    3. Hello. I am the gggrandson of a Ruth Washburn from Windham and Cumberland Maine. She was married to Zahariah Field in 1839. She was born 1810 and died 1861. I have no more information than that on her. I did find a Ruth Fields (with an s) who died in Westbrook Maine on the "poor" farm. It may be the same person, but why would her husband have abandoned her to the poor farm? He died and is buried in West Cumberland Maine with a stone. She is not with him in this lot. I cannot find her grave. Maybe buried on the property??? Can anyone shed any light on this for me? Would truly appreciate it. Thank you so much...George Davis Westbrook, Maine...

    1. Re: Washburn's in Bretforton Parish Register
    2. John Maltby
    3. Jane and Tom, I have abstracted all the Washborne births, marriages and burials from the Bretforton Parish Registers. The connection with the American branch is this... William Washborne, second son of John Washborne (the first) and his wife Emme, of Bengeworth, Worcestershire, married Margaret Harward, daughter of Thomas Harward of Weston-sub-Edge on 2 Oct. 1541 in Badsey, Worcestershire. Badsey is a little village that lies directly in-between Bengeworth and Bretforton. William and Margaret made their home in Bretforton, where they had apparently 13 children. (Baptisms were found for 12 children, and another was buried there. The father was not named in the burial, but is assumed to have been William because he was the only Washborne in the town at that time having children.) Out of the 13 children of William and Margaret Washborne, the only son to marry and have children in Bretforton was William, baptized on 9 Jan. 1556/7 in Bretforton. The oldest surviving son, William married twice, first to Frances Wagstaffe on 27 July 1581 in Bretforton, and secondly to Agnes Marres on 17 June 1594 in Bretforton. He had 6 children by Frances Wagstaffe, and 4 more children by Agnes Marres. Marriages were also found in Bretforton for 6 of the daughters of William and Margaret Washborne. The only other son of William and Margaret Washborne to survive was their youngest son, John, baptized in 1562, but I have not been able to trace him any further. Five of their children were buried in Bretforton, which accounts for all except John, mentioned above. The Bengeworth line to our New England and New York immigrant ancestors follows through John Washborne (Jr.), eldest son of John and Emme Washborne, who married first to Jone Bushell on 27 Apr. 1542 in Bengeworth and secondly to Jone Whitehead on 8 March or May 1561 in Bengeworth. His only son, also named John Washborne (3rd), baptized on 31 Jan. 1551 in Bengeworth as "John Franklon alias Wasborne," apparently married twice, the first marriage record not yet found, and the second being to Martha (Timbrell) Stevens, a widow, and sister of John Timbrell and Edward Timbrell. The eldest son of John Washborne (3rd) by Martha Timbrell was yet another John Washborne (4th), baptized on 2 July 1597 in Bengeworth. He married Margery More, daughter of Robert and Ellen (Taylor) More, "glover" of Evesham, on 23 Nov. 1618 in Bengeworth. They were the immigrant ancestors to Plymouth Colony. The second son of John Washborne (3rd) by Martha Timbrell was William Washborne, baptized on 9 Nov. 1601 in Bengeworth, who married and had children in Bengeworth before immigrating to Hempstead, Long Island, New Netherlands Colony. So you see the connection to the Bretforton Washbornes is rather distant, and the family name dies out in Bretforton after 1603. I have all the Bretforton Washborne abstracts stored in my computer if anyone is still interested. The website posting was very accurate with the one fault being that because of the change in the year occuring on March 25th instead of January 1st, those dates occuring between January 1st and March 25th carried only the previous year's dates, but according to our calendar would have occured in the following year. This could only be learned by following the parish registers carefully, and I have indicated those dates by using the double-dating system, i.e., "15 March 1586/7." The date was posted on the website as 15 March 1586, but according to the parish registers, this date occured after December 1586, and would have been therefore in 1587 according to our calendar. Since the dates on the website were sorted according to year then month then day, William and Margaret Washborne's son Richard was shown as baptized 18 Mar. 1594, and their daughter Mary was shown as baptized 7 Apr. 1594, which of course is rather impossible if the baptisms were of infants. When I read the parish registers, however, it became very clear. Mary was baptized first on 7 Apr. 1594, and then Richard was baptized on 18 Mar. 1594/5, almost a year later. Hence the importance in using double-dating during the period of January 1st through March 25th! John A.

    3. > >Dear Washburn, Yes indeed my grandparents were buried in Eden, N. C. I can't >remember the name of the cemetery. Well new cousin Judith.. It looks like your grandfather and my grandfather are brothers. Our great-grandfather is Shadrack T. Washburn. So Nannie and Clara DeHart are sisters. I was wondering about that. I got their names and dates off of their tombstone. I don't have anything on the DeHart line. Our grandfathers sister Maybelle Washburn did marry Joseph Warren. I visited his son Joseph Jr. in Eden, NC a few years back. He has all of this stuff in his head. Unfortunately he's not into computers and hasn't written anything down. Joe has a picture of his mother Maybelle, and my god is she beautiful. Most all of the DeHarts and Washburns are buried in the old section of Woodlawn Cem. The DeHarts have a section on the far right side as you go into the cemetery. You know the Washburns and DeHarts were around Rtdgeway, Va Some are buried in the Cox Cemetery just outside of Ridgeway. They moved to Leaksville/Eden to make their fortune when the cotton mills opened. Anyway.. here is our great-granddaddy...

    1. Re: WASHBURN-D Digest V00 #118
    2. Dear Washburn, Yes indeed my grandparents were buried in Eden, N. C. I can't remember the name of the cemetery. I have been gone for such a long time that I have forgotten the names . A lot of Washburn's still live there. I have a lot of info. on the DeHart family, but none on the Washburn side. My grandfather was William Edgar Washburn b.Mar.4, 1877 d. Jul 12, 1935. He married Clara M. DeHart they married in Eden (Leaksville-Spray) N. C. I know he had a brother named Rucker, that married Nannie DeHart (my grandmother's sister), and a sister named May that married Joe Warren. Do any of these names sound familiar? Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Regards, Judith DeHart Wilson

    1. Benjamin Washburn - can anyone identify
    2. What I am looking for is the parentage of this particular Benjamin Washburn. Benjamin Washburn of Buckland married Christiana Galloway of Conway int. 14 Apr 1786 Conway, MA Within a few years after his marriage this couple goes to New York. (ref in 1791 land deed) What sparked my interest is a land deed recorded in Franklin Co., MA It is obviously a settled among Galloway siblings of land held by either a father or a grandfather (original ownership of land not stated) This deed uses the term "spinster" in a manner I have never seen. my definition Spinster - unmarried woman, sometimes referring to young widowed women who could remarry but hasn't In this deed each woman called spinster is actuall the GALLOWAY wife of the man mentioned. Deed dated: 1791 from copy of original received 23 May 1794 Grantors William Patrick Shields of Buckland & Anna Shields spinster [actually Nancy] Margaret Galloway II of Conway, spinster (she actually is a spinster) John Woodward of Worthington & Sarah Woodward, spinster John Wells of Whately & Elizabeth Wells, spinster Benjamin Washburn of NY & Lucretia [!] Washburn, Spinster (Signature on deed is of Benjamin Washburn & Christiana Washburn] Isabel Priest, spinster Grantee: Margaret Galloway Selling land in Conway The marriages or intentions found are John Woodward & Sarah Galloway int 2 Mar 1786 John Wells & Betsy Galloway - moved to Hamilton, NY about 1795 Nancy Galloway & Patrick WIlliam Shields married [ forgot to write down date - will check] Isabel Galloway married Jonas Priest 16 Dec 1787 West Stockbridge, MA (He was a Rev. War soldier - may have died - she appears to be in NY with her sister Christiana who married Benjamin Washburn) Washburn marriage mentioned above The only other clue I can offer is that Ezra Washburn was one of the witnesses. Would love to identify Benjamin Washburn's parents - anyone have anything further on this line? Susan Bingler Fairfax, VA
