Anne -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: Penns & Bradshaws Date: Sat, 21 Nov 1998 13:04:09 -0000 From: "William Lees" <[email protected]> To: "Mark Lawson" <[email protected]> Mark here's some information that came originally from [email protected] (Jack Plumley). He doesn't cite the source of the information on the children of John Bradshaw: if you are able to establish this from him or from others I'd be interested to know. Hope this is of interest William Descendants of William Penne Generation No. 1 1. WILLIAM2 PENNE (JOHN 1) was born 1520. He married ??. Notes for WILLIAM PENNE: In his will dated 5/1/1590, and proved 1592, he called himself "Willm Penne of Minetie in the County of Glouc. yeoman" To the children of his deceased son 2. William Penn, who he named as Giles, William, Maria, Sara, Susanna Penn, he bequeasted (sic) (sic) twenty pounds apiece when they came of age, or at time of their marriage. To Margaret Penn widow of his son William Penn, he left an annuity of ten pounds so long as she "keeps herself sole and chaste and unmarried." If she married again or led an unchaste life, she was to receive twenty pounds "a good bed with all manner of Furniture theretofore belonging and so she ( was then ) to depart. As heir and sole executor he named his grandson George Penn, eldest son of his deceased son William; he was to receive after debts and legacies were paid, the residue of his estate, "movable and unmovable." As overseers he named Robert George of Cirencester, Richard Lawrence of Withington, Glos., and Francis Bradshaw of Wokley, Wilts., with power to see that all his testamentary instructions were carried out. To his daughter Ann Green and her daughter Elizabeth Greene he gave to each a heifer. To Richard Bidle he gave one cow, to his daughter Katherine Bidle a heifer, to William Mallibroke a yearling heifer, and to Alice Thermor his "old white mare." Witnesses to the will included Francis Bradshaw, William Taylor, and Richard Munden. Child of WILLIAM PENNE and ?? is: 2. i. WILLIAN3 PENN, b. Abt. 1544; d. 1588. Generation No. 2 2. WILLIAN3 PENN (WILLIAM 2 PENNE, JOHN 1) was born Abt. 1544, and died 1588. He married MARGARET RASTALL 1570. Notes for WILLIAM PENN: William Penn, son of William Penne of Minety and grandson of John Penne of the same place, was apprenticed as a law clerk to the counselor-at-law, Christopher George of Bawnton, near Cirencester, eventually becoming his chief clerk. he was married by 1570 to Margaret Rastall daughter of John Rastall Alderman of Gloucester and wife Anne George a sister to the above Christopher. William and Margaret Penn apparently settled in Malmesbury four or five miles southwest of Minety. In the Malmesbury Subsidy Roll of 1570-71, 13 Elizabeth I, William was taxed six shillings on his movable goods and was taxed there again ten years later. According to Brigadier Hogg, he was not listed in the Subsidy Rolls for 1586-87, but in the Lay Subsidy Roll for Malmesbury borough in the Public Record Office is the entry for " William Penn goods iij li--iij d, as sited by Mr. Lea (note 7) It is apparent however, that William Penn was deceased by 1588, and that in 1590 his widow and six children were living with the Elder William Penne. Note 7 PMHB, XIV, 291. This last entry is not cited by Brigadier Hogg. Child of WILLIAM PENN and MARGARET RASTALL is: 3. i. CAPTAIN GILES4 PENN, b. Abt. 1573; d. 1656. Generation No. 3 3. CAPTAIN GILES4 PENN (WILLIAN 3, WILLIAM 2 PENNE, JOHN 1) was born Abt. 1573, and died 1656. He married JOAN GILBEART. Notes for CAPTAIN GILES PENN: Giles Penn son of William Penn, the law clerk of Malmesbury, and his wife Margaret Rastall, was born perhaps about 1573. Brigadier Hogg suggests that he may have been named for Giles, Lord Chandos who , in 1573, became lord of the manor of Minety. He was apprenticed as "Egidius Penne, filius Willi nup. de Myntie... defunct," to the linen draper, John Horte of Bristol, and Juliane his wife, on 1 May 1593, a year after his grandfather's will was offered for probate. It was as "Gylles Penn draper," that he was admitted to the "Liberties" of Bristol on 3 April 1600 "because he was Prentice of Mr John Horte, Alderman, Deceased" (note 11) The following 5 November 1600 he married at St. Mary Redcliffe, Bristol, Joan Gilbeart (Gilbert), of a family originally from Yorkshire. >From draper Giles Penn progressed to Merchant with his younger brother William and by 1618 had been overtaken with financial losses. In 1630 records show that he was traveling between the Babary Coast, importing and selling assorted goods. Styled Captain Penn in 1631. he was in London in 1636, and the following year when he was appointed resident consul for Charles I at Sallee ( Sale Morocco), he was described as " a man well experienced in the language and custom of said country." He was deceased, probably overseas, by 1656, when a new consul was appointed at Sallee. (note 12) Note 11 The apprenticeship and citizenship records sited in the text above are from NEHGR, 54, 326-327 Note 12 For a more extended account of Giles Penn see Hogg, Further Light, 27-31.

One James Bradshaw and brother John was a first cousin to William Penn. James came to Pennsylvania to help William Penn and start a new life in this new land. Margaret has a stone in Blackjack Cem in Carroll Co., Ark. She is not buried there, her descendants placed a stone there in her memory, because she is buried on what is now private property and the owners would not allow at stone to be placed there. I do not know when this was done, or by whom. In the picture I have the stone looks rather new. Notes for ISAAC PLUMLEY: Isaac was believed to have been born in Shenandoah Co., VA. (Previously Dunmore Co., VA.) as his father William was a land holder in the county.

They traveled by wagon pulled by a yolk of oxen thru Nashville Tenn. then to the Ohio River at Ford's ferry to Chester on the Mississippi River and then on to Fayetteville Ark. >From there they journeyed on to War Eagle, 4 miles northwest of Huntville in Washington Co., Ark. Which was later revised to be in Madison Co., Ark. Arriving on May 29 1832. Joel moved from his home near Huntville in 1837 to the community of Berryville Ark. He built his home near a large ever flowing spring to what is now the corner of Main and College streets. In 1839 they moved to the community of Blackjack where they resided until 1849.
