Hello, I am new to the list. Is there anyone on the list researching the Walston families of early Somerset Co. and Worchester Co., MD? Thomas Walston married Ruth London 16 April 1677 in Somerset Co., MD. They had 4 known children: 1. son London Walston; no record of any marriage 2. daughter Files 3. son Boaz b. ca 1700 4. son Joy; I have found no record of any marriage for this Joy Walston, but it is possible that he did marry. Boaz Walston b. ca 1700 married Catherine Curtis and had children who were named in his 1770 will which was proved in Worchester Co., MD. It is believed that after his wife Ruth died, Thomas Walston married #2 Mary (perhaps maiden name Davis) and had 2 sons:Thomas Walston and William Walston (who would be half-brothers to London, Files, Boaz, and Joy. If you have any information on the Walston families with roots in Somerset Co. and Worchester Co., MD, please contact me as I am trying to obtain as much info as I can to establish these Walston lines. Many thanks, Helen Graves Walston List Administrator
