| 1901 | The Battle of Blore Heath took place on 23rd September 1459. It is considered by some historians to be the ‘real’ start of the Wars of the Roses. The battle followed a period in which Lancastrian and Yorkist factions had invested in arms and factions had grown stronger, and further apart than ever. With years of disagreements and lords gathering large military retinues, tension was high. Blore Heath saw that tension explode into war. A Yorkist force was intercepted and attacked by a larger force of Lancastrians led by Lord Audley. Sir Thomas Dutton (1 August 1421 - 23 September 1459) was a medieval English knight. He was the son of Sir John Dutton and Margaret Savage. His family owned an estate, Dutton Hall in Cheshire. The original building is now located in West Sussex, having been moved there in the 1930s; the building housed Stoke Brunswick School, at Ashurst Wood, south of East Grinstead. Sir Thomas Dutton, his brother John and eldest son, Peter Dutton, and his father in law, Lord Audley died on 23 September 1459 at the Battle of Blore Heath, during the War of the Roses. Lord Audley was in command of approximately 10,000 troops defending the throne of King Henry VI. Sir Thomas Dutton married Anne Touchet, daughter of James Touchet, 5th Baron Audley of Heighley Castle and Margaret De Ros. | De Dutton, Knight Thomas (I1189)

| 1902 | The Brewsters are of English extraction and are *probably* descendants of Elder Brewster who came over in the Mayflower. James Brewster, the grandfather of our subject, was a native of Long Island, N. Y., where. he resided until 1800, when he and his family, which consisted of a wife, two sons and a daughter, moved to Susquehanna County, where he spent the remainder of his days. His occupation was that of a shoemaker, which he followed with success. He was the progenitor of a family of three children, namely: Daniel, the father of our subject; Eldad, who was a weaver in Susquehanna County and died at a comparatively young age; and Abigail, who married David Vergason of Bradford County, Pa.

OF the lives of many poets we know too much; of some few too little. Lovers of Herrick are almost ideally fortunate. Just such a bare outline of his life has come down to us as is sufficient to explain the allusions in his poems, and, on the other hand, there is no temptation to substitute chatter about his relations with Julia and Dianeme for enjoyment of his delightful verse. The recital of the bare outline need detain us but a few minutes: only the least imaginative of readers will have any difficulty in filling it in from the poems themselves. From early in the fourteenth century onwards we hear of the family of Eyrick or Herrick at Stretton, in Leicestershire. At the beginning of the sixteenth century we find a branch of them settled in Leicester itself, where John Eyrick, the poet's grandfather, was admitted a freeman in 1535, and afterwards acted as Mayor. This John's second son, Nicholas, migrated to London, became a goldsmith in Wood Street, Cheapside, and, according to a licence issued by the Bishop of London, December 8, 1582, married Julian, daughter of William Stone, sister of Anne, wife of Sir Stephen Soame, Lord Mayor of London in 1598. The marriage was not unfruitful. A William* Herrick was baptised at St. Vedast's, Foster Lane, November 24, 1585; Martha, January 22, 1586; Mercy, December 22, 1586; Thomas, May 7, 1588; Nicholas, April 22, 1589; Anne, July 26, 1590; and Robert himself, August 24, 1591. Fifteen months after the poet's birth, on November 7, 1592, Nicholas Herrick made his will, estimating his property as worth £3000, and devising it, as to one-third to his wife, and as to the other two-thirds to his children in equal shares. In the will he described himself as "of perfect memorye in sowle, but sicke in bodye". Two days after its execution he was buried, having died, not from disease, but from a fall from an upper window. His death had so much the appear- ance of self-destruction that £220 had to be paid to the High Almoner, Dr. Fletcher, Bishop of Bristol, in satisfaction of his official claim to the goods and chattels of suicides. Herrick's biographers have not failed to vituperate the Bishop for his avarice, but dues allowed by law are hardly to be abandoned because a baby of fifteen months is destined to become a brilliant poet, and no other exceptional circumstances are alleged. The estate of Nicholas Herrick could the better afford the fine inasmuch as it realized £2000 more than was expected. By the will Robert and William Herrick were appointed "overseers," or trustees for the children. The former was the poet's godfather, and in his will of 1617 left him £5. To William Herrick, then recently knighted for his services as goldsmith, jeweller, and moneylender to James I., the young Robert was apprenticed for ten years, September 25, 1607. An allusion to "beloved Westminster," in his Tears to Thamysis, has been taken to refer to Westminster school, and alleged as proof that he was educated there. Dr. Grosart even presses the mention of Richmond, Kingston, and Hampton Court to support a conjecture that Herrick may have travelled up and down to school from Hampton. If so, one wonders what his headmaster had to say to the "smooth-soft virgins, for our chaste disport" by whom he was accompanied. But the references in the poem are surely to his courtierlife in London, and after his father's death the apprenticeship to his uncle in 1607 is the first fact in his life of which we can be sure. On 1607, Herrick was fifteen, and, even if we conjecture that he may have been allowed to remain at school some little time after his apprenticeship nominally began, he must have served his uncle for five or six years. Sir William had himself been bound apprentice in a similar way to the poet's father, and we have no evidence that he exacted any premium. At any rate, when in 1614, his nephew, then of age, desired to leave the business and go to Cambridge, the ten years' apprenticeship did not stand in his way, and he entered as a Fellow Commoner at St. John's. His uncle plainly still managed his affairs, for an amusing series of fourteen letters has been preserved at Beaumanor, until lately the seat of Sir William's descendants, in which the poet asks sometimes for payment of a quarterly stipend of £10, sometimes for a formal loan, sometimes for the help of his avuncular Mæcenas. It seems a fair inference from this variety of requests that, since Herrick's share of his father's property could hardly have yielded a yearly income of £40, he was allowed to draw on his capital for this sum, but that his uncle and Lady Herrick occasionally made him small presents, which may account for his tone of dependence. The quarterly stipend was paid through various booksellers, but irregularly, so that the poor poet was frequently reduced to great straits, though £40 a-year (£200 of our money) was no bad allowance. After two years he migrated from St. John's to Trinity Hall, to study law and curtail his expenses. He took his Bachelor's degree from there in January, 1617, and his Master's in 1620. The fourteen letters show that he had prepared himself for University life by cultivating a very florid prose style which frequently runs into decasyllabics, perhaps a result of a study of the dramatists. Sir William Herrick is sometimes addressed in them as his most "careful" uncle, but at the time of his migration the poet speaks of his "ebbing estate," and as late as 1629 he was still in debt to the College Steward. We can thus hardly imagine that he was possessed of any considerable private income when he returned to London, to live practically on his wits, and a study of his poems suggests that, the influence of the careful uncle removed, whatever capital he possessed was soon likely to vanish.* His verses to the Earl of Pembroke, to Endymion Porter and to others, show that he was glad of "pay" as well as "praise," but the system of patronage brought no discredit with it, and though the absence of any poetical mention of his uncle suggests that the rich goldsmith was not well-pleased with his nephew, with the rest of his well-to-do relations Herrick seems to have remained on excellent terms. Besides patrons, such as Pembroke, Westmoreland, Newark, Buckingham, Herrick had less distinguished friends at Court, Edward Norgate, Jack Crofts and others. He composed the words for two New Year anthems which were set to music by Henry Lawes, and he was probably personally known both to the King and Queen. Outside the Court he reckoned himself one of Ben Jonson's disciples, "Sons of Ben" as they were called, had friends at the Inns of Court, knew the organist of Westminster Abbey and his pretty daughters, and had every temptation to live an amusing and expensive life. His poems were handed about in manuscript after the fashion of the time, and wherever music and poetry were loved he was sure to be a welcome guest. Mr. Hazlitt's conjecture that Herrick at this time may have held some small post in the Chapel at Whitehall is not unreasonable, but at what date he took Holy Orders is not known. In 1627 he obtained the post of chaplain to the unlucky expedition to the Isle of Rhé, and two years later (September 30, 1629) he was presented by the King to the Vicarage of Dean Prior, in Devonshire, which the promotion of its previous incumbent, Dr. Potter, to the Bishopric of Carlisle, had left in the royal gift. The annual value of the living was only £50 (£250 present value), no great prize, but the poem entitled Mr. Robert Hericke: his farwell unto Poetrie (not printed in Hesperides, but extant in more than one manuscript version) shows that the poet was not unaware of the responsibilities of his profession. " But unto me," he says to his Muse: "But unto me be only hoarse, since now (Heaven and my soul bear record of my vow) I my desires screw from thee and direct Them and my thoughts to that sublime respect And conscience unto priesthood. 'Tis not need (The scarecrow unto mankind) that doth breed Wiser conclusions in me, since I know I've more to bear my charge than way to go; Or had I not, I'd stop the spreading itch Of craving more: so in conceit be rich; But 'tis the God of nature who intends And Shapes my function for more glorious ends." Perhaps it was at this time too that Herrick wrote his Farewell to Sack, and although he returned both to sack and to poetry we should be wrong in imagining him as a "blind mouth," using his office merely as a means of gain. He celebrated the births of Charles II and his brother in verse, perhaps with an eye to future royal favours, but no more than Chaucer's good parson does he seem to have "run to London unto Seynte Poules" in search of the sixteenth century equivalent for a chauntry, and many of his poems show him living the life of a contented country clergyman, sharing the contents of bin and cruse with his poor parishioners, and jotting down sermon-notes in verse. please review https://archive.org/stream/genealogicalregi00herrrich?ref=ol#page/66/mode/2up | Herrick, Nicholas (I2147)

| 1910 | The recorded history of the Belknap family commences with John Belknap, father of Sir Robert Belknap. It continues through Robert's son, Sir Hamon Belknap (about 1380-1429), to Hamon's son, Sir Henry Belknap (about 1420-1488), to Henry's son, Sir Edward Belknap (about 1471-1521). The surname Belknap, as carried through descendants of Sir Robert Belknap, appears to have died out with Sir Robert's great grandson, Sir Edward. However, several other males surnamed Belknap, whose connections to Sir Robert are at present unknown, were contemporaries of Sir Robert's family during the 15th and 16th Centuries. The Belknap surname may have continued through one of these other contemporaneous Belknaps through the Beltoft family of Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire ("Beltoft" appears to be an Anglo-Saxon etymological derivative of the Norman surname "Belknap"), who assumed or resumed using the surname Belknap in the 1500s, not long before Abraham Belknap (formerly known as Beltoft) emigrated to Massachusetts in the 1630s. (Adaline Knight, first wife of Utah Pioneer Gilbert Belnap (5th great grandson of Abraham Belknap), is a direct descendant of Sir Robert Belknap several ways: through her paternal great grandfather, Samuel Knight, whose Hutchens ancestry ties to Sir Robert via the Whitney-Baskerville-Devereaux-Ferrers lines; and through her paternal grandmother, Rizpah Lee, whose Lee ancestry on both sides of her family ties to Sir Robert via the Hungerford and Shelley lines.) | Belknap, Sir Sir Henry (I763)

| 1911 | The recorded history of the Belknap family commences with John Belknap, father of Sir Robert Belknap (about 1330-1401) who served as Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas of England commencing in 1377; until his banishment to Ireland in 1388 by King Richard II. John Bilknap wa s juror for an IPM at Wiltshire in 1348. John Beleknappe was practising as a lawyer in London in 1346. On 46h July 1356 Hugh Nevill, John Bilknap and Robert Elnsted received a commission in the diocese of Chichester, Sussex, regarding the maintenance of a chapel by the bishop (CPR). In 1367 Robert Bealknapp (John's son), John Bealknapp and others received a commission of oyer and terminer in Sussex concerning a court case relating to the manor of Gretham (CPR). At that time he was a serjeant at law. Writ of Thomas Travers, grant with warranty to Robert Beleknappe and Amy Aunger his wife and their heirs and assigns the reversion of all lands, rents, services etc. in Ditton and East Malling and Kennington, called Ullec, Kent in 1369 (CCR) - In 1352 Robert succeeded William de Pagham as stewart of Battle Abbey. - The king in 1359 sent a letter to the abbots of Battle and Robertsbridge, Robert Belknap and others ordering them to prepare for the enemy of France. On 7 July 1366 Robert and Amy his wife were pardoned for acquiring from the Abbot and Convent of Battle the manor of Kingswode for life, held in chief (CPR Edw.

| 1912 | The Rev. NATHANIEL BREWSTER was a son of FRANCIS BREWSTER and LUCY JONES who were married 5-SEP-1624 in Christchurch, Bristol, Gloucestershire, England, and NATHANIEL was born in Bristol sometime after 1624. NATHANIEL BREWSTER was twice married; his first wife being ABIGAIL REYNES; and his second wife was SARAH LUDLOW. Nathaniel Brewster settled his family in Setauket in 1665, and he became the first minister of what was then called the First Presbyterian Church, and his ministry there lasted for twenty-five years. Many of the earlier Brewsters are buried in the Brewster Family Cemetery located in Setauket on Jeffrey Lane, and many of his descendants are buried here in the Presbyterian churchyard. The headstone says c 1622; He could have been born as early as 1618, if he came to American in 1620.... Actual date of birth is not verified. Nathaniel Brewster was in the first graduating class at Harvard University in 1642. In 1643 he left for England and labored in the Ministry until 1663. He received his BD in Theology in 1648 from the University of Dublin. He found a Congregational Church in Alby, England in 1650. He was known to be an associate of Lord Oliver Cromwell, and active in the Cromwellian Government. In 1655 he was sent to Ireland by Cromwell. Received from Dublin the degree of Bachelor of Divinity; returned to America, and settled in 1656, at Brookhaven, L. I.; and died in 1690, leaving 3 sons, John, Timothy, and Daniel, whose descendants are still respectable on Long Island. Hon. Silas Wood, MS letter. Rev. Nathaniel Brewster was a dissenting minister in England and after his marriage to Sarah Ludlow, they fled from the persecution in England to America for liberty of worship. In 1663, the Brewster family returned to America. Nathaniel Brewster settled his family in Setauket in 1665, and he became the first minister of what was then called the First Presbyterian Church, and his ministry there lasted for twenty-five years. Nathaniel Brewster was twice married; his first wife being Abigail Reynes; and his second wife was Sarah Ludlow. Brewster was married to Roger Ludlow's daughter Sarah, who is said to have been distinguished for her literary acquirements and domestic virtues. By 1656-60, Nathaniel had married Sarah Ludlow, daughter of Roger Ludlow (of established royal descent). Most likely having met and/or married her in Dublin, Ireland, as Roger Ludlow and his family are recorded as having been in Dublin at the time of Nathaniel Brewster's and Henry Cromwell's visits there. It is generally accepted that Nathaniel's first wife, the daughter of John Reymes, was most likely the mother of Nathaniel's first three or four children: John, Abigail, Sarah, and possibly Timothy and that Sarah Ludlow Brewster therefore the mother of the latter children; (possibly Timothy), Daniel (Baptized October 31, 1662 in Alby as the son of Nathaniel and Sarah), Deborah, Dinah, And Hannah. By September 1663, Nathaniel had returned to america with his family, this time in Boston, Ma. By 1665, they had relocated to Setauket, Brookhaven, Long Island, where Nathaniel and Sarah remained for the rest of their lives. Many of the earlier Brewster’s are buried in the Brewster Family Cemetery located in Setauket on Jeffrey Lane, and many of his descendants are buried here in the Presbyterian churchyard. | Brewster, Reverend Nathaniel (I47)

| 1913 | The Sag Harbor Corrector reported on 28 Apr 1894 that Capt. Jonas Winters died on Apr. 26, and that he was 80 years, 10 mos. and 13 days old. He was the captain of a whaling vessel for many years. | Winters, Captain Jonas (I527)

| 1914 | The son of Simon Sr. & Margaret (Baret) Huntington, he was a founder of Norwich in the Mass. Bay Colony. On Oct. 16, 1653, he married Sarah Clark/Clarke, daughter of Joseph Clarke of Saybrook. Simon was a deacon of the First Church of Norwich, a postion that was held by four generations of his descendants. In 1690, he was appointed innkeeper. He left an estate of 275 pounds which included several books. PLEASE "DO NOT" CHANGE ANY OF THIS INFORMATION!!! Simon Huntington, if the Norwich, England records are authority, was born in 1629 in England; and of course was not far from four years of age when the family came to this country. He seems to have possessed the spirit, and to have shared the fortunes of his brother Christopher. With him, he appears at Saybrook, CT where in October 1653, he married Sarah, daughter of John Clarke, of Saybrook, CT. In 1660 he joins the colonists who settled Norwich, CT and thenceforward stands among the first of that important settlement, both in church and state. Here his house lot was also in a central and commanding position, and the records show him to have been a large land-holder, and in worldly matters, an enterprising man. He was chosen, soon after the removal to Norwich, CT Deacon of Mr. Fitch's church, in which office he served with acceptance, until, in consequence of his infirmities, he was succeeded by his son, in 1696. In 1674, he, with that other veteran and tried pioneer, Thomas Leffingwell, represented Norwich in the General Court and he again was a member of the body in 1685. In 1686 the town granted him and his sons 30 acres of pasture, westward of Goodman Sluman. In 1690, and again in 1696, he was the townsman. In 1694 he was appointed a committee to treat with Mr. Jabez Fitch, with respect to his helping and succeeding his father in the work of the ministry. In the same year he was also on a committee to search out and report on the deficiencies in the records. In 1697 he was one of the committee to seat the meeting house. In 1700 he was appointed on a commission to deed anew, lands about whose titles disputes had arisen, or would be likely to arise. On 4/27/1703 he and his son Simon deed away 30 acres of pasture land, west of the great plains, to John Gifford. Deacon Simon Huntington died in Norwich, CT on 6/28/1706, leaving everything to his son Joseph Huntington according to the Windham Probate Records.

| 1915 | The stone castle at Sudeley was mainly built in 1441 by Ralph Boteler, who had the castle confiscated by Edward IV. The King gave it to his brother, who later became Richard III. When Henry VII became king, the castle became his property, and he gave it to his uncle, Jasper Tudor, Duke of Bedford. By the time Henry VIII succeeded, the castle was a property of the crown once again. Henry visited the castle in 1535 with his second queen, Anne Boleyn, but the castle had been unattended for sometime at that point. One contemporary historian said of Sudeley, "[it's] going to ruine, more's the pittie". When Henry VIII died in 1547, his son, Edward VI gave it to Thomas Seymour, the boy-king's uncle. Seymour was made Lord of Sudeley and married Henry VIII's widow, Katherine Parr. During this time, a renewal of Sudeley began. Seymour had a new suite added to the castle for Katherine's private use, but only one room he had constructed remains today. Seymour and his new wife moved to the castle, bringing with them ladies to attend the Queen Dowager, as well as gentlemen of the household and Yeomen of the Guard, bringing the total to over 100 people in residence at Sudeley. Another famous Tudor figure to live at the castle was Lady Jane Grey, whose stewardship had been arranged by Seymour. Katherine personally directed the decorating of the rooms planned for the child she was carrying. A daughter, Mary, was born on August 30, 1548, but Katherine contracted puerperal fever and died on September 5. The exact fate of the child is not known. Queen Katherine Parr was laid to rest in St. Mary's Chapel at Sudeley. Her grave was rediscovered in 1782 after the Castle and Chapel had been left in ruins by the English Civil War in the mid-17th century. The lead casket was opened and it was commented that the body was 'uncorrupted'. However, lack of attention led to the degradation of the remains, and the Queen was reinterred in 1817 by the Rector of Sudeley. The plaque next to the tomb was copied from the original inscription on the lead coffin. The effigy on the tomb was made in Victorian times. Thomas Seymour's ambitions led to his arrest and trial on 33 counts against King and Crown. He was executed on March 20, 1549 and Sudeley passed to the Marquess of Northampton, Katherine Parr's brother William, but he was stripped of his titles and properties after the failure of John Dudley's plot to make Jane Grey Queen. In 1554, Mary I gave Sudeley to John Brydges, Lord Chandos, and it remained in their family into Elizabeth's reign. Elizabeth I was entertained three times at Sudeley, including a spectacular feast in 1592 to celebrate the anniversary of the defeat of the Spanish Armada. jblair136 added this on 3 Sep 2012 Hauntings There is a melancholy figure who is said to haunt the castle. This figure is described as a tall woman wearing a green Tudor styled dress. The Lady in Green who looks out of a window and walks through the Queen's garden is thought to be the ghost of Catherine Parr. Catherine Parr, was the sixth wife of Henry VIII. After Henry died in 1547, she married Thomas Seymour, 1st Baron Seymour of Sudeley. Later that year, Catherine became pregnant at age 35 and gave birth to a daughter named Mary. A week later, to everyone's dismay, Catherine became ill with puerperal fever and died. Catherine was buried on the grounds of Sudeley in the Chapel of St. Mary. Her daughter, Mary, was abandoned by her father and was taken in by Catherine's close friend, Catherine Willoughby. After 1550, as there is no record of Mary Seymour, most historians believe she died. During the civil war a century later, the Chapel where Catherine was buried was ransacked and her casket disappeared. In 1782, a local farmer came upon her casket. He opened it up to find her perfectly preserved. After taking a few locks of hair he closed the coffin and buried it again. Catherine's tomb would then be disturbed again in 1792 by two drunk men who roughed up the coffin and buried it upside down. It would not be until 1817, when her remains were moved to the tomb of Lord Chandos in St. Mary's Chapel that Catherine would be properly buried and honored with a marvelous marble tomb. As to Catherine's ghost, some think that she is still at Sudeley searching for her daughter whom she never had the pleasure of knowing. Many members of the household staff have reported seeing this apparition and have now come to accept it as the ghost of Queen Catherine. | Botiler, Lady Joan (I795)

| 1933 | Thomas Tuttle (Totehyll), father of Richard who was the father of Symon Tuttle: Alva Tuttle in 1968 indicated that Thomas TOTEHYLL, of Woodford, co Northampton, England, was born about 1506. He was assessed for the subsidy there, 10 Nov 1544. He was a witness to the wills of Robert Crosse, 1524, Robert Pashler, 1538, Sir William Longe, 1541, Elizabeth Whitbred, 1552 and Richard Lyncoln, 1545. She indicates he was probably the father of Richard. Billie Redding Lewis in the Redding Family and its relatives has the following account: "The name Tuttle is said to have been derived from 'tothill, a 'hill of god' -- hills or artificial mounds which at one time were sacred in pagan worship and can be traced back to Egypt's ancient deity, Tot or Thot." Evidently the English have approved a number of lines including the line of William Tuttle. Richard was the only child listed of Thomas Totehyll who came from Woodford Co., Northampton, England. Thomas was still living in Woodford in 1554 when he was on King Henry VIII's subsidy and tax roll. A year later he was named as witness for the will of Richard Lyncoln, and the last record found was as a witness to the will of Elizabeth Whitbred in 1552. Per Gwen Campbell's edited version of Alva Tuttle's book Thomas was assessed for subsidy in Woodford 10 Nov 1544; witness to wills from 1524-52 (p.?540). Resided in Holcott and Woodford, Northampton County, England. Probably the father of Richard. (8, 14) Note on Richard Tuttle (Toothill) father of Symon: His own will was proved 11 Mar 1589/90 at Peterborough and named the following children: Symon, Anthony, Elizabeth, Ellen, Mary, Frances, and Thomas. Another list gave William, but not Anthony. His wife was co executor with one of the sons. Campbell and Alva Tuttle said Anthony and Lewis said William. (8, 9, 14) Note on Symon Tuttle, son of Richard, husband of Isabel Wells, father of William and Richard Tuttle: On an internet site was the following: The Tuttle name is probably taken from the name of a locality, and the name of Tothill, Toothill or Tuthill is still borne by many villages in Great Britain. The first name on the roll of the Battle Abbey (1066) is Toteles. The family has been well known in several parts of England and many of its members have held positions of honor and distinction. The family claims very ancient descent in Ireland, being known before the Christian era in the well-known sept or tribe of O'Toole, which also appears written O'Tothill by antiquarians. Between the years 1629 and 1640 many families left England on account of the conditions existing there. In the year 1635 there were three distinct families by the name of Tuttle who came to America in the ship "Planter", and besides these two other Tuttles bearing the Christian name of John, one of them accompanied by his brother Henry came in that year. Others came a few years later. Of those who came in the "Planter", John Tuttle settled at Ipswich, Richard in Boston and William in New Haven. Genealogies by the Library of Congress since 1986 Section II, Page 1089 Alva Tuttle in 1968 wrote that Symon TOOTILL or TOWTILLS of Ringstead, co Northampton, born say 1560, buried at Ringstead, 15 June 1630; married ISABEL WELLS, born about 1565, daughter of John Wells of Ringstead, who mentioned her in his will in 1618. Symon was mentioned in his father's will in 1589 and in that of his father-in-law in 1618. The will of John Wells also named all four of his Tuttell grandsons. Symon was supervisor of the will of Matthew Harris of Woodford, 5 Nov 1600. His own will was proved 1630 at Northampton. Note on Isabel Wells, wife of Symon Tuttle: The Symon Tuttle family embarked 2 April 1635 from England for America on the Planter. James Strictland thought the marrige date about 1590, 2nd Torrey Supplement about 1592. Alva Tuttle that John Tuttle, b. 1596 is a nephew of Symon Tuttle and Isabel Wells, and not a son. (#2, 9, 13) While this widow of Symon Tuttle accompanied her sons on the "Planter" in 1635, no record of her has been seen in this country, and probably, if she survived the trip, she did not long survive after arrival. (Found on internet site) Note on Richard Tuttle, son of Symon, brother of William: Passenger list from Ron Miller 1/24/2007: "Theis parties heereunder mencioned are to be transported to New England: imbarqued in the Planter Nicholas Trarice Master bound thether: they have brought certificates from the Justices of Peace and Ministers of ye parish that they are conformable to the orders of ye Church of England and are no Subsedy men: they have taken the oath of Supremacy & Allegiance at Anno Pred. Richard Tuttell, Husbandman 42 Ann Tuttell 41 Anna Tuttell 12 John Tuttell 10 Rebecca Tuttell 6 Isbell Tuttell 70 William Tuttell Husbandman 26 Elizabeth Tuttell 23 John Tuttell 3 1/2 Ann Tuttell 2 1/4 Thomas Tuttell 3 mos." Note on William Tuttle, son of Symon, brother of Richard… William Tuttle came from England to New England in the Planter 1635, age 26, with wife Elizabeth, and children John, Ann, and Thomas. Also on the planter were his brother Richard and cousin or brother John Tuttle accompanied by Richard and William's mother, Isabel (Wells) Tuttle.. William Tuttle is found in 1635, shortly after his landing in Boston, as an inhabitant of Charlestown where he, starting his civic duties immediately, was chosen surveyor for the town. Also there is a permit noted in the town records for William Tuttle to build a windmill. Evidently William was a merchant in Charlestown. In 1669 he was an arbitrator in the boundary dispute between New Haven and Branford. In 1666-67 he was a constable. He bought land in New Haven "in the Neck" which became William Tuttle's homestead. Yale University built its first building on this land which was the only land owned by the college for nearly 30 years. William's story is one of a 26 year old Englishman coming to a strange, untamed environment and becoming a successful businessman and an influential Puritan who helped mold the foundations of a great country for his descendants. Aaron Burr was said to be the third great grandson of William Tuttle. This needs to be proved. Rev. Jonathan Edwards was the great grandson of William and Eli Whitney was also said to be descended from this branch of Tuttles. (14, 15) Note on Mercy Tuttle, dau. of William, mother of Francis Brown who was the grandfather of Jemima Brown: FROM: http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Acres/5127/Readyhough/tuttle.html Mercy b 1650 m 5/2/1667 Samuel Brown, son of Francis and Mary EDWARDS Brown. She was accused at age 14 of stealing and drinking liquor. She chopped her 17-year-old (?) son, Samuel Jr, to death with an axe as he lay in his bed. Her husband said she had seemed rational, but the day before, she said she would have the children buried in the barn, because "dreadful times are coming". He said she had "slept but little for two or three nights before." Joseph Brown, age 24, testifed that she had thrown scalding water at him and he thought her "much out of her head." Mercy's sister, and Simon Tuttle and his wife thought she had seemed distracted "that morning and before." Mary Moss testified that "Mercy came to their house a little before the sad accident and wished Mr. Moss to look after her husband." Neighbors testified they had come to her house for fire and when she came out with it, she went down the hill towards the swamp seeming distracted. In jail, she seemed distracted, seemed much grieved at having given offense to someone who knew nothing of it. Those who took her to New Haven for trial testified that she seemed "shaken in her understanding." Though her attorney pleaded insanity, the jury found her guilty, and the judge sentenced her to die. It wasn't a popular verdict, the town felt she should be exonerated on the basis of insanity. But confusion, resulting over the removal of the governor from his office, allowed Mercy to escape execution. Note on Sarah Tuttle, dau. of William Tuttle: Sarah was murdered. (1, 2) Note on Benjamin Tuttle, son of William Tuttle: Benjamin Tuttle was executed for the murcer of his sister Sarah. (1) Note on Hannah Tuttle, dau of Richard Tuttle, mother of Mary Pantry who was wife to Nathaniel Mix: Taking the information from Jacobus Families of Ancient New Haven v. 8, p. 1882, I had originally linked Hannah Tuttle to William and Elizabeth Tuttle. Another researcher indicated a Tuttle genealogy online indicated Hannah was the daughter of William's brother Richard quoting:from the book (Tuttle-Tuthill lines in America by Alva M. Tuttle, Columbus, Ohio 1968, p. 230) : First Ch, Boston, Mass V:"Hannah, ye da of ye dec bro Richrd Tuttle, now ye wife of one John Pantry of Hartford hath Lettres of Recommend to ye Church there ye 23rd day, 7th mo, 1649" Torrey also indicates that John Pantry married Hannah Tuttle, dau. Richard, m/2 Thomas Welles, Jr. 1654; ca 1649 Hartford. In 1954 in TAG 30:7-10 Jacobus discusses the Tuttles and corrects his linking of Hannah to William in Families of Ancient New Haven. He writes on p. 7: "Hannah the wife of John Pantry and Thomas Welles of Hartford was daughter of Richard Tuttle of Boston. Ann or Anna the daughter of William Tuttle of New Haven married first, Joshua Judson of Stratford, and second, John Hur ‘Jr.’ of Stratford and Woodbury, Conn, by both of whom she left issue." Bad luck in marriages??? Hannah’s husband John Pantry died at 24 years of age. Hannah then married Thomas Welles who died at 43… Killed in a fall from a cherry tree. (7) | Totehyll, Thomas (I324)

| 1934 | ThomasA Eames(1) (#5728) was born in Fordington, Dorsetshire, England. Thomas was buried June 25, 1618 in Fordington, Dorsetshire, England.(2) He married Millicent (Eames) in probably, St.George, Dorsetshire, England. (Millicent (Eames) is #5729.) Millicent was born circa 1552 in Dorset, England. Millicent died May 1614 in Fordingham, Dorset, England, at 61 years of age. Thomas is the only man of the Eames family mentioned in those early records of Fordington that have been examined. The Bishops Transcript of the Parish Records tantalizes the researcher with the note that in 1588 "Jone Emes widow an old woman was buried ye 17th day of June." (Thomas Eames MOTHER - Joan)It's possible that other branches of the Eames family were in the town of Dorchester, which is nearly surrounded by the parish of Fordington, or that some Eames marriages took place there, but the early registers of Dorchester have not been preserved. The occupation of Thomas hasn't been discovered, nor his location within the large area of the parish.

Another son, Henry 1, b. in Eng., in 1612; m. Bridget ____, who afterward m. William Wells. He settled at Hingham, Mass., in 1637; removed to Southhold, in 1644. (Southold Town Rec., I. 217. also Moore's "Index," pp. 41, 42). The descendants on L.I. are from Henry 1. (Whitaker's "Southold," p. 30). Griffin ("Journal," pp. 15, 16, 21, and elswhere) substitutes John 1 for Henry 1; and thus makes John 1 the ancestor. The following, down to the boigraphy of Dea.

The first record of Gidea Hall is in 1250,[1] and by 1410 it was in the hands on one Robert Chichele.[2] In 1452 Sir Thomas Cooke (c.1410-1478), a Lord Mayor of London, bought the estate[2] and in 1466 was granted a licence to crenellate, which is a licence for the manor house to be fortified. The manor work started in 1466 with the construction of a moat and other alterations which were not finished until 1568. The main house and two adjacent wings formed three sides of a courtyard with an open colonnade on the fourth side[1] and various outbuildings. Maria de Medici, the mother-in-law of King Charles I stayed at Gidea Hall in 1638 on her way from Harwich to London, although by then the hall was falling into decay.[3] By the time of the Commonwealth the buildings were ruinous, but were not finally demolished until 1720 when Sir John Eyles had a new mansion built on the site. In 1783 a book entitled An enquiry by experiment into the properties and effects of the medicinal waters in the County of Essex includes an entry for "Gidea Hall water", describing the source as rising on the "bank of the canal in the park of Richard Benyon, Esq". The canal referred to is now the lake in Raphael Park, which was recorded on the 1888 Ordnance Survey map as Black's Canal after the Black family; a map prepared for Alexander Black in 1807 clearly shows the spring. An investigation into the spring in 1910 recorded that it had "been drained, filled up and turfed about 4 years ago".[4] The later Gidea Hall was of brick. The Gidea Hall estate was purchased in 1897 by Herbert Raphael, and in 1902 he gave 20 acres (81,000 m2), including a lake, for use as a public park; a further 55 acres (220,000 m2) was subsequently purchased and Raphael Park opened in 1904. In 1910 Raphael and two fellow Liberal MPs formed Gidea Park Ltd with the aim of building a garden suburb on the Gidea Hall and Balgores estates,[5] and during the First World War they offered both properties to the Artists Rifles for use as an Officers' School.[6] The house was demolished in 1930.[7] The wall, railings and gate from the early 18th century remain and are now Grade II listed structures.[8] References[edit] ^ a b Davis, Philip.
