My ancestor Mary FAYLE b. 1723 New Castle Co, DE, married Henry HOLLADAY/HOLLIDAY b. 1725 New Castle Co, DE at Old Swedes Church (Holy Trinity) in Wilmington, DE on 3 Mar 1745/46. I'd like to confirm both of their parents. Mary is possibly the daughter of Samuel FAYLE and Abigail GARNET. Her sisters are probably Hannah FAYLE and Abigail FAYLE. Hannah married John DOBSON at Old Swedes in Apr 1747 and Abigail married Alexander McCRACKEN at Old Swedes on 17 Jan 1749/50. I have no other info for Hannah and John DOBSON but Abigail and Alexander McCRACKEN settled in Orange Co, NC, as did Mary and Henry HOLLADAY. Mary probably has other siblings (unknown). Samuel FAYLE was born 1684 in Ireland. He and his brother, Joshua, obtained a certificate to transfer their Quaker membership from their Edenderry Meeting (King's Co, now a part of Co Offaly, just west of Dublin) to the Philadelphia Meeting in 1742, settling in Wilmington, Delaware. Are their parents Nehemiah FAYLE b. 1653, d. 1731 Co Kildare, Ireland, and Hannah UNTHANK (no info)? Nehemiah was the son of Richard FAYLE and Martha UNK. Nehemiah was a merchant in Dublin, but would he have left enough money for his children after his death in 1731? I'm not convinced that Nehemiah was their father. Samuel and Joshua were mentioned as being sons of a "Poor Friend" before their emigration in 1742: Mungo Bewley, a Quaker minister and leader, sent the following letter to Israel Pemberton, of Philadelphia on 16 first month 1742: "I now send these lines by the hands of Samuel and Joshua Fayle the sons of a Poor Friend belonging to our meeting who is for transporting them selves into your Country as Servants as also a Certificate from our mens meeting recommending them." Seems that Samuel and Joshua were indentured servants following their arrival in Philadelphia, but I don't know if their work was in Philadelphia, Chester Co or Wilmington, Delaware. Any idea about Abigail Garnet's parents in Ireland? When and where did Samuel and Abigail FAYLE die? And has anyone discovered who are Henry HOLLADAY's parents? Seems not to be William and Sarah Holladay as once reported. Eleanor Rayl ************** Feeling the pinch at the grocery store? Make dinner for $10 or less.

Then I read "Mary Coffin Starbuck and the Early History of Nantucket" by Warren- this is history mixed with everyday life and his perceptions of her personality- it makes the island very real- day to day conversations based upon history. You get a mixture of history and what he could gather about her- she is the first Quaker there, and is "the great woman." Now I am reading a book written by her granddaughter, I think, and it is about a later period buy is her own words about her life there. They had 1000 year chests into which they threw things like nails, door knobs, and all sorts of things that were passed down to the generations and finally dumped during her time- but her life was fascinating. I think it is called Mary Starbuck- it is downstairs and I just arose. The second book gave me a great feeling for Tristram and his family and the first people who lived there. If you are interested in the Swains, that book I had to copy at the Salt Lake Family History Library- Swains of Nantucket- Tales and Trails- more of a surname book with historical information in it too. Lots of people and the intermarriages. That book is very hard to find on the net and when you do it costs a whopping sum. Everyone wants to get it. I am just fortunate to have photocopied it for 6 dollars. I think there is a book about the religion behind the whaling industry in Nantucket, but didn't see it the last time I went over to BYU and I am reading other books about Nantucket- it is such a fascinating place- a country unto itself.

Good evening. I have recently added your site to my bookmarks. My family in the 17th century Flushing, Hempstead Long Island areas is directly linked to John Bowne, William Thorne and the Flushing Remonstrance of 1657. One of William Thorne's daughters married John Bowne and many of the Thornes from this generation who dropped the "e" from Thorne were of the Quaker faith and spread into New Jersey. What I would like to know is if there is any way of reaching into your archives for any email posts, if any, to these names? Thank you for any help. Richard Thorne

Do any of you with Nantucket Quakers or ancestors have photos, Bibles, or anything that could be shared with other fellow Nantucket descendants? I am co-authoring a book about my Swain grandmother, and the family research I am doing is for a background to the book. I am new to knowing that the Swains came from Nantucket, but do have a photo of a portrait of my ggg grandfather, Shubael Swain, who was born there and moved to NYC as a ship captain. His parents were Ebenezer Swain and Lydia Ellis, and his parents were Ebenezer Swain and Lydia Gyles. I am always looking for living relatives who might have stories, photos, information, Bible records, anything that would add to the story of her ancestors and cousins and even living relatives. Thanks, Sue
Hi, Jan, We've corresponded before on the Mohler/Moulder line. The John Mohler/Moulder family is not related to the Robert Moulder family of Marcus Hooks (Robert was a sailmaker and his heritage was English). I descend from the "German" emigrant, John Mohler who died near Maynardsville, TN in 1810 and was probably born in Hassloch, Prussia (now part of Germany). I have not proven his absolute birth date -- what is your source? I use "about 1734" in my files still. I paid for my Moulder uncle's Y-DNA test last year and discovered that our DNA is very close to the Ludwig and Henry Mohlers of Ephrata, Lancaster Co, PA. We now believe the Mohlers were from Basel (or just east of it), Switzerland, with John's grandfather having moved into what is now southwestern Germany near Speyer on the Rhine River where they were shepherds. John Mohler, some or all of his siblings and probably his father came to PA where Ludwig's family had settled. This DNA discovery was a big breakthrough on our family research! We are now leaning towards John Mohler's father being Heinrich Johann (or Johann Heinrich) Mohler (a.ka. "Henry Mohler") born and christened 1711 in Hassloch, Germany, and possibly a brother or cousin of Ludwig's. Henry's wife was Maria Catharina Drucktenhengst, b. 1708 in Hofheim, Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany. I agree that Susannah Swingle, John's wife, was probably of the Zwingli line, but haven't proven anything on her except for a death date and location. Much more there to research! I believe my gggg-grandfather, Jacob Moulder b. 1775, was probably the first of the Mohlers to use "Moulder" as his surname, probably in an attempt to become more American. He is using it by 1802 in Orange Co, NC, where he purchased land and married (Elizabeth Borland). There is surviving correspondence between Jacob and other members of the family back east which use "Mohler" for those in NC and VA, so we know it's the same family. Jacob was not a Quaker, but some of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren married Quaker spouses (Braxton, Carter, Ellis, Farlow, Hadley, Lindley, Millis, Nixon, Pickett, etc.). Jacob's son, John Moulder, married Eleanor Maris; she was disowned by the Society but later regained her membership in Parke Co, IN. John did become a member (I think in Parke Co at the Bloomingdale MM), and was a member in several meetings in Howard Co, IN. Still lots to research on the Mohler/Moulder line ...

Some of the Coppocks became Church of the Brethren. When I was a kid, I remember hearing the evangelist X L Coppock preach at my home church in Wichita, Dr. Doris Coppock, from this same family, was head of women's athletics dept at our college at McPherson. Brethren Encyclopedia has an article about the Coppock family, as I recall. Let me know if you're interested. As to Jacocks, most of what I know comes from the book "The Champion Family: 350 Years in America," by Ruth Crawley Champion (Gateway Press, Baltimore, 1984). These Champions went from Long Island to western New Jersey. Page 4 says that our original Champion emigrant, Thomas Champion, b c1615 in England, d 1680/81 at Hempstead, Long Island, leaving a will and a signed deed. He married: "Frances Jacocks, daughter of Francis Jacocks of Hempstead. The Jacocks family moved from Stamford, Conn., to Hempstead about 1663. Family records are at Warwickshire, England. The name was later shortened to JACOBS." Frances Jacocks, according to the Champion book, was born c1620 and died 1668/87 at Hempstead, L. I. "Early town records referred to her as 'Goody Champion,' Vol I p 345." Another section of the same book, in a chapter entitled "New Jersey Pioneers," mentions that "Many settlers from Long Island moved to the Cape May area to engage in the whaling business, which was very good at that time. Relatives of the Champion family settled in the eastern part of Gloucester County (not Atlantic Co.); among them were: Charity and Samuel Johnson, John and Mary Cole, and James Jacocks, owner of a 'whaling craft.'" Apparently Frances Jacocks Champion had two brothers, William (1627-<1697) and Thomas (1619-<1677). Thomas was born March 20 1619, Stratford on Avon, and died before Sept 1667 at Philadelphia. His wife was Ruth XX. William was born August 12, 1627 and died before Dec 1697. I don't have information regarding a wife. Their father, Francis, was born c1593, perhaps at Stratford on Avon in England, and died January 16 1672, perhaps in Philadelphia. He is described as being "of Hempstead, Long Island." His wife was Grace XX. Do we perhaps have information to share? Are these folks your Jacockses? Jan **************Feeling the pinch at the grocery store? Make dinner for $10 or less.

Just to name a few of my Quaker relatives: Vestol Jay Hockett Bennett My family traveled a lot from PA, Maryland,N.C.,S. C., Ohio, IN, Iowa and KS. Guess I must have picked up on the traveling bit!!! I was born in Iowa, and have lived in CA, IN, Fl, ILL and finally in AZ. We are not Quakers and haven't been for about 150 years but still like to move about this great country of ours.:) Mary Mc
