Ken, Is the "OWENS" listed below the same as Owens Station, a small ommunity between Greenwood & Milford? Also, is the Queen Anne Railroad one hat originated in Queen Anne Co., MD? egards, ichelle Looking at a highway map, Owens is about halfway on a direct line from Greenwood to Ellendale. Logically, one would have to assume the railroad paralleled this route. This is from the Delaware Archives website: QUEEN ANNE’S RAILROAD In February 1895, the Delaware legislature authorized the Queen Anne’s Railroad, a Maryland corporation formed the previous year, to extend its lines across the state to Lewes. Their goal was to establish a direct link between Baltimore and the coast. The western terminus was at Queenstown, Maryland, with connections from there to Baltimore via steamship. The eastern terminus provided travelers with access to the Rehoboth resort via rail, and steamship connection with Cape May, New Jersey. This was the last major railroad built on the Delmarva peninsula.

Hello, Tax lists for years between 1801 and 1803 show a tax distinction between old and young men. Does anyone know at what age that distinction is made? Walt West

I am a descendant of the Deputy family and I have never heard of the railroad stop called Deputy. I have hit many brick walls in researching this family. I would be happy to share what information I have and would appreciate any that you might have. I know that some of the family migrated to Indiana and there is a town of that name in that state. My ancestor settled in Illinois and the name seems to have petered put there. There are many descendants of the Indiana clan. Would like to hear from you.

In this case, the name Apes Hole is more likely figurative, or rather a use of the words “ape” and “hole” as a 17th century citizen would do.  A “hole” - as in fishing hole - was a term apparently novel to the early American colonies, applied to a quiet cove or an inlet.  The Oxford English Dictionary records it as early as the 1620s, and it came into common use from New England to the Carolinas.  In that same period (and from the time of Chaucer) “ape” was a common term for a fool.   So this simply looks like an amusing and gently self-deprecating title John White gave to his survey.  “FOOLS COVE” is essentially what White was calling it.  No animals involved, except in the sense that “ape” in this meaning ultimately hailed back to the primates.  Still, this is just my informed guess made some years ago as a fairly reasonable explanation, when mulling such things as fanciful tract names. The name also belongs to the creek which runs north from there toward Crisfield, and does apply roughly to the neighborhood.  The tract is on the west side of the inlet forming the mouth of the creek into Pocomoke Bay. Finally, the tract is described in MD Patents (21:050 and 21:051) as having been surveyed for White on 17 Jul 1679 for 250 ac.  He soon assigned it to Edward Furlong, who was granted patent on 02 Dec 1679.   There is no further mention of Furlong in association with it.  It is not among Francis Jenkins’ (partial) list of properties taxed in 1685.  On 20 Sep 1698 a special warrant of resurvey for Edward Furlong’s escheat APES HOLE was granted to Thomas Jones, the tract seemingly having been long- abandoned.  It was resurveyed as 200 acres for Jones on 08 Oct 1698, and patented for him on 01 Nov 1698 (Patents CC #4:145, 146).   By Jones’ will (MD Wills 11:164, made in 1700 and proved in 1701, it fell to his son John (a minor).  John (who became a shipwright) eventually moved to Dorchester and sold it to John Sterling in 1734 (So Deeds AZ:158).

I believe this is the first mention I have seen on this site of an Owens. Does anyone have anything on a John Owens ca. 1704 - 1728. My ancestor first appeared in Pasquotank Precinct in 1728 when he bought "210 acres in Pasquotank Precinct on east side of Allegator River". I don't know where he came from but thought I would ask since there appear to have been Owens on the DELMARVA Peninsula.

Hi Barbara, My notes say Ape's Hole contained 250 Acres, on the South Side of the Annemesix River and on the North Side of Pocomoke Bay, originally patented by John White and assigned to Edward Furlong. July 7, 1679. I agree that the name Ape's Hole is unusual and sounds like a nice place to visit. I hope in the next couple of years to visit Delmarva in person with my wife and have the time to actually sit down and look and the original records rather than online images or abstracts.

Mike, what was the date on patenting Apes Hole? Truthfully,as a child, I loved going there because of the sense of peacefulness, wondered once in a while why it was named that...then lately, I've really been curious. My Dad used to shuck oysters there and told many tales (some of his folk stories are in the Library of Congress as well as retold in Folk Lore Books) about Apes Hole .  But even he never knew why it was named that.  One McCready/Nelson researcher said that all of "Crisfield" was known originally as Apes Hole which I had never heard before. I don't know if this name is still being used to designate a "stretch" of an area close to Apes Hole, but there is still a " Jonestown ". I always wondered about that.  Perhaps it was from this same Jones family? Close to Jonestown area was " Freedom town " and that name's origin, I assumed, was because many slaves got their "freedom" from slave owners in the area. And I can't resist asking you what is a "pied cow"?

From: jmh963@hotmail.comTo: ftdan2@sbcglobal.netSubject: Mary Shockley or Duncan, marrying Archibald Smith [1736-1799]Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 22:44:34 +0000 Freda, Thanks for your insight into the Clarke family as well as Cox, and related families. I have carefully went over my surviving notes and other evidence I have accumulated over the years regarding the Smith family and while initially, I had thought that Mary Duncan, was the wife of our Archibald Smith, I have found in the 1783 Tax List of Worcestor County, that William Smith appears to have been the husband of Mary Duncan. I have to agree that Mary Shockley was more than likely and actually I am quite certain that she was the wife of our Archibald Smith& our ancestor. I would put her date of birth at around 1739/43 rather than the Ca. 1751 I have seen posted on the internet. She was the daughter of John Shockley II who I would presume was born about 1715/20 & Elizabeth Covington born Ca. 1719/25 daughter of Thomas Covington who was more than likely the Thomas Covington born in 1687, of Thomas Covington Sr. & Susannah Brayfield.

I found in researching Leonard Jones, that a person named Edward Furlong, who in Somerset County, Md had donated a '"pied cow" to his wife Joan Jones, later patented a tract called Ape's Hole.

Yes, thank you Richard I know where all these areas are. My reference about the land John bought was a direct quote. This deed is dated 1729 which was about the same time Tyrrell was formed. Tyrrell Co. was formed in 1729 from Chowan, Bertie, Currituck and Pasquotank. I imagine there were a lot of deeds that did not reflect the name of this new county. If you know of any Owens in the area before John Owens arrived there ca. 1729, I would appreciate that information. I thought I successfully connected all of the Owens to John but, of course, there is always the possibility there was an earlier one. I really don't have any idea where John came from but I know several of the early northeast NC lines originated in the DELMARVA area, so I thought it was worth a shot. Any help or leads is very much appreciated.

Hi. Jim! What's this "snowed in" mean? In Bed? In the Barn? In your Snow Plow? I've been here in Florida so long, I have almost forgotten what the term means! Chuck

Jean The area you have mentioned for your John Owens is in NE North Carolina. Pasquotank Co is (currently) on the north side of the Albemarle Sound. The Alligator River flows through Tyrrell Co and into the south side of the Albemarle Sound. I live in this section of NC and know that the Owens family name is widespread and ancient in these parts. I do not know if there is a connection between the Owens families in MD and NC. But there was a good deal of migration between MD and NC at that time because a distant (many)g-uncle Hugh Tingle, Jr. did move here in the 1740's.

That would be wonderful. Thank you. John married (unknown when) Anne. I have no idea what her maiden name was. The names of their sons do not offer any help. My Owens family did not use surnames as first names. His sons were Zachariah, Thomas, John and Adam. They had one daughter, Nancy. All of his children were born in Tyrrell Co., NC after 1730.

Hi Jean, I find this very funny, I just got off the phone with my Aunt that is 94 and we were talking about my Grandmothers family, the Owens, from this area. I will see what I have as one of my cousin did a lot of research one the Owens. I am just now going though the info I have just gotten. I will see what I find.

A "pied cow" is Shepard's Pie. I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. Actually, I'm told by my wife, the English major, that "pied" means splotchy, so it referred to the color or appearance of the cow.
