301 An alternate birth and death date are given in the book by Warren called "King John" of 1153-6. (C-433) OF ENGLAND, William (I2309)
 
302 An alternate birth date for Philipa is 1314 in Pipers book. (C-330) She is listed as the daughter of Guillaume III De Avesnes of Hainault and Jean De Valois in Randy Wilson's homepage. Since most of his information comes from the LDS Ancestral File, I give it less credence. (C-870) OF HAINAULT, Philippa (I2280)
 
303 An alternate birthdate is given for Nathaniel of 1740 in the Public Member Trees for Ancestry.com. TOBIN, Nathaniel (I1313)

305 An online ancestry of King Edward III and Philipa of Hainault states that this Adelaide was the daughter of Louis I, King of France and Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. (C-827) Other sources like Weis have stated Hugh III is her father. Her name is also spelled Aelis. (C-1440) OF TOURS, Adelaide (I3234)

307 Andras is likely one of the 2 children that Joseph and Maria had that died according to the 1900 census which showed them with 7 living children and 2 whom had passed. In any case, he did not come to America with this family that we know of. Mihaly Vovcsick was the witness to his baptism which took place one day after his birth. Mihaly would likely have been his grandfather or his Uncle, Maria's brother. DUDIK, Andras (I12890)
 
308 Andrej Dudik lived at house 41 when his son Bogdan died. In the 1869 census, another sibling is living in that home instead, Gyorgy Dudik, b. 1830. In home 42, there is a family of Bogdan's which I'm assuming is why his son had that name.

Andrej Dudik lived at house 41or 42 when his son Bogdan died in 1854. I can't find the original Byzantine church record to verify which household he was from. In the 1869 census, another possible sibling is living in that home instead, Gyorgy Dudik, b. 1830 or 1836. In home 42, there is a family of Bogdan's which I'm assuming is why Andrej' son, Bogdan, had that name. 
DUDIK, Andrej (I13092)
 
309 Andrew and his wife, in "serious reflection" joined the Quaker church. Their children were raised in this faith, and they were elders in the church. When the church had the great controversy over Elias Hicks preaching in 1828 and split in two, Andrew and his wife were disowned for adhering to the Hicksite division. Only 2 of their children remained in the Quaker faith. (c-2179d) HOOVER, Andrew (I7746)
 
310 Andrew is in the 1827 Gallia Co. Tax lists for chattel (not property) he owned in Huntington Twp. at that time. He purchased 41.15 acres of congressional lands in Gallia Co., on Sep 28, 1836. (CL-449) He is in in the Gallia Co. Deed records as having purchased Lot 15 & 16 in the town of Porter from his brothers, Samuel, Robert C. and Harvey Glenn on Nov. 22, 1838. The top of the deed is listed as between William Glenn's (Administrators?) to Andrew Y. Glenn. Their father William had died the previous year. The three sons selling the property in Gallia, were currently residents of Highland Co., (OH). By 1874, he is likely the A.Y. Glenn living in Twp. 7, R. 16, section 25 in the "Illustrated Atlas of Gallia Co., OH". His property was on Raccoon Creek in Huntington Twp. and bordered near property owned by W.W.Glenn and G.W. Glenn in Morgan Twp., Gallia Co., OH just to the east of him and W.C. Glenn and James Glenn literally to the direct west of him in section 26 of Huntington Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio (CL-PHO, 499)

In the Glenn family cemetery south of Vinton, Ohio where he and his wife are buried, a William C. Glenn, b. Jun 21, 1831 who died on Mar 1, 1907 married to an Elizabeth was his son. William C. was a Civil War veteran and was buried in the same grouping with Andrew Y. Glenn. Persons were definitely buried in family groupings in the Glenn Cemetery, and it is highly likely that William C. Glenn will turn out to be Andrew Y. Glenn's son from the layout of the cemetery. (CL-455) Andrew Young Glenn and his wife lived to be a very old. He and his wife lived with their son, Robert Emmett Glenn by that time. He is remembered by his great grandson Roy Steele Glenn as having long white hair and beard to his shoulders sitting in an arm chair with bible in hand. He was apparently an operator on the Underground railroad like his brother, James. (CL-509) 
GLENN, Andrew Young (I1377)
 
311 Andrew's name in the old country was Andreas Huber. He was from Swiss stock. His baptism and birth date is copied and available in the "Immigrant Ancestors of Miami Valley, OH, Quaker Families". (C-2251A) His father was a successful winemaker who had moved the family from Switzerland to Germany. His gr. and gr.gr. grandfather were Sheriff's in Switzerland. Andreas being the youngest of 15 children, emigrated to the Americas with a guardian when he was just 15 years of age in 1738 by way of Rotterdam. He was on the ship "Two Sisters" landing in Philadelphia on Sep 9, 1738. He originally settled in Lancaster Co., PA, but soon moved to what is now Carroll Co., MD to be with a brother. He was probably amongst the large Quaker movement that migrated from Maryland to NC between 1750 and 1760.

He lived the rest of his life in NC on a branch of the Yadkin River called the Uwharrie. There was flooding in NC soon after arriving. This flooding repeated itself most summers and eventually drove many persons to move to Ohio and states further west. In this story handed down by his family, he swam the swollen river to to release his horse and mules tied onto the other side. He hid in the branches of a Persimmon tree until morning. His homestead became known as Hoover Hill. It became the site of a post office that was in service into the 1900's. Gold was also discovered on the property and it was the site of a profitable gold mine for many years.

Almost all of his sons and succeeding generations lived within a five mile radius of Andrew's orginal homestead in North Carolina. The property remained in the family for over 150 years.

He was in his later middle aged years when the Revolution broke out and a Quaker at the time. He contributed five hundred dollars to the cause and his grist mill helped supply the war efforts, for which his descendants may become daughters and sons of the American Revolution. Andreas and his wife are buried at the old Hoover Mast Burial Ground, currently located on the property of the Tabernacle Methodist Church. (C-2176, 2179b,c) 
HOOVER, Andrew (I7738)
 
312 Ann and her husband are buried in Union Cemetery, Miami Co., Ohio. Her cemetery stone says she was born Mar. 18, 1781 and died Sep. 11, 1870. However, it also states she was 89 years, 5 months, and 12 days old. This would make her birth date be Mar 29, 1781 instead. Which is correct is not known. (C-1430, 1446) COPPOCK, Ann (I4746)
 
313 Ann and Joel Bayley were listed in the closest kin's column when they attended the marriage of her sister, Miriam Short White to Aaron Coppock in 1704. (E) SHORT, Ann (I4275)
 
314 Ann appears to have moved to Salem MM from Upper Springfield MM on a certificate dated the 4mo 26th day 1845. She went from Upper Springfield MM to Salem MM on 4/25/1845. She then moved with her children, Levi, and Maria to Salem MM, IA on 8/21/1850. She went to New Garden MM on 4/27/1860. She was disowned on 1/24/1863 from the Upper Springfield MM in Iowa, a few years after 2 of her sons participated in John Brown's raid. She had married again before they joined the movement. (C-95)

Ann is listed as a woman of intelligence, and a strong abolitionist. It is likely her influence that had her eldest sons, Edwin and Barclay join John Brown's raid of Harper's Ferry. After her sons received word that John Brown wanted them to join him, she is quoted as saying, "I believe you are going with old Brown. When you get the halters around your necks, will you think of me?" Though she believed in the cause, she strongly apposed them joining the fight. (C-744)

She lost each of her children one by one, three of them died under age 25 from disease. Two of her sons died in the cause of fighting slavery. Only one remaining child who made it to adulthood, Joseph L. Coppoc, left a large family to carry on the name. He enlisted in the Union Army and rose to the rank of major. He was for many years a minister in the Baptist Church. His contribution to the Midland monthly of September, 1895, entitled "John Brown and His Cause" is a spirited defense and eulogy of Brown. He died at Chambers, Nebraska, in 1914. (C-2246) 
LYNCH, Ann (I3516)
 
315 Ann died of lung fever. (C-1613) COATES, Ann Eliza (I5863)
 
316 Ann had a brother named Thomas Staindridge. He is listed as her brother when he left 10 pounds to Ann's child, "Susanna (A) Witham, daughter of Anne Witham" by Anne's marriage to Robert Witham in his will dated 5d, 11m 1670. This 10 pounds was referred to when Anne remarried on 1d, 3m, 1672 according to her marriage bond. Anne is listed as the widow to Roberth Witham in this bond. Anne's estate was inventoried the 10th month (Feb.) 11, 1709/10 shortly after her husband's death. (C-199) Richard Eugene Wilson produced a 2 volume set on the Wilson family.

Susan Coate Wassem provided a photo copy of Esquire Thomas Staindridge's will to verify that Anne's last name was Stainridge before she married a Witham. Anne also received three eleventh's of her brother's estate after all debts were cleared. 
HOAG (HOGE), Ann (I1236)
 
317 Ann had likely either died before 1720 or moved because she was not a witness at her sister Mary's wedding. COATE, Ann (I4208)
 
318 Ann is listed in her father's will as the wife of Dr. John Stansby. Her marriage to Dr. John Stansby, apparently was against direct orders from her father, and she was left only 12 pence in his will. The executors of Richard's estate would not pay Dr. John Stansby's bill as attending physician to Richard and John sued the estate. WELLS, Ann (I2924)
 
319 Ann is probably the Ann that attended the marriage of Joseph Longstreth and Susannah Morris in 1774 in the Abbington M.M. along with her father, Jonathan. Ann, under her maiden name, was granted a certificate to Bradford MM from Kennett Monthly Meeting, PA on May 14, 1789. That was a month after her sisters had moved to Gunpowder Monthly Meeting. (C-2153) She might be the Ann Coats who married Zebulon Weathers on 16 Nov. 1786 in Baltimore Co., Maryland. COATES, Ann (I5909)
 
320 Ann lived in Drumgore in Seagoe Parish, Armagh, Ireland. She is buried at the New Ark Monthly Meeting in Delaware. (C-956, 1448) CALVERT, Ann (I650)
 
321 Ann was a witness at the wedding of Joseph Brinton and Mary Pierce at Concord in 1711. Ann's husband, Thomas Speakman, had a short career as a Minister of Friends. She received letters of administration for his estate in Oct. 1732. (C-437) UA Record #:2344 HARRY, Ann (I2108)
 
322 Ann was the widow of James Wakefield at the time she married James Clark. UNKNOWN, Ann (I855)
 
323 Ann wrote her will in 1818, not quite 7 years before her death. In it, she only named her children, Elizabeth Owens and Lewis W. Duvall. Witnesses were Ephraim Etchison and Samuel Welsh, Sr. It is not known how Samuel is related, but it is suspected that he might be her brother. A Samuel Welsh lived in Montgomery Co., MD and witnessed the sale of land by John Ward to Henry Griffith on Oct. 16, 1779. (CL-707) WELSH, Anne * (I10492)
 
324 Anna and her husband lived in Montgomery Co., Ohio DANNER, Anna (I8153)
 
325 Anna lived in house 36 next door to house 35 that had Toder Dudik's family living there. Her likely sister Maria married a nephew of Toder. BOGDAN, Anna (I13041)
 
326 Anna was lured to America's promise at age 17 in 1903. She arrived on Mar. 12, 1903 according to Ellis Island records. She was Slovak from Turduka, Hungary. It was supposedly a parish in Austria Hungary on the Russian border that sounded like Ungar or Uzarag. Her passage was paid by her step brother of unknown name. She was going to stay with her brother ( ) Mahla? in Vasfield, Massachusetts. She found the first years difficult, but met and married her husband, George Vosick, by 1910. It might be important to note that she began dating George Vosick in this country because she knew the Vosick family from near her home in Europe. She met him working in the same cigar factory that she worked in, and because she knew his family in the old country, they started dating. It is interesting that the passengers she is listed directly after are a Joseph Hershkowitz, age 22, who was Jewish from Jassy, Romania who was going to stay with his brother-in-law, David Rosner in New York. The Hershovics married into the Dudick family also. Anna lived to be at least 103 years old and was a member of the St. Eulalia Roman Catholic Church. She was living at Coudersport, PA on her 103rd birthday. (D-164, 165) Her social security number was 160-50-1204. Anna possibly returned to the old country: Anna Velcsik, age 25, married, ethnicity: Hung, Slovak, residence: Gezseny, Hungary, arriving at Ellis Island on October 01, 1912, on the ship, Kronprinzessin Cecilie embarking from Bremen, Germany though in her 103 birthday party news article in the Times Herald is says she never had a chance to return to the old country - that she had simply been able to send her sister Mary a ticket to come to the U.S. JURIK, Anna (I2019)
 
327 Anna was the niece of Thomas Cranmer through her mother. Thomas was the Archbishop of Canterbury who was burned at the stake in Oxford on Mar. 21, 1555/6. (F-533) CARTWRIGHT, Anna (I14111)
 
328 Anne is listed as the daughter of William and Elizabeth Jay in Medlin's "Quakers of SC and Georgia." (C-265) She is listed 9th in her father's will. Anna was left to raise seven children when her husband John died. She brought them to Miami Co., Ohio before 1809. Anna Jay Coppock bound her son, Layton, apparently as an indentured servant or apprentice in 1826 to Henry Coate of Miami Co., Ohio. Deed Bk.5, p. 614. (C-955, E)

Her birth date and death dates are listed with 7 year differences, indicating to me that her birth date was calculated from her death date. One set of birth and death dates for her are Apr 25, 1765 in Newberry Co., SC and Apr 9, 1821 in Miami Co., Ohio Another set are May 5, 1772 and Apr 9, 1828 in Miami Co., Ohio. I do not know which is correct at this point, though the 1772 date more closely puts her into the 9th child position in her father's will. (C-2109)

335 Archibald was married at least 2 times that we know of and probably 3. There is some evidence that he married both Ann and Sarah Benton. By 1850, he is living in Guernsey Co., Ohio with a wife named Rebecca, and daughters, Margaret, age 17, and Susannah, age 15. Living in the same household is Martin V. B. Benton, age 13; Thom. H. Benton, age 11; and Taylor D. Benton, age 7 not to mention others. SHIPLEY, Archibald (I10477)
 
336 Armilla and her husband were having children in Iredell Co., NC from 1786-1805. (CL-489) THARP, Armeila (I3422)
 
337 Arnulph's name has been found listed as Arnold I, the Great and the Old of Flanders. His wife's name can be spelled Alisa/Athele, and Alix of Vermadois also. Arnulph reigned from 918 to 950. In 950 he abdicated the throne to his son Baldwin III. When Baldwin preceded him in death, he again took the throne until 965 when he abdicated to his "kinsman" Arnulph II. (C-1383, 1387) COUNT OF FLANDERS, Arnulph I (I2552)
 
338 Arthur is the son of a Harriet Dimmick in the 1900 census records for Marshall Co., WV. He is listed as a surviving brother of Ephraim Dimmack in Ephraim's 1944 obituary. His residence at the time was listed as Washington, Pennsylvania. DIMMACK, Arthur (I9997)

In it he names eldest son John; Elizabeth, Sarah and Margeret Underwood, his daughters-in-law; wife Margaret as executor and Friend William Underwood as one of the Overseers on Jan. 16, 1652. (C-2403) It is transcribed herein from The William and Mary College Quarterly, Vol. 7, No. 4, P. 205-249: Will of Capt. John Vpton, dated 16 Jan., 1651 -- proved Dec. 16, 1652: "I, Capt.

346 At Ancestry, my mother's descent to James Glenn is supported by a DNA Circle that relates 5 participants all back to this same James Glenn and inter-relates them to various members in the group. In it 3 of the members descend from this James Glenn and all are related to each other through DNA. This is called triangulation and proves that we descend from James Glenn genetically: M.C., JClark2d, and w_woods57. A second triagulation in this group again is proof and that is between M.C., JClark2d and terkamazis. James Glenn "was a farmer and cabinet maker. His home, west of (Glenn) Cemetery (near Vinton), was a 'weigh station' for the 'underground railroad.' James was amongst a small group of families that emigrated from Virginia and helped found Huntington Twp. in Gallia Co., Ohio. A religious man, he was instrumental in starting the first Presbyterian Church of Huntington and Raccoon in 1829, serving as Ruling Elder and Clerk." (CL-149) He was known as Uncle Jimmy to his nieces and nephews. (CL-453)

James paid taxes on his chattel in the 1827 tax lists for Huntington Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio (CL-499, 587) He was involved in several land transactions after that date. On Feb 3, 1831, Andrew Y. Glenn and his wife, Margaret, sold 30 acres of land on the west side of the northwest quarter of Section 25, Twp.7, Range 16 from lands he bought at Chillicothe, Ohio to James Glenn (his brother) for 200 hundred dollars. (CL-DOC, V. 12, p. 147) On Nov. 23, 1833, John B. Poindexter sold land in Range 16, Twp. 7 & part of Section 25 &26 bordering on Raccoon Creek for $275.00 to James. Both of these properties are listed as in his possession in the 1874 Gallia Co., Ohio Atlas. (V. 12, p. 146) (CL-523, 590) On Sep 6, 1834, James Glenn & Polly, his wife, sold Andrew Y. Glenn a section of the northeast corner of the north west quarter of Section 25 in Twp. 7,, Range 16 for 96 dollars. It abutted Raccoon Creek. (CL-524, V. 12, p. 653) The last record found was on Mar 2, 1864 between James Glenn and his son, Milton K. Glenn. Milton bought ten acres of land from his father for $200.00 in Huntington Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio that was part of the northeast quarter of Section 20. (CL-537, Vol. 33, p. 585) The 1880 Ohio census record, pg. 425D, Huntington Twp., Gallia Co., Oh, says that he was born in Virginia in 1792 as were his parents. His wife was born in Pennsylvania as were her parents. She was 67 and he was 88 in this 1880 census. (CL-229)

According to readings of his cemetery stone, he died on Jan 11, 1886, age 93 yrs, 9 months and 19 days. This would make his birth date to be Mar 23, 1792 - and needs rechecking as it doesn't match previous information on his day of birth.

James was married to all three of the above women. Two of them are verified by their gravestones in Glenn Cemetery. His last two wives names can be verified in the administration of James Glenn's will. His first wife's nickname, Polly, is on her gravestone. She is listed as Mary in the 1850 and 1860 census. His marriage to his first wife, Mary (Polly) Tharp was the first marriage that occurred after Huntington Twp. was formed from Raccoon Twp. in 1810. She was the mother of all his children. (CL-411) A transcription of his second marriage follows: "James Glenn and Mary M. Hartsook: The State of Ohio Gallia County (...) I do hereby certify that on the 22nd day of December AD 1863 by (venture) of License issued by the Judge of the Probate Court of said county. I joined in marriage James Glenn and Mary M Hartsook Given under my hand the 29th day of December in the year 1863. H.R. How M.V.D." (CL-181)

The following will of James Glenn is from the Gallia Co. Courthouse. It is being transcribed with original spelling and punctuation retained by Linda Coate Dudick. "In the name of the Benevolent Father of All I James Glenn of the County of Gallia and the State of Ohio being of sound mind and memory and in lieu of the uncertainty of life and the certainty of death do make and publish this my last will and testament in the manner and following that is to say First It is my will that out of my personal Estate all my Just debts, funeral expenses, cost of administration and the (bequest) hereafter mentioned shall be fully paid Second It is further my will that in addition to what I have heretofore given to my daughter Electa J Radekin I hereby give and bequeath to her ten dollars to be paid to her out of my personal Estate it being in full all that I ever intended to give her Three It is further my will that in addition to what I have heretofore giving to my daughter Terza She(ron) I hereby give and bequeath to her the sum of forty dollars to be paid out of my personal Estate it in full of all that I ever intended to give Fourth It is further my will that ( ) heretofor giving my daughter Eliza J.

P P Porter Benj (Martin) (CL-154) APPLICATION TO PROBATE WILL In the Probate Court of Gallia County, Ohio. James Glenn Deceased. And now comes Milton K. Glenn and produces for admission to Probate in said Court, the Last Will and Testament and the Codicil thereto of James Glenn late a resident of the Township of Huntington in said County, who died on the 11th day of January A.D. 1886. Said Will was not deposited during the lifetime of the Testator, in the office of the Judge of the Probate Curt of said County, for safe-keeping, as allowed by law. Said Testator died leaving Mary Glenn his widow and the following persons all his next of kin resident in the State of Ohio. Eliza Jane Clark, daughter, P.O. Box Rio Grande, O; Electa Radikin, daughter, Rio Grande, O; M.K. Glenn, son, Vinton, O; Curtis Davis, Grandson, Vinton, O; Rathsheba Dyer, Granddaughter, Vinton, O; Mary (Viers), Granddaughter, Vinton, O; William G (D)avis, Grandson, Bulaville, O; Terza (Turkle), Granddaughter, Bulaville, O.

Sworn to before me and subscribed in my presence this 21 day of January A.D. 1886 John J. Thomas Probate Judge. (CL-153)

The administration of James Glenn's will gives us clues as to the married names of his unknown daughters as the following grandchildren are listed as living relatives: Grandsons, Curtis Davis, William G. (Davis) and Granddaughters, Rathsheba Dye(r), Mary Vie(r)s, and (Terza) Quickle. (CL-154,155,453) Unknown or additional Glenn children might prove to be any of the following Glenn's located in records about Gallia County. Elizabeth Mahala Jane Glenn, died July 5, 1831, aged 7 years, 8 months, 19 days (buried near likely grandparents, William and Ann Curry Glenn). (From her age, she is either James or brother George's daughter.) Born in 1823, she has the exact same tree symbol carved on her stone as her possible brother, James Carlille Glenn, son of James Glenn. Polly Ann Glenn, died Feb 2, 1837, aged 15 years 4 months and 12 days. She is buried near her grandparents, William and Ann Glenn in the center of Glenn Cemetery, as all their grandchildren that died as children seem to be. There is a tree symbol on her cemetery stone, like several other suspected children of this James and Polly Glenn. Franklin J. Glenn & Samantha had a d. Ella in 1869. George W. Glenn married to Jane J. Tyler who had a son Edmore F. in 1870. (I personally believe these last two are a generation after his children and are either grandsons or gr. nephews).

347 At Ancestry, my mother's descent to Mary Tharp is supported by a DNA Circle that relates 5 participants all back to this same Mary Tharp and inter-relates them to various members in the group. This is evidence that we descend genetically through this James Glenn. Mary is listed as Mary in the 1850 and 1860 census and Polly on her gravestone. As Polly was a nickname for many women's names including Mary, I am assuming that her original name was Mary. It was common for the Tharp line to name their daughters Mary and call them Polly. (CL-308) About the same time as our Mary, there were the following Tharps in Gallia Co., Ohio: 1820 Census: Abel (Raccoon Twp.) who married Polly Bruno on Sept 7, 1820; Zaus, Jane Tharp who married William Blagg on Sept 14, 1817, Jesse who married Nancy Stephens on Dec. 30, 1819, and John Tharp (Perry Twp.) who married Harriet Souls on Feb. 3, 1828. Zaus was born in 1804 in Gallia Co, Ohio. He married Mrs. Rachel Calfrey. They moved to Boone Co., Indiana and then Grundy Co., MO. He died there on Sep. 8, 1885. (CL-399) By 1830, the Gallia Co., Ohio census only lists a John Tharp in Spring...Twp. Joseph and his son Abel moved to Tippacanoe Co., IN in 1830. William Tharp is in Tippacone Co., IN by 1840. Zaus is in Boone Co., IN by then also. From the migration pattern through Gallia county, I believe they are likely to be father and brothers of our Mary Polly Tharp. Zaus (also known as Isaias after Joseph's brother?, Esaes or Isaac (after Joseph's brother?) named one of his daughters Mary Polly Tharp. (CL-425, 448) THARP, Mary (Polly) * (I72)
 
348 At least one source says she married first to a John Hollingsworth, but this is thought to be a mix-up that comes from misinformation in Summers book. WRIGHT, Rachel (I1371)
 
349 At the 1859 renunion in Indiana, she and her husband, their sons and daughters with their spouses and children totalled 28 members with 3 deceased. According to her 1880 census record, she was born in Ohio and her parents were born in South Carolina. COATS, Charity (I10590)
 
350 At the time of her death, she had been ill for a long time. The newspaper headline on Dec 5, 1902 stated "Suicide at Lincoln...Mrs. Margaret Danner Hangs Herself on Account of Ill Health." (CL-454) BENNET, Margaret Jane (I1602)
