551 Ellen is ia descendant of the Royal House of Tudor and Geoffrey Plantagenet. (C-437) BULKELEY, Elen (I2159)
 
552 Ellis may be the Ellis Pugh who along with Jesse Pugh was the executor of Azariah Pugh's will in 1794 in Newberry Co., South Carolina. (C-933) He also might be the Ellis who was married to a Rachel and filed his certificate of removal at Westland MM, PA when the two moved with a group of Quakers from Bush River MM, SC to Little Miami, Ohio on 9 Mo. 25, 1802. They were received on 12 Mo. 25, 1802 (Christmas Day). If this last applies, he was married at least twice. (C-1297) PUGH, Ellis (I1011)
 
553 Enoch and Elizabeth had one son who died in 1785. They also had at least three daughters, Jane, Rebecca and Mary Austin and possibly an Elizabeth. (F-462, 604) FORTE, Enoch (I1899)
 
554 Enoch attended the wedding of his brother, Nehemiah Underwood, in 1773. (C-2418b) UNDERWOOD, Enoch (I5533)
 
555 Enoch died at age 12 and was buried by the Kennett Monthly Meeting at the Newark Friends Burial Ground. (C-956) HOLLINGSWORTH, Enoch (I703)
 
556 Ephraim was born in Bristol, England according to his death certificate. This turns out to be a slight error in the relative's memory that submitted his death certificate information. Ephraim's birth date according to the 1900 census for Marshall Co., WV was Oct. 1872. In this record he is listed as living with his mother, Harriet Dimmick.

There is also another Ephraim in Wheeling, WV who was born Apr. 1873. His death certificate says he was born in Oct. of 1873, but I believe this is an error because the English census records give his birthdate as 1872 in Bilston, Staffordshire co., England.

His World War I enlistment records give his birthdate as Oct. 8, 1874, making him 44. In the 1830 census, he also lists himself as being age 38 when they married again giving him a birth year of 1873 or 1874. The 1910 census gives him a birthdate of 1874. I suspect that his birthdate given when he was on a young age is more likely to be correct, but that remains to be seen as his adult records indicate that he was born a year or two later.

Ephraim came with his parents from England when he was about eleven years old. They first settled in Wheeling, West Virginia, but he lived the last 40 years of his life in Middletown, Ohio. Ephraim and Albert are listed as brothers in the 1910 Federal Census for Middletown, Ohio. They were living at their father's address in Wheeling, West Virginia in the 1880s. In the 1888 directory Ephraim was living at 39 20th St. and he as yet had no occupation.

He was one of the first rollers at Armco where he worked for 27 years. It was listed as the facility on the east side of Middletown in his draft papers. He then worked with the High School Manual Training Department until his last year of life when he worked as a watchman for Lemneck Products.

In the 1910 census, he was still single. He and Daisy married sometime after 1910. He is listed as having medium height, gray eyes and black hair in his Sep. 12, 1918 World War I Draft registration. That same record shows that he and his wife were living at 110 (710?) Logan St. in Middletown, Ohio at the time. By the 1920 census they lived at 818 Garfield St. in Middletown, Ohio. They never had any children. My father remembers that they were second cousins to him through his grandmother Keturah Dimmack. He has fond memories of them. Ephraim and Daisy's signatures are in my grandfather's funeral book in 1941. The photo of him in a car is likely he and one of his brothers likely taken in the early 1920's according to researcher Troi Nelson.

According to his obituary, he was a member of the Church of the Ascension, and three Masonic lodges, Jefferson Lodge No. 90, F.A.M. and Knights Templar and Scottish Rites. His residence at the time of his death was listed as 1333 Forest Ave., Middletown, Butler Co., Ohio. He was working as a watchman for the Lemneck Plant when he fell ill suddenly, and was rushed to the hospital. He died at Middletown Hospital after a 6 hour stay. (C-DOC) 
DIMMACK, Ephriam Jr. (I6586)
 
557 Esther was born th 12d 10m 1714. Esther was willed the family Bible, "George Fox's Journal", his best feather bed and furniture from her father, Bartholomew in his will written 2/9/1761. Her husband received Bartholomew's plantation of 188 acres and a share of his father-in-law's cloths. He and Bartholomew's other 2 son-in-laws were executors of the will. (C-1304d, 2149) COPPOCK, Esther (I1028)
 
558 Esther was in Will Book I, Iredell Co., North Carolina. She is listed in her will probated 1859 as giving 50 acres to Littleton Hudson for use of his 2 children. If this second hand information in interpreted correctly, it suggests that she never married. She was definitely not married when she purchased 50 acres of her brother, Zadoc's land from his estate disbursement in 1825. THARPE, Ester (I3442)
 
559 Ethelgiva was the unmarried, first Abbess of Shaftesbury Abbey. It should be noted that she is not listed as a daughter of Alfred the Great in the Official Website of the British Monarchy. (C-1387) Ethelgiva (I4676)
 
560 Evan O. Evans enlisted in the Civil War in Company E, 56th Regiment at Portsmouth, Ohio on October 15th, 1861. He "saw hard service during the length of the war". He was with Grant at Champion Hill and other engagements opening the Mississippi. He outlasted all of his brothers and sisters and died at the age of 93. (CL:DOC:"Civil War Veteran Dies") He should not be confused with an Evan O. Evans born in 1809 living in Gallia Co., Ohio. (CL-24) EVANS, Evan O. (I150)
 
561 Even though I was told that her name is Jane Carrigan by Edward Sinker in an email, I've found a couple who married on 11/7/1771 in PA named Jonathan Coates and Jane Stinson that could be this Jane instead. Perhaps this was a second marriage for her and her maiden name was Carrigan and married name was Stinson when she married Jonathan. If so, she and Jonathan moved to Virginia. CARRIGAN, Jane (I5949)
 
562 Even though no baptismal record can be found, it can be surmised that George is a son of Thomas from the administration of George's estate. (C-1364) BAGLEY, George (I4608)
 
563 Even though the Genealogy on Southern Mallories lists Frances as Thomas's wife, a book published on Cheshire, England lists Frances as his daughter. She was bequeathed money in Biship Forster's will. MALLORY, Franaces (I8703)
 
564 Even though there has been no document found proving the parentage of Margaret Swanson, her parents must be Francis Swanson, Jr. and Susannah Plummer. "Swanson's lot" where they lived adjoined the Wells land. There was no other Swanson family in Maryland at the time. (C-575, p.53) CD-ROM 102 gives her an alternate birth date of about 1692 in Md. (C-586) She may or may not be the mother of Rachel Wells. If Rachel Wells birth date and Margaret's marriage to Joseph Wells is as stated then she is not the mother of Rachel Wells. Controversy on the dates leaves this parentage in question. SWANSON, Margaret (I1606)
 
565 Ezekial has no descendants on Gedmatch for me to check DNA with against my Mother as of Mar 23, 2018. COLHOUN, Ezekial (I14910)
 
566 Family Members attending the Quaker wedding of Sarah and Zimri Gaunt included Zebulon Gaunt, John Wright, Isaac Cook, Charity Cook, Joseph Cook, Susanah Holliswroth, Mary Pearson, Mary Thomas, Betty Jay, Hannah (Gaunt) and Hannah Gaunt. COOK, Sarah (I510)
 
567 Family tradition as presented by my Great Aunt Gladys states that Wesley Tobin was a full Irishman and his wife, Mary Ann Danner was Pennsylvania Dutch. (CL-102) (Two of his great-granddaughters, Wanda Getz and Peg, both felt Wesley had some American Indian ancestry. Several members of the family have had his high cheek bones. This is also supported by the fact that the women in this family of the last 4 generations have had dimples in the upper part of their hips again indicating Native American ancestry. ) They met at an Old Brick Inn where she probably worked. Mary Ann Danner's father was born in Pennsylvania.

Wesley had been raised in Monroe Twp., Guernsey Co, Ohio. His birth date is contradictory in second hand sources and census records, being either 1830, 1831, or 1835. His birth place is given as Ohio or Virginia. (CL-102) He moved to Gallia Co. in 1851, married on May 21 or on March 4, 1854 depending on which second hand source is used. He was a merchant, fur dealer, and farmer. The family resided in a log house on their farm on range 34 of Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio. My grandfather, William Edward Clark, was born in this log house. Sometime, thereafter, it burned totally down. According to a great-granddaughter of Wesley, Sophia Clark Liggett, the family then proceeded to clean out the chicken coup and use it for their living quarters. (CL-141)

In the 1874 "Gallia County Ohio Atlas", Wesley lives one section south and west of Adamsville (now Rio Grande, OH), and one section south of Rio Grande College, Twp. 6, Range 16, section 34. (C-590 In the 1870 census for Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., OH, Wesley's property is listed as worth $3700.00 and his personal estate worth $500.00. (CL-305) This is greatly up from the 1860 census which lists both values at $300.00. In the 1880 Raccoon Twp., Gallia Co., Ohio census, he was 45 and a farmer with wife, Mary, age 44, Wesley 22, Mary A. 20, and Lola was age 18. Lola attended school within that year. In the next house, John Tobin, age 24 lived with wife Ellen who was age 15. (CL-231)

Wesley Tobin died of a heart attack and is buried with his family at Old Pine Cemetery at a location next to a fence. He gave a portion of his farm or equivalent funds to each of his children near the time of his death. Ad- ministration records for his farm, seem to suggest that the children received the land before the administration and that they hired someone to work the farm for a period of five years at that time. Wesley's death date is stated as 13 Aug. 1898 in this document, but was actually 1897 when the document is studied in full and his tombstone inscription is noted.

APPLICATION FOR LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION (Transcribed by Linda Coate Dudick) The State of Ohio, Gallia County, in Probate Court. W.B. (Chambers), being duly sworn says that Wesley Tobin late a resident of the Township of Raccoon in said County, died on or about the 13th day of August A.D. 1898; leaving Mary A.

568 Family tradition starting with this Eliza Jane's granddaughter is that Eliza's family came over from England when she was 9 years old in a 3rd class steamer. Eliza had beautiful red hair. The 1900 census says her family emmigrated to this country in 1881. Though she is not living with her family in this 1900 census, I'm estimating her her birthdate was about 1872. HUNTINGTON, Eliza Jane (I10167)
 
569 Farabert renewed the "league with the Germans." (C-1346) KING OF FRANKS, Farabert (I4427)
 
570 Farmer's book gives her surname as Sedgley. One of these surnames is likely a misinterpretation of the handwritten first hand document or a mix-up of the place they lived with their surname. She is also UA Record #:4178 in CD-100. (C-956) Though all sources found so far list her as the daughter of Edward Bagley, it is not certain that she was also the daughter of Olive. BAGLEY, Ann (I2117)
 
571 Fedor and Yosif were twins that died the same day they were born. DUDIK, Fedor (I13080)
 
572 For Agatha's lineage see NEGHR, Vol. 106, p. 52-60. (C-437, p. 589) She was the niece of the Emperor Henry III. (C-685) She was also known as Agatha of Germany and Agatha of Hungary. However, it should be noted that her lineage is still in question and has other possibilities. She is sometimes listed as the daughter of Stephen, but this lineage is now thought to be incorrect. (C-870, 1351) Agatha (I2509)
 
573 For reasons unknown she did not marry the father of her children, Edmund Holland. She was known by the surname Langley or Plantagenet. (C-437, p. 591) PLANTAGENET, Constance "Langley" Or (I2273)
 
574 For Williams descendants, his son John and Humphry moved to Somerset and Cecil Co. Maryland respectively. His son William might have moved to the states in some theories. His son Samuel's death date and place haven't been found. His grandson James, son of Alexander moved to Pennsylvania. He is the ancestor of American Statesman, John C. Calhoun.

We do now have a triangulation for this William between my mother and two of her cousins that indicate we descend through this William or his ancestry. They are:
A127179 , A092025, A102985, and A127179 on chromosome 17.
 
COLHOUN (Not the son of Robert as theorized by Charles Croslegh), William (His middle name is NOT Campbell) * (I14878)
 
575 Frances is listed as the fourth child in Stockett's genealogy. (C-650) AYLEWORTH, Frances (I2899)
 
576 Frances moved to Maryland with the family but is not mentioned in her father's will. She is the youngest child or 11th in birth order according to Montgomery. WELLS, Frances (I2930)
 
577 Frances was buried May 8, 1697 at All Hallow's Parish, MD. HASLAP, Frances (I2922)
 
578 Frances was left her Silver Seal in a Lozenge shield in her mother's will. (C-650) She supposedly had a boyfriend while she was still to be married to Maurice Duvall. (C-1659) STOCKETT, Frances (I2909)
 
579 Frances was living in 1586. (F-511) MALLORY, Frances (I5378)
 
580 Francis had 4 children by William Dungan and 5 sons by Jeremiah Clarke. (F-533) Known to have had 3 husbands, one of them was known as Lord Weston. It is suggested by Morrison in "Clarke Families of Rhode Island" that Jeremiah Clarke was Lord Weston, as one of their sons and grandsons were named Weston. (F-533) LATHAM, Frances (I5169)
 
581 Francis is the original immigrant in this line. He settled in Calvert Co., MD by 19 April 1667. He was a testator to the will of William Huddle on that date. He died young with only one child, son Francis. (C-575) SWANSTON, Francis (I2886)
 
582 Francis, Jr. is listed in his father's will as his only son. Francis, Jr. probably had four daughters. He gave 100 acres of land called "Swanston's Lott" to his brother-in-law, Thomas Plummer on March 16, 1694. In June, 1696/7 in Prince George's County, George Burges requested a warrant against Francis Swanston. He sued him for a debt of 960 pounds of tobacco He was still living in 1697. This court case drew out through Jan. of the same year. When the sheriff tried to collect, Francis was not to be found. The courts placed an attachment on his goods and Chattels. The case was discontinued in Jan. with the results being unclear. In Nov. 1698, Francis's wife, Susanna Swanson, (as the spelling occurred) was in the courts. She and Mary Evans were suspected of killing a "beef" belonging to Archibald Edmondson. (C-575) The resolution of this case must be looked up to be determined. SWANSTON, Francis Jr. (I2870)
 
583 Francus, by edict, changed the name of his tribe from Sicambri to Franks. He led a Frankish, Saxon, Thruingian Army of 300,000 men to fight against the Romans. He also was able to form a league with the German Princes. (C-1346) FRANCUS King Of Franks (I4448)
 
584 Frank or Vera remembered their birth year incorrectly when they applied for a social security card as they are listed only 2 months apart in their birth dates. DIFUCCI, Frank (I10158)
 
585 Franklin is not living with anyone under the name of Franklin or Frank Harb from 1870 onward. Therefore, I suspect he might have died as an infant or child before the year 1870. He is also not listed in his sister, Ida Jane's obituary so I've have listed his death date as before hers. HARB, Franklin F. (I243)
 
586 Frederick achieved the rank of Private in the Revolutionary War. He enlisted in Pennsylvania. His pension application made in 1833 is available from the National Archives. (C-163,293, 458,547) He apparently owned land in Herford Township, Berks Co., PA as he was taxed at 12.9 in 1785. He lived next door to Ab'm Harp at that time who paid 1.3.6 in taxes. As he had no known brother named Abraham, this could have been his uncle or possibly a cousin. (C-431) He died two weeks after he moved to Montgomery Co., Ohio. (C-714) He was an early settler in Montgomery Co. who came with other German families from Pennsylvania. (C-776) HARP, Johan Frederick (I1641)
 
587 From Bucks Co, PA, he requested a certificate for his wife and children to move to Richland MM on 1743, 6mo(Aug) 1. According to the "History of Bucks County, PA", he was amongst the first eleven families to inhabit Haycock, PA in 1743. Most of the families were German, with a little Welsh and Irish thrown in too. I believe it later became the township of Springfield. He appears to have begun the purchase of this land, 300 acres on Dec. 22, 1737 in Philadelphia for land on Tohickon Creek in Bucks Co., Pennsylvania It was surveyed on Apr. 1, 1738 and was bounded on three sides by vacant land and the fourth by Wm. Graham. It was returned Aug. 12, 1745. The final date on the paperwork for this land was Mar 10, 1757. He was deeded this property by the Governors in Chief, John, Thomas and Richard Penn, Esq.'s. (C-253c, 2171, C-DOC provided by Orrell Dunn, E.) DAVIS, Griffith (I1233)
 
588 From Mobberly Parish records we are sure that Susan is the mother of Rose, who was "way pregnant" when she married John. Their daughter Rose was born 2 days later. The other child we are sure is hers is Francis as Susan's name was listed when Francis dies as an infant. It is conjecture that she is the parent of the rest of the children, since they are in a neat and normal grouping for a couple having children every couple years or so. Her death date is the following record in Mobberly Parish listings. Quakers had to pay fines if they were not buried in Wool and this was listed in the records while the law was in effect. "Susann the wife of John Coppock, buried the 18th day [of Oct 1684] and affidavit brought within the space of 8 days after' certifying that she was buried in Woollen. LOWE, Susan (I3070)
 
589 From naming patterns, her parents are possibly William and Sarah. UNKNOWN, Rebekka (I6352)
 
590 From Newberry County by George Summers, lists Mary's husband as Joseph Hall. This is a mix-up on his part, as we know from James Coate's administration in 1807 that James's daughter Mary was most definitely married to Joseph Hall. (C-1912) Also, Mary is listed in her father's will in 1816 as Mary Taylor. (C-266) Mary and her husband and 2 of this brothers moved to Gwinnett Co., Georgia about 1838 and then to adjoining Forsyth Co., Georgia. COATES, Mary Ann (I6076)
 
591 Fulke was of Aylestone, co. Leicester, and Tong, co. Salop. (C-1368) DE PEMBRUGGE, Fulke (I4560)
 
592 Gary Coats believes this is the Elizabeth Walker married to Henry Coats in that time period, but he's also seen her name listed as Elizabeth Derby. I'm theorizing that it's Elizabeth Derby as I believe Elizabeth Walker was married to a different line of Coats. DERBY, Elizabeth (I1918)
 
593 Geoffrey was nicknamed Plantagenet because he always had a spring of the broom (genet) plant in his hat. COUNT OF ANJOU, Geoffrey V "Plantagenet" (I2203)
 
594 Geoffrey would be an ancestor of Ann Pole who later married Marmaduke Coate, though his descedants were not written down in legal documents due to the fact that they had a greater claim to the thrown of England than the current persons holding that title and their lives were in jeopardy. Therefore, the descent from Geoffrey is theory and is currently best presented in Pat Moran's book, "Moran Exodus from Offaly", p. 516-517. If Pat Moran's birthdate calculation for Geoffrey is correct, he would have been born shortly after his father's death. POLE, Geoffrey (I8339)
 
595 George and his brother William were living with the W.F.R. Davis family in 1850 in Dublin, Mercer Co., Ohio. George was 21 and a merchant. His brother William was 25 and a physician by trade. Here are his 1870 census results: "Alice Harb Union, Miami, OH abt 1869 Ohio White Female, Clara Harb Union, Miami, OH abt 1863 Ohio White Female, George W Harb Union, Miami, OH abt 1829 Ohio White Male, Leona Harb Union, Miami, OH abt 1865 Ohio White Female, Mary Harb Union, Miami, OH abt 1861 Ohio White Female, Mirah L. Harb Union, Miami, OH abt 1837 Ohio White Female. George was listed as a Retail Dry Goods merchant and this was likely where his brother Marcus L. Harb was then employed as a clerk." HARB, George W. (I278)
 
596 George and his wife Mary came over on the same ship as likely brother, Thomas Underwood. This is verified when Capt. Moore Fauntleroy, the captain of the ship on which they traveled, received 450 cares of land on the Rappahannock River on the N. side of Swan Bay on May 22, 1650, for transporting 9 individuals including, George Underwood, his wife Mary and Anne Underwood. On this same day, "22 May 1650. Lancaster Co VA. Capt. Moore FAUNTLEROY in Rappahannock River, 1800 acres on the N side, 500 acres being marsh and facing the river, 1300 acres of the high land beginning at a point on the westward side of the mouth of Bushwood Creek, running for length NE by E and adjoining land of William UNDERWOOD, for transportation of 36 persons: Nugent, Patent Bk 2, p. 195. Capt. Moore FAUNTLEROY. 1800 acres in RapPennsylvania River on N side; 500 being marsh & facing the river & 1300 acres of the high land beginning at a point on Wwd side of the mouth of Bushwood Creek, running for length NE by E & adj. land of William UNDERWOOD. 22 May 1650.

DAY, Margarett COWARD. (Patent Bk 2, p. 195). This patent was assigned by Moore FAUNTLEROY to Michael WINDSMORE who renewed it in his own name on 6 October 1654 (Patent Bk. 3, p. 299). (C-2394)" UNDERWOOD, George (I7111)
 
597 George Bartlett was one of the earliest settlers of Guilford. He was the brother of John Bartlett of Windsor, CT according to "Blushing Glory, Hide Pultova's Day". George and a Daniel Bartlet were early settlers of Guildford, making it highly likely that Daniel was a father or brother of George's. According to Gary Alan Bartlett, he immigrated about 1639, probably underage, as 21 year olds and above signed their names to a Plantation Covenant on which he was not listed. He was a part of Rev. Whitfield's settlement (primarily from county Kent, Sussex and Surrey, England) who sought religious freedom in an isolated setting. By 1640, England was embroiled in civil war that virtually cut off further immigration for a period of several years. (F-579)

Multiple sources give Robert and Mary Warren Bartlett who lived in Plymouth, MA as his parents. This is unlikely for the following reasons. 1) Robert married in 1634 to Mary Warren, a descendant of the Mayflower. Even if our George is a descendant of Robert Bartlett, he is not a descendant of Mary Warren (and the Mayflower lineage) as his birth estimated from several of his life's events suggest he was born before 1630. 2) George is not listed as their child in Plymouth, MA records. (AND) 3) Robert and Mary Warren Bartlett did not have a son named John or Daniel - likely brothers of George.

At this point in time, the parentage of George is not known. From the naming patterns of his children, my guess would be that his father was John Bartlett and his mother's name was Mary or Hannah... as these names were the oldest children's names that were not accounted for my Mary Bartlett's side of the family. George became a prominent citizen and had a home in the center of town on the southwest corner of the town green. His home would have been near what was the Park Hotel in Guilford, CT when an 1897 history of Menunkatuck was written. In 1986, the Monroe Building housing Douden's Drug Store occupied it's space.

He is first listed in Guilford, CT records on the 14 of August 1645 when he is witnessed the court proceedings of the first court record of the "Guilford Plantation". His first few years in Guilford, he likely spent under the care of another family. It was known that there were several young men under the age of 21 brought with the original settlement in the care of other families. George is listed in the 1650 list of Planters for Guilford, CT. It indicates that he was accepted as a freeman on May 22, 1648. According to Gary Alan Bartlett, the Freeman status indicated that he had completed "rigorous requirements for church membership, including public testimony relating the particulars of ones conversion experience to fundamentalist Christian belief, and knowledge of Scripture and that he had achieved the age of at least 21. (F-509, 526)
