Hi, It's been a while... I have been looking at the surname GREEN(A)WAY to see if it fits in with my FITZGERALD line. Now the name GREENWAY (I believe this is likely the correct spelling) is not unknown in early Philadelphia! Here is a quote from Watson: William Penn did not embark with his first colonists, but he sent out his cousin, captain William Markham, as his first deputy governor, to supply his place, and also to make needful buildings and preparations for the reception of the founder when he should arrive. To this end the finer parts of the frame work required for the construction of "Penn's Cottage" in Laetitia Court, and for "Pennsbury Palace", were freighted from England, together with Penn's workmen, (called "servants", in the parlance of that day), to set them up. The founder set sail from England in August, 1682, with Captain Greenway, in the ship Welcome, of 300 tons: --- a propitious name, and peculiarly so to those previously arrived colonists who were anxiously waiting his arrival. The passage was good, and the ship well filled with additional passengers, mostly Friends. But having had the misfortune to get the small pox on board, it proved fatal to nearly one third of the original hundred ! What a calamity in the outset ! Poor adventurers ! --- how these evils must have depressed their spirits and embittered their voyage ! What a spectacle, to see such numbers of their endeared relatives and companions in peril cast daily into the deep ! The recitals of this voyage were dwelt upon by the aged, and listened to by the young, in many succeeding years. They arrived first at New Castle on the 27th of October, 1682, --- a day hereafter devoted to commemorative festivals, by those who venerate the founder and his primitive associates. Here the founder was hailed with acclamations by the Swedes and Dutch then there. He forthwith made a call of the people at the Court-house, to address them on the business of his government. The ship, with the passengers, proceeded further up the river to the general rendezvous or settlement. If you have any knowledge of the surname, please contact me. Thanks, Vince Summers
