Thanks Dan. Any chance that either you or someone else on the list knows about Indiana? Every time that I think I know and understand a set of records, I find out that I am still just a novice. I guess that is good because it allows me to continually learn new and interesting facts about genealogy. Again THANKS, Dave In a message dated 10/27/2012 3:39:50 A.M.

After her husband's death, Margaret Fell married George Fox. William Meade died in 1713, and was not, as far as I can tell, rereading quickly, connected to Maryland. William and Sarah had one child, a son, Nathaniel (1684-1760) who was knighted.

When a Quaker couple get married do they complete a marriage license? Is this a change to how things were done in the past? Thanks, Dave

Hello I just found this interesting little book at http://books.google.com/books?id=BMoxs7o-JWwC&oe=UTF-8 The tryal of William Penn & William Mead for causing a tumult: at the sessions held at the Old Bailey in London the 1st, 3d, 4th, and 5th of September 1670. Who is this William Mead? Did he or his children come to Maryland, Pennsylvania or Loudoun Co., VA? Judy Whipple

Is the entire Concessions and Agreements document scanned and available for viewing anywhere on the web? I looked but could find only the first page. Thanks. best, Paul

Yes of course it is the same George Elkington (earlier, in England, was spelled without the g). However, do regard the pedigree back of Charlemagne's mother with a grain of salt. It might be OK for a few generations..... but there is no proof of many of the generations that some would like to think goes back to Julius Caesar! I have done extensive research on this pedigree of George Elkington's, in fact it was my research in England which finally proved his descent and gave approval for my mother (Mildred Haworth London) and myself to become the first members of the "Order of the Crown of Charlemagne in the United States of America" in 1988, by right of George Elkington as an ancestor.

Thank you Linda. There on the list is my William Clayton; and Dr. Daniel Wills who brought another servant with him, my ancestor George Elkington (from Northamptonshire) who is not actually listed. George Elkington's ancestry goes back to Charlemagne, via Edward I, and William the Conqueror. An amazing story for a Quaker blacksmith.

On Ancestry.com is the following information. This looks like a reliable source, though it is not a passenger list. If the 1671 date comes from a secondary source, I'd go with this one, especially if you get the actual source in the NJ Archives.

Thanks. But he is not on that list. In fact, I do not see on any list of Kent passengers. Maybe he was on another ship.

Can someone help clear up a mystery for me? Some information on the net says that Bernard Devonish (died 1694/1695 near Burlington, NJ, married to Martha) came over in 1677, and some says he arrived in 1679. I cannot find the original ship's manifest for the Kent, his alleged boat. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks. best, Paul

In response to the  request on 10/17 for "information about John BIGGS b. 1620 England, d. 1691 VA  who was married to  Johanna SAYER":  The 1991 Index to the Collection of the Sufferings of the People Called Quakers... to...1689, by Joseph Besse  (2 vols, originally published in London in 1753) shows references in vol.1 to John Biggs in Buckinghamshire (p.80) and Northamptonshire (p.534),  to Robert Biggs in Lancashire (p.309), to Eleanor Biggs in Cornwall (p.123), and to a Henry Bigg in Bedfordshire (p.4).   Three persons named Sayer are named in vol.1:  John in Northamptonshire  (p.518), Mary in Somersetshire  (p.630), and Samuel in Somertsetshire, (pp.613, 622).  I do not have the two volumes of text, where accounts of arrests and other harassment for such offenses as not attending or paying tithes to the state church are compiled, only the Index to names. On the Q-ROOTS List in July 2002, someone researching Whitehursts reported finding reference to John Biggs in Virginia who was fined in 1675  by the court at James City for not having his children baptized, and who was named in v.6 (pp.,11-12) in Hinshaw's Encyclopedia of Am. Quaker Genealogy as one of a pre-1700 group of 40 Quakers in Norfolk Co, VA. -- S. Newton

Stephen, I would find a local family history center for the LDS church and order film Third Haven Monthly Meeting index book Family History Library US/CAN Film 13144 Item 1 and order Film #6302, Records of Third Haven monthly meeting, Talbot County, Md, to start with. Also check films: Maryland Quaker (Friends) records of Third Haven (Tred Avon), Talbot County, Located on these films Vol. 1 Film 859284 Item 2 Vol. 2 parts 1-2 Film 859311 Items 1 - 2 Vol. 3 part 1 Film859284 Item 3 Vol.3 parts 2-4 Film 859311 Items 3 - 5 That in my opinion, would be a good place to start.
