I have recently rejoined this list after an absence of a few years.  My former address was on prodigy.net.  I hope to reconnect with some of those with whom I had corresponded before .         Those who are researching the line of William Gregg, 1642-1687, who was buried "on his own plantation" in New Castle County DE, may be interested to know there is now information on FindAGrave, Memorial No.  # 63388074.   There is extensive text on that site about William and a few other family members.  The person who posted the memorials is happy to have "edits" if you care to contact them..   My direct line includes Silas Gregg born 1759 who married Rhoda Armstrong.  I have never been able to locate their marriage record, if anyone else has found it -- or may have suggestions, I would greatly appreciate that.   Silas was disowned from the Quakers for a time, possibly for marrying out -- her family was Presbyterian.    They migrated south to Wilkes Co. GA and then settled in Preble Co. OH by about 1805.  Both are buried there, also listed on FindAGrave.    Karen

Someone on this list will be able to help you out, but what came to mind to me is that early records were the list of all who attended the wedding. Sometimes, it was only seven or eight people. IF the father of the groom was alive, he would have attended and his name would generally have been first on the left hand side of the record. The father of the bride was on the right. The mothers were below their husbands, but in a lot of records, the men had died and would not have been there as they were unable to be in attendance. I have the feeling that I am describing very early records and that when folks had to make a record for the state, all that information was on the "official" record, but not necessarily on the record that everyone signed after the ceremony other than if they used the "old" method of recording family names.

Hi, I am trying to find any information on a Society of Friends (Quaker) Samuel(s) family from near Dolgellau, Merionethshire, Wales during the period of 1650 to 1700 William Samuel and wife Mary (Margaret) came to America by 1697 and settled in the Welsh tract near Philadelphia Pennsylvania, U.S.A. There they attended Radnor and Gwynedd Monthly Meetings in America. Their three children were born in America: Joseph 1697, Isaac 1700 and Elizabeth 1702. Any information, clues or places to search in Welsh records or genealogies would be greatly appreciated and highly valued. Sort of facing a brick wall now. Many thanks, Harry Harry E.

Helen, I may have seen the Cornthwaite name in connection with some Philadelphia YM documents, but I do not have them at hand.

I am doubly decended from Henry Watkins of Henrico county, VA (probably Cedar Creek meeting house) when my 4th great grandparents, Silas Watkins, son of Joel, married his distant cousin.

Friends, I have been working in recent weeks on the locations of Quaker meetings in the _Nottingham Quarterly Meeting_ ("QM") of Baltimore Yearly Meeting ("BYM"). Nottingham QM included meetings in northern Maryland (Cecil and Harford Counties) and southeastern Pennsylvania (Lancaster, Chester and York Counties). All the monthly meetings and most of the preparative and particular meetings that ended up in Nottingham QM started in Philadelphia YM's Western QM (or Concord QM even earlier). In 1789 Philadelphia YM and Maryland YM swapped meetings on the two sides of the Susquehanna River and Chesapeake Bay, resulting in Deer Creek MM's moving to Baltimore QM in what after 1790 took the name "Baltimore YM". In 1819, the other two monthly meetings, Nottingham MM and Little Britain MM, moved from Western QM in PYM to the new Nottingham QM in BYM. Thus, Nottingham QM started in May 1819 with three monthly meetings, Nottingham, Little Britain and Deer Creek. Those three MMs have stayed in BYM until today, though Deer Creek dropped out of Nottingham QM about 15 years ago. In 1828 Baltimore YM followed its northern and cross-Chesapeake-Bay neighbor Philadelphia YM in a Hicksite-Orthodox separation. While Philadelphia YM was perhaps two-thirds Hicksite, Baltimore YM was 75-80% Hicksite. For this post, after 1828 I will follow only the Orthodox meetings in Nottingham QM. Nottingham QM Orthodox continued the three MMs at the separation, but in February 1829 it transferred Little Britain Preparative Meeting ("PM") to Nottingham MM and combined Little Britain and Nottingham PMs into "Nottingham & Little Britain MM." That left only two monthly meeting in the QM, but BYM Orthodox transferred Centre MM (Orthodox) in Bellefonte, PA and Dunnings Creek MM (Orthodox) in Fishertown, PA from the predominantly-Hicksite Warrington QM Those central-Pennsylvania MMs formed the new Dunnings Creek QM after 1840. In 1854, BYM-Orthodox separated into more-or-less Gurneyite and Wilburite branches in sympathy with the same branches in New England and Ohio YMs. Nottingham QM Orthodox went almost entirely with the "Primitive" or Wilburite Friends in 1854. Only Deer Creek MM had both Gurneyite and Wilburite branches for any significant time after 1854. BYM Primitive in turn laid itself down in 1868, and Nottingham QM joined Pennsylvania [Primitive] General Meeting of Men & Women Friends. This is all described in the "Yearly Meetings" tab of www.QuakerMeetings.com . NOTTINGHAM & LITTLE BRITAIN MM ("N&LB"): This is the renamed Orthodox branch of Nottingham MM. I have concluded that within six months of the separation, N&LB had only two preparative meetings. (A) Nottingham Preparative & Particular Meeting in Cecil County at the "West Nottingham Meeting Lot", now Colora MD 21917, and (B) Little Britain PM, near the (Hicksite) Eastland PM, the Orthodox meeting on Ballance Road, Peach Bottom 17563, Lancaster County, PA. A. For the _Nottingham PM_, N&LB in 1841 acquired property from Thomas & Rebecca Waring and appointed as Trustees Thomas Levering, William Waring, Lloyd Balderston, Griffith Levering and Joseph Ballance. In 1849, the PM acquired additional property from William & Lydia L. Waring. Also by 1849, both Thomas and Griffith Levering had removed to Morrow County, Ohio [to Alum Creek or Gilead MM, then in Ohio Yearly Meeting Orthodox], but Waring and Balderston still resided in Cecil County and Ballance still resided in Lancaster County. Apparently, starting about 1860, Friends in this particular meeting mostly joined West Grove PM of New Garden MM in Chester County, PA. The meeting became Colora Preparative Meeting and then Colora Monthly Meeting in Philadelphia Y.M. B. For _Little Britain PM_, N&LB in 1840 acquired property from Joseph Smedley and Joseph Ballance and appointed as Trustees Thomas Miller, Harris Reed & William Waring. By 1887, only Harris Reed survived and then lived in Burlington County, NJ. N&LB, in one of its last acts before it was laid down and its members attached to Philadelphia MM Primitive, appointed as Trustees of the Little Britain PM property John C. Maule of Bristol, Bucks County, PA; and Elijah Kester & Thomas Waring of Cecil County. In 1892, Philadelphia MM Primitive declared Elijah Kester & Thomas Waring out of unity [I suspect because they had rejoined the Orthodox PYM] and appointed as new Trustees for the Little Britain PM property Spencer Harris of Rancocas, Burlington County, NJ and Joseph T. Miller of Little Britain Township, Lancaster County, PA. Miller continued as a Trustee until after 1931. Description of the monthly meetings have long been listed on www.QuakerMeetings.com . My latest conclusions are based on deeds available on-line in Maryland and in Lancaster County PA, but I may have misread them. I would be glad to share details of the deeds and, before or after sharing, to hear of any errors in my conclusions. Tom Hill Thomas C.

"My will is that after my former wife's children have had their portions, that all my personal estate be divided betwixt my widow and my daughter Elizabeth according to law." "And I desire yt my wife shall give to the child yt she is now great with, if it should live when born, forty pounds" It would appear from this that Edward, Richard, Ann, and William are children of Rachel (Pennington) Beeson, and that Elizabeth and Rachel (my notes suggest that she was born in 1713, and is thus the unborn child mentioned) are Elizabeth (Grubb) (Beeson) Rich's children. My notes also include a son Isaac, son of Edward and Rachel. He evidently died young, as he is not mentioned in the will. I count Edward and Rachel's son Richard, who married Charity Grubb (a first cousin of his stepmother), as my 7g grandfather. I also believe John Rich, son of Joseph and Elizabeth (Grubb) (Beeson) Rich, is my 6g grandfather. -- Dan Treadway P. O.
