    3. There appear to be emails being sent to LDR members that are a possible scam. I suspect one members computer has been hacked and there are being sent without his knowledge. The same thing happened to my wife but the emails appear to be sent to John Lyon, Mike Hitch, myself and possibly others. The member who has the email address which is an aol.com address is probably unaware of this. I am not going to forward the actual email beacuse it probably has a computer virus but be aware and alert to this happening.

    1. [LDR] family name of BESWICK
    2. JoAnn Glenn-Lewin
    3. A little on the north side for this list, but thought I'd ask for the collective wisdom of this group anyway. Have recently found copies of original death certificates of my 3GrGM, Mary Rebecca GRACE JONES and her sister Maria E. GRACE DARBY. Both have their mother's maiden name listed as Mary BESWICK (b. @ 1807). She obviously married once before marrying my 3GrGF because she was Mary CARTY on marriage bond. Known to have lived in Frederica at least most of her life and buried there. I have found a few BESWICK families, but none seem to have my Mary.......

    1. Re: [LDR] The family name of Denaho
    2. There were Somerset Donohos from the 17th century, who spread far and wide. All sorts of spelling variations. A reasonable chance, anyway, that those further up the Shore could have come from this crowd. John

    2. Yes, these (at least a dozen, maybe more) appear to have been coming in for a week or more, almost all routed into spam here. They have an attachment, which I'm not inclined to open.... As Mike said, the distribution list includes several recognizable LDR addresses, as well as others. Offhand, I don't recognize the AOL sender's name, but maybe Shari does, as maybe an LDR lister, and might contact the party...

    1. [LDR] The family name of Denaho
    2. Jim Blackwell
    3. I might suggest that the surname is "Donoho". I am not exactly sure when the Donoho family actually came to the Peninsula or how many... but in Kent Co. there was a mention of a Michael Donoho in a will in 1698. In Sussex there was a mention of a (or another) Michael Donohoe in 1717. And in W. Wright Robinson's A History of Seaford, he noted that in 1869 a C. C. Donoho moved to Seaford from Wicomico Co. and founded the Donoho Packing Company that initially packed oysters for shipment on the railroad to the north and later expanded to fruits and vegetables. After searching my Sussex and Kent Co. Will books and the Delaware Public Archives Probate web site, and the Tombstone Books of Sussex Co, I only found Donoho, Donohoe Donaho and Donahoe. So, my guess, that took no more than 5 minutes to check this information and could certainly be wrong, would be that the spelling in the will or transcription was incorrect or just a clerk hearing a name and sounding out a spelling based on what he heard which of course was a common practice and a main reason why there were so many spellings for the same family surname. I once found a relative, Kinzey Collins, listed on a website of transcribed census of 1860 or 1870 as King Collins! That was one I always liked! And my wife's maiden name "McCauley" has been spelled at least a dozen different ways in documents that we have transcribed since the progenitor arrived in the late 1600s including "McAldney" and the winner: "McCobaloy".

    3. Pat; The Reverend George Ames is in charge of the Church. Rev. Ames lives in Cambridge. He should be able to help with the records that you are looking for if they are still in existence. Another avenue you may try is Barrats Chapel and museum. They have quite a few of the old records from Churches here on the peninsula. This is the link to their web site http://www.barrattschapel.org/. I hope this helps.

    3. Does anyone on the list know if the Wesley Chapel, at Wesley Church Road and Andrews Road, has any records available? I noticed it was named as a Heritage Award winner recently at an event in Cambridge, so apparently it remains an active congregation. I am interested in whatever christening, marriage or death records, or even any membership/attendance type records that might exist, especially for the 1800s, perhaps into the early 1900s. If anyone has information regarding someone to contact there affiliated with that church, it would be appreciated. Many thanks. Pat

    1. [LDR] The family name of Denaho
    2. Alan Marvel
    3. I am doing research on the Marvel's of Maryland and Delaware. On a recent trip to Fort Wayne, Indiana I came across several "Will" books. The one in question is Sussex County, Delaware Wills, Will Book Vol. #11 - 1856-1859. Among the various wills is the following for Sally Marvel of Dagsborough Hundred -Folio 507 6/6/1855 12/16/1859. Sally is the wife of Adam Marvel. In the will, Sally gives all her land to her son David Marvel. She gives others in her will the sum of $5.00. Among those listed are several grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The last name of 4 of them is Denaho. I cannot find any information on Denaho marriages in the Marvel family. I did find information on the Purnel Ennis family. Does anyone have any information on the Denaho connection? The children listed in the will are: Carherine Denaho, Catherine Denaho, Margaret J. Denaho, Maranda Denaho, Elizabeth J. Johnson, and Louisa H. Short. Thank you for any assistance in tracking down this information Alan Marvel [email protected]

    2. Joni Rabena
    3. Jackie, In Baker's Draft IV Smiths, Lanes, Truitts of Worcester County, Maryland, he has some statements about Archibald Smith. I don't know if they will help you, but here they are: 1729: Archibald Smith, Merchant Lewes - Isabella probated December 4, 1729. Mentioned Relatives in Ireland, Executor James Smith, Cousin, Sussex County 1736: Arch Smith born to George Smith at St. Stephens, Wicomico. (Sarah & Mary were his sisters) 1739: Archibald Smith born to William & Elizabeth (Children of Wm & Eliz: Arch, Elijah, Matilda, Thomas) 1748: Captain Henry Smith 3700A in eight parcels, Archibald Smith 150A in two parcels, 100A "Painter Den", George Smith 200A, and Thomas Smith 175A. Archibald Smith (1729) (179) - Mary--Ester Arch was living in Hancock City, Georgia, then LawrenceCounty S.C. *John Smith - In the 1733 tax records of Baltimore 100, a John Smith was registered. We think this was the John Smith married to Sarah Morris, daugthter of William and Sarah Morris. *Arch Smith, Jr. *Joshua Smith *James Smith - Nelly James Smith sold land to the Cox family *John Smith 1793: Archibald Smith 1793: Archibald Smith Arch Smith On June 8, 1824, Henry Smith and Fanny Lane applied for a Worcester County marriage license. In 1825, when Henry was only 19, he was selected as a Trustee of the Mt. Zion Methodist Church. He was a lawyer, a landowner, and a school teacher. I assume this to be an indication of his father's influence at the time. In 1826, John Smith died and mentioned a large family. They were Henry, Archibald, John, Thomas, Moranda, Moses, Ann, Lotty, and Joshua Smith. Fanny Henry Smith (1838-1925) was born to Henry and Fanny Lane in 1838. Other children were James T. Smith (1835), Henry M. Smith (1841), Anna Scott (1832), Sarah A. (Nock), 1827), Hetty A. Smith (1849). A Robert Pierce (of Lewistown in Sussex) was in possession of land owned by Edward Smith, and we must assume that he was a brother to the wife of Edward Smith or a stepson of Edward Smith. Robert willed lot number 12 in Snow Hill to Benjamin Schoolfield in 1717. In 1724, Robert willed his Worcester property to Archibald Smith of Loewistown in Sussex; Archibald willed this property to James Smith in 1729. Not too many Archibald Smiths there.

    3. Hi, Jackie, Good questions because right now all I can tell you is that the Smiths I am looking for came from England. One William Smith mentioned was most likely the son of Sir Thomas Smith, Govenor of Jamestown. It mentions both the Primrose and the High Hope saling from London. Of course, that doesn't mean the men who sailed were from England as many of the Irish went to England to go to America. How on earth do you figure all of this out?! In the next while I will go through all the Smith names again, and if I can or can't find anything on an Archibald Smith or any of his relatives, I will let you know.

    3. In regards to Smiths who came from England. My Archibald Smith, who died, leaving a Will, he died 27 Nov 1729, Lewes, Sussex Co, DE, appears to have come to the colonies from North Ireland. Are there researchers working with Smiths from North Ireland? His sister Mary (she spelled it Marey) Smith by 1729, was the wife of Theophilus Simonton. Theophilus and Mary had 6 children. The locations that are mentioned in Archibald Smith's Will are: the Glebe in the Parish of Orney, in the Barony of Strabane, in the Kingdom of Ireland. In the Will, is mentioned land lying on Longbridge branch in the Parish of Orney, land near the Green Branch where on Samuel Samples dwells. Here in the colonies, Archibald Smith left house lots with the Town of Lewes; in Somerset Co MD, he mentions Begrove (??Belgrove, Bengrove) left to him by his "Uncle Robert Perrie"; land called Timber Hill; he gave to his sister Mary and husband Theophilus, the tract of land of 300 acres formerly James Barr's. Names mentioned in Will of Archibald Smith, his wife was Isabella ?__; his sister in Ireland was Rachel Curry; his brother Robert Smith and his daughters Anne Magdalen and Mary, in Ireland; his "cousins" James Smith and Adam Smith of the Parish in Ireland mentioned in above paragraph; cousin James Smith who lived with Archibald Smith in Lewes; his "cousin" Anne Simonton (was she the wife of Theophilus Simonton II, son of Mary Smith and Theophilus Simonton?, is there a connection to the Frame family?)
