List, I've had a bad day today research wise, it is a drag when someone takes your findings and makes it theirs with no mention of you any where in sight.

I had replied to Mary off the list, and in that reply, suggested that she probably had great stories of growing up in Southern Maryland and possibly of many of our families, too. Can she share those on the list, or should I ask her to email me off the list with any stories she might be willing to share?

I knew that the widow of Stephen Sr didn't marry Samuel Berry. And I know that she had more children than Stephen Jr. Everything out on this family is pretty much made up by others. Ann the wife of Stephen Sr could be a Cole, due to the will of Giles Cole will, but then again she may not be. She cannot have two maiden names, as it looks like Cawood people want to attach to her. When I cannot prove that she is "definitely" a Cole Terrett, I do not make her a Cole. I know that is how you work also. Guesses are set as an aside. I researched this family some time ago and the article Ken mentioned is the first I've heard of on this family, so I was wondering about the sources it uses. I dropped Ken a line requesting a copy of the article. We will see if he comes thru. But today I guess it is really bothering me that others do not do any research, but sure want what you've done.

Thanks for your update on Dr Edelen's wife - my children usually keep me up to date on the deaths of people we knew in Charles County but guess I had forgotten. I moved out of Waldorf in 1971 but we have children, nieces and nephews and family members there and we made many trips back to MD. Yes, Dr Edelen's family is the Bryantown family.

Since my previous query on ELEANOR STONE who married GEORGE HARDY giving her birthdate as 6 Jul 1764 it appears that she is the daughter of JOSEPH STONE in his will with wife ELIZABETH unknown, the will not dated from my record which names ELEANOR with the same birthdate. These records were at Upper Chappel at Broad Creek in Prince George's County. Since my first query I have found other STONE's at Upper Chappel at Broad Creek which consists of the following : (1) DAVID STONE ; wife SUSANNAH ; Children : ELEANOR born 21 Aug 1772 (2) JAMES STONE ; wife MARTHA Dau : ANNE born 31 Mar 1774. (3) JOSEPH STONE ; wife ELIZABETH Dau : MARY CALVERT born 9 Mar 1774 The original will of JOSEPH STONE named wife ELIZABETH unknown and....... Children : i. ANN born 25 Aug 1761 ii. THOMAS bapt 16 Sep 1766 iii. HENRY born 19 Oct 1768 iv. ELEANOR born 6 Jul 1764 ... this is my cousins grandparent who married GEORGE HARDY. All records are at Upper Chappel at Broad Creek in Prince George's County. Looking for the parennts of JOSEPH STONE father of the above family. Marianne Dillow

Shirley, the dates wouldn't work.

I don't know if these two different lines are connected or not. I think they probably are. I do know that Dr. Edelen's wife died in 1990. And, his Edelen family was from the line in Bryantown.

My Hardy cousin has a George Hardy died before 1823 married ElLEANOR STONE. She was born 6 Jul 1764 and died prior to 1823. ELEANOR STONE appears to be the one in this record as the birthdate is the same : JOSEPH STONE will in Prince George's County (I don't have a date) Wife ; Elizabeth Children ; Ann, Thomas, Henry and ELEANOR STONE born 6 Jul 1764 Upper Chappel at Broad Creek. I know there is a much earlier Thomas Stone and wondered if this Joseph Stone is of that family. I saw the Stone postings which brought this to mind. Any info would be appreciated. Thank You, Marianne Dillow

Thanks Marge, I knew it was something to that effect. So in fact by suspending the Writ of Habeas Corpus Lincoln basically gave himself dictatorial powers and took away the freedoms and rights of duly elected efficials, their constituents, and subjugated the government and people of the Sovereign State of Maryland. In that old song "Maryland, My Maryland" that the Maryland boys in the C.S. armies sung during the War for Southern Independence must have been talking of that when it says..."the depot's heel is upon thy....!". All that nonsense that he and the Federal government were doing was one of the reasons that we (the South) suceeded from the Union. Below is a link to some very interesting information from the Southern point of view at the time. It is four speaches given by four people in post war years who lived through those times, explaining the whys and how comes of those terrible times from the Southern point of view at the time. Very interesting in my opinion and should be a prerequisite to anyone studying the history of the Civil War era, sucession, its causes, etc.. It is interesting to hear from the horses' mouths so to speak as far as each side's point of view goes. The title of the speaches and the orators/authors are; Causes of the Civil War From "Reminiscences Of The Civil War", (Chapter I) By John B. Gordon, Maj. Gen. CSA Origin of the War Written by Robert Mercer Taliaferro Hunter, of Virginia around 1876. Slavery and States Rights A speech by "Fight'n" Joe Wheeler in 1894. The Confederate Cause and Its Defenders An Address delivered by Judge George L. Christian in 1898. The Vindication of The South An Address delivered by B. B. Mumford in 1889. To read them go to: http://www.civilwarhome.com/confederatecauses.htm Here is a little piece of Charles County history: My grandmother, Eloise Gilmore Berry (Mrs. David Middleton Edelen) used to tell me of how her area of Maryland was pro Southern, how Union occupation forces camped in her grandfather's yard while the officers stayed inside, etc.. It was on one of their many sorties into Southern Maryland to keep an eye on locals, Southern soldiers sneaking home to Maryland, etc.. She even showed me a letter from a Union officer thanking them (her grandfather Thomas B. Berry) for their hospitality and apologizing for any trouble they might have been. A nice letter actually. She also used to tell me of a story in the family of a Lt. "Tip" Edelen that was engaged to one of her aunts during the Civil War, how he and a cousin or something, Jesse Edelen, also from the Piscataway area, had gone looking for horses and a Yankee patrol had chased them in a running fight until cornering them somewhere. The Union officer of course gave them every oppurtunity to surrender and pointed out that they were trapped and surrounded. Jesse, just 16, came on out and surrendered. According to the rest of the family tale, "Tip" Edelen then drew his sword and said, "I'll never surrender to a damned Yankee!" and charged the Union cavalrymen. Naturally he was shot down. But the Union officer, supposedly from that area and knowing Tip's family and that of his fiance, personally took Tip's personal possetions back to Charles Co Maryland and gave them to his fiance. My grandmother said that Tip's watch and tobacco pouch he had had on him when he died were among the effects and had been in her family ever since, but some years ago had dissappeared. There is nothing worse than a thief in the family!! There is a great book called "Marylanders in the Confederacy". If I remember correctly it states that more than 35,000 Marylanders fought for the South, some in Maryland units but many others in other units, many in the C.S. Navy, etc.. My own gr gr grandfather Dr. Alexius Llewellyn Middleton served as an Asst Surgeon in the 2nd Texas Infantry in the Trans-Miss Dept of the Confederacy. How he wound up down there is not known, but he was probably sent where he was needed by the CS War Dept.. There was a Thomas B. Berry who served as a Corporal in Gray's Virginia Cavalry. I have often wondered if that was Thomas Baker Berry, Jr., the son of my gr. gr. grandfather Judge Thomas Baker Berry? Oh well, I am way off topic so forgive me y'all for rambling on and boring you with family tales.

Hello cousin Mary, Good to hear from you. I have an excerpt from the book, "Charles County Gentry" pertaining to the Edelens, and yes you are right, they all are related, even though some distantly. But further enough back you can see where they all tie in. The excerpt even mentions some that migrated to Kentucky, and to some where called Washington Bottom, etc.. I figure any Edelen in Amerca is kin, even though very distantly in some cases. From what I have been told and read we all descend from Richard Edelen who came over in the mid 1600s. I believe even those who spell their names Edelin and Edlen are related. In that excerpt it explains how one branch, the descendents of James Nobles Edelen, came to spell their name "Edelin". Very interesting. I have also heard that some African Americans who descend from those who had associations with Edelens back in slavery days picked up the name, whether former slaves or free men, spell their name Edelin also. But perhaps they were associated with the White Edelens who spelled their name Edelin. Who knows. I will get in touch with you soon Mary and we will all go out to eat or something. I apologize for being such a stranger lately. And give your husband our regards! I never told you this I don't think but it has always been sort of special to me to know that you, a Maryland Middleton relative, lives so near me. Till later, David Middleton Edelen II Millbrook, Al.

I have been very interested in the messages/comments concerning the Sunnyside Farm and the Edelen family. When I grew up in Waldorf, Charles County, my mother always told me there were two separate Edelen family lines although they may have been distantly related in the very early years. The Edelen family who lived in Bryantown area were mainly Bowlings, Boarmans, and Edelens, for example. Dr Edward Edelen whose widow still lives in Port Tobacco was a friend of mine as he was on the board of directors of the savings and loan assn where I worked when my children were small. He also sewed up one of my son's heads with about 30 stitches after he fell down some steps - The other Edelen family lived in the Prince George's county area, Clinton, Piscataway, and the Berry Road area where David Middleton Edelen's family lived. These are the Middleton relatives - not the Edelens of Bryantown area - I visited these Edelen members often when I visited my sister who lived in Piscataway. I am now 82 years young and memories do fade but if there are others who have more definite information I will be very happy to be updated with new information.

I have only portions of record in a book entitled " Deed and Will Abstracts of Stafford County Virginia 1699-1709 ; pp. 219-221 : It states " ANNE by the Grace of God of england scotland france and Ireland Queen Defender of the Faith etc. To all to whom these present Letters shalll come Greeting. Know ye that among the Pleas recorded before our Justices for Charles County in our Court held for Port Tobacco in the same county the Eleventh day of November in the 13th year of the Reign of our late Predecessor KING WILLIAM the THIRD of gracious Memory Anno Domini 1703. Before MAJR. WILLIAM DENT CAPTAIN WILIAM BARTON, MR. JOSEPH MANNING, MR. THOMAS TANZY, MR. BENJAMIN HALE, MR. ROBERT YEATS, MR. RICHARD HARRISON, MR. PHILIP BRISTOE, MR. WILLIAM HERBERT, CAPTAIN HENRY HARDY, LIEUT. COLLO. JAMES SMALLWOOD, Justices thereuunto appointed and authorized. " I don't have the rest of the article but it appears to be concerning "goods and Tobacco." Anyway, I thought I would share this with the List. Stafford County was one of the earlier counties formed in Virginia before Fairfax in 1742 and then Loudoun formed from Fairfax in 1757 where my Hardy line was living 1757-1792, which stems from the Hardy lines in Charles and Prince George's counties. There is a ROBERT HANSON in Stafford County, Va. in 1705. Marianne Dillow
