    1. Re: [LUDDINGTON] Check out Kent Historical Society saying no to Sybilmovie money
    2. M. Inoue
    3. Hi Elaine, I sure wish I could help you with that. That is one slippery bunch. Joseph, who I am thinking might be Comforts brother (event though he was not on the will) appeared in some census records with the Comfort you want to research. Joseph is buried in Pawling Cemetery and that is the town that Comfort was on the Census for . Joseph's grave is in good condition finding Comfort's might be a big clue. If you can find out where he resided, you may check cemeteries there. He is not in Pawing Cemetery to my knowledge. I am thinking he lived in Fishkill at some point. There are old cemeteries there. cgiordano@pawling.org That is the e-mail address for the Pawling town Clerk she helped me look up records by e-mail her name is Cathy Giordano and she also told me to look for records at 845-485-3445. which is Adriance Library in Poughkeepsie. Poughkeepsie is run down and I have check the will there but I hear the had a new town historian and his name escapes me, he was the old town historian from no less then Pawling. If you could reach him, it might be worth a chat. Also I am not sure what help you'll get at the family history center. I have never been, it was closed every time I went. The research section was not open the last time I checked. But for your sake I hope it is open now. I also went to the Brewster archives but I found nothing on Comfort there. So the most I got on him are those Census records. I have to go out now but if you have no access to look them up let me know and I'll check it when I come in for you. My best advise is if someone does not have an answer for you ask them who might, that is how I found out about the Brewster archives, I would have never known they existed. (I also check records at the Carmel Surrogate's court and nothing there.

Steeton hath for some ages been the seat of the ancient and honourable family of Fairfax. It was, by the Conquerors survey, in the possession of Osbern de Arches. Sir John Chamont, knight, was owner of the greatest part of the lands here, in the reign of Edward III. and had issue two daughters --Joan, who was a nun, and Margaret, married to William, Lord Mowbray. In this manor was anciently five carucates and a half of land; whereof Richard de Steeton, held four and a half of Walter de Falconbridge; who held the same of the heirs of Brus, and they of the Barons Mowbray; who held them of the King, in capite, at the annual rent of seven-pence halfpenny. Another carucate was of the fee of Percy, as of his baronry of Spofford; whereof, the Abbot of St. Mary's at York, held the one half, and the Prioress of Appleton the other. It became, afterwards, the seat, of Sir Guy Fairfax, knight; one of the judges of the King's Bench, in the times of Edward IV. and Henry VII. --Drake.

    3. http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.asp?compid=43305 I know I sent this article a short while ago but in searching for Thomas I wonder if this may be his family? In the article it mentions a Lane family that might be the Lane family that Thomas went to Virginia with. I know another far reach. Thats half the fun of it :) I sent the above link again incase someone wants to Saluth. Sandy I wonder if thei Laxton is associated with your Thomas Lodge Anne Luddington family? Paul have you ever placed this Lodington/Luddington family? I'm glad your wife let you off for good behaviour, hee hee Barb their son Thomas Holte sold the whole manor to Nicholas and John Lodington or Luddington. (fn. 56) After the death of Nicholas, his wife Joan married Sir William Laxton, who held the manor jointly with his wife, and dying in 1556 left it by his will to Nicholas Luddington, his stepson, after the death of his wife Joan. (fn. 57) In the following year Sir William's heir Joan, wife of Thomas Wanton, daughter of his brother, John Laxton, confirmed the manor to Nicholas Luddington, (fn. 58) and in 1570 Nicholas assured to his mother Joan her life interest in the estate. (fn. 59) Nicholas sold the manor in 1583 to William Kindesley or Kingsley, From: 'Parishes: Sarratt', A History of the County of Hertford: volume 2 (1908), pp. 438-43.

    3. http://home.columbus.rr.com/ancienttextiles/voyages1.htm This account above is also long but in better English. I'm sorry I actually sen the other very very long article I only meant to send the link. I can't get into Ancestry.com but supposedly Thomas immigrated to Roanoke Virginia. If he was a Oxford College student before this and a preacher in Lincoln England after the voyage and connected with Brasenose.I wonder if he didn't actually stay in America but went back and told stories and William heard them and wanted to see for himself :) fanciful thinking on my part. Maybe he was a grandson of Thomas, hee hee. Barb -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Sir Richard Grenvill, and Master Ralph Lane] The II. The Generall victualed for 8. dayes, with a selected company went to the maine, and discovered the Townes of Pomeiok, Aquascogoc, Secotan, and the great Lake called Paquipe. At Aquascogoc the Indians stole a siluer Cup, wherefore burnt the Towne and spoyled their corne, so returned to our fleete at Tocokon. Whence we wayed for Hatorask, where we rested and Granganimeo, King Wingina's brother with Manteo came abord our Admirall, the Admirall went for Weapomeiok, and Master Iohn Arundell for England. Our Generall in his way home tooke a rich loaden ship of 300. tunns, with which he ariued at Plimouth the 18. of September. 1585. These were left vnder the command of Master Ralph Layne to inhabite the Country but they returned within a yeare. Philip Amidas Admirall. Master Thomas Heryot. Master Acton. Master Stafford. Master Thomas Luddington. Master Maruyn. Captaine Vaghan. Master Kendall. Master Gardiner. Master Predeox. Master Rogers. Master Haruy. Master Snelling. Master Antony Russe. Master Allen. Master Michaell Pollison. Master Thomas Bockner. Master Iames mason. Master Dauid Salter. Master Iames Skinner. With diuers others to the number of 108. Touching the most remarkeable things of the Country and our proceeding from the 17 of August 1585. till the 18. of Iune 1586. we made Roanoack our habitation. The vtmost of our discoucry Southward was Secotan as we esteemed 80. leagues from Roanoacke. The passage from thence was thought a broad sound within the maine, being without kenning of land, yet full of flats and shoulds that our Pinnasse could not passe, and we had but one boat with 4. ores, that would carry but 15 men with their prouisions for 7. dayes: so that because the winter ap-proached we left those discoueries till a stronger supply. _________________________________________________________________ Mortgage refinance is hot 1) Rates near 30-yr lows 2) Good credit get intro-rate 4.625%* https://www2.nextag.com/goto.jsp?product=100000035&url=%2fst.jsp&tm=y&search=mortgage_text_links_88_h2a5f&s=4056&p=5117&disc=y&vers=743
