I can relate to this post, since my phone cable (and neighbors') was damaged, and I am only online at work for a while... Please contact Roy at: [email protected] Vince: My Maternal Granddad is H. Roy Uptegrove. His Dad is Isaac Uptegrove. They lived and died around Simcoe and Waterford, Ontario, Canada. H. Roy wed Grace W. Hobson and they had four children; Hugh, Harold, Evelyn(my Mom) and Marion Uptegrove. I sent my information to someone and then my modem went kapooy. The information I have picked up from the group is all new to me and my living cousins. If I can help fill some gaps I would be pleased to do so. Regards--Roy O'Grady

Lea, I believe that Timothy b.6 Jun 1729 must be the son of Benjamin Sr. & Hannah Towne. He certainly is not the son of Benjamin Jr. who was b. 10 Jan 1721.

I am a new member, descended from OpDenGraeff and Addams but have very little info onthe families (I would like more!). I also am rel. to Castor and have quite obit of info. Pat McKay

This is from a person I have known, and who contacted me today. It happened to mention the name CADWALADER, so I thought I would post it, just in case it was of use: ***** I did find out that ... Jacob SPERRY(d 1830 Philly) bought the brick house that the Catholic Historical Society. See below: Department of Interior The headquarters of the American Catholic Historical Society is a patrician four-story building on South Fourth Street, Philadelphia. Erected in 1810, its design is in the austere style of the Federalist period. The building is listed by the U.S. Department of Interior in the National Register of Historic places and designated Historic by the Philadelphia Historical Commission. A Most Proper Location In 1812 a home builder, Jacob Vogdes, acquired all the land on the east side of Fourth Street, south of Locust, for $1 and a mortgage from two Quaker families, the Brintons and Burds, to construct a row of huge homes on lots 25 feet wide, 172 feet deep, 4300 square feet in all. These would be the homes of the growing group of prosperous merchants, ship builders and bankers on nearby Second Street, then the main commercial artery of the city. Since public transportation was unknown, these businessmen sought residences near their establishments. In those days, as today, it was a most "proper" neighborhood. Directly across the street was Old St. Mary's Church, which was erected in 1763 and in 1808 served as the first Cathedral for the Diocese of Philadelphia. **The War of 1812 was in progress when the first owner, a merchant named Jacob Sperry, moved in and occupied it for the next 14 years. The building had three owners until, in 1881, it was bought by the Cadwaladers, the last family to live there. *****

Shirley Lazear sent information on my Taylor line some time ago/ I need to contact her again but her e mail address of [email protected] does not work for me; any help, please? Thanks, Lea Buzby

You can contact Rod at: [email protected] In response to your roll call, unfortunately my personal family records were destroyed by fire, but my family tree is found in the book entitled "The Blakers of Sussex" copy of which can be found in the U S Library of Congress. The author's name is something like Redmond or Redfern, but in any event the title is catalogued. This book and other references indicate that the Blakers were present in Sussex at the time of 1066 and the Norman invasion. In the Doomsday Book, the name shows as "Blakr". Their name thence became de Blacker and de Blaker until about the thirteenth century when it reverted to Blaker. In Normandy the name Blaker became de Blacquiere and de Blacquere, in both cases being a phonetic spelling of the French pronunciation of the name. I am without knowledge of the name in Germany. More detailed information can of course be found in the English texts on Heraldry; when all coats of arms were ordered verified throughout the realm; in the Visitations of the Shires, two knights were sent to each shire to verify the coats of arms in usage; this would be in the year 1215, if I recall. That of one of the Blakers was deemed to have been held "since time immemorial", and expression used to cover one or two hundred years. The first coat of arms issued to a Blaker consisted of three Moors heads on a background of ermine; the identical coat of arms was issued in France to someone whose name I would have to look up, but he was involved in the founding of the Knights Templar. One can reasonably conclude therefore that the Sussex Blakers were part of the First Crusade, to Jerusalem which is why and how they acquired a Coat of Arms. (For recognition in battle). In England, the authorities believe the origin of the name is old english, from some variety of "bleaker" meaning "to bleach" or to whiten. However a far more likely understanding is that the name is Viking of origin. In 942 the Vikings, including amongst them several people known as Blaker, landed in Dublin, which city they controlled for a year, and where the Blakers in particular established a property in heir name. The following year the Celts or Irish successfully threw out the invaders, who crossed the Irish sea, landing in Worcestershire and from there, Sussex. In what is today Norway and north of Oslo, there is a parish called Blaker, where the headstones go back to the 11th century, if I recall. The name Blaker in this context can be understood to mean "meadow" or "lea" or "open field". The English equivalent, had the name been translated, would have been the modern names of Meadows, Leigh's, or Fields. I am sure that your group is aware that the Mormons have done a complete survey of the births and deaths of England, and of course many of the names your are researching can be found there. (The Salt Lake repository). Viking history itself indicates that over the course of about four centuries they shot off in all directions to an amazing degree - through Germany and the Baltics to Russia; down the coasts of France, England and Ireland; to North Africa and Sardinia; and of course to At one stage I did a review of the telephone books of the English-speaking world and found altogether about 3000 names; but that of course would exclude such non-English speaking countries as Germany and or Russia. I may be repeating everything you already know. If so, sorry about that.
