I'm looking specifically for any information related to the Bryans in southern Caroline County. At the least, I'm hoping the Bible has information on Celia Frances Bryan who married first Levin Cheezum and then Caleb Bowdle. Also, her parents were Robert L Bryan and Catherine Andrews according to her death certificate. Her brother Charles Alfred Bryan is my ancestor.

I believe this to contain information about families living near Preston / Bethlehem in Caroline County. Does anyone have a copy or transcription of the contents they could send me?

Hi, I have a William DEAN, b. 3 Feb 1916. Is he related to you? Could you give some dates to the DEANs you mentioned below? Happy hunting, Helen (DCHS) I am looking for any information on my Great-Grandfather, William Henry Dean, going by the name Henry. He lived in the Fork District, with his second wife, Anna Francis Cheezum. Together they have 11 children, but I only have the names of a few, Levin W., Maud M., Norman Thomas, Bertha, Dollie E., Elmer, William Elwood (my grandfather), and Roy Luther. Annie (from his first marriage, may have been one more) And Alonzo Cheezum, who was Anna's from before they were married. Any help that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated Thank you Janet

William married a Laura Elizabeth Taylor born May 28 1907 in VA. Daughter of Berry and Nancy ?? Taylor. Her mother Nancy Taylor married again to a ?? Barker Laura Elizabeth Taylor first married a James Matt Hoskins from Pineville Bell Co KY. They had 7 children. After James died Laura married William Bowling they had a daughter Sheila Gail Bowling May 2 1950 in Tetterville a small town in Harlan Co Kentucky. Laura was older than William and I don't know how much older. William may have had the nickname "Red". They were not married long and divorced when the child was about 8 months old. It is thought that William moved to Baltimore MD after the divorce. William tried to contact the child through the help of a man named John Middleton who had one leg. They called him "Peg Leg." Any info on any of the above names would be appreciated. Thanks, Sharon

Hi list, In the past, I have always asked, at the cemetery office, who pays for the perpetual care or for the upkeep of the graves. This helps you find other relatives, (mostly ones still living). Of course I would ask who purchase the lot & who now owns it. Now, I know to ask for affidavits, too! :) I sent to Woodlawn Cemetery, in the Bronx, for records. When I received the info I received something I never thought of pertaining to the owners of cemetery lots -- affidavits. The affidavits show who the cemetery lots were handed down to through the family -- giving the person's name(s) & relationships. Interesting! With genealogy you learn something new all the time. :) Happy hunting, Helen (DCGS)

I have copies of their obits from the Denton Journal, published in Denton, Caroline Co., MD. I can send them to you if you send me your e-mail address. I did also find them in the 1900 and 1920 census for MD living in Greensboro. In the 1900 census, it states that they had 15 children with 4 living - although only 3 were living at home - Roy P age 19, Gilbert age 11 and Hiram V age 5. It shows everybody but Hiram as being born in DE - Hiram was born in MD. Hope this info helps.

Helen , here is what I found in The Narratives of Early Maryland - Marcus is actually on page 316 there is some additional info for that section of the book. Narratives of Early Maryland 1633-1684 {page 314} *section title* Journal of the Dutch Embassy to Maryland, by Augustine Herrman, 1659 <*Journal kept by Augustine Herrman during his Embassy from the Right Honorable the Director-General, Petrus Stuyvesant and the Supreme Council of New Netherland, to the Hon. Governor-General and Council of Maryland, touching the pretensions set up by Colonel Nathaniel Utie to the South river.*> {begins}September 30, Tuesday. Set out on our journey from New Amstel about noon, accompanied by Resolved Waldron and our attached soldiers and guides, and after traveling about an hour, arrived at a small creek which comes from Jagersland. <snip> Oct. 1, Wednesday .<shortened> continued on their way south by west , crossed over more creeks. the land rising somewhat. <branches of the South River> 9am came to a stream the Indians said flowed into the <begin page 315> Bay of Virginia. - -- about five leagues from New Amstel. This stream translates to Hare Creek, and the whole of this point is so named .<shortened> Then proceeded s/w and thru woods without path. ........followed creek along to where tide comes up and found boat . ..... embarked and dismissed our four guides but Sander Poeyer, with his Indian accompanied us. .......... boat taking on water , etc etc. mended boat with old linen//// in that way we came with the same tide a good league and a half down Elk River , and found ourselves at its east branch / stopped for awhile /<shortened> October 2, Thursday. Having paddled down Elk River almost the whole of the night, came about 8 o'clock to Sassafracx River, where we stopped during that tide at *blank in original* on the plantation of one Mr. Jan Turner. Here we found Abraham the Finn, a soldier who had run away from Christina and also a Dutch woman , whom he, the Jaegar(*Hunter) , brought hither. We offered them the General's pardon, in case they would return to New Amstel within six months, and should they then be unwilling to stay there, they would be at liberty to go to the Manhattans. The woman accepted these conditions, having three months more to serve , when she would return. But the soldier raised many objections. We prevailed, however, so far on him, that he made us a pair of new oars. <begin page 316> We set Sander Poyer on shore here to obtain information, but we could not learn anything, as the only residents there were some Swedes and Finns, who had run away in the time of Governor Prins.<*Johan Printz, governor of New Sweden from 1642 to 1653>. Having thus had a little rest and the tide being favorable, we prosecuted our journey; but after we had pushed off from the shore, the aforesaid Abraham with one Marcus, a Finn, came to our side in a canoe, and would not let us pass, as they claimed the boat, and , notwithstanding we assured them that they should have the boat on our return, they forcibly held on to us, and this Marcus drew a pocket-pistol and threatened to fire if we would not stop . They had, besides, to snaphances; we finally got rid of them with a great deal ado. On leaving the river , we heard heavy volley firing on Colonel Utie's island , which we presumed must have proceeded from fifty or sixty men; it was mingles with music. This lasted until night, so that we conjectured they were making ready to go to the South River...................... / the journal runs to page 333 there doesn't seem to be anything else about Marcus save for the above/- I added the beginning so you would know (maybe!) where they were talking about / at the very end of his report - he adds that they (Herrman's traveling group) are accused ("the slander which some people seek to attach to us") of exciting the Indians to massacre the English at Accomacq.(?) / Hope this helps. ida williams macken "If you can't get rid of the skeleton in your closet, you'd best teach it to dance." --George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) ----- Original Message ----- From: HMWEBBER@aol.com To: MDCAROLI-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, November 02, 2002 11:46 AM Subject: [MDCAROLI] Narratives of Early Maryland Hi list, Does anyone one have access to Narratives of Early Maryland, 1633-1684, ed.
