You've let this go awfully long, I'm afraid, for some of the answers you might find, via Archives and Records wouldn't arrive before the 11th.

Hello Quaker Cox researchers Last December when we were snowed in, I began some online research on the Quaker Thomas Cox, Citizen and Vintner, of London, England, (1642-1712). I have posted the results on my RootsWeb page: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~coxwhipple Also included is information from my 1989 book, _A Cox Family History from Thomas Cox, 1694-1762 of Gloucestershire, England,_ about two other Thomas Coxes, also Quakers, who were in early Pennsylvania. I found this information long ago when researching my Thomas Cox who mar. Sarah Buzby. Thomas Cox (abt 1694-abt 1762) mar. Sarah Buzby (my ancestor in Chester Co.) Thomas Cox, (abt 1689) cooper, mar.

For Chester County and Cecil County USGENWEB archives, a biographical sketch of Charles Sumner Passmore.  He was the son of Ellis Pusey and Mary Eliza (Lincoln) Passmore.  G randparents were John Wardle and Deborah (Brown) Passmore and John  and Francina K. (Reynolds) Lincoln.  Great-grandparents included Ellis Pusey and Ruth (Moore) Passmore and Samuel and Elizabeth (Brown) Brown.  Great-great grandparents included John a nd Phebe (Pusey) Passmore  and Andrew and Ruth (Birdsall) Pusey.  Great-great-great grandparents included George and Margaret (Strode) Passmore and Joshua and Mary (Lewis) Pusey From "Progressive Men of The State of Montana, A. W. Bowen & Co., Engravers and Publishers, Chicago, IL, 1902, pp. 790-1 "CHARLES SUMNER PASSMORE - In his origin, his family history, the extent and variety of his work at different places and the substantial business results he has achieved, Charles Sumner Passmore, of Butte, presents to the biographer a theme replete with interest.  He was born in Cecil county, Md., on July 11, 1858, a son of Ellis Pusey and Mary E. (Lincoln) Passmore, natives of Chester county, Pa., of good old Quaker stock, whose children have a birthright in the old William Penn church, which Mr. Passmore jealously retains.  His father was a prosperous dairy farmer in Maryland for many years, but after the death of his wife at Rising Sun in that state in 1889, he retired from business and is now living at Westchester (sic), Pa.  The Passmores came originally from Nor- mandy in the triumphal expedition of William the Conqueror, and settled in Berkshire, England, whence they emigrated to America in 1717 and have been here, as they were in France and England, people of consequence.  The maternal grandmother of Mr. Passmore is an aunt of Hon. Wayne MacVeagh, United State attorney-general under President Garfield, and one of his brothers is vice- president of the Union League Club of Philadelphia, an organization of power and influence in local politics.  He is also manager for I. M. Parr & Sons, the heaviest grain shippers in the city, having ascended to this position from a service bringing the meager salary of two dollars per week. Mr. Passmore was reared on his father's farm and received his education from private instructors, the public schools and the Friends' Academy at Rising Sun.  After finishing the course at that institution, he taught public schools to earn money to pay for a course at the Millersville (Pa.) Normal School.  In 1880 he secured a position in Philadelphia in a wholesale cracker house, leav- ing this soon after for a better one at the Marine Exchange.   He next went to New Jersey and took charge of extensive improvements at what is now Lake Como, a fine coast town and summer resort, then only a rugged and undeveloped possi- bility.  He laid out graded streets, arranged for sewerage, etc., superintend- ing about thirty-five men.  After a year's labor at Lake Como he removed to Fargo, N. D., in 1883, and was here joined by Walter Brown, a former school- mate, and at Page, about fifty-four miles distant from Fargo, on a branch of the Great Northern Railroad they bought lots, erected buildings, engaged in merchandising, and operated with great success for four years.  During this time Mr. Passmore met the lady who is now his wife, and after their marriage he sold his interests to his partner.  He arrived at Page with less than $100 and left with more than $4,500.  Returning east he bought an interest in a hardware and roofing business at Salem, Ohio, where his brother John was living.  He remained there two years and a half, sold out and came to Montana, locating in Butte in September, 1889.  Here he purchased the interest of S. V. Kemper in the real estate firm of Kemper & Jeffries, the firm becoming Passmore & Jeffries and seven months later he bought out Mr. Jeffries.  From this time excepting short periods of partnership, he has conducted the business alone as Passmore & Co.  In this business he has been very successful, but before engaging in it he had reverses.  He arrived in Butte with only $10 in money and borrowed $100 to make his first payment on the business. But the opportunities were excellent.  He reached Butte just after a disastrous fire had destroyed a large part of the city, and by close attention to his work, giving it fully seventeen hours a day for several years, he reaped a golden harvest and firmly established himself on solid ground.  He believed in the future of Butte and invested every available dollar he had in real estate, and his present fiscal condition is unanswerable proof of his wisdom. In addition to dealing in real estate and making loans, Mr. Passmore does an extensive architectural business, employing accomplished architects as his assistants.  One of these, George E. Snell, of considerable local eminence, has been with him seven years.  Mr. Passmore also reaps handsome returns from a good fidelity insurance business.  He represents the American Bonding and Trust Company, and the Maryland Casualty Company, both of Baltimore, Md., and two of the largest and strongest companies in the country, which carry every feature of the liability and surety business.  He also represents the Patent Title and Guaranty Company, of New York, the only organization in the United States which guarantees on patents.  He also inaugurated in Butte the plan of building on installments, and he has been a leading factor in developing this method of making homes, which has been an extensive and important part of his business for the last seven years.  A conspicuous item of Mr. Passmore's real estate holdings in Butte is in the Maryland Block, at 23 West Quartz street, a three story and basement modern building which he erected in 1898.  He has also many residence properties which he built for renting purposes, in dif- ferent portions of the city, and owns a fine ranch of 400 acres up the canyon south of the city, to which he has recently acquired patents.  He has always been a Republican, but takes no active share in party work, and has no aspira- tions for official station, being strictly a business man and seeking no pre- ferment outside his work.  He has been an ardent temperance worker for years and is now grand chief templar of the state.  He was a delegate to the inter- national convention fo the organization which met at Toronto, Canada, in 1899, and to the semicentennial reunion at Utica, N. Y., in August, 1901.  He is also a member of the Royal Arcanum, and is the present deputy supreme regent fo the state.  Mr. Passmore married at Andover, Mass., on December 8, 1887, Miss Susie M. Came, whom he met in North Dakota.  She was born near Portland, Maine, a daughter of Joseph and Nancy F. (Blair) Came, natives of Scotland, who emi- grated to America while they were young and married in this country.  Mr. Came died in Maine when Mrs. Passmore was of tender age, and Mrs. Came makes her home with her daughter in Butte.  Mr. and Mrs. Passmore have four children, Blair S., Paul B., Linnie E. and Abigail.  They are all active members of the Presbyterian church."

In 1681,Henry Maddock,of Loom Hall,Cheshire,England,and his brother-in-law,James Kennerly,purchased 1500 acres of land from William Penn,and arrived here some time before the Proprietary in 1682.In 1683 part of this joint purchase,supposed to be 800 acres,but really more than 1100 acres,was located in Springfield township,adjoining Ridley,and James established his residence upon it.After a few years he died,when his share of the joint purchase passed to Henry Maddock,who,returning to England,conveyed the whole to his eldest son,Mordecai Maddock.Jane Maddock,daughter of Henry,m.1690,George Maris Jr. Mordecai Maddock was appointed a trustee for Chester Meeting,10-5-1687; and in 8-13-1690,to receive subscriptions in Marple township towards building a meeting house in Chester.After this he returned to England, but was again in this country,1701-1703,at which time there is no evidence of his being a married person.In 1727 he produced a certificate for himself and wife,Sarah,from Nottingham Monthly Meeting,England. Mordecai Maddock,of Springfield,and Dorothy Roman,of Chichester,widow of Philip Roman,were married Nov.8,1733,at Springfield Meeting.In 1736 Friends of Chester Meeting sold their old meeting house to Edward Russell,and Mordecai Maddock,as surviving trustee,was requested to execute a deed for the same.No further mention of him appears on the records,nor can any will or administration on his estate be found.He had probably disposed of all his property prior to his second marriage, reserving only a life interest therein.His children,so far as known,were Henry,John,Benjamin,Elizabeth and James.To Henry he conveyed 200 acres of land,Sept.29,1733,and to his son John 300 acres more on the same date including the present site of Swarthmore College.He had previously,1698-1702,disposed of the residue of the Springfield lands.

This is good information, passed on from another list.......... Ref. to NARA and a few other "Paid" site's for Genealogy. Tim R. ( I did not do this myself, just passing it along ) ***** { Forwarded Message: } The reason that I answered the original poster the way I did is because I have been in a unique position to observe what is actually going on at the National Archives and some other places. I realize that most people do not get to see what all I have seen. { See quote at the end } Having said that, I think it's appropriate to correct wrong information, and that's what I was doing. The person who originally posted was advertising for familysearch, which is a "nonprofit" that recruits volunteers to work for them under the guise of making things available for free. While they tell you that certain things are free (the few microfilms that they have available on-site at the FHC centers, for example), what they are not telling you is that a great deal of the projects that their free labor force is working on is not put online for free for everyone's benefit, it is turned over to for-profit companies such as ancestry and footnote. There are contracts between these various companies, and they have contracts with NARA. While some may not have a problem with giving their time for free, these companies are certainly not giving the records to the rest of us for free! This is BIG business, and their profits are so huge that they can even advertise on prime-time television, thanks to all the volunteers! They even bought rootsweb, which used to be free with no advertising allowed, so that they themselves could advertise and recruit more free labor force. As for the statement: "sometimes there's problems in the original record where someone didn't write something down right, but they're finding the accuracy to the record is above 90% the way they index." Who is "they" in this statement? Can you name some auditing firm that came up with this? I am certainly not finding that kind of accuracy rate in the auditing that I have done when comparing the original records or NARA microfilm to the online indexes and images. Do you really believe an accuracy rate that is made up by the very people who are selling the records to you? The reason that people think the images look so good online is because those are the only ones that get put online. As anyone who has worked with original records can tell you, many old documents are brown with age, or the ink is badly faded, or it has several different colors, making it difficult to copy in low-resolution black-and-white images and get all of it readable. When old microfilm gets scanned and put online, the image is degraded even further, rendering a lot of it unreadable. I have found many examples of this. Pension indexes, Southern Claims, and many other things put online and indexed by the subscription services using familysearch volunteers are missing large portions. In one case, I found the greater part of an entire roll of pension index microfilm missing from the online database at ancestry...because the roll was rather dark. Any very light or very dark cards did not scan. Anything not scanned does not get indexed, so you can't even know that it exists and order a copy from NARA. Approximately 30% of the cards on the NARA pension index microfilm magically disappeared when that database went online...though the database explanation at ancestry only says that 10% is "missing". NONE of it is "missing" on the NARA microfilm, they just didn't want to fool with adjusting anything or indexing images that they couldn't produce with the low-resolution scanning that they are using. It slows them down too much, so those records get left for dead. The better images that you enjoy online are generally the records that are scanned from original documents, generating high praise when no one sees any bad images online. As far as what's missing, well...you'll never know the difference, will you? No way for you to know that it ever existed, unless you look at the NARA microfilm or records yourself, which many people cannot do. The technology exists to scan originals in high-quality color images, in fact, several independent researchers bring their own portable (and inexpensive) color scanners into the research room at NARA and make their own scans that are far better than anything online. Familysearch is not doing this. At many repositories, including NARA, when a record group is microfilmed or scanned, it is then put in the vault and they do not allow anyone to request to see the originals any more. Thus, we are stuck with the low-resolution, poor quality black-and-white scans that are being put online, without the ability to look at the original. We are also stuck with the omissions. Some of what is being locked-up didn't even make it to the scans because it was too light or too dark. It's just gone forever. Some of us don't see this as a good thing! Especially since all of us, as taxpayers, own the federal records and the microfilm at NARA. We are already paying for it, and the law directs NARA to preserve it and make it available with free access to all. If the originals get locked up after scanning, and much of the faded documents don't scan, then we have lost our access to those valuable original records. To say that this is "preservation" is laughable. Thanks, volunteers, for working for free so we can be charged more and enrich one particular huge monopoly for the records that we all are supposed to already own under the law! If you think the glass is half full, perhaps it's because you are only seeing what is being put into the glass, you aren't seeing what's missing from the glass. I have seen both. If you really want to do volunteer work to help everyone get records online for free, there are many sites that you could upload your work to where you could honestly say it is free. AND, you would do well to order good copies from the courthouse or historical society that has taken care of them all these years, who deserve the income to offset their costs of upkeep and preservation. You don't have to go there in person to get copies of records in most cases. Peggy K. Reeves > [email protected] < > I am so sorry those discouraging words were posted about the use of Family History Centers for research.? Please disregard the negativity - the glass is more than half full, I assure you.? The films made available to all of us for very little cost are such a boon to serious genealogy research.<

George Fox, the originator of the Quaker faith married, in around 1670, a woman named Margaret Fell, a convert to Quakerism, and her home was named Swarthmore Hall...this was all in Ireland, and Swarthmore Hall became an important center for the Quaker religion, and lent it's name to places in the new world...the first to come to my mind is Swarthmore College, in Pa...established as a Quaker school.....it remains a large repository of Quaker information and records.... (by the way, there is an r in the name...SwaRthmore.) Stenning, or Styning Manor was a HUGE tract of land (30,000 acres or so, if memory serves), and it was conveyed by Wm Penn to his children in around 1700. This tract includes Kennett Sq Borough, the twps of New Garden, Pennsbury, Pocopson, and a good hunk of present day New Castle, Del. I'm afraid I don't know if Stenning Hall had other origins before Penn, in Pa, ...sure could have had some sort of family tie, but I don't know it if there was....it'd be interesting to know. I'm afraid I don't understand what you're asking, about current Quaker meetings....something only open periodically, or the New Garden Meeting?....you'll have to be a bit more clear on those. Sandra " I've gone onto a site which has listed currently the Quaker meetings. I seem to remember someone saying that one of the meeting places was only open certain times of the year. Does anyone know anything about that and is the New Garden Meeting House still in the same area as these lots(1708-1713) which were tittled Manor of Stenning, later New Garden Township. From where did the name Stenning come? Maybe that is in this book too. In the book there is a place in Ireland called Swathmore(having to do with the Quaker religion too) so now I understand from where came Swathmore, PA. "

Hello, From the book "Immigration of the Irish Quakers" on page 131 they write in 1712 Gayen Miller of Kennett purchased 700 acres, and in the next year grants were made to John Lowden, James Lindley, Michael Lightfoot, Joseph Hutton, from County Carlow; James Starr of County Meath; William Halliday from County West Meath; Thomas Jackson from Queen's County; and John Miller from Grange near Charlemont and in 1714 to Thomas Garnett from Grange near Clarlemont and to Joseph Sharp possibly from Dublin or near by. Also Mary Rowland in 17089 and Abram Marshall in 1713(not sure if they were from Ireland?) But on the next page is a drawling of the plots showing Marlborough on one side, London Grove Twp on another side, Newcastle Co., DE on another side and a titled "Map of the Manor of Stenning, New Garden Township."
