2451 Mary Jane Jaques, married to Thomas M. Aldrich, was apparently widowed by 1901, with their last child born in 1877. There are pension records of a Thomas Aldrich and a death record in 1890; however, the index records I have do not show Thomas's spouse's name. The record for the second marriage of their son, Augustus Sanford Aldrich (to Lillian Mercer), shows his father as Thomas and his mother as Mary J. White...even though we know his mother was Mary Jane Jaques from the record of Augustus's first marriage (to Annie Levine). So Mary Jaques Aldrich and Mary White are the same person. Family F27721
 
2452 Mary lived with a couple as second parents, details unavailable. They had a son named John. Speyers, Mary (I496)
 
2453 Mary Smalley was the second wife of Ephraim Doane. Family F5035
 
2454 Mary was of Greaat Stanbridge, County Essex, England, and was the first of the four wives of John Winthrop, Sr., followed by Thomasine Clopton, Margaret Tyndal, and Martha Rainsborough. (information from Clopton Family Tree) Forth, Mary (I8227)
 
2455 Mary Wheeler listed as Giles Smith's 2nd wife.

Either lineage or date problems exist related to Mary Wheeler's ancestor-parents. For Mary to be the daughter of Thomas Wheeler and Ann Halsey, according to the current dates, Mary would be born when Ann is 10 years old, and Ann would be married when 8 years old.

Mary's husband, Giles Smith's lineage is also in question. Rather than being the son of Thomas Smith and Frances Sanford, he is more likely the son of Henry Smith and Anne Pynchon. Frances Smith then, would be his grandmother, but there is some lack of clarity in this lineage as well. I have no documentation for either lineage.

2456 Mary's birth date is from the California Death Index, 1940-1997 (in which her 1973 death is in that range). Hill, Mary A. (I14494)
 
2457 Mary's death date is from the California Death Index. Hill, Mary A. (I14494)
 
2458 Mary's maiden name as Jaques is established by the marriage record for Augustus Sanford Aldrich and Annie Levine in 1882. Her surname is given as White in the death record for Augustus Sanford Aldrich in 1920. Her middle name as Jane is established by the birth record of Augustus S. Aldrich in 1856. From these, the conclusions given here are Mary Jane Jaques married first a Mr. White prior to 1852, then married Thomas Aldrich. Jaques, Mary Jane (I11891)
 
2459 Mary's maiden name is also Massie according to some sources. MASSIE, Mary (I5133)
 
2460 Mary's marriage record gives her birthplace as Mason Co, Va; however, her birth record gives Davis Creek, Kanawha Co, VA. Family F1842
 
2461 Mary's surname as "Hill" is from the birth record of John Michael Hochstafl, born in 1946 in Fresno. Hill, Mary A. (I14494)

2465 Matilda is the Latin form of Maud, who was the only surviving legitimate child of King Henry I. In something of a political coup for her father, Matilda was betrothed to the German Emperor, Henry V, when she was only eight. They were married on 7 January 1114. She was twelve and he was thirty-two. Unfortunately there were no children and on the Emperor's death in 1125, Matilda was recalled to her father's court. Matilda's only legitimate brother had been killed in the disastrous Wreck of the White Ship in late 1120 and she was now her father's only hope for the continuation of his dynasty. The barons swore allegiance to the young Princess and promised to make her queen after her father's death. But she needed heirs and in April 1127, Matilda found herself obliged to marry Prince Georffrey of Anjou and Maine. He was thirteen and she twenty-three. It is thought that the two never got on. However, despite this unhappy situation, they had three sons in four years. Matilda was absent in Anjou at the time of her father's death on 1 December 1135, possibly due to pregnancy. Matilda was not in much of a position to take up the throne, which had been promised her and she quickly lost out to her fast-moving cousin, Stephen. With her husband, she attempted to take Normandy. With encouragement from supporters in England though, it was not long before Matilda invaded her rightful England domain and so began a long-standing Civil War from the power base of her half-brother, Robert of Gloucester, in the West Country. After three years of armed struggle, she at last gained the upper hand at the Battle of Lincoln, in February 1141, where King Stephen was captured. However, despite being declared Queen or "Lady of the English" at Winchester and winning over Stephen's brother, Henry of Blois, the powerful Bishop of Winchester, Matilda alienated the citizens of London with her arrogant manner. She failed to secure her coronation and the Londoners joined a renewed push from Stephen's Queen and laid seige to the Empress in winchester. She managed to escape to the West, but while commanding her rear guard, her brother was captured by the enemy. Matilda was obliged to swap Stephen for robert on 1st November 1141. Thus the King soon reimposed his Royal authority. In 1148, after the death of her half-brother, Matilda finally returned to Normandy, leaving her son, who in 1154, would become Henry II, to fight on in England. She died at Rouen on the 10th of September 1169 and was buried in Fontevrault Abbey.

Matilda (Maud the Empress) of England (1102-1167), was left the sole legitimate child of Henry I. by the loss of his son in the White Ship (1120). She married (1) Emperor Henry V, Emperor of Rome, and was crowned at Mainz (1114), but was widowed in 1125 and married (2) Geoffrey IV. le Bel, Plantaganet, 10th Count of Anjou and Maine, Duke of Normandy, having won the Duchy from Stephen, son of Fulk V. the Younger, 9th Count of Anjou, King of Jerusalem, and his wife, Ermengarde. See their ancestral lineage elsewhere in Vol. I. Her first husband was thirty years older, her second husband, ten years younger than herself. Henry made the barons recognize the Empress as his heir (1126, 1131, and 1133), but when he died Stephen ignored her claim to rule England by hereditary right. The Normans preferred his chivalrous geniality to her haughtiness and they disliked the House of Anjou as much as they did the House of Blois, into which Stephen's mother, the Conqueror's daughter Adela, had married. The Empress appealed to the Pope in vain (1136) and Archbishop Thurstan of York defeated her uncle and champion, David I., King of Scotland (1084-1153) at the Battle of the Standard (1138); but at last she landed in England. Geoffrey was the original Plantaganet, so named by his companions for the broom corn he wore on his person.

2467 Maud (Matilda) was the daughter of Edward of Salisbury, feudal baron of Trowbridge and of Chitterne, both in Wiltshire. She brought as her dowry the feudal barony of Trowbridge, while Chitterne was inherited by her brother Walter of Salisbury. de Evreux, Mathilda (I7207)
 
2468 Maud Marshal, married (1) Hugh Bigod, Earl of Norfolk; (2) William de Warren, Earl of Surrey; and (3) Walter de Dunstanville. This lady, upon the death of her youngest brother, Anselme, Earl of Pembroke, s.p., in 1245, and the division of the estates, obtained as her share, the manor of Hempsted-Marshal, in Berks, with office of Marshal of England, which was inherited by her son, Roger Bigod, 4th Earl of Norfolk, and surrendered to the crown by her grandson, Roger Bigod, 5th Earl of Norfolk. Maud, Countess of Norfolk, had likewise the manors of Chepstow and Carlogh. MARSHAL, Maud (Matilda) * (I6908)

2497 Melissa Ann Lindsay, second wife of Cornelius Berninger, is shown in the 1880 census with Cornelius, along with (Edward) Elwood and Louise from his first marriage...and with Martha Lindsay as his stepdaughter. Therefore it is inferred here that Melissa was previously married to a Mr. Lindsay, and her maiden name is yet unknown. Additionally, living next door to Cornelius and Melissa, is Lucy Lindsay, age 67, with a grandson, David Lindsay. It is likely that David, like Martha, is a child of Melissa, and is shown here as such. David is 23 and old enough to care for his grandmother, Lucy next door, so she doesn't have to live alone. In 1890, Lucy Lindsay is shown in a pension record as the widow of James Lindsay, a Civil War veteran. Since Lucy appeared in 1880 without a spouse, it may be that James died during the war. James Lindsey and Lucy Ann are shown in the 1860 census with three children: Thomas W. age 7, Juliam age 11, and Joseph age 13. Thus it is likely that either Thomas or Joseph was Melissa's first husband (Mr. Lindsay). (No record found showing the former marriage of Melissa, and who Mr. Lindsay was.) Family F288

2510 Misc Source Notes from Nancy Bowers family tree site on April 21, 2009:

Update, Feb, 2002.
My research has led me to the strong possibility that the father of John Carter was James Carter, born about 1800 in Kentucky - possibly Montgomery County KY. I also have reason to believe that John's mother was Margurite REFFETT, also from Montgomery County KY.

Doug Couch to Franklin Delano Roosevelt Genealogical Relationship

1. One lineage of ancestors ascending from Douglas Eugene Couch (born California 1947) goes back through Nicholas Snow (born England 1600) to Nicholas Snow (born England 1530, married to Elizabeth (Katherine) Harwoode).

2. Nicholas Snow (born England 1530) is father to Nicholas Snow (born England 1578, married to Elizabeth Rowlles).

3. Nicholas Snow (born England 1578) and Elizabeth Rowlles had sons Nicholas Snow (born England 1600, married to Constance Hopkins, Mayflower passenger) and Anthony Snow (born abt 1629, married to Abigail Warren).

4. One lineage of ancestors ascending from Franklin Delano Roosevelt (born 1882, married to Anna Eleanor Roosevelt) goes back through Anthony Snow (born abt 1629) to Nicholas Snow (born England 1530, married to Elizabeth (Katherine) Harwoode).

5. Although distant and removed, this is a 10th Cousin relationship.


Note by Doug Couch: The birth dates of alleged brothers, Nicholas Snow (born 1600) and Anthony Snow (born abt 1629), and said to be born by the same parents seems rather unlikely. My guess is that someone gathering genealogy information (from which I obtained this lineage connection information) made certain assumptions of relationship that do not exist, or had incorrect information about their various births or parentage through other spouses not named in this information. Thus, before presenting this as lineage for any official purpose, these facts should be researched and determined as possible, utilizing well-researched lineages providing corroborating documentation, particularly primary documents. Other resources list three children of Nicholas 1578, William, Nicholas and Anthony, all born circa 1600 (i.e.-unknown).

2525 Moved NC to Drew Co., AR 1851. Spent some time at Attala Co., MS enroute to Drew.

During War Between the States, became Deputy QM under Maj. Latimore in the state service, and for some time was stationed at Fulton, after which he was detailed to steamboat service, and was captured at Poplar Bluff on Bayou Bartholomew, this being the only time he was exposed to Yankee bullets during his service. Soon after being captured he was paroled, and on June 4, 1865, returned to his home to find most of his property destroyed but immediately set to work to make good his losses, and more than did so. He died at his home 5 miles from Monticello 1908...his wife 1905.

2572 No record has been found for Octavia's birth as an Egnor or death with any last name ascribed to her spouses. Family lore has it that she was an Indian of Cherokee descent, but no further information was given. As she doesn't show in the 1860 census and then shows in the 1870 census as 14 years old, it is possible she was informally adopted into the family. Without U.S., VA/WV or Cherokee records showing this, it is not possible to determine.
If she was Cherokee, none of the ancestors shown here were actually hers...unless some of them were actually Cherokee.
Interestingly, her grandchildren through her daughter, Mary Frances Horton Atkins, never provided either a first or last name or a specific tribe for Octavia when asked, even though decades later it came to light that Mary's oldest daughter at least, did know her name and tribe. This would be congruent with her children instructing her grandchildren throughout their lives to not reveal this information to avoid persecution and possible relocation as an Indian.
Information previously unavailable: A granddaughter of Octavia whose mother grew up away from her siblings after her parents died in 1928 & 1931, said that DNA testing has been done by one of the granddaughter's siblings, and no Native American blood was indicated. Those grandchildren had also been told about being descended from Native Americans (as had the granddaughter's mother's siblings). If more information comes to light and is suitable for showing here, I will add it at that time.

2593 Note in brief clarification related to the allegation that Jacob Harley was the "Earl of Oxford" by Doug Couch, owner of this website:

This family legend seems to be unfounded. One website (site not recorded) which cited this "title" stated that it was a term of endearment, rather than a bona fide English title. This is a more likely scenario.

The earliest Earls of Oxford (20) all lived too early to have been the father of a Jacob Harley married to Mary Adkins, except perhaps the last, Aubrey de Vere, the 20th Earl of Oxford, rather than the 3rd as often cited as Jacob's father. Records from peerage show both those Earls who succeeded to the position, and those who did not. The Earls of Oxford held the position from 1110-1703.

Also called Earl of Oxford, were the Earls of Oxford and Mortimer. The time period for these Earls is more compatible with the Jacob legend, holding the position from 1661-1853. Of these, the 3rd Earl, Edward, had three sons, Edward (4th Earl), John (father of Edward the 5th Earl), and Thomas (Mayor of London). None of these more contemporary Earls' cited descendants were named Jacob. This does not prove there was no Jacob son; however, it "may" indicate that such a son was illegitimate and not in line for the Earldom.

There were also the Earls of Oxford and Asquith from 1852 to the present day. These Earls were all born too late to have a son named Jacob married to Mary.

If Jacob was known to be a descendant or other relative of an Earl of Oxford, and thus lovingly called an Earl by his family, no connection has been shown. One or two authors of genealogy works have cited him as such, but unless someone produces the basis of such a citation, it has no value.

If there had been a Jacob, Earl of Oxford, or a Jacob in line to become Earl of Oxford, it is unlikely he would run off to North America and abandon such a vast wealth, and there are protocols and expectations involved. It is also unlikely that such a man would have a son, Jacob (Jr.), who would inherit all this wealth and then ignore it in favor of a trip across the Allegheny's, as is sometimes also part of the family legend. Whether a term of endearment or simply a wild family tale, there is little reason to accept it as a fact. If Jacob returned to England, where is the record of such a voyage, as there surely would be one? 
Stover, Jacob Jr. (I5394)
