Don, As far as the Jarboe question. There were only 3 Jarboe Males likely that was of age during that era. Henry, I - John, II - Peter. the latter no surviving issue, Henry list no Elizabeth in his 1698 will The only & first Elizabeth Jarboe on record that we know of - was the daughter of John Jarboe, II and Sarah Joy, of which fits the time line of your post.

James Gough's wife Elizabeth was born ca 1682 [aged 28 on 28 Sept 1711], and had been married to (1) George Medcalfe (d. 1702) and (2) Samuel Davis (liv. 1707) previous to her marriage to Gough. Elizabeth Jarboe (d/o John Jarboe) was unmarried at the time of her father's will (1704), and our Elizabeth was already a widow by this time. Our Elizabeth had no known children by her first two husbands, both of whom owned the tract "Rocky Point" in Newtown Hundred which had been patented in 1652 to Richard Nevitt. John Nevitt was Richard's son and senior heir, and it appears that he gave that tract to his daughter's first two husbands as dower lands. After they died without issue he repossessed it and sold it on 11 May 1715 to William Maria Farthing and James Wheatley. After two marriages Elizabeth would have acquired enough property that her father would not have to provide a dowery for her. A possible explanation for James Gough owning part of the Jarboe tract is that he was a son of Mary Tattershall Jarboe Gough who had a partial claim to the Jarboe tract as part of her widow's dower. Also, in 1708 James Gough was also named as a trustee for the children of his half-brother Henry Jarboe. Another possibility for the appearance of Jarboe land in the Gough family is that John Nevitt's other daughter, Ann, was the wife of Peter Jarboe and after his 1698 death served as his executrix. She and her newborn child died later that year and her father, John Nevitt of Newtown, assumed administration and the estate remained in his possession. Perhaps he gifted part of this land to his daughter Elizabeth's family. Respected historian and writer, Dr Lois Green Carr, also lists James Gough's wife as Elizabeth (Nevitt), widow of George Medcalfe, in her notes at the Archives of Maryland. In spite of the difficulty of establishing the identities of John Nevitt and Richard Nevitt, I do feel confident that James Gough's wife was most likely Elizabeth Nevitt.

Don, Elizabeth JARBOE was the daughter of John Jarboe and Sarah JOY. She married 3 times 1st to George MEDCALF, 2nd to Samuel DAVIS, and third to James GOUGH. Here is a letter from Linda Reno Hi Mike, I've been "round the horn" on this since yesterday and here's where I am at this point: I think she was actually Elizabeth Jarboe, dau. of John Jarboe, Jr. (d. 1705). She married first, George Medcalf between 1698 and 1702; second, Samuel Davis between 1702-1707; and third, James Gough by 1711. The will of John Jarboe, Jr. named his daughter Elizabeth, but he didn't give a surname, so it begs the question as to whether she was married or single. What got me back on this theory is the will of Henry Jarboe, Elizabeth's uncle and guardian. If you'll note, Henry named James Gough and Elizabeth Davis as two of the trustees of his estate during the minority of his children. In my opinion, this is Elizabeth (Jarboe) Medcalf/Davis. I wouldn't doubt that Elizabeth wasn't already a widow at this point and it wasn't long after this will that she married James Gough. Will of Henry Jarboe, SMC, 3/18/1708-4/18/1709.

If Elizabeth Jarboe indeed married James Gould, I - wouldn't she be marring her step-uncle. Is that not correct ?

That is the only entry found Paul's Marsh. xxxxxxxxx Todd Whiteside puts things in perspective, he writes........... James Gough's wife Elizabeth was born ca 1682 [aged 28 on 28 Sept 1711], and had been married to (1) George Medcalfe (d. 1702) and (2) Samuel Davis (liv. 1707) previous to her marriage to Gough. Elizabeth Jarboe (d/o John Jarboe) was unmarried at the time of her father's will (1704), and our Elizabeth was already a widow by this time. Our Elizabeth had no known children by her first two husbands, both of whom owned the tract "Rocky Point" in Newtown Hundred which had been patented in 1652 to Richard Nevitt. John Nevitt was Richard's son and senior heir, and it appears that he gave that tract to his daughter's first two husbands as dower lands. After they died without issue he repossessed it and sold it on 11 May 1715 to William Maria Farthing and James Wheatley. After two marriages Elizabeth would have acquired enough property that her father would not have to provide a dowery for her. A possible explanation for James Gough owning part of the Jarboe tract is that he was a son of Mary Tattershall Jarboe Gough who had a partial claim to the Jarboe tract as part of her widow's dower. Also, in 1708 James Gough was also named as a trustee for the children of his half-brother Henry Jarboe. Another possibility for the appearance of Jarboe land in the Gough family is that John Nevitt's other daughter, Ann, was the wife of Peter Jarboe and after his 1698 death served as his executrix. She and her newborn child died later that year and her father, John Nevitt of Newtown, assumed administration and the estate remained in his possession. Perhaps he gifted part of this land to his daughter Elizabeth's family. Respected historian and writer, Dr Lois Green Carr, also lists James Gough's wife as Elizabeth (Nevitt), widow of George Medcalfe, in her notes at the Archives of Maryland. In spite of the difficulty of establishing the identities of John Nevitt and Richard Nevitt, I do feel confident that James Gough's wife was most likely Elizabeth Nevitt.

Does anyone have a firm idea of who her parents were? One possibility I am considering is John Jarboe Jr. (b. abt 1659) and Sarah Joy d/o Peter Joy and Martha Goldson. If they were born abt 1659 they would be of marriageable age by 1679 making a 1683 birth a possibility. Any other suggestions are welcome. 2. What was her husband's birth date? I have 2 James Goughs who could have been her husband. One was born abt 1670. I have no parents for him. The other was born abt 1690. This one the s/o Stephen Gough and Claire Baldwin. Can anyone tell me whch is correct, or, if both are in error, who is the correct James Gough? Thanks in advance for your help and input.

John Jarboe's will specifically states that Eliza was not married at the time he wrote his will in 1704. Therefore, it does not make sense to me that this Eliza(beth) Jarboe was the wife of George Medcalfe (who according to info below died in 1702). If so, she should have been named by her father as Eliza Medcalfe, or Eliza Davis if she had already remarried Samuel Davis by 1704 (possible, but unknown). Since this is a direct line for me (James and Elizabeth Gough), I am really trying to sort through what we know and what we don't know. Mary Kraeszig Even more snippets from Todd Whitesides and Mike Gough's exchanges on Genforum a few years back (Todd's statements/arguments): ----------------------------------------------------------- James Gough's wife Elizabeth was born ca 1682 [aged 28 on 28 Sept 1711 (date of a deposition--see below)], and had been married to (1) George Medcalfe (d. 1702) and (2) Samuel Davis (liv. 1707) previous to her marriage to Gough. Elizabeth Jarboe (d/o John Jarboe) was unmarried at the time of her father's will (1704), and our Elizabeth [who later married James Gough] was already a widow by this time. Our Elizabeth had no known children by her first two husbands, both of whom owned the tract "Rocky Point" in Newtown Hundred which had been patented in 1652 to Richard Nevitt.

Also, in 1708 James Gough was also named as a trustee for the children of his half-brother Henry Jarboe.

Respected historian and writer, Dr Lois Green Carr, also lists James Gough's wife as Elizabeth (Nevitt), widow of George Medcalfe, in her notes at the Archives of Maryland. In spite of the difficulty of establishing the identities of John Nevitt and Richard Nevitt, I do feel confident that James Gough's wife was most likely Elizabeth Nevitt. If you want proof of James Gough's wife Elizabeth being married before him, see Maryland Chancery Court Records Liber 2, folio 751. In 1711 the boundary of Richard Vowles's dwelling plantation on St Clement's Bay was disputed. On 28 Sept 1711 two depositions were taken to help resolve this. John Nevitt, aged 70, describes the boundary of Vowles's "Redbudd Thickett" being next to "Rocky Point," both tracts had formerly belonged to his father Richard Nevitt according to this deposition. On the same day, Elizabeth Gough, aged 28, said she had formerly been the wife of George Medcalfe who possessed "Rocky Point," and gave a deposition regarding the land's boundary. The 1707 Rent Rolls show the owner of "Rocky Point" to be Samuel Davis, who had married George Medcalfe's widow, and that he had a life estate in the tract. The 1715 Rent Rolls show John Nevell (sic) Sr. to be possessor of the tract, and later that year he sold it as I mentioned in a previous post. If you want proof of debunking the misconception that James's wife Elizabeth was Elizabeth, daughter of John Jarboe, just see John Jarboe's 1704 will [Wills Liber 3, pt.2, folio 505]. She was unmarried at that time. Our Elizabeth's first husband George Medcalfe's estate was administered in 1702, so she was already a widow at the time of Jarboe's will. I think the idea that James Gough was married to an Elizabeth Jarboe needs to be let go. If he was married to a granddaughter of Lt-Col John Jarboe named Elizabeth then he would have been married to his niece of the half blood. Even with a clerical dispensation I don't think this would have been done. Elizabeth (nee Nevitt) was married to James Gough by 1711, and an Elizabeth was named as his executrix in 1725. At this point there is no reason to doubt they are the same person. Elizabeth was a savvy woman, and did not abide by her husband's will. She claimed her right to the widow's third of the estate. She probably felt entitled to this as she had brought Nevitt land into this family by marriage.
