Notes


720. Robert GLIDEWELL II

CHILDREN: Bristol Parish Register lists; Susan 13 Nov 172(), Rbt 23 Oct 1722, Nash 19 Jun 1720.

He could be the Robert Gladwell born or baptized 1 Feb 1701 in England, son of William and Alice Briant Gladwell.

From the Virginia Register in the Bristol Parish Page 38 Robert Glidewell unable to work-cancer-court cared for him.
Bristol Parish Vestry Book, p. 38, entry dated 14 Apr 1728: "Robert Glidewell being afflicted with cancer in his face which hath made him unable to labour for his livelihood, it is ordered that the Church Warthen find him necessary clothin (sic) and likewise that John Browden find him necessary board, and he to be allowed 100 lbs of tob(acco?) - month."

Entry p 45, dated 3 Aug 1729: "Upon the petition of Elizabeth Glidewell that she is a poor widow and not able to take care of her children, desires that her son Robert Glidewell (III) be bound to Tho Clemmon as the law direscts 'tis granted."

From research by Diane Fitzsgibbons: http://www.idir.net/~dfitzgibbons/Index.htm (2003)
"The first documented and proven ancestor to my line is Robert Glidewell (b.ca 1695 place unknown), who is first found listed in the Bristol Parish (VA) Vestry Book in the 1720-1730's, when his children's baptisms are being recorded. He was a tobacco planter. Right now, I presume his father to be a Robert, because there is a Robert "Glidswell" listed in Surry County Virginia tax lists of 1702 as an adult. Also concerning a Robert Glideswell is his name again mentioned in the book "Boddies Colonial Surry", shown living with William Coggins (not related) on his tobacco plantation, including 91 other taxable people (this includes whites and slaves). Perhaps this is where Robert learned his tobacco planting skills.
Although LDS files tie this VA Glidewell line to Aymes Gladwell, or others, it is not yet proven whether my Virginia Glidewells originated in England or Scotland, nor is Robert's parentage proven. One obituary from the 1800's claims northern England as our country of origin, while two other obits from the same era claim Scottish descent. The William Coggins who is mentioned above, was from Scotland. English church records prior to 1600 show several GLIDEWELL or GLIDWELLs in England, primarily in the Bedford and Kent areas, however, there has been no clear connection made to any of them yet. (See the pre-1600 list)
Robert (b.ca1695) Glidewell died in 1728, as recorded in the Vestry Book, of face cancer. His wife Elizabeth is found again at the time of her death, Sept.1765, in Chesterfield Co. VA (order book 3, part 2) as "...being so poor that no person will take administration of her estate orders that the Sherif do take and administer the same and under his account."

Now we have two Roberts, either of whom might have been our ancestor. (comments from: Jack Glidewell)
Some secondary sources report that Robert (b 1698) was the son of William Glidewell (b 1665 London) and Alice Briant (b unk m 1697 London). Diane Fitzgibbons has studied the LDS records, and has the primary sources.
On the other hand, in the Compendium of American Genealogy, Vol III, 1942, p 564. "GLIDEWELL, James Arthur, b Cooper, Tex, Nov. 6, 1889, and others, reported:
"11. Aymes Glidewell (b1619) from Eng. in the "Increase," 1835, settled at Boston, Mass.;
10. Robert (b 1640) of Bristol Parish, VA;
9. Daniel (1675-1727) of Bristol Parish.;
8. Robert (ca. 1700-1728) of Bristol Parish, m 1719 Elizabeth -- ;" The Compendium, as far as I can find, was complied by traveling genealogists who interviewed well-known people in community about their ancestors. None that I have found cite any sources other than the person who recounted his family history.
The second group of genealogists often (not always) place Robert in the line of descent as the son of Daniel who was the son of Aymes.
The first group places Robert as the son of William, b 1736, in Bexley, Kent, England, who migrated to the Virginia colony late in the 1600s. William’s father was Reinhold, b. between 1613 and 1618 in England.
I have been unable to find a report of the birth of Robert II, born 1700 (+ or - 5), to any parents in the Parish Vestry Book Birth Register. To my knowledge, limited as it is, this issue has not been settled as of now (28 June 2003).
Tentatively I accept the idea that one of the two Roberts (b 1700 + or - a year or two) was the father of Nash (b 1721) and Robert (b 1722). I keep hoping that new information about this family in VA will turn up.

Some additional complications are added by a message I received from George Jansen, Jr., & Virginia Carpenter Jansen, 126 Orchard Court, Richland, WA 99352. Phone 590-627-7385. e-mail gjansen@3-cities.com.

"I do not think that here is direct evidence for any of the question answers beyond what you have already indicated. Most of the evidence is indirect and non-confirmatory and is open to more than one interpretation. For example:
"The role of Daniel G. in VA may be interpreted as (1) and ancestor of Robert (2) the son an earlier Robert who married Thomas Gent's widow before 1700, or (3) ???"
"We don't know if Wm & Alice migrated to VA or not, but if they did, they probably went back to England.
"I think that Reuben Gladhill of Isle of Wight Co., VA has a brother, William, living in VA, but since these are Quakers, probably from Yourshire, they may not be related to Robert at all.
"The birth of Robert in London in 1701 seems consistent with the Robert who arrived in VA 171?, who was undoubtedly Elizabeth's husband. It appears to be the custom to send sons back to England for education? And then they show up as immigrants when they are transported again.
****
"Robert Glidewell (b 1722) lived in Granville Co., NC in the 1746 Petition and 1750 censuses and in 1755 got land there as a result of his service in [NC] militia. His land was very close to the VA line and although he sold it, he did not have to move far to be on Little Blue Wing Creek in Halifax Co., VA. Nash Glidewell became well established in Halifax Co., VA, but their geographic separation in the tax lists is great enough to tell their descendants apart in the lists until they were alphabetized.
"Robert [b 1722] was probably married by 1746 since a person usually did not farm land until marriage. We find only one Byrd, John Byrd in Granville Co., NC and he could be Robert's brother-in-law, although they did not live close to each other. Putting this together with William Byrd getting land in Bertie Co., NC within the Granville District, we have formed the hypothesis that Robert married in NC a daughter of Will & Jean (Bell?) Byrd, [Jean was] a sister of Sutton Byrd of NC & SC. According to the book by Earl Byrd of Mississippi, this Byrd family can be traced back through Chowan Co., NC through Surry Co, VA, and back to England."
"We have included this branch on our Web Page, a printout of which is attached. Currently, we are looking at counties that Wm Byrd lived in in NC & SC, trying to find evidence for a Glidewell. This has already explained the source of the Early Byrd land holdings in Laurens Co., SC where Robert Glidewell (b 1722] moved about 1780.

721. Eliza Elizabeth Susan NASH

Several researchers have suggested the surname of Nash for Elizabeth. I have no documented proof that this is correct. There is a Thomas Nash who left a will in Henrico Co., VA around 1733. (Source: Dawn Westfall) Thomas J. Nash, b 1773 c/o William Nash m Sarah Elizabeth Talley, d/o Daniel Talley and Mary Mickey Elizabeth Powell, in 1798 Halifax Co., VA. Abraham Nash m Poly and had Nancy Nash who m Wiley B. Nash ca 1820. Wiley and Nancy had 9 children. Wiley was b VA, but died in David Co., NC & was m in Mecklenburg Co., VA (Source: Mary Seamster)

3 Aug 1729, Bristol Parish, VA Vestry Book: Upon the petition of Eliza Glidewell that She is a poor Widow and Not able to Take Care of her Children Desires that her son Robt Glidewell Be Bound to Tho Clemmon as the law Directs tis Granted.

From the Library of VA, Index to Wills and Administrations Card Catalog: There is an Elizabeth Glidewell d. 1765 Chesterfield Order Book 3, "she died so poor no one would administer her estate so Sherriff to be admins. 6 Sep 1765". Chesterfield borders Dinwiddie Co., where Terrence Lamb Glidewell was last recorded.

One speculation is that Elizabeth was shunned by the family for having Terrence and went to live by him. Perhaps she died penniless while sons Nash and Robert were thriving in Halifax. (Diane Fitzgibbons)

I believe that this is a good possibility.

Sweden, through Rogivald the Magnificent, great-grandson of Olaf, King ofNorway. Rognivald
(d. 890) was father of Rollo the Dane and his brother Malabulc was theprogenitor of the
Leftwich line. Descendants of the two brothers united when Matilda (b. ca1230) married Robert
de Croxton (d. 1294). This Robert assumed the name Robert de Leftwyche.Leftwich Hall in

832. Edward TEAGUE

The DNA from his descendants prove: Atlantic Modal Haplotype with some of the maps showing the heaviest concentration of the entire R1b group, at least in the British Isles, in the areas bordering the Irish Sea: the western coast of Wales, the eastern coast of Ireland, the Galloway peninsula in SW Scotland, the north coast of Cornwall, and the north coast of the West Country (including the area of Bristol -- which is where the Thomas Jones who brought our Edward Teague into Md. is supposed to have come from. (See below.)

From the Edward TEAGUE Website:
http://members.tripod.com/~jack0204/gen/teague/edward_teague.html

ARCHIVES OF MARYLAND, SOMERSET JUDICIAL RECORDS, November 10, 1674:
“Thomas Jones brings his servant Edward Teage before the Court and prays the worshipful Court to judge his age. He, ye said Edward Teague, coming into this province without indentures.”
“After a full review by the Justices setting in Court of the said servant Edward Teage, this Court does adjudge him the said Edward Teage fourteen years of age.”

HALL OF RECORDS ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND, INDEX TO EARLY SETTLERS (1630-1680), VOL. II
June 8, 1675
“Eodem Die (this day) Thomas Jones proved his right to two hundred and fifty acres of land for transporting himself, Edward Teage, John Edomnds, Sr., Rebecca Edmonds, and John Edmonds, Jr. into this Province to inhabil.”
"We consider Edward Teague to be the first known identifiable ancestor of a great majority of the Southern and Mid-Western Teague families, based on the records and published herewith.

The spelling of the name Teague as well as other names in the early days of this country varied considerably from time to time and place to place as such spelling was based on the pronunciation and the possible guess of the recorder of these documents. In some instances the person knew the correct spelling of the name, but as the educational level of the early settlers was considerably limited because of an almost non-existent schooling available; many of the settlers were not able to read or write.

Edward Tegg’s name was transcribed in the records in 1675 as Teage, in 1695 as Tegg, and was corrected by his son William Teague in 1714, even though William was unable to sign his own name, but it is evident he knew how to spell it.

Edward was likely a family member of the Edmonds, or possibly and indentured servent. A single man would not have had the finances for a passage.

MARYLAND ARCHIVES, SOMERSET COUNTY COURT JUSICIAL RECORDS: 9-30-1687 to 6-10-1689
“Entries returnable the Second Tuesday in Janry: Annoq Dom 1687”
“n:est: Invts Caps agt Edward Teague to answer to Thomas Roberts of a plea of Debt John Robinson Subpd on; the part of y plte.”
The abbreviation “caps” means capias ad respondendum which means “to arrest.” The sheriff had been directed to arrest Edward Teague and to bring him to court to answer a plea. The abbreviation “n:est” means “Non est inventus” meaning “he was not found.” The sheriff had reported back to the court that Edward could not be found. This order for his arrest may have prompted Edward to move to Cecil County to live. It was not easy to find a person in colonial times, and authorities would not have looked elsewhere for someone accused of a minor offense like a bad debt, so basically he could have beat the charge by simply moving.

The question, where did Edward Teague come from? Was he transported direct from England, or was he brought into Maryland from the Eastern Shore of Virginia where some earlier Teagues had settled? The record doesn’t say but in checking on Thomas Jones, the person who transported him into Maryland we possibly find him, (Thomas Jones), was a mariner from Bristol, England, a trader and sheriff of Somerset County, Md. In 1672 he was given exclusive rights to trade with the Indians in St. Mary’s County, Md.

The second record on Edward Tegg (as was spelled in these documents) relates to a Warrant Patent of 300 acres of land in Cecil County, Md., as laid out in two tracts by Thomas Coursey, Deputy Surveyor, - one for 130 acres dated August 25, 1695, and the other for 160 acres dated August 26, 1695. These were recorded in the Land Office in Annapolis, Md. Ten."

(The above is an excerpt from the Teague Family Magazine originally published in the 1970s.)

RECORDED IN LAND OFFICE, ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND
8-25-1695 130 Acres—Teague’s Delight
8-26-1695 160 Acres--Pembroke

Cecil County, Maryland was first explored in 1608 by Captain John Smith of Jamestown. In 1633, a trading post was opened. It was established as a county in 1674, being formed from Baltimore and Kent Counties. Cecil County is the most northeastern of all counties in Maryland and is bordered by the ocean to the east, by Harford County to the west, by Lancaster County, PA to the north, and by Chesapeake Bay to the south. The Susquehanna River flows south out of Pennsylvania along the western edge of Cecil County where it empties into Chesapeake Bay. Teagues Delight and Pembroke (Edward Teague’s properties) were located on the eastern banks of the Susquehanna and along the banks of the Conewingo Creek on the western edge of Cecil County. Today the Teague properties are located just south of state highway 273 near the town of Conwingo.
Hunago Creek ran through Edward’s property, emptying into Saw Branch of the Susquehanna River.

He was born in 1659. He died on 3 Sep 1697 MD. (1998 Bob Ballard)

Edward Teague 1655-1696 was from Bristol England and paid passage to America on the ship Thomas Jones in 1675. He settled in Cecil County Md where he bought 290 acres of land naming it Teagues Delight. His son William Teague 1693-1762 sold his fathers land in 1714 at age 21. He migrated to Frederick Co VA in 1737 and later to North Carolina in 1751 Ref is Internet (Kipp Teagues family Genealogy--US GENWEB FOR NORTH CAROLINA--BUNCOMBE CO.)

Could not find a marriage for these guys. I think that they also lived in New Castle Co DE. They may have married over there."

Edward Teague, b.1660 at Teague's Delight, Cecil, Maryland, d. 3-9-1695, Cecil, MD, m. before1695, Cecil, MD to Susan ___________, b. 1663, d. abt. 1704, Cecil, MD.

The Teague's lived on a farm, called Teague's Delight, located near Cecil, Maryland on the east side of Cunnuanscoe Creek and on the north side of the Susquehanna River. They lived at the head of the Susquehanna River which flows into Chesapeake Bay. They were members of St. Mary Anne's Episcopal Church. Many Teagues are buried in the graveyard of St. Mary Anne's.

Edward was assigned 2 tracts of land on 8-25-1695 and on 8-26-1695. Deeds are on file in Elkton, MD. (Morman files, TEague Magazine, Vol. I, no.2.)

Edward Teague's estate was settled on 5-4-1702. Edward owned 300 acres. Emanuel SMITH was the administrator of Edward's estate. Emanuel's will lists Edward's children. Emanuel died 6-3-1704. Edward died 3-9-1697 At Cecil, MD and is buried there. His estate was settled 5-4-1702.: an “appraisement” of his estate, entered in court by Cornelius Comegy and George Almery of Cecil County. ESTATE INVENTORY, CECIL COUNTY 9-20-1697
Thirty-four separate items were listed in the appraisal. A partial list follows:7 old guns one old horse 2 gallons of brandy cash 2s/10p, 10 gallons of runlot a bill of Thomas Whormsly for 1200 pounds of tobacco, 25 gallons of cider 400 pounds of tobacco 32 pounds of lard, cows and yearlings a crosscut saw

5-4-1702 Final Settlement of Edward”s Estate:
“The account of Emanuel Smith of Baltimore county, administrator of the Estate of Edward Teague late of Cecil County, deceased March 9, 1697”
After Edward’s death, Susannah took her children and moved to Spesutie Hundred, St. George’s Parish, Baltimore County (later Harford County).
Emanuel Smith was appointed the administrator of Edward’s estate, and he married Edward’s widow, Susan. They had two daughters, Martha Smith, born 2-16-1698/99 and Mary Smith, born 6-1-1701

Emanuel Smith’s will stated, “To son-in-law William Teage, daughters-in-law Catherine and Ann Teage, brother Benjamin Smith,, personalty. Daughters Martha and Mary at age 16, all lands equally. To wife Susan, extra personalty.”
Emmanuel Smith, evidently in poor health, made his will on 4-19-1704. He died on 6-3-1704. In his will, he made reference to his stepchildren, Catherine, Ann, and William, calling them son-in-law and daughters-in-law, which was a common expression for stepchildren in those days. It is from Emamuel Smith’s will that we learned the names of Edward’s children since Edward died intestate (without a will).

From Index to Early Settlers in Maryland, Vo. II (1630-1680)

On 6-8-1675, Thomas Jones, a mariner from Bristol, England, a trader, and sheriff of Sommerset County, MD transported Edward Teage, among others, into the province. Edward was 15. I assume that means from Sommerset Co. where his father lived to Cecil County, MD. and Susan remarried Emanuel Smith of Baltimore, MD. He owned 300 acres.

The TEAGUE family is supposedly of Celtic Origin and lived in England, Scotland, and Ireland for many centuries. Some of their descendants still live there. The TEAGUE Coat of Arms was granted by the King of England probably 1200-150 A. D.

The Teague family migrated from England to Fredrick Co., VA about 1720-1728. They moved from VA to Orange Co., NC aobut 1740-1750. From there, they spread to other parts of NC, SC, GA, AL, MS, TN, MO, TX, CA, and other parts of the United States.

Conawingo Creek runs along the south/southeast border of Teagues Delight and empties into the Susquehanna River. It is a shallow, slow, meandering, muddy waterway with steep banks and overhanging trees. Pictures, taken in dry weather, show a creek that looks like a muddy drainage ditch. In wet weather, however, Conawingo Creek is popular with rafters because it drops significantly with class four and class five drops. Descriptions of the creek suggest the land is rugged instead of flat like most river bottom land. Conwingo Creek’s headwaters are in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and only two miles of creek lie in Cecil County.
Today, both Pembrooke and Teagues Delight are owned by the Girl Scouts of America. Their deeds give Edward Teague’s name , mention the words “Teague’s Delight” and “Pembrooke”, and the dimensions are identical to Edward’s deed. The land is used as a Girl Scout Camp and is called Conowingo Camp. The chimney of Edward Teague’s cabin is still standing.

Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, Vol VII, Oct 1899, No 2: Reminiscences of Western VA 1770-1790 by John Redd, Henry Co., VA: pg 201 :The Foote Family Item 16. George Foote, lived first in St. Paul's parish, Stafford Co., and afterwards in Fauquier Co., where he died. He married first on Dec 31, 1731, Frances Berryman, of Washington Parish, Westmoreland Co., (St. Pauls's Register) and secondly (according to Hord), Anne James. Howere his will gives the name of his wife as mary, so no doubt the second wife was Mary James. His will was dated May 31 and proved in Fauquier, Jun 28, 1759 and his legatees were, his wife Mary, sons William, Richard, Henry, George and Gilson (this name si frequently spelt Gibson), and daughters; Elizabeth, Frances and Bebeathland. He directs that his youngest sons Richard and William, shall be education. The other sons were probably grown.


896. Gilbert CLARK

Jura is a relatively large island in the district of Argyll & Bute lying just to the north west of Islay. Jura is nearly 30 miles long and at some points 7 miles wide but the population is than 200. The west is wild and virtually uninhabited, occupied only by the three Paps of Jura which are known in Gaelic as The Mountain of the Sound, The Mountain of Gold and The Sacred Mountain.

The Western Isles were often the subject of attack by the Vikings and Jura would have been no exception. Although there is little evidence of a permanent Viking settlement on Jura, there is some evidence of Viking influence in the few Norse Names, which are to be found on Jura. The name Jura itself is almost certainly derived from the Norse Dy Oer - pronounced Joora and meaning, "Deer Island". Jura may only be home to less than 200 people but there are 6500 deer so it's not hard to see where the name derived from !!

The Vikings must have had their time until Somerled, whose descendants were to become the MacDonalds or Lords of the Isles, drove them out in the 12th Century. Until the 1600's the MacDonalds held much of the island with their stronghold at Claig Castle on Am Fraoch Eilean- near Ardfin. It is reputed that the MacDonalds extracted tolls from the ships passing through the Sound of Islay. The castle is today in ruins but it must have been a formidable building as the walls of the tower are 9ft thick. In the early 17th Century the MacDonalds fell out of favour with the Scottish Crown and most of their land on Jura was granted to the Campbells where it remained for many generations. At that time the Macleans with their base at Aros Castle - Glen Garrisdale owned the north end of Jura and they did not take kindly to the arrival of the Campbells. There was constant fighting between the Campbells and Macleans. The Macleans finally parted with their land by selling it to Donald McNeil of Colonsay in 1737.

960. John PAINE

He is not a proven father of our Barnett-but there was a Barnett Paine who was christened in Barford, Warwick, England on 29 April 1666, the son of John and Mary Paine. (Parish Register of Barford, Warwick, England 1538-1980). John was christened there on 26 Jun 1620, the son of Richard and Elizabeth Payne. John and Mary were the parents of seven known children: Richard
born 1647, Mary born 1650, John born 1653, William born 1658, Elizabeth born 1660, Thomas born 1663 and died 1675, and Barnett born 1666. After 1675 all of the family, with the exception of Richard has disappeared from Barford. (The Big Payne Book by John C. PAYNE 2007)

http://www.sallysfamilyplace.com/MulberryGrove/cottenj.htm
I don't have information that would prove that Ann Dunbar and Ann Cotton were one in the same, but I do see it as a possiblity. The names John Cotton and Ann Dunbar first appear together in Drummond's 1661 headright application. Then in Nov. 1666, John Paine applied for a headright for 18 people and listed John Cotton and Ann Dunbar side by side. In 1667, John Weire and Robert Paine applied for headrights for 24 people. Many of the names are the same as in the two previously mentioned applications, but John Cotton's and Ann Dunbar's names are transposed as John Dunbar and Ann Cotton. None of the other names were switched around like this. That mistake might suggest that these two people were thought of as a pair.

I don't know if Ann Cotton's letter to Christopher Harris means anything or not. They were neighbors when Harris lived in Virginia and John Cotton is listed a member of a jury in Dec. 1657 alongside Christopher and Richard Harris. It is possible that they simply met in Virginia and maintained contact after Harris returned to England. On the other hand, people often moved together in large family groups so they may have been a connection. In 1677, John Cotton filed a lawsuit against two York Co. merchants named Philip Cooke and John Harris, but I don't know if John Harris is related to Christopher and Richard. I have come across one Cotton connection in
Northamptonshire where Christopher Harris lived. There is a record that John and Henry Cotton, London merchants and half-brothers of Sir Robert Bruce Cotton, purchased Broughton Hall in the county of Northampton. Their sister, Frances, was married to Baron Edward Montagu of Boughton, Northamptonshire. Henry Cotton died young, but it would be interesting to see if John left any family. He would be about the right age to be the father of John Cotton of York Co., VA.

The PAYNE name is Norman in origin and is supposed to be a corruption of "PAGEN", which was a term applied to Normans of the Tenth and Eleventh centuries, not only to individuals who were slow about embracing Christianity, but also to county people, in general, as being proverbially "slow". It was about this time in history that surnames came into use. The first that is known to have borne this name was "PAGEN" of Doomsday. He was a Norman who went over to England from Normandy in the time of Edward the Confessor, before the Norman conquest. When William the Conqueror came, in 1066, PAGEN'S fortunes were greatly enhanced. Doomsday Book, which was an enumeration of the estates of England, made in and about 1086, shows that PAGEN held lands in sixteen counties, and notes that he had the right to go"withersoever he would". He died about this time, and left and eldest son, EDWARD who inherited his estates.

SIR HUGH de PAYEN, supposed to have been a younger son of PAGEN of Doomsday, and because he was younger, was without inheritance, went with Robert of Normandy on the first Crusade in 1099. He remained for some time in Palestine, and with Godfrey St. Omer founded the Order of the Templars of the Cross, which attained great size and power during the middle ages. (See Ridpath's History of the World") He was sent by King Baldwin II of Palestine as envoy to the Kings of France and England, and he was a very famous Crusader. HUGE D. and EDMUND PAIENE were the first of the family to have both given and surnames.

EDMUND, son of HUGH, received a manor. (See Proctor's History of the Crusade.) After the crusade, HUGH's son, THOMAS, dropped the old Norman spelling and signed his name PAINE. SIR THOMAS PAINE also received a manor house in the "King's Forest" of "two Plowings" formerly owned by Hugh BROWMAN, and Englishman. (See small Doomsday Book)

Other Paine, Payne's of interest:

Dolley Payne Madison, wife of James Madison, President.

Thomas Paine
Even before news of events reached colonies, public opinion about the king and independence had begun to change. One of the spark plugs of the change was a poor London writer who had arrived in America two years earlier.

In an anonymous forty-seven page pamphlet entitled "Common Sense (January 1776), Thomas Paine attacked King George in particular and monarchy in general. Responsibility for British tyranny. Paine argued, lay with "the royal brute of Britain." One honest man in Paine's opinion was worth "all the crowned ruffians that ever lived."

It was time, Paine declared, for Americans to proclaim an independent republic and have nothing further to do with hereditary kings. Independence was the "destiny" of Americans. And there were practical advantages as well. For example, an independent America could trade freely with other nations, thus obtaining money for guns and ammunition. If American soldiers were captured by the British, independence meant they would be treated as prisoners of war instead of rebels. They would be imprisoned instead of being shot.

Also, it would be easier for an independent American to obtain foreign aid. Spain and France, both monarchies, might not help rebels against a king. But they were almost certain to help an independent country at war with their common enemy, England. Without foreign aid, it was doubtful that the colonies could win.

There was yet another argument for independence, according to Paine. That was the chance to create a better society. Paine foresaw a nation where everyone would be free fro tyranny, and where there would be equal social and economic opportunity for all.

"Common Sense" was widely read (some 500,000 copies were eventually sold) and widely applauded. It was, in fact, one of the most influential political pamphlets ever written. Within six months, the Second Continental Congress encouraged by public opinion - did just what Paine suggested.

964. Robert COLEMAN

The next surviving child of Robert and Elizabeth was son Robert, born in 1656. Perhaps the law of inheritance was the impetus which prompted Robert to leave Gloucester County and settle first in New Kent County which, at that time, bordered Gloucester. Robert and his wife, Ann Spilsbe, were living in New Kent County until King & Queen.County was formed from that area in 1691. The land on which Robert had settled then became part of King & Queen. Robert and Ann had many children who in turn had many children of their own. Their blood flows through thousands of Coleman descendants all across America and around the world. The names of Edward and Richard Coleman were given to sons in the early generations of this line.


965. Ann SPILSBY

Extended research may result in surprising new discoveries. Before Ann Spilsbe Coleman, widow of Robert Coleman./a> (1656-1712), married her second husband, John Hunter, a prenuptial agreement was made between the couple and Ann’s son, Thomas Coleman. The agreement, made on 5 Apr 1715 in Essex County, stated that after Ann’s death, her estate was to be divided among the children of Robert Coleman. On 20 Mar 1716/7, John Hunter sued the children of Robert and Ann Coleman with the exception of Thomas and Robert. Named in the lawsuit were "Edward Coleman and Mary his wife, Spilsby Coleman and Mary his wife, John Chamberlain and Grizell his wife, Daniel Brown and Elizabeth his wife, William Covington and Ann his wife, and Miles Short and Katherine (sic) his wife". Catherine Short was a witness to the will of Ann Spilsbe.Coleman Hunter on 30 Nov 1715 (proved 20 Aug 1717). The lawsuit filed by John Hunter is evidence that Catherine Short was a daughter of Robert Coleman and Ann Spilsbe. If Catherine received her inheritance at the time of her marriage to Miles Short, she would not have been mentioned in either of the wills of her parents. Virginia law allowed her to witness her mother’s will, based on the fact she was not a devisee.

Catherine and Miles Short were the likely progenitors of Fanny Short of Essex County, VA who married John Coleman. John and Fanny’s children were Thomas Coleman, Happy Coleman who married Mourning Fogg, Nancy Coleman who married Samuel Sessions, Peggy Coleman who married H. Young Gibson, and John M. Coleman who married (1st) Kassiale Lavender and (2nd) her sister, Sarah B. Lavender.


984. Joseph ELLEDGE

Joseph and wife Mary had son Francis who was bound to James Crook and it did not suit Mary and Joseph, so they sued James Crook over Francis, then age 13. Next record without name of wife as Mary was about 14 years later when Joseph and Elizabeth ELLEDGE sold land, so this is a possible second marriage. (This could be a totally different Joseph, but they were living on the same land!) I will list this Mary and Elizabeth as two separate people, but perhaps her name was Mary Elizabeth.
