It was mentioned in the Domesday Book as "Land of the King" or "Kings' Tun". The old church, houses, gardens, hedges, stone walls, cows, crops and grass, still reflect a harmony of nature and man. The twelfth century stone church of Saint Michael and All Saints, stands in the village on a slight elevation. The square stone tower of the Norman style, in the mode of a fortress, brings to mind the bloodied early history of the Welsh borders. Old gravestones are incorporated into the floor of the church, some of them bearing the names of Preece and Wathen forebears. Judith Preece is buried in the churchyard. A brilliant stained glass window gives a more modern touch to the ancient building. *** I noticed some US citizens are searching the surname WATHEN. It may be of interest to you that there is a cluster of Wathens in the UK. It seems the Wathen families, many of whom were Hand Silk Weavers were quite settled until the early 1800s. When automisation came along their trade was devastated and forced whole families to seek a living else where or starve. Many lived through the 1700s in the charming village of Worrel Under Edge, Gloucestershire, England.

Notes for S Henry Hudson English navigator, who explored the NE coast of North America, making claims for both the English and the Dutch. Nothing is known about his early life. He sailed in search of a passage across the Pole (1607), reached Novaya Zemlya (1608), entered the river which was named after him (1609), and (1610) travelled through the strait and bay which now bear his name. He resolved to winter there, but food ran short, the men mutinied, and he and eight others were cast adrift to die. Henry Hudson's Final Voyage, financed by the British East India Company, sailed from England in 1610 and wintered in Hudson Bay. In the summer of 1611 the crew mutinied and set Henry Hudson, his son John, and seven other men adrift in a small boat without food or water. They were never seen again. In 1614 Katherine Hudson, widow of the explorer, asked the East India Company for employment for her youngest son Richard. Richard sailed on the ship Samaritan and continued in the service of the company, making trips as far away as Japan and India. He died in 1648 leaving several children, some of whom emigrated to America. Llewelyn Powy, author of Henry Hudson (Harper, 1928), named three sons: Oliver, John & Richard. States that beyond this all is conjecture. Oliver was already married in 1609; John was probably around 16 when he died in 1611. Richard was probably born around 1600. Katherine Hudson, the widow of Henry Hudson, entered the East India trade and traveled to India herself, making remunerative deals in indigo and other commodities. She died in 1624, leaving her property to her sons Oliver & Richard. Her will provided that "in case the said Richard should not return from the East and India, that then her son Oliver should have all." Ann Susannah Hudson Wathen born around 1660, could NOT have been the daughter of Richard Hudson, since he died in 1648; and she was probably not the daughter of Oliver, who had been married more than 50 yrs in 1660. This leave the possibility that she was the granddaughter of either Richard or Oliver ? Records of early Virginia and Maryland show many with the name Hudson. Skordas, in 'Early Settlers of MD, show 28 Hudsons. One which was..

I've never found her birth record, baptismal records - etc. - in Barbadoes records (not that they're all in print, I suppose. Someday I'm going to have to go there, I guess -- but staying off the beach long enough to really research may be tough! It would be logical that Henry Hudson was the grandson of THE Henry - probably through Richard - but possibly through John - no one said he died in 1611. ******* Children of JOHN2ATHEN(JAMES1USANNAHBRAYNEAbt. 1671 in Maryland.

And a special thank you for Capt. William Wathen, we're researching him also. I'm aware of John sailing on the "Francis and Mary" from Bristol, his indenture to Hugh Thomas, etc. I believe I'm descended from John, John and Ignatius then down the line. Given that Hugh Thomas was from Llanmadoc, Glarmorgan, Wales, I am hoping that John may have been from that area as well. Two reasons for my thinking.....the geographical location of Hugh's birthplace and the fact that Glamorgan stayed very heavily Roman Catholic in spite of efforts by the Church of England to make it otherwise. My question is, where did John come from? Wales, England or where? The other geography I'm looking at is that Llanmadoc is very near Swansea at the mouth of the Bristol Channel. Taking shots in the dark for now, but hoping to find more on John. bill ----- Original Message ----- W W) was born 1694 in St Mary's Co., Md, and died March 1760 in Charles County, MD.

Hi Randy, In the "Descendants of James Wathen Generation No. 11", it's true that James had five sons, one of whom was named John. However, after recently receiving a copy of a will of John Wathen, son of James (same family), it appears this John was not our guy. The will came from a contact I have in heref., Brian Harris. The John, who was one of five sons of James and Margaret Wathen of Allensmore, never left home. His will was probated in 1726 in Heref, and witnessed. Will be glad to send a transcribed copy to you if you wish. It was copied by Carol Collins, a Wathen genealogist in South Bend, Indiana. The question Carol and I had about John was that he would have had to return to England to execute his mother's will in 1705, the same year that John died. John, along with brother William, were named executors of her estate. With the recent revelation that the John we believed was the son of James of Allensmore, was indeed not, it put us in the position of starting over from square one. I'll send you Carol's transcription, with credit going to Brian Harris of Heref. If there is a family crest for WATHEN, I doubt if it pertains to our branch of the family. I don't see how a person of "means", if John indeed was, would have a trade as a carpenter and come to the settlement of Maryland as an indentured servant. I need to see the book, "The Bristol Records of Servants and Apprentices, etc., to find out more. However, there is a site devoted to indentured servants from the same period, 1654-1688, in which John is mentioned, but nothing as to his background, etc. It gets curioser and curioser.
