria g e w a s c a lled into question because of the close blood-kinship of the p a i r .

Sometime before 1642, he emigrated to New England, settling in Watertown, Massachusetts. It is not clear if Phebe accompanied him or whether she died in England. In any case, George married a Susanna Simpson in New England and had five more sons with her. In 1655, he petitioned the General Court of Massachusetts to sell a piece of land in his wife's estate in order that he might return to England to aid his wife who had already returned with their five youngest children. He claimed that his wife and children were destitute and that his age was 67 years at that time. He probably left for England soon after 1655 and was buried at St. Lawrence church in Ipswich, England, June 18, 1675. He may have been the "Old George Parkhurst" who was buried on 18 June 1675 at the Church of Saint Lawrence, Ipswich. All his older children remained in New England. |

1045 | I8251 | Phillips | Sophia Josephine | 1803 | 1865 | 0 | From (cousin) Eva Evans manuscript re: BJB ggg grandmother, Sophia Phillips Saunders McCullough and gg grandmother, Isabelle Saunders Byrd. (Winfield Saunders changed the spelling of name to Sanders in adulthood) Grannie, (Isabelle Saunders Byrd) my mother's mother, lived next door to us on some land Dad (Chris Evans) had given her out of our block. Grannie was a Tennessee Mountain woman, and had had a very hard life. She had only been to school for three months, but she could read and write and spell better than any of us, because until she was a middle -aged woman she only had three books; a Bible, a dictionary, and a "Dr. King's Doctor Book'. This had belonged to her mother, and had pictures of herbs in it. This great-grandmother McCullough was a remarkable woman. She was six feet tall, could ride and shoot, and was not afraid of anybody or anything. She came to California in 1852, with my grandparents and their two children, crossing the plains with a covered wagon caravan, and though they were not attacked by the Indians, they had several narrow escapes. "Once they came upon a butchered train, the ruins of the wagons still smoking, and the mutilated bodies not yet cold. They washed them and gave them a Christian burial, expecting to be attacked any moment. They went to the mines in Amador County, and during the seven years they lived there, Grannie cooked in a fireplace, in cabins with dirt floors, and had three more children . . . There wasn't a doctor in the country, so Great-grandmother McCullough got out her 'Dr. King's' and started looking for herbs and making medicine. She knew how to set broken bones, so in a little while she was going miles to care for the sick. The Tule River Indians were on a rampage at this time; but she had some saddlebags, so she would put her medicine on one side and her gun on the other, and away she would go. What cared she for Indians!" It could be that the legacy provided by the example of her mother and grandmother led to Sophia Josephine Byrd's (McClelland) interest in medicine which she pursued as a young woman, becoming the first or one of the first degreed women physicians in California. Sophia's birthplace is stated as Ireland on several of children's death certificates, but in census, Sophie is always listed as born in Tennessee. Perhaps her parents or grandparents were from Ireland, or less likely, she indeed was born in Ireland, but grew up in TN. |

1049 | I9335 | Pickett | John | Abt 1629 | 16 Aug 1667 | 0 | John, a successful merchant, was the son of John Pickett Sr.,and Elizabeth Ives. He married Ruth Brewster about 3/14/1651, probably by Mr. Winthrop. Unfortunately, there are no written records to substantiate the date. The Mayflower "Birth & Death" records do document the children of John and Ruth. They had three sons and three daughters. Sadly, John died at sea, returning from Barbados. At the time of his death, his estate was sufficient enough to rank him as one of the wealthiest merchants in New London.

Grifo, was imprisoned in a monastery ... Carloman, r e t i red to a monastery in 747. This left Pippin as sole mayor and dux et p r i n ceps Francorum, a title originated by his grandfather and namesake P i p p in of Heristal. Under reorganization of Francia by Charles Martel the dux et princeps F r a n corum were the kingdom's army commanders, palace mayor, and specific a l l y commander of the year-round standing guard Martel began in 721. Pippin and Carloman, installed Childeric III as a puppet king, even tho u g h M artel left the throne vacant since the death of Theuderic IV. When Carloman's retired, Grifo escaped and fled to Duke Odilo of Bavari a , w h o was married to Hiltrude. Odilo was forced by Pippin to acknowled g e F r ankish overlordship, but died soon after (January 18, 748). Pippin i n v a ded Bavaria and installed Tassilo III as duke under Frankish overlor d s h ip. Since Pippin controlled the magnates and was the de facto ruler, he mad e t h e C arolingian name royal in law as well as fact. Pippin asked Pope Z a c h ary who should be the royal ruler: the person with the title of King , o r t h e person who makes the decisions as King. Since the Pope depende d o n t h e Frankish armies for his independence, and had depended on them f o r p r otection from the Lombards since the days of Charles Martel, and P i p p in, as his father had, controlled those armies, the Pope's answer wa s d e t ermined well in advance. The Pope agreed that de facto power was more important than de jure. Th u s , P ippin, having obtained the support of the papacy, discouraged oppo s i t ion. With an army at his side to enforce the Papal Bull, Pepin was e l e c ted King of the Franks by an assembly of leading Franks and anointed a t S o i ssons, perhaps by Boniface, Archbishop of Mainz. Meanwhile, Grifo c o n t inued rebellion, but was eventually killed in the battle of Saint-Je a n d e M aurienne in 753. : He added to that power after Pope Stephen II traveled all the way to P a r i s to anoint Pippin in a lavish ceremony at Saint Denis Basilica, bes t o w ing upon him the additional title of patricius Romanorum (Patrician o f t h e R omans). As life expectancies were short in those days, and Pippi n w a n ted family continuity, the Pope also anointed Pippin's sons, Charl es ( e v entually known as Charlemagne) and Carloman. : Pippin fell ill in 768 and died in September of that year at Saint De n i s w here he is interred in the basilica with his wife Bertrada.Se t t i pani, Christian.

Her siblings were Edward I of England, Margaret, Queen of Scotland, Edmund Crouchback, 1st Earl of Lancaster, Richard of England, John of England, Katherine of England, William of England, and Henry of England. She and her family were members of the Royal house of Plantagenet, which first ruled in the 12th century and was founded by Henry II of England. At one point, Henry conducted negotiations for Beatrice to marry the king of France and also rejected a proposal that she should wed the son of the King of Norway. When she was eighteen she married John de Dreux, heir to the dukedom of Brittany. Beatrice later changed her name to Beatrice de Dreux. |

He was a younger brother of E d w a r d I o f England, Margaret of England, and Beatrice of England, and a n o l d e r b rother of Katherine of England. In his childhood he had a claim on the Kingdom of Sicily, but he never r u l e d t h ere. In 1255 (at the age of 10) he was invested ruler of the Ki n g d o m o f Sicily and Apulia by the Bishop of Romania, on behalf of Pope I n n o c e nt IV. In return his father undertook to pay the papacy 135,541 m a r k s a n d fight a war to dislodge Manfred of Sicily from the kingdom. Up o n I n n o cent's death, Pope Alexander IV confirmed Edmund's grant of Sici l y . H e n ry's barons refused to contribute to what they called the " Sici l i a n b u siness" and ultimately Henry was only able to pay 60,000 marks. S t e p h e n Runciman says the grant of the kingdom was revoked by Pope Alexa n d e r I V o n 18 December 1258; Edmund renounced his claim to the crown o f S i c i l y. At about the same time Edmund was granted Sicily, he was made Earl of C h e s t e r. In 1263, the Earldom of Chester was transferred to his elder br o t h e r E dward, who required the palatinate income. |

He outlived his e l d e st son, Edward the Black Prince, and was succeeded by his grandson, R i c h ard II. His father, Edward II, was forced from power by his own wife Isabel and R o g e r M o rtimer. Edward II abdicated the throne of England in favor of h i s s o n E d ward of Windsor on 21 January 1327. Edward III was proclaimed K i n g o f E n gland on 25 January 1327, and crowned at Westminster Abbey on 1 F e b r u a ry 1327.

He was the four th s o n o f K ing Edward III of England, and the father of King Henry IV. B ec a u se o f Gaunt's royal origin, advantageous marriages, and some genero u s l a n d grants, he was one of the richest men of his era, and was an in f l u e ntial figure during the reigns of both his father and his nephew, R i c h a rd II.[2][3] As Duke of Lancaster, he is the founder of the royal H o u s e o f Lancaster, whose members would ascend the throne after his deat h . H i s b irthplace, Ghent in Flanders, then known in English as Gaunt, w a s t h e o rigin of his name. John's early career was spent in France and Spain fighting in the Hundr e d Y e a rs' War. He made an abortive attempt to enforce a claim to the Cr o w n o f C astile that came through his second wife, Constance of Castile, a n d f o r a t ime styled himself as King of Castile. When Edward the Black P r i n ce , Gaunt's elder brother and heir-apparent to the ageing Edward III , b e c a me incapacitated owing to poor health, Gaunt assumed control of m an y g o v ernment functions, and rose to become one of the most powerful p o li t i cal figures in England. He was faced with military difficulties ab r o a d a nd political divisions at home, and disagreements as to how to de a l w i t h these crises led to tensions between Gaunt, the English Parliam e n t , a nd the ruling class, making him an extremely unpopular figure for a t i m e . John of Gaunt had four children by his mistress (later to become his th i r d w i f e) Katherine Swynford, who were given the surname Beaufort: John , c r e a t ed Earl of Somerset in 1397; Henry, who became a bishop in 1398 a n d C a r d inal in 1427; Thomas, Duke of Exeter, who died without issue in 1 4 2 6 ; a n d Joan , whose second marriage to Ralph Neville, Earl of Westmor l a n d p r oduced nine children, including Cecily Neville, mother of Richar d I I I . |

Johannes Theodorus Polhemus, (1598-1676) who was the first member of the Polhemus family to settle in America, was born in 1598, probably at Boikirchen, a small community now vanished, but thought to be near the present Wolfstein in Rhenish, Bavaria. After serving several churches in Brazil for several years (administered by the Dutch). The Dutch administrations in Brazil, which succeeded that of Governor Maurice, were inefficient and corrupt. The Portuguese revolted and the Dutch finally capitulated January 25, 1654s they were given three months in which either to depart or to embrace the Roman Catholic religion and bacome Portuguese citizens. In April 1654 there was a fleet of sixteen Dutch ships in the harbor of Recif to evacuate the Dutch Protestants together with a small number of Dutch and Portuguese Jews. For some reason Domine Polhemus took a separate ship from the one on which his wife and children were quartered. Fifteen of these vessels arrived safely in Holland including the one bearing his wife and four children. If the sixteenth ship conveying the Domine had not met with a misadventure, there probably would never have been a Polhemus family in this country. The Dutch ship on which the Reverend Johannes Theodorus Polhemus left Brazil was captured by a Spanish privateer not far from Recif. He finally arrived in New Amsterdam and not in Holland in September 1654 on the French frigate St. Charles. After 'Domine Polhemus' arrival in America from Brazil, he went to Long Island to a village called Midwout. There were at that time three Dutch settlements on the western end of Long Island called Midwout, Amersfoort, and Breuckelens they later became the villages of Flatbush, Flatlands, and Brooklyn. There he built a church in Flatbush. This church continued in use for one hundred years and was served by Domine Polhemus until his death in 1676 at the age of seventy eight years.

He was one of the residents of Boston to whom land was granted at Mount Wollaston, which was afterwards the town of Braintree, now the city of Quincy. The record shows that he was granted twenty acres and that there were five in his family, indicating that he had three children, February 24, 1639. His homestead was located about two miles east of the railroad station of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad (formerly the Old Colony Railroad) at Quincy. It is the site of the present Fore River shipyards. In the early records the name is often spelled Poffer. | 1 |
1117 | I233 | Puffer | James E. | Abt 1624 | 24 Jul 1692 | 0 | James was baptized in Earl Shilton on 17 August 1625, recorded as "Jacobus Pougher fill[ius] Georgii." It is probable that he immigrated with his parents to New England, landing probably in Boston for it was on February 24, 1640 that his father was granted twenty acres of land at Mount Wollaston, afterwards called Braintree. He succeeded to his father's homestead in Braintree and lived there to the end of his life. His farm was at Ship Cove, now called Quincy Neck, and he also owned land in what is now the town of Randolph. Though he followed farming, he is also described as a boatman. |

He died February 21, 1663, in Brooklyn, New Netherland, at the age of 58. He married Catalyntje Jeronimus Trico (Cataline Tricault) on January 21, 1624, in the Walloon Church, Amsterdam, Netherlands. She was born in 1605 and died on September 11, 1689, around the age of 84. She was the daughter of Jeronimus Trico. They sailed to America January 25, 1624, on board the Eondracht, arriving in the spring of 1624. Holgate wrote in 1848 that Rapalje family tradition stated that he brought 1500 Pounds in currency with him. Joris Jansen Rapalje was a first settler at Fort Orange (now Albany), New Netherland. After three years at Fort Orange, Peter Minuet ordered all farmers in New Netherland to concentrate on Manhattan. Joris acquired a plot of ground at what is now the foot of Pearl Street, his property abutting the East wall of Fort Amsterdam at the present Battery. Shortly after his arrival there, he was followed by his two brothers Antonie Janssen and Willem Janssen. The descendants of these two brothers dropped the name Rapalje in favor of their middle name Jansen, while the descendants of their brother Joris retained the traditional family name of Rapalje. In 1626, the population of lower Manhattan was 270 white inhabitants. Joris remained there 22 years. |

Died 1669 or before in Gravesend, Kings Co., New York. Described as the first prostitute of New Amsterdam. "Manhattan's first and most famous prostitute." From Russel Shorto's "The Island at the Center of the World: The Epic Story of Dutch Manhattan atd the Forgotten Colony That Shaped America" (Vintage Books, NY: 2004): "There was a kind of duke and duchess of the era of New Amsterdam, who outdid their neighbors for sheer rabble-rousing. Back in Europe, Griet Reyniers had worked as a barmaid at the tavern of Pieter de Winter in Amsterdam. In fact, she practiced two professions at once—the mistress of the tavern once spotted her in a back room' "her petticoat upon her knees," sekually servicing a party of soldiers. It's impossible to say whether the young Wouter van Twiller wandered into her establishment one evening and became enamored of her. All we know is that when he set sail for Manhattan on de Zoutberg ("Salt Mountain"), Griet was on board, too, ready to seek her fortune in a new land. It was a hazardous crossing: the ship was nearly captured by "Turks," and then it turned the tables and took the prize of a Spanish bark whose hulls were crammed with sugar. Griet was unfazed by the goings-on, and plied her trade at sea- passengers noticed her pulling "the shirts of some of the sailors out of their breeches." Landing at Manhattan and finding it, so to speak, virgin territory, she set up shop. She took to walking the Strand, hiking her petticoats to display her wares for the sailors. If she had come as Van Twiller's mistress, it may have been as a result of his finally dismissing her that she was observed marching into the fort one day crying out, "I have long enough been the whore of the nobility. From now on I shall be the whore of the rabble!" |

At t h e d e a t h of Rudolph, duke of Burgundy, in 936 , Hugh was in possession o f n e a r l y all the region between the Loire and the Seine, corresponding t o t h e a n c ient Neustria, with the exception of the territory ceded to th e N o r m a ns in 911. He took a very active part in bringing Louis IV (d'Ou tr e m e r ) f rom England in 936, but in the same year Hugh married Hedwige , s i s t e r of the emperor Otto the Great, and soon quarrelled with Louis. Hugh even paid homage to Otto, and supported him in his struggle agains t L o u i s . When Louis fell into the hands of the Normans in 945, he was h an d e d o v er to Hugh, who released him in 946 only on condition that he s h o u l d s urrender the fortress of Laon.

He married Alice Cosford in 1597. All his children were baptized and/or buried in Watford. He brought his wife and family to Leiden, Holland, where he became a citizen of Leiden on 25 June 1618. His occupation in Leiden records was given as a camlet merchant. Camlet was a luxury fabric from Asia that was made of camel's hair or angora wool mixed with silk. On 1 April 1620, he sold his house on Barbarasteeg for 300 guilders, apparently in preparation for his voyage on the Mayflower. He came on the Mayflower with eldest son Joseph, leaving behind in Leiden his younger son John, daughters Elizabeth and Margaret, and wife Alice. Thomas Rogers died the first winter at Plymouth, leaving behind his 18-year old son Joseph. His wife and children that were left behind in Leiden are found in the 1622 poll tax of Leiden, and were termed "poor people" and "without means." Children Elizabeth and Margaret apparently came to New England later, but where they lived or whom they married remains unknown. Son John came to Plymouth about 1630, and there married Anna Churchman on 16 April 1639. |

An apprenticeship normally started at age f o u r t e en and ran for seven years. Thus at age twenty-one he would be fr e e t o m a r ry. Exactly when Robert Royce and his family came to New England is unknown . H o w e v er, he was an early settler at Stratford, Fairfield, Connecticut w h i c h w a s founded in 1639 as "the plantation at Pequonnocke", by the Rev e r e n d A dam Blakeman (pronounceed Blackman) and William Beardsley.

1151 | I45523 | Sales | Phoebe | 1626 | Dec 1666 | 0 | Phoebe Sales was born in 1626 in Suffolk, England and was christened 5/1/1626. The christening register reads: "1626/Phoebe Sales, daughter of John Sales." The christening event happened in the same church in which John Sales & Philip Soales were married on 8/11/1625 [Note the name is not recorded as Phillipa - Phillip in early England was not an uncommon name for a girl, when the widowed John Sales remarries in 8/1644 in a New Amsterdam church, John is listed as a widower of Philippa Zaals]. In April 1630 John Sales, wife Phillip, daughters Phoebe & Sarah sailed from Southampton England aboard "Talbott", 1 of 10 ships in the Winthrop Fleet bound for New England. When the ship arrived in Mass., only John Sales & daughter Phoebe were aboard. Phillip & Sarah, were two of the twelve passengers who had died & were buried at sea. John Sales & daughter Phoebe/Phebe were in Massachussetts Colony, NEW England from the fall of 1630, until 1637 when they removed to New Amsterdam, where they lived among & affiliated with the Dutch and assumed Dutch names. John Sales became Jan & the surname Sales with more than several alternate spellings as seen on Dutch records. Phoebe became known as Femmetje [the Dutch equivalent of Phoebe] & since the Dutch did not use surnames until England took control in 1664 -& in the instance of Phoebe "person identifiers" were used in which "s", "sen", "szen" were added to the father's given name & added to his child's given name. In this way, Phoebe Sales, daughter of John Sales became known in her adopted "Dutch" area & life as Femmetje Jans, meaning Femmetje, daughter of Jan. |

TN and that she married Jesse Albert Byrd in Maury Co. TN. The land which became Maury Co. was originally in Davidson Co. (Nashville). Isabelle also identified herself as being from Nashville. In 1805 Williamson Co. was carved out of Davidson Co. and Maury Co. out of Williamson in 1807. Her father was R.M. Saunders, (we now know Robert M. Saunders, Jr.) born in SC, or possibly NC territory later becoming Tennessee, and mother, Sophia Josephine Phillips was listed on most census records as born in Tennessee. One source, undocumented, states middle initial stands for MEADE. Another source state middle name is Marguerite. Isabella, herself, never wrote more than "M" in her Bible. Wallace Smith, in his book "Prodigal Sons" asserts that "Isabella was originally a McCullough (in fact her stepfather was McCullough) and her parents had come from the mountains of Tennessee." |

She gives her father's birthplace as North Carolina; other census data gives TN; since TN was formed from NC, Saunders could have been from both places without a move and both states would be correct birthplace depending on the date. |

1161 | I45321 | Schenck | Henry | 19 Jul 1743 | 8 Jan 1799 | 0 | Biography: Henry was a Major in the Quartermaster's Corps in the American Revolutionary War. During campaigns of the Army in New York State it was his responsibility to keep the Army in adequate supplies. His wife, Hannah Brett, was a granddaughter of Madam Brett, who inherited her father's share of the Rombout patent, covering a large section of Dutchess County, and who, upon her husband's early death, managed her many square miles herself. The Brett-Teller mansion which still stands in the heart of Beacon, New York, was built by her and later became the home of Major Henry and his large family. During the Revolution it became famed for its generous hospitality. Washington, Hamilton, Lafayette and other notables were entertained there. Also it became a storage station for supplies. Major Henry engaged actively in political as well as military affairs before, during and after the war. He was a signer of the Articles of Association and one of the Committee of Observation in July, 1775. He was one of the deputies from Dutchess County to the Provincial Congress in 1775, 1776 and 1777, and following the achievement of independence was a member of the State Assembly in 1791. In private life he was a successful farmer and miller.

1168 | I45315 | Schenck | Johannes Martin | 19 Sep 1656 | 0 | Johannes Schenk, founder of the line of 'Bushwick' Schencks Johannes Schenk came to America in 1683 from Holland. He was twenty-seven years old and already married to Maria Magdalena de Haes. They spent two years in New York, then in 1685 went to Esopus (now Kingston), New York. Later, from 1691 to 1694 Johannes Schenk appears as Town Clerk in the records of the town of Flatbush, L. I. (now a part of Brooklyn). In 1698 he returned to New York where he taught school until 1700 when he was again appointed Flatbush Town Clerk and also teacher in the village school there, positions which he held until 1711. There are extant many records of Church and Town, the latter in his own hand, which show him to have been a man of considerable prestige in the community. His position as teacher carried with it certain important duties in the church such as leader of the singing and lay reader. The association of the Schenck family with the Reformed Dutch Church of Flatbush, thus started by the first Johannes in 1700, has been continued by each succeeding generation of the family throughout the ensuing 250 years. |

There is no evidence he came to Plymouth in 1630 nor had any connection to the migrants from Leyden. "Richard Seer" is first seen in Plymouth Colony records in the tax list of 25 Mar 1633, when he was 44, in a list of 86 persons assessed 9 shillings in corn, at 6 shillings per bushel, upon one poll. He does not appear in the 1634 tax list or the 1633 list of freemen. He was in Marblehead (then part of Salem) in 1637, and in 1639 is in Yarmouth as one of its' founders.

She was brought before the court several times, either for neglecting to attend the services at the First Church in Salem, or for being present at a "Quaker Meeting." In 1662, she was excommunicated from the First Church in Salem for attending the assemblies of the Friends. She was evidently a woman with a strong character, and one who was not afraid to act and speak her convictions. We see evidence of this independence even after her removal to Nantucket. "For speaking very opprobriously concerning the imprisonment of peeter foulgier,' she was arrested but pardoned on being intimidated into repentance."
