4151 Thomas might be the first born son of Samuel. He was only listed as the executor if his mother died or remarried and was not listed in birth order in his father's will. He, however, died shortly after his father. His will is transcribeollows. "Hyatt, Thomas, 27 Oct 1683, RB6/10, p. 284 Bros Samuel Forte and James Cole and sis Mary Hyatt - Xtrs and to pay debts and legacies of my fa Samuel Hyatt decd. signed Thomas Hyatt. Wit: Christopher Cole, Bonham Carter, James Coates Proved 12 Jan 1684/5" HIAT, Thomas (I2042)
 
4152 Thomas might have been Richard Dennis Penrose instead who was married to Sarah Coats. PENROSE, Thomas (I9417)
 
4153 Thomas moved to Tennessee about the same time his brothers went to South Carolina, in the 1770's. Williams gives his death date as 1808 in Jefferson Co., TN. Mary Frazier Reed gives his location as originally from PA, but of Stawberry, Jefferson Co., TN. (C-1543, 2053) COPPOCK, Thomas (I15857)
 
4154 Thomas moved to the East side of Guilford, now known as Madison, soon after marrying where he erected a log cabin. It was situated just North or behind what was known as the "Dowd" house in 1885. It would currently be located on Liberty. (F-496) DOUDE, Thomas (I12088)
 
4155 Thomas ran a school in his home in Phoenixville, Chester Co., Pennsylvania. He died an invalid at an elderly age under the care of his daughter Sarah. COATES, Thomas (I7722)
 
4156 Thomas Stockett immigrated to Anne Arundel Co., Maryland in 1658 with his brothers, Francis and Henry. Their elder brother, Lewis Stockett joined them in 1664. They were from Kent(shire), England. They had apparently been from the strictethful followers of Charles I and II. When Charles II was exiled, they mortgaged their property and followed him. At their return, they had no money to redeem their mortgage. They immigrated to America to get a new start. There they received grants of land from the newly restored Calvert government located near the Susquehann River in Harford County, MD. Thomas obtained a patent for land called "Bourne." Brother Henry's was called "Rapalta" and Dr. Francis Stockett's was " Delph" and "Delph Island".

It is thought that these Stockett sons are the children of Thomas and Frances Aylesworth Stockett II of Canterbury, England. This Thomas and Frances were first cousins. They also were grandchildren of a Lewis Stockett who "was a member of the household of Queen Elizabeth I." (C-575)

Thomas Stocket held many highly respected positions in his Maryland home. He served in the Lower House at St. Marys on April 17, 1661 in Maryland and continued as a delegate through 1666. He was a Justice of Baltimore Co. from 1661-1668. In 1668 he was appointed High Sheriff of Anne Arundel Co, to which he and his brothers Henry and Francis then moved. They purchased land located on a stream adjacent to the Patuxent River they named "Stockett's Run.

Thomas, himself, owned 400 acres in Baltimore Co. and 664 acres called "Obligation" north of Arundel Manor which was on the south/east of "Stocket's Run". (Surveyed Jul. 19, 1669) He held the title of Deputy Surveyor General (1670-1671), Captain, and High Sheriff at the time of his death in 1671. (C-575) His other two brothers remained on Stockett's Run and died in residence there. The Coat of Arms they used in Maryland was "a lion rampant, sa. on a chief of the last, tower triple towred, ar. between two bezants."

One of his "indentured servants", George Aslop, published early historical and geographical accounts of Maryland life. In his writings, he mentioned the kind treatment he received from Capt. Thomas Stockett and the abundance in the Stockett Mansion. (C-650) 
STOCKETT, Capt. Thomas (I12927)
 
4157 Thomas succeeded his father in 1388. (F-399) DE WILBURGHAM, Thomas (I12770)
 
4158 Thomas W. Furnas was one of the family members of this surname who emigrated from Newberry, SC to Miami Co., Ohio He was the sheriff in Miami County, Ohio on multiple occasions. His son Robert went to Nebraska where he became governor.6) FURNAS, Thomas Wilkinson (I13775)
 
4159 Thomas was a member of the Provincial Assembly. He helped organize the Center MM in 1687. He married his second wife at the home of her stepfather, Nathaniel Park. He is in the Quaker records when his sister Mary was about to marry her. He paid 4 pounds to his sister for the care of her children. She is return gave him a mare whose increase were to further the support of her children. This was required in the case of a second marriage where children were involved. (C-956)

Thomas purchased land in Cecil Co., Maryland known as "Jacob's Adventure" in 1713 but never lived on it. He willed this land to son Jacob on the 10th month, 30 day of 1725. Jacob sold this land in 1788. Thomas also sold 400 acres to John Tho
mson in New Castle Co., PA on Jan. 18, 1725. (C-956)

According to the book "Hopewell Friends History, 1734-1934", Thomas was killed by a bison near North Mountain, VA in 1733 when visiting his son Abraham. This has been discerned to be in error as far as date goes. He died at the age of 66 and is buried in the Center MM Friends Burial Ground in Christiana Hundred which is now a part of Delaware. (C-956)

The transcription of his will is as follows: Chris. Hd. Oct. 30, 1725. Apr. 13, 1727. South Carolina. I.186. Wife, Grace; sons, Abraham, Thomas, Jacob, and Joseph.; dau., Elizabeth Strode; dau., Hannah Dixson; dau. Sarah Discon, Grace Hollingwroth, William and Litisher Obery. Exc. wife, Grace Hollingsworth; son, Thomas Hollingsworth. (C-234) 
HOLLINGSWORTH, Thomas (I15458)
 
4160 Thomas was a neighbor of his Uncle Captain Cornelius Howard. He inherited his plantation "Mt. Airy Neck" from his father. His wife's will proves that it's their daughter Mary who married the son of Captain Cornelius Howard named Corneliurd Jr. He left a will in 1724 in Balto Co., MD, vol. 18, pg. 350. Colonial Families in the Southern States has this to say about him: "[p.255] COL. THOMAS HAMMOND, (2--1), d. 1724 of Anne Arundel, Cecil and Baltimore Co.'s, Md., prominent .in religious and public affairs; his will is recorded at the Baltimore Courthouse; he m. (first) Rebecca (Larkin) Lightfoot, Lady Lightfoot, wid. of Thomas Light-foot, and dau. of John Larkin, of Anne Arundel Co., Md.; (second) Mary Heath, dau. of Thomas Heath." HAMMOND, Thomas (I5657)
 
4161 Thomas was a Quaker minister for 25 years when he died while ministering on a trip to Carolina in Sept. of 1753. He took ill shortly after departing and was taken care of in Pipe Creek, MD. He was buried there at Forquer's burying place956) To quote his Quaker eulogy, he was "greatly missed in the meeting to which he belonged, as well as in his family, and the neighborhood where he dwelt." Through his son Amor, the Hollingsworth and Whitney Paper Co. was formed which is now a part of the Scott Paper Co. (C-2251k) HOLLINGSWORTH, Thomas (I15580)
 
4162 Thomas was granted leave to go marry Priscilla Smith on the 12mo, 23d, 1693 from his Philadelphia Monthly Meeting. He apparently had a disagreement with a Daniel Pegg (his niece's in-law relative) in Philadelphia and his Quaker Brethren wquesting a meeting to discuss it at Samuel Carpenters home the next day after the monthly meeting at their new "Meeting House" in Philadelphia on the 12 month, the 23th day of 1699. This had started in 1698. He was again having a disagreement in July of 1702 with a Joseph Cooper in the Philadelphia M.M. records. Note that Thomas's name was almost always spelled Sisam in Quaker records. SISAM, Thomas (I6876)
 
4163 Thomas was listed as a "collier" or coal dealer when his daughter Ellen was baptized. (C-1364) MASON, Thomas (I12486)
 
4164 Thomas was living as late as 1317. His coat of arms included a lion rampant, gules, forked tail, collared arg. All of his siblings have the same estimated birth date as him in United Ancestries, CD-100. (F-511, 599) I have seen two dit spouses listed for him, so I'm guessing that he married twice. MALLORY, Sir Thomas (I7925)
 
4165 Thomas was named Knight of the Bath at Anne Boleyn's coronation. She was the first cousin to his wife. However he was later convicted of conspiring with Edward, Duke of Somerset, to murder John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland for whichs beheaded. His family's estate was confiscated by the King. ARUNDEL, Thomas (I8087)
 
4166 Thomas was suppose to have received 50 acres of land in Talbot County from his father after his mother died, in William's will dated 1735. However, by the time father William died in 1752 and his wife was already deceased, this 50 acrears to have gone to son John instead. The circumstances invoking this change are unknown as neither Thomas nor John lived in Talbot Co., Maryland in 1754 when the will was probated or after.

Even though Thomas married in Queen Anne's Co., MD in 1732 and 1749, he appears on the tax lists of Talbot Co., Tuckahoe Hundred in 1733 and in the militia of Talbot Co. in 1748. Unless this Thomas is confused with another in Queen Anne's Co, MD, it is not certain when he moved elsewhere in Maryland. 
THARP, Thomas (I13508)
 
4167 Thomas was the Dean of Chester. He became the progenitor of the Virginia Mallorys. His children were: William who was knighted in 1642 and died without issue, Thomas, the Reverend; and George, Curate of Mobberley. (F-628) His grandsv. John Holdsworth Mallory was granted in 1663 a Coat of Arms and Crest of a canton az. This is the only Coat of Arms listed for the Chester Branch of Mallorys listed in the "General Armory of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales." There appear to be about 5 different types of Coats of Arms for the families bearing the name Mallory but this is the only one for the familial line living in Chester. MALLORY, Thomas Dean Of Chester (I7816)
 
4168 Thomas was the Duke of Gloucester. He was murdered in 1397. (C-330, 785) OF WOODSTOCK, Thomas Duke of Gloucester (I12722)
 
4169 Thomas was the Knight of the Garter, Baron of Wake and Woodstock. He served under his Stepfather, Edward, Black Prince of Wales in France and distinguished himself in the battle of Castile. Under King Richard II, his half-brother, he wasll of England. (C-437, p. 583)

The following information on Thomas was provided by Keith Cox via email in the year 2000. "Edmund's father Thomas was the Keeper of the New Forest in which Brockenhurst lays from 1377 till his death in 1397. He was granted the manor of Brockenhurst by the King in 1388, he would of held the manor of Lyndhurst (3 miles to the North of Brockenhurst) as part of his job of keeper of the New Forest. Presumably on the death of John de Foxley who was Keeper of the New Forest, before Thomas Holand, and who also held Brockenhurst on a ten year grant from 1373, Brockenhurst again came under the jurisdiction of the Keeper on the Forest by default, the grant made in1388, allowing the Thomas Holand to take the profits of Brockenhurst manor." (E) 
HOLLAND, Thomas Earl Of Kent II (I12747)
 
4170 Thomas was the original immigrant to come to America in this line in 1667 from England. He gained passage from William Stanley who received 250 acres headrights for transporting him. Thomas Plummer received 100 acres of land "Bridge Hillm his brother-in-law, Thomas Stockett on May 20, 1676. On July 28, 1686, his wife's uncle, Dr. Francis Stockett, purchased 64 acres, part of "Deden," adjacent to "Bridge Hill". By Dec. 15, 1686, he owned a tract called "Level Addition" surveyed by his step-father, George Yate. It was on the west side of the Susquehanna River. He purchased two other tracks that were part of Prince George's Co. when is was separated from Calvert in 1696: "Seaman's Delight" and "Scotts Lot". He wrote his will in 1694 in which he calls himself a religious man. His religious affiliations have not been found. His will lists wife Elizabeth, children: Thomas, Margaret, Mary, Susannah, and Elizabeth. Witnesses were Capt. Henry, Elizabeth and Jos. Hanslap and Edw. Brucebank. It is signed Eliz. Plummer, ex. of the last will & testament of Thomas Plummer, late of Anne Arundel Co., deceased. To quote a more exact translation from Vivian Markley, it was as follows: Plummer, Thomas,A. A.

4171 Thomas was willed wearing apparel by his father in 1761. (C-1977) His own will is in the Chester Co. PA wills (abstracts 1713 - 1825), Dated 16 Dec 1792. It was proven on Nov 1, 1797.

4172 Thomas Wood who lived in the Backwater area of Isle of Wight/Surry County area of Virginia is the son of Arthur and Sarah Wood as per the will of Sarah's second husband below. In 1669, Thomas Wood, "son of Arthur Wood, and Sarah Wooten hher, relict of Arthur deceased," deeded Richard Bennett land. The deed mentions "Richard Bennett of Blackwater, (Virginia)."

Sarah, Arthur's wife married Thomas Wooten sometime after 1646. Thomas Wooten's passage had been paid for by John Pawley because Thomas Wooten was a surgeon and brought to the now historic colony of Jamestown to provide this service. Thomas held the rank of Surgeon General at the colony of Jamestown. John Pawley took out his patent near the head of Lawnes Creek south of James River which was where the Isle of Wight and James City Counties met at the time which again is neighboring territory to Blackwater.

About 1640, William Trodloder deeded 150 acres to Thomas Watton and this likely was where Sarah lived with her second husband.A deed was made the 14th day of January Anno Domini 1668 between Thomas Wood Sonne of Arthur Wood and Sarah Wooton, his mother and Relict of Arthur Wood decsd of the one part and Richard Bennett of Blackwater of the other part... by these presents for ever pass over unto him the said Richard Bennett his Heirs Extrs Adms and Assigns for ever, A certain parcel of Land containing One Hundred Acres...Beginning upon the Mouth of the South Branch and soe runing along the Branch to a marked pine, and from the said marked pine to __?__ into Tho.

4173 Thomas Wotten was brought to our historic Jamestown as a surgeon and received the rank of Surgeon General for that colony. He was one of the group of men who settled Jamestown in 1607 according to www.historicjamestown.org: ..."Jamestowuded Thomas Wotton, Surgeon General at Jamestown, Thomas Couper, barber, and William Wilkerson, chirurgeon, who arrived in 1607."

WOTTON, Thomas (I9881)
 
4174 Thomas' closet relative in our YDNA project at FTDNA is Gentleman John of Newberry, SC. The most likely explanation for this relationship is that Thomas and Gentleman John are brothers. COATE, Thomas (I2643)
 
4175 Thomas's dates seem a bit doubtful but still possible as he had had 3 children before he died at age 22. STOCKETT, Thomas (I13234)
 
4176 Thomas's estate was being administered by his son Jonathan, but Jonathan died before completing the process. Here is a transcription of these records from http://dunhamwilcox.net/wills/cornwall_thomas1702.htm. "CORNWALL, Thomas,etown. Died November, 1702. Invt. CORNWALL, Thomas (I12004)
 
4177 Thomas, as a younger son, did very well for himself in his marriage to the heiress of Tamworth Castle. (F-520) FERRARS, Thomas (I13322)
 
4178 Thomasine Forte is named in a Augustin Dry's will at about age 12. Her father is listed as a friend and some of her siblings are listed as Executor's for this married man's will in 1692. He was married to a Margaret Franck. FORTE, Thomasine (I16423)
 
4179 Though attributed to him, he is not the James Coate who dies on Nov. 7, 1817. That James was the son of Gentleman John Coate and his will was probated on that date. Notley deeded his land to James Coates and Henry Head in 1804 in ChesterC Deed Book M, p. 331-335. It is difficult to read, but it looks like when the deed was filed for James Coates purchase on Oct. 22, 1806, Notley was listed as Notley, late... indicating death. (C-912, 1780) James Coats (brother or son of Notley) and Notley's wife were the executors of his will. (C-1716) COATE, James (I1262)
 
4180 Though born in Pennsylvania, in 1933 she was residing where her parents came from, in Nevczke, Czechoslovakia according to her father's petition for citizenship. Her niece, Mary Opalenick Fabrizio never met her, but was told she stayed inzech Republic with her mother. VOVCSIK, Anna (I1905)
 
4181 Though he says he was born in 1888 in his registration card, he is in the 1920 census where he lists his age at 29. KALBRUNNER, George Franklin (I6328)
 
4182 Though he was born in Anne Arundel Co., MD, he grew up in Rock Creek Parish which at that time included Prince George and Frederick Co., Maryland. Parts of Frederick Co. became Montgomery Co., Maryland which could account for the fact thaaised his own children in Montgomery Co., Maryland. He took the Oath of Allegiance in 1778 in Montgomery Co., in front of Magistrate Edward Burgess to verify his patriotism in the Revolutionary War. In the first census of the United States for Frederick Co., Maryland (1790), there were 2 males over age 16, 4 under age 16, 5 females and 6 slaves in his household. (CL-697)

He was sued by Stephen Musgrave. On Nov. 18, 1791, the court decided in Stephen Musgrave's favor and ordered that Lewis' property, "Richardson's Range" be sold at public auction. Thomas Cornelius Howard was the highest bidder. Howard received the land formally on Dec. 26, 1795.

Richard Morgan and his wife, the niece of Lewis Duval, also sued him. The court again went in the favor of Richard. This time he had to sell "Richards Range, Bristol and Rogues Harbour" for the settlement. On June 16, 1798, Isaac Webster received the properties.

In the 1800 census for Montgomery Co., Maryland, he is probably the Lewis Duvall with the following information, although a Lewis Duvall Jr. is also listed which looks like it could be him instead. If he is the Lewis Duvall, he and his wife are over age 45. They have one son under age 10, one son and daughter from age 16-26 and 3 slaves. If he's the Lewis, Jr., he and his wife were over age 45. They had a daughter from age 10-16, one daughter and 2 sons from age 16-26 and 7 slaves.

He appears to sell to his son John on Jun 15, 1815 for $493.00, "Richardson's Range" and "Roque's Harbour". He called himself Lewis Duval, Sr. at the time. His wife, Ann, waived her dower rights.

He died without leaving a will before Sept. 15, 1817 when his estate was probated. Son Philip was named administrator.

4183 Though I can't find a marriage to an Amos Duncan, I do find a Rachel Coats marrying a William Ramsey in 1811 in Miami Co., Ohio. COATE, Rachel (I7831)
 
4184 Though not having any children, they loved cats and had 15 at one point in time. They lived their whole lives in Curwensville, PA and died within a few months of each other. PERILLA, Joseph M. (I8334)
 
4185 Though not likely, he could belong to the following Ellis Island record if he was married to another woman before he married Anna: Gyorgy Volcsik from Hungary, arrived at Ellis on Aug. 15, 1895, age 35 years, married, on the Spree from, Germany. He would be from the right place and time to be this George. (D-202) According to his wife's 103rd birthday newspaper article in the Times Herald, his wife, Anna, was 37 at the time of his death with 7 children to raise alone, suggesting that he died around 1923. According to Ken Anderson, he had left his wife and children previously to his death in the 1930's and went to New York City. This is supported by the fact that a WWII draft registration card shows his living in the Bowery in New York city in 1942 and by the fact that she still lists herself as married in the 1940 census where she is the head of household.

I believe him to also be the George Vovcsik who registered for World War I. He was born in 1890 in Neviczke, Hungary where his father lived. If this is this George, he worked in a bar and lived at 39 Allen St., New York, New York. Max Obstrovsky was his employer at the Bar and Grille at 90 Bowery (St.) in New York. He is the George Dudick from Coudersport, PA who visited relative, (George) Joseph Dudick (his brother-in-law) of Bradford, in October of 1938 according to the Bradford Era. 
VOVCSIK, George (I12401)
 
4186 Though she goes by the name of her mother's first husband, her father was actually Ira Sampson. She learned this from her Aunt Effee in her late teens. In her marriage record, she exagerated her age by 3 years and gave her father's name as Bruce O. Riggs. She said she was 21 as of Aug. 12, 1943. She was a waitress and lived in Coolville, Ohio at the time. «u»«sup»4«/u»«/sup» RIGGS, Nancy Delores (I12)

4195 Transcript of a copy of the christening record for Theresia Rosa Link as translated from the German by Ken Smith: 3/85. Therese Rosa, daughter of Herr Julius Link and his legal wife, Elizabeth Ekstein, born 22 February, 1897ladelphia, Pennsylvania. Baptized 6 June 1897 by the undersigned Christen Merkel. Witness: Rosa Link Seal: St. Matthews Evangelical Lutheran Church at Philadelphia. The seal imprinted on the original document as translated by Matthias Seifert is: German Evangelic Lutheran Mathew Community (of) unaltered Augsburgh(ish) Confession of Philadelphia, 1891. This would have been a very traditional sect at the time as the Augsburgh Confession was the first Lutheran written set of standards presented to the Roman Emperer in 1530. (E, F-109)

Theresia volunteered as a member of the Red Cross Motor Corps during World War II. She died of a brain tumor in her 50's and was greatly missed. She was said to be a very gentle woman who was able to raise a large family without ever raising her voice. She is buried in Lot #381, Section 27 of Calvary Cemetery, in Erie, Pennsylvania.

4197 Two descendants of this man through his daughter Ann Campbell Colquhoun have an average of 10 cM's in common on chrome 16 on MyHeritage with my mother and brother. His lineage is guessed at in multiple places. If he's that closely related to my family, I am theorizing that he is descended from William Campbell Colquhoun with his daughter being named after William Campbell Colquhoun.

Dunbartonshire where his theorized father is from is only 14 miles from Edinborough where he was born as per birth record. His year of birth is as estimated.

4198 Two of Henry's wives were sisters. There names are verified in deed records in Newberry Co., South Carolina. Betsy signed her name on them when Henry sold land in 1805. Polly signed her name on them when Henry sold land from 1808 onwe had apparently posted a 1000 dollar bond for Betsy's father, and when she died, it almost appears that Mr. Long was obligated to give another daughter to Henry as a wife. Both Henry, his wives and all his children were apparently Quakers as they are listed in Medlin's, [UL:Quaker Families of South Colina and Georgia:UL].

It is entirely possible that Henry was married to a Mary previous to these two Long sisters. I say this because a Henry Coate purchased land in 1793 next to "Little" John Coate on Scotts Creek and he had a wife listed as Mary when he sold that same land in 1794. Currently though, it is expected that the Henry Coate who married Mary was the one in the SC area married to Mary "Molly" Pitts. (C-1895a-d, 2234, 2296)

Henry was the second postmaster for the District of Newberry starting on Jan. 3, 1799. The town consisted of only a courthouse, jail, post office, 3 or so homes, a couple taverns and stores at the time. He is in the Newberry Co. court records in 1789 and 1796 as being sued for falsely imprisoning someone, but the case was dropped both times as an unjust accusation (at least that's how I deciphered the strange court wording of the cases, C-1531). He was Sheriff John Speak's deputy elected about Dec. of 1800. The deputy conducted most of the business of the Sheriff's office and was a highly respected citizen. As such he had the difficult duty of hanging the first convicted horse thief at Newberry, SC, William Tate, alias Tonnyhill in 1802. He was also the deputy of Sheriff Long in 1807. He commanded the Calvary for many years which was originally raised by Craig and Frederick Nance. He was also the derogate of the Ordinary, Samuel Lindsay, Esq. when Lindsay became paralyzed in his right arm and his ability to speak until his resignation in Nov. 1815. (C-1074, 1527)

His marriages were one of the few recorded in the courthouse during this early time period. They are transcribed here from the Old Newberry District Quarterly Vol.4 No. 2 1995 p38-40 via Gary W. Coats of Portland, Oregon.

By 1820, he seems to have fallen out of favor with his in-laws. They brought a suit against him at that point in time. Here is a transcribed copy of another suit brought against him in 1825.

He had some other unusual court transactions before his death, and then died without a will. The Sheriff sold off his estate. It lists quite a number of slaves and land. The items on this list include calico, homespun, combs, sugar, tobacco, and toward the end Rum and Whiskey. He had a walnut coffin made with a raised or raising lid and was buried somewhere in Newberry County. Son John Coates is the only child mentioned in the transaction. (Charlotte Coats Siercks)

According to Summer's Book, "Captain Henry Coate (son of "Little John" ), died January, 1828, and left widow, Polly (Long) Coate, and children Amelia (wife of John Lindsey), Elizabeth (wife of William G. Nance who died just before death of her father), John, James M., George R., Benjamin F., Amanda (she married Benjamin Cochran) William H., and Barbara. Benjamin F. and Amanda Cochran moved to Richmond , Va. Amelia Lindsey was the only child by his firstmarriage to Elizabeth Long. the widow, Polly, afterwards married JohnGaskins, and descendants moved to MS."
