8551 Notes from "Four Families by Frank E. Ward III" dtd 2-6-07: Died of cancer at the age of 29. Her first three children later moved to the midwest with their father and (Talmadge) grandparents. They lived in and around Hammond, Illinois. The youngest daughter (who may have been blamed for her mother's death) was not moved with the family but was raised by Mary E. and William Morgan. MORGAN, Grace A. (I40370)
 
8552 Notes from "Robert Carver and Some of His Descendants" (NEHGS): There is no evidence that Robert Carver of Marshfiled was a brother of Governor Carver (first gov. of the Plymouth Colony),has ever been found, and the fact that he was about thirty years younger than the Governor makes this relationship extremely improbable. He may have been , however, a somewhat more distant relative of the Governor, possibly a nephew. Therefore, the birthplace and the parentage of Robert Carver of Marshfield are as yet undetermined, and there is no record of how and when he came to America. It is said that he was in Leyden with the Pilgrims before they sailed, but the evidence offered to prove this assertion is unsatisfactory. He first definitely appears in the Plymouth Colony on 3 Sep 1638, when at a Court of Assistants held at New Plymouth "Robert Carver is graunted 20 acres of land lying on the norwest side Greenes Harbor River and a garden place upon Stoney River" (Plymouth Colony Reocrds, vol. 1, p. 94). This land was in Duxbury. He was living at Duxbury on 10 Sep 1641, when Edward Hawes of "Duxburrow" agreed to exchange 10 acres of upland lying across Greens Harbor for 2000 feet of "sawne" boards, delivered by Robert Carver of the same place. But soon after this he moved to Marshfield, where he was chosen a grand juryman on 7 Mar 1643. He was chosen surveyor of highways in 1653, and served often on juries.
He left no will; but soon after the death of his son Joh, the only child of whom there is any record, he made an agreement with John's widow, 27 June 1679, bu which he was to live with her during the term of his natural life, and in return she and her children were to have the improvement of his whole estate until her eldest son, William, attained his majority; then one half of the whole estate was to be set off to him, and at his mother's death he was to have the other half.

8563 Notes from Marcia Harbijanae dtd 1-11-2011

From the New Jersey Herald May 28, 1942

ELIZABETH G. LOCKBURNER, a lifelong resident of Sussex County, died at her home in Lafayette on Wednesday, May 20, after being ill only a few days. She was born in Jersey City on May 26, 1864, the daughter of the late Henry and Carolyn Cahrs of Culvers Lake. Of a family of six children she is survived by one brother, Edwin J. of Culvers Lake and her eight children. John D. of Omaha, Nebraska; Edwin J. at home; Frank, and May wife of L.F. Sargent of Lafayette; Elizabeth wife of A.J. Pullis of Sussex; Meryl wife of Walter Sisco of Franklin; Dorothy wife of T.C. Conners of Passaic and Carolyn Lozaw of Franklin; also by thirty grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
Mrs. Lockburner was well known, being a hard working industrious person always looking on the bright side of life. No task or hardship was too great for her to undertake. She was always the happiest when busy or surrounded by her family and friends. She will be sadly missed not only by her children but by the public who came in contact with her daily life. To know her was to love her.
She was laid to rest in the family plot in the North Church Cemetery on Saturday, May 23, beside her late husband, Frank Lockburner, who departed this life 23 years ago.

8564 Notes from NEHG Register

Samuel Collins, Jr. (Samuel, Edward) was not the Samuel Collins, of Wethersfield, with wife Martha, as stated in Mr. Smyth's article. On Middletown Land Records, vol. 1, leaf 72, is enteed a conveyance dated Dec. 25, 1690, from Sa,uel Collins of "Middletowne"...."to my louing & dutiful son Samuel Collins of lands in Middletown. "I do give and bequeath as above all the formentioned parcell of land"..."unto my son Samuell and to the heirs of his bodie from generation to generation forever."..."with the Limitations following that is to say, if my son shall dye before marriage and myselfe shall suruine then this above mentioned Land to return to myself."

Thus far no record has been discovered of the marriage of Samuel, Jr. I suspect that it was his widow Susannah, date of birth and parentage unknown, who married, march 18, 1702/3, John Harris, of Middletown. She died Feb. 10, 1747/8, aged 80.

8566 Nothing is known of this John Peckham, except that he lived on the Peckham estate at Little Compton, R.I., and was one of the original Proprietors of East Greenwich, R.I., although there is no evidence that he ever resided there. he married in 1667 to Sarah Newport. The Newports were a distinguished English family and connected with the family of George Herbert, the well known writer of religious poems. Isaac Walton, in his Life of George Herbert, page 20, mentions this connection, which we quote:

"The place of George Herbert's birth was near the town of Montgomery, England. The castle was then a place of state and prestige and had been successively happy in the family of Herbert, who long possessed it with plentiful estate and hearts as liberal to their poor neighbors. The family had been blessed with men of remarkable wisdom and willingness to serve their country and did good to all mankind for which they were eminent.

"The father of George Herbert was Richard Herbert, a son of Edward Herbert, Knight, the son of Richard Herbert, Knight, the son of the famous Sir Richard Herbert of Colebrook in the County of Monmouth, Banneret, who was the youngest brother of that memorable William Herbert, Earl of Pembroke, who lived in the reign of Edward 4th. His mother was Magdalen Newport, the youngest daughter of Sir Richard and sister to Sir Fancis Newport of High Arcall in the County of Salop, Knight, grandfather of Francis, Lord Newport, High Comptroller in his Majesty's household, a family that for their loyalty have suffered much. This mother of George Herbert was the mother of seven sons and three daughters, which she would often say was Job's number and Job's distribution, and blessed God that they were neither deficient in their shapes or in their reasons, and blessed God for so great a blessing. Edward the oldest was made Knight of the Bath at that glorious tie of our late Prince Henry, son of James I, being installed Knight of the Garter, after many years of travel attaining many languages, was sent as Ambassador resident to the French King, Louis XIII, and returned in the reign of King Charles the 1st who made him First Baron of Castle Island and of Cherbury in the County of Salop, Lord Herbert of Cherbury distinguished himself in the Wars of the Netherlands and died 1648, the two bothers were Richard and William. They ventured their lives in the Wars of the Low Countries and died Officers. Charles was the fourth son and died Fellow of New College in Oxford. Henry was the fifth, who became a menial servant to the crown in the reign of King jJmes and continued the same for fifty years. The sixth was Thomas, Captain of a ship in the fleet with which Sir Robert Maunsell was sent against Algiers and had there shown fortunate and true English valour.

"Of the three sisters, I need not say more than that they were all married to persons of worth and plentiful fortune and lived to be examples of virtue and did good in their generation."

8568 Notion: The name of Mary Wentworth has been proposed for the wife of William Brewster. "The American Genealogist", " The Mayflower Descendant: A Quarterly Magazine of Pilgrim History and Genealogy" and the" New England Historical and Genealogical Register", all confirm that additional research must be done before accepting this surname as fact. In addition, a privately published pamphlet by John G. Hunt, "Of Mary Brewster, Wife of William Brewster of the Mayflower, from Plymouth, England to New Plymouth, New England" (1985) suggests that William Brewster's wife was named Mary Wyrall of Loversall, near Doncaster. This has yet to be proved. ( This taken from William Brewster of the Mayflower and His Descendants for 4 Generations by the General Society of Mayflower Descendants.

"Mayflower Quarterly:vol. 75, No. 4 - December 2009": Mary Brewster - Mother to Millions of Americans
Written by Kathleen M. (Kathy) Myers -13th generation descendant of Mary and William Brewster, through their son, Love Brewster.

Throughtout North America the early settlers planted lilacs. A Hardy plant, lilacs provided beauty in the lives of those who cleared the land, built homestead, tilled the soil, and raised families. Toda, lilacs are still found growing in the places where these early people planted them, some hiding the foundation of byildings that vanished long ago. Such a location is one-acre plot of land in Duxbury, Massachusetts, where there is a "...huge lilac bush covering the cellar hold of the last house t this location. The acre plot, now owned by tghe Duxbur Rural and Historical Society, is practically the same one-acre that Elder William Brewster bought from Francis Eaton in 1631... on which he built his house." "Tradition holds that either the Elder or his son Jonathan ordered the lilacs from Holland, for the flower is not native to North America. I like to think they were planted in memory of Mary Brewster.

Not a lot is known about Mary Brewster's early life, not even her maiden name. She may have been a Yorkshire or Nottinghamshire girl. the year of her bith, 1569, is based on an affidavit she filed in Leiden, Holland in 1609 where her age was listed as 40.
Elizabeth I of England had been on the throne just a year when mary was born. I can only speculate whether mary brewster received an education beyond the wifely skills her mother would have taught. In Tudor England,"...the education of girls was for the privileged and the rish. Its aim was to produce wives schooled in godly and moral precepts....Most girls were taught the wifely arts, how to manage a household, neddlework, herbs and wild plants that oculd be used in healing, meal preparation, and their duty to their futher husband. But foremost was their strong religious training."
To the Pilgrims, "...marriage was a civil affair...a contract, mutually agreed upon by a man and a woman. Marriage was created by God for the benefit of man's natual and spiritual life. Marriages were considered important for two main reasons: Procreation of children to increast Christ's flock; and to avoid the sin of adultery. Paster John robinson taught that the important characteristics to find in a spouse are (1) godliness, and (2) similarity - in age, beliefts, estate, disposition, inclinations, and affections. In marriage, "the wife is specially required a reverend subjection in all lawful things to her husband,' and the husband is 'to give honor to the wife,' as the Lord requires 'the love of the hsband to his wife must be like Christ's to His church.'
William Brewster found in Mary a spouse that was close in age, shared his beliefs, and may have shared his estate in life, meaning they were of the same social class. The record does not reveal whether or not theirs was an arranged marriage as many were in those times. In Tudor England educating women to read was considered a waste of time but often educated men, such as William Brewster was, taught their spouses and daughters to read. Compatibility and affection was key to a marriage contract that lasted until her death 35 years later. Brewster never remarried, living 17 years beyond her.
As a typical 16th Century wife, Mary Brewster was responsible for the household. She was assigned the tasks of baking bread, brewing beer (drinking water was not fit to drink), curing and salting meats, cooking vegetables, preserving fruits and making pickles and jams. While candles and soap may have been purchased, country women made their own. They spun wool and linen for use in the household and for clothing. Mary, along with the assistance of her older children, would have milked the cows, gathered the eggs, and grown and tended the garden.
Life with William Brewster was filled with joy and anxiety. The early years at Scrooby Manor were joyful. Her first two children, Jonahtn (b.1593) and Patience (b.1600) were born there. By 1602 William Brewster had become more involved in the Separatist movement, and Scrooby Manor became a meeting place for the dissenters. mary Brewster would have found friends among this group of people. by 1606 the dissenters had formed the Separatist Church of Scrooby and the authorities were pressuring the. 1606 was the same year that Mary gave birth to their daughter who they named Fear. Just over a year later, the family fled to Holland.
During their time in Holland, Mary gave birth to three more children, sons Love and Wrestling and a child who died. It was in Holland that Mary Brewster was first introduced to the lialac bush. "The lilac is native to Eastern Europe and grows wild in the forests of Hungary and Romania." Popular on the continent, the lilac did not make its way to England until "....sometime before 1629 when the first record of its existence appears in wirting."
While the crossing began with good winds and good weather, many of the passengers were sea-sick at first. They had to contend with a crew of 30, some of who danced on the deck, and made fun of their seasickness, some who used profanities. About half way through the voyage, the "Mayflower" ran into strong storms which caused water to leak into the ship, dripping and falling on the 102 passengers squeezed in the deck below, a space seventy-five feet long and not quite five feet high. It was the space between the upper deck and the hold which contained their provisions.
As the wife of the appointed Elder of the group and as one of the oldest women on the voyage, Mary was a respected member of the community. She mothered the younger women and children with her strong religious faith and moral influence. As women in that era depended on other women or mid-wives to deliver their babies, she may have been called upon to assist with the birth of Oceanus Hopkins aboard the "Mayflower" as it crossed the Atlantic, and again with the birth of Perigrine White, the son of Susanna and William White, while the ship was anchored off of Cape Cod.
Shortly after the arrival of the "Mayflower", Dorothy Bradford, wife of William Bradford, fell off the ship and drowned. Mary (Norris) Allerton gave birth to a stillborn son. Soon, what has been called "the dying time" began. When it was over Mary Brewster was one of just five adult women to survive the first winter. By the first Thanksgiving, only four adult women survived. Mary Brewster, Eleanor Billington, Elizabeth Hopkins and Susanna White Winslow. With so few remaining, the skills Mary Brewster learned at her mother's knee were vital to the survivors.
I reflect on the courage of mary Brewster and the other women of the "Mayflower". I believe it was their great love of God and gtrust in His promises that carried them through. How many of us today have that kind of courage? To endure religious persecution; to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a small ship; to be deposited on a hostile shore during a New England winter; to lose half of the company in a few short months; to wather the "Mayflower" sail away to England leaving them with no means to return; to be self-relient and self-sufficient.
Mary Brewster died in 1627 and never lived in the house built by her husband on the one acre of land in Dusbury where the lilacs still gro."...With him came his sons, Love and Wrestly, and Richard ore, the little boy who grew up in the Brewster household. to his father's house Love brought his bride, Sarah Collier, and here were born their children, William, Nathaniel, Wrestling and Sarah. Nearby, on the west side of the creek, the Elder's oldest son, Jonathan, lived in a house he had built on his father's land. The Elder William Brewster died in 1643 and his estate was divided between his two sons, Love getting all east of the creek, and onathan west of the creek. How long the Brewster house stood is not known, but by 1648 both Jonathan and Love had left the Nook and the Brewster lands had been sold out of the family."
These were the people who tended the plants and watched the lilacs grow - her loving children and grandchildren whose descendants today number in the millins. The Brewster lilacs, planted in moemory of Mary Brewster.

8569 Nov. 13, 1711, after the death of his brother, Capt. John Crane, he was appointed administrator of his father's estate. April 8, 1712, he rendered account of the estate to the Probate Court at New London, the original paper now (1880) being on file at that office, made out and signed in this own handwriting. His share of the personal property was L22 1s. 6p, and as the homestead of his father, Capt. Henry
Crane, could not be divided at this time without injury, the court ordered it to Theophilus at an appraised valuation, he to pay the remaining heirs for their portions of the estate within two years from date, April 8, 1711, with interest at six per cent per annum. by this we lear that he purchased the old homestead and we presume resided there. The town records give him the title of sergeant. He died Oct. 24, 1732, leaving a will which he executed March 29, 1731.

MAJ. NOYES RAND

major Rand, a gallant soldier, died at his hoe, in El Paso, Tex., march 19, 1911, and by his expressed wish he was laid to rest in Charleston, W. Va., where sleep his ancestors.

Born seventy-one years ago on the banks of the beautiful Kanawha River, Noyes Rand responded to the first call to arms, and in his first baptism of fire displayed great gallantry. he soon won his promotion to the adjutantcy of the 22d Virginia Infantry, and later became adjutant general of the brigade. he was almost recklessly brave when there was an emergency. he was twice wounded and once made prisoner. he had the painful experience of being marched right in front of his home on the way to Camp Chase.

After the close of the war he became prominent in Charleston's business circles; but about thirty years ago he went to El Paso, where up to his death he filled honorable and important rank as a business man. "Plus" Rand, as he was intimately known, was not only a dashing, knightly officer, but a beloved, genial gentleman. He leaves a widow, two sons, and two daughters.

RITES PLANNED FOR PIONEER ORCHARDIST

Last rites will be performed tomorrow for Calvin Milton Slawson 314 Perry Street, retired orange grower, who died Tuesday night at the age of 82 after a prolonged illness. Before coming to Oakland in 1920, he and his family resided in Southern California where Slawson owned one of the most extensive groves in that region.
Failing health necessitated his retirement several years ago and later a fall down a steep declivity on a mountain side at Sonora complicated his ailment. He had been in a hospital for the past four years.
Funeral services will be held at 1:30 p.m. from the California Crematory, 4493 Piedmont Avenue, in the Middle Chapel with the Albert M. Brown Company in charge. Robert Elder will conduct a Christian Science service. Cremation will follow.
