''' How pleasant to know Mr. Lear,

''' Who has written such volumes of stuff.

''' Some think him ill-tempered and queer,

''' But a few find him pleasant enough.

''' ― Edward Lear 1812 – 1888 '''

''' The weight of this sad time we must obey,

''' Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say.

''' The oldest hath borne most: we that are young

''' Shall never see so much, nor live so long.

''Also see the [[#Related Surnames and Surname Variants|related surnames and surname variants]].'' ===Surname History=== From: ''Lemasters, USA 1639-1965'' by Howard M. LeMaster and Margaret Herberger The name LeMaistre or LaMaistre is French and means "the master". La is feminine and Le is masculine. The English version is Lemaster, although later spellings are LeMaster, LaMaster, LeeMaster, Leamasters, Lemasters, etc. The German version of the spelling (due to the migration of the family from France to Germany) is Ley Meister, Lymaster, Laymaster, Limaster, etc. The Dutch version is Delamarter, Delmarter, etc. Even the French had trouble with the spelling and the name appears as De Le Maistre, Le Maitre, LeMatre, De Maistre and DeMasters. During the 1700s the name in France became Le Maitre, when the 's' was dropped during the period known there as "the death of the 'ss." ==How to Join== #This is an open public project there are no requirements to join.

Joseph seem to be the patriarch of the largest group of Lenovers descendants in the Americas. All of the Canadian Lenovers appear to belong to this line. * [[Lenover-51|James Lenover]] - (born abt 1815) was born in Indiana. This line lived in the same area of Indiana as Joseph's line. Just to make it more confusing James' second daughter [[Lenover-63|Sarah Malinda Lenover]] married [[Lenover-62|John W Lenover]]. John W is the grandson of the above Joseph. A relatively few number of Lenovers born outside the USA have been found, mainly in England. Their origins are unknown. == Migration/Geographic Patterns == The earliest known Lenovers came from eastern Pennsylvania. These Lenovers migrated from eastern Pennsylvania to Ohio, Eastern Indiana (Dearborn County), Western Indiana (Parke County) and Southern Ontario. From Indiana, Lenovers moved to Danville (Vermilion County), Decatur area (Macon County), Shelbyville (Moultrie County), and Schuyler County (Rushville). === Early Lenovers in Pennsylvania === Richard Lenover, the earliest known Lenover is found in Bucks County, Pennsylvania in 1787. By 1790 he has moved to Chester County and by 1802 he has sold land his land in Chester County. === Ohio === Early Lenovers appear to have been in Ohio, in Cincinati or Hamilton County for just a short time around the late 1820s on the their way to Dearborn County, Indiana and possibly on their way to Canada. === Indiana === More to be done here. Initially in Dearborn County, but made their way north and west to Illinois. The family, who had some prominent members, is well documented here for a few generations, but no longer live here. === Illinois === ==== Central Illinois ==== Lenovers moved to Shelby County and later to Decatur, Illinois in nearby Macon County. ===== Decatur ===== The earliest record of Lenovers in Decatur were the 1919 Decatur City Directory. ==== Vermilion County and Danville ==== More to follow. === Schuyler County === More to follow on first to move here. == Military service == A number of Lenovers served in the United States and Canadian military in times of conflict. === American Revolution === No evidence has been found for any Lenovers serving in the American Revolution. [[Lenover-195|Richard Lenover]] appeared may have been of an age to serve, but no evidence of his service has been uncovered. === Civil War === The migration pattern of Lenovers followed a largely western direction from Pennsylvania to Indiana to Illinois staying in the northern states. A large contingent also made its way to Canada. All the Lenover Civil War soldiers served on the Union side. Two brothers from Dillsboro, Indiana, served with the Union forces. One passed away in Dallas, Georgia on the march to Atlanta. * [[Lenover-42|George W Lenover]] (1842-1929), 37th Indiana Infantry Regiment, Company F * [[Lenover-75|Bengamin Lenover]] (c1824-1864), 37th Indiana Infantry Regiment, Company F * [[Lenover-119|George Lenover]] (c1841-1876), 115th Illinois Infantry Regiment, Company D * [[Lenover-12|Alexander Lenover]] (1818-1913), 115th Illinois Infantry Regiment, Company D * [[Lenover-62|John Wesley Lenover]] (1832-1911) 115th Illinois Infantry Regiment, Company G === Fenian Raids (1866, 1870-1871) === These raids on Canadian forts and facilities were undertaken by an Irish Republican organization to bring pressure on Great Britain to leave Ireland. * [[Lenover-108|Charles M Lenover]] * [[Lenover-107|Jacob Lenover]] === World War I === More to follow. === World War II === * [[Lenover-192|Walter E Lenover]] enlisted at Peoria, Illinois. * [[Lenover-186|Jack Lenover]] enlisted in the Royal Canadian National Reserve in August 1944.

''Source: Dictionary of American Family Names'' ='''Last name: Lindholm'''= Recorded in over forty spelling forms ranging from Lind, Linde, Linden, and Line or Lyne, to Lingner, Verlinden, Van Lint, Terlinden and Lindman, this famous surname is of Germanic pre 7th century origins. It has two possible sources. Firstly, the surname may be a topographical name for someone who lived by a linda tree, the old word for the modern lime. Quite why lime trees should have produced such a popular surname is unclear, but it may be that the lime was associated with pagan religions. Certainly topographical surnames were among the earliest created, since both natural and man-made features in the landscape provided easily recognisable distinguishing names in the small communities of the Middle Ages. These included many ornamental name such as Lindenbaum, Lindwasser and Lindblom. Secondly for some nameholders at least, the origination is from the medieval female given name "Line", an aphetic form of Catherine, and of various other names, such as Emmeline and Adeline. These may be regarded as Frankish and later Norman French names. The first known recording is probably that of "Lina" (without surname), in the 1181 'Pipe Rolls' of Oxfordshire, England. The surname is first recorded in Germany in the 13th Century, and early recordings include Cunrad Linde of Beuren, who appears in the charters of that town in 1305. Other recordings in England include the marriage of John Line and Joan Withy on August 6th 1549, at St. Lawrence Jewry, London, whilst amongst the early settlers in the New World was Colonel Christopher Line, who is recorded as owning two hundred and seventy-two acres of land in Barbados on December 23rd 1679. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Hainrich Linde of Konstanz, in the city register for the year 1254. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. Through the centuries surnames in every country have continued to "develop", often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Linger was a local name, a type of hereditary surname that identified people by the places where they lived. Landowners were the first to use local names, and they often attached the prefix "von", meaning "of" or "from", to the surname. Often, the use "von" was a mark of aristocratic birth. Local names are by far the most common style of German hereditary surname. Linger was a name for someone who loved beside a grove of limes trees. The family name Linger is derived from the German work linde, which means lime tree. The original bearer was named for his proximity to a hill crowned by lime trees.

The place in Shropshire is recorded as "Linlee" in the 1166 "Early Charters of Northampstonshire", and the place in Wiltshire as "Linleg" in the 1225 Hundred Rolls of that county. The name means "clearing where flax was grown", derived from the Old English pre 7th Century elements "lin", flax, with "leah", glade, clearing in a wood, thin wood. In some cases the modern surname may derive from any one of the places in Yorkshire called "Lindley", near Otley and near Huddersfield, for instance, which are named from the Old English "lind", lime tree, with "leah" as before; early recordings of these place names appear as "Line", "Linley" and "Lineie", the "d" of the modern place name appearing after the 13th Century. The marriage of Thomas Linley and Elizabeth Starr was recorded at Eaton under Heywood in Shropshire on January 17th 1673. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Thomas de Linleia, which was dated 1204, in the "Dorsetshire Pipe Rolls", during the reign of King John, known as "Lackland", 1199 - 1216. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling. ''Source: http://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/Linley'' English : habitational name from either of two places in West Yorkshire called Lindley, or from Linley in Shropshire and Wiltshire, all named from Old English līn ‘flax’ + lēah ‘wood’, ‘glade’, with epenthetic -d-, or from another Lindley in West Yorkshire (near Otley), named in Old English as ‘lime wood’, from lind ‘lime tree’ + lēah ‘woodland clearing’. Lindley in Leicestershire probably also has this origin, and is a further possible source of the surname.German : habitational name from places in Bavaria and Hannover called Lindloh, meaning ‘lime grove’, or a topographic name with the same meaning (see Linde + Loh).

O nome de Lins parece ter se originado na Baviera, na Alemanha. Pode ou não estar relacionado com o nome Linz ou Linse. Estou especialmente esperando que as famílias Lins do Brasil contribuam para este projeto para ver se eles se conectam às famílias Lins da Alemanha e dos EUA. Entre em contato com o líder do projeto, adicione categorias aos seus perfis, adicione suas perguntas ao quadro de avisos, adicione detalhes de sua pesquisa de nome, etc. Nós adoraríamos se algum macho com o sobrenome Lins pudesse fornecer YDNA para ver se e quão distantes as famílias de Lins estão relacionadas. Os machos na minha família Lins (provenientes do sudoeste da Baviera, perto da República Checa) foram verificados para ter Y DNA - G-L30.

If you have any questions, just ask. Thanks! == Goals == This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about one surname, Linscott, and the variants of that name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. == Task List == * Explore the etymology of the name Linscott. * Explore the possible ancestry of [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] ("The Immigrant"). * Flesh out the descendants of [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] ("The Immigrant"). * Explore other Linscott lines besides [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] ("The Immigrant"). * Find mtDNA or Y-DNA lines that stretch across the Atlantic Ocean to connected the American Linscotts to the English Linscotts. == Linscott Etymology == There are two basic theories for the etymology of the name Linscott, both of which rely on splitting the name into two parts, and both rely on Anglo-Saxon etymology. The two parts are: # lind/lin, or Leofwine # cote It is fairly agreed upon that the second part of the name, ''cote'', is Anglo-Saxon/Old English for cottage, or house (see entry in [http://bosworth.ff.cuni.cz/006621 Bosworth-Toller Anglo-Saxon Dictionary]). The first part of the name seems to have several possibilities: # ''lin'' or ''lind''; as relating to the linden tree, also called the lime tree. This is the definition as it appears on the websites [https://forebears.io/surnames/linscott Forebears] and [https://www.houseofnames.com/linscott-family-crest House of Names]. The explanation as given on House of Names claims that the name Linscott derives from the 1086 Domesday Book name of "Lindesela" which is made of the two words "lind" and "sele". This is interesting in that of the 18 variations of the name "Linscott", none of them include the letter "d". (It should be noted that only ''lind'' is Anglo-Saxon for the linden/lime tree; see ''lin'' below.) That website also claims that the name as found in Domesday Book is from the area of Essex, which is about 200 miles from the bulk of the Linscott names appearing from the 13th century onward. Not that the family couldn't have traveled that far in the intervening 200 years, but other name origin theories seem more likely. # ''lín'' = Anglo-Saxon/Old Enlgish for flax and linen (see the entry in [http://bosworth.ff.cuni.cz/021706 Bosworth-Toller Anglo-Saxon Dictionary]). From the 13th-17th centuries, I estimate that 95% of the occurrences of the Linscott name (and variations) are in the county of Devon. Devon was known for its wool industry; it might be worthwhile to see if the area had flax growing and/or linen production. On a side note, in the summer of 2019 I spent time in Moretonhampstead and met a woman who worked with textiles. When I mentioned the surname Linscott, she said she had always thought the nearby Linscott Farm was named after linen production. # ''Leofwine'' is a personal name, such as the famous Anglo-Saxon [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leofwine,_Ealdorman_of_the_Hwicce Leofwine, Ealdorman of the Hwicce]. It is this theory as put forth in [https://books.google.com/books?id=vG7MZ9J6dAgC&pg=RA1-PA443&lpg=RA1-PA443 Dictionary of American Family Names], Vol. 1, edited by Patrick Hanks: "Linscott (811) English: habitational name from Linscott in Moretonhampstead or Limscott in Bradworthy, both in Devon and so named from the Old English personal name Leof‌wine + Old English cot 'cottage'." The [http://www.moretonhampstead.org.uk/gaz/linscott.ghtml Moretonhampstead History Society] seems to ascribe to this idea as well, as seen on the entry for Linscott: "Farmstead which, on etymological evidence, probably means ‘Leofwine’s Cott’ (Leofwine being a Saxon name) and so should be associated with occupation at least as early as the twelfth century. In addition its position on this old road from Howton to Yalworthy suggests a very early date. It is mentioned on the [http://www.moretonhampstead.org.uk/uploads/1332.pdf 1332 Subsidy Roll]. Included in the Courtenay Survey (circa 1790) in three parts, all previously in separate tenancy but then united by Mr William Frost, who occupies two houses and nearly 100 acres. [IJFM]. This last idea, that it is derived from the name Leofwine, also seems to be borne out when the name variations (see entry below) are examined and entries from the 13th through 15th centuries contain these spellings (years in parentheses): * Luuenescote (1200s) * Lewenescote (1281) * Luvenescote (1284) * Lunescote (1300) * Luuescote (1332) * Luvenescote (1346, 1352) * Lunescote (1428) == Name Variations in England == To research the Linscotts in England it is important to note that records for the name have been found as early as the 13th century and that there have been quite a few variations for the spelling. Included below are as many variations as I have been able to find and verify that they are indeed part of the family (link to an Excel spreadsheet stored in Google Drive: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bb3aT-dNdDqrMpYB1_Umyj7LAQLKOZsF/view?usp=sharing Linscott Name Variation Table]; I can make it a Google Sheet if you need the ability to sort the table) : *Lemescote *Lewenescot *Limscott *Limyscote *Linscote *Linscott *Lunescote *Luuenescote *Luuescote *Luvenescote *Lymescote *Lymmescote *Lympscott *Lymscote *Lymscott *Lynscote *Lynscott Research needs to be conducted to see if the following are also surname variations (cursory research so far leads me to believe they are not of the same family): *Luscott *Luscote *Luuscote *Loscot *Liscote *Lyscote == [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] "The Immigrant" == It is generally believed that [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]], the progenitor of most of the Linscotts now in America, was the first Linscott to America (the first record of him being in 1690). However, a Giles/Gyles Linscott/Limscot/Limpscott was in the Isle of Wight area of Virginia as early as 1665 (see the section below about Giles), yet he does not seem to have left any descendants nor to have been related to John Linscott the Immigrant. === The Ancestry of [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] "The Immigrant" === It is generally believed that [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] was from England, and from all the research conducted so far, this seems to be a good possibility considering the overwhelming majority of Linscotts during the 1600s were from England. In fact, the overwhelming majority were from Devonshire, England. Unfortunately, no verified connection to any of those Linscotts in England has yet been established. One thing we know for sure: [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] was '''not''' the son of Henry Linscott and Elizabeth Lauers; that John Linscott was born in Exeter, Devon, England in 1655 and died there, unmarried, in 1685 (documentation proving this will be added to this page). *I ([[Carles-4|Scott Carles]]) am currently adding the documentation for all that is known about [[Linscott-67|John Linscott]] under the "Images" tab. == Giles Linscott - Isle of Wight == Information about Giles Linscott will be included here later.

Please contact the project leader, add categories to your profiles, add your questions to the bulletin board, add details of your name research, etc. I have also begun a Linthicum One Name Study with the Guild of One Name Studies (GOONS) I have several trees posted there with many family lines besides my own. SEE: [http://linthicum.one-name.net/index.php Linthicum at one-name.net] My primary goals for this study are: Connecting with other researchers to replace unproven family lore with facts such as: 1. What was the maiden name of Jane, who married our immigrant Thomas? When and where were they married? 2. Where was Thomas born? 3. When and where did Thomas connect with the Friends? 4. What was the family homeland? Linscomb in England seems to be a strong possibility and I hope to make connections with some English "cousins?" Determine if there were immigrants besides Thomas Linscomb/Linthicum who came to Maryland in 1658 and try to connect the many name variants to this single immigrant or others if they exist or to other proper family lines. A combination of optimum research and increased participation in the FTDNA Linthicum Surname Study https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/linthicum/about may lead us slowly to this end.

It is a corruption of the Middle English word 'hliepgeat', and was a gate low enough for horses and deer to jump but too high for cattle and sheep to cross. There are several variations for the name: Lippatt, Lippett, Lippitt, Lipiate, Lippiatt, Lipyeat, as well as the standard spellings with only one T. In the United States in 1840, Lippitts were concentrated in Rhode Island, with others mainly in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Wisconsin. By 1880, the largest concentrations of Lippitts were in Rhode Island, New York and Ohio, and by 1920, Lippitts could be found across the United States, but mainly in New York, Georgia, Illinois and California. In England in 1891, the name was concentrated in Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Monmouthshire. === Research Resources === Cutter, William Richard ''New England Families, Genealogical and Memorial: A Record of the Achievements of Her People in the Making of Commonwealths and the Founding of a Nation,'' Lewis Historical Publishing Company, Third Series, 1915 Volume 1, Pages 528ff, 534ff, [http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=hvd.32044098879802;view=1up;seq=9 HathiTrust] Beckwith, Daniel, "The Lippitt Family of Rhode Island" "The New England Historical and Genealogical Register" 29 (Jan 1873):70-73; image copy, [https://archive.org/stream/newenglandhisto29unkngoog#page/n88/mode/1up Internet Archive] : accessed 7 March 2016 "Lippitt Family Papers: Cotton manufacturers and politicians, Providence and Newport, R.I."

[[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:Lisher Name Study]] == Goals == This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about one surname and the variants of that name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. The Lisher surname is thought to have derived from the Slavic word " litsch" which meant wild, as such it may have been a nickname for a wild and unruly person. Some believe the surname Lisher was first found in Austria. Some early settlers in America in the 18th Century one was John Lisher that landed in Penn. in 1761. They have arrived from Canada, England, Ireland, Germany and Scotland. Finding origin may be difficult. The name has been changed and misspelled a lot over the years. Even growing up such a simple name, and no one could spell it right. I will keep looking and with luck and a little help from my friends maybe I will come up with something. The goal of this project is to help with any Lisher profile. Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and could use your help. * so many recent Lisher profiles have been orphaned. I will try to do as much as I can to improve them. If you have a Lisher family member please help. Most of the orphaned Lishers were from Sussex England.

Please contact the project leader, add categories to your profiles, add your questions to the bulletin board, add details of your name research, etc. This is a project that I hope will become a valuable reference point for any Little researchers to share their knowledge and assist the understandings of the various origins of the Little name. Please see below for ways you can help. Please join by contacting the project leader, [[Little-4981|Julian Little]]. See the section on our goals and what you can do below. Post questions and comments to the bulletin board and add details about your particular area of interest. === Our Goals === The purpose of this study is to bring together any descendants of the Little family who are willing to work together to establish an accurate Little Family tree by using the best possible sources available for documentation to make new connections. There are many spelling variations, such as Lytle, and Littell. We also need to find out if any of those families with names spelled closely to our own are related. Although DNA analysis can assist in determining that two or more participants who have tested their yDNA descend from a common male ancestor, it will not identify the specific ancestor without the use of accurate record documentation used in genealogical research. Currently, there is a [http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/little Little DNA Study] registered at Family Tree DNA. However, to fully understand the origins of the Little surname, we particularly need more males by the name to test their yDNA for analysis and register their information with that project. === What You Can Do === #Work co-operatively together with other Little profile managers to create the best Little tree possible. #Add the category for Little Name Study to relevant profiles. (The Project Manager, [[Little-4981|Julian Little]] can send you further guidance on how to do this correctly upon request). #Search out original rather than derivative documentation and add sources to Little profiles. #Write comprehensive, well-sourced biographies. See [[Biographies|Biographies]]. #Contact one of the Assistant Project Managers, [[Murtishaw-1 |Jane Lindsey]], [[Little-3072 |Leake Little]], [[Little-4631 |Chris Little]], if you would like to help with any of the relevant sub-projects mentioned in the text below. #If you are a male with the Little surname or a variant and haven't already, please consider testing your yDNA through [https://www.familytreedna.com/login.aspx Family Tree DNA] so that we can all have a better understanding of our heritage and possibly make new discoveries. The Little Surname DNA Project Leads can provide guidance and alert you to upcoming sales. Contact [[Murtishaw-1 |Jane Lindsey]] . #Register your DNA results on with [http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/little Little DNA Study Worldfamiles] at Family Tree DNA. #Check for duplicates and request merges.

Let [[Little-4981|Julian Little]] know and we may feature it on this page. We can also post resources, pictures, stories, and anything else of interest to this surname if you let us know. #Contact [[Andrus-373|Alison]] to request PPP status for those profiles that meet the criteria for project protection. See [[Project_protection|Project protection]] This will protect them from an incorrect merge. === '''Name Varieties - The truth of our origins is in our DNA''' === With a number of spelling variations, including Little, Liddle, Lytle, Litle, Littel, Littell, Littles, Lyttle, and Klein, DNA comparisons have become the only reliable way to track down distant branches of the family. If you have already had your DNA tested for your comparison please add the details to your own Wikitree ID page. You can then find Little's DNA test information where they have recorded their tests on WikiTree here : [[https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:DNATests&s=LITTLE Little DNA Results]] Other questions will arise such as those from [[Little-3072 |Leake Little]] who would like to learn whether Malcolm Little (aka Malcolm X) carried a Little-Y haplogroup? If you have ancestors with similar sounding names, you could be a member of the Little families! Please consider joining this study. We need you! === '''What Is Their Country of Origin?''' === Ideally, some of our collective goals may be assisted by knowing the country of origin for your Little lines. Can you help? For example: [[Murtishaw-1 |Jane Lindsey]] would like to prove the US connection to the Wiltshire, UK Little line. [[Little-3072 |Leake Little]] would like to discover a potential territory origin in Southwestern Scotland for the Border Little family line. [[Little-4631 |Chris Little]] (from Cumberland) would also like to discover Littles the other side of the Border in Dumfriesshire and Galloway. [[Little-4631 |Chris Little]] would also like to research the economic pressures on Littles in NW England and SW Scotland after the act of Union, perhaps until the advent of the railways (1835 Carlisle to Newcastle), leading to the migrations away, whether to Teeside, or the Americas. [[Little-3072 |Leake Little]] would also like to understand the connection (or not) of the Edinburgh Little family branch and the Halliburtons or Border Little family lines. [[Little-4981|Julian Little]] would like to know the earliest Little’s in Cornwall, England and, if possible, where they originated from prior to that. He suspects it could be another county in England, Scotland or Ireland but has found no clues yet. If you can or would like to help with any of the above sub-projects please contact us? === '''Early Known Immigrants By the Name''' === Finding the earliest immigrants to countries such as America, Australia, etc is extremely useful. If you know the earliest immigrants for your lines with good sources please consider joining this study. We need you! In particular, [[Murtishaw-1 |Jane Lindsey]] would like to document all the Colonial Little lines. If you can or would like to help with this sub-project please contact us?

The name can be used both as a personal name and as a surname. The name has many variations and a few derivations, mainly as a result of the difficulty in representing the initial double-L for non-Welsh speakers, and the translation of the Welsh diphthong ''ŵy''. Lloyd is the most common form of the name encountered in the modern era, with the Welsh spelling ''Llwyd'' increasingly common in recent times."

'''''Research into the genealogy and family history of all persons with the same surname and its variants.'''''

There is an expanded description on the Guild of One-Name Studies [http://one-name.org/about-the-guild/what-is-a-one-name-study/ "What is a One-Name Study?" page]:

A one-name (or surname) study is a project researching all occurrences of a surname, as opposed to a particular pedigree (ancestors of one person) or descendancy (descendants of one person or couple). Some ‘one-namers’ restrict their research geographically, perhaps to one country, but true one-namers collect all occurrences worldwide. The purpose of a one-name study is not just about the collection of data. Its aim is to research the genealogy and family history of all persons with a given surname and its linked variants. A study may concentrate on aspects such as the geographical distribution of the name and the changes in that distribution over the centuries, or may attempt to reconstruct the genealogy of as many lines as possible bearing the name. A frequent aspiration is to identify a single original location of the name, especially if the name appears to derive from a place name.

SWALLOW or MARTLET Meaning: A disinherited son, resurrection and repentant sinner. The martlet is a stylised form of a swallow which has no feet. It was shown in this way on heraldic arms because it was believed that a swallow cannot perch on the ground. A fourth son was supposed to add a martlet to his arms, symbolising the fact that he was unlikely to inherit anything from his parents and had to fly away to make his own way in the world. Since the swallow returned every spring to the northern countries (having spent the winter in the south) it was symbolic of spring and the resurrection during the Middle Ages. In mediveal bestiaries the swallow's cry was supposed to be like that of the repentant sinner, and the fact that the swallow was never supposed to touch the ground showed that it was concerned with higher heavenly matters rather than earthly things.

It seems likely that all present-day bearers of the name descend from a single family which originated in this place. There is another place of the same name in Cleveland, first recorded in 1273 as Locwyt, from Old English loc(a) + Old Norse viðr ‘wood’, ‘brake’, but it is not clear whether it has given rise to a surname. ''Source: Dictionary of American Family Names ©2013, Oxford University Press'' Last name: '''Lockwood''' This interesting surname is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is an ancient locational name which derives from the village of Lockwood, now a suburb of Huddersfield in the (former) West Riding of Yorkshire. The placename is derived from the Olde English pre 7th Century "loc wudu", translating as "one resident at the wood enclosed by fencing". Like most locational names it was given either to the lord of the manor, or to a former inhabitant who moved to another area. In the case of Lockwood it may be a case of "both", as the original nameholder was granted a Coat of Arms in Staffordshire! The name recording includes Thomas de Loke - Wood in the 1379 Poll Tax Rolls of Yorkshire. Church recordings include John Lockwood, who married Jane Taylor on May 19th 1555, at St. Mary Magdalene's, Old Fish Street, London, and their daughter, Ellyn, who was christened on May 26th 1556, also at St. Mary Magdalene's, Old Fish Street. Elizabeth Lockwod was christened on April 28th 1560, at St. Martin's, Pomeroy, London. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Henry de Locwode (knight), which was dated 1294, in the records of the Staffordshire Courts, during the reign of King Edward 1, known as "The Hammer of the Scots", 1272 - 1307. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Lockwood 3,22,29,30,31 was born on 10 Apr 1859 in Trenton, New Jersey, USA and died on 23 Jun 1900 in Trenton, Mercer, New Jersey, USA aged 41. General Notes: 1. From the "New Jersey Births and Christenings, 1660-1980" database at https://familysearch.org:- Name: Alice Lockwood Gender: Female Birth Date: 10 Apr 1859 Birthplace: Trenton, Mercer, New Jersey Father's Name: Joseph Lockwood Mother's Name: Mary Lockwood Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C05100-0 System Origin: New Jersey-EASy Source Film Number: 584571 Reference Number: v U p 118 2.Not found in the 1895 New Jersey State Census. 3. In the 1900 census, she is living with her father in law William D. Packer and daughter Sallie. 4. Alice's life seems to have been one of sadness. See married Richard Brian in1878, but he died of drowning in 1886. She then married Adin Packer in 1890, but Adin died in 1900 and Alice herself died in 1900. The 1900 census shows that Alice had 5 children, 4 of whom are alive at the time of the 1900 census. These children would be:- (a) Alice Sarah "Sallie" Brian who married John Fabian in 1901 (b) Walter Richard Brian who married firstly Alivira Huggins, then Minnie Curl (c) Albert Richard Brian - later adopted by his grandfather Richard Brian (d) Edwin Leslie Packer The 5th child is unknown. At the site at https://wwwnet1.state.nj.us/DOS/Admin/ArchivesDBPortal/DeathIndex.aspx there is a death record for Richard Brian, age 11 months in August 1882 in Trenton, New Jersey. This would fit in quite well. However there were other Brian/Bryan families living in Trenton including William and Maggie Brian and Alpheus and Adelia Bryan. As no record of Richard's birth has been found so far, and the death index does not show the parents, the identity of the 5th child remain unknown. 5. In the Trenton Times 27th January 1900, an article appears that has Mrs. Alice E. Packer of 500 Emory Avenue having an attack of paralysis in a drug store. On 2nd March 1900 an article appears showing her treatment by electricity. However in the Trenton Evening Times of 25th June 1900 she is listed as dying on 23rd June 1900 at the home of her brother in her 41st year. In the Trenton Times dated 10th December 1886 the following article appeared:- "Articles of adoption were asked for and granted this morning to Richard Brian who desired to adopt his 14 months old grandson Joseph Albert Brian.". The mystery deepens further as there is a death record for Albert Richard Brian dated 25th July 1885 in Chambersburg, Trenton, Mercer, New Jersey age 0, born England (source New Jersey Deaths and Burials, 1720-1988 at https://familysearch.org) 2.

At www.freebmd.org.uk there is an entry for an Albert Richard Brian born in the September Quarter of 1884 in the Shardlow Registration District, Volume 7b, Page 542. I believe that this child is the son of Richard Brian (Richard's father) and Hannah. The family, including Albert at 5 months old, returned from a trip to England on the "City of Rome" arriving in New York on 3rd April 1885 3. The Trenton Times dated 10th December 1886 has the following article:- “Articles of adoption were asked for and granted this morning to Richard Brian who desired to adopt his 14 month old grandson Joseph Albert Brian. This would make him born around October 1885, which I expect is after the 1885 New Jersey census. 4. An Albert R.

From www.findagrave.com:- Birth: Oct. 19, 1885 New Jersey, USA Death: Nov. 3, 1922 Trenton Mercer County New Jersey, USA Albert was the adopted son of Richard Brian and his second wife Hannah Slack Vardy Brian. However, he was actually the grandson of Richard and Richard's first wife Mary Nixon Brian. Albert's original name was Joseph Albert Brian. He was the youngest child of Richard's eldest son Richard Brian Jr (1856-1886) and his wife Alice Lockwood Brian Packer (1859-1900). Following the Oct 1886 death of Richard Jr, grandfather Richard Sr adopted Albert. The adoption became effective in Dec 1886. His name was changed from Joseph Albert Brian to Albert Richard Brian. It may have been to honor the deceased Richard Jr. It also may have honored Richard Sr's deceased infant son Albert Richard Brian (1884-1885). In 1910, at age 25, Albert moved with his new bride Ethel Chadwick Brian to Detroit, Michigan. However, the couple returned to Trenton, New Jersey prior to Albert's death in 1922.

== Leaves from the Loesch (Lesh) Family Tree == : A brief history of the Lesh family in America, why they came, when they came, and the difficulties that attended them, with some interesting side issues included. : Compiled in 1963 : Benjamin W. Lesh was a descendant of John Lesh (1-2c-3h-4a) : By Benjamin W. Lesh : Buffalo St. Franklin, Pennsylvania. : Many decendants of the family, as you will notice, are conspicuous by their absence. This is because there are so many of them and they have spread all over the world. No one person could locate and record them all in one life time. Besides time and work, such an attempt would cost many dollars. : Since a recording of all descendants is impossible, I have not gone very deep into that aspect. As a remedy for what some might consider my neglect, I suggest that each person who may procure a copy of this record should take a blank page and record all the family information they may have, especially their own descendants down to the last infant. In that way each family can have quite a comprehensive family history to leave to their descendants. That is the only way that I know of that the job can be done. : You have read, no doubt, of Suleiman, erroneously called "The Magnificent", who rampaged around the Dardanellis and up and down the valley of the Danube, during the period following his rise to rulership of the Turks in 1520. : He was one of the very able conquerers in history, which means that he was very effecient in murdering his fellow men. He would sally up the valley of the Danube in the spring when there was good forage for his horses. : He would fight, plunder and destroy during the summer and in the autumn would hurry back home before winter set in. Rather a loose way to handle conquered territory, one would think, but it seems to have worked out. He took and held Belgrade and Buda and Pest (Budapest) for many years. He tried repeatedly to capture Vienna also, but failed. : The prime object of his activities was plunder, but he also considered action important to keep his armies in good fighting trim. Also, being a devoted Moslem, he especially liked to kill Christians. For this purpose it was good hunting up the Danube and there was a prospect of even better hunting if he could have gotten past Vienna and across the Rhineland. There was an old trade road that ran across from Vienna that was pretty solidly Christianized and he could have increased his bag of Christians there, but he never got that far. It would probably not have worsened conditions much, as the different Christian sects in that area were busy killing each other and abusing each other most of the time. You may wonder what the conduct of this monster had to do with my family history. I assure you there is no family connection, but there is an interesting coincidental connection that seems worthy of mention. Suleiman had seamen on his payroll, one called "Barbarosa" because of his flaming red hair and beard. You must not become confused by this title because there were other historical characters called Barbarosa for the same reason. Frederic I of Germany was one of these but he was drowned back in the 12th Century while leading an army to the Holy Land during the Crusades. : Whether one should call this later Barbarosa an admiral or just a privateer I do not know, but he was a terrible fighting man in any language. He developed a considerable navy and made the Mediterranean a virtual graveyard for most of the European ships that ventured there. He held the north African coast in a grip of terror. At Algeria he developed a stronghold, or naval base which he placed in the care of an eunuch officially called the "Bey." : Now the German rulers and people were annoyed by the success of the Suleiman Turks in Hungary, and Charles V of Germany conceived the idea of weakening him by a rear attack-Accordingly, he sent a representative to Algeirs to bribe the Bey. The arrangement was that, for a specified sum of money, the Bey was to surrender the port of Algiers to Charles's forces with little or no resistance. The arrangement was a good one from Charles, point of view. He gathered a very large fleet, loaded the ships with men and supplies, and the fleet was successful in reaching the objective without detection by the terrible Barbarosa. : History treats the episode in a rather vague manner. . .a bit here and a bit there. As I recall the various bits that I have found, the results were about as follows: A goodly number of ships crowded into the harbor, paid the Bey his bribe money and began to unload on the beaches. The ships that could not be accommodated within the harbor waited just outside. When the beaches were crowded with supplies and men and the confusion was at its peak, the Bey decided he didn't want to play the game after all and he attacked with everything he had. The place soon became a mass of torn men, ruined and scattered supplies and sunken ships. The commander of the expedition, since betrayed, assumed that it was a trap and that Barbarosa was waiting for him outside. : There was no choice, however, so all the ships that could get under way made a dash for the open sea. Barbarosa was not out there, but something more was. As the ships were more or less bunched in their effort to get free, a terrible storm arrived blowing toward the harbor. This was not an ordinary storm but something in the nature of a hurricane. It piled many of the ships on the beaches on top of the ruin that had already been wrought. There the Bey's men chopped the survivors to nits. Around 120 ships and 12,000 men were lost. For many years this great storm was remembered in the Mediterreanean area as "the Wind of Charles." : Just what this disaster has to do with the main subject now appears. : The earliest appearance of the family name, which was then written "Loesch", was in the year of 1541 when Charles V conferred the title of Knight on one William Loesch for services in Algeirs. It is mentioned that at the ceremony he was presented with a golden chain such as the barefoot monks of the time wore as a belt. It was also stated that the family resided in Hilgarthausen (then in Bavaria) and had for 400 years. That dates the earliest known history of the family back to around 1140. The family had a coat of arms which I would be free to use (I suppose) to mark my various belonging, but as most people can now read, I can write my name with less trouble, so I will not bother about the coat of arms. : I cannot imagine how William Loesch should have deserved to be knighted and given a golden chain for being implicated in such a disaster as that of Algeirs. : It looks as though Charles was paying for a dead horse, or it could be that William was of vital importance to Charles in some way. William must have had him "over a barrel" for some reason. : Members of the Loesch family better known to us lived in what was known as the Lower Palaninate. This was a fertile area lying on both sides of the Rhine and surrounded by the states of Mons, Treves, Lorane, Alsace, Baden and Worthenberg. : The principal cities were Mayence, Spires, Manheim, Heidelberg and Worms. The city of Worms, you may have read, was the seat of the Diet of Worms. not a very appealing phrase just as it stands, and the Diet was rather unsavory in reality. It was a governing body connected with the Roman Catholic church, under the control of the Pope of Rome. Its business, so it appears, was to keep the citizenry loyal to the dictates of the Pope, collect all the money possible from the citizens and generally carry out the orders of the Catholic Church. It was the Diet that threatened Martin Luther with severe punishment unless he ceased his activities against the Catholic doctrine. Luther, however, ignored the warnings and he was one of the few who got away with it. : One, Fredrick III, who was Palatine ruler at that time, embraced Luther's reform doctrine. However, through the years a Lutheran ruler might be followed by a Calvinist, a Lutheran or a Catholic, so it amounted to a sort of religious see-saw, which brought serious unrest to the people. Each new ruler would endeavor to stamp out and discourage any form of religious adherence but his own, and supress or abuse those who opposed his favorite doctrine. : In addition to the losses and unrest resulting from bigotry and intolerance, the homes of the Palatines were situated between the rival princes of France and Germany, and they were frequently disrupted by the passing of armies and by battles fought on their territory. The various forms of Protestantism found fertile ground in and around the Palatinate and almost constant strife resulted. To have the crops and vineyards trampled into the ground was disasterous, as it deprived the populace of their means of livelihood. : In 1690, Phillip William, then ruler of Elector Palatine as his title was, died and his son John William succeeded him. John William was a devout Catholic and he set about to convert all of his people to his chosen faith. The people suffered losses, cruelties and financial distress because of the demands of the Catholic Church. According to the rules, one could not approach God for forgiveness of sins or for any other purpose, but must pay an official of the Church an exorbitant price to intercede for him. : The term Palatinate is of considerable interest. It is said by some that it is a carryover from as far back as Imperial Rome where the name Palatine Hill referred to a hill where the palace of Caesar stood. Other writers claim that the term Palatinate originated back in the time of the Morvingian Kings who were a line sovereigns, the first line of Frankish Kings who governed Gaul. . .and were the founders of the French nation. Within this ancient court there was a high judicial officer who was called "Comes Palatii". He was master of the royal household. When the sovereign wished to confer a special favor upon the holder of any fief (farm) under him, he granted him the right to exercise, in his province, the same authority as a "Comes Palatii" (in English count Palatine) There seems little doubt that this was the origin of the term as we know it. Perhaps it may also have been the origin of the custom of granting a piece of land to some friend or favorite, or of granting this type of Authority to landholders who were especially useful or friendly to the court. The term was also used in an old Hungarian Custom wherein Palatine applied to a special officer who acted as mediator between the sovereign and his subjects. : The war of the Grand Alliance in 1689 left the Palatines in a horrible condition. This was, as you know, an alliance of England, Sweden, Spain, the Netherlands and the Holy Roman Empire, supported by the Pope and various Italian princes. The strength of this massive coalition was directed against France. : The Palatines were not directly concerned but they were caught in the middle of it. It swept over them and left them badly trampled. Their vineyards and crops were ruined repeatedly until. the fighting ended in 1697 by the Treat of Ryewick. Eight years of man made hell. : After very little time for Recuperation, four years to be exact, the war of the Spanish succession was on, and away they went again with armies laying waste great swaths through the Palinates. In 1707, Marshall Villers, with little excuse except that be had an army at hand, marched into the Palatinates with apparent intentions of completing the destruction begun in 1618. He burned towns and impoverished the people. Why he stopped is not clear to us now. : Louis XIV of France coveted the Palatinate territory asserting, as Frenchmen always have done, that the Rhine was the proper western boundary of Germany. Louis sent 50,000 troops into the Palatinate with orders to "make it a desert." : The French commander gave half a million people just three days to move to safety. Soon the roads and fields, then covered with snow, were crowded with men, women and children fleeing from their homes. Many died of cold and hunger, but enough survived to fill the streets of all the cities within reach with lean and ragged beggers who not long before had been thriving citizens. : Every great city above Cologne was sacked. Worms, Spires, Andernack, Kuckheim and Krenquach were reduced to ashes. The Fortress of Phillipsberg was completely destroyed and villages without number were burned. In Spires the brutal soldiers broke open the imperial vaults, scattered ashes of the emperors and trampled them into the mud. The crumbling walls and deserted castles that fell to ruin may still be seen by travelers on the Rhine. They are the marks of the brutality of Louis XIV and the rapacity of his soldiers. The barbarity imposed upon these people beggars description. Such of the villagers as tried to rescue their belongings were slain. The roadsides and fields were strewn with slain and frozen people. : In the midst of this horror, John William the ruler of Palatine, added to the suffering by stepping up his activities to compel the conversion of his remaining subjects to the Catholic faith. It was then that the great exodus began that resulted in bringing so many of these impoverished, abused people to America. : Is it at all strange that they left the place and that most of them were as poor as people can be? They were known as the "Poor Palatines" and are still snubbed by cynical writers of history. : History does not tell us how so many of these people succeeded in getting away from what had been their homes. It had to be accomplished stealthily, I suppose, since the ruler of Palatine was not disposed to lose any of his subjects. In fact, he published an order threatening death to any who attempted to leave his domain. It is possible that he did not have the loyal manpower to carry out his threat, for leave they did by any means and by thousands. : During the winter of 1708-1709 the English people were astonished and the English authorities were embarrassed by the arrival of a queue of Palatine emigrants, finally numbering 30,000. The city of Rotterdam, in Holland, for the sake of charity and also for their own defense, shipped them promptly across the Channel to England. They began to arrive in England in May, 1709 and by the end of June they numbered 5,000. In August, the number had doubled and by October, 13,000 had arrived. They thronged the streets, most Of them without money and in rags or less. The few who had money had to endure uncomfortable and insect-infested lodgings, of which there were few. The response of the English Court and people to this pressing need was entirely noble. Queen Ann became deeply interested and set about at once doing what needed to be done. The immediate need was met in ways that, for that day and and age, were magnificent. The Queen allowed nine pence per day, per individual, for present needs and lodgings were provided wherever they could be found. A thousand tents were taken from army stores and pitched on the Surrey side of the Thames. Fourteen hundred were lodged four months in a warehouse and many occupied barns until they were needed for crops. : The need for disposition of these people was fully as important, though not as urgent as their sustainance. Final settlement in America was the popular idea, and their disposition was left to a committee of influential men appointed by the Queen. : Some were settled in Munster in Ireland; Some found employment in their trades in England; Some went into the army and many died of hardship and diseases. All of those who went to Ireland were reported in later years to be noble and honorable citizens, much more prosperous than most of their neighbors. : Another shipment went to the Carolinas and one to Virginia. Some descendants can be found, if one looks carefully, around the original locations and, of course, they are scattered elsewhere. Some historical characters have appeared among them, such as William Wert, Judge Conrad and Shelfey and Governors Kemper, Romer, and Speece. The largest group and the one that interests me most are the 3,000 or more who left London not long after those mentioned above. Here there falls into place another matter...a sort of digression that seems to demand attention at this time. : While the Palatines were encamped around London, an important delegation arrived from New York Province. The chief person in the group was Peter Shuyler, Mayor of Albany, and Colonel Nicholson who was one of Her Majesty's officers in America. The purpose of their visit was to urge better defense arrangements against the French and their Indian allies. Peter Shuyler thought that their request would be strengthened by taking to England some Indian chiefs and exhibiting them in their barbaric costumes. He succeeded in persuading five "Sachems" of the Mohawk tribe to accompany him. The exhibit was quite a success. They were followed by crowds and highly entertained, even to the extent of being presented to the Queen. : While the chiefs were walking about London, they came upon the Palatine camp. The chiefs pitied these wretched people and offered to open to them their hunting grounds beyond the "Big Water". One voluntarily presented to the Queen a tract of his land in the Schohare Valley of New York for the use of these distressed people. When this information became generally known, the Schohare became the "Promised Land" of the Palatines. . .until they were made sadly aware that it would not be that easy. : Colonel Roberts was at this time the appointed governor of New York and before leaving for that post he made a proposition to the Lords of Trade, dated November 30,1709. He proposed that 3,000 Palatines be sent to him in New York to be employed in the production of naval stores. He further proposed to settle these people on the Mohawk and Hudson Rivers where, he said, "There are great numbers of pines for the production of turpentine and tar, out of which rosin and pitch are made." This reveals their ignorance of the subject. For example, pitch is the sap and the life blood of the pine tree. It is secured by tapping or injuring the tree and catching the pitch in a receptical. Turpentine is made by boiling the pitch in a sealed vessel and condensing the steam that thus arrises. In short, by distilling it. Hence the term "Spirits of turpentine" (because it is produced from floating vapors.) Rosin is properly resin, and the term is derived from "residue." : In everyday language, rosin or resin is what is left of the pitch after the "Spirits" have all floated out of it. Tar is made by burning pine wood billetts without free access of air. The crude method was to heap the wood on a slightly raised platform of clay or stones. The heap was then covered with earth, all but a small opening at the base, where it could be ignited and where the tar could run out into a prepared basin. Turpentine might possibly be recovered in small quantities from tar, but make tar from turpentine would be quite an accomplishment. . .it just can't be done. : Before they got around to carrying out this plan, something happened of which we have no record, and a new governor for New York was appointed. It was decided that the man, Governor Hunter, should lead the expedition. They were to be settled in a body in an advantageous location. Each family was to recieve title to 40 acres of land after they had paid the English government for their keep, transportation, etc. The board recommended that, after their houses were built and the grounds cleared, they were to be employed in making of turpentine, rosin, tar and pitch. (same display of ignorance!) : A contract was drawn between the government and the Palatines by which the latter servants of the crown. The government was to transport them to America and "subsist" them there. They were to settle in places alloted to them and were to engage in making naval stores, all of which were to be stored in Her Majesty's storehouses. They were not to attempt to make any woolen goods nor to quit the settlement without permission of the governor. After they had paid by labor or money for the expense of their care, they were to recieve title to their 40 acres of land and five English pounds in money for each family. : The ancestor of my branch of the Loesch family left the Lower Palatinate when conditions became unbearable and the exodus was general, accompanied by his wife and three sons. The father's name was Balthasar Loesch, his wife was Susanna Pillipina and the sons were Johann Adam, Johann George and Wilhelm. They were among the group that encamped near London. Out of the large number that came to England, 10,000 died of privation and other causes. At Christmas time, 4,000 survivors were loaded on ten ships and were held off the English coast until April. Just why the delay we do not know. We may assume that the people could be better shielded on the ships than in the open. To us moderns, 400 people on one ship would not sound like very many but the ships were small and they were overcrowded, or so we are told, and we are also told that one sixth of the total embarked died during the voyage, due to overcrowding. : Until the middle of June the ships struggled across the Atlantic and Governor Hunter reported on July 7 that the last ship of the fleet had reached the tip of Long Island and had been wrecked there. He reported that all the people on the unfortunate ship had been saved but that the goods were much damaged. : A superstition and legend developed the connection with the wrecking of this ship. It was said that a mysterious light had enticed the ship upon the the rocks. : The islanders claimed that a mysterious light that had the appearance of a burning ship had been seen at times and that it was this light that had caused the ship to strike. There were also tales that the ship had been mistaken for a merchantman by the islanders and that a false beacon had been arranged on Block Island, which was really the place where the ship had struck. It was told that the Islanders plundered the ship and then burned it. The poet John C. Whittier recounted the tragedy as he understood it in a poem called "The Palatine": ::: Into the teeth of death she sped ::: May God forgive the hands that fed ::: The false light o'er the rocky head. ::: But the year went round, and when once more ::: Along the foam-white curve of shore ::: They heard the line storm rave and roar, ::: Behold, again the shimmer and shine ::: Over the rocks and seething brine ::: The flaming wredk of the Palatine. ::: From Kingston's Head and Montauk light, ::: The specter kindles and burns in sight. : There is more of the poem but you can easily find and read it if you wish. : The people of Block Island were very indignant with Mr. Whittier for suggesting that they had kindled a false beacon to lure the ship on the rocks. Incidently the ship was "The Herbert" and not the Palatine. : In recent years a writer, having heard the legend of the ghostly light, visited Rock Island to see what information he might find. Some of the Islanders he found were still mad at Mr. Whittier for his mistaken accusation. They asserted that wrecks had always occured on Block Island rocks because it protruded dangerously into the entrance of Long Island Sound. : They said that ships were wrecked there, and the Islanders always salvaged as many people and as many goods as possible, and later salvaged as much lumber as possible from the broken ship. It amounted to a tradition. : Some of them still cling to the story of the ghostly light. Whether they saw a light or just thought they did, I am not qualified to say. I have heard of unexplained lights in various places, among them the Brown Mountain lights among the mountains of North Carolina. Many people have seen and do see these lights and no scientist has ever been able to offer an explanation of their source. : As the ships of the fleet came into New York the people were landed on Nuttings (now Governor's) Island. At first they were held for the purpose of quarrantine and afterwards they were held there for convenience. History records that rude shelters were provided. Considering the times and that the housing was a Government project, one can well imagine the type of shelters provided. Thus the great immigration of the Palatines were landed at New York in June,1710, the greatest body of immigration to have reached our shores at that time. With that group, when they embarked, were those we have been noticing. . .Balthasar Loesch and Family. : Balthasar, the father, died at sea, but his widow Susanna Phillipina Loesch and three sons Johann Adam, Willhelm and Joahann George survived. The official records at Rotterdam, Holland, show the family intact when they passed through that city during the exodus. That record also shows two other families of practically the same name although they spelled it differently as Lesch, There was Herring Lesch with wife and three children, Burchent Lesch and wife. These passed through Rotterdam sure enough but they do not appear on the maintenance list of those who reached New York, neither do they appear on the lists of those who went to Ireland, the Carolinas, or Virginia. These may have found homes in England or they may have died during the London encampment or at sea. In any case they are lost to history. : There was another group these people who will demand attention now and then. They are somewhat remarkable and seem to have a broad streak of genius in their makeup. I introduce them here so that you may recognize them later as they appear. This was John Conrad Weiser who had three sons and twelve daughters. His wife is dead ... small wonder. : I knew vaguely that there had been a Moravian state of sovereignty, but why there should be a Moravian religious sect was beyond me, and I did want to know about it. This desire led me through quite a search among bits of history, and what I found was interesting. The name Moravian does, or did designate a state that existed in Central Europe. It does not now appear on any modern map. : It was once known as the great Moravian Empire. It was once controlled by Avars, a warlike nomad tribe, originally from Mongolia. In the 600s one Samo, a Frankish merchant, gathered an army and succeeded in shaking loose of the hold of the Avars. In 658 Samo died and his government collapsed. Confusion reigned after that until in the 800s the scattered Moravians got together and joined with the Slovack tribes and the great Empire referred to above was set up. It included Moravia, Slovakia and, for some time, Bohemis, lower Austria and some territory in Silesia and Poland. : The first ruler of this vast area was Prince Momor. His successor was Rostilso or or Rostislo, who persuaded two brothers, Cyril and Methodius, to come to Moravia from Constantinople in 864. The brothers were apparently well learned for they brought with them an alphabet designed to fit the Slav language. They also brought translations of a of a number of religious books, and they planted seeds that sprouted many religious controversies in central Europe. : The Moravian Empire reached its peak under the powerful Prince Svatopluk (870-894) The kingdom was then extended over western Slovakia, most of Austria and the territory north as far as the river Oder. In the early 900's the Barbarian Magyars invaded the empire and the power of the Moravians collapsed. The center of power then passed from Moravia to Bohemia. : For about 400 years Moravia occupied a very obscure place in history. The next interesting flare-up did not occur until 1390 when John Huss appeared as a reformer and subsequently a martyr. He was a follower of the doctrine of John Wycliff of England who had vigorously critisized the oppressive political and commercial activities of the Catholic church. After Huss had finished his studies at the University of Praha, he was ordained a priest and became an influential preacher. : However, he was so impressed by the teachings of Wycliff that he translated and distributed them throughout his area of activity. They stirred up so much controversy that the Catholic Church forbade him to discuss them. : He paid no attention to the order or any other opposition and in 1414 he was ordered to appear before the Council of Constance, a body of Catholic leaders to answer the charge of heresy. Emperor Sigmund guaranteed his safety but upon his arrival in Constance he was thrown into prison. The council condemned his views and ordered him to give them up. He was not allowed to defend himself in open debate and upon his refusal to change his ways, he was found guilty of heresy and condemned to be burned at the stake. This sentence was carried out and his ashes thrown into the River Rhine. This was done purportedly in the name of Christ.To me it looks like a complete reversal of everything Christ advocated and could not be condoned by any true Christian sect. : The death of Huss set off the civil wars in the Moravian territory that was known as the Hussite Wars. His death is also said to (later) have stirred Martin Luther to added activity of his revolt against the Catholic church. : The Huss followers were termed Hussites and were organized by about 450 nobles who determined to avenge the death of Huss. The won many victories over the forces sent against them by the Pope and by Emperor Sigmund. However, they became divided into two groups. The conservatives reached an agreement with the Catholics and the radicals were completely defeated in 1434. : Before the Hussite Wars, the followers of Huss were known as the"Unity of Brethern" and included about 90% of the people of Moravia and Bohemia, but the radicals were persecuted, exiled and otherwise abused until the sect almost died out. Early in the 1700's they were re-organized through the efforts of Christians David and Count Nicklaus Zinzendorf under the name of Moravians. This is the definite point where Moravia ceased to be a nation and became a religious sect. : In 1774 they established a community on the banks of the Lehigh River and named it Bethlehem. Today it is quite an important city as you probably know. : The Attorney General of the New York Province had to devise some sort of local government for the great collection of aliens, so he issued a commission of justice of the peace to someof the Palatines. These were to hear Minor cases. : The most popular of these justices was John Conrad Weiser, a notable man and father of the Conrad Weiser, who became famous in Pennsylvania Colonial History. : John Weiser, while popular with his own people, was not so well liked by the English or the New York authorities. He insisted on regarding justice as being spelled with a capital "J", and he hewed the line even though the chips sometimes fell on the official side. : The Palatines were held on Nuttings Island for five years while the Governor deliberated as to their next location. While he "stalled" he sent men to survey the land along the Mohawk River and particularly Schohare Valley to whic, as he said, "The Indians have no pretense." That was a sample of the double-talk for which he seems to have had a particular adaptability. True, the Indians had surrendered all the "pretense" to the Schohare Valley because they had transferred it to Queen Anne for use of the Palatines, as has been related. This fact Governor Hunter did not seem to choose to recognize. : The Palatines knew of the transfer of The Schohare to Queen Anne and it is recorded that the Queen actually granted the area to the Palatines. They came to regard it as theirs. . . their future home, their land of Canaan. : Eighty-four Palatine children were apprenticed to various tradesmen in and around New York City or bound out to various families. These were children who had lost one or both parents. Among these was Johann George Loesch who was apprenticed to a weaver in New York. Also among the apprentices was a lad, John Peter Zanger who merits some special attention. He was apprenticed to a printer and his name should be remembered by every lover of American Liberty. When he had served out his time and grown to manhood, he went into business for himself; he started to publish the New York Journal. : There arose a serious quarrel between Governor Crosby and the stated Council (equivalent to our state legislature) on the question of salary. This had always been a bone of contention between the royal Governors and the State Council. : On this occasion the Governor carried it into court. The court is said to have been biased since the chief justice and his associate had both been appointed by the governor. The decision (in favor of the Governor) roused the anger of the entire city and this indignation was publicized by John Zanger in the first issue of his paper, which chanced to be timely. He assailed the governor and satarized the court. The attack continued and colonial grievance were taken up and discussed fearlessly. The governor was highly indignant and ordered that four numbers of the Journal be publicly burned by the hangman in the presence of the mayor and city officials, however, refused to recognize the order and forbade its execution. The papers were finally burned by a slave of the sherriff, with the officials absent from the ceremony. This did not satisfy the royal Governor, and Zanger was thrown into jail in default of bail so heavy that no one could furnish it. Zanger continued to edit his paper by whispering instructions through chinks in the log wall and his helpers did the work. The grand jury failed to indict Zanger, but the attorney general filed an information against him for seditious libel and he was brought to trial by the same court that he had satarized. No attorney in the city dared to defend him so his friends sent to Philadelphia for the celebrated Andrew Hamilton. Hamilton was 80 years of age but his plea was so deep and thorough that Zanger was acquitted. Thus was established the first great step toward American Independence and freedom of the press. : Perhaps many know the story, but not so many know that this important blow against the English oppression was delivered by one of the "Poor Palatines." : It is not definitely known why Governor Hunter decided against the Schohare Valley as a location for the Palatines but it is easy to suspect that he saw in the offing a-chance for personal gain. He gave many excuses, saying there was no pine adjacent, but there was pine. He said the Schohare River fell 600 feet between the valley and the Mohawk and for that reason, naval stores, if manufactured in the valley, could not be boated out. The fall is, in fact, only 200 feet which would not have been prohibitive. Whatever his motive be finally arrived at a decision and in October he reported that he had settled the people on the Hudson River on a tract of 6,000 acres purchased from Robert Livingstone for 200 English pounds. He reported that he had seen enough "pitch pine" along the river to supply along the river to supply all Europe with tar. That, as we shall see, was not the case. : The People were settled in five villages, three on the east side of the river and two on the west. The present Germantown absorbed all the villages on the east side and the present site of Saugerties those on the west. Two names are, or were, in use to ident­ify the former locations of the villages: "east camp" two miles west of West Camp, or west of Saugerties, there was a locality known as Katsbaan; an old stone church stood there on a rocky knoll. It was built about 1775 by the Palatines (those Palatines, I suppose, who elected to remain at the old site or original location. There were some.) : The rear wall of this old church may still be visible. On the east side of the Hudson there is another town named Rhinebeck. I suspect the name may have been changed by now. It was established by Palatines who, as I have said, chose to linger around the original location. Families living in this town still bear names appearing on the lists of the Palatines. The settlements on the east side were within what became known as Livingstone Manor. It measured 16 miles on the river front and 24 miles eastward to the Massachusetts line. The patent had been issued in 1686, but Governor Hunter issued a new patent in 1714, which gave Livingstone the title of Lord of the Manor. It gave him power to try cases originating within the manor and to impose fines and penalties. The location of these activities was, of course, referred to as Livingstone Manor. The Manor probably does not exist now as such at this locality. There is a community called Liningstone Manor much farther west in Sullivan county near the Pennsylvania line. This town should not be confused with the area under discussion. There is no connection, or if there is, it does not interest us at this time. : The great tar-making project which had roused so much enthusiasm throughout the English government and in the minds of the Lords of Trade--once it began to show signs of life--was promptly forgotten by the Lords in the characteristic English manner of the time. Hunter kept pounding away, trying to get set to manufacture naval stores as long as a blow could be struck. He sunk all of the alloted money into it and used up all of his own resources and credit and about all he produced was embarrassement. : The settlements were established in the late fall, as I have noted. Winter seems to have been a favorite time for pushing the Palatines about. It was too late to prepare any trees for tar making that fall and they needed to try to house themselves against the severe weather. During the winter the people suffered from extreme cold, insufficient clothing and the aligned insufficiency and poor quality of food. I suppose they were also afflicted with "cabin fever" and "poor man's grouch", but their food stuffs were furnished by contractors, and since I can clearly remember how contractors fed our soldiers embalmed beef during the Spanish-American War, I am of the opinion that these people really had something to complain about. : Thinking of their own grant in Schohare, they came to regard their detention as little short of bondage or serfdom. They resented their "cocky" overseers because at home they had been as good as anybody and they felt that they still were, although not as fortunate as some. They were praised by some officials and damned by others, so that the truth is elusive. We do know, however, the ignorance, mismanagement and graft that invariably infests government projects. The unrest reached such proportions that Governor Hunter was sent for. : It is not clear just what misdemeanors had been committed up to this time, but Hunter assembled them and gave them a tongue-lashing and asked how they dared disobey him-He had their contract read to them in High Dutch and then asked if they meant to fulfill it. Since he had brought a squad of armed soldiers with him, they were somewhat awed and some replied that they would. That was not satisfactory, however, and he gave them until next morning to think it over. : The next morning they were assembled again, to stand half-clothed in zero weather, no doubt, and when asked for their final decision, they said "Schohare." At this time the governor roared with anger, jumped up and down in the snow and wafing his arms at the rocky hillside, shouted, "This is your home, here you will live and die.,, Awed by the soldiers the people subsided and went about whatever work they could at the time. : After a month more a report from the overseers stated that the people were throwing sincere repentance and the were preparing 1,000 pine trees per day for tar making. I suppose that by that time milder weather had come and they could work in their rags without freezing. They also reported that the children were gathering pine knots from the forest floor for the making of tar. : In September Hunter reported that since the flare-up the people had been busy and obeient. He said that he had nearly a hundred thousand trees prepared and that by fall he would set them to work on the second preparation. : This preparation would consist of removing a section of the bark from the base of the tree as high as a man could reach. The second preparation would be removing another section of bark but not all of it, and thus wounded, the sap would be retarded at the base of the tree and, having no other place to go, would saturate the wood that had been exposed. Ripening would be allowing the saturation to continue as long as thought profitable, presumably for several years. The saturated wood thus became so heavy with pitch (or should) that it would sink if thrown into water. : Hunter reported that out of the knots that the children had gathered they had three score casks of very good tar, and that more kilns were ready to fire as more casks were provided to recieve it. The stupid Lords of Trade replying, inquired out of what funds the casks had been acquired. Hunter replied that he had bought the casks out of the funds provided for the sustenance of the people. : He said that he had also used funds from the same source to pay salaries of the overseers. This strengthens the suspicion that the complaints of insufficient sustenance may have had a foundation in fact. : The second winter a petition was laid before the King (Queen Anne having died meanwhile). The petition stated that the winter was very severe and that no provisions were to be had; that the people were nearly naked and that they had found it necessary to seek help from the Indians. They worried through the winter somehow and resolved to break away as soon as possible. Coinciding strangely with the resolve there came an order from Hunter to the overseers to suspend all work on account of lack of funds. The people were given permission to leave the settlement in search of employment. They were not permitted to go beyond the boundaries of New York and New Jersey and if any did, they would be back and punished as deserters. Hunter was keeping leash on them while requiring them to look out for themselves. They were required to report their location and remain subject to call when funds were once more available. : The Lords of Trade, however, had lost all interest in the project and so this was the end of the tar making. The people understood this as well as did the authorities. More than half of them set out as soon as possible for the Schohare. : With this contingent went the widow Susanna Phillippina Loesch and two sons, the youngest son, Johann George, being still in apprenticeship. About here the widow's identity was lost because she married again and we have no record of the husband's name. : After all the talk and bother and the practical ruin of 100,000 pine trees, all the tar of naval stores that got manufactured was the "three score casks of very good tar" made from the knots the children had gathered. No doubt it was very good tar as pine knots are a fine source of concentrated pitch. This is a record that no one concerned has any reason to be proud of unless it would be the children that gathered the knots. Hunter said that he would have a number of the prepared trees hauled in and would burn them for tar before the eyes of the world to show that he had used every means available to make the project a success--to show that the fault lay in the lack of funds and the laziness of the Palatines and not in his misjudgment as to the type of trees. There is no record that he ever carried out this threat. : The English government, with characteristic nonchalance, had become interested in something else and had entirely forgotten or neglected to provide funds to keep the project running. In that respect Hunter had a just complaint. Later he confessed, or rather stated, that the variety of trees prepared (white pine) would not yield enough tar to justify the expense involved. He said that this must be because the people who had removed the bark had damaged the inner bark. This, of course, was a sorry excuse of a defeated man. He probably did not know enough about the subject to realize that the inner bark had little or nothing to do with the matter. What was needed was that the trees would have to stand for several years to ripen--and there was at least some truth in the statement; white pine would not yield a great amount of tar in any case. : One can easily understand where the difficulty lay. The government did not support the project long enough for the trees to become sufficiently saturated, even had they been proper species. White pine would have yielded at least enough tar to make it look as though someone had really tried, had the trees stood long enough after being prepared. It would have taken a lot of money to sustain 3,000 workers for a number of years. Finally, white pine would never yield pitch or tar in such quantities as the yellow varieties known as pitch pine. Of course, white pine knots would yield tar copiously when gathered where trees had fallen and decayed because all pine knots are abundantly saturated. That source had no commercial importance, however, because there were not enough knots available. : Before the people started for Schohare they sent seven scouts to examine the land, deal with the Indians, if necessary, and find the best route to travel. : They reported they had been received by the Indians with utmost friendliness. That portion of the Schohare Valley that had been granted to the Palatines began on the Little Schohare Creek near the present town of Middleberg, which really marks the beginning of the Schohare River. The actual boundary make at that time was an oak stump, which was burned hollow and had been used as a corn mill by the Mohawk Indians. From there the tract ran down both sides of the river northward for a distance of ten miles and contained about 20,000 acres. By the side of the stump was erected a pile of stones that stood for many years. Upon the stump was cut the figures of a turtle and a snake, the sign of the Kerighodonte tribe serving as a seal and a sign of transfer of title. : The matter immediately above is taken from Sim's History of the Schohare. : He represents this contract of transfer as one made by the Indians and an agent of the Queen, to prevent conflict between the Indians and the Germans. : Thus it would appear that the land had been transfered to the Palatines. : The seven envoys sent out by the Palatines, and headed by John Conrad Weiser, proceeded by way of Albany and there employed an Indian guide. When they reached their destination they marveled at the beauty of the place. The like of it they had seen since leaving the Rhine. Their longing for the Schohare had not been an idle dream. It lay in a broad valley with a background of gentle sloping hills, with fertile meadows and the placid river winding through the center. The Indians informed them that the land had already been transfered to Queen Anne for their use. The first contigent to leave for the Schohare consisted of 50 families who started soon after the scouts returned. They made crude sleds, loaded their meager effects upon them and, pulling them by human strength, moved through three feet of snow towards their dream home, clearing a road as they progressed. They evidently retained the axes with which they bad peeled pine trees and there was plenty of timber along the way, and though they had to sleep in the snow or in hastily constructed lean-tos they could at least have a as great fires as they chose. : Their hardships were grievous but do doubt they had a few thrill- filled hours after reaching their destination. They were at the long journey's end at last where they could build homes and live in peace --- or so they thought. : They had scarcely got started to settle themselves when they were warned by Hunter (still smarting from defeat) not to go upon the land and that he who did would be declared a rebel. They could not think of retracing the long journey, of course, even had they wanted to so there was nothing to do but stay and make the best of it. : How they got through the winter with little or nothing is hardly understandable. There were no immediate shelters available but there was timber within reach. They built great central fires for immediate comfort and then built lean-to's of pine and hemlock branches and what bark could be found. A lean-to with poles for a frame and evergreen branches for a roof and sides and a mat of hemlock boughs on the floor--a big fire in front of that--and you would have a comfortable combination in any language. So comfortable, compared to sleeping in the snow, that a man who's soul had become numbed by hardships and despair could lie with his family safe and warm around him and offer up a prayer of thanks. : The Indians shared their scanty stock of corn with the people. Young Conrad Weiser wrote of it: "We broke ground enough to provide corn for the next winter but the first year our hunger was scarcely endurable." The Indians showed them many edible roots and plants and how to snare game and so most of them survived. : In early spring another contingent made the journey and as usual, when these people went anywhere, it snowed--a heavy late snow of great depth--but they wallowed through : The people finally gathered in seven villages, naming each village, or "drop" as they called them after a leader. Weiser's drop was at the site of the present Middleberg. Fudu's drop (later called Fox drop) was at the junction of Fox creek and the Schohare River. Kniskern's drop was at the mouth of Cobbleskill. : At the present courthouse was another hamlet called Brunner's drop. Those are the locations that we have record of, Fudu's drop or Fox drop was the center of the settlement. On Fox creek was built a grist mill which made it necessary for them to carry their grain to Schenectady. : It was at Fox drop that the people gathered for Sunday worship and on the slight bluff the first church was built in 1772--the Old Stone church which has been rated one of the most picturesque building in the state. I am told that the church has recently been restored to its original condition, mainly through the generous contribution of a Mr. and Mrs. Fowler. Others have made contributions also and the church is now known as the Palatine Shrine. It is open to the public and services are conducted there by courtesy ministers of the surrounding territory. If you are up that way, be sure to stop by the old church. : A man named Bayard came into the valley and laid claim to the territory by reason of an old grant made to his father, who had the reputation of being a knave. : Another, by the name of Vrooman, who cane from Schenectady held title to a tract well up the valley where the township of Middleberg is now located. : He claimed to have purchased his land from the Indians in 1711, which would have been after the Indians had transfered it to the Queen. It developed that his title or claim rested on a patent given him by Hunter and also dated 1711, which gave the entire transaction a bad smell. It lookes as though Hunter was sending them as much trouble as possible or even selling their houses out from under them. Vrooman's personal report of his trouble with the Palatines is rather amusing. He said he had fertilized some of the land to which Hunter had been pleased to give him a patent, and had also weeded it, and they drove their horses over it all night. He said: "I was building a stone house 28 feet square so high as I had laid the beams for the chamber. They had a contrivance to tie bells about their horse's necks. As they drove the horses to and fro they pulled down my house, stones and all, to the ground. They used much rebellious language as I never heard of. John Conrad Weiser has been the ring-leader of all the devilment. They made Indians drunk to the degree to go and make off their land with them. I am in no wise secure of my life. They went and pulled my son off of the wagon and beat him and said they would : kill him or anybody else who came there. Weiser and two or three others have made their escape by way of Boston and said they would go to England but has left his son who is their interpreter to the Indians. Every day he tells lies to the Indians whereby much mischief may ensue, more than we think of, and is much to be feared. : I don't find many concerned with Weiser and his son in their disobedient, unlawful and rebellious proceedings. Those that are good subjects among them and will not join them are afraid the others will burn their houses down with their threatening words." : That must have been pretty hot language. Vrooman was, no doubt, of the old Holland Dutch stock who bought Manhattan Island from the Indians for $25 worth of trinkets. : In 1714 a patent was issued to an Albany group known as the "Five Partners." This patent claimed all of the Schohare tract not claimed by Vrooman. These patents, of course, granted away the very ground on which people had built their houses and every foot of land they had broken for crops. : When the partners with their bogus title had the stage set to their liking, they proceeded to assert their so-called rights. They informed the people that they had obtained the land from Hunter and that all living upon it must either buy or lease their buildings and all who refused to do one or the other must leave the valley. The reply of the people was that the land had been set aside for them by Queen Anne and now it belonged to king, and they could not agree with anyone about King's land. : The partners went to court and, regardless of how unjust their claim, they still held the only title in existence and the court could do nothing but recognize it. : Sheriff Adams appeared in Schohare with legal documents and a special warrant for the arrest of John Conrad for mutinous rioting. The chief culprit was not present but Adams undertook to arrest some others. This brought on a riot by the women, vigorously led by one, Magdalens Zeh. The women attacked the sheriff, knocking him down and beat and kicked him. They dragged him through the nastiest puddles in their barn lots until he was thoroughly and offensively saturated. They then seated him astride a rail and carried him seven miles through the various villages and left him laying on a small bridge with three broken ribs, with cuts and bruises and other unpleasantries. : After they had finished with the sheriff, the people refrained from going outside their boundaries except on the Sabbath, at -which time they fancied they could not be molested. After several months of quiet, they assumed that their violence had been forgotten and a party of men went to Albany to attend to some errands. There the. authorities ganged up on them and threw them all in jail for several days and then released upon an agreement by most of them to acknowledge the title of the Five Partners. This broke the resistance of most of the people. They now realized they were beaten, no matter how unjustly. : About this tire there was an important Meeting in Albany attended by the important Indian chiefs, the new governor of New York Bennet, and other personages. Among them was Sir William Keith, governor of Pennsylvania. Keith heard the many versions of the Palatines story and his reaction was in their favor. He invited them to Pennsylvania where he promised they would be kindly and fairly treated as their countrymen already in Pennsylvania had been. : It is a pleasant diversion from the predominant tone of this story to be able to relate that there is on record of anyone of these people from Schohare ever having difficulties with the Pennsylvania authorities. Records tend to show that in 1723, after the people had admitted their defeat, they became divided into three factions. There was those who chose to remain and make the best terms they could with the usurpers. Others could not content them-selves to submit to such humiliating treatment and they began to tighten their belts for another removal. : Some of them went up the Mohawk River to land they personally acquired from the Indians. The remainder chose Pennsylvania. : These people, beset as they were with endless difficulties, had managed to acquire some livestock and some tools to build homes and churches and so on in a period of ten years. How they did it is beyond me. All I can offer is that their extreme difficulties, rather than discouraging them, spurred them to increased efforts in strength, endurance and management, rather than the reverse. : It seems that they chanced to get their feet on solid ground and started at once to move ahead. They seem to quite generally develops genius for good judgement, expediency and a capacity for hard work. One can see unmistakable evidence of this by driving through the communities where they settled. Here and there their genius shows through to this day : Probably 300 elected to remain in Schohare and life there steeled down to a somewhat quieter pattern That though is getting a little ahead of the story and there is another matter that demands attention. : Johann George Loesch had finished his apprenticeship some tome during the intervening years and had joined his family in the Schohare. Regardless of the turbulent times there, he found time to court and marry a Palatine maid, Anna Christina Walborn. If I were that sort of writer I might dream up and insert a romantic story concerning this important pair. However 1 am not inclined to fiction. All I can write is the little I know and I know nothing of their intimate love life. I assume that considerable personal attraction must have existed between them for they lived together for 61 years and begot 11 sons and daughters. : Of the Palatines who went up the Mohawk River we know very little. Their land was 24 miles west of Little Falls, on both sides of the river. To this region the group moved in 1725 and 1726. The main settlement was on the north side of the river and in time recieved the name of Herkimer. This was in honor of that colorful gentleman who was "Strong Man" of the Palatines of the Mohawk. : As was characteristic of those people once they were settled in peaceful surroundings, they immediately began to prosper. In 30 years they had substantial buildings, well tilled fields and plenty of livestock. Then came the French and Indian war. : M. de Belletre with a force of Indians and Canadians came by way of the Black River and pounced on the settlement on the north side of the Mohawk. They burned every building and drove off or killed all of the livestock. Some of the people were killed and about 100 prisoners were taken. The majority of the people saved themselves by crossing the river to a fort on the south side. : Next spring a party of a few French and many Indians appeared. Their approach was detected and Captain Herkimer (general to be) collected most of the people within the fort. The attack was repelled but 30 people were killed and practically everything outside was destroyed. Next year the power of the French in America was broken and the prisoners came back. The next eruption in the lives of the people was the Revolutionary War. The Palatines stood by their country almost to a man. : During the interval between the Indian raids and the Revolution, (read Drums Along the Mohawk) nine companies of infantry had been organized and trained. First came Brandt rampaging down the Mohawk with his English and Indians. He seemingly did not like the appearance of Herkimer's militia and passed them by, but he made a side trip up the Schohare valley and attacked the fort that had been built at Middleburg but was driven off. As a momento of his visit he placed a cannon ball in the frieze of the old stone church at Fox Drop, It may still be there. : When St. Ledger invaded New York from Canada in 1777 he was met at Criskany and defeated. The Palatines were there led by their General Herkimer. The beloved Herkimer was wounded in the battle and finally died, but St Ledger was soundly trounced and driven back into Canada. This defeat, followed by the capture of Saratoga, broke the English strength in the New England states and changed the pattern of the war. : The intent of this work is not a complete History of the Palatines; that story has been written by several persons. It is only intended to follow my family line through many adversities to their final, permanent establishment in America and reaching out here and there for side issues that may be of interest. : Therefore I must hurry back to the Schohare. While leaving the Mohawk Valley, let us glance at a matter that is rather annoying; History gave the location of the Old Stone Church as being in the Schohare Valley near the mouth of Fox Creek, as I have said. I had a recent communication from Reverend Wilmer N. Zuehike of Schenectady. which seems to locate the church near the Palatine Bridge on the Mohawk, five miles west of Schenectady. I am confused about this but I am sure that if anyone inquires at Schenectady about the Old Stone Church they will have no trouble finding it. : The Palatines who had elected to go to Pennsylvania left the Schohare in 1723, led by Hartman Vinedecher. They followed Schohare Creek for a distance south and then, guided by an Indian, they crossed the mountains to the watershed of the Susquehanna. I seem to remember reading somewhere that they followed a Creek that was a tributary to the Susquehanna cutting a road through the woods as they went. That would, no doubt, have been Charlotte Creek, and they would reach the Susquehanna at (now) Oneonta. There they built crude rafts and floated down the Susquehanna, driving their livestock along the shore. It is rumored that about a year after reaching their destination twelve of their horses disappeared and 18 months afterwards they all, save one, appeared back at Schohare. They must have liked the Schohare meadows. : In time the rafts reached Sawatara Creek which flows into the Susquehanna near Harrisburg. They poled, pulled and pusher their rafts as far up its winding channel as they could and then, by means that we do not know about, finally reached the valley of the Tulpehocked Creek. There they settled down and, as it developed, their wanderings, privations and abuse ended. : At Schohare, those who lingered, hoping that conditions might improve found that such change was slow in coming and in 1728 many of them followed the others to the Tulpehocked, led by Conrad Weiser (Jr.) who had now grown to manhood. During Weiser's youth, he had been temporarily adopted by a Mohawk Chief and there learned several Indian dialects and won life-long friendship. This increased his usefulness in his peculiar position of magistrate, interpreter and diplomat. His uncommon, genuine thoughtfulness and moral stability made him one of the busiest and most outstanding characters of Pennsylvania colonial history. With one of the two parties mentioned as arriving at the Tulpehocked was Johann George Loesch and wife and his two brothers. : From here on I will not make any special effort to follow the fortunes of the two brothers but will concentrate on Johann George and his descendants, as he was the direct ancestor of our line in America. : One should not be confused at this point as to the choice of ancestors as it is really quite clear. Johann Adam Loesch and his wife had seven daughters and one son, who died young, leaving a wife and one daughter. Wilhelm Loesch the other brother had one son, Johann Peter. He is known to have lived to the age of 69 but nothing is known of his marriage or of any offspring. : Conrad Weiser settled and founded the town of Womelsdorf just off highway 422 as you drive from Harrisburg. Between the highway and the town is Weiser Memorial Park. Therein stands the original Weiser Home and a fitting monument. Also, there is an interesting museum and a cemetery where the Weiser family and some of their Indian friends lie. If you drive east from Harrisburg by all means drop in and visit Weiser Park and so pay homage to this man who, regardless of what others have omitted to say, was one of America's greats-great in morals, great in natural wisdom, great in honor and diplomacy and great in the development of human characteristics. : Before coming to Weiser Park, you come to the town of Stouchesburg, which is also just off the highway. Less than a quarter mile from this town there is a side road and on that corner a cemetery. Here is the site where the Palatines built one of the very first churches. In the cemetery lie a host of the original Patatine Pilgrims, resting quietly at last. The Loesch family settled near by, but just where no one knows. They set to and helped build the church which was recently torn down and moved to Syouchesburgh. It seems that the early comers settled mostly around Stoughesburg, Womelsdorf, Lebanon and Meyerstown and spread rapidly. I made a journey through the area but was too hurried to learn a great deal, but traces of them can be found from the Blue Mountains on the north to Reading on the south and east to Eaton. : Anyone who may desire additional reading on the subject herein touched upon, I recommend "Early Eighteenth Century Emigrants" by Walter Knittle, Ph.D. published by Dart & Co. It can be borrowed from the state library at Harrisburg, PA (I believe) by request through a local library. In this book Mr. Kittle furnishes all the referneces and scholarly details that anyone could wish, a task that I neither have the time nor the inclination to attempt. : I do not wish to enter into the task of listing all of the descendants of the Loesch family. It would require all of my remaining time on earth and, if I ever finished it, the reward would be meager. There are thousands of Loesch descendants scattered over the earth and I cannot travel widely. Also, the family, for some reason, characteristically reluctant to answer letters, taking in most cases from a few months to several years and many of them do not answer at all. Sinve the job is so impossible and since they are so unconcerned, I list what I can--those that I know or can reach or that I have record of. Others should be able to keep a record of their own families, and if they fail to do so--well I should worry. : The above I copied from (Leaves from the Loesch (Lesh) Family Tree) compiled in 1963 by Benjamin W. Lesh Buffalo St. Franklin Pennsylvania Gilbert L. Lesh

:: It seems to me that the spelling of the family name was changed some time during the Revolutionary War. I found the names of Balthazar and his two sons Jacob and Peter mentioned as Loesch (Lesh) 1-2c-3h Balthazar Loesch (Lash) had six sons, three by his first wife and three by his second wife. They were John, Benjamin, Jacob, Peter, George and Balthazar Jr. :: They all changed to Lesh But Benjamin. He spelled his name Lesch. Balthazar's brother Jacob, went to North Carolina and changed his name to Lash. I have found five different Lesh's who came to America with the name and were not of our line and also some Lash's that were not of our line. :: My name is Robert Gene Kyte. My mother was an older sister of the dear man who did the masterful job of copying Benjamin W. Lesh's work. Unfortunately, so many copies were made that the one I borrowed was faint so I had to guess as to the spelling in some places."

[[Category: Longan Name Study]] [[Category: One Name Studies]] [[Category: DNA Projects]] == Longan One Name Study == === Scope === The scope of this study is to research the Longan last name within the United States, and any immigration to the United States. === How to Join === Please contact the project leader [[Weddington-53|Eric Weddington]] or post a comment. If you have any questions, just ask. Thanks! === Goals === #Source any unsourced family member #Connect any unconnected family member to one of the oldest Longan lineages in the United States #Discover the relationship between the oldest Longan individuals within the United States and any immigration to the United States === Adding a Profile to this Study === Please avoid adding every Longan profile to this Study. See '''List of Longan Profiles''' below, to get a sorted list of every Longan profile on WikiTree. The criteria for adding a Longan profile to the study are: # Add a Longan profile to this study if their Longan ancestor is currently unknown. # Add a Longan profile to this study if they are Adopted. See the "Adopted" section below for more information. # The top level progenitors of the main Longan families have already been added to the study. To add your ancestor to this study, simply copy the following template to the Biography section of his or her profile:

{{One Name Study|name=Longan|category=Longan Name Study}}

Once the profile is connected to the main Longan family line, then remove the template from the profile. === Process === # Take existing Longan profiles on WikiTree, and use records found on FamilySearch.org, and Find A Grave, to reconstruct pedigree as much as possible # Find other Longans on FamilySearch.org and Find A Grave, add them to WikiTree, reconstruct pedigree or find where they fit in existing families # Find any historical newspaper references to any Longan in the United States # Find any histories of the Longan family, whether books, previous personal research, or other written materials. Use these to compare against primary records. == Longan Genealogy == The Longan surname seems to be Irish in origin. It is likely similar to the surname "Langan", which some research has shown that it too is Irish in origin, and likely pronounced the same way. More research needs to be done to determine if "Longan" is a spelling variant when families immigrated to America. === History === There is a primary Longan family in the United States, with (currently) one other family that immigrated separately. The progenitor of the primary Longan family in the United States is supposedly [[Longan-116|Thomas Longan]] (1670 - 1740). Currently we don't have sources to prove his existence, but he was supposedly born in Ireland and died in Virginia. Thomas supposedly had a son, [[Longan-115|Augustine K. Longan]] (1710 - 1774). Again, we currently do not have sources to prove his existence, but he was supposedly born in Virginia, and died in Virginia. It is interesting to note the name 'Augustine' is a recurring name in the Longan family. Augustine supposedly had two sons, [[Longan-22|Patrick Henry Longan]] (1742 - 1804), and [[Longan-185|Edmund D. Longan]] (1772 - 1849). [[Longan-22|Patrick Henry Longan]], and his [https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Longan-Descendants-22 descendants], seem to be well documented, as he served in the Revolutionary War. The majority of the Longan family in the United States can be traced to Patrick Henry Longan. [[Longan-185|Edmund D. Longan]] is not well documented, but he has [https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Longan-Descendants-185 descendants] that are documented. If Edmund D. Longan is a brother of Patrick Henry Longan, then it is interesting to note that they were born essentially 30 years apart. This calls into question if they are actually siblings, and who Edmund's parents actually are. This needs more research. Perhaps the best way to determine if descendants of [[Longan-185|Edmund D. Longan]] and [[Longan-22|Patrick Henry Longan]] are related is through a DNA test. Research has uncovered another Longan immigrant from Ireland, [[Longan-348|John Longan]]. This person is also unsourced, but has [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Longan-348#Descendants descendants]. === Intermarriage with the Bowles Family, Knight, and Weber === There are at least 4 marriages with the Bowles family, including two wives, who are Bowles, early in the Longan genealogy: * [[Longan-22|Patrick Henry Longan]] married '''[[Bowles-2226|Mary Elizabeth Bowles]]''' in Hanover County, Virginia * Patrick's son, [[Longan-6|John Bowles Longan Sr.]] married '''[[Bowles-1476|Mary Weber Bowles]]''', both born in Virginia * Patrick's daughter, [[Longan-36|Elizabeth Longan]] married '''[[Bowles-1546|John Bowles]]''', both born in Virginia, and died in Dade County, Missouri * Later in Colorado, [[Longan-87|Mahala Elizabeth Longan]] married '''[[Bowles-2227|Edward Bruce Bowles]]'''. The name "Bowles" shows up as a middle name repeatedly in the Longan family. We don't yet know the full pedigree of [[Bowles-2226|Mary Elizabeth Bowles]], [[Bowles-1476|Mary Weber Bowles]], [[Bowles-1546|John Bowles]], nor [[Bowles-2227|Edward Bruce Bowles]]. However, there is a prominent, and prolific, Bowles family in Virginia, that goes back a long way. [[Bowles-2227|Edward Bruce Bowles]] is said to descend from Bowles in Virginia. Interestingly, one such family is [[Bowles-322|John Bowles]] who married [[Knight-1322|Sarah Knight]], probably in the early 1700s. The name "Knight" shows up in the Longan family and is repeatedly passed down among family members. Could there be a connection to this [[Bowles-322|John Bowles]] and [[Knight-1322|Sarah Knight]]? The name Knight also shows up in the Bowles family as well. At one point the last name "Webber" or "Weber" also shows up in the Bowles family. Much research is needed to connect all of these lines together. === List of Longan Profiles === [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Surname&s=LONGAN&limit=5000&cln=1&order=dobup List of Longan Profiles on WikiTree], sorted in birth order, including current last name === Oldest in the United States === * [[Longan-116|Thomas Longan]] (1670 - 1740) '''(Unsourced)''' - [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Longan-116#Descendants Descendant List] ** [[Longan-115|Augustine K.

It sometimes has identical spellings in different countries, but quite different meanings! If English it is usually spelled Low or Lowe, and derives from the pre-7th-century word 'hlaw, meaning a prominent small hill, a barrow or burial mound, and hence somebody who lived by such a place. The Lowe family lived in Worcestershire. The earliest instances of the name in England appear for the most part to be of local origin; that is, derived from the name of the place where an original bearer lived or where he once held land, the place in this instance being a hlaw, the Old English word for a hill. Early Origins of the Lowe family. == Early Origins of the Lowe family== '''The surname Lowe was first found in Bohemia, where the Lowe family became a prominent contributor to the development of the district from ancient times.''' Always prominent in social affairs, the family became an integral part of that turbulent region as it emerged to form alliances with other families within the Feudal System and the nation. One of the earliest recorded Bohemian bearers of the name was Hensel Lebel, who lived in Budweis in 1387. ==Early Notables of the Lowe family (pre-1700)== '''During this early period, notable bearers of the name Lowe included Leon Loewe von Rozmital (around 1465)''' whose famous descriptions of the Holy Land through which he traveled were translated into many languages, his daughter became the Queen of Bohemia; Hans Leu, The Elder. == Old Norse== However, in all countries it may be a medieval nickname, derived from the Old Norse word 'lagr, meaning low or short, and hence probably given to a tall person! The Norman French word 'lou', meaning wolf is also a possibility as a nickname in all countries. If so it described a ferocious individual, or again probably the reverse. In countries whose language is primarily German-based the surname is recorded in many forms including Low, Lowe, Leeb (Germany), Lob and Lobe (Alsace), Leue, Leeuw, Leeuwink, Leeuwerink, Louw (Dutch), Lev (Czech) and others. Here it may derive from the pre-medieval word 'lewo' meaning a lion, and hence was a name given to a brave or regal person. This explanation may have some connection with the Ashkenasic word 'leyb' and the lion of Judah. ==Scottish== '''Lastly, the name can be Scottish in origin, and a short form of the male given name Lawrence.''' The first recorded spelling of the family name anywhere in the world may be that of John le Lu. This was dated 1207, in the Pipe Rolls of the county of Gloucestershire, during the reign of King John of England, 1199 - 1216. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling. include Low, Lowes, and Lowis. This name is of Anglo-Saxon descent spreading to the Celtic countries of Ireland, Scotland and Wales in early times and is found in many medieval manuscripts throughout these countries. ==German== '''The distinguished surname Lowe is derived from the Middle High German "lewe," meaning "lion''.''' Luh-veh is actually the correct German pronunciation. The umlaut (the two little dots on top of the O) means its actually written Loewe. Ws are pronounced like Vs in German so Luh-veh is the correct pronunciation. In countries whose language is primarily German-based the surname is recorded in many forms including Low, Lowe, Leeb (Germany), Lob and Lobe (Alsace), Leue, Leeuw, Leeuwink, Leeuwerink, Louw (Dutch), Lev (Czech) and others. Here it may derive from the pre-medieval word 'lewo' meaning a lion, and hence was a name given to a brave or regal person. This explanation may have some connection with the Ashkenasic word 'leyb' and the lion of Judah. ==Lowe migration to the United States== '''Lowe Settlers in the United States in the 17th Century'''

Sometime in May, the "John and William" departed Rotterdam and sailed, to Dover, England. Then around June 20th, it began the transatlantic crossing, which turned into 17 grueling weeks at sea, before the survivors set foot in America. But Rotterdam and the deadly voyage to America had not been the beginning of their sojourn. The majority of the refugees were Protestant and descended from Germanic families in Switzerland, the German-Swiss. They had originally relocated to the Palatinate also known as German Pfalz. The Pfalz had historically been the lands of Count Palatine and they lie largely in Southwestern Germany. The area occupies more than a quarter of the contemporary German-federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate. There was mutiny abroad the ship and suffering that was unbearable. To read more about their journey click on these links. http://www.belizebreeze.com/bushongunited/voyage.html, http://www.belizebreeze.com/bushongunited/voyage2.html. ==History of the Palatine Immigration to Pennsylvania== At different periods, various causes and diverse motives induced Germans to abandon their Vaterland. Since 1606, millions have left their homes, the dearest spots on earth, whither the heart always turns. Religious persecution, political oppression drove thousands to Pennsylvania - to the asylum from the harassed and depressed sons and daughters of the relics of the Reformation, whither William Penn himself invited the persecuted of every creed and religious opinion. From 1682 to 1776, Pennsylvania was the central point of emigration from Germany, France, and Switzerland. Penn's liberal views, and illiberal course of the government of New York toward the Germans, induced many to come to this Province. The period from 1702 - 1727 marks an era in the early German emigration. Between forty and fifty thousand left their native country "their hearths where soft affections dwell." The unparalleled ravages and desolations by the troops of Louis XIV under Turenne were the stern prelude to bloody persecutions. To escape the dreadful sufferings awaiting them, German and other Protestants emigrated to the English colonies in America. In 1705, a number of German Reformed residing between Wolfenbuttel and Halberstadt fled to Neuwied, a town of Rhenish Prussia, where they remained some time, and then went to Holland - there embarked, in 1707, for New York. Their frail ship was, by reason of adverse winds, carried into the Delaware Bay. Determined, however, to reach the place for which they were destined - to have a home among the Dutch, they took the overland route from Philadelphia to New York. On entering the fertile, charming valley in New Jersey, which is drained by the meandering Musconctcong, the Passaic and their tributaries, and having reached a goodly land, they resolve to remain in what is now known as the German Valley of Morrison county. From this point, the Germans have spread into Somerset, Bergan, and Essex counties. At Elizabethtown, where the first English settlement was made in New Jersey, 1664, there were many Germans prior to 1730. There was also a German settlement at a place known as Hall Mill, which is some thirty miles from Philadelphia.

Please contact me, [[Lowman-777|Laurie Lowman ]] or post a comment at the foot of the page if you would like to participate. ==The Lowman Study== The German name means Forest Dweller or Forest Man. There are at least 3 different Lowman families. One came from the area Wells, England, a second y. Most Dutch spell their name with H as in Lahmann. All English Lowmans spell it Lowman. As for the Germans, you will find a number of different spellings. The original spelling was Lauman or Laumann. Some still spell it that way. In North Carolina they started to spell it Lowman. In Georgia we Larman first appear. You will also see several other short-lived variations. [http://www.angelfire.com/ga3/LowmanHistory/ Lowman Family History]

[[Category:Lunn Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] ==Background== This is a study dedicated to studying the origins and distribution of the Lunn family and it's descendants. The earliest known Lunns in our family group migrated from North Carolina to Tennessee. Before that, we do not know their origins. These are:
#[[Lunn-183|William Lunn]], (b. 1802) who married Esther Graham #[[Lunn-395|John Lunn]], (b. 1798) who married Eleanor Graham #[[Lunn-50|Eli Lunn]], (born 1806) who married Elizabeth Glasscock (a daughter of Elizabeth Graham) We believe these 3 are brothers, sons of [[Lunn-273|John Lunn]] of North Carolina. There are some issues with the children of these men. There is a John A. Lunn we cannot figure out. Hopefully by putting it all together here, we will be able to work through it. ==The curious case of John A. Lunn== There are 3 men named John A Lunn in Middle Tennessee, at the same time. #[[Lunn-182|John A. Lunn]] (5 Jan 1838 to 14 Nov 1926): married 1862 to Mary E. White (1843-?) #[[Lunn-448|John A. Lunn]] (Jan 1842 to 14 Nov 1926); married 1880 to Callie Sparkman (1858-1919) #[[Lunn-410|John A. Lunn]] (24 Aug 1842 to 27 Sep 1882); married 26 Dec 1860 to Mary A.M. Bradley (1846-1917) (All census records in Williamson County for this couple, and for them as children) - this John was son of William Lunn - birthdates match, as do locations and census records - I am confident this was son of William. '''Theory'''
[[Binkley-335|Binkley-335]] 20:31, 14 September 2016 (EDT) I think [[Lunn-182|John A Lunn-182]] and [[Lunn-448|John A Lunn-448]] are the same person. Look at the dates. Too similar! And the death dates are the same. That can't be a coincidence. Perhaps he was married to Mary White first, then to Callie Sparkman? The 1890 census is gone, so we can't see where he was from 1880-1900. That's a BIG gap. =='''Evidence'''== ===Lunn-182=== [[Lunn-182|Lunn-182]] - This John A Lunn married Mary White in 1862, Marshall County. There are census records for 1870 and 1880 (shown below) then there are no records of him at all until the 1920 census when he shows up as living with his daughter Martha and her family.

[[Category:Lunsford Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] I am attempting to encourage other Lunsford's and Lunceford's to do Y DNA testing. The purpose of this project is to give us a place to discuss how the surnames are actually interchangeable, how they split, and through Y DNA testing how we can bring the groups together. My GG Grandfather Robert H (R.H) Lunsford was either displaced or ran away from home and no certainty has been achieved in determining his lineage. Y DNA testing confirms he was a Lunsford but his lineage has not been confirmed. See Lunsford-811 Sadly there are others out there that uncertain about their lineage. For example Nimrod Lunsford is attributed with three wives and between 29 to 32 children. Only through Dna testing can we hope to unravel his mystery. I wish he was the only one but research shows other examples. So lets use this space to give us a common place to unravel he mysteries and come together. Bill Lunsford

As a One Name Study, this project is not limited to persons who are related biologically. Individual [[#Research_Pages|studies]] can be used to branch out the research into specific methods and areas of interest, such as geographically (England Lupini's), by time period (18th Century Lupini's), or by topic (Lupini DNA, Lupini Occupations, Lupini Statistics). These studies may also include a number of family branches which have no immediate link with each other. Some researchers may even be motivated to go beyond the profile identification and research stage to compile fully sourced, single-family histories of some of the families they discover through this name study project.

[[Category:Lützenburger Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] __NOTOC__ ==Welcome to the Lützenburger Name Study== My aim is to collect Lützenbergers, Litzenburgers, Luxemburgers etc. everywhere and to try to connect them into families. I started this Name Study because I have Lützenburger ancestors and have found so many branches in my area alone that it is difficult to keep up! Also I hope that this will help researchers from other countries whose Lützenburger ancestors migrated from Germany. I include spouses as this might show how families continued to marry into each other. Most of my ancestors were millers in the Hunsrück area. But if you have Lützenbergers in your family tree, too, feel free to add profiles to the name study! Contact me if you want to cooperate further than that. Also see the list of profiles associated with this name study at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:L%C3%BCtzenburger_Name_Study. ===Meaning of the last name Lützenburger and its variants=== According to Wikipedia, a toponymic surname or topographic surname is a surname derived from a place name. This can include specific locations, such as the individual's place of origin, residence, or of lands that they held, or can be more generic, derived from topographic features. Middle High German "lützel", "lützelig" means small, little. "burg" means castle. This the word itself means "small castle". The names Lützenberger, Litzenberger, Lützelberger etc. are such topograhic surnames. Names like this were given to people who had migrated to Germany from Luxembourg or similarly named places. Quite often you'll find a Lützenburger mentioned in a church book as "Luxemburger". Luxemburger in the dialect of the Hunsrück, Saarland and Mosel areas of Germany is often pronounced similar to "Litzeburjer", and the priest might have written down what he heard. My possible ancestor Stephan de Lützelburg, though, came from Lützelbourg/Alsace and thus was named Lützelburger. He passed on this name to his descendants, and it was changed slightly over the centuries or depending on the priest who documented events in the church book. ===Places called "Lützenburg" and similar=== *'''Lützelburg''', remains of a hilltop enclosure near Mellnau, Marburg, Hessen *'''Lützelburg''', a castle ruin near Marburg, Hessen *'''Lützelburg''', a lost castle near Velburg, Bavaria, Germany *'''Lützelburg''', now part of Gablingen near Augsburg, Bavaria, Germany *'''Lützelburg''', a lost castle in Kempten/Allgäu, Bavaria, Germany *'''Luxemburg''', a European state bordering on Belgium, France and Germany. Also the name of its capital and of the castle that was the foundation of Luxembourg city *'''Lutzelbourg''', a village in Lorraine, Eastern France, Département Moselle, with a castle named the same *'''Lützelburg''', a castle ruin near Ottrott, Alsace, France ==Litzenbergers in Germany== According to an article by Günter Weinsheimer, the ancestor of the Litzenberger families in the Hunsrück area of Germany was [[Lützelburg-1|Stephan de Lützelburg]], second son of a count from Lützelbourg/Alsace-Lorraine, who left his home around 1600 and migrated to Gemünden in Germany where he owned a mill. Many Litzenbergers in this area were millers indeed. This should be proved by more sources. Lützenberger families should be connected to see if there were more migrations, maybe from Luxembourg, too. ===Litzenberger Notables in Germany=== '''Heinrich von Lützelburg''', bishop of Semgallen, Kurland and Chiemsee and member of the Franciscan order. Heinrich came from the noble family of the Lützelburger. He died on 8 Feb 1274. He was probably buried in abbey church Herrenchiemsee. Source: https://www.wikiwand.com/de/Heinrich_von_L%C3%BCtzelburg '''Hans Lützelburger''', also Hans Leuczellburger or Hans Franck, was a German form cutter known for his wood cuts executed for Hans Holbein. Hans was probably from Luxembourg. He was born around 1495 and died in June 1526 in Basel/Switzerland. Source: https://www.wikiwand.com/de/Hans_L%C3%BCtzelburger '''Helmer von Lützelburg''', born 1956, is a German director, screen writer and film producer. Source: https://www.wikiwand.com/de/Helmer_von_L%C3%BCtzelburg '''The noble family of Lützelburg''' There are three noble families named von Lützelburg. One of these died out in 1149. Another one is the dynastic house Haus Luxemburg which was often called Haus Lützelburg but does not seem to be related. The third noble family came from Lorraine originally, some of its members in Bavaria and Saxony also became well-known. Originally they seem to have been serving the afore-mentioned noble family which died out. The family took their name from the Lützelburg, a parish which nowadays belongs to France, in Arrondissement Sarrebourg in the East of Département Moselle. From early on members of this family also settled in neighbouring areas. In the 17th century branches of the family spread to Oberlausitz, now part of Saxony/Germany and Poland. Members of this last noble family should be listed as profiles on Wikitree if there is enough data to start a profile. If not, they can be listed here. If you are interested in nobility and can help, I'd be glad about that as I have not much knowledge about or interest in noble families. Also I do not have clearance to create pre-1500 profiles. *'''Thimo, Albertus and Humfridus de Lutzenlburg''', mentioned in 1166, are the first members recorded. ''(Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%BCtzelburg_(Adelsgeschlecht))'' *The genealogy starts with '''Egenolf/Eginolf von Lützelburg''', first mentioned in a document in 1330. He was a "bischöflich Straßburg" vassal in Zabern and from 1350 in Imlingen. He was married to Elsen von Heringen and died in 1371. ''(Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%BCtzelburg_(Adelsgeschlecht))'' *'''Heinrich von Lützelburg''' (fifth generation descendant of Egenolf) became governor in Saarburg in 1520, and his son '''Friedrich von Lützelburg''', ruler of Imlingen and Sareck, became Lord High Steward. ''(Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%BCtzelburg_(Adelsgeschlecht))'' *Friedrich's grandsons '''Ernst Christoph, Friedrich Wlhelm and Johann Weigand''', all sons of '''Anton von Lützelburg''', founded the three main lines and also several offshoots of the family.

Godchild: Wolff Christian Sigmund von Künßberg. ''Source: https://www.online-ofb.de/famreport.php?ofb=kulmbach&ID=I11902'' *[[Lützelburg-4|Anton Friedrich von Lützelburg]], bailiff in Baden/Germany *[[Lützelburg-3|Philipp von Lützelburg]], German botanist *[[Lützelburg-1|Stephan de Lützelburg]] ===Litzenberger millers in the Hunsrück area=== [[Lützelburg-1|Stephan de Lützelburg]] migrated from Lützelbourg in Alsace-Lorraine around 1600 and settled on a mill in Gemünden. He might be the father of [[Litzenburger-4|Johann Philipp]] and [[Lützelburg-2|Hans Adam]]. But in Philipp's marriage record in Lauterecken church book, his parents are mentioned as [[Lützelburger-1|Hans Lützelburger]] and his wife Christina. Hans seems to have died early, as Christina remarried in 1639. Maybe there were two Philipps in the area during that time who have been connected by mistake into one person. Anyway, there are many Litzenbergers on IGI but there seem to be so many mistakes in this early phase - it would be necessary to check all the original church book entries. Of Stephan's or Hans' possible descendants, [[Lützenburger-83|Michel Lützenberger]] moved to Neubrücke near Hoppstädten-Weiersbach. Another branch, probably connected to Stephan or Hans, starts with [[Litzenburger-9|Johann Nikolaus Litzenberger]] and his wife Anna Margaretha Rockenbach in Tiefenbach near Simmern. Johann Nikolaus was calvinist. Another branch is located in Offenbach am Glan and surrounding villages. It starts with [[Litzenberger-95|Johann Adam Litzenberger]], born before 1690. [[Lützenburger-69|Johann Wilhelm Lützenburger]] and [[Lützenburger-7|Goswin Lützenburger]] brought the family name from the area around Morbach to Thalfang and surrounding villages.

[[Category:Lynn Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] [[Category:Ayrshire, Scotland]] == ORIGIN OF THE NAME == It is true that geography often generated surnames when surnames came into use, and the long-held view that the Lynns of that Ilk in Ayrshire took their name from their property seems logical. Surprisingly, however, Lynn or Lyne was a Scottish surname before the family settled in Ayrshire. The registers of both the bishops of Glasgow and Newbattle Abbey include charters which recite the late 12th to early 13th-century lineage Robert de Lyne, his son David de Lyne, and David’s son Robert de Lyne.https://archive.org/stream/registrumepiscop01bann#page/n6/mode/1up : "Registrum Episcopatus Glasguensis. Munimenta Ecclesie Metropolitane Glasguensis", Printed for The Bannatyne Club, Edinburgh (1843), pp. 72-77, https://archive.org/stream/registrumsmaried00bann#page/9/mode/1up : "Registrum Sancte Marie de Neubotle, 1140-1528", Printed for The Bannatyne Club, Edinburgh (1849), pp.10-13 Beginning about 1175, or perhaps earlier, the family lived in Peeblesshire and held two properties there as well as one near Edinburgh. It is not until the late 13th century that we see the Lynns of Ayrshire in surviving records, but Sir Robert Douglas, Baronet and author of at least one peerage accounted, asserted in 1795 that the Ayrshire Lynns of that Ilk were in fact a branch of the de Lyne family of Peeblesshire.Douglas, Sir Robert, Baronet, "The Genealogy of the Family of Lind, and the Montgomeries of Smithton", Windsor (1795), pp. 1-4. See [[Lyne-123 | Robert Lyne]]. Thus, it would seem that the Lynn estate in Dalry, Ayrshire acquired its name from the family and not vice versa. It is important to note that spelling of surnames was entirely inconsistent in the medieval and renaissance periods, and the Lynns of that Ilk in Ayrshire are found in various records as Lyn, Lyne, Lynn, and Lynne with just a few occurrences of Lin or Linn. == SCOPE OF THE STUDY == This One Name Study is about the Lynn/Lyne/Linn family who lived in Ayrshire, Scotland. While the end date of this study is 1900, the title "of that Ilk" became extinct for the family in 1670 with the death of Andrew Lynn of that Ilk. The year 1900 is provided in order to include profiles for all Lynns/Lynes/Linns who lived in Ayrshire before the end of the 19th century. One of the goals of this study is to discover the connection between: (1) the Lynns of that Ilk in Dalry, who held the minor barony of Lynn beginning in the 13th century but moved to the town of Irvine, Ayrshire in the early 17th century; and (2) others of the name(s) who lived in Irvine, Ayrshire as early as the 16th century. Our aim is to collect together in one place everything about the surname Lynn and its variants in Ayrshire, Scotland during the period described above. The hope is that other researchers, like you, will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Proving father-son relationships during this period is extremely difficult and often impossible, but it is not necessary to have a generational link in order to add a particular profile to the project. Please do ''not'' add a family relationship without primary sources. Please do contact the project leader and/or add categories to your profiles, questions to the bulletin board, details of your name research, etc. == SELECTED PROFILES == : [[Lynne-48 | Walter Lynne]] (bef. 1270 - aft. 1300) : [[Lynn-1014 | Roland Lynn]] (abt. 1400 - bef. 1453) : [[Lynn-1036 | John Lynn]] (bef. 1580 - bef. 1622) : [[Lynn-1044 | John Lynn]] (bef. 1578 - bef. 1632) : [[Lynn-1041 | William (Lynn) Lyne]] (abt. 1600 - aft. 15 Jul 1630) : [[Lynn-165 | Andrew Lynn]] (abt. 1605 - 1670) == Sources ==

Spelling Differences among names are usually trivial no matter how much pride a person has in a particular version. Most of our ancestors were illiterate until recently, especially if they were Gaelic speakers. Most Gaels were not taught to read or write their own language. In contrast with English, Gaelic speakers place more emphasis on the spoken language than on the written form. This means that Gaelic spelling is constantly being modified to match the spoken form, Irish in 1948 and Scottish Gaelic in 1982. However, there are constant revisions and up-dates. In addition, Gaelic speakers did not need nor use family names until they began to interact with the English speaking culture. The Gaelic naming system is quite different and either shows a person’s lineage or some personal attribute. “Donald of the race of Donald”. “Donald, Son of John”, and “Donny Little” all might be the same person. Landholders were known by the name of their holdings — “Locheil”, “Corriemony”, “Keppoch”. Most persons first had their names written for them by others — ministers, schoolmasters, government officials or ship captains. These people wrote as they heard the name., often differently from one time to the next. In modern spellings, one can find the second part of the surname capitalised or in lower case, “MacBryde” and “Macbryde”. This style was adopted in the nineteenth century to distinguish between a person who was actually the son of a man named Donald (Mac Donald) or one of the general clan surname (Macbryde). This soon lost its meaning. == Goals == This is a One-Name Study to collect together in one place everything about the surname McBride/Macbryde and its variants. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. ===Meaning=== As a Scottish name, McBride is derived from the Gaelic "Mac Gille Brighde," meaning "son of the servant of (St.) Brigit." The Scottish Gaelic word for church "cill Bríghde," became a place name (Kilbride, in Lanarkshire) and some bearers of McBride may have originally taken their surnames from this. ===Origin=== The name's earliest recorded roots are from County Donegal in Ireland. According to legend, both the Scottish and the Irish branches are descended from the son of the servant of (St.) Brigit, the virgin Abbess of Kildare who died 525 A.D. Gaelic Mac Brighde for earlier Mac GilleBrighde, 'son of the servant of Bride,' virgin abbess of Kildare who died 525 A.D. Cristinus McBryd, a man of Thomas de Moravia, had remission of a fine in 1329 (ER., I, p. 592). Giolla Calluim mc ilebhride mhic Phersoin chille-comain (Ref. Celt., I, p. 136). John McGilbride was captain of Bute, 1370—75, and Macbride is an old name in Arran. In 1684 the name appears as McBryd, McBrid, and McKbrid (Parish). The form Macilbride was much used in olden time in the lordship of Doune: Makilbred, Makgilbred, M'Gilbrid, 1489—90. M'Ilvreid 1612. The archdeacon of the Isles in 1476 was M'Ylwyrd, made clearer in 1480 by Makkilbreid. See also Macbridan and Macilvhide. Mc ilbryd 1685. — The Surnames of Scotland (1946) by George Fraser Black (1866-1948) Mac Giolla Brighde Belongs mainly to Co. Donegal. In east Ulster it is sometimes of Scottish origin.

Origin. According to tradition the ancestors of the Highlanders originated in central Asia and slowly migrated through Asia Minor, Egypt, Southern Europe, and into Ireland, originally called Scotia.+ About 503 A.D. a general migration began from Ireland into western Scotland. The first wave settled in Airer Gaelhel, land of the Gaels, later called Argyll. Migrations from Ireland continued but by 795 the development of Gaelic clans was independent of Ireland. 2. Development of the Clans. The Scottish highlands were inhabited by Picts when the Gaels arrived from Ireland. The latter people were Christians and the Picts were pagan. The great missionary, Columba, came over from Ireland as early as 563 and through his efforts, many of the Picts were converted. Conversion led to some intermarriage between the Picts and Gaels, but there were still reasons for conflict between the two peoples. Gradually, for security and other reasons, the Gaels, or Highlanders, began to band together into clans. The chief of the strongest branch or family in a clan became chief of the clan. Thereafter the title was usually hereditary.” ===MacBride, MacBryde are Septs of Clan Donald=== Clan Donald is one of the largest Scottish clans. The MacDonald clan has many separate branches: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Donald#cite_note-highcouncilofclandonald.org-Macdonald-47 These are the Clan Donald branches with extant chiefs, including the main Clan Donald followed by their Gaelic patronymics: Lord Macdonald who is the High Chief of Clan Donald whose ancestor was the Lord of the Isles. The MacDhomnhaill. MacDonald of Sleat MacUisdean. MacDonald of Clanranald. Mac Mhic Ailean. MacDonnell of Glengarry. Mac Mhic Alasdair. MacDonald of Keppoch. Mac Mhic Raghnaill. McDonell of Antrim chiefs hold the title Earl of Antrim. Mac Somhairle Buidhe. Clan MacAlister. MacAlasdair.

Mac Iain Mhoir. ===Kingdom by Celtic Inheritance & Conquest=== Donald of Islay (c. 1185 to 1269) - known as King Somerled ancestor of the MacDonalds. Donald of Islay’s father, Raghnaill, inherited lands, (acquired by force by his father, Somhairlidh) in Kintyre, Islay, and half of Arran.  The other half of Arran and the Isle of Bute went to his younger brother, Angus MacDonald. Donald of Islay (c. 1185 to 1269) - known as King Somerled, then inherited his father’s lands (islands). Donald and his uncle Dougal then sailed together to Norway to affirm their rights to rule their Isles from King Håkon himself.  These Hebridean Kings, including Donald and Dougal were precariously balanced between the larger kingdoms of Norway’s King Håkon, England’s King Henry III, and Scotland’s Alexander. According to historian Hugh Macdonald, Donald of Islay eventually slew his uncle Dougal. Scotland’s King Alexander then sent Sir William Rollock as envoy demanding Donald of Islay submit to the Scottish King’s authority. Donald of Islay responded with the account of his obtaining from King Håkon the right to rule the lands that his grandfather Somhairlidh had acquired by force.  Apparently Donald of Islay lost all confidence that the King’s envoy would faithfully present his case to the King of Scotland so he killed him and sent the body to the king as his reply!  The Chronicles of the Isle of Man tell us that in 1192 Raghnaill mac Somhairlidh and his sons were defeated in battle against his brother Angus. But in 1210 Angus and all 3 of his sons were killed at Morvern in the battle against the Norsemen from the Isle of Skye.   Raghnaill took over Arran and Bute after this brother’s line was extinguished.  Those islands then became part of Donald of Islay‘s domain.  The Annals of Ulster Senait state that in 1210 Raghnall mac Somhairlidh fought a battle with and slaughtered the men of Sciadh (Skye). Donald of Islay would have been 25 at that time.   Donald of Islay‘s life was in constant strife with his MacDougal cousins in Argyll and Lorne and his Olafson cousins who ruled the Isle of Man, Skye, and the Outer Hebrides.   Several Irish legends remain of battles fought when Raghnaill mac Somhairlidh and his sons raided Ireland, Scotland, the Hebrides, and the Isle of Man.    Nyvaigs transported Dougal’s and Raghnaill’s troops to Ireland,  through the Northern Isles and as far as Norway just as Somhairlidh‘s armies travelled Per Mare Per Terras (By Sea and By Land) to establish this sea kingdom from Islay to Skye that became the Triath nan Eilean or Kingdom of the Isles. Donald of Islay Seeks the Pope’s Absolution Donald of Islay went to Rome with his entire entourage, including seven priests, seeking the Pope’s absolution for past transgressions of God’s law.   Donald of Islay presented himself before Pope Innocent IV to submit to the will of God and the Church. When the Pope asked Donald of Islay if he would submit to whatever punishment the Church saw fit, he said he would agree to be burned in a cauldron of molten lead if necessary.    The Pope saw him as truly penitent and may have comforted Donald of Islay by telling him the Legend of St. Julian, another man who had taken many lives, but through penitence had become the patron Saint of warriors & even murderers. Pope Innocent IV sent him back to rule his island kingdom with a full Papal absolution.  For the rest of his life (at least 20 years) Donald demonstrated a resolve to serve his fellow men and the Church (following the example of St. Julian).  He built the monastery of Sadell on Kintyre dedicated to the Virgin Mary and donated large land grants to the monastery as well as an island to the Nuns of Iona.  He also had erected standing crosses on several isles of his kingdom.  The Kildalton cross may predate Donald, but it stood on his home island and prominently displays engraved scenes of Cain slaying Abel, Abraham preparing to slay his son as a sacrifice, and David slaying a lion. The Kildalton cross wasn’t commissioned by Donald, but it certainly was a prominent feature of the island Donald called home.  Living to such an advanced age was not typical of the warrior kings of his day.   Few lived to their 50’s, let alone Donald of Islay‘s 80+ years, and few had an opportunity to “make peace with his Maker”.  The last fourth of his life was in sharp contrast to the reputation he had earned over a half-century.  It is obvious that it was important to Donald that he be remembered as more than a warrior king.  Though absolved by the Pope, he was not as easily forgiven by his enemies. Precariously Balanced Island Kingdom, Triath nan Eilean In 1263 the Norse King Håkon Håkonsson (son of the Norse king who had affirmed Donald of Islay’s right to rule) personally brought a fleet to halt the Scottish encroachment upon his vassal Hebridean Isle Kingdoms.  The resulting horrendous Battle of Largs was devastating to both Norway and Scotland.  The death of Håkon Håkonsson upset the balance of power that had allowed the existence of the Hebridean Isle Kingdoms. They were now left to King Alexander’s unfettered designs on the Isles. In fact, most Scottish histories ignore Somhairlidh’s driving the Norse from Argyll and the Isles and his establishment of the Triath nan Eilean over a century before Largs. They point to Largs as when Scotland’s King Alexander drove the Norse from the Scottish Hebrides. Prior to Largs Scotland faced its own continual skirmishes along the border with England.  With Scotland otherwise occupied the Hebridean Kings were content to be vassal kings to England and/or Norway rather than being absorbed into the Kingdom of Scotland.  The Hebridean Kingdoms remained Celtic style vassal kingdoms while Scotland moved toward a European style feudal system with one monarch served by Lords instead of vassal kings. Rather than committing his sizable forces to either side in the battle of Largs there is a conspicuous absence of the aged Donald of Islay. Some have claimed Donald’s son Angus sided with King Håkon, but immediately changed allegiance after Scotland’s “victory”.  Others question that Largs represented a clear victory for either Scotland’s Alexander III  or Norway’s King Håkon.  If the victor at Largs was not clear, the Hebridean Isle Kingdoms clearly lost the autonomy they had enjoyed under Håkon.  They stubbornly continued to govern themselves as they had for centuries, but other than Robert the Bruce, most of the Scottish kings considered them “rebellious subjects” rather than vassal kings. The Death of Donald of Islay Íle The Sleat historian Hugh Macdonald claimed that Church of Columba at Iona, recorded Donald of Islay died at Shippinage (Skipness, Argyll, Scotland) in 1289.  That would have made him 104!  Most Clan Donald historians agree that 1269 is more likely and supported by the lack of documentation mentioning his activities after 1269.  But his last years were devoid of conflict and in service to man and Church which didn’t “make the news” in the 13th century any more than it does today.  The 1269 date would have made Donald of Islay 84 when he died. With his ancestor Conn cued cathach, Donald of Islay could well claim the title “of a hundred battles”. In classic Celtic manner each of Donald of Islay’s three sons, Angus Mhòir, Alexander, and Somhairlidh inherited portions of the island kingdom now referred to as branches of Clan Donald.  Angus Mhòir was elected the next Triath nan Eilean (King of the Isles) and tried to continue his father’s policy to ally with England (as did the Balliol house of Scotland) in order to maintain the island kingdom’s independence.   The departure from this position only came after Angus Mhòir’s younger son, Angus Og maintained a close, personal friendship with Robert the Bruce.  Under the leadership of Angus Og the Islesmen fought and won Scotland’s independence with The Bruce at Bannockburn.    Angus Og accepted The Bruce’s offer to grant him the lands held by Dougal chiefs under King Balliol.  The Bruce’s condition was that the lands granted would be to the Lord of the Isles (rather than King).   In this manner, Donald of Islay’s Triath nan Eilean (Kingdom of the Isles) voluntarily became the Lordship of the Isles and part of King Robert the Bruce’s feudal Scotland.  Ironically the Lordship continued for  224 years after the death of Donald of Islay before James IV demanded forfeiture after learning that a previous Lord of the Isles had entered into treaties with England.  The Lordship of the Isles was forfeited to the Royal Family where it remains today.  After the forfeiture there arose the Gaelic saying in the Highlands and Islands “Chan eil aoibhneas gun Chlann Donald of Islay” which means “There is no joy without Clan Donald.” Origins of the Clan The Norse-Gaelic Clan Donald traces its descent from Domhnall mac Raghnaill (d. circa 1250), whose father Reginald or Ranald was styled 'King of the Isles' and 'Lord of Argyll and Kintrye'. Ranald's father, Somerled was styled 'King of the Hebrides' and was killed campaigning against Malcolm IV of Scotland at the Battle of Renfrew in 1164. Clan Donald shares a descent from Somerled with Clan MacDougall, who trace their lineage from his elder son, Blake Donald. Gaelic tradition gave Somerled a Celtic descent in the male line, as the medieval Seanachies traced his lineage through a long line of ancestors back to Colla Uais and Conn of the Hundred Battles. Thus, Clan Donald claimed to be both Clann Cholla and Siol Chuinn (Children of Colla and Seed of Conn). Possibly the oldest piece of poetry attributed to the MacDonalds is a brosnachadh (an incitement to battle) which was said to have been written in 1411, on the day of the Battle of Harlaw. The first lines of the poem begin 'A Chlanna Cuinn cuimhnichibh / Cruas an am na h-iorghaile,' (Ye children of Conn remember hardihood in the time of battle). A later poem made to John of Islay (1434 - 1503), last of the MacDonald Lords of the Isles, proclaims 'Cennus Ghaoidheal do Chlainn Cholla, coir a fhogra,' (The Headship of the Gael to the family of Colla, it is right to proclaim it), giving MacDonald's genealogy back to Colla Uais. However, a recent DNA study has shown that Somerled may have been of Norse descent in his male line. By testing the Y-DNA of males bearing the surnames MacDonald, MacDougall, MacAlister, and their variants it was found that a substantial proportion of men tested shared the same Y-DNA and a direct paternal ancestor. This distinct Y-chromosome found in Scotland has been regarded as showing Norse descent in the British Isles. According to the Clan Donald DNA Project about 22% of tested participants have this signature of Somerled. Scottish-Norwegian War The MacDonalds had always supported Norway. However, this alliance broke when the Norwegians were defeated at the Battle of Largs in 1263 by Scottish forces. Norway's King Haakon was defeated and his fleet was wrecked by the skilled manoeuvres of King Alexander III of Scotland and the Clan MacDougall. Three years later, the Norwegians submitted their last islands to the Scottish crown. Aonghas Mór, the son of Domhnall, then made peace with King Alexander III of Scotland. Wars of Scottish Independence MacDonald, Lord of the Isles In the 14th century during the Wars of Scottish Independence, the MacDonalds fought with Robert the Bruce at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. It was Donald's great-grandson, Angus Og of Islay who was the 6th Lord of the Isles who sheltered King Robert the Bruce. Angus led a small band of Islesmen at the Battle of Bannockburn. In recognition of Clan Donalds support King Robert the Bruce proclaimed that Clan Donald would always occupy the honored position on the right-wing of the Scottish army. LORD OF THE ISLES BEGINS The clan takes its name 'Donald' from the name of the 1st Lord of the Isles who was the grandson of King Somerled who lived until 1269. Donald's son was the original 'Mac' which means 'son of'. In 1380 the Clan MacLean, Clan MacLeod and Clan Mackinnon were together all defeated in battle by Donald Macdonald, Lord of the Isles, who vindicated his right as Lord of the Isles. 15th-century Earldom of Ross The title and territory of the Earl of Ross had originally been held by the Chief of Clan Ross. However, Angus Og's grandson, Domhnall of Islay, Lord of the Isles married the first female heiress of the Earl of Ross. He later successfully claimed the position of Earl of Ross through marriage. This was secured by the Battle of Harlaw on 24 July 1411 where most of the highland clans supported Donald in preventing the Duke of Albany and his army of Scottish Lowlanders from claiming the position for himself. However by 1415 the Earldom of Ross was lost as Murdoch Stewart, Duke of Albany had seized Dingwall Castle and Easter Ross. Domhnall prepared for war and proclaimed himself 'Lord of Ross'. Although Albany appointed his own son John Stewart, 2nd Earl of Buchan as the new Earl of Ross. However, later the MacDonald chiefs would again become the Earls of Ross, firstly Alexander of Islay, Earl of Ross and then his son John of Islay, Earl of Ross who surrendered the earldom in 1476 to James Stewart, Duke of Ross.

The Clan Macdonald. The largest and most powerful of the Highland Clans was undoubtedly the Clan Macdonald. The history of the Mcdonalds goes back at least to the 13th century, when the Lord of the Isles, ruler of the western coast and off-shore islands, was also chief of the Clan Macdonald.‘ The great clan broke up in 1494 into a number of Macdonald clans, but the most powerful remained the Clan Macdonald of the Isles. This great clan was divided into "North", adjoining the McLeods of Skye, North Uist and West Uist, and "South", on Isla and Jura Is- lands, and in Argyll (or Argyllshire). 4. Septs of the Clan Macdonald. Many of the Highland families, even large and powerful families never achieved recognition as separate clans. These families instead, became sub-clans, or septs, of larger and more powerful groups, or clans. The Clan Macdonald included far more septs than any of the other clans. In fact, over one hundred Scottish names appear as septs of the Clan Macdonald, including Bethune, Gilbride, MacBride, McEachern, Purcell, and many others. The "South" group of the Clan included the MacBride's, and they lived largely in the Kintyre (Cantire and a variety of spellings) area of Argyllshire. Thus in Scotland, the MacBride's apparently did not have a family crest or coat of arms of their own, but the family crest dates back into Irish history. ===Arran, an island in North Ayrshire - county Bute=== My earliest sourced Ancestor comes from Arran in county Bute, Peter Kerr MacBryde (other possible spellings are MacBride or McBride) born 6 Sep 1801, died 10 Jul 1875. Peter was born as MacBride most likely in Shannochie/Shennachie on the south end of Arran. Death notice has him as Peter Kerr Macbryde. Portsmouth, Kingston Cemetery records: Peter Kerr MacBryde 1800-1875. Peter's father was most likely Thomas McBride, mother Margaret MacDouglad. However, MyHeritage Family Trees, has this record: "Mary MacBryde (born Adams) married John MacBryde.They had one son: Peter Kerr MacBryde". Arran is an island in North Ayrshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Inbhir Àir), formerly a county in the southwestern Strathclyde region of Scotland, that today makes up the Council Areas of South, East, and North Ayrshire, in the Firth of Clyde, where the name has long existed. Kildonan Castle is a ruined MacDonald castle located on the Isle of Arran. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kildonan_Castle Arran or the Isle of Arran (/ˈærən/; Scottish Gaelic: Eilean Arainnpronounced [elan ˈarɪɲ]), at 432 square kilometres (167 sq mi), is the largest island in the Firth of Clyde and the seventh-largest Scottish island. Historically part of Buteshire, it is in the unitary council area of North Ayrshire. In the 2011 census, it had a resident population of 4,629. Though culturally and physically similar to the Hebrides, it is separated from them by the Kintyre peninsula. It is divided into highland and lowland areas by the Highland Boundary Fault and has been described as a "geologist's paradise". Arran has been continuously inhabited since the early Neolithic period. Numerous prehistoric remains have been found. From the 6th century onwards, Goidelic-speaking peoples from Ireland colonised it and it became a centre of religious activity. In the troubled Viking Age, Arran became the property of the Norwegian crown, until formally absorbed by the kingdom of Scotland in the 13th century. The 19th-century "clearances" led to significant depopulation and the end of the Gaelic language and way of life. The economy and population have recovered in recent years, the main industry being tourism. There is a diversity of wildlife, including three species of tree endemic to the area. The island includes miles of coastal pathways, numerous hills and mountains, forested areas, rivers, small lochs and beaches. Its main beaches are at Brodick, Whiting Bay, Kildonan, Sannox and Blackwaterfoot. ===Etymology=== Most of the islands of Scotland have been occupied consecutively by speakers of at least four languages since the Iron Age. Many of the names of these islands have more than one possible meaning as a result. Arran is therefore not unusual in that the derivation of the name is far from clear. Mac an Tàilleir (2003) states that "it is said to be unrelated to the name Aran in Ireland" (which means "kidney-shaped", cf Irish ára "kidney"). Unusually for a Scottish island, Haswell-Smith (2004) offers a Brythonic derivation and a meaning of "high place" which at least corresponds with the geography — Arran is significantly loftier than all the land that immediately surrounds it along the shores of the Firth of Clyde. Any other Brythonic place names that may have existed were later replaced on Arran as the Goidelic-speaking Gaels spread from Ireland, via their adjacent kingdom of Dál Riata. During the Viking Age it became, along with most Scottish islands, the property of the Norwegian crown, at which time it may have been known as "Herrey" or "Hersey". As a result of this Norse influence, many current place names on Arran are of Viking origin. ===Geography and geology=== The island lies in the Firth of Clyde between Ayr and Ardrossan, and Kintyre. The profile of the north Arran hills as seen from the Ayrshire coast is referred to as the "Sleeping Warrior", due to its resemblance to a resting human figure. The highest of these hills is Goat Fell at 873.5 metres (2,866 ft).There are three other Corbetts, all in the north east: Caisteal Abhail, Cìr Mhòr and Beinn Tarsuinn. Beinn Bharrain is the highest peak in the north west at 721 metres (2,365 ft). The largest valley on the island is Glen Iorsa to the west, whilst narrow Glen Sannox (Gaelic: Gleann Shannaig) and Glen Rosa (Gaelic: Gleann Ròsa) to the east surround Goat Fell. The terrain to the south is less mountainous, although a considerable portion of the interior lies above 350 metres (1,150 ft), and A' Chruach reaches 512 metres (1,680 ft) at its summit.[14][15] There are two other Marilyns in the south, Tighvein and Beinn Bhreac. Arran is sometimes referred to as "Scotland in miniature", as it is divided into "Highland" and "Lowland" areas by the Highland Boundary Fault which runs north east to south west across Scotland.[16] Arran is a popular destination for geologists, who come to see intrusive igneous landforms such as sills and dykes, and sedimentary and meta-sedimentary rocks ranging in age from Precambrian to Mesozoic. Most of the interior of the northern half of the island is taken up by a large granite batholith that was created by substantial magmatic activity around 58 million years ago in the Paleogene period. This comprises an outer ring of coarse granite and an inner core of finer grained granite, which was intruded later. This granite was intruded into the Late Proterozoic to Cambrian metasediments of the Dalradian Supergroup. Other Paleogene igneous rocks on Arran include extensive felsic and composite sills in the south of the island, and the central ring complex, an eroded caldera system surrounded by a near-continuous ring of granitic rocks. Sedimentary rocks dominate the southern half of the island, especially Old and New Red Sandstone. Some of these sandstones contain fulgurites – pitted marks that may have been created by Permian lightning strikes. Large aeolian sand dunes are preserved in Permian sandstones near Brodick, showing the presence of an ancient desert. Within the central complex are subsided blocks of Triassic sandstone and marl, Jurassic shale, and even a rare example of Cretaceous chalk.[19][20] During the 19th century barytes was mined near Sannox. First discovered in 1840, nearly 5,000 tons were produced between 1853 and 1862. The mine was closed by the 11th Duke of Hamilton on the grounds that it "spoiled the solemn grandeur of the scene" but was reopened after the First World War and operated until 1938 when the vein ran out. Visiting in 1787, the geologist James Hutton found his first example of an unconformity to the north of Newton Point near Lochranza, which provided evidence for his Plutonist theories of uniformitarianism and about the age of the Earth. This spot is one of the most famous places in the study of geology. The Pleistocene glaciations almost entirely covered Scotland in ice, and Arran's highest peaks may have been nunataks at this time. After the last retreat of the ice at the close of the Pleistocene epoch sea levels were up to 70 metres (230 ft) lower than at present and it is likely that circa 14,000 BP the island was connected to mainland Scotland.[24] Sea level changes and the isostatic rise of land makes charting post-glacial coastlines a complex task, but it is evident that the island is ringed by post glacial raised beaches.] King's Cave on the south west coast is an example of an emergent landform on such a raised beach. This cave, which is over 30.5 metres (100 ft) long and up to 15.3 metres (50 ft) high, lies well above the present day sea level. There are tall sea cliffs to the north east including large rock slides under the heights of Torr Reamhar, Torr Meadhonach and at Scriden (An Scriodan) at the far north end of the island. ===MacBryde Notables=== ====The Two Roberts==== In 1933, two new students met on their first day at Glasgow School of Art. From then on they were inseparable. They lived and worked together. They became lovers. They stayed together throughout their lives. They shone at art school, then came to London, where their robust paintings soon became very fashionable. Yet a few years later, just as quickly, their work fell out of favour. They became increasingly impoverished, dependent on friends for bed and board, but they never stopped painting — or loving one another. They were both prolific drinkers. By 1966, they were both dead. The biography of Robert Colquhoun and Robert MacBryde ([[MacBryde-206|MacBryde-206]]) is so compelling that, even if their work had only been so-so, it’d still be a tale worth telling, a story of fickle fashion and the enduring power of true love. However, as this gripping retrospective proves, their paintings were remarkable — muscular, unsentimental and utterly unique. They came of age alongside Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud, whom they knew and in some respects resembled. Yet as you wander round this exhibition, their first ever two-man show, you realise the only artists they truly resembled were each other. Ostensibly, the Two Roberts (as their friends all called them) had quite a lot in common. Working-class lads from Ayrshire, they both left school at 15. They were both brilliant draughtsmen, from their earliest days at GSA. They both worked hard, despite the booze. All they ever wanted to do was paint. Their relationship was unpretentious. They never hid their homosexuality, even though it was illegal, yet many of their friends had no idea they were an item. They had a good time, most of the time, but their domestic tastes were simple. The work was what really mattered, and their abiding love for one another. They rarely collaborated, but their early paintings are very similar. Indeed, at first glance it’s often difficult to tell them apart. Yet, like a married couple in matching clothes, their underlying differences are far more interesting. MacBryde was more practical and sociable. Colquhoun was more prickly and taciturn. Their contrasting personalities are reflected in their art. In the first few rooms of this display, I had trouble working out who did what. Yet gradually, as your eye adjusts, it becomes clear that these stylistic similarities are superficial. Underneath, they’re very different, as distinct as Rubens and Van Dyck. MacBryde favoured still lives, Colquhoun preferred the human form. MacBryde’s paintings are calmer and more colourful. Colquhoun’s are more energetic and intense. Sign up to the Weekly Highlights email The best of the current issue – delivered straight to your inbox, every Thursday Colquhoun’s star always shone a bit more brightly than MacBryde’s. In their student days he came top, with MacBryde a close second. This pattern was repeated when they moved to London. MacBryde was admired, Colquhoun was fêted. In any other duo, MacBryde would have been the star turn, but as the less acclaimed and more efficient partner, he assumed responsibility for the daily drudgery, a fate that’s befallen a lot of talented wives. In this show Colquhoun’s paintings outnumber MacBryde’s by about two to one. MacBryde was the steady wife, Colquhoun the erratic husband. Colquhoun got more glory, but MacBryde held the fort. His pictures don’t shout so loud, but they’re more measured and sustained. In most artistic partnerships, this arrangement would be a recipe for fierce resentment. However, to his credit, MacBryde didn’t seem to mind at all. His letters, some included here, were resolutely breezy. Even when their careers collapsed, his correspondence remained upbeat. Since Colquhoun had been more prolific, rejection hit him harder. Because he was more introspective, the pain was more acute. Both men liked a drink, and as their drinking increased (as drinking tends to do) Colquhoun became more withdrawn. MacBryde drank and made merry. Colquhoun drank and drank. In 1962, after working through the night on what should have been his big comeback show, he collapsed and died in MacBryde’s arms. He was 47. MacBryde moved to Ireland and virtually abandoned painting. In 1966, aged 53, he was dancing in the street outside a pub when he was knocked down and killed by a passing car. His last artwork was an illustration for a minor literary magazine. What makes this story such a tragedy is that, beset by alcohol and penury, the pair’s art didn’t deteriorate in the slightest. Their later paintings, painted in poverty and obscurity, are just as powerful and original as their earlier work, sold by trendy galleries to major museums. If they’d lived and prospered, they could have continued for another 30 years. So why did they fall from grace so suddenly? The usual combination — bad luck and changing taste. Collectors and curators abandoned figuration for abstraction. They were evicted from their studio. One of their most important patrons inconveniently dropped dead. Yet the Two Roberts kept going, treating Kipling’s two imposters, triumph and disaster, just the same. Their greatest achievement, and the great achievement of this super show, is that the pictures they made when they were broke and forgotten in the 1950s are even more arresting than the ones they made in the 1940s, when they were championed by Kenneth Clark, bought by the Tate and MoMA and photographed by Vogue. Robert MacBryde ( [[MacBryde-206)|MacBryde-206)]] (1913–1966) was a Scottish still-life and figure painter and a theatre set designer. MacBryde was born in Maybole and worked in a factory for 5 years after leaving school. He studied art at Glasgow School of Art from 1932 to 1937. There, he met Robert Colquhoun with whom he established a lifelong gay relationship and professional collaboration, the pair becoming known as "the two Roberts". MacBryde studied and travelled in France and Italy, assisted by scholarships, returning to London in 1939. He shared studio space with Colquhoun, and the pair shared a house with John Minton and, from 1943, Jankel Adler. MacBryde held his first one-person exhibition at the Lefevre Gallery in 1943. At the height of their acclaim they courted a large circle of friends - including Michael Ayrton, Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud and John Minton as well as the writers Fred Urquhart, George Barker, Elizabeth Smart, and Dylan Thomas - and were renowned for their parties at their studio (77 Bedford Gardens). Influenced by Graham Sutherland and John Piper, MacBryde became a well-known painter of the Modernist school of art, known for his brightly coloured Cubist studies. His later work evolved into a darker, Expressionist range of still lifes and landscapes. In collaboration with Colquhoun, he created several set designs during and after the Second World War. These included sets for Gielgud's Macbeth, King Lear at Stratford and Massine's Scottish ballet Donald of the Burthens, produced by the Sadler's Wells Ballet at Covent Garden in 1951. During the 1950s, both MacBryde and Colquhoun lost the attention of the art scene, and as both had become heavy drinkers, serious work became almost impossible. Since neither had any private means, they were reduced at times to near destitution. Colquhoun died suddenly in 1962. Soon after MacBryde moved to Ireland, and for a time shared a house with Patrick Kavanagh, with whom he had become friendly in London. However he was still drinking heavily and seems to have made no serious effort to paint again. Robert MacBryde died in 1966 in Dublin as a result of a street accident. Anthony Cronin, a friend of MacBryde and Colquhoun, describes them both with affection and respect in his memoir Dead as Doornails, as does the English painter, playwright and poet Arthur Berry in his autobiography A Three And Sevenpence Half Penny Man. ====McBryde Gardens in Hawaii==== McBryde Garden History purchased from Hawaii’s Queen Emma. The land now occupied by the McBryde Garden lies in the southern part of what was once the Hawaiian ahupua'a (land division) of Lawa'i, originally extending along the Lawa'i Stream from the Kapalaoa Range to Lawa'i Bay. Along the lower course of the stream, which opens into the Pacific Ocean, the valley is deep and wide, with imposing cliffs framing it along both sides. Lawa'i was one of six ahupua'a that roughly form what is now the district of Kōloa. Throughout the valley there are indications of traditional Hawaiian archaeological sites that suggest that this land was once an important settlement of the early Polynesians voyagers who settled the islands of Hawai'i. These sites consist of remnants of habitation deposits, agricultural terraces, stone walls, a fishpond, and trails. Historic legends mention Lawa'i as the place where the great warrior Kemamo lived. Although little is written about the early history of the Lawa'i Valley, the picture becomes clearer after the arrival of Westerners in the 1700s and particularly after Hawaii’s “Great Mahele” (land redistribution) in the mid-nineteenth century, when traditional Hawaiian agricultural practices were replaced by private land ownership with both plantation and small-scale farming. Lawa'i appears on maps as early as the 1820s. Land records show that the majority of the land in the Lawa'i ahupua'a was granted to James Young Kanehoa. Three other individuals were also awarded land parcels. Kanehoa’s land was later passed to Hawaii’s Queen Emma. In 1876 Duncan McBryde ([[McBryde-106|McBryde-106]]) leased Queen Emma’s land and his family purchased the property in 1886. By the early 1900s the upper valley was being used for large-scale sugar plantation cultivation and the lower valley had been leased to small taro and rice growers. By 1911, tenant farmers had replaced the taro and rice growers in the lower Lawa'i Valley. In the early 1900s the McBryde Sugar Company constructed Pump Six, near the juncture of the upper and lower valley, to irrigate the newly established sugar cane plantation fields. The pumping station included a deep reservoir and a series of pipelines to deliver water up the valley and onto the fields above. A railroad system was also established at that time. The tracks circled the valley on its rim, passing through two tunnels on the western side of the valley and over three trestles crossing the upper valley and intersecting valleys on the eastern and western rims. Survey maps indicate that there were two camps in the valley, probably housing plantation workers. After the Congressional Charter established the Pacific Tropical Botanical Garden in 1964, the founding trustees began their search for a location for the new botanical garden. In 1970 the trustees purchased the original 171 acres in the upper Lawa'i Valley, forming the institution's first garden. The challenge began to transform the valley floor, planted in sugar cane and surrounded by steep volcanic cliffs. Plants were donated by researchers, plant collectors, botanical gardens, and others from throughout the tropical world. In the years since, the plant collections at McBryde Garden were expanded by targeting collection efforts within specific regions (provenance), families, species, cultivars (taxonomic), criticality (level of threat to its existence in the wild), cultural and other values. This first garden became known as the Lawa'i Garden. In addition to programs in research and conservation, educational activities began early through visitors and internship programs. Initial repair work on Pump Six was conducted so that it could be used to house gardening equipment. This was followed many years later by extensive renovation of the adjacent Pump Manager's House, which provides some office space. A wood-and-shade cloth structure was built to serve as the Garden's first nursery. The institution's headquarters were constructed on a parcel overlooking the garden. McBryde Garden sustained extensive damage in the fall of 1992 when the island of Kaua'i was struck by a Category 4 hurricane. Through the swift and herculean efforts of its staff and volunteers, hundreds of plants that would have died were saved. Subsequent activities included expeditions throughout Hawai'i and other Pacific Islands to re-collect as many lost species as possible. Damage to the Garden and destruction of the nearby visitors center interrupted the regular public tour program until 1995. In 1997 a new visitors center was opened to service both the McBryde Garden and the Allerton Garden, situated on a 10-acre parcel outside the east end of the Valley. As the result of an endowment gifted by the descendants of the family who had once owned the valley, in 2000 Lawa'i Garden was officially renamed the McBryde Garden. Facilities were significantly improved in 2005 with the construction of a state-of-the-art Conservation and Horticulture Center. NTBG’s master plan for the Garden includes an improved network of trails and roads, and eventually the adaptive reuse of Pump Six as an interpretive hub for educational activities. ===Contemporary Notables of the name McBryde=== Michael McBryde (b. 1981), Australian silver and bronze medalist rower Ian McBryde (b. 1953), Canadian-born, Australian poet John McBryde (b. 1939), Australian bronze medalist field hockey player at the 1964 Summer Olympics John H.

MacBride entered the navy after serving on merchant vessels and distinguished himself in a number of actions during the Seven Years' War, including cutting out a privateer, which secured him the rank of post-captain by the end of the conflict. He was instrumental in establishing and securing a British settlement on the Falkland Islands in the years of peace which followed, and also performed service to the Royal Family by transporting the King's sister, Caroline Matilda. Still in active service by the outbreak of war with the American colonies, MacBride took command of a ship of the line and saw action in engagements under Keppel and Rodney. He was also active against privateers, capturing the Comte d'Artois in a heated battle off the Irish coast. Further service followed with Parker's fleet against the Dutch and with Barrington in the Channel. MacBride ended the war serving ashore in Ireland, and in 1784 embarked on a political career, becoming MP for Plymouth. Promoted to flag rank with the outbreak of war with Revolutionary France, he commanded squadrons off the enemy coasts, and transported troops to support land operations on the continent. His last active service was in 1795, though he was promoted to Admiral of the Blue shortly before his death in 1800. Contents 1 Family and early life 2 Falkland Islands 3 Interwar years 4 American War of Independence 4.1 MacBride and the Artois connection 5 Years of peace 6 French Revolutionary Wars 7 Family and issue 8 Notes 9 References Family and early life John MacBride was born in Scotland around 1735, the second son of the Presbyterian minister Robert MacBride. The MacBrides moved to Ireland shortly after John's birth, when Robert became minister of Ballymoney, in County Antrim. John's brother, David MacBride, became a noted medical writer. John MacBride initially went to sea with the merchant service in 1751, and joined the navy as an able seaman three years later, in 1754. He served first aboard the 24-gun HMS Garland in the West Indies for a number of years, before returning to British wars and serving aboard HMS Norfolk, the flagship in the Downs for a few months MacBride passed his lieutenant's examination on 6 October 1758, and received his commission on 27 October. He was moved into the hired cutter Grace, and in August 1761 came across a French privateer anchored in the Dunkirk roadstead. MacBride made contact with the frigate HMS Maidstone and asked her captain for four armed and manned boats.[4] Maidstone's captain readily agreed, and at 10 o'clock that night the boats left the British ships and approached the privateer with muffled oars. They came within pistol shot and hailed the French vessel, and on receiving no reply, boarded her.[4] The British boarded on both sides of the vessel, and carried the ship with two men wounded. MacBride himself shot and killed the French lieutenant as he aimed a gun at the British boat.The total French losses were two dead and five wounded. Having secured the vessel, the British took her out to sea under the guns of a French battery. MacBride's good service brought him a promotion to master and commander on 7 April 1762, and an appointment to command the fireship HMS Grampus.[5] From there he moved to command the sloop HMS Cruizer on 27 May 1763, still at the rank of commander.[2][6] After some time spent on the Home station, MacBride received a promotion to post-captain on 20 June 1765, and took command of the 30-gun HMS Renown.[4][7] This was followed in August 1765 with command of the 32-gun HMS Jason, and a mission to establish a colony on the Falkland Islands. MacBride arrived with Jason, HMS Carcass and the storeship HMS Experiment, in January 1766, with orders to secure a settlement and to inform any existing inhabitants that the islands were a British possession. The British consolidated Port Egmont, made several cruises in the surrounding waters, and in December came across the French settlement. In a cordial meeting MacBride informed the French governor M. de Neville of the British claim, which the French politely rejected. Unbeknown to both de Neville and MacBride, Louis Antoine de Bougainville, who had established the French settlement, had agreed to sell the colony to Spain.The resulting tensions between the Spanish and British claims would nearly lead to war in 1770, but in the meantime MacBride returned home, reporting the situation to the government. He later published a 13-page monograph, probably in 1770, entitled'' A Journal of the Winds and Weather...at Falkland Islands from 1 February 1766 to 19 January 1767''. After his return to Britain MacBride was given command of the 22-gun HMS Seaford in August 1767 and employed to cruise in the English Channel. He spent several years aboard Seaford, before transferring to take command of the 32-gun HMS Arethusa in March 1771, followed by the 32-gun HMS Southampton in August that year. He was in command of Southampton in May 1772 when he received orders to command a small squadron tasked with transporting Caroline Matilda, former Queen of Denmark and Norway and sister of King George III, from Elsinore to Stadt. The squadron consisted of Southampton, and two of MacBride's former commands, Seaford, and Cruizer.[13] In April 1773 he took command of HMS Orpheus. American War of Independence The Battle of Ushant. MacBride saw little actual fighting in the confused engagement. With the outbreak of war with the American colonies, MacBride was appointed to take command of the 64-gun HMS Bienfaisant on 6 November 1776. He was present at the Battle of Ushant on 28 July 1778, but did not become heavily engaged in the confused action. In the ensuing argument over the outcome of the battle, MacBride gave evidence in favour of Admiral Keppel that was an important factor in Keppel's acquittal at his court-martial.[3] MacBride was less supportive of Sir Hugh Palliser.[3] He remained in command of Bienfaisant, and in December joined Sir George Rodney's fleet to relieve Gibraltar.[14] During the voyage the British fleet came across a Spanish convoy transporting naval stores from San Sebastián to Cádiz, and engaged it. The British succeeded in capturing the convoy, while MacBride distinguished himself in engaging the Spanish flagship Guipuscoana, which surrendered to him. The moonlight Battle off Cape St Vincent, 16 January 1780 by Francis Holman, painted 1780 shows the Santo Domingo exploding. MacBride had been heavily engaged with her just prior to her destruction. On 16 January the fleet again encountered Spanish ships, this time off Cape St. Vincent. The Spanish fleet, under Admiral Juan de Lángara, were engaged in the Battle of Cape St. Vincent, and again MacBride was in the thick of the action. He took his ship in to engage the San Domingo, with the Bienfaisant narrowly escaping significant damage after her opponent blew up. He then went on to chase down and capture Lángara's flagship, the 80-gun Fenix. MacBride sent Lieutenant Thomas Louis aboard to take possession, but as a smallpox outbreak was raging on the Bienfaisant, MacBride did not take the usual step of transferring some of the captured officers and men aboard his own ship Instead he reached an agreement with de Lángara, that should the ships encounter a French or Spanish force, he would allow the Fenix to be defended against them. If the Bienfaisant escaped but the Fenix was retaken, de Lángara and his men would consider themselves to still be prisoners of war, but if Fenix escaped and Bienfaisant was taken, then de Lángara and his men would be freed. In any event both ships made it to Gibraltar without incident, after which MacBride was given the honour of taking Rodney's despatches back to Britain. MacBride set off at once, but was delayed by adverse winds. Consequently, his despatches arrived several days after an identical set had reached London, delivered by Captain Edward Thomson, who had left Rodney later than MacBride, but who had had a faster voyage. MacBride and the Artois connection Main article: Action of 13 August 1780 Rodney's fleet returned to Britain in March, and MacBride rejoined the Bienfaisant. In early August a large French privateer, the 64-gun Comte d'Artois, was reported to have sailed from Brest to cruise off the Irish south coast. MacBride was ordered to sail in company with the 44-gun HMS Charon and to capture the dangerous vessel. After several days in search of the vessel, a mysterious sail was finally sighted early on 13 August, chasing after some of the ships of a convoy departing from Cork. MacBride ranged up and fell in with the unidentified ship, which hoisted English colours. Both ships came within pistol shot, and it was not until there was some communication between the two ships, that MacBride could be satisfied of her identity. By now the two ships were so close, with Bienfaisant off the Comte de'Artois's bow, that neither ship could bring their main guns to bear. Instead both ships opened fire with muskets until MacBride could manoeuvre away and a general action ensued. After an hour and ten minutes the French vessel surrendered, having had 21 killed and 35 wounded, while Bienfaisant had three killed and 20 wounded. The Charon had only joined the action towards the end of the engagement and had a single man wounded. The capture had an unusual sequel, for just over a year later, and under a different captain, Bienfaisant captured another privateer, this time named Comtesse d'Artois. The Battle of Dogger Bank, 5 August 1781 In a further coincidence MacBride was appointed in January 1781 to command the 40-gun HMS Artois, a former French ship captured in 1780 by HMS Romney. MacBride served in the North Sea with Sir Hyde Parker's fleet, and fought against the Dutch at the Battle of Dogger Bank on 5 August 1781. After the battle Parker temporarily moved MacBride into the 80-gun HMS Princess Amelia, whose captain, John MacCartney, had been killed during the battle. MacBride resumed command of Artois after the fleet's return to port, and continued to cruise in the North Sea. On 3 December he engaged and captured two large 24-gun Dutch privateers, the Hercules and Mars. Nine men were killed and fifteen wounded on Mars, while 13 were killed and 20 wounded on Hercules. Artois had one man killed and six wounded. By 1782 MacBride was operating in the Channel, and in April was sent out as a scout ahead of the main force under Admiral Samuel Barrington, which aimed to intercept a French squadron that had left Brest bound for the East Indies. He sighted the force on 20 April and alerted Barrington. The British moved in and that day and the following captured over half of the French force.After this success MacBride was appointed to the Irish station in June, where he worked in the impress service while Artois cruised under her first lieutenant. At the end of the war with America, MacBride left the Artois, but in June was able to obtain command of the 32-gun HMS Druid. He commanded her until the end of the year, after which he was temporarily unemployed at sea. MacBride took this opportunity to enter politics, and in 1784 he was elected as MP for Plymouth, holding the seat until 1790. He gave several speeches on naval matters, and sat on the Duke of Richmond's commission into the defences of Portsmouth and Plymouth between 1785 and 1786. He opposed a plan for fortifying the naval dockyards, both on the commission and in parliament. In 1788 he returned to an active, though not a seagoing command, when he took over the Plymouth guardship, the 74-gun HMS Cumberland. By 1790, with the threat of the Spanish Armament looming, MacBride took Cumberland to Torbay to join the fleet assembling there under Lord Howe. MacBride was promoted to rear-admiral on 1 February 1793, as part of the general promotion following the outbreak of war. He became commander-in-chief on the Downs Station, commanding a frigate squadron with his flag in Cumberland, later transferring his flag to the 32-gun HMS Quebec. He took possession of Ostend after the French retreat in early 1793, and in October transported reinforcements under General Sir Charles Grey to assist in the defence of Dunkirk. He took command of the 36-gun HMS Flora at the end of the year and sailed from Portsmouth on 1 December carrying an army under the Earl of Moira to support French royalists in Brittany and Normandy. Following this service he took command of a small squadron in the Western Approaches, flying his flag in a number of different vessels, including the sloop HMS Echo, the 74-gun HMS Minotaur and the 64-gun HMS Sceptre. The squadron did not achieve any significant successes, and MacBride had the misfortune to break his leg while mounting his horse, forcing him to temporarily relinquish his duties. He was promoted to rear-admiral of the red on 11 April, and on 4 July to vice-admiral of the blue.[25][27] Promoted to vice-admiral of the white on 1 June 1795, MacBride became commander of the squadron in the North Sea assigned to watch the Dutch fleet in the Texel, flying his flag in the 74-gun HMS Russell.[26] He stepped down from the post in late 1795, and was not actively employed at sea again. He was promoted to admiral of the blue on 14 February 1799.[25] Admiral John MacBride died of a paralytic seizure at the Spring Garden Coffee House, London on 17 February 1800. Family and issue MacBride married early in his career, but no details are known, other than that his wife was the daughter of a naval officer. She is presumed to have died, for MacBride married Ursula Folkes, eldest daughter of William Folkes of Hillington Hall, Norfolk on 14 July 1774. Their son, John David MacBride, became principal of Magdalen Hall, Oxford. MacBride's daughter, Charlotte, married Admiral Willoughby Lake in 1795. He was with the Merchant Navy between 1751 and 1754. He gained the rank of Able Seamn in 1754 in the Royal Navy. He fought in the Seven Years' War. He fought in the American War of Independence. He gained the rank of Admiral of the Blue. He fought in the Napoleonic Wars. https://morethannelson.com/officer/john-macbride/ John MacBride c1735-1800. He was Scottish born, the son of Robert MacBride, a Presbyterian minister who moved shortly afterwards to Ballymoney, Country Antrim, and of his wife, a Miss Boyd. His uncle, David MacBride, was an esteemed author on medical matters. After joining the merchant service in 1751 MacBride entered the navy as an able seaman aboard the Garland 24 in the West Indies during 1754. On 27 October 1758 he was promoted lieutenant, and three years later he was appointed to the command of the cutter Grace. In August 1761 he cut a privateer out of Dunkirk without the loss of a single man, personally shooting the French captain through the head with a musket. He was promoted commander on 7 April 1762 and appointed to the fireship Grampus 10 before removing to the Vulture 14 on 14 October. He next recommissioned the sloop Cruizer 8 for service on 27 May 1763. 403px- Captain_John_MacBride,_by_Gilbert_Stuart_(1755-1828) Admiral John MacBride On 20 June 1765 MacBride was posted captain of the frigate Renown 30, and during August he commissioned the new Jason 32 in which he went out to Jamaica in October. During the following January he arrived in the Falkland Islands in company with the bomb Carcass, Commander Thomas Jordon, and the storeship Experiment to claim possession of the territory. After developing Port Egmont and undertaking a number of cruises around the islands a respectful meeting with the governor of the French settlers followed towards the end of the year, but without the latter accepting the British claim. After returning home at the beginning of 1767 he recommissioned the Seaford 20, serving on the home station from August 1767 for three years and then commanding the Southampton 32 from August 1771. He was later despatched with a diplomatic mission to secure King George’s sister, Caroline Matilda, the Queen of Denmark, who had separated from the King of Denmark and been imprisoned following an affair that had seen her lover executed, and he escorted her to Zell in the Electorate of Hanover. In April 1773 he commissioned the new Orpheus 32, being present at the fleet review at Spithead in June, and paying her off in August 1774 after serving in home waters. On 6 November 1776 MacBride was appointed to the Bienfaisant 64 which was initially fitted as a guardship in the spring of 1777 before being despatched with a convoy to Madeira in June. On 28 August he captured the Boston privateer Tartar 24 in mid-Atlantic, and although she was not greatly engaged he commanded the Bienfaisant at the Battle of Ushant on 27 July 1778, vehemently supporting Admiral Hon. Augustus Keppel at his subsequent court martial. He continued with the Bienfaisant in the Channel under the orders of Admiral Sir Charles Hardy, serving in the strategic retreat during August 1779. With the allied fleet returning to Spain and France he then sailed under the orders of Rear-Admiral Sir John Lockhart-Ross in September to investigate a rumoured a French invasion force in Cancale Bay, only to find that it did not exist. In December the Bienfaisant joined Admiral Sir George Rodney’s fleet which sailed for the relief Gibraltar, and he received the surrender of the Guipuscoana 64 during the capture of a Spanish convoy on 8 January 1780. At the Moonlight battle off Cape St. Vincent on 16 January he engaged the San Domingo 70, which promptly blew up, and in the same action received the surrender of Admiral Langara’s flagship, the Fénix 80. This vessel was sent into Gibraltar under his first lieutenant, Thomas Louis, although MacBride allowed all the Spanish to remain on board at great risk to the loss of his prize because of a smallpox epidemic aboard the Bienfaisant. In turn the Spanish admiral vowed not to attempt the recapture of his ship unless the Bienfaisant herself was captured, and the honourable conduct of both MacBride and Langara under such circumstances was a sign of the times. He was deservedly sent home with Rodney’s despatches, although the duplicates carried by Captain Edward Thompson arrived before him. After rejoining the Bienfaisant, MacBride cruised in command of a small squadron off Ireland in the summer of 1780, and having been ordered to seek out the French privateer Comte d’Artois 64, which had been causing a great deal of trouble to the local trade, he met her on 13 August. In an action lasting over an hour the far superior French crew of six hundred men attempting to board but the Bienfaisant’s crew held them off before bombarding their enemy into submission, her colours coming down shortly after the arrival on the scene of the Charon 44, Captain Thomas Symonds. The French suffered fifty-six casualties in this action in return for three British killed and twenty-two wounded. Curiously, in September MacBride captured a smaller privateer by the name of the Comtesse d’Artois . 640px-The_Battle_of_the_Dogger_Bank_5_August_1781 Captain MacBride was in the action at the Battle of the Doggersbank in 1781 In January 1781 he was appointed to recommission the recently captured French frigate Artois 40, which at the time was was considered to be an outstanding vessel, and he fought her at the Battle of the Doggersbank on 5 August. Following the action he temporarily assumed the command of the Princess Amelia 80 in place of the fallen Captain Macartney, this measure being considered necessary in case the Dutch attempted to recommence the action, but after reaching port he returned to the Artois. On 3 December he took two beautiful Dutch 24-gun privateers, the Hercules and Mars, losing one man killed and six wounded whilst inflicting casualties of twenty-two killed and thirty-five wounded. In the next year he was present in Vice-Admiral Hon. Samuel Barrington’s fleet in the Channel at the capture of two sail of the line, the more famous of which was the Foudroyant’s making a prize of the Pégase 74 on 20 April. He ended the war by undertaking the role of captain of the impress service in Ireland whilst the Artois paraded off the coast under the command of her first lieutenant, or her acting-captain, Edward Pellew. Following the peace MacBride commissioned the new Druid 32 in June 1783, in which he cruised in the Irish Channel. After being elected M.P. for Plymouth in 1784 he sat for the next two years on a commission with Vice-Admiral Hon. Samuel Barrington and Captain Sir John Jervis which investigated the capability of the Plymouth and Portsmouth fortifications, and he shared their low opinion of the results. During the Dutch Armament in 1787 he commissioned the Cumberland 74 at Plymouth, and in 1788 he spoke in parliament against Admiral Lord Howe during the dispute over the yellowing of admirals, thereby playing some part in this officer’s resignation as first lord of the Admiralty on 16 July 1788. In the same year he rejoined the Plymouth guardship Cumberland 74, and in 1790 formed part of Lord Howe’s fleet during the Nookta Sound dispute before spending some time in the West Indies attached to Rear-Admiral Samuel Cornish’s squadron. This vessel was paid off in 1792. MacBride was promoted to the rank of rear-admiral on 1 February 1793, and nine days later hoisted his flag aboard the frigate Iphigenia 32, Captain Patrick Sinclair, as commander-in-chief in the Downs, later removing it to the Quebec 32, Captain Thomas Louis. He participated in the Channel fleet cruise from 14 July to 10 August 1793 with his flag on the Cumberland 74 with Captain Louis, and after returning to the Quebec, which was now under the command of Captain Josias Rogers, he led a squadron that assisted General Sir Charles Grey in driving the French out of Ostend and Nieuport during October. At various times during this period he also flew his flag aboard the Invincible 74, Captain Hon. Thomas Pakenham and Acting Captain Lawrence Halsted, the Eurydice 24, Captain Francis Cole,the sloop Echo 14, Commander Peter Halkett, and the Sceptre 64, Captain William Essington. On one occasion his squadron was erroneously chased by the British Channel fleet, and during this busy time he also spent a period ashore with a broken leg after falling off his horse. At the end of 1793 he was given command of a frigate squadron off Brest with his flag aboard the Flora 36, Captain Sir John Borlase Warren, and in December his ships supported an expedition led by the Earl of Moira with over six thousand men that was intended to assist an uprising by the French Royalists in Brittany and Normandy. On 4 July 1794 he was promoted vice-admiral and placed in command of a squadron in the North Sea with his flag aboard the Minotaur 74, Captain Thomas Louis, and he continued thereafter with his flag later flying in the Russell 74, Captain Thomas Larcom, before retiring towards the end of 1796. MacBride was promoted admiral on 14 February 1799, and he died of a paralytic seizure on 17 February 1800 at the Spring Garden Coffee House in London. In 1769 at Bishop’s Hull, Taunton, he married Charlotte Anne Harrison, the sixteen year-old daughter of the late Captain Thomas Harrison of Leigham Manor, Eggbuckland, near Plymouth and they soon had a daughter, Charlotte Anne, who would marry the future Admiral Sir Willoughby Thomas Lake*. Macbride’s young wife died in 1771 and he subsequently wedded Ursula Folkes of Hillington Hall, Norfolk, on 14 July 1774. Their son, John David, became a principle of the Magdalene Hall Oxford College. The address in his will was given as Exmouth. He was an M.P from 1784 until he lost his seat in 1790, being held in high esteem by Lord Rockingham whilst regarded as an opponent of William Pitt. Lord Sandwich described him as being an ‘exceedingly troublesome, busy, violent man, very bold but with little understanding, reckoned an active officer and much patronised by Keppel.’ MacBride was also described as being a man of ‘blunt manners and rude elegance.’ He spoke regularly and passionately on military matters. He was an affable, active officer with immense talents whose untimely death was much regretted. It was notable that in the late 1760’s – early 1770’s he was entrusted with several missions when other captains were beached ashore. His work, a ‘Journal of the Winds and Weather at the Falkland Islands’, was later published, and he was an early patron of the carronade. His Devonshire connections were illustrated by his being a friend of Sir Edward Pellew’s father, and his employment of James Bowen, who served as his sailing-master for much of the 1780’s. His flag lieutenant in the early years of the French Revolutionary War was Willoughby Thomas Lake, who subsequently became his son-in-law. MacBride was a great fan of cock-fighting. DAVID MACBRIDE [[Macbride-128|Macbride-128]] David Macbride David Macbride (1726–1778) was an Irish medical writer. He is now remembered mainly for his work on the treatment of scurvy. Contents 1 Life 2 Works 3 Family 4 Notes 5 External links Life Born at Ballymoney, County Antrim, 26 April 1726, he was the son of Robert McBride, Presbyterian minister there, and brother of John MacBride; his mother's name before marriage was Boyd. He was educated at the village school, and apprenticed to a local surgeon.[1] Macbride was for a short time surgeon's mate on a hospital ship and surgeon in the navy, and he acquired an acquaintance with the diseases of seamen which he afterwards turned to advantage. After the peace (1748) he attended lectures on anatomy by Alexander Monro primus in Edinburgh, and, going to London, he heard also William Hunter, on the same subject, and William Smellie on midwifery. In 1749 he returned to Ballymoney, but moved to Dublin in 1751. He joined, and read papers before, the Medico-Philosophical Society there (established in 1756), and after the death of Charles Smith in 1762 he became its secretary. Until 1764, when the publication of Experimental Essays made his reputation, Macbride had only a small medical practice. The University of Glasgow created him M.D. 27 November 1764, and he prospered. In the winter of 1776–7 he began lecturing on medicine in his own house. In December 1767 Macbride made a discovery in the art of tanning, advocating the use of lime water in the process. For this he was, on 31 March 1768, made an honorary member of the Dublin Society, which awarded him a silver medal on 14 April following. The Society of Arts of London subsequently gave him a gold medal. On 14 November 1769 he petitioned the Irish House of Commons for aid in developing his invention, and on 19 Nov. a committee was appointed, which reported favourably; no support seems, however, to have been given. In 1777 Macbride sent over to England by Dr. Morton what was said to be the original of the solemn league and covenant, which he had inherited from his grandfather. In his last years he suffered poor health. He died at his house in Cavendish Row, Dublin, on 28 December 1778; he was buried in St. Audoen's Church there. Works Macbride published: Experimental Essays, London, 1764; 2nd edit. enlarged, 1767; another edit. 1776. The essay "On the Nature and Properties of Fixed Air" in it to a some extent anticipated the discoveries of Henry Cavendish. The book contained the first publication of the gas theories of Joseph Black. Macbride combined Black's ideas with those of Sir John Pringle.[2] Historical Account of the New Method of Treating the Scurvy at Sea, London, 1768. In 1762 Macbride communicated his views on the treatment of scurvy to his friend George Cleghorn, through whom they reached William Hunter and Henry Tone, one of the commissioners for taking care of sick and wounded seamen. Macbride advised the use of fresh wort, as used in brewing, and the Lords of the Admiralty ordered trials. Lemon juice, recommended by James Lind in his Treatise on the Scurvy of 1754, in the end prevailed as a treatment; but Macbride's brother John, who was commander of HMS Jason, made an experiment with the cure in a voyage of 1765–7, and the ship's surgeon, Alexander Young, sent his journal to Macbride, who published it as an appendix to the Historical Account. Joseph Priestley's award-winning work on soda water and scurvy drew on Macbride's ideas.[3] Introduction to the Theory and Practice of Physic, London, 1772; 2nd and enlarged edit. Dublin, 1776, 2 vols. This work grew out of his lectures; it was translated into Latin, and published at Utrecht in 1774. He also contributed medical papers to periodicals. His Account of the Improved Method of Tanning Leather was published in Philosophical Transactions for 1778. The Principles of Virtue and Morality was published, Boston, 1796, as part of "The Moral Library". Family Macbride married, first, on 20 November 1753, Margaret Armstrong; and secondly, on 5 June 1762, Dorcas, widow of George Cumming. He left no issue.

''The clan system was peculiar to the Highlands, although similar tactics were adopted by the grand Borders families. It is generally accepted that 'clan' refers to the Highlands and 'family' to the Lowlands, although this is not universally respected. The Bruces for example, refer to themselves as a House, although at least one overseas association uses the term Clan. There is no 'Clan Bruce', as their chief, the Earl of Elgin, constantly reminds them.'' :'''Clan-based surnames.''' ''There is a popular misconception that anyone bearing a clan surname is descended from the appropriate clan chief. '' :''The point of a clan was to hold territory and defend it from other clans. This obviously depended on having as many followers as possible and, in turn, being in a large and powerful clan was an advantage to the individual, particularly when the Highlands were at their most lawless.'' :''There were other reasons to adopt a clan name other than just protection: for food and shelter, to demonstrate solidarity, to gain favour with the Chief or Laird, to be associated with a powerful neighbour, or just because there was little or no choice in the matter.'' :''Not all members of a clan used the clan name.'' == Aim == :To research the genealogy and family history of all persons past and present with the surname Mackenzie and its linked variants == Scope == :The MacKenzie Name Study project serves as a collaborative platform to collect information on the [https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Mackenzie Mackenzie] name.

It derives from "Mag", an early spelling of "Mac", indicating "son of ", plus the personal byname "Aodh" meaning "Fire", originally the name of a pagan god. The Irish nameholders belonged primarily to Ulster and their original territory lay on the borders of counties Donegal and Tyrone. It is interesting to note that the large neck of land on the east of Lough Larne in County Antrim is called Island Magee indicating that this territory was at one time in the possession of the Magees. The earliest recorded Scottish namebearer was one Gilmighel MacEthe of Dumfries, who rendered homage to King Edward Ist of England n 1296. Other recordings taken from authentic rolls and charters include Michael MacGhethe who was a juror on an inquisition in Annandale in 1304 and Michael Magy who was recorded in Orkney in 1424. Agnis Muggye was married at Templemore, Derry, in 1649, and Alexander Moggy was christened at Ballymoney, Antrim, on October 20th 1831.The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Teag MacGee, "a chief of the sept", which was dated circa 1000a.d. in the "Early Medieval Records of County Westmeath". This was during the reign of King Brian Boru, "High King of Ireland", 1002 - 1014. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

From ''Patronymica Britannica'' (1860) :MAINWARING. In a MS. volume drawn up by Sir William Dugdale, and preserved at Over Peover, it is stated, that the name of this celebrated family has been spelt in the astonishing number of ''one hundred and thirty-one'' forms, in old records and more modern writings. Some of these may be cited as specimens: 1. Mesnilwarin ; 2. Masnihvaren ; 3. Mensilwaren ; 4. Meisnilwaren ; 5. Meidneilwar ; G. Meinilwarin ; 7. Menilwarin ; S. Mesnilwarin ; 9. Mesnilgarin ; 10. Meingarin ; 11. Maynwaringe; 12. Mainwayringe ; 13. Manwaringe ; 14. Mauwairing : 15. Maynwaring : 16. Maynering ; 17. Mannering : 18. Manwaring ; 19. Mainwaring; 20. Manwarren. The founder of the family in England was Randulphus de Mesnilwarin, who accompanied William the Conqueror, and received from him Warmingham, Peover, and thirteen other lordships in Cheshire, together with one in Norfolk. His descendants siread into many branches in Cheshire, and other northern counties, and included many personages of eminence. For ample accounts of the family see Ormerod's Cheshire. Inf. Rev. E. H. Mainwaring Sladen. :The name Mesnil-Warin signifies the Manor of Warin. — Mesnil, now written Menil, enters into many local names, about ninety of which are still found in the Itin. de la Normandie. Warin, Warine, or Guarine, was a common Christian name in Norman times ; but the particular personage who gave name to Mesnil-Warin is lost in the mists of antiquity, and the place itself is not to be traced on the map of Normandy.Lower, Mark A (1860) ''Patronymica Britannica: a dictionary of the family names of the United Kingdom''. London: J.R. Smith. [https://archive.org/details/patronymicabrita00lowe/page/213/mode/1up?q=mainwaring page 213.] From the ''Telegraph'' (Brisbane, Qld, Australia), Saturday 15 August 1936, page 16: :Is Your Name— :MANNERING ? :THERE is always some spirited contention over this surname. It is brought to mind once again by a correspondent who is a Mannering, and who says, I have always understood that this is the oldest and the proper form of Mainwaring though I believe the Mainwarings pretend "that their name is older." Here then is the old. duel and I fear it may never be settled. It would be difficult, if not impossible, to decide the connections, if any, of the Mannerings with Mainwarings, but there is little doubt that the surnames had the same source. The correct pronunciation in both instances is Mannering. It was brought over with the Normans, however, as Mesnilwarin, and this seems remote from any form now in use. But this is a surname which has had some amazing variations, and offers one of the most notorious examples of the manner in which clerks and other persons have played tricks of spelling on names in the past. :Yet it must be agreed that in the matter of early families there is a stronger case for Mainwaring than Mannering. The oldest family were settled in Cheshire at Peover, and Dugdale the antiquarian, who made a collection of data concerning the name, with special reference to it in Cheshire, showed that he had found the extraordinary number of one hundred and thirty-one variations of that single name all drawn from authorised documents. As to this a commentator in "Archaelogia" said that it might be conjectured that these variations were intentional, could any probable motive be assigned for such a practice?" There may have been a motive sometimes. It was suggested by Lower that our ancestors deemed this diversity a specimen of elegant license, for the purpose of avoiding the monotony of a more regular and consistent mode: a specimen of taste somewhat akin to the fastidiousness in modern composition which as studiously rejects the repetition of words and phrases. Obviously there is another explantation. It often happened that variations of spelling were made by persons who, having succeeded, desired nothing more than to set themselves apart; just as so many Smiths will insist on calling themselves Smythe. However, it is clear that the descendants of the Mainwaring who came over with the Conqueror took root in Cheshire. The name was Manwaring as established in Kent, and a family of Manwarings held extensive property there in the time of Queen Elizabeth. The Mannerings have been fairly distributed over many counties. :A baronetcy came into the Cheshire family three hundred years ago but became extinct; a second baronetcy was created at the beginning of the last century, and the present baronet is Sir Harry Stapleton Mainwaring. Rev. Ernest Mannering, now a Sheffield vicar was principal of the Bishop Wilson Theological College in the Isle of Man, and domestic chaplain to the Bishop of Sodor and Man. and was afterwards vice-principal of St. Aidan's College at Birkenhead.MANNERING?

The traditional shield of the family is white with two red bars, so the left hand side of the shield displayed here is that of Mainwaring. The small crescent in the centre is a mark of cadency indicating a second son. Though William was the eldest son of his father Edmund, Edmund was a second son.

MAIR TARTAN:- Yes there is a Mair family Tartan, Designed by Dr. Peter Eslea MacDonald in 1985, and has been accredited by the Council of the Scottish Tartans Society, on the Register of all publicly known Tartans, for Robert Mair, Armiger of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. It is based on an old Hebridean sample together with the heraldic colours, red & yellow, of the Mair Arms. [http://www.surnameweb.org/genealogy/index.php?s_Surnames=Mair Mair surname resource center] Mair Surname Etymology This interesting name, with variant spelling Mare, derives from the Olde Gaelic "maor", a steward, bailiff, or warden, and was originally given as a Scottish occupational name to an officer of the courts whose duty it was to execute summonses and other legal writs. Those who held hereditary appointments were termed "mairs of fee", whereas others were referred to as Praeco Regis (heralds of the king). In an act of the Scottish Parliament, dated 1426, the Mair is described as the "king’s sergeant", and entitled to bear a "horn and wand". The surname was first recorded in the early part of the 13th Century and one Symon le Mare, of Perthshire, rendered homage to Edward 1 of England in 1296, and a Eustace Marr or Mare was collector of contributions of the sheriffdom of Perth in 1360. John Marie, a Scottish merchant, was granted a safe conduct overland to trade between Scotland and England in 1453. John Mair or Major (1469 - 1550) was professor of philosophy and divinity at Glasgow University in 1518. He published "History of Greater Britain, both England and Scotland", in 1521. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Robert le Mare, charter witness at the Priory of May, which was dated circa 1220, in the "Cartulary of the Abbey of Saint Andrew", Scotland, during the reign of King Alexander 11 of Scotland, 1214 - 1249. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Mann Museum in Scituate, Massachusetts [http://scituatehistoricalsociety.org/mann-house/] The South Shore Leader in Historic Preservation and Education, Mann Farmhouse and Museum 108 Greenfield Lane. Three generations of the Mann family lived at the Mann Farmhouse at the corner of Stockbridge Road and Greenfield Lane, direct descendants of early settler Richard Man who lived on North Scituate Mann Hill overlooking Musquashicut Pond where he met his death in 1655/6. John Man or possibly his father Capt. Thomas Man built this typical full Cape. The ell was added and served as a summer kitchen, storage area, and workshop. Percy Mann, the grandson of John Mann and a seventh-generation descendant of Richard Man, lived in this house until 1968, and then He died at the age of 93. The artifacts of the Mann family on display in the Mann Farmhouse date from the seventeenth century to the present time. They were given to the Town of Scituate under the custody and administration of the Scituate Historical Society by two Mann family heirs. The artifacts include primitive Pilgrim furniture, carpenter and shoe-making tools, military items, china, children's toys, early farming equipment, and many valuable documents and books. The collection reflects the varied trades in which the Mann's worked: farming, maritime trade, soldiery in every American war, religion, education, sail making, and more. Several other points of historical interest rest on the grounds of the Mann House property. After Percy Mann had a run-in with the town’s officials in the 1920s, he decided that rather than pay vehicle registration fees, driver’s license fees, and car insurance, he would just drive his automobile into the backyard, park it and never drive it again. Over the course of time, a tree grew up through the middle of the car, which remains where Percy left it almost a century ago. At the eastern end of the land is the final resting spot of Zebby, Percy’s beloved horse. A replica barn, built by local students in the 1970s, contains a fantastic collection of ancient farm tools.

The hope is that other Marble researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. These three are not at all "facts", but loose speculation at best. '''From Marble Genealogist Lynn R. Marble:''' • April 12, 1639, The Marble brothers: John, Samuel, Nicholas, and William sailed from London. • The Marbles sailed aboard the ship "Jonathan" & arrived in Boston, MA. • The Marbles arrived during the "Great Migration" (1630-1642). John was listed as a resident of Boston in 1646 when John Jr. was born. The only child for which there is verifiable documentation is John Jr., the other five are designated as children of John and Judith by many sources, but no known documented birth or baptism records exist. There are many early local histories of New England towns that list these six as the children of John and Judith, but with no reference as to their source of the information. It is thought by Victor Roman (a professional genealogist in Florida) and the late Forest W. Marble of Solon, Ohio, that John (1605) came to America from County Essex, England with a brother, Samuel, in the 1630's. It is thought that John's brother, Samuel, lived for a while in Concord, MA (1666) and at some time had a son, Samuel, who married Rebecca Williams in 1686 at Haverhill, MA and started the Haverhill line of the Marbles. (This Samuel should not be confused with Samuel (1648), the son of John, who married Rebecca Andrews and resided in Andover) There was also a William and Nicholas Marble, who were thought by some to also have been brothers to John and the elder Samuel. William, age about 40 in 1652, lived in Charlestown, MA. and Middlesex court records state that he returned to England. Charlestown, Mass is now Cambridge Mass. ---- My second great grandfather, [[Marble-4|John Marble]], did extensive research on his mother's [[Carey-23|Hannah (Carey) Marble]], family, but because his father died or disappeared, we have little to no clues to determine how he relates to the Marbles described above. The brick wall here is [[Marble-807|Eleazer Marble]], John's paternal grandfather. The family has tried researching his origins to no avail. We have only anecdotal evidence that his daughter stitched a sampler with his birthdate and place - 4 Dec 1762 in Boston, MA. And we know he died in Wilkes-Barre, PA in 1805. DNA seems to have pierced that wall as I found a DNA match to a 6th half-cousin whose ancestor, [[Marble-697|Jesse Marble]], would have been a half brother to Eleazer. Paternal relationship is confirmed by an AncestryDNA test match between [[Marble-739]|Cecily (Marble) Hintzen]] and her 6th half cousin Robert Funkey. Their most-recent common ancestor is their fifth great grandfather, [[Marble-686|Samuel Marble]]. Predicted relationship from AncestryDNA: 5th-8th Cousins, based on sharing 13 cM across 1 segments; Confidence: Moderately High. This suggests that Eleazer was an illegitimate son of [[Marble-686|Samuel Marble]]. In addition, Samuel's last child of record was Ruth born in 1761. yet there is a baptismal record in Sutton dated 3 Oct 1762 for male child of Samuel.Massachusetts Births and Christenings, 1639-1915", database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FCGV-RXJ : 15 January 2020), Samuel Marble in entry for Marble, 1762. == Task List == Who was Eleazer's mother?

This branch of the Marchant's are from Bath, in Somerset, England. I understand that another Marchant family (not related) is also from Bath, England. There are others as well, including, Marchants from: Kent, England; Guernsey, Channel Isles; USA; Canada; Australia; South Africa; New Zealand; Argentina. If you are a Marchant or related to one, and they came from Freshford In Somerset there is a good chance you are from the same branch of the Marchant Family as my wife's family. If that is the case I have a 30 page manuscript along with 9 pages of Family trees. This is: '''Marchant Family History''' Marchant, Arthur Noel. Marchant Family History. Osborne Park, Western Australia 6017. 11 November 1981. Pages 1 - 30 This study was researched and compiled by one of my Relatives [[Marchant-1271|'''Arthur Noel Marchant''']] from Western Australia. It is interesting to note that all of this was done pre computers. ==Biographies== ==Marchant Families== ===England=== ====Somerset==== *Freshford : '''John Marchant 1617''' - is the earliest confirmed Marchant in the [[Marchant-1271|'''Arthur Noel (Noel) Marchant''']] study '''Marchant Family History''' (unpublished) of this branch of the Marchant's. :Noel mentions several earlier names, the earliest being a '''Adam le Marchant''' from Wells, he suggests that there was very probably even earlier members of the family. :The early family was from Wells and later moved to Freshford. :In 1840 some Marchants sailed on the Fairlie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairlie_(1810_ship) to Glenelg in South Australia, Australia. As the family grew the Marchant's could be found throughout South Australia and a branch settled in Albany in Western Australia, Australia. :On the origins of the Marchant's Noel mentions, 2 possibilities: 1 from the ancient Celts and 2 from Guernsey in the Channel Islands. If the latter is the case them there is a strong possibility that there is a French connection. :We do know that Guernsey is a Marchant stronghold, so it is highly likely that there is a connection to the other Marchant families throughout England. *Yeovil ====Kent==== ===Channel Islands=== ====Guernsey==== :The earliest reference to Marchant on Guernsey is Hon.

The Martindales were also a collection of planters and patriots, as mobile and opportunistic as His Excellency's family was fixed. The history of the Martindale family in the New World follows a shifting route that is direct in only one sense, the search for wealth. Their passage also typifies a route of emigration to the American mainland that is little known. Far from being religious seekers, poor and driven, the Martindales came to the American mainland as established patrician settlers.'' The Martindale family that settled in Maryland had ties to General George Washington's family. The families did business together that involved purchases of land. Another line of the Martindale family had settled in Barbados and became wealthy sugar cane plantation owners. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________________________________________________ {{Image|file=Martindale-734.jpg |align=center |size=m |caption=William Hartshorn Martindale, circa 1910 }} {{Image|file=Martindale_Name_Study-3.png |caption= }} ==Martindale Namesakes== Martindale is the name of a small parish in Cumbria, England.

Each family has a different story. Sometimes, they change. Sometimes, they are embellished. Sometimes, over the years the information becomes muddied. By the time it reached the 6th or 7th generation it wasn't the same story as told originally. We all have that story. This is the story of the several Martindale family lines. The original author of this story was named Wilfred Martindale. He was an attorney in West Milton, Ohio. The date he first put this story down into writing and shared it was approximately April 1965. (New England History and Genealogical Register. "Early Inhabitants of Barbados", Vol. 39, page 137.) Many Martindale genealogists have this same information about the earliest known Martindales that traveled to the New World. ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ==Barbados== Barbados is an island that belongs to the chain of islands in the Caribbean. It was inhabited a thousand years ago by what is now considered the "natives". The Europeans discovered it in the 1500s. Portugal and then Spain arrived to the island and did nothing but take the natives as slaves back to Spain. England was able to claim it as their own. In the 1620s, Barbados became a part of the English colonies in the New World. For two decades (1640-1660), thousands flocked to the island. Something to ponder.....the majority of English that traveled to Barbados were indentured servants. For the cost of their passage to the island, they traded 5 years of labor. Upon being released from their service, they would receive 10 lbs of goods or money. If they arrived before the mid 1630s, they even received a small bit of land to call their own. When Barbados gave up tobacco to the state of Virginia, it took up the growing and production of sugar. It became the number one sugar producer out of all the English colonies and stayed that way for close to 200 years. Moneymaker, Will. “English Settlers in Barbados'', Category: History Lessons. Ancestral Findings Website, Ancestral Findings LLC, 2017, ancestralfindings.com/ One patriarch of the Martindales would end up in Barbados, cashing in on the sugar trade that was abundant back then. ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ ==England== "The earliest recorded history of Martindales is Cumberland, Westmorland and Yorkshire, England. How or why they went to Bristol, England is unknown. In 1642, two men named Robert Yoeman and George Boutcher tried to surrender the town of Bristol to the King's army during a reformation against the King. Robert Yoeman was killed, leaving a widow and their 3 children: Ann, Margaret and William. In 1647 George Fox began the preachings that later became the doctrine of the Quakers. Two of his followers were John and Edward Martindale. George Fox would eventually marry Ann Yoeman. Edward would marry Margaret Yoeman. (these are two of Robert Yoeman's children listed above). The widow of Robert Yeoman (her first name is not known) remarried to a Thomas Speed who had multiple shipping interests. In 1656 George Fox and John Martindale were placed in jail. When they were brought to court, there were no charges against John Martindale, but he refused to remove his hat in the presence of the magistrate and consequently he was fined forty pounds and remained in jail. (There were no laws against Quakers at this time...such laws passed in 1660). After about a year, John was released and he immediately fled to Holland in 1659. After Charles II was restored to the throne, Ann Yoeman Fox was rewarded with land in the colonies. Edward Martindale was also a merchant by that time and began trading with the colonies through Thomas Speed's ships. At some point, Edward took some land in the colonies for a debt he was owed. The story goes that he came to America and drowned in Boston Bay in 1671. Back in England, Edward's two sons; Isaac & Robert, remained there and continued the shipping interests. The laws of the day were that in the absence of a will, all land went to the eldest son. The brothers had an agent at the southern tip of Maryland to act on their behalf. In 1705, Isaac sent power of attorney to their agent, John Washington, (George's father) for the purpose of recording the deed in accordance with the requirements of digging some dirt, breaking a twig, and returning it to the land office. John Washington had come to the colonies in 1675 and was now 72 years old and too feeble for such a task. So in 1706, Isaac sent a new power of attorney to a new agent to follow the proper procedures. This deed is recorded in Maryland. Meanwhile, John Martindale in Holland became a government official, and due to his reform beliefs was asked to leave. He left Holland with one slave and his personal belongings coming to the colonies in 1670. He came to St. Mary's, Maryland. On the boat was an Ann Tucker. (no further records are of Ann, so John probably married her the same year). John had to serve two years in the local Militia for his passage to the New World. John Martindale had two sons, Samuel born about 1671 or 1672 and John, born 1676. Son John went to Bucks County, Pennsylvania and is the John Martindale, Cordwainer of Philadelphia written of by another genealogist, Rev. Harry H. Martindale. John is the patriarch of many Martindale descendants today. The father, John Martindale's estate was settled in 1693 being administered by his second wife's husband. The estate's accounting is in pounds of tobacco including a debt he owed a merchant in Plymouth. No heirs are mentioned. Son Samuel remained in Maryland as a merchant. He could not be a Quaker because of his participation in the Talbot County Militia in a rebellion against Lord Baltimore. While serving as Ensign, he obtained 50 acres of land on the Choptank River from a Sargent. The procedure of transation of that day was, Samuel was obligated to turn over one year's crop to the Governor, and the Governor would sell the Sargent virgin land. Church records in Maryland show Samuel's third daughter was baptized in the established Whitemarsh Church with the other two entered later. His eldest of five sons, Henry received the 50 acres on his passing and the remaining family moved to Caroline County. (Original Editor's note: presumably this is Caroline Co., Maryland) Samuel would have 3 grandsons; William, Samuel and Daniel and all served in the Revolutionary War. The last of their service was in North Carolina under General Greene at the Battle of Guilford Court House. {{Image|file=Martindale_Name_Study-3.png |caption= }} .John Martindale II - He was born approx. 1638 in the West Indies. He was the patriarch whose family traveled to Barbados and owned sugar plantations. According to records, he was the son of John Martindale I and Anna Williams. His Will was dated 1674 and probated in 1675. Before 1652 he married, but her name is unknown. His Will indicated that his son, John III was one of the two elder sons, (John III and William) of the 4 sons, total. All boys were under the age of 16 in 1674. This meant that all 4 boys were born in or after 1658 all the way up to John's death in 1674.Barbados Wills and Administrations, Vol I; Section: Wills and Administrations. Ancestry.com.

This Will left his land in Barbados to his two eldest; John III and William. The terms of the Will were subject to payment of 10,000 Ibs of sugar to each son for his education at age 16 and 30,000 Ibs of sugar to each of the two younger sons. These younger sons were Isaac who appears to have been a sugar merchant and relocated to Newport, Rhode Island where he became a prominent part of society. James, the youngest, remained in the Barbados. He continued to produce sugar. In 1674, John II was fined 500 Ibs of sugar for twice failing to appear at the annual muster of Barbados Militia (source given for this was given as "Sufferings of the Quakers" by Jos.Besse) This tells us that he apparently was a Quaker. After his death, his unknown wife perhaps did not raise her sons as Quakers. Eliza (maiden name not known) was the widow of William Martindale (one of the eldest sons) and ended up staying in Barbados as she and William become the ancestors of many Martindales still in Barbados today. {{Image|file=Martindale_Name_Study-3.png |caption= }} ==Early Martindales in America: John Martindale== The most notable is '''[[Martindale-32|John Martindale]].'''

[[Category:Mason Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] ='''''Mason'''''= Mason is a common name, with numerous variants. It is usually an occupational surname derived from stonemasons, although there seem to be exceptions to this, see the section on Italian origins below. This study will be primarily concerned with determining lineages that use the spelling Mason, but variations are welcome, especially if a particular Mason profile uses multiple variants or is the point where one variant changes to another in the lineage. ==Origins== *'''France''': An occupational surname possibly derived from Old French word ''machun'' which means "stone cutter". There has been a Mason family seat in Provence since ancient times[https://www.houseofnames.com/Mason-family-crest/French] Mason is also considered a variant of Masson, which could come from marsh dweller.[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masson_(surname)] *'''England''': The name was brought to England with the Normans after 1066.. Some sources also indicate a Flemish origin. ''"The name Mason originates from Scotland and England. It is derived from the occupational name for a stone mason, from the Middle English, Old Flemish of 'mas(s)on' (apparently of Germanic origin, perhaps akin to the Old English 'macian' which means to make or 'mattuc' meaning mattock). Compiled information from Historical and Private archive's has confirmed that the surname 'Mason' and or it's variant's, dates as far back as the 13th century were a 'Gotte le Mazoun', from the County of Hertfordshire, England, is recorded on the Hundred Rolls in 1273."''[https://www.heraldrysinstitute.com/lang/en/cognomi/Mason/England/idc/600008/] *'''Italy''': the surname derives from Maso, short for Tommaso, ''"The surname Mason was first found in Piedmont (Italian: Piemonte, Piedmontese and Occitan: Piemont) in the 13th century where early records show the Masini family, decedents of a long line of counts, lived and whose members included Oddone, elected captain of the commune in 1284, and Oddonnino, governor of a town, Vercelli, in 1290."''[https://www.houseofnames.com/Mason-family-crest/Italian] *'''Ireland''': ''"Christopher Mason from Sion in Middlesex arrived in Waterford in 1627 and settled there. His grandson John was four times mayor of Waterford between 1696 and 1712. Another line via Robert Mason came to Galway in the 1690’s. Their home was Masonbrook. This line became the Monck Masons and they made their mark as writers."''[http://selectsurnamelist.com/mason.html] *'''Scotland''': Wikipedia lists Mason as a Sept of Clan Sinclair[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Sinclair#Clan_septs] and also as a variant of Masson, which could come from MacMhathain[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masson_(surname)] ==Variants== There are an amazing amount of variations for this name.

(Maupin) Ray (1738-aft.1799)]] == The Name: Maupin - Origins and Variations == An excellent resource on the Maupin family is [[Space:The_Story_of_Gabriel_and_Marie_Maupin|The Story of Gabriel and Marie Maupin]] which is cited below. From page 29, the author says: :"The name "de Maupin" or "le Maupin" (the use of "le" is often earlier) is a Shield-name. A shield-name is a surname adopted by a family in Medieval Europe, always of the knightly class or above, as a short-hand term describing the device which was customarily painted on the fighting shields of the family's mounted warriors. All shield-names, anywhere in Europe, are unique ones. It was punishable by law for any other family to use either the device or the term used to describe it. Armed men could only be recognized by their shields; their helmets either partly or entirely hid their faces. To avoid the unauthorized use of another family's shield, careful lists were kept of the devices. These lists, in France, culminated in Rietstap's monumental work "Armorial General" published in 1884 and still considered the definite work on the subject. How old the Maupin surname is, is not known. The earliest so-far-known Maupin was Jean de Friville in 1256 (de Gorgue-Rosny). It is generally believed that shield-names are not older than the use of painted shields, perhaps in the early 1100's. Most shield-names describe some object, often a natural object. Very common are trees, plants, birds, real or imaginary beasts. Most, but not all, shield-names are menacing in nature. The surname was also the war-cry - it was meant to dismay the enemy in the field. As a group more French shield-names are truly brutal sounding than English ones are. "Maupin" and all the many "Mau" shield-names in French are names in this later class." Again, from [[Space:The_Story_of_Gabriel_and_Marie_Maupin|The Story of Gabriel and Marie Maupin]]: :""Mau" is an Old French word, the best translation for which is probably "Baneful". "Pin" means "Pinetree" in both Old French and Modern French (the whole tree not the pine cones)." "Here is Rietstap's description of the full device. "The shield: red, shows three gold pine cones. The crest: a unicorn rising; The supports: two savages, girth with green". It seems there are many websites that would like to sell you items bearing your "family crest" or packets of info about a surname. Those who claim that the name Maupin is of English origin are suspect! It is certainly possible that a Maupin ancestor emigrated to England during or following the Norman conquest, but the origin is undoubtedly French. Many, if not all, of the Maupins in this study so far, descend from [[Maupin-39|Gabriel Maupin]] a Huguenot refugee who fled religious persecution in France in 1688 to Amsterdam, and subsequently left England for America in 1700. Exactly who his parents were has not yet been documented. One family story is that all of the ancestors prior to Gabriel went by "De Maupin," but the name Maupin is also seen in historical French records before Gabriel's time. So, more may be learned! Another variation commonly seen, especially in census records, is '''Moppin'''. Often, but not always, when "Moppin" is seen, the "Maupin" name is also associated with the same individual in other records. The pluralized form of the name is also seen, i.e. Maupins and Moppins. :The 2010 Census breaks it out like this: {|class="wikitable" style="text-align: center" border="1" |'''Name''' ||'''Count''' ||'''Popularity Rank'''||% white||% black||% 2+ race |- |Maupin || 6051 ||5,730 ||87.99 ||5.69 || 2.05 |- |Maupins|| 153 ||114,424 ||13.73 ||75.16 ||5.23 |- |Moppin|| 437 ||48,347 ||72.54 ||14.19 ||5.26 |- |Moppins|| 154 ||113,791 || (s) ||90.91 || (s) |} Other Maupin, Maupins, Moppin and Moppins lines of descent of any ethnicity are encouraged to join in this study as well! == Notable Maupins == *[[Maupin-39|Gabriel Maupin (1666-bef.1720)]] and his wife, [[Hersant-2|Marie (Hersant) Maupin]], the original Huguenot refugee immigrants. *[[Maupin-651|Howard Maupin (1815-1887)]], the pioneer for whom [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maupin%2C_Oregon Maupin, Oregon] is named. *[[Maupin-1260|James Rogers Maupin (1852-1885)]], a founder and the first president of Southwest Baptist College in Missouri. *[[Maupin-273|William Major Maupin (1863-1948)]] a journalist and newspaper man in Nebraska. *[[Maupin-812|Harry Carr Maupin (1872-1952)]], National League pitcher in 1898-1899. *[[Maupin-537|Armistead Maupin Jr]] (living) is son of [[Maupin-616|Armistead Jones Maupin Sr. (1914-2005)]] and is a writer/novelist.

Maccus, son of Undewyn, a Saxon lord in the reign of the Scottish King David I, was granted land on the River Tweed at some time before 1150. His salmon fishery there became known as Maccus's Wiel (from Old English wael, a 'pool'). The lands acquired the same name and the Maxwell family took their name from them. It is thought that the placename and surname Maxton of Roxburghshire derive from the same Maccus. One of the Maxtons of Perthshire penned the famous 'Maxton Litany" which offers an interesting aside on a few Ulster names: :From the greed of the Campbells, :From the ire of the Drummonds, :From the pride of the Grahams, :From the wind of the Murrays, :Good Lord, deliver us. The first on record to use the name Maxwell in its modern form was Sir John Maxwell, chamberlain of Scotland in the 13th century. The Maxwells were based in Annadale in Dumfriesshire and became Lords Maxwell and Earls of Nithsdale. They were the strongest of the riding clans of the West March of the Scottish Borders until they were eclipsed by the Johnstones in the 16th century. For centuries they were wardens of the West March and stewards of Annandale and Kirkcudbright. Their feud with the Johnstones was perhaps the longest, bloodiest and most famous in Scottish history. After the riding clans were broken by James VI and their social system eradicated, many Maxwells turned to the Plantation of Ulster to escape persecution. Perhaps not surprisingly they did not follow their neighbours the Johnstones, the Armstrongs, the Irvines and so on, to Co. Fermanagh, preferring to settle in Down and Antrim. == Maxwells Worldwide== '''I invite all WikiTree Maxwell researchers to join the study and add your research here.''' *[http://www.maxwellsociety.com/History/Migration.htm The Maxwell Society - How the Maxwells spread across the world ] '''Maxwells in Australia''' [[Maxwell-9444|Joe Maxwell]] was awarded the Victoria Cross for Australia in the Great War.

With the New England Planters in 1762, [[Maxwell-3267|William Maxwell]] was an early participant in establishing the Township of Sackville, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia, later Westmoreland County, New Brunswick, in 1762. In 1776, William sided with the Americans and was deported to Maine.

[[Category:One Name Studies Project, New Projects]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:McAdoo Name Study]] == The Name McAdoo == A popular theory on the origin of the surname McAdoo (correctly pronounced 'Mack-Uhh-Due') is that the name McAdoo is derived from an Anglicized form of the Middle Gaelic words '''Mac Conduibh''' or '''Mac Cú Dhubh''' referring to a family, tribe, sept, clan, or byname meaning a 'Son of the Black Hound Tribe'. The name is formed from a genitive construction of the Gaelic words '''Mac''' 'son of' + '''cú''' 'hound' + '''dhubh''' 'black'. The hound referred to is most likely the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Deerhound Scottish (aka Highland) Deerhound], which is a fast, strong, wire-haired [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sighthound sighthound] purposely bred to hunt [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_red_deer red deer] by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coursing coursing] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deer_stalking deer-stalking]. Scottish sighthounds were bred from the same original Vertragus or Celtic Hound stock as Irish Wolfhounds to hunt by sight and speed rather than scent and endurance. Quintus Aurelius Symmachus, a Roman consul writing in 391CE, described seven "''canes Scotici''", that he got as a gift to be used for fighting lions and bears, as "viewed by all in Rome with wonder". These hounds are probably the breed of hound depicted on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilton_of_Cadboll_Stone Hilton of Cadboll Stone], a Pictish engraving originally located on the Tarbat Peninsula in Easter Ross, Scotland, dated to 800 CE. There are other alternative theories to the origin of the name, and maybe we can document more in this ONS. For now, let us leave it as those descended from the Tribe of the Black Hound. There are also many spelling variants of the surname McAdoo caused, no doubt in part, by transcription errors, poor spelling by the original data recorder, illegible handwriting, or similar errors and mistakes in the documentary records. These include [https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/McAdow McAdow], McAdoe, McAdowe, Mackadowe, McKindoe, McAldo, McIndoo, and McIndue. According to the website [https://forebears.io/surnames/mcadoo Forebears], the last name McAdoo is most commonly found in North America where 89% (87% US and 2% Canada) of the world's living McAdoo's reside The surname McAdoo is found in 23 countries of the world, with descending incidence, in the United States, Northern Ireland, Canada, England, Ireland, Australia, Scotland, South Africa, Thailand, and Wales. There are an estimated 4,758 McAdoo's living in the United States, and of those approximately 11% reside in Texas, 10% in North Carolina, and 8% in California. ==== Plantation of Ulster ==== :The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantation_of_Ulster Plantation] of the Irish Province of Ulster was a carefully orchestrated plan by then King James, who at the time was both King James VI of Scotland and also King James I of England and Ireland, to populate lands in the old Irish 'Province of Ulster' that were abandoned by their ancestral native Irish Clan Lords and confiscated by the British Crown after the end of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Years%27_War_(Ireland) Irish Nine Years' War (1594-1603) aka Tyrone's Revellion] and the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_of_the_Earls ''Flight of the Earls''] from Ulster to Spain in 1607. :The Plantation involved a ''not necessarily voluntary'' migration of mostly Lowlander Scots and borderlands English tenant farmers from western Scotland and England to settle on the escheated lands granted to the original "Undertakers" beginning in 1609 and largely completed by 1613. Additional migration occurred thereafter as the granted estates were bought and sold. :At the time of the 1609 Plantation, the Province of Ulster consisted of nine counties. :These nine traditional counties of Ulster Province, included the six counties of today's Northern Ireland a part of the United Kingdom and three counties: Donegal, Cavan, and Monaghan which voted to be a part of the 'Irish Free State' upon the 1921 partition of Ireland. The three became a part of the 26 counties in the 'Republic of Ireland' when the name was changed again in 1948. :The earliest documented McAdoo (so far) in Ulster is a James McAdowe listed on the Muster Roll of 1630 for the Barony of Raphoe, County Donegal, in service to the Lady Cunningham, widow of one of the original "Scottish Undertakers", [[Cuninghame-98|Sir James Cuninghame Laird of Glengarnock (1580-1623)]] who originating from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayrshire Ayrshire], a coastal county in the Scottish Lowlands located west of present-day Glasgow. :The McAdoo ONS pages concerning the history and background of McAdoos involved in the Plantation are located here: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Ulster_Plantation_McAdoo_ONS Plantation of Ulster]. ==== Community Migration ==== :It is clear from the records that the McAdoos most often migrated in larger community groups and only rarely as individuals or single family groups. The community groups included members of their extended families and their friends and neighbors. Prior McAdoo genealogy work shows certain surnames with McAdoo families occuring repeatedly in marriages from Ulster into one or more of the thirteen British colonies and continuing even into the next wave of westward pioneer settlement after the Revolutionary War into Tennessee, Kentucky, and the Ohio River valley territories and westwards into Missouri, Arkansas, and Texas up until about the 1880s. The voluntary migration out of Ulster to America reached its peak after 1718 and was largely complete by 1760. ==== Scotch-Irish Identity in America ==== :This group in America self-identified as '''Scotch-Irish''' and has been referred to as such since their arrival by American historians. The group may have been, and still may be, known from the strictly Irish perspective as 'Ulster Scots', or from the strictly Scotland perspective as 'Scots-Irish' but in America they were referred to on arrival, and are referred to today, as 'Scotch-Irish'. :The Scotch-Irish were hard boiled, no-nonsense, Protestants (overwhelmingly Presbyterian) who, after 100 years in Ulster, were indurated to the hardships of frontier life along a dangerous border with an often beligerant local Irish indigenous population that their Plantation was intentionally designed by the English overlords to suppress. In arrival in colonial America the Scotch-Iriish quickly populated the western frontiers of Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the Carolinas. They were clannish, kept to themselves and were not well received by the Quakers, the Puritans, and the Anglican English settlers in America when they arrived. That attitude changed during the Revolutionary War. :The Scotch-Irish are not to be confused with the 410,000 documented and possibly another 1 million undocumented Irish immigrants (overwhelmingly Catholic but many of whom may have also been protestant Ulster-Scots) who later poured, in great numbers, into America after 1840 as a result of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Famine_(Ireland) Great Irish Potato Famine]. :In their attempts to suppress the indigenous Irish the English overlords unwittingly created the animosity of a second population with an axe to grind. And grind it they did in the American Revolutionary War. Scotch-Irish signed up for the Continental Line and state militias in great numbers, shoulder to shoulder with the true Irish they had met in good times and bad in Ulster. At the time the Scotch-Irish made up about 10% of the population of the colonies, they made up to 40% of the total American forces and over as much as 70% of the patriot army from Pennsylvania and the southern colonies.

Nancy Ann Colville has Norman ancestors that connect her as a grand-daughter in a direct bloodline to [[Normandie-32|Guillaume (Normandie) de Normandie (abt.1027-1087)]] known to history as William the Conqueror, Duke of Normandy, and William I King of England. :The Normans are originally a Viking tribe led by Hrólfr (aka Rollo, and yes that "Rollo" from the TV series "Vikings") who was ceded the Duchy of Rouen by the French Monarch in exchange for Rollo's cessation of attacks on Paris and conversion to Christianity. Rollo, Count of Rouen, established the origins of what would become Normandy in northern France. Count Rollo is the 3xGreat Grandfather of William the Conqueror. :Since William conquered England and assumed the English throne in 1066, his family and bloodline permeates England, Scotland, and Ireland's nobility from that year onwards.

The story goes he earned the sobriquet "Devil John" by his fearless, some might have said reckless, tactics in battle and his ruthless attitude towards Loyalist Militia who he blamed for killing his unarmed 15-years old nephew. :'''McAdoo ONS Task''':
# Is this profile, [[McAdoo-375|John McAdoo Jr. (abt.1762-bef.1820)]], really Captain "Devil John". # Was Devil John the same John McAdow who was the one patriot killed in action at the battle between patriots and loyalists at [https://www.carolana.com/NC/Revolution/revolution_raft_swamp.html Raft's Swamp] on 15 October 1781 as reported in some historical accounts?

The Tory War was notably vicious and atrocities were committed by both sides. It was a war among neighbors and it got personal. :James apparently sought and received a formal Pardon from either the Continental Congress or the North Carolina General Assembly for the act. On an inaccessible Ancestry.com family tree, there are copies of the record of the congressional pardon that was granted. A copy of this source document is an important note to include in the profile of the appropriate James, possibly this one: [[McAdoo-195|James McAdoo (abt.1754-1799)]]. :'''McAdoo ONS Task''':
:Find and collect an image or transcription and citation for the Pardon of James McAdoo for the killing. ==== Connect the Branches: Gibbs - Rev.

:Identify, profile, and connect Arthur and James to one or more of the known McAdoo family lines. :'''Clues and Working Hypothesis''':
:The Compact signers may be from any of the multiple McAdoo family lines in the Southern Colonies by 1780. However, Arthur McAdoo is the only McAdoo of the era to have the first given name, Arthur. It is an unusual given name among colonial-era McAdoo's. :[[McAdoo-600|Arthur McAdoo (bef.1755-)]] The 1800 US Census shows an Arthur McAdoo living in a household of seven persons in the Pendleton District on South Carolina's western border with Tennessee. Given the propensity of Scotch-Irish McAdoo's to name children for parents and grandfathers it is reasonable to assume that there may be more Arthurs in this line. :[[McAdoo-601|William McAdoo (bef.1744-)]] is shown on consecutive lines with Arthur on the same census in the same South Carolina district which suggests they are related as father-son or brothers. No age data was enumerated in the 1800 Census. ==== Identify Alphas of Other McAdoo Branches ==== :There are other branches of the McAdoo family in America that emigrated from Ulster or Scotland or perhaps Ireland or England. The males or heads of immigrating families are on arrival in America categorized as AlphaMcAdoos. An example is the family of AlphaMcAdoos headed by the [[McAdoo-196|James McAdoo II (1780-1843)]] who is also considered to be a TreeTopMcAdoo by virtue of the details and origin of his father are not yet known. :'''McAdoo ONS Task''':

The word "study" might sound formal, but it's really not. This McClintock Name Study is a way for us to work together on WikiTree for a common goal. Let's research dead ends and uncover all the info we can about McClintock genealogy! == How to Join == You can just jump in after reading the goals and process described below for this project. If you have any questions, please contact the project leader [[McClintock-744|Alison McClintock]] or leave a comment at the foot of the page. Thanks! == Goals == # Source any unsourced family member # Connect any unconnected family member to one of the oldest McClintock lineages in the United States # Discover the relationship between the oldest McClintock individuals within the United States and any immigration to the United States. # Gather a list of useful sources # Make a list of McClintock notables (it's fun to see how/if you're related!) If you have other ideas for how to use this study, please contact the project leader [[McClintock-744|Alison McClintock]] or post a comment to the right. Thanks! === Adding a Profile to this Study === Please avoid adding every McClintock profile to this Study. See '''List of McClintock Profiles''' below, to get a sorted list of every McClintock profile on WikiTree. The criteria for adding a McClintock profile to this study are: # Add a McClintock profile to this study if their McClintock ancestor is currently unknown (or uncertain). # Add a McClintock profile to this study if they are Adopted. # The top level progenitors of the main McClintock families have already been added to the study. To add your ancestor to this study, simply copy the following template to the Biography section of his or her profile: ::

{{One Name Study|name=McClintock|category=McClintock Name Study}}

Once the profile is connected to the main McClintock family line, then remove the template from the profile. Keep the template if the McClintock parentage is marked as uncertain. === Process === # Take [[[:Category:McClintock_Name_Study|existing unconnected or uncertain McClintock profiles]] on WikiTree and use records found on FamilySearch.org, and Find A Grave, to reconstruct pedigree as much as possible # Find other McClintocks on FamilySearch.org and Find A Grave, add them to WikiTree, reconstruct pedigree or find where they fit in existing families # Find any historical newspaper references to any McClintock in the United States # Find any histories of the McClintock family, whether books, previous personal research, or other written materials. Use these to compare against primary records. # Add profiles without known parents to this study so they'll be on our list of profiles that need further research == McClintock Genealogy == [[:Category:McClintock_Name_Study|List of McClintock profiles added to this study]]] (these should only be profiles of people with unknown or uncertain parents).

Thanks! == Origins of the Name == The following information regarding the origins of the McClure name was taken directly from "The McClure Family" by James Alexander McClure. ''"THE ORIGIN of the name McClure has been frequently discussed in the genealogical literature of Great Britain. The following theories have been advanced: ''1. The name (variously spelt McClure, McCluer, McClewer, Madure, McLewer, McLure, and McLuir), comes from the Gaelic word MacLobhair, pronounced MacLour, and means "son of the leper.'''' ''2. That it comes from the Gkielic MacGioUa-odhar (which in the genitive is uidhar and pronounced ure), contracted to Macllure and hence McLure or McClure, and means "son of the pale one." This theory is advocated by Rev. Edmund McGlure, M. A., London Secretary of the Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge.'' ''3. That it is a derivation of the Gaelic MacLeabhaLr, (pronounced MacLour) and means "of the book," they were the teachers in the Clan McLeod, just as the Mc- McBimmons (or McCrimmons) were the dan pii>eis. They were MacLeabhair McLeods, McLeabhair (McLour, McLure, McClure), eventually becoming the sir-name. Several Gaelic scholars deny this derivation of the name, tho' admitting the very ancient tradition of the McGlure tutorship in the Clan McLeod.'' ''4. That the name is identical with MacLir (or MacLur) the seagod of Ireland and the Isle of Man. This theory is advanced in an article published in the Dublin University Magazine on the late Sir Bobert McClure, the navigator.'' ''5. The McClures were originally a Manx family, the first legendary king of the Island being a Manannan McClure, is the tradition inherited by the McClures of Manchester, England, to which family belong the late Sir John W. McClure, M. P., and the Very Rev. Edward C. McClure, D. D., Dean of Manchester. Held also by Sir Edward Stanley MoOuTe.'' ''6. That the name means "great bruiser.'' An ancient king of Scotland was attacked by highwaymen. One of his attendants so distinguished himself by his prowess that he was called MacClure; "Mac" signifying "great" as well as "son of." A blow from the fist is still known in Scotland as a dure.'' ''7. That it originated in the ancient sport of Falconry, in which the lure was used to recall the falcon. The crest of this family of McLures is a hand in armour holding a falconer's lure.'' ''8. A soldier from the ancient town of Lure in Normandy crossed over with William the Conquerer. He was rewarded for his service by a grant of land in the Island of Skye and was known as DeLure, Mac being later substituted for De, to harmonize with the Gaelic custom.'' ''9. The theory advocated by Rev. J. Campbell McOure, Minister of Marykirk, Kincardinshire, Scotland, is that the McClures are a sept of the Clan McLeod. In addition to extant records in Galloway of the McClure family, showing it to be of McLeod origin, Mr. McGlure states that the family tradition handed down to him through a long line of long-lived ancestors is, "In early times a sept of the MacLeods left the Island of Skye for Ulster, where the northem Irish slurred the 'd' of MacLuide (as it was then pronounced) into 'r,' hence, MacLure. Later many of the name passed over from the northeast of Ireland to Galloway, thus to Wigtonshire and so on to Ayrshire. These districts to day contain many McClures."'' ''It is certain that McClures are in some way connected with the Clan McLeod, evidenced by the fact that the oldest traditions of the family in Scotland take them back to the Isle of Skye; the traditions of Skye link together the McClures and the McLeods; McClures have always had the same motto, crest and tartan as the McLeods, and their right to them has never been called in question."'' ===Surname Variants=== * [https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/MacClure MacCLure] * MacLure * MacCloor * McLeur * McCloor * McClewer == How You Can Help == :1. '''Add the Category to Profiles''' As a project member, please add the McClure Name Study category to each profile which is a McClure or any of the variants of McClure by adding the following to those profiles: '''[[Category:McClure Name Study]]''' Do not place the category on the spouse of a McClure, but do place it on the children of McClures who are born with that name or any of its variants. Also place the category for where the person is born as follows: '''[[Category:State, McClure Name Study]]''' See the list of place sub-categories below. If you need help adding a place category, contact the profile manager. The One Name Study template is reserved for profiles of the Emigrant Settlers who came from Europe to the New World as described in #2. :2. '''European Emigrant Ancestors''' Please add the template for the McClure One Name Study to profiles for each emigrant/settler arriving in the New World from Europe, above the Biography heading as follows: '''{{One Name Study|name=McClure}}'''. Their name should also be added to the Subsection "Emigrant/Settler Ancestors" with their dates and places of birth and death. A family group will then be created. Please send the profile manager a message requesting that a family group be created. Then the family group sub-category can be added to each descendant of the Emigrant. :3.

==Surname Meanings== ===Meaning of McCombe=== This interesting and unusual surname is of Scottish origin, and is the Anglicization of the Gaelic "Mac Thom", which translates as "son of Tom", the Mac denoting "son of", and is often found recorded in England as Thom. Thomas, and its diminutive form Thom, is a popular medieval given name of biblical origin, which was an Aramaic byname meaning "twin", borne by one of Christ's disciples, best known for his scepticism. The surname development in Scotland since 1526 (see below) includes the following: Roger M'Com (1679, Kirkcudbright), and Robert McKome (1684, Carsfern). The modern variants include, McColm, McComb, McCome and McKomb. Among the recordings from Scottish Church Registers are the marriages of Robert Mc Combe and Margaret Ross on December 28th 1711, at Dalkeith, Midlothian, and of Archibald Mc Comb and Elizabeth Forrest on October 13th 1745, at Edinburgh, also in Midlothian. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Gilchrist Makcome, which was dated 1526, in the "Register of the Privy Seal of Scotland", during the reign of King James V of Scotland, 1513 - 1542. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling. "McCombe." The Internet Surname Database.

Thomas, and its diminutive form Thom, is a popular medieval given name of biblical origin, which was an Aramaic byname meaning "twin", borne by one of Christ's disciples, best known for his scepticism. The surname development in Scotland since 1526 (see below) includes the following: Roger M'Com (1679, Kirkcudbright), and Robert McKome (1684, Carsfern). The modern variants include, McColm, McComb, McCome and McKomb. Among the recordings from Scottish Church Registers are the marriages of Robert Mc Combe and Margaret Ross on December 28th 1711, at Dalkeith, Midlothian, and of Archibald Mc Comb and Elizabeth Forrest on October 13th 1745, at Edinburgh, also in Midlothian. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Gilchrist Makcome, which was dated 1526, in the "Register of the Privy Seal of Scotland", during the reign of King James V of Scotland, 1513 - 1542. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling. "McComb." The Internet Surname Database.

The goal of this project is to share genealogical McCord research discoveries preferably with known, verifiable sources. Yet, we are handicapped by the loss of public records for McCords both in the USA & the UK, prior to the 1800's. Hence, drawing a direct family line to ancestors across the Atlantic is near impossible. But there is hope! New genetic testing technologies has entered the realm. I am [[McCord-4069|Kathleen McCord]] and have been researching McCords, in the USA, the UK and elsewhere since 1999. I also am co-administrator for the McCord Ydna Project on Family Tree DNA. Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and could use your help with sharing the research data that we already know. I have listed a lot of documents to upload and after you read them, questions and commentary is encouraged. McCords have a long and very interesting history. One to be proud of. Will you join me?

Spelling variations: Cormack, MacCormack, McCormack, Cormack, MacCormack, McCormack, McCormick, MacCormick, Cormac, Cormach, Cormich, Cormiche McCormick, MacCormick, Cormac, Cormach, Cormich and Cormiche. It comes from the first name of the original bearer. A person whose father was named Cormac would identify as Mc (i.e. "son of") Cormac; the combination was continued as the family name by subsequent generations. Cormac is translated literally as "Charioteer, Warrior, Brewer". The name was a very popular choice of names by parents in medieval times: this was due to the influences of the Saint of the same name. Saint Cormac was the first Bishop of Cashel an important diocese in the south of Ireland. Cashel was also the King of Munster and responsible for a famous book of Psalms, the Cashel Psalter, he died in battle in AD 908. In those days the McCormack was the name of a powerful Sept (Clan or Family) in the county of Longford. Another possible origin is that is comes from "corb" meaning raven, so translate to "Ravenson". In 1659 Cormac was a principal name of Kildare, O'Cormack a principal name of Cork and also found in Limerick, while McCormack was a principal name in Down also found in Cork, Kerry, Limerick and Roscommon. The 1890 index shows McCormick as the preferred spelling in the Ulster counties of Antrim and Down. McCormack is favored in Dublin, Mayo, Roscommon and Limerick. The shortened form of Cormack is found in Kilkenny and Tipperary in much smaller numbers. == McCormacks in Ireland == ===Origins=== Nearly all of the Irish clans descend from Milesius, king of modern day Spain, through his three sons Heremon, Ir or Heber. Milesius received a mysterious prophecy about conquering the land across the sea but died before he could fulfill it. The responsibility was undertaken by his eight sons. The sons sailed across the sea along with their sons and soldiers to take Ireland. Five of them were killed upon reaching the shore in a bloody battle with the Tuatha de Danann. However they won the battle and the remaining sons- Heremon, Heber and Amergin along with the sons of Ir, went on to conquer the island. Milesian genealogies claim they began their rule if Ireland in 1699 BC. The McCormacks descend from Heber, who was later killed by his brother Heremon in an argument over territory. The ancient Homeland of the McCormack family was the kingdom of Munster where they would thrive for centuries. Notable members of the clan included Nathi, a brother of Felim. He was the King of Munster in the mid sixth century. Cormac Mac Cuilennáin (836-908 AD), the bishop king of Munster, write the famous Sanas Cormaic (Cormac's Glossary). It was the first linguistic dictionary in a non-classical language in Europe. It is full of etymologies and explanations for more than 1, 400 words. TheCormacks, along with the O'Connors, McKeoghs, McGowans and O'Mores, were also of the line of Roderick (Rory) the Great, the red haired high king of Ireland. The line of Milesius ruled Ireland for nearly 3, 000 years. It was far from a unified land with lots of rivalry and conflict between the clans. The island came under the power of King Henry II in 1171 after the Cambro-Norman invasion. He landed on an island near Waterford with a large, ready to take the lands the Normans had conquered. Many of the Normans barkns submitted to him in return for keeping their lands. He also rallied the support if several Gaelic chieftains, who were tired if the constant warfare. After the invasion of Henry II, many English and Scottish settlers came to live in Ireland. At the time Ireland was made up of the lands of the Norman barons, the suffering chieftains such as the McCormacks and the Pale- an area including Dublin completely controlled by the Crown. The chieftains soon realized their land had been taken and they were under the oppression of the king. Their ancient way of life was gone. Before the invasion of the Normans, Ireland had a relatively small population. There was no need for surnames. The Normans settled in Ireland and intermarried, introducing their surnames into the mix. As the population increased, there were too many people with the same forename. Each of the clans adopted a surname, taken from the forename of a notable ancestor with the prefix "Mac" (son of) or "O" (descendant of) added. The McCormacks took their name from Cormaic, son of Cabhsan, a chieftain of the clan. In 1576, 1598 and 1600, MacCormicks are recorded as leading gentry in County Cork and one, of Muskerry, was influential enough to raise a large force to assist Desmond in the Elizabethan wars. The Annals of the Four Masters record the deaths of several prominent MacCormicks of County Fermanagh; the last of these died in 1431. ===Distribution=== '''McCormack Households in Griffiths Valuation''' Antrim: 134 Armagh: 46 Belfast city:11 Carlow: 10 Cavan: 49 Clare: 36 Cork: 6 Cork city: 10 Derry: 43 Donegal: 105 Down: 96 Dublin: 36 Dublin city: 12 Fermanagh: 34 Galway: 39 Kerry: 10 Kildare: 4 Kilkenny: 7 Laois: 20 Leitrim: 16 Limerick: 35 Limerick city: 8 Longford: 69 Louth: 38 Mayo: 34 Meath: 55 Monaghan: 35 Offaly: 30 Roscommon: 60 Sligo: 44 Tipperary: 50 Tyrone: 93 Waterford: 5 Westmeath: 40 Wexford: 2 Wicklow: 1 == McCormacks in Scotland == The Plantations begun during the reign of Henry VIII from 1491 to 1547, continued by his successors Mary I, Elizabeth I and James I. There was another planation led by Cromwell in 1649. Irish Earls rebelled but were defeated time after time, particularly at the Battle of Kinsale in 1601. In 1607, the O'Neills and O'Donnells left Ireland from Lough Swilly in Donegal accompanied by ninety followers, known as the "Flight of the Earls". Land was confiscated from numerous Gaelic chieftains and given to English settlers- but also Scots, from the highlands and lowlands of Scotland. The McCormacks in Scotland were a sept of some of the mighty Scottish clans MacLean of Duart, MacLaine of Lochbuie and Buchanan. The McCormacks may have come from the island of Mull (thirty miles from Northern Ireland) of Scotland and many of them were planted in Ulster (where the majority of McCormacks are found today. It is theorized that the McCormacks leaving Scotland for Ireland could have been returning to the homes of their ancestors. Many of the clans of Scotland, including the MacLeans, descended from Irish immigrants who had gone in the fifth century to found the kingdom of Dalriada. The Scottish McCormacks have a long and illustrious history in Scotland. In January 880, the monks of Iona recorded the death Fedorach MacCormaic, their abbot. Gilchrist mac Cormaic was the bishop of Dunkeld(modern day Argyllshire and Perthshire), and believed to be the progenitor of Clan MacMillan (MacMillan translates loosely to "son of the tonsured one"- referring to the way in which priest's head were tonsured or shaved). He witnessed a deed in the Book of Deer in 1132. In the 1500s, chieftain "McLean of Duart" evicted his cousin "Maclaine of Lochbuie" from the island of Mull. Maclaine went to County Antrim and appealed to the Earl of Antrim, McDonnell. The Earl gave him twelve men, all besting the surname McCormick/McCormack. They aided Maclaine in recovering Moy Castle, his former homestead. In gratitude, Maclaine carved "McCormick is welcome here" in Gaelic into the stone lintel over the doorway of his castle. Irish Immigration Between the 18th and 20th centuries, " Irish Immigration- Ancient links between both countries'' • Many Irish came from the 1700s to work seasonally on the land in the south west of Scotland. High rents and terrible poverty in Ireland drove many away from Ireland. • Many willing to work for wages even lower than the Highlanders • Many willing to do dirty, dangerous and low work no one else would do (e.g sugar work in Greenock) • Many worked as navies on the canals (1700s) and railways (1800s) • Many were skilled textile workers with experience in eth linen trade; worked in places like Paisley, Lanark, Glasgow and Dundee. By 1841, about 125,000 of Irish birth in Scotland. By 1851, 19% of Dundee and 18% of Glasgow was of Irish origin; after 1850, many went to America instead. The Irish influence • Native Scots resented the Irish and accused them of dragging wages down (true). • Many Irish did huge amount of work in Scottish industry; the railways; canal building • By 1880, the Irish were becoming influential in the trade union movement; helping to push up wages. • This was no help to the bad housing shortage In Scotland • Led to even greater religious intolerance; Catholics from Southern Ireland and protestants from Northern Ireland hated each other; the Scots joined in to this hatred. Glasgow soon divided. Protestant Orange marches caused much street violence; football became a focus for this anger. == Earliest Recorded McCormack Immigrants == https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.houseofnames.com/mccormack-family-crest *Dennis McCormack, who arrived in Massachusetts in 1654 *Neal McCormack whose name appears in Kings County, Virginia Court records in May 1708 *Duncan McCormack, who immigrated to Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1749 *Lawrence McCormack, aged 40, landed in Tennessee in 1812 *James McCormack, a labourer aged 30 departing from Belfast, came to St John, New Brunswick, Canada on "John & Mary" in 1833 *Catherine McCormack, aged 25 departing from Belfast, landed in St John, New Brunswick, on the "John & Mary" in 1833 *Henry McCormack, who arrived in Allegany (Allegheny) County, Pa in 1836 *Elenor McCormack came to Nova Scotia, Canada, in 1840 *Philip McCormack, aged 23, landed in Mobile County, Ala in 1843 *Thomas McCormack, aged 26, arrived in Mobile County, Ala in 1843 *Mary McCormack, aged 26, arrived in New York, NY in 1847 *John McCormack, aged 64 departing from Liverpool, arrived at the Grosse Isle Quarantine Station in Quebec, Canada, on the "Erin's Queen".

Adding the Ahentafel coding used by Carol to each profile will help keep the lines straight as many names are repeated through the generations. The code may be added to the suffix or in the link to this free-space project or both. Here are some of the tasks to complete: #Search for McCraw profiles on WikiTree and use Carol's book to link them back to William. #Add the Ahentafel code and link to this Free-Space Project to each profile. #Source/Cite each profile with the data from Carol's book. #Create profiles for additional descendants not already in WikiTree.

It does involve many of the same research skills and techniques as family history, and most one-namers are actively researching both their own family and their one-name study. Usually people begin one name studies when they are stuck on part of their tree, and believe that if they were to collect all references they find to the surname then this will lead to a break-through. The one namer becomes an expert on his or her name, even if the name is part of apparently quite separate family groups. One name studies can be quite intensive, but they can be immensely rewarding, both in their ability to offer new insights into the surname and in being able to assist other genealogists around the world. One name researchers build up a unique understanding of their name and its significance both geographically and historically. As a recognized center of information on the name, they will also receive inquiries from, and exchange information with, WikiTree members who have an interest in the name. Over time, collaborators become the WikiTree experts on the name and make new friends.

It is an anglicized spelling form of the Gaelic "Mac Giolla Ruaidh", composed of the elements "Mac", meaning son of, "giolla", the youth, and "ruaidh", red haired; hence, "The son of the red haired youth". The sept originated in County Fermanagh, Ireland, where the placename Ballymackilroy is found: Their territory was on the east side of Lough Erne. There is another Ballymackilroy in County Tyrone and a further Ballymacilroy in County Antrim. Traditionally, Irish family names are taken from the heads of tribes, revered elders, or from some illustrious warrior, presumably the first of this clan had very prominent appearance, in addition to his youthfulness. The clan were of some status in Gaelic Ireland, particularly in the 15th Century, as their frequent mention in the Annals of the Four Masters and Loch Ce testifies. Rev. John McElroy, S.J. (1782 - 1877), was a native of County Fermanagh, where he was educated at a hedge school and was associated with the United Irishmen in 1798. He was famous in America as a missionary priest and church builder. Mary McElree was recorded in Maghera, County Derry, on June 5th 1845, and James McElrea at Cappagh by Omagh, County Tyrone on April 3rd 1855. On March 13th 1846, Mrs. Ellen McElroy, along with her children, John (19 yrs.), William (15 yrs.), Sally (14 yrs.), and Charles (12 yrs.), famine emigrants, departed from Liverpool aboard the "Ohio", bound for New York. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Michael M'Gilrey, which was dated 1376, in the "Ancient Charters of the Earldom of Morton", during the reign of King Robert 11 of Scotland, 1371 - 1390. Throughout the centuries surnames in every country have continued to "develop", often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

[[Category:McFatter Name Study]][[Category:One Name Studies]] ==About the Project== The McFatter/McPhatter surname, according to Dictionary of American Family Names, is a Scottish variant of McPheeters, from the Gaelic ''mac Gille Pheadair'', a patronymic from the personal name meaning "servant of St. Peter". In this page, I will default to the McFatter spelling when discussing the earlier McFatters, as members of this family can be found under variations such as McFater, McFadder, McFalter, McFather, etc. By the early 19th century, most had settled on spellings such as McFatter and McPhatter. According to the Clan McLaren Society, McFatter is a sept of the Clan Labhran, and it is true that all the earliest McFatter records seem to place this family in Argyll, in the Highlands of Scotland. From the book Surnames of Scotland, in the NY Public Library: "Gillipetair mac Donnchadh is a witness in the Book of Deer. Thomas Moir McGillifedder is in record in 1607 (RPC) and Duncan M'Fater appears in Deochaig, parish of Kilblaan, 1694 (Argyll Inv.)" The earliest McFatter immigrant to what would become the United States appears to be [[McFatter-70|Daniel McFater]], an indentured servant freed upon the death of his master in 1741 in New Hanover County, North Carolina. Indeed, almost all the early American McFatters lived in North Carolina during the period before and immediately after the US Revolutionary War, specifically in the counties of Robeson and Bladen. The branch that remained in North Carolina settled on the spelling '''McPhatter'''. It is difficult at present to determine exactly how these early McFatters/McPhatters were related to one another, as fathers and sons, brothers, uncles and nephews, or cousins. Hopefully DNA will shed some light on this subject. == How to Join == Contact the Project Leader [[Key-2986|Jessica]] to join! == Goals == This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about one surname and the variants of that name.

Amelia McFatter is listed in the 1833 Jamaica Almanac, resident in St. James, Cornwall, Jamaica. ---- NORTH CAROLINA: The aforementioned Daniel McFater is so far the earliest known immigrant to North Carolina, and he was resident in New Hanover co. NC in 1741. There are three people surnamed McFatter in the 1790 census, and they are all living in NC. [[McPhater-1|Simon]] may have died shortly after the American Revolutionary War, as he appears on no censuses and no pension application appears to exist for him. SOUTH CAROLINA: By the 1820 census, there is a single McFatter household in Horry co., SC, headed by [[McFatter-72|William McFatter]]. Another McFatter household appears in Chesterfield co. SC in 1820, but this appears to be [[McPhatter-36|Archibald]] who returned to Robeson co. NC and died there. GEORGIA: McPhatters appear in this state in the 1850 census, headed by [[McPhatter-31|Alexander]] (died after 1860) who is found living in Richmond county and who appears to be the father of a number of McFatters, including Archibald, John, Malcolm, and William J. Another family group appears in 1850 Randolph co. GA, headed by [[McFatter-58|Daniel]], who's given name is also sometimes David. Indeed, census takers had a very difficult time with Daniel/David's name, as his surname is spelled as McFatter, McFarlin, McFathy??, McFadder, and McFather. He was married to Caroline, who was born in Georgia, as were all of their children. He was alive and living in Randolph county at least as late as 1880. His descendants mostly seemed to have settled on the spelling '''McFather'''. LOUISIANA: [[McFatter-20|Alexander]] moved to West Feliciana parish in Louisiana by 1819, and at least two of his children were born there. He then moved to Mississippi, where he died in 1843. His son John Washington McFatter returned to Louisiana where he and his wife died in the 1860s. Their children are found in the 1870 census living in St. Landry parish in a household together; most of the Louisiana McFatters are descended from John Washington McFatter. TENNESSEE: Both Alexander and [[McFatter-27|Niven]] lived for a time in Tennessee after the War of 1812. Niven was living in Giles co. TN in the 1820 census, but he and Alexander had moved to Mississippi by 1825. [[McFatter-26|Isabella]] had also moved to Giles co. TN by 1820, but she and her children were going by the Maultsby surname at this time. MISSISSIPPI: All the McFatters in Carroll, Montgomery, Webster, and Attala counties appear to be children and grandchildren of Niven McFatter. Several of his descendants moved to Texas as well. The Claiborne co. MS McFatters are descended from [[McFatter-20|Alexander]] McFatter (died 1843). The MS branch all seem to spell their surname as '''McFatter'''. ALABAMA: A large family of McPhatters and what appear to be various other relatives appear in Mobile in the 1860 census, headed by [[McPhatter-31|Alexander]] of Robeson county and (his presumed) son Archibald, a preacher. This Alexander, a full generation younger than the Alexander who settled in Claiborne co. MS, appears to be the same man as the one found living in the 1850 census in Richmond co., GA. This family appears to have moved on as no McFatters or McPhatters appear in the 1870 census in Alabama. FLORIDA: The children of John McPhatter of Robeson co. NC seem to have migrated to Gadsden county, Florida between 1833-1850. The siblings were Archibald (married to Sarah), Christian (wife of Daniel Johnson), John, William, Margaret (widow of a man named Rider), Mary (wife of Duncan McPhaul), and Jane (wife of Henry Lamb). TEXAS: [[McFatter-54|William A.]] is almost certainly another son of Niven McFatter of the Carroll-Montgomery-Webster-Attala MS branch. He was married and living in Kosciusko, MS by 1846, and moved to Lamar co. TX by 1860. He died in 1899 and his widow Sinai lived with a grandson of [[McFatter-59|Margaret Caroline]], probably William's sister, until her own death. Sinai on the 1900 census states that she had 3 children, none living. Two sons of [[McFatter-51|Andrew J.]] (himself probably another brother of William A. and Margaret Caroline) likewise moved to Texas: John Niven McFatter served as Justice of the Peace in Ranger, TX for 22 years, and [[McFatter-5|Daniel Riley]] lived in Hemphill co. TX for many years before dying in Albuquerque, NM. KANSAS: [[McFatter-66|Onslow]] McFatter of North Carolina, a Civil War veteran, had moved to Wyandotte at least by 1868, when he married there. He died in 1925, but despite marrying twice, had no children. "STRAYS". Stray McFatters and McPhatters are people who do not clearly fit into any known genealogy of this family. In some cases, they may be members of families with names confused for McFatter (such as McFaddens, etc.), or children born out of wedlock or informally adopted, or perhaps known McFatters who are purposefully changing their names for some unknown reason. [[McFatter-65|John Leslie]] was born in the late 1870s in MS, but does not appear to fit into either the known Claiborne co. MS branch nor the Carroll-Montgomery-Webster-Attala MS branch. He spent his adult life in Virginia and New York. [[McFatter-37|Austin]] appears in the 1860 census in Jackson co. FL, living with a family of Pittmans. His birth place is given there as Alabama, but otherwise in later records is Florida. He could be the younger son of [[McPhatter-33|Archibald]] and Sarah found in the Gadsden co. FL 1850 census, but that child is named ''Christopher''. There is a remote possibility that he is a son of the preacher [[McPhatter-29|Archibald]] who was living in Mobile, AL in 1860. UPDATE: Austin has been found on the 1850 census in Henry co. AL, living with his mother Nancy "McFarler". This mystery is far from solved. [[McPhatter-40|William McPhatter]], born about 1820 in NC, was found living in the household of Green and Frances Arnold in 1850 Gadsden co. FL. Like all the other McPhatters living in that area, he would seem to be a relative of John McPhatter of Robeson co. NC. Curiously, ten years later in 1860, Green and Frances Arnold have ''another'' young McPhatter living with them, this one a 16-year-old named Arch. This Arch is also a stray, unless he is the elder son of [[McPhatter-33|Archibald]] and Sarah found in the Gadsden co. FL 1850 census (but that child is named John in 1850). [[McPhatter-73|Artemus]] was born in NC but living out west by the 1870s. His wife Louisa divorced him in Utah and in 1875-6, he's living in Sacramento. Despite his unusual first name, so sign of him has been found in the censuses. ---- '''DNA''' Two male-line descendants of [[McFatter-20|Alexander McFatter]] (one a descendant via his son John Washington, the other via the other son William Alexander) have had their YDNA tested and both have YDNA haplogroup R1b (further refined to R1b1a1a2). [[Category: Y-DNA Haplogroup R-M269]] ==Related Surnames and Surname Variants== McFatter, McPhatter, McFather, McFater, MacFater, McFalter.

[[Category:McFeaters Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] ==About the Project== The goal of this project is to unite those who are interested in discovering the roots of the Pennsylvania McFeaters line with the hope that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Some alternate spelling of the last name will include: MCPHEETERS, MCPETERS, MCPHETERS, MCFEETERS, MCFETERS, MCPHETRES, MCFEAT, MCFETTERS, and MCPETERS. Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and could use your help. * I have hit a dead-end with [[McFeaters-2]]. It is hypothesized that his father was John McFeeters (McFeters/McPheeters) who died 7 SEP 1762 in Chester, Pennsylvania and who was married to a Jean/Jane Scott, possibly born in 1736, Chester County, Pennsylvania may be the parents of McFeaters-2. Any evidence to support this would be greatly appreciated. ==Hypothesis== There seems to be a very strong possibility that the McFeaters line in Western Pennsylvania is indeed part of the orginal McPheeters who came to the colonies in 1726-1730. More information to follow. ''For the past six years, I have been gathering information to update a family history of the McPheetrs family. For all of thi stime I have been aware of the McFeaters family of Western Pennsylvania and wondered if there was some connection--especially since there are many variations in the early spelling of both names and since the McPheeters are reported to have originally come to the Pennsylvania Colony from Londonberry, Ireland and settled around 1726-1730. From there they moved down The Great Valley Road of the Shenandoah Valley into Virginia and North Carolina. ''During the past year after a visit to the Indiana County Historical County in Indiana, Pennsylvania and contacts with decendants of the four of the original McFeaters settlers in that area, together with the information from US Census records and Military Pension records, a much clearer picture of the McFeaters family has emerged. However, there are still many details to be explained and confirmed or modified.'''' As given to [[Evans-19656]] by: Dr. Harold McPheeters, MD; Atlanta, Georgia on July 31, 1987 == Research Notes == Work-in-Progress, more information coming soon, bjmcf 28 Apr 2024 There are several key sources which may help in proving that John McFeaters, 1710-1762 is the father of James McFeaters which are noted below: John initially lived in Edgmont Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania and on the Chester County Tax Rolls his name has various spelling: McFeeters, McFeatters, McFeaters. It is thought that John McFeters had two known children. James (1752-1828) and Andrew McPheeters (1761-1850) It is noted that John had a first wife, Mary Stewart/Stuart, 1714-1758). If so, James McFeeters (1752-1828) was Mary's son as he married Jane Scott until 1758. or.... John married Jane Scott (1737-1820) , daughter of Andrew (1713-1784) and Catherine (1717-?) Scott, 21 Apr 1758, Wilmington, New Castle, Delaware. Therefore, Andrew Scott was her child as he was born in 1761. Jane McFeters, Administratrix, 07 Sep 1762 in John McFeters will, West Marlborough, Chester County, Pennsylvania with Samuel Scott. Question? Who is Samuel Scott? Son, Samuel Scott McFeaters? Or, relation to Jane (sometimes Jean)? Cousin? Brother? Uncle? Andrew Scott, Janes fathers' will dated 06 Spr 1776, proven 25 Feb 1784 provided for Jane McPhetrick (variation) Note: Andrew McPheeters was a Revolutionary War soilder first serving as a substitute for Isaiah Scott in January 1776, Chester County, Pennsylvania. Jane had a brother, Isaiah Scott born in 1737. Does this support a connection that Andrew McPheeters was John and Jane McFeters son? Andrew had a son named Andrew Scott McPheeters--is this a tribute to the mother's maiden name? ==Research Pages== The first immigrants of record to the American Colonies came from Northern Ireland to the Pennsylvania Colony (five -- William, Alexander, Charles, John and James --to the Scots-Irish Settlement in Chester and Lancaster Counties, and two -- Archibald and John-- to the Massachusetts Bay Colny (Maine) between 1710 and 1730. Three of those young families -- William, Alexander and Charles -- moved south to Orange/Augusta County, Virginia, by 1740. Charles then moved on to western North Carolina by 1750 and later changed the spelling of his name to McPeters at the time of the Revolutionary War. Other families of McFeeters immigrated mainly to Pennsylvania between 1800 and 1850, but one such family went first to Canada and then to Vermont, while still another went to South Carolina and later became McPeters in Alabama. There are also African-American and Mulatto McPheeters and McPeters families who are related to the McPheeters and McPeters families who owned slaves. An interesting link for those who are interested in the history/origins of the McPheeters: https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/mc-pheeters/about The last paragraph states: A prominent Presbyterian clergyman, Rev. William McPheeters of Raleigh, North Carolina, wrote in his genealogy -- Some Account of My Paternal and Maternal Ancestors -- in 1842 that the origin of the McPheeters name was with a William, the son of a Peter Hume of the Highlands of Scotland, who was dissatisfied with the treatment given him by his half-siblings of his father's first marriage and decided to call himself William McPeter (i.e., son of Peter). A recent comparison of the DNA patterns of the McPheeters and Hume descendants shows that this legend is 'NOT true. Nor is the McPheeers DNA pattern a close match to those of some Scottish clans that claim us. ==Suggested Resources== Family Tree DNA: McPheeters https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/mc-pheeters/about The McPheeters Family By Helen McPheeters Rice 1956 https://electricscotland.com/webclans/m/macpheeter2.html Upon the Shoulders of Giants, Vol. I by Vernon Arthur Zeitler, 1986 https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/viewer/595949/?offset=2#page=1&viewer=picture&o=info&n=0&q= Upon the Shoulders of Giants, Vol II by Vernon Arthur Zeitler, 1993 https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/595981-upon-the-shoulders-of-giants-vol-2 ==Related Surnames and Variants== McFeaters McFeeters McFeters McFetters McPheeters McPheaters McPheadris McPhedris McPhedres McPeters ==Membership== Right now this project just has one member, me.

There is no formal "joining" process. If you have any questions, just ask! Please contact the study's coordinator [[McClintock-744|Alison McClintock]] or post a comment at the foot of the page. Thanks! ==About this study== The purpose of this study is to work together on Wikitree to break brick walls and gather useful information on the McGeever surname. We'll do that by collecting sourced information and resources pertaining to the McGeever surname throughout the world and sharing it here in one place (on Wikitree). == Goals == The main goal is to add as many sourced McGeever profiles to Wikitree as we can find, and then, hopefully, connect them all eventually (based on sourced info). You can contribute by doing any of the following: #Take a DNA test and add the results to your profile. Your results will also appear on [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:DNATests&s=MCGEEVER McGeever DNA Connections]. #[[Help:How_to_Edit_a_Profile|Profile Improvement]] ##Ensure each profile is [[Space:Genealogically_Defined|Genealogically Defined]]. ##Add sources! ##*Add in-line sources for each fact, avoiding references to unsourced online trees. ##*Add new information with in-line sources; review vital information in profiles and substantiate same; and review and confirm existing source citations. ## Connect any unconnected family member (i.e. ones with unknown parents) to one of the older McGeever lineages. ##Add Categories where appropriate. #Write or expand biographies, using in-line sources and adding explanatory remarks, if needed (i.e. Research Notes, disputed persons sections). # Discover the relationship between the oldest McGeever individuals within the United States and any immigration to the United States. # Help add to a list of useful sources # Add to the list of McGeever notables === Adding a Profile to this Study === Please avoid adding every McGeever / McGeaver profile to this Study. See '''List of McGeever Profiles''' below to get a sorted list of every McGeever profile on WikiTree. The criteria for adding a McGeever profile to the study are: # Add a McGeever profile to this study if their McGeever ancestor is currently unknown (or uncertain). # Add a McGeever profile to this study if they are adopted. To add your ancestor to this study, simply copy the following template to the Biography section of his or her profile: ::

{{One Name Study|name=McGeever|category=McGeever Name Study}}

Once the profile is connected to the main McGeever family line, then remove the template from the profile. Keep the template if the McGeever parentage is marked as uncertain. === Process === # Take existing McGeever profiles on WikiTree and use records found on FamilySearch.org and elsewhere to reconstruct the pedigree as much as possible. # Find other McGeevers on FamilySearch.org etc, add them to WikiTree, reconstruct pedigree or find where they fit in existing families # Find any historical newspaper references to any McGeevers # Find any histories of the McGeever family, whether books, previous personal research, or other written materials. Use these to compare against primary records. *Note: Please make sure to provide sources for all information. Please do not base profiles entirely on derivative sources, such as online family trees that aren't sourced. If the tree you are referencing is sourced, please provide those sources on the profile. Otherwise, please do not simply copy over information from online trees and risk repeating their mistakes.

[[Category:McGrew Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]]

Welcome to the McGrew Name Study!

This is a project that I hope will become a valuable reference point for any McGrew researchers alike to share their knowledge by posting their DNA tests, resources, pictures, stories, and anything else of interest to this surname. For a complete list of McGrew profiles on WikiTree, see the [http://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Surname&s=MCGREW&order=name McGrew Index Page]. Please join by contacting the project leader, [[Andrus-373|Alison Andrus]]. See the sections on our goals and what you can do below. Post questions and comments to and add details about your particular area of interest. === Our Goals === Although DNA analysis can assist in determining that two or more participants who have tested their yDNA descend from a common male ancestor, it will not identify the specific ancestor without the use of accurate record documentation used in genealogical research. There is a McGrew DNA Project hosted by Family Tree DNA. We can help the effort by creating the best McGrew tree possible. The purpose of this study is to work together to establish an accurate McGrew Family tree by using the best possible sources available for documentation. === What You Can Do === #Add the ''McGrew'' tag to the list of tags you are following. #Work cooperatively together with other McGrew profile managers to create the best McGrew tree possible. #Add the One Name Studies template and category for McGrew Name Study to any McGrew profiles you manage. #Search out original rather than derivative documentation and add sources to McGrew profiles. #Write comprehensive, well-sourced biographies. #Check for duplicates and request merges. #Contact [[Andrus-373|Alison]] to request PPP status for those profiles that meet the criteria for project protection. This will protect them from an incorrect merge. #If you are a male with the McGrew surname and haven't already, please consider testing your yDNA through the McGrew Family Tree DNA Project so that we can all have a better understanding of our heritage and possibly make new discoveries. #Do you have an McGrew profile you are especially proud of? Let [[Andrus-373|Alison]] know and we will feature it on this page. === Origins === Most descendants of the McGrew family will agree that the McGrew family is Scots-Irish in ethnicity, however, there have been many theories as to where the McGrew family originated. The most common theory amongst descendants is that the McGrew family came from '''Clan MacGregor,''' however, yDNA comparisons made between the McGrew family and a typical set of McGregor DNA results found on their website have been examined and results suggest that there is no genetic relationship between McGregors and McGrews. Also over 1,000 DNA results from a Scottish Clans DNA database have been examined and no consistent matches have been found between our results and results within any clan. Some clans of interest (Fraser, Buchanan and Drummond) have very few published samples, and results from these clans will continue to be evaluated for matches. Please see the [https://www.familytreedna.com/public/mcgrew/default.aspx?section=results DNA Results page] at FamilyTree DNA for more information. '''Oral History''' James C. McGrew, born in Pennsylvania, in 1761 (later lived in Kingwood, VA) was one of the first known McGrew historians, and he wrote 'There is no doubt that the McGrews who migrated from Ireland to America were native Scots or descendants of Scotch immigrants who left Scotland to avoid religious persecution. (this was found in 'History of the McGrew family' prepared for a McGrew reunion that was held at Olympia Park near McKeesport, PA on August 15, 1912). James C. McGrew also stated that his grandfather (Robert McGrew) came to America from Omagh, County Tyrone, Ireland wearing a blue scotch bonnet. According to the Coat of Arms & Family Crests Store, [http://www.4crests.com/mcgrew-coat-of-arms.html McGREW], now shortened to Grewer and Grewar is found principally in the south of Perthshire, about Glenartney, and it was common in Dunblane and Doune in the 17th and 18th centuries. The family of the North as a sept are merged mostly in the Frasers and adjoining clans. Other spellings of the name include MacGRUER, MacGROUGHTER, MacGROWTHER, MacCRITER and McHRUDDER. The earliest recorded of the name is Gilawnane McCrouder, who was witness to a charter in 1447, and Gilbert McGrevar was a tenant of Dowart, Stragarta in 1499. The use of fixed surnames or descriptive names appears to have commenced in France about the year 1000, and such names were introduced into Scotland through the Normans a little over one hundred years later, although the custom of using them was by no means common for many years afterwards. During the reign of Malcolm Ceannmor (1057-1093) the latter directed his chief subjects, after the custom of other nations, to adopt surnames from their territorial possessions, and there created 'The first erlis that euir was in Scotland'. Duncan M'Rudder was a witness in Perth in 1547, and Alexander M'Gruder held the parsonage of Lochals in 1550. John McGrader (arrow-maker) in Blainrowar was fined in 1613 for reset (receiver or concealer of stolen goods) of Clan Gregor. === DNA Project === There is a McGrew DNA Project registered at FamilyTree DNA. Please see the [https://www.familytreedna.com/public/mcgrew/default.aspx?section=yresults chart] for test results and analysis. For further explanation of the analysis, please see the project administrator, John McGrew's article [http://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/mcgrew/2019/ ''What The McGrew Family Has Learned From DNA Analysis'']. === Early Immigration to America === According to John McGrew's article, The main DNA branches have been isolated into descendants of the following groups: *[[McGrew-35|Robert McGrew]], b. abt. 1675, along with his wife, Isabel, five sons and two grandchildren came to America in 1726 from Omagh, County Tyrone, Ireland. It is probable that this family came first to New Castle, Delaware, and then to Chester County, Pennsylvania. Chester County at that time comprised a great area in Southeastern Pennsylvania. As western lands were opened up, through Blunston licenses, Robert and his sons moved westward, crossing the Susquehanna River, into what was Lancaster County after 1729, York County after 1749, and Adams County after 1800. *James A. McGrew (m. Jane Lapsley) arrived at Charleston SC in 1773 with his wife and 3 sons. He is known to have come from Co. Tyrone and DNA analysis shows he shares a common ancestor with Robert McGrew, probably several generations further back. *Patrick McGrew’s father (probably John or James) came to central PA about 1774. After his father’s death Patrick and his family moved to Preston Co WV. His father was said to be a Scotsman. DNA shows that Patrick's line was genetically similar to Robert's but still distinct. He may share a common ancestor with Robert and Thomas 1000-1500 years further back. *Thomas McGrew (m. first Margaret Curry) either came to the Colonies from Co. Tyrone about 1755 (according to a letter written by his grandson) with his wife or was born in Chester Co PA in 1732 (according to words written by Thomas when he was an old man and said to be losing his memory). Thomas and his descendants moved from western SC to TN and KY. DNA from his line shows that Thomas and Robert's lines were similar but genetically distinct. He may share a common ancestor with Robert and Patrick 1000-1500 years further back. Summary: Robert, Thomas, and Patrick’s lines are called the Northwest Irish type or more specifically R-M222. Approximately 10% of males in NW Ireland are of this type today. It is also found in a smaller number in SW lowland Scotland. Originally these lines were Irish. Their ancestor(s) probably migrated from N. Ireland to Scotland between 500-1000 AD as part of the kingdom of Dal Riata. These lines are culturally Scots but genetically Irish. Robert, Thomas, and probably Patrick’s immediate ancestors were Ulster Scots or Scots-Irish who immigrated to Ulster in Northern Ireland from Scotland in the early 1600’s.Like many of their contemporaries they then immigrated to the Colonies in the 1700’s. *Alexander McGrew (possibly MacGruar, m. Margaret Tate) who is known to have been in South Carolina in 1752.He may have arrived at Savannah Georgia about 1737 from Scotland. He may have been born in Boleskineshire, Inverness, Scotland in 1707. Many of his sons lived in the Tombigbee area of Alabama in the early 1800’s. DNA from his line shows that Alexander does not share a common ancestor with any of the other lines. Summary: DNA analysis of Alexander’s line showed it to be Scots and, it fact, very old Scots. The origin of this line is with the Pretani (Britani) who predated the Picts in Scotland. The specific name for this genetic line is R-L21. *Andrew McGrew (later Megrue, m. Hannah Rust) was born in Baltimore in 1760.His ancestry is unknown, but many thought he might be the son of a brother or cousin of one of the McGrews who came to the Colonies in the 1750’s.He and his family moved to central Ohio about 1806 when he changed his name to Megrue. DNA from his line shows that Andrew does not share a common ancestor with any of the other lines. Summary: This line appears to be Norse. Its ancestors were Vikings. This line is probably Norman since when William the Conqueror ruled England he gave land in Scotland to some of his barons to ensure their loyalty. Several Scots Clans are known to be mixed Norman-Scots. The specific genetic name for this line is not known. === McGrew Descendants on WikiTree === Please add your info to the table below or contact [[Andrus-373|Alison]] to add it. {| border="1" class="wikitable sortable" |- ! align="center" style="background:#FA5858;"|'''Researcher Name''' ! align="center" style="background:#FA5858;"|'''Oldest McGrew Ancestor''' ! align="center" style="background:#FA5858;"|'''Haplogroup''' ! align="center" style="background:#FA5858;"|'''GEDMatch ID''' ! align="center" style="background:#FA5858;"|'''Ancestry Test ID''' ! align="center" style="background:#FA5858;"|'''FTDNA Kit#''' ! align="center" style="background:#FA5858;"|'''Ysearch ID''' |- |- | [[Andrus-373 | Alison Andrus ]] || [[McGrew-35|Robert McGrew]] || R-M269 || A978292 || ALi1202 || 357520 || 4P5UJ || |- | [[McGrew-132 | Allen McGrew ]] || [[McGrew-35|Robert McGrew]] || || ||AlMcGrew || || || |- | [[Smeltzer-74 | John Smeltzer]] || [[McGrew-35|Robert McGrew]] || I1-Z140 || A903922 || JohnFSmeltzer ||56528 || || |- |} === McGrew Family Notables === :James McGrew (1813-1910), American politician, merchant, banker and hospital director :John McGrew (circa 1910-1999), American animator, painter and musician :Lance McGrew, American NASCAR crew chief :Larry McGrew (1957-2004), retired American football linebacker :Reggie McGrew (born 1976), American football defensive tackle :Sam McGrew (born 1984), former American football linebacker === Resources === *The McGrew Family on [http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gsr&GSfn=&GSmn=&GSln=McGrew&GSby=&GSbyrel=in&GSdy=&GSdyrel=in&GScntry=0&GSst=0&GSob=n Find A Grave] *The McGrew Family on [http://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/mcgrew/ Genealogy.com]

Examples: A. In “Psycho” Hitchcock's gimmicky device, termed a MacGuffin (the thing or device that motivates the characters, or propels the plot and action), is the stolen $40,000 from the realtor's office. Marion Crane becomes a secondary MacGuffin after her murder. B. The Pink panther C. The Maltese Falcon D. The 39 Steps, the MacGuffin is the plan for an advanced airplane engine; E. In The Lady Vanishes, the MacGuffin is a coded message contained in a piece of music. F. A MacGuffin can be a secret instigator for the characters, but the audience does not necessarily need to care about it. In his film North by Northwest, spies chase an ad executive who they believe is harboring secret government documents. It is never revealed to the ad exec (played by Carey Grant) or to the audience what the secret documents are. G. The 39 Steps, the MacGuffin is the plan for an advanced airplane engine; in The Lady Vanishes, his 1938 mystery thriller, the MacGuffin is a coded message contained in a piece of music. H. A MacGuffin can be a secret instigator for the characters, but the audience does not necessarily need to care about it. In his film North by Northwest, spies chase an ad executive who they believe is harboring secret government documents.

My brickwall ancestor [[Merritt-1191|Jonathan Merritt]] was another inspiration for the study. Right now, my research is focused in the Southeastern United States, but I hope to later expand it to the whole US and other countries. My goal is to determine how all the Merritt families are connected, and discover the origins of my Merritt line. I started my research with the assumption that the surname Merritt was not that common because I didn't know many people with the same surname other than family. So far, I have found it is a lot more common than I thought!!

If you have any questions, just ask. Thanks! == Goals == Wiki invited me to start a Mertz Name Study page so I did. Then I had no idea how to find it (until I sort of stumbled on it again) so I don't know if this will help anyone. Here's the thing. I've identified six different people name Mertz who came to America in 1732-1749 or so and settled in Eastern Pennsylvania. They each had many sons who had many sons, etc. And then the next generation and subsequent generations began to spread out across America. When people moved, often their name came to be spelled Martz. And then we can add two other early immigrants to America whose name from their arrival was spelled Martz. They settled in or near Frederick, Maryland and Rockingham County, Virginia. So count 'em -- 8 separate immigrants. Now of these eight, there were two or possibly three sets of brothers. So we're down to what we might think of as 5 or 6 totally separate lineages -- and DNA studies prove that those 5 or 6 lines are truly separate, no relation among them whatsoever. I have spent 20 years getting to know all these 8 lines. I have collected enough research-backed data to be able to show the linkage of almost anyone name Mertz or Martz (or Marts occasionally) in the 1880 (or earlier) Census and know from which immigrant they descend or whether they are someone who came later to America. So I see this Name Study page as a place to talk about geographic clusters of people of this name and properly tie them back to their immigrant. == Task List ==

[[Category:Meurer Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] This is a ''One Name Study'' to collect together in one place everything about the surname [http://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/meurer '''Meurer'''] and its variants. ==History== The surname Meurer and Maurer are names derived from an occupation – in this case, a tradesman. The names are derived from the Middle High German word ''miurer'', which translates as one who builds with stone; that is, a stone mason. Another derivation of the name '''Meurer''' appears to be derived from the german word ''mauer'', meaning wall. The earliest record of this surname and its variants dates back to the thirteenth century. * 1271, a Hainrich Murer was residing in Verengen. * 1307, a Wernher der (the) Miurer was living in Mengen * 1312, a Cuonrad der Murer was a judge from Herrenberg. * 1563, a Barbara Meurer married Brosius Herman in Schwarzbach, Chemnitz. * 1606 (27th September), an Adolph Meurer was christened the son of Henrich and Margaretha Meurer this took place in the Catholic Church of St. Lambert, Duesseldorf. == Joined Genealogist == https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Spencer-12751 ==Study Objectives== The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Please contact the [[Meurer-26|''project leader'']], add the category ''Category:Meurer Name Study'' (in double square brackets within your text area) to your '''Meurer''' profiles, add your questions to the bulletin board, add details of your name research, etc. It is intended that persons who were born with the surname '''Meurer''' or spelling variants, should be included in this one name study. What can this name study achieve? This page is easily found by a simple web search on the name '''Meurer'''. Hopefully that will encourage people who have a connection with the name '''Meurer''' to add more '''Meurer''' individuals to Wikitree. As more people add family members, it is inevitable that new connections will occur to existing families in Wikitree. The result over time would be a large connected tree, where a picture will emerge of the family origins and how and when the '''Meurers''' spread across the world. *Many Maurer Families immigrated to America from[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koblenz] Koblenz (Coblenz was the spelling before 1926).

The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. The start point is descent from Thomas Mewboorn, c1688-1749, of Bertie County, North Carolina. The name is commonly spelt Mewborn and in some lines an 'N' was adopted giving Newborn or, more commonly, Newbern (and various other variants such as Mewbourn or Mewbourne and N equivalents). Currently there is a fairly fully defined descent from Thomas covering the next five generations after him. It is focussed on the male line but includes welcome contributions of offspring from a number of the females. The male line may not be complete and there may be elements that can be improved - all suggestions are welcome. It seems likely that Newborn and Newbern were also names held by or adopted by immigrants who arrived later than the early Mewborn spread, so DNA studies will be needed to determine relationships and origins for all of todays name holders. Several of the early Mewborns were also slave owners and today there are a good number of black name holders. This study may be helpful in establishing aspects of origins. Profiles for all name holders are important to the study. == Tree == A tree covering the first seven generations from Thomas Mewboorn is already hosted by the Guild of One-Name Studies at http://mewborn.one-name.net. That tree is heavily dependent on sources so if you have an interest in this name you may wish to take a look at it (especially before editing entries on Wikitree). == Publication == A history of the early Mewborn descent, covering the first seven generations, has been published, with 56 family trees, in ''The Journal of Genealogy and Family History'', Vol.4 Supplement (2020).

[[Category:Milligan Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about one surname and the variants of that name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Please contact the project leader, add categories to your profiles, add your questions to the bulletin board, add details of your name research, etc. ==Origin of the Milligan Surname== Recorded in the spellings of O'Milligan, Miligan, Milliken, Milikin, Mulligan, Mullikin, Millican and possibly other forms, this interesting surname of Irish origin is an anglicized form of the pre 10th century Gaelic O Maolagain, although also widely recorded in Scotland. The name translates as the "descendant of Maolagan", a personal name from a double diminutive of "mael" and meaning "bald". As such it is probably an affectionate nickname for a monk or disciple, somebody who shaved their head as a sign of devotion. In the 20th century the surname is found mainly in Ulster, and to some extent in County Sligo. It is one of the most ancient of Irish surnames with recordings dating back to the mid 13th Century, (see below). Other examples of the recordings include Thomas Ameligane in 1477, and Thomas Amuligane in 1485, both recorded in the book known as Black's "Surnames of Scotland". Other examples include Andrew Milligan, who married Sarah Planere on May 25th 1697, at St. Paul's church, Covent Garden, Westminster, and Richard Alfred Milliken (1767-1815), a Cork attorney, who is also remembered as the author of "The Groves of Blarney". Alice Milligan who ied in 1953, who was born at Omagh, was a poetess of distinction and a well known figure in the Irish literary movement. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Molior Omolegane, which was dated 1264, in Dublin. This was during the reign of King Henry 111of England, known as "The Frenchman", 1216 - 1272. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling. © Copyright: Name Origin Research 1980 - 2017 Read more: http://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/Milligan

He was an orphan but did have children, names unknown. The wikipedia page states "William M. Mitchell (c. 1826 – c. 1879) was an American writer, minister and abolitionist who worked on the Underground Railroad. He is said to be the only writer who wrote about the railroad while it was still illegal." Wikipedia highlights his "Early life and career". and includes a link to a free download of his book "The Underground Railroad, Mitchell 1860" which is well written and amazing. his wikitree profile is Mitchell-33264. [[Mitchell-33264|William M. Mitchell (abt.1826-bef.1879)]] ==DNA== [[Help:DNA Tests|DNA testing]] is very valuable for surname projects — [[Help:Y-Chromosome DNA Tests|Y-chromosome tests]] in particular. By themselves, Y-chromosome test results do not have particular meaning. You need to be able to compare the tests with others. A surname project gives you that opportunity. Create a table with your family's yDNA results and encourage other members to do the same so that comparisons can be made. You can find others with your surname who have taken DNA tests by going to your surname index page and selecting "DNA Connections." This will take you to a page like this: [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:DNATests&s=Mitchell] https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:DNATests&s=Mitchell]. YDNA test-takers are the most valuable, but anyone who has taken an [[Help:Autosomal DNA Tests|autosomal test]] knows the value of DNA for genealogy and may be able to find a male member of their family who could be tested. Y-DNA testers can upload their results to mitoYDNA.org. Adding a mitoYDNA ID automatically associates that Y haplotype with their direct paternal line in WikiTree and allows for haplotype comparisons and matching. mitoYDNA users should enter the url for the earliest known direct paternal line ancestor (EKA) as https://www.wikitree.com/treewidget/Roberts-7104/890 (simply change “Roberts-7104” to the Y-DNA tester’s direct paternal line EKA). Genetic genealogy is not easy. Others in the WikiTree community are willing to help. Ask a question in G2G using the tag {{Tag Link|DNA}}. ==Communication and requests for help== Received this today 22 Mar 2020: I am also descended from a John Mitchell, Revolutionary War Vet b. 1757 in Warwick, Orange Co, NY. And then from John Jr, b 1808 T of Catharine, Schuyler Co, NY. Recently obtained info from Orange Co Genealogical Society that traces John Mitchell's father to James Mitchell b abt 1732, William Mitchell b about 1708 (about 21 when he was aboard the George & Anne ship 1729), Alexander Mitchell b about 1685 (died on the George & Anne). Prior to that, un-named Mitchel ancestors came from Corboy, County Longford, Province of Leinster, Ireland and before that Ayrshire (?) Scotland. Am trying to find William Ray Mitchell II who wrote the 2016 book on Mitchell/Edsall genealogy that OCGS cited. It has a Library of Congress card number 2016911566 but no address or contact info (?self published book). Also looking to tie in to any other Mitchell resources to explore my ancestry. Thank you!

[[Category:Moberg Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about one surname and the variants of that name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Please contact the project leader, add categories to your profiles, add your questions to the bulletin board, add details of your name research, etc.

[[Category:Mock Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] == Intro to the Study == Requires auDNA and if possible yDNA and mtDNA at the hightest marker levels you can provide. This is a One Name Study to collect for any Mock who lived in Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Iowa or Missouri. Whether they stayed in this region or passed on through we want to know more about those lineages for surname Mock and its variants. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Please contact the project leader, add categories to your profiles, add your questions to the bulletin board, add details of your name research, etc. == Origins & Distribution == Most of the Mock families can be traced back to Germany or Switzerland. Many Germans with this name immigrated to the United States. Germany and the United States currently are the two countries with the most Mocks. [http://forebears.co.uk/surnames/mock Here is a map] showing the worldwide geographic distribution of people named Mock as of 2014. == Birthplaces of people with the surname Mock == Here is the distribution of Mocks by birthplace. This will make it easier to find out who was in the same place at the same time, and to see if any of the Mocks on WikiTree can be connected. It is also useful for focusing on a specific region.

[[Category:Moggach Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] == About the project == The Moggach Name Study project serves as a collaborative platform to collect information on the [https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Moggach Moggach] surname. The majority of people born with the surname Moggach originate from Scotland, but the surname is occasionally found in England, Wales, and as a result of emigration, in North America, Australia and New Zealand. The study is in its early stages, but you can see a '''[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Moggach_Name_Study list of people who are currently included in the Moggach Name Study].''' The project encourages other researchers to [[#How to Join|join the study]] and help make it a valuable reference point for other genealogists who are researching, or have an interest in, the Moggach surname. As a One-Name Study, this project is not limited to persons who are related biologically. Individual [[#Teams|team studies]] could be used to branch out and research specific methods and areas of interest, such as: * Geography (eg. people named Moggach born or living in Scotland); * Time period (eg. people named Moggach living during the 18th Century), or * Topic (eg. DNA studies for people with the surname Moggach). One-name studies may also include a number of family branches which have no immediate link with each other. Some researchers may even be motivated to go beyond the profile identification and research stage to compile fully sourced single-family histories of some of the families they discover through this name study project. See also the [[#Related Surnames and Surname Variants|related surnames and surname variants]]. == Estimated study size == Having searched various on-line databases, [[Dobie-250|the study coordinator's]] preliminary estimate was that there were 549 records for people born with the surname Moggach, or its variants. This figure is likely to be an underestimate of all the people born with the surname, as no records for births in the USA, Australia or New Zealand appeared in the searches undertaken. Even in Scotland, people who are recorded on other vital and census records may not have a corresponding birth record, if they were born before the introduction of civil registration of births in 1855. The estimated figure excludes people named Moggach by marriage, adoption, etc. The majority (88%) of births recorded under the name Moggach found in the preliminary research were in Scotland. The earliest birth record found is for John Moggach, baptised in the parish of Aberlour in 1730. For various reasons, estimating the number of births from census or death records would be difficult and prone to double-counting. An initial review of other datasets suggests that there are relatively few Moggachs born outside the UK. While a One Name Study is worldwide, these people, once identified, are unlikely to make a dramatic change to the overall size of the study. == How to Join == To join the Moggach Name Study, please add your name to the membership list below, post an introduction comment on the specific team/research page, and then begin. If a team or research page does not yet exist for your particular area of interest, please contact the Name Study Coordinator, [[Dobie-250|David Dobie]], for assistance. Even if you do not wish to join the study, please consider adding the Moggach One Name Study tag to WikiTree profiles of people who are born with, or inherit, the Moggach surname, or its variants. WikiTree users can automatically add a profile to this study, by placing this tag: {{One Name Study|name=Moggach}} diectly below the == Biography == heading in the profile. == Research Pages == There are currently no additional research pages associated with this name study. == Membership == This study is registered with the [https://one-name.org Guild of One-Name Studies] (member #8221). At present, [[Dobie-250|David Dobie]] is the only person conducting the study and he also acts as the Name Study Coordinator. David is a descendant of [[Moggach-26|George Mouggach or Moggach (abt.1770-bef.1841)]], who was recorded in the parish of Botriphnie in Banffshire, Scotland, in the 1790s. David's last ancestor with that surname was his maternal grandmother, [[Moggach-3|Mary McCombie Moggach (1902-1998)]]. David's hypothesis is that he is likely to be related by blood — or at least marriage or familial relationship — to most other people who inherited the Moggach surname, even if the record trail to common ancestors cannot be found, or shared DNA can no longer be detected. Please contact [[Dobie-250|David]], or leave a message on this page, if you would like more information about the study. == Related Surnames and Surname Variants == The following surnames are included in this study: * Moggach * Mouggach * Muggach * Muggoch

[[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category: Moran Name Study]] __NOTOC__ This is a project that we hope will become a valuable reference point for any Moran researchers alike to share their knowledge by posting their DNA tests, resources, pictures, stories, and anything else of interest to this surname. Please join by contacting the project leader, [[Zalewski-1|Brian Zalewski]]. See the section on goals and what you can do below. Post questions and comments to the bulletin board and add details about your particular area of interest. == Etymology == The '''Moran''' surname is Irish: Moran is the anglicisation of a number of distinct Irish names. O Morain, from a diminutive of mor, meaning "big", (which makes the name, roughly translated, "Little Big Man") arose in Co. Mayo, near the modern town of Ballina, where the eponymous ancestor Morain held power. Another family with the same name, part of the Muintir Eolais, were based in Co. Leitrim. O Mughrain - the origins of the name remain unclear - was also the name of two distinct Connacht families. One was a minor branch of the Ui Maine tribal grouping, based around Criffon in Co. Galway. The other were related to the O'Connors of Connacht and based near the modern village of Elphin in north Roscommon. O Murchain, from murchadha, meaning "sea-warrior", is now generally anglicised Moran, though it has also been rendered as Morahan and Morrin. The family were originally of east Offaly, near the border with Co. Kildare.[https://www.johngrenham.com/surnamescode/surnamehistory.php?surname=Moran&search_type=full Moran Surname History] accessed 5 Feb 2024 == Goals == This surname study is still very new. The main goal would be to try to at least connect some of these lines back to the Ireland area where the Moran name seems to originate in most cases, though there is historical evidence of it appearing in France and Spain. The purpose of this study is to bring together any Moran descendants who are willing to work together to establish an accurate Moran Family tree by using the best possible sources available for documentation to make new connections. == Participation == There is no obligatory time commitment or work responsibility required. Contribute as you like, when you can. Researching and refining the documentation of your own Moran ancestry is obviously of enormous value. To keep abreast of WikiTree communications dealing with the Study, [[Special:Following|add the G2G tag]] "''Moran''". To view individual WikiTree profiles currently associated with the effort, please visit the [[:Category:Moran_Name_Study|Study's WikiTree Category page]]. === Category Code === To get started as a Study participant, all you need to do is add the Study's WikiTree Category Code to the profiles of people you manage who were born with the surname or any of its variant spellings: '''[[Category:Moran Name Study]]''' Just copy and paste that line immediately ''above'' the "== Biography ==" line of the relevant profiles that you manage. Simple and easy. This adds the profile automatically to the [[:Category:Moran_Name_Study|page that maintains a list of all associated profiles]]. If you don't wish to have the ONS sticker displayed near the top of the biography section of a profile, using only this Category code will include the profile in the Study in an unobtrusive way. === Profile Stickers === Optionally, there are two WikiTree "stickers" you can use to highlight your Moran profiles. ==== Sticker for Ancestral Profiles ==== {{One Name Study|name=Moran}} The first is specifically for Moran (and related variant) lineages. It can be used in place of the Category code shown above: including the sticker automatically adds a profile to the Category. Category information now appears at the very bottom of the profile page, so if you wish to better highlight that the profile is part of the Study you can add this sticker directly ''underneath'' the "== Biography ==" line: '''{{One Name Study|name=Moran}}''' The result—with a unique icon designed for the Study—will look like the small box at right, above. ==== Sticker for Your Own Profile ==== {{Member|ONS|name=Moran}} The second sticker is for use only on the profiles of living people who are participating in the Study. Like you! Again, paste it underneath the "== Biography ==" line: '''{{Member|ONS|name=Moran}}''' It will look something like the second box on the right, but your name will be inserted automatically in place of the dots that you see. == What Can I Do? == If you've put up all of the Moran individuals in your family (or at least all the ones you've found so far), and are looking for something else to do, here are some tasks that you might be willing to help with: # '''Biographies:''' #* We need to make sure that each Moran on WikiTree has a narrative biography containing all the genealogically relevant facts about them (birth, marriage, and death at the very least). For information on biographies, see the [[Help:Biographies|Biographies]] help page. # '''Categories:''' #* We need to make sure that each Moran on WikiTree has the appropriate categories applied to their profile. For information on categories, see the [[Help:Categorization|Categorization]] help page and the [[Project:Categorization|Categorization Project]]. # '''Connecting:''' #* We need to connect all the [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special%3AUnconnected&mId=10209961&order=dateup&viewAll=1&privacy=1&orphans=0&s=MORAN Unconnected Moran] profiles on WikiTree. (This can count towards the [[Space:Connectors_Challenge|Connectors Challenge]] if you're feeling competitive.) For information on connecting profiles, see the [[Project:Connectors|Connectors Project]]. # '''Merging:''' #* We need to merge any duplicate profiles for the same person into one profile for that person. For information on merging profiles, see the [[Help:Merging|Merging]] help page. # '''Sourcing:''' #* We need to have sources for all the profiles on WikiTree. Specifically, we need at least one (and preferably more) sources added for all the [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Category:Unsourced_Profiles&from=Moran-1183 Unsourced Moran] profiles on WikiTree. (This can count towards the [[Sourcerers_Challenge|Sourcerers Challenge]] if you're feeling competitive.) For information on sourcing profiles, see the [[Help:Sources|Sources]] help page and the [[Project:Sourcerers|Sourcerers Project]]. #'''Morans in Wikipedia:''' #* We need to make sure that all deceased [[wikipedia:Moran (surname)|Morans]] with Wikipedia entries have profiles on WikiTree, and are sourced and connected to the main tree. == DNA == DNA is becoming a very important piece to our genealogy research toolbox. As they say, DNA doesn't lie. Currently, we're only aware of a few Moran descendants who have been tested and are available on [http://www.gedmatch.com GedMatch], including [[Moran-1183|Larry Moran]]. That Y-DNA line is matched as R-L21. There are a few other Morans tested on 23andMe and Ancestry. See [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:DNATests&s=MORAN other Moran profiles] that are connected to DNA tests on WikiTree. == Country of Origin == Current research points to modern day Ireland being the origin of the Moran surname, though there are definitely lines that have been found in the Scotland and England area. The yDNA Family Tree DNA test by [[Moran-1183|Larry]] has been shown to be part of the R-L21 Y Haplogroup based on research by the Family Tree DNA [https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/r-l21/activity-feed R L21, Z290 and Subclades Project]. Confused by a lot of the terminology related to genetic genealogy? Hop on over to the [https://isogg.org/wiki/Wiki_Welcome_Page International Society of Genetic Genealogy's Wiki] (ISOGG) for tons of helpful information. == Interactive Map from Aleš Trtnik and WikiTree+ == This interactive world map can be adjusted to filter for various options, and you can pan around the map and even zoom in to display the names of the individuals whose profiles are categorized as part of the WikiTree Moran Name Study. Here is the URL to view the fully-interactive map: https://plus.wikitree.com/findmap.htm?aid=Moran_Name_Study&grouptype=C.

Welcome to the Morton Name Study Project

----- [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Project]] [[Category:Morton Name Study]] ==Introduction== The objective of this Morton Name Study is to make one specific place in Wikitree from which anybody with a serious interest in Morton Surname genealogy could: *Easily navigate to all things Morton in Wikitree *Find other Morton researchers who are pursuing related ancestral lines and could possibly provide assistance, and hopefully begin collaboration *Help clean up and connect Morton profiles on Wikitree to make Morton research on Wikitree more useful *Share the web links to, or the offline location of, reference materials of specific interest in Morton research which has been useful to others *The scope of the Morton Name Study project is intended to be worldwide and across all eras. ==Surnames Included in Morton Name Study== The Morton Surname has had alternate spellings and miss-spellings and / or alterations to or from similar names (e.g Morten, Mortoni, Mortoner, etc.) by genetically linked people. For the time being this study is focused only on the Morton surname itself. Those with similar Surnames may join us if they wish or begin their own Name Study. ==Sub-Categories== No Morton Name Study sub-categories have been established as yet. ==Leaders== * [[Ross-8428|Douglas Ross]] Leader (my Mother was a Morton) ==How to Join== #This is an open public project and there are no requirements to join. Anyone can view all of the information in this project but only the Trusted List can edit it. #[[Project:One_Name_Studies|One Name Studies project page]] - This is a link to the general information page about how Wikitree One Name Study projects work. #Add {{Tag Link|one_name_studies}} to your list of [[Special:Following|followed tags]]. That way you will see any general discussions about One Name Studies in {{G2G}}. #Add {{Tag Link|Morton}} to your list of [[Special:Following|followed tags]]. That way you will see all Morton discussions in {{G2G}} ==Morton One-Name-Study Sticker == It is not necessary to put the Morton One Name Study sticker on every Morton profile. The sticker is basically a means of advertising / promoting the Morton Name Study and guiding others to it via an embedded link. In the Morton study we will use these stickers as follows: *On profiles of the Wikitree Genealogists actively working on the Morton surname *On Morton profiles being worked as part of their study, such as their direct ancestral Morton line *On Morton profiles that are end-of-line heads of families, or "brick walls", etc. *On the profiles of all "Notable" Morton's :Adding this code to any profile: :{{One Name Study|name=Morton}}

[[Category:Mulford Name Study]] [[Category:One Name Studies]] [[Category:DNA Projects]] It is becoming increasingly evident that all Mulfords are related, everywhere around the world, either by ancestry or through adoption. This includes even the Mulfords of South America, in Colombia mostly, all descending from David Mulford of Bogata, son of Pvt Benjamin Mulford of New Jersey. The surname has long been extremely rare, and it remains rare even today, indicative of the singular origin of its bearers. If you are in any way a Mulford or Molford, or Munford, we do want to hear from you. == How to Join == Contact [[Mulford-178|Martyn Mulford]] with questions or suggestions, or to be added to the trusted list and make edits. Anyone can post a comment in the space at right or add a memory or story in the space below. Thank you! == Purpose == We aim to gather in this one place everything about the surname Mulford and its variants (Molford and, sometimes, Munford, but not Milford). Let's make it a valuable reference for everyone studying the lines which cross or intersect with Mulford. We will find that Mulford has no true connection, as whimsically supposed, to the name Milford or Meleford (from the English "mill" and "ford"), denoting descendants of those who lived near a ford ("crossing") by the mill. Molford derives, instead, from the French "mont" and "ford" ("fort"), meaning those from a fortress on the mount. "From the Castle on the Hill" in other words --Castle Montfort-l'Amaury, to be precise. Not from a mountain crossing or mill crossing, mule crossing or mole crossing, muddy crossing or sandy crossing, or any other sort of ford as has been supposed. Evidence presented will show, by multiple exhibits, that Mulford or Molford derives from the surname Munford or Montford, from none other than the Montforts of Montfort-l'Amaury, near Paris, in the Île-de-France region. (Not to be confused with the unrelated Montforts of Montfort-sur-Risle, in the Normandy region of France). Historically, Mulfords in America have written the name both as Mulford and Molford, just like the Mulfords of Europe, and sometimes also as Munford, leaving the "l" silent with a nasalized "n" sound as is traditional among senior Mulfords to this day. (In French pronunciation the "n" in Montford is nasalized and the "t" is silent, sounding much like an "L" to English ears at least. Many French words and names came to be spelled with an L in this way.) == What You Can Do == Please add to the discussion by posting comments here on the following: There are several, competing theories attempting to link Mulford with Milford. One argues that Mulford comes from Milford (Meleford) in Wiltshire while another purports it is from Milford (Milverdico) in Wales. Yet another common, though less accepted, theory asserts it came from a town called Mudford. What evidence, if any, is there in support of these claims? Supposedly, Roger Molford of the county of Devonshire (likely the same man as Roger Mulford in the nearby county of Wiltshire) descended from the Mulefords (Milfords) of Wiltshire, including Richard de Muleford (son of Adam de Meleford of the Manor of Meleford, also called Milford) whose brother John de Muleford was the father of Edmund de Muleford. However, Edmund (whose actual name was Meleford) inherited all of his uncle Richard's property, all of which in turn was inherited by Edmund's daughter Agnes, proving that neither Richard de Meleford nor John de Meleford had any other male heir, and that Edmund de Meleford, in turn, left no male heir of his own, which means this line ended with Edmund. They could not possibly have been our ancestors, therefore. Furthermore, these Milfords never called themselves Muleford, but were nearly always recorded as Meleford, with Meleford being mistranscribed as Muleford (and, sometimes, Mulford, accidentally omitting the letter "e" several times) in only a few instances. == Member Profiles == If you would like to add your name and profile to this list, please let us know.

These included examples such as Dear and Darling, Little and Mann. Curiously, 'Murch' translates as 'Little man' being originally recorded in the form of 'Morch' - see below. Quite why Morch or Murch did not achieve the same popularity as the other names is unclear, but what is certain is that, whilst rare, it has been around for a very long time. It has also been suggested that 'Murch' is a medieval theatrical surname, possibly given to an actor who played a specific part in the travelling theatres of the 14th century, but this is not proven. The name also appears in Scotland under the patronymic form 'Murchison', however the origins are not connected. Muchison is an anglicised spelling of the ancient Gaelic 'Mhurchaidh' meaning 'Sea Warrior' and is merely a sounds-like version of 'Murch'. Examples of the surname recording include '''Edward Murch''', a witness at St Dunstans in the East, Stepney, on March 15th 1628, and '''[[Murch-864|John Murch]]''', who married [[Triggs-253|Martha Triggs]] at St Katherines by the Tower, London, on June 23rd 1717. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of '''Geoffrey Morch''', which was dated 1327, in the Subsidy Rolls of Suffolk, during the reign of King Edward III, known as 'The father of the English Navy' 1327-1377. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Origin of The Name === Many Feel that the name Mutimer is a variation of the name Mortimer. I would like to find where the variation occured or if the name stands on its own. The name seems to originate in Suffolk, England. A lot of my ancestors were found in Hoxne, Suffolk. The oldest Mutimer profile is for [[Mutimer-59|Thomas Mutimer]], born in Suffolk around 1699. Searching for the origins, I have come across 3 families in Suffolk that were having children in the 1750s. This is the earliest date I can find recorded so far. I am going to trace these families and hopefully connect them to know profiles. 1. Anthony and Elizabeth Mutimer in Denham, Suffolk ::Sarah Mutimer Baptized 2 June 1754 ::Lydia Mutimer Baptized 6 June 1755 ::Anthony Mutimer Baptized 26 Dec 1756 ::Elizabeth Mutimer Baptized 23 April 1758 ::Ann Mutimer Baptized 25 Dec 1759 2. Stephen and Frances Mutimer in Redlingfield, Suffolk (Name is listed as Mutum in most cases) ::Ann Mutum Baptized 20 Jun 1747 ::Frances Mutum Baptized 15 Jan 1749 ::Stephen Mutum Baptized 23 Dec 1750 ::James Mutum Baptized 9 Feb 1752 ::Stephen Mutimer Baptized 18 May 1755 3. Elizabeth Mutimer in Eye, Suffolk ::Charles Mutimer Baptized 14 Nov 1756 === 2. Relationships and Connections === There seems to be 4 countries where Mutimer families have popped up, England, United States, Canada and Australia I would love to find relationships between the families in these countries. {{Image|file=Mutimer-76-1.jpg |caption='''Project Members'''}} *[[Mutimer-76|Melissa Jamison]] My Mutimer roots seem to originate from Suffolk, England.

All are welcome. I would consider this a team effort. If you have any questions, just ask. Thanks! == Goals == This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about the surname Narramore and its variants and those people who are interested in connecting with the Narramore family and name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. == Research Areas == Narramore research areas include: === [[Space:Narramore_Name_Study_-_Y-DNA_Tests|Narramore Y-DNA Tests]] === As of Aug 2023, there are six known Narramore Y-DNA tests (various spellings including Northmore and a Nichols-Narramore NPE) in the world; they all match. Several men with different surnames also match, especially Wooldrage, Kingston and Heath. The different surnames are probably due to sharing common ancestors prior to surname-standardization, but could be due to a non-parental event (NPE) such as adoption. Unfortunately, we only have one Narramore Big Y-700 test in the world (ironically, from the Nichols NPE). Until we have more Big Y-700 tests, we won't be able to narrow down timeframes of when our Narramore/Northmore ancestral lines separated. === [[Space:Narramore_Name_Study_-_Devon_England_Roots|Narramore: Devon England Roots]] === All Narramore lines known to date seem to have roots in Devon County, England. Please share your knowledge and theories about early Narramore ancestors and lines of descent here. === [[Space:Narramore_Name_Study_-_Northern_US|Northern US Narramores]] === Although Narramores have spread across the US, this research area is about the ones who first settled in the northeast - and their descendants. === [[Space:Narramore_Name_Study_-_Southern_US|Southern US Narramores]] === This research area is about the Narramores who settled early in the southeast - and their descendants. === [[Space:Nichols_-_Narramore_Connections_in_Early_Tennessee|Nichols-Narramore NPE]] === Researchers learned in Jan 2021 that some of the Nichols lines previously believed to descend from [[Nichols-2850|Walter Nichols (abt.1794-abt.1857)]] instead descend from a southern Narramore. This research area will try to determine which Nichols lines are affected, and how they connect to the Narramore families. == Task List == == Links == * [https://www.facebook.com/groups/7255594095 Narramore Facebook Group] * [https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/narramore/ Narramore Surname Project at FTDNA] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Narramore_Name_Study Narramore Study Categories and Profiles on WikiTree] * [https://bynorthemore.blogspot.com/ Narramore Family Blog (Inactive)]

If you have any questions, just ask. Thanks! To add this category to a profile, you can add '''[[Category:Nash_Name_Study]]''' above the BIOGRAPHY line. To add a sticker to a profile, add the following after the BIOGRAPHY line: '''{{One Name Study|name=Nash}}'''. You can add the text above for people whose married name is Nash also. == Goals == This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about the surname NASH and the variants of that name. There are other variants beyond the two listed. Others such as Nashche, Nasse, and possibly more ancient variants like Ate Nasse, Atten Asche, etc. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. == The Nash Family Name == The English surname Nash is of a local origin, meaning that it is a name derived from the place where a man once lived or where he once held land. The source of the name can be traced to the Old English word "aesc" and the name itself is an abbreviated form of "atten ash", that is, "at the ash tree". Thus, the original bearer of the name lived at, or near, the ash tree which distinguished him from others who may have had a similar first name. The name is recorded in English documents as early as 1221. In that year a Richard del Eshe is listed in the Assize Rolls for Worcestershire. In 1296 Ralph de Asche is registered in the Subsidy Rolls for Sussex along with Alice aten Eysse and John ater Aysse. In 1890, Henry Guppy published "Homes of Family Names" which identified that the name "Nash" was most numerous in the English counties of Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Surrey. The family, like it's name, is of Saxon origins. They were living in England before the Norman Conquest in 1066. In earlier times, the surname of Nash was found living in the counties of Oxford, Worcester, London, Suffolk and Lancaster. They were also located in Ulster, Ireland and Wales at the end of the sixteenth century. Motto: In Utroque Fidelis (Faithful in Either Case) == Notable bearers of the name == Thomas Nash (1567-1601) English Poet, Dramatist and Pamphleteer. Born in Lowestoft and settled in London 1588.

Erick and Isak were siblings from a large family of [[Danielsson-114|Elias Edman Danielsson]] and [[Olofsdotter-421|Elisabet Margareta Olofsdotter]]. While in Sweden, the family continued to use patronymic naming conventions of using the father's first name as a surname variation (Eliasson or Eliasdotter). When Isak and Erick emigrated to the United States in 1891 and 1907 respectively they adopted the surname Norman and settled in Cass County, Minnesota. Both brothers had large families whose descendants span the United States as far west as California and as far east as __?

His son, William Houston Norman moved with his wife to Arizona due her health issues with tuberculosis. They founded the Norman Flower Shop and Nurseries and grew their family.

[[Category: One Name Studies]] [[Category: Nott Name Study]] Nott means: a nickname for a bald man or one who kept his hair extremely close-cropped, from Middle English not(te) ‘bald’ (Old English hnott). English: variant spelling of Knott. First found in Derbyshire where traditionally the name was descended from the Scandinavian King Canute, or Cnut. Drayton sings “The Knot that called was Canutus, bird of old, of that great King of Danes, his name that still doth hold, his appetite to please that far and near was sought, for his, as some have said, from denmark hither brought. https://www.houseofnames.com/ My mother Amy's maiden name was Nott. Her brother, Freeman (always interested in what I was doing) wanted to know if I had any new interesting finds to add to his "Nott" family. I always thought that my grandparents, Harry Nott and Nellie Cooper, were married in England. I should have known that Uncle Free would know! He had their marriage certificate, from - of all places - Snowflake Manitoba Canada. Who knew?? Some of my Nott's originate in London, Westminster and Middlesex, but before that...? And that is the concept of this one name study - to find out where they really started out.

If you have any questions, just ask. Thanks! == Goals == This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about the surname Nowell and its variants. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. == Project Members and their interests== A lis of project members, with information about the focus of their research, can be found at [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:Nowell_Name_Study:_Project_Members&public=1 Nowell Name Study: Project Members]. Do feel free to contact them via the Wikitree messaging system. ==Surname Variants== These variants are included as part of the Nowell Name Study: * Nowel * Knowell A number of other variant spellings of the Nowell surname are encountered, and where individuals with those surname spellings connect to families within the study, the study extends to them. The main ones are: * Knowles * Noell * Nowill Most Noel families are almost certainly unconnected to members of the Nowell family. But some records for early members of the family from which the Noel Earls of Gainsborough came use the spelling Nowell, and this family may be connected with Nowells of Yorkshire; and the Noel spelling is found in some other Nowell family lines. ==Nowell Crest== The Nowell crest on this page is "Or, fretty gules, a chief azure." "Fretty" means covered with fret, which represented the old iron grill work on castle and city gates. "Or" means gold, "gules" means red, and "azure" means blue. Hence, the top of the shield is azure and the bottom is the gold and red plaid with lots of grill work around. This is the crest of one of the main Nowell families of medieval England, based in Lancashire. Several branches of this family used variations on it. ==Origin of the Nowell surname== The most widely accepted explanation of the Nowell surname is that it derives from the French word Noel, meaning Christmas. It may have started as a nickname for someone born in the Christmas period. Another explanation seen sometimes is that the name derives from a place-name, Noailles, in France: there are several possible contenders, including one in Northern France and one in the Limousin (from which the family of the Dukes de Noailles, which became prominent in 16th century France, derived their name). There is no firm evidence to link the name with places in France, though knights from much of France joined in the Norman conquest of England. Despite claims on websites like https://www.houseofnames.com/noel-family-crest/French, there appears to be no evidence that a Robert Noel accompanied William the Conqueror and was given extensive lands in England: the name does not appear on any version of the Battle Abbey roll, nor does it feature in the Domesday Book; and this story appears to derive from fanciful traditions written down around the 14th century by the monks of Ronton Priory, Staffordshire - see http://www.british-history.ac.uk/staffs-hist-collection/vol4/pp264-266. Nowell or Noel or variants were also used as first names, and some families may owe the surname to an early forebear being called Noels or Nowells – that is, son of someone with a first name Noel/Nowell. ==Origins of Nowell families== The first recorded Nowell in standard pedigrees (like that in the Lancashire volume of Foster’s ''Pedigrees of the County Families of England'') is Adam de Nowell of Read in Lancashire, sometimes called Adam de Reved (an old spelling of Read). He was alive in the reign of Henry I (1100-1135). Many descendants of Adam remained based in Lancashire; some had Yorkshire connections; and some were established in London and at Edmonton, Middlesex by Tudor and Stuart times. It is probable that some descendants of this family migrated to North America in the 17th century: as part of this name study it is hoped to establish such links more firmly. Other Nowell families can be found fairly early in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Kent and elsewhere. It is not at present clear how far, if at all, they are connected to the Lancashire Nowells. ==DNA== Some Nowells associated with North Carolina, who may be descended from the Lancashire family, have the haplogroup I-M253, which is particularly common in Scandinavia. Like many medieval families of Northern England, the Lancashire Nowells may well have had Viking ancestry. ==Notable Nowells== * [[Nowell-231 | Alexander Nowell]], c.1516-1602, Dean of St Paul’s Cathedral, London, England * [[Nowell-682 | Laurence Nowell]], c.1530-c.1571, antiquarian, cartographer, Anglo-Saxon scholar * [[Nowell-246 | Increase Nowell]], 1593-1655, a member of the Great Migration, who played a major role in early colonial Massachusetts * [[Nowell-1842|Bradley James Nowell]] 22 Feb 1968 - 25 May 1996, frontman for the rock band Sublime based in Long Beach, California * [[Nowell-2880|Dorcas Marie (Doe) Nowell]] 7 Apr 1925 - 18 Dec 2011, American model and actress ==Migrating Nowells== * [[Nowell-2890|Alice Ellen Nowell Nightingale]], 1855- , migrated from Lancashire, England to New Bedford, Bristol, Massachusetts, United States. * [[Bertholet-21|Anais (Bertholet) Nowell]], 1885-1986, migrated from France to New Bedford, Bristol, Massachusetts. * [[Nowell-3000|Anthony Nowell]], 1772-1857, migrated from Portugal to Portsmouth, Rockingham, New Hampshire, United States. * [[Nowell-2894|Bertha Nowell McLeod]], 1879- , migrated from Blackburn, Bristol, Lancashire, England to Quincey, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States. * [[Stack-1126|Bridget Helen (Stack) Nowell]], 1881-1921, migrated from Ireland to Massachusetts, United States. * [[Wills-6270|Daisy (Wills) Nowell]], 1885-1976, migrated from Liverpool, Lancashire, England to United States. * [[Dromey-17|Delia Agnes (Dromey) Nowell]], 1887-1985, migrated from Ennis, County Clare, Ireland to Massachusetts, United States. * [[Nowell-1622|Elizabeth Mary Nowell Grime]], 1850-1918, migrated from Lancashire, England to New Bedford, Bristol, Massachusetts, United States. * [[Nowell-3042|George Nowell]], 1636-1689, migrated from England to Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts Bay Colony. * [[Nowell-3520|George Nowell]], 1655- , migrated from Taunton, Somerset, England to Barbados. * [[Nowell-2918|Harry Nowell]], 1886-1948, migrated from Blackburn, Lancashire, England to Michigan, United States with his wife [[Grierson-836|Annie (Grierson) Nowell]], 1883-1972. * [[Nowell-246|Increase Nowell]], 1592-1655, migrated from Warwickshire, England to New England, British Colonial America. * [[Noell-1|Jan (John) Nowell, (Noel)]], 1632-1670, migrated from Zeiden, Zuid-Holland, Nederland to Charles City County, Virginia, British Colonial America. * [[Nowell-3517|John Nowell]], 1600- , migrated from England to Mulberry Island, Richmond, Virginia, British Colonial America. * [[Nowell-1478|John Nowell]], 1806-1869, migrated from North Petherton, Somerset, England to Columbus, Franklin, Ohio, United States; with wife [[Murray-15175|Charlotte (Murray) Nowell]], 1808-1891, and children: Robert G., Eliza, Walter, Charles, Frederick, William, John, and Elizabeth. * [[Warner-13351|Marguerite Jenkins (Warner) Nowell]], 1898-1973, migrated from Nova Scotia, Canada to United States. * [[Travis-4548|Mary Alice (Travis) Nowell]], 1848-1925, migrated from Lancashire, England to Sanford, York, Maine, United States. * [[Nowell-2885|Nathaniel Nowell]], 1844-1905, migrated form Oldham, Lancashire, England to New Bedford, Bristol, Masschusetts, United States, with wife, [[Catterall-295|Margaret (Catterall) Nowell]], 1843-1901, from Blackburn, Lancashire, England, along with their children [[Nowell-2894|Bertha Nowell McLeod]], [[Nowell-2895|Leonard Nowell]], and [[Nowell-2896|Maud Nowell]]. * [[Nowell-58|Peter Nowell]], 1673-1740, migrated from Falmouth, Cornwall, England to York, Massachusetts Bay, British Colonial America. * [[Nowell-3516|Peternell Nowell]], 1589- , migrated from England to Barbados. * [[Nowell-2978|Philip Nowell (Noel)]], 1645-1675, migrated from Trinity, Jersey, Channel Islands to New England, British Colonial America. * [[Nowell-92|Robert Nowell]], 1646-1691, migrated from England to Salem, Essex, Massachusetts Bay Colony. * [[Nowell-3531|Stephen Nowell]], abt.1660-abt.1710, migrated England to Philadelphia, Colony of Pennsylvania, British Colonial America. == WikiTree+ Profile Searches == WikiTree+ is an independent service offered for free by [[Trtnik-2|Aleš Trtnik]].
