Following my recent mailing in reply to the query of Janet concerning the will of Cornelius Garretson, son of Garret Garretson and his wife Charity Hussey, I read the mailing sent from [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) which included abstracts of several Garretson wills. Perhaps my first mailing was confusing, and I will try to clarify my present understanding of the situation, derived from these wills and from data included in my _Delaware Quaker Records_: The John Garretson whose will was proved in 1694 was the father of Garrett, Casparius, and Cornelius Garretson and certain daughters. The wife of John Garretson was Anne. This was probably the same Jan Garretson who probably came from Gelderland, Holland and purchased a lot and built a house in New Castle perhaps as early as 1657-1664 in the time when the Dutch controlled the area, before they surrendered it to the English. There is some question as to whether the John Garretson who died in 1694 or his father came from Holland. There is no record that this John Garretson was a member of the Society of Friends, but his three sons were evidently members. He may have been convinced of Quakerism as early as 1672 when George Fox visited New Castle and held a memorable meeting in the court house. Garrett Garretson, son of John Garretson, married Charity Hussey. Charity Hussey, b. 8 mo. 4, 1681, was one of the youngest children of the large family of John and Rebecca (Perkins) Hussey. John and Rebecca and a number of their children and their families had moved from Hampton, New Hampshire to New Castle, Delaware in 1695. John and Rebecca had been ardent Quakers from their early married years, being mentioned in the Quaker classic _New England Judged_. Garrett and Charity (Hussey) Garretson had as many as ten children, most of whom are mentioned in the will of Garrett Garretson proved in 1754. However, this will states that a son, Cornelius Garretson, is deceased, but names the two sons of Cornelius, James and John. In my previous mailing I mentioned a certificate which was granted by Wilmington Monthly Meeting on 9 mo. 4, 1756 to Cornelius Garretson, who was moving to within the limits of West River MM in Maryland. I now believe that this was Cornelius Garretson, a younger son of John (or Jan) Garretson, and a brother of Garrett Garretson. This Cornelius would have been an elderly man by this time. I do not know whether this elderly Cornelius Garretson died in Maryland or whether he returned to New Castle County before he died. However, it appears that his will was proved in New Castle County in 1765. This 1765 will of Cornelius Garretson indicates that this man had no surviving children. His estate seems to have been parceled out among his nephews and nieces, whom he refers to as "cousins". He refers to "cousin James Garretson, son of Cornelius". This is evidently James Garretson, son of Garrett and Charity (Hussey) Garretson. No mention is made of John Garretson, the other son of Garrett and Charity. Perhaps he was no longer living. I am inclined to believe that Cornelius Garretson, son of Garrett and Charity Garretson, died as a young marred man, probably as the result of an accident or sudden illness. He probably left no will. I have no record of his wife, whom Janet refers to as Hester. It is my observation that the names Hester and Esther were sometimes used for the same person in those early times. Hester probably came from the New Castle area. She may not have been a member of the Society of Friends. I do not believe that either of the brothers James and John Garretson, are mentioned in northern Delaware Quaker records. - Herbert Standing **************From Wall Street to Main Street and everywhere in between, stay up-to-date with the latest news.

Carol Harris, Deer Creek MM was one of the major north Maryland monthly meetings (I have defined all these terms in my Data Definitions tab: http://www.quakermeetings.com/DataDefinitions ), though Deer Creek MM may cause some confusion because for a time three branches each claimed to be the "real Friends" there. http://www.quakermeetings.com/meeting_view?anID=TST575L The Hicksite/FGC branch, into which the smaller FUM branch merged in 1948 http://www.quakermeetings.com/meeting_view?anID=TST579L The Orthodox/FUM branch http://www.quakermeetings.com/meeting_view?anID=TST580L The Primitive branch that separated from the Orthodox in 1854 I would check the records for each branch in this order until you find your ancestors. As for secondary genealogical sources, Hinshaw's Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy does not include Deer Creek. However, I understand that Peden's book is quite thorough. For Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, I assume you need to search Muncy Monthly Meeting records, with two branches. http://www.quakermeetings.com/meeting_view?anID=TST1165L The Hicksite branch now named Millville MM and meeting in Columbia County, PA http://www.quakermeetings.com/meeting_view?anID=TST1214L The Orthodox MM has now changed its name to Pennsdale MM. I do not recall which was the larger branch at the 1828 separation, though the Hicksites were generally more numerous in the rural Philadelphia YM quarterly meetings. Again, Hinshaw's EAQG does not cover Muncy MM, but there are some genealogical summaries stored with the original records and some references cited under "Local-Related Histories." Tom Thomas C.

I am searching for descendants of George Harris, son of Samuel Harris and Margaret Hopkins. It is my understanding that they belonged to the Deer Creek Meeting House and were in Cecil and Harford Counties before going to Lycoming County.

Mark, does your Copelands include and Isom Copeland born roughly about 1800 and married to a Mahala? They had a daughter named Rebecca Rachel Copeland b. 7-25-1829 Henry Co., Indiana?

I'm a Copeland descendant and, of course, would love to be able to include "earless" John Copeland, the Quaker martyr, in the family along with Samuel Shattuck. Unfortunately, the documentation seems to get a bit thin by the time I get back to the 17th Century. What I have is a line I "inherited" it from a distant cousin (now deceased) about 20 years ago - and, frankly, I've always doubted it because I found other issues with her work. Basically, it ran like this: Thomas Copeland (b. 1635, London) m. Martha Winslow Thomas Copeland (b. 1667, North Carolina) m. Gulielma Griffin Henry Copeland (b. 1699, North Carolina) m. Margaret Savage Henry Copeland (b. 1724, Isle of Wight, VA) m. Rachel Joshua Copeland (b. ca. 1749) m. Susannah Pike Samuel Thomas Copeland (b. 1773, North Carolina) m. Pharaby Cotton Susannah Copeland (b. 1812, North Carolina) m. John Black I'm comfortable as far back as Joshua because he's cited in Susannah's obituary. Some widely posted Copeland lines replace everyone north of Joshua and run like this: Lawrence Copeland (b. ca. 1590, York, England) m. Ruth John Copeland* (b. 1611/12, York, England) m. Sarah Ratcliffe William Copeland (b. 1650, Isle of Wight, VA) m. Christian Charles Copeland (b. ca. 1693, North Carolina) m. Mary Joshua Copeland (b. ca. 1749) m. Susannah Pike Etc. I have no documentation for either line. Isn't it always the way? Thanks! Mark E. Dixon Wayne, PA ----- Original Message ----- From: "S.

When Thomas Story the minister visited that area in 1698, he was hosted at Terrasco Neck east of Chuckatuck by "old John Copeland" who had lost an ear.

Robert II and Sarah had children who are named in his 1733 Cecil Co. MD will but may not be in the Quaker record. Many American Quakers are descended from George Hodgson, who is said to have immigrated as a child, married Mary Thatcher in Wilmington DE in 1729/30 and moved to NC (between Cane Creek and Guilford) along with a Robert Hodgson of about the same age in 1751. Some of George's descendants, in Hodgson, Hodson and Hodgin lines, claim to trace back to Robert the missionary. But the connection between George and the Roberts has not to my knowledge been firmly documented. The older Robert also had two daughters born in Portsmouth RI. One, Alice (b.1668), > became in 1699 the second wife of Phineas Pemberton, a prominent Philadelphia Friend, but her only child was born in a later 1704 marriage to Thomas Bradford.

Daughter Elizabeth from his first marriage to Mary Scott, who probably accompanied him to England, married and settled there. From his second marriage, the surviving children, Christopher and Hope, probably settled in America, though the son may have been sent to England to live with his father for a while after his mother's death.

   Mark and others, I think we have to be careful which Damaris SHATTUCK about whom we are speaking. There is the Damaris SHATTUCK who is spoken of in the records as "widow Shattuck" of Salem MA. According to my research, she and her first husband, Mr. SHATTUCK, (I have seen suggestions that his given name was Samuel and her maiden name was Sibley, but with no documentation) had seven children including Mark's ancestor Hannah SHATTUCK, married to George GARDNER; and my ancestor Damaris SHATTUCK, married to Isaac PAGE (some also say married to another PAGE, but  I have seen no documentation for that marriage).  Widow Damaris SHATTUCK subsequently married Capt.

Someone has asked me if any of the Quakers who came to America on the Woodhouse in 1657 left American descendants. Probably three of them did. I am summarizing below what I have learned to date about what became of them. -- S. Newton Wm. Brend was back in London by 1661, when he would have been about 45. He signed a Quaker epistle in 1672, wrote 6 Quaker tracts, and in 1676 was buried in London’s Bunhill Fields, where George Fox was buried. I do not know if he left any descendants or not. Mary Clark left her children and husband in London, where he was in business, to make this trip to America. She and Mary Wetherhead and Richard Doudney were all lost at sea in 1658 when pirates captured their ship after they left Barbados, presumably on their way home. There were prominent families named Clarke in Newport at the time she was there, but no one has suggested that she was related to them. They were for the most part not Friends, with the notable exception of Walter, who later served as governor of the colony. John Copeland, around 30 in 1657, was from Holderness in eastern Yorkshire. Like Christopher Holder, he returned to England after losing his right ear in Boston, and in 1660 helped compile the complaint which Edward Burrough took to the king about the Quaker hangings and the severity of the Boston court’s sentences. He married twice in England, in 1667 and 1677, then married a third time in 1691 and settled in southern Virginia, where he died in 1718. When Thomas Story the minister visited that area in 1698, he was hosted at Terrasco Neck east of Chuckatuck by “old John Copeland” who had lost an ear. A century later, there were Copelands at Somerton Meeting in southern VA and at Rich Square Meeting in northeastern NC, but I do not know if they were descended from John or not. Richard Doudney died at sea, see Mary Clark above. I do not know his age, or if he left any descendants Robert Fowler, the Woodhouse captain, was a mariner and boat builder from Bridlington on the Yorkshire coast. Though one of the first to turn Quaker there, he did not go to America to preach, so probably just sold his small boat in Rhode Island and sailed home on some other and bigger ship. He did, apparently, preach some and suffer for it after returning to England. The Mary Fowler of Bridlington Meeting (which lasted until 2005) might possibly have been his wife, but there were other Fowlers among the early Quakers of Yorkshire. Sarah Gibbons from Bristol was about 26 in 1659 when she drowned after the small boat taking her from ship to shore capsized at Providence RI. Robert Hodgson made trips back to England both before and after his 1665 marriage to Rachel Shotten. Around this date, he settled at Portsmouth RI where he died in 1996, in his 70s, called an “ancient Friend”. His son, Robert II, married Sarah Borden in RI and settled in Chester Co, PA. Robert II and Sarah had children who are named in his 1733 Cecil Co. MD will but may not be in the Quaker record. Many American Quakers are descended from George Hodgson, who is said to have immigrated as a child, married Mary Thatcher in Wilmington DE in 1729/30 and moved to NC (between Cane Creek and Guilford) along with a Robert Hodgson of about the same age in 1751. Some of George’s descendants, in Hodgson, Hodson and Hodgin lines, claim to trace back to Robert the missionary. But the connection between George and the Roberts has not to my knowledge been firmly documented. The older Robert also had two daughters born in Portsmouth RI. One, Alice (b.1668), became in 1699 the second wife of Phineas Pemberton, a prominent Philadelphia Friend, but her only child was born in a later 1704 marriage to Thomas Bradford. I have not traced the Bradford child or learned what became of Alice’s older sister, Mary (b.1666) after she, too, left RI for PA in or around 1700. Chistopher Holder (1631-1688) left both American and English descendants, probably more in America, best documented in his daughter Mary’s Slocum family. Holder himself left Rhode Island in 1680 and spent several of his remaining years imprisoned in England, where he remarried, never returning to America. Daughter Elizabeth from his first marriage to Mary Scott, who probably accompanied him to England, married and settled there. From his second marriage, the surviving children, Christopher and Hope, probably settled in America, though the son may have been sent to England to live with his father for a while after his mother’s death. It is claimed that one of Holder’s descendants was John Wanton who became governor of Rhode Island in 1734. Humphrey Norton returned to Co. Durham in northern England embittered by his American experience, and may have dropped out of the Quaker movement. I do not know if he left any descendants or not. William Robinson, always described as “young”, who traveled through the colonies as far south as Virginia, may have been the most effective preacher in the 1657 group. From Cumberland, he was apparently located in London, just launching into a career as a merchant when he decided to go to America. Unfortunately, he was one of those unwelcome Quakers from abroad hung by the Boston authorities in 1659. Dorothy Waugh, who became a Quaker in Westmoreland and began preaching while in her teens, preached and suffered for the Quaker cause in New Amsterdam, Connecticut and Boston and then went home. She left New England for Barbados in late 1658 and apparently sailed for England from there. She died as Dorothy Lotherington in Whitby, on the Yorkshire coast, her husband, William, a fellow Quaker. Mary Wetherhead from Bristol, nearly 30, died at sea, see Mary Clark above.

Hello, I want to thank all the people who have gotten with me after my first attempt at posting on this site, everyone has been very helpful. I've been researching my Davidson genealogy for some years now, and could only go back as far as my 4th great grandfather, but since a cousin of mine has so graciously contributed to the Davidson/Davison/Davisson DNA project we now know that we belong with the Family 4 of the project. The administrators and I have discussed the connections to us, and have come to the conclusion that the direction to look at now is through William Davison and Ruth Sidwell, who were Quakers..here is what I have seen records on: New Garden (Guilford Co., NC) MM 1777/12/29 James Davison, son of James, Guilford Co., m Hannah Sidwell 1778/11/30 William Davison, son of James, Guilford Co., m.

To everyone who has contacted me about this will, here it is....BUT I should have said that this COULD be the father of our Isaac Page. I came across this will in 1988 on a visit to the Essex Record Office, in Colchester, Essex in England where I then lived. There is no proof yet, but I thought this was most interesting. However, I am not at all sure that the timing would be right. Isaac Page married Damaris Shattuck in 1653. If he was 25 years old, he would have been born in 1627. If he was 30 years old, not unusual in those days when a man had to establish himself before thinking of starting a family....he could have been born about 1622. Abraham Page made his will in 1628 in Much Baddow, Essex. Isaac would have been about 6, or at any rate, probably under ten years old. Abraham had a son younger than Isaac, so when he made his will, with no mention of a wife, and if his children were that young, he would surely have mentioned some provision for their care and upbringing. Therefore, I think this Abraham Page, although a possibility, must not be viewed as anything more than that. Sorry to have gotten your hopes up, before I got the file out and refreshed my memory.....it has been a long time. (I did not find a probate date for this will). "In the Name of God Amen. I ABRAHAM PAGE of Much Baddow in the Countie of Essex, bricklayer, being weak in bodie but of good and perfect memorie, thanks be unto Almightie God, doe make and ordeyne this my last will and testament in the manner and forme following, viz: ffirst, and principallie I commend my sould into the hands of God the father hoping to be saved and obteyne the remission of my sinnes through the merrits and passion of Jesus Christ his sonne my alone Saviour and redemer; and my bodie to the earth to be decentlie buried with Christian buriall. And for mmy worldlie goodes wherewith it hath pleased God to blesse me I will and bequeath them in manner and forme followinge. Imprimis [Firstly], I give and bequeath unto my oldest sonne ABRAHAM PAGE the summe of fortie pounds of good and lawfull english money to be paid unto him when he shall accomplish the full age of one and twentie years; Item, I give and bequeath unto my second sonne ISAACK PAGE the summe of fortie pounds of lawfull english money to be paid to him when he shall accomplish his full age of one and twentie yeares." Item, [same, exactly, unto "my youngest sonne JACOB PAGE"]. Next clause says that if any one of the three sons die before they reach 21, then his portion is to be paid to the survivors, equally to each. In the next two clauses, Abraham bequeaths "unto my said three sonnes" all his household goods and implements, and all his cows, cattle and sheep to be equally divided amongst them. The rest of his "goods, chattles, readie money and debts (my debts and funerall expence and charge in the Spirituall Court being paid and discharged)" to his said three sons in equal shares. "And I make and ordeyne Jeremie Whatmay of Chelmsford in the countie of Essex, Lynnendraper, my sole and onlie executor..... And my will and meaning is that he shall deduct so much money out of my estate and legacies before bequeathed as shall serve for his necessarie expences in travail, cost and charges in being executor hereunto. And I entreat my Cozen THOMAS PEASE to be Overseer hereof, to whom I give twentie shillings. In witness whereof I have herewith sett my hand and seale......the three and twentieth day of October in the fourth yeare of the raigne of our Soveraigne Lord Charles by the grace of God King.....Defender of the faith etc. Anno Dom: 1628 Witnesses: Thomas Pease [Peasley?] and Humfrie Lowth Signed......by mark [as opposed to a signature of the testator] Ref. D/ABW 49/110 at the Essex Record Office, Chelmsford, Essex What needs to be done is to examine the relevant parish registers of Much Baddow, Essex and surrounding parishes, to determine if these three sons reached adulthood, and married, or died......and thus remained in England. This would eliminate this family as the one relevant to our Isaac Page. I examined the minutes of Pasquotank MM (at Guilford College, Greensboro, NC) and near the back of the register, Henry White has written in his own handwriting: "our frind Isake Page departed this life the 4th day of the 5th month [July] in the yere of our acounte 1680 being a faithfull testimony for the truth tell his death." Henry White was the executor of Isaac's estate, and married 2nd to Isaac's daughter Damaris Page Morris [widow of John Morris] on 10 July 1681. I am descended from their daughter Damaris White who married Thomas Symons. Although the above Abraham Page is not proven to be the father of our Isaac, I do have some circumstantial evidence that makes this look likely. The well-known James Savage in his "Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England", vol. 3, p.330 (reprint by Genealogical Publishing Co., 1977) under PAGE has an ABRAHAM of Boston in 1645, a tailor, FROM GREAT BADDOW IN ESSEX [my caps] who by his wife Mary, of Braintree, had a son Abraham, bapt 1646 at Boston, died the same month. Savage also mentions our ISAAC PAGE of Boston, m. 30 Sept 1653 to Damaris Shattuck; and was probably THE BRICKLAYER [my caps] at Salem in 1658." This information would certainly seem to tie all the evidence together. One last quote, from "The American Genealogist", vol. 30, p.168, 1954, in an article on 'The Salem Shattucks' says (under heading of Damaris Shattuck) that "Pope (Pioneers, 338 f.) cites Suffolk Deeds [Suffolk Co., MA?] vol. 1, p.66, for the statement that Abraham Page, tailor, of Great Baddow, Essex had a bond dated 25 Aug 1636 from William Vincent for 20 pounds when he should be 21 years of age, otherwise to his brothers ISAAC and Jacob." So despite my earlier skepticism about Abraham Page, bricklayer, of Much Baddow, Essex, will of 1628 being the father of "our" Isaac Page.....this now does appear very likely. Note: There is no "Much Baddow" on the maps now, but there is a village of Little Baddow a few miles east of Chelmford, Essex; and Great Baddow is now a southern suburb of Chelmsford. I hope this is of interest, although a bit lengthy for an email! Marilyn Winton Totten

Is this the manner in which I post any message to your board? Thank you so much. Terry Menck

Just curious...Does the Shattuck family line being discussed here have any connection to the late gentleman named Frank G. Shattuck, who ran the extensive Schrafft's restaurant chain for many years? Although the chain's retail restaurant outlets were somewhat notorious for catering to the tastes of urban elderly women of some means, I, as a young man working in advertising in New York City in the 1960's, always found their offerings most appealing.    --- On Sun, 1/25/09, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: From: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: QUAKER-ROOTS Digest, Vol 4, Issue 30 To: [email protected] Date: Sunday, January 25, 2009, 3:01 AM Today's Topics:    1.

Hello, I am new to searching Quaker records and really don't know what is available. I am searching for descendants of George Harris, son of Samuel Harris and Margaret Hopkins. It is my understanding that they belonged to the Deer Creek Meeting House and were in Cecil and Harford Counties before going to Lycoming County. I would like to find record of George's marriage and list of children. George was born about 1765 in Deer Creek, Harford County and was probably married by the 1790s. He died in Lycoming Co. in 1811.
