jack, where do you get the dates on Thomas below.? Birthdate looks like guesswork maybe? I agree that this Thomas is probably the son of John who would be the son of the immigrant, probably William, but why Talbot Co MD. I haven't seen docs to support that. And the John who died ca 1775 had a wife Anne accoeding to estate docs, not Jane. According to land sale records, John the son of Thomas and Eleanor is the one who had the wife Jane.

Lou Ann, If you will notice, the dates have a small 'c' in front of them. This is the abbreviation for circa. Back when I first started doing genealogy, and did not known better, I failed to record my sources. I think the Talbot Co. came from the probate papers for William, that can not now be found. John, the father of JBL, was born say 1690 and died 1766-1780. This is the John who was married to an Anne. John, the son of Thomas and Eleanor, was born ca 1710 and died 1775. This is the john who was married to Jane. John's estate was probated by Samuel Hanson, his largest creditor.
