621	I7670	DONNELL	Henry	1602	Feb 1691	0	In the early 17th century, Henry Donnell emerged from the church and borough records of Barnstable, Devon, as a man embroiled in legal disputes. By 1631, his name, alongside George Jewell's, became a fixture in these records. Little did he know that his life would soon intertwine with the vast landscapes of New England and the bustling life of a fisherman and innkeeper. Henry's journey to New England likely began around 1631, possibly on a fishing voyage with George Jewell. By 1635 or 1636, he found himself in York, Maine, a world away from his English roots. Here, Henry transitioned from a fisherman, at times partnering with Sampson Angier, to an innkeeper, a role that would define much of his life in the New World. His inn, strategically located on the road from York Street to Stage Neck, became a hub for transient fishermen and travelers. By 1649, Henry was recognized in the community, paying an excise tax for drawing liquor, a testament to the bustling nature of his establishment. His entrepreneurial spirit also led him to establish a fishery on Bragdon's Island. For about 18 years, Henry lived and managed a fishing enterprise on Jewell's Island in Casco Bay, which he acquired shortly after Jewell's death in 1638. Meanwhile, his wife, Frances, adeptly ran the inn back in York. Their partnership was a blend of business acumen and resilience, with Frances even taking over the management of a neighboring inn at one point. The couple's life was not without its challenges. Court records indicate that Henry and Frances lived apart prior to 1667, with Frances authorized to retain earnings from her own industrious management of the inn. In 1671, she was noted for furnishing beer for the county courts, further highlighting her role in the community. Henry's life was deeply intertwined with the community of York. He served as a juror and selectman multiple times, reflecting his standing in the town. His oath of allegiance to Massachusetts in 1652 marked his commitment to his new homeland. Despite the challenges, including disagreements over land divisions and the turbulent times of King Philip's War, Henry and Frances carved out a life of significance in early American history. Their story, from the records of Barnstable to the shores of Maine, paints a vivid picture of resilience, adaptability, and the pursuit of opportunity in a new world.	tree1
622	I7670	DONNELL	Henry	1602	Feb 1691	0	My notes: On this URL, the author has faithfully numbered his sources which he lists at the bottom of the page: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mainegenie/DONNELL.htm "The names Henry Donnell and George Jewell are in the church and borough records of Barnstable, Devon from 1631 until 1634 Henry being a litigant in the Court of Sessions(1)" "In his deposition of 25 Aug. 1676 Henry Donnell suggests that he was in New England in 1631, apparently on a fishing voyage with George Jewell. His deposition of 21 Mar. 1683 shows that he was in York in 1635 or 1636." "Henry was at first a fisherman at one time in partnership with Sampson Angier,(2) later he was also an innkeeper. He lived on the road leading from York St. in the Harbor to Stage Neck which he possessed and used as a fishing stage for many years.(3) The road led to the ferry from the neck (then Stage Island) across the York River to Raynes Neck or Seabury Bank. It is probable that Henry had the ferry across the river. No record substantiates this but, it is an obvious inference as it cannot be admitted that such a convenience did not exist in the twenty years before the granting of the first recorded license. It was the natural location for ferriage being the narrowest part of the river and the establishment of a tavern at that point strengthens this opinion although the taverner may have maintained it for business reasons until the town took formal action.(4) Henry kept the tavern there. How early he combined his trade of fisherman with innkeeping is not known but, he was here as early as 1641 and probably catered to transient fishermen and travelers soon after. In 1649 his name is found in a list of those paying the excise tax for drawing liquor. He was charged with two pipes or butts of wine and 54 gallons of "licquers" an amount equal to Wardwell the taverner of Wells and greater than the tax for the widow Puddington's tavern in York.(5) Henry also had a fishery on Bragdon's Island.(6) He witnessed William Hooke's deed 18 Oct. 1644." "For some 18 years before King Phillip's War Henry lived and carried on a fishing enterprise at Jewell's Island in Casco Bay which he acquired a few years after Jewell's death in 1638 while his wife carried on the inn at York. On 6 Dec. 1664 he morgaged his houses, lands, fish houses, etc. as security for a contract to deliver a quantity of fish. The court records show that Frances and Henry were living apart prior to 1667 and she was authorized to retain for her own use what she had made by her own industry, she having a tavern license in 1669. This was about the time of Nicholas Davis' death and as they were next-door neighbors she may have assumed the management of his old inn.(7) In 1671 Frances furnished two barrels of beer for the county courts. On 2 Apr. 1660 Frances and her daughters Sarah and Margaret received a deed of land from the widow Ann Godfrey "for love and affection". In 1676 Henry was again an innkeeper in York." "On 29 Feb. 1671/2 being "stricken in years, and not capeable of manageing my fishing and my Island" Henry gave his Jewells Island land with his fishing plant to his son Joseph on the condition that he should have his maintenance there "So long as I please to continue with him there."(8)" "Henry appears among the jurors in 1650 and in 1653, and on the grand jury in 1651 and 1660. He was a selectman in 1661, 1666, 1673, 1677-9, and in 1683." "Henry took the oath of allegience to Massachusetts 22 Nov. 1652." "He, along with many others, was not satisfied with the division of Godfrey's land and they signed a petition to the general court in Boston stating their view. However, the awards were never changed.(10)" "Henry was evidently satisfied with the Massachusetts government as he did sign the petition to Cromwell which referred to the complaints presented to the Protector by "some gentlemen of worth" (i.e. Godfrey) for restitution of their right of jurisdiction and asked that they be not heeded, intimating that they are instigated by "professed Royalists whose breathings that way... have been so farre stifled."(11) His son Thomas did not sign this petition. However, both Henry and Thomas signed the "govern or get out" petition which was an indictment of incompetency with a notice that they would expect "due & seasonable performance" of Massachusetts' obligations to maintain law and order: "Your tollerating such an inconsiderate number of opposers frequently to violate & trample upon yr authority & laws, as cannot be altogether unknowne to you, to the obstruction of Justice, infringeing our Lybertys, deviding our peace and if not speedily prevented by your Worships, may as the case stands, snarl us in the bonds of Inextricable & prejudiciall Injuries, upon whom, under God, & our dread sovereigne wee looke att our selves Ingaged att present to depend for our security & releife."(12)" "Henry gave a deposition concerning John Pullman's estate 24 Sept. 1680.(13)" "Last mention of Henry in public records was made in 1687 but, the inventory of his estate was not made until 25 April 1693.(14)" --------------------------------------------- Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire (G.D.M.N.H.) Authors: Sybil Noyes, Charles Thornton Libby, Walter Goodwin Davis Publication: Portland, ME: Southward Press, 1928, page 199 "The names Henry Donnell and Geo. Jewell are in the church and borough records of Barnstable, co. Devon, 1631-4." "HENRY, b. ab. 1602-08" and he was first mentioned in 1641 but when he gave a deposition about Thomas Bradbury on 21 March, 1682-3, he stated that he was about 78 years old and that "47 or 48 years ago" he'd been in York, which was in about 1635-6. When Henry deposed on 25 August, 1676 (age 68, he said), his statement made it sound as if he had been in Maine, "at least on a fishing trip" in about 1631. "See Thomas Brooks." My notes: On page 112 of G.D.M.N.H., Thomas Brooks was a man who used an alias at times, "Basil Parker." Why? No one seems to know. In 1610, a Basil Parker was adm. (administrator or admitted?) "to comp(any) of haberdashers, London.....who was likely the same B.P., haberda(sher). of St. Gregory's by St. Paul's m(arried) 2 Feb. 1610-11 to Anne Saville." A Basil Brooks (now it's Brooks rather than Parker) sailed on the same ship with Henry "Dunnell" in 1635. Thomas Brooks first appeared at Saco court on 25 June, 1640, but as Basil Parker he witnessed deeds in 16443-1646. He was a Recorder from 1647 to his death and a Councillor in 1650-51. He owned property in partnership with Peter Weare (Henry's son-in-law) and died (apparently) at Gunnison's tavern, leaving records in Gunnison's trust. The administration of his property in 1651 was given to Mr. John Alcock, "with whom and his wife he was several times a wit(ness)." "Henry was an "early fisherman, later innkeeper at the Stage Isl. ferry, his w(ife) ran the inn while he lived at Jewell's Isl. in Casco Bay, where he made fish 16 or 18 yrs. until Philip's War (his s(on) Samuel said near 30 yrs. and that he bot the island of the Ind.; he mortg. it in 1644)." "At York, in 1676, Henry was an innkeeper again but in 1678 he was selling without a license. In 1686-87, he was licensed again. Henry was on the jury in 1650 and 1653 and on the Grand Jury in 1651, 1660. He was elected as a selectman in 1661, 1667, 1673, 1677-79, 1683. The last mention of Henry was in June 1687. An inventory of his estate wasn't completed until 25 Apr. 1693, "after the massacre." Henry's name showed up on several "Lists" and even though I don't understand what all of them were, I'll list them here as they're shown in G.D.M.N.H. List 272 - "Twenty-Seven owners of the Patent - 2 Me. Hist. Coll(ection) 323-325" List 275 - "An Imperfect List of the Inhabitants of York, made up in advance of their submission to Mass. - Mass. Arch. iii 193" List 277 - "Protest by the Inhabitants (of York) against the decision of the Mass. commissioners in favor of Mr. Godfrey, presented 21 Oct. 1654." Henry "Dunnell" and Peter Weare were two of the men who signed this list. List 285 - "Creditors of Robert Weymouth's estate, 1663 - York Court Records "Hene: Donnell" was one of the men on the list. List 24 - "Petition to the Lord Protector, 1657." That would be Oliver Cromwell. List 25 - "Petition from Maine, except Saco and Scarborough, for Mass. to use force, not merely declarative acts, to protect the inhabitants against a pretended power of Esq. Gorges's commissioners, (Fall of 1662) - Mass. Arch. 3: 269. Me. Prov. and Court Records i.199." ------------------------------------- Pioneers on Maine Rivers: With Lists to 1651 By Wilbur Daniel Spencer, Published by Printed by Lakeside printing company, 1930, p. 143 "DONNELL, HENRY, born 1602, fisherman; York, 1631; occupied Jewell's Island; died 1680; widow Frances, daughter of John Gouch, of York; children Henry, Joseph, Margaret, Samuel, born 1645, Sarah and Thomas." p. 134 Henry was on a list of heads of families, living in York, Maine in 1640. pp. 136-138 - YORK RIVER "(Edward) Godfrey's first fishing operations appear to have been conducted on Stage Island where he maintained two houses in 1648. His wife disposed of this island with the premises at Rogers' Cove to Sampson Anger and Henry Donnell, fishermen, before 1659." "DIVISION OF LAND ON THE EAST BANK" (of the York River) "June 11, 1641, the eastern bank of York River had been apportioned as far upriver as Gorges, now known as Cider Mill Creek. The entire tract was three miles wide, and extended inland for six miles. The final division, made the same year, mentioned only the dwellings of Henry Donnell, at Lobster Cove, Henry Lynn, on the south side of Gorges Creek, and the farmhouse of William Hook, in Scotland Parish." At Lobster Cove, next to "Farmer Alcock's Neck" on the eastern bank of the York River at York Harbor, was Henry's home and "fishing establishment." Henry stated that he had been living in that area in 1631. p. 232 "Jewell's Island contains about 100 acres and lies on the outer rim of the Casco archipelago. The first known occupant was George Jewell who found it a safe and convenient fishing port. It was provided with stages and flakes. A mariner who gave his name to the northern sound was George Luxon, a fishing master from Barnstable. Before 1660 the place was utilized by Henry Donnell, the veteran fisherman of York." ------------------------------------------ http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=nhfirstsettlers&id=I11526 Early fisherman, later innkeeper at the Stage Island ferry, his wife ran the inn while he lived at Jewell's Island in Casco Bay, where he made fish 16 or 18 years until Philip's War (his son Samuel said near 30 years and that he bought the island of the Indians; he mortgaged it in 1644). In 1676 he was again innkeeper at York, but in 1678 was selling without a license; again licensed 1686-1687. Jury 1650, 1653; grand jury 1651, 1660.

626	I5177	DROUIN	Robert	6 Aug 1607	1 Jun 1685	0	HIGHLIGHTS: The story of Robert and Anne's marriage is notable for several reasons. Their marriage contract, signed on July 27, 1636, in the home of Seigneur Giffard, is the oldest surviving marriage contract drawn up in New France. What makes this contract particularly remarkable is that Anne was only 10 years old at the time of signing. The actual wedding ceremony took place a year later, on July 12, 1637, at Notre-Dame de Québec. However, due to Anne's young age, the contract included a provision that marital relations were not to take place for two years. This arrangement reflected the complex realities of life in the early colony. Robert and Anne's union produced six children. Tragically, their first child, Agnes, born in January 1641, lived for less than a week. Only two of their children, Geneviève and Jeanne, survived to adulthood. Anne died at only 22 years old. Following Anne's death, their daughters Geneviève and Jeanne were raised by their grandparents, Zacharie and Xainte Cloutier. This arrangement was reportedly due to the grandparents' disapproval of Robert's second wife, Marie Chapelier, whom he married in November 1649. Robert had 8 more children with Marie. CONNECTIONS: Michelle is descended (9th GGF) from Robert and Anne's daughter Genevieve and Jim is descended (9th and 10th GGF) through Jeanne on the Dumas and Vermette/Gilbert branch. Jim and Michelle are also descnded from Robert and his second wife, Marie Chapelier (9th GGF). LIFE STORY: Robert Drouin, born in 1607 in Le Pin-la-Garenne, Perche, France, was among the early settlers of New France. A skilled brick maker, he was part of the Percheron migration that played a crucial role in establishing the French colony in North America. In 1635, Robert arrived in New France, where he began working for Seigneur Robert Giffard in Beauport. Anne Cloutier, born on January 19, 1626, in Mortagne-au-Perche, France, was the daughter of Zacharie Cloutier and Xainte Dupont. She arrived in New France with her family in 1634 at the age of eight. The Cloutiers were also part of the Percheron migration and became close associates of Seigneur Giffard. The story of Robert and Anne's marriage is notable for several reasons. Their marriage contract, signed on July 27, 1636, in the home of Seigneur Giffard, is the oldest surviving marriage contract drawn up in New France. What makes this contract particularly remarkable is that Anne was only 10 years old at the time of signing. The actual wedding ceremony took place a year later, on July 12, 1637, at Notre-Dame de Québec. However, due to Anne's young age, the contract included a provision that marital relations were not to take place for two years. This arrangement reflected the complex realities of life in the early colony. Robert and Anne's union produced six children. Tragically, their first child, Agnes, born in January 1641, lived for less than a week. Only two of their children, Geneviève and Jeanne, survived to adulthood. Michelle is descended through Genevieve and Jim is descended through Jeanne (on the Vermette/Gilbert branch). Anne's life was cut short at the young age of 22. She died on February 3, 1648, in Château-Richer. Her funeral, as described in the Jesuit Relations, was a solemn affair that involved the entire community. The description provides a vivid glimpse into the funeral customs of early New France, highlighting the challenges posed by the harsh winter conditions and the limited resources of the colony. Following Anne's death, their daughters Geneviève and Jeanne were raised by their grandparents, Zacharie and Xainte Cloutier. This arrangement was reportedly due to the grandparents' disapproval of Robert's second wife, Marie Chapelier, whom he married in November 1649. Robert Drouin continued to play an active role in the development of New France. He remained in his trade as a brick maker, contributing to the construction of many early buildings in the colony. He also engaged in fur trading and farming. Robert lived to the age of 78, passing away on June 1, 1685, in Château-Richer. The story of Robert Drouin and Anne Cloutier exemplifies the challenges and complexities of life in early New France. Their marriage, arranged when Anne was still a child, reflects the strategies employed by early settlers to establish and strengthen the colony. Despite the hardships they faced, including the loss of children and Anne's early death, their legacy lived on through their surviving daughters and numerous descendants.	tree1

This is the most accepted lineage of all the hypotheses put forth and H. Allen Curtis' extensive research and docuentation seems to confirm this beyond any reasonable doubt. For more details, please read the following PDFs attached to this record: Roger Dudley's Father Proved to be Captain Henry Dudley The Mystery of Thomas Dudley's Paternal Ancestors Marshall Kirk on Thomas Dudley's Paternal Line More notes on Roger Dudley: Capt. Roger Dudley: Roger Dudley (born between 1535 and 1545 -1586?/1590) was an English soldier. Dudley was born in London, England, but some[who?] say that he was baptised in Yardley Hastings, Northamptonshire. However Dudley's parentage has never been satisfactorily established. Genealogist and researcher Marshall Kirk in 1993 published the results of his exhaustive survey of the Dudley families, and came to the conclusion that he was the son of Henry Sutton Dudley. Roger may be the Roger Dudley who was matriculated as pensioner at Christ Church College, Cambridge, in 1566, but left without a degree. It is believed that he married, on June 8, 1575, at Lidlington, Bedfordshire, Susannah (Thorne), herself recorded as having been born on March 5, 1559/60 in Northamptonshire, and baptised at Yardley Hastings, the daughter of Thomas Thorne and Mary Purefoy. He is reported to have been a Captain in (the Earl of Leicester)'s militia, fighting with a commission from Elizabeth I, and under the banner of Henry of Navarre. He is thought to have died at the Battle of Ivry, France in 1590. Yet in 1586, four years earlier, the Reverend Cotton Mather of Boston wrote: "Thomas Dudley's father was Captain Roger Dudley, -- slain in the wars, when -- his son, and one only daughter were very young". The will of Thomas Dorne (Thorne) of Yardley Hastings, Gent., dated 29 Oct 1588, bequeathed "to the children of Susan Dudley, my Daughter, widow, to be equally divided". (S1,S11). Therefore, he was apparently dead by the time of the will of his father-in-law, which was written in 1588, which eliminates the time of the Battle of Ivry as a possibility for his death. It is most probable that he died at the Siege of Zutphen in 1586, having followed a relative, Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester, who was a principal figure in that battle. Marshall K. Kirk suggests that Roger made his home after his father's death with Peter Grey, a "Queen's servant", whose manor of Segenhoe was two miles from Lidlington, (Bedfordshire), where Roger was later married. Roger and Susannah Dudley raised at least five children, listed as: Thomas Dudley (second governor of Massachusetts) Mary Dudley Richard Dudley (b. 1583 – d. 20 Aug 1603) Dorothy Dudley.

Died 1683 aged 77 Rev. Samuel Dudley, was born at Canons Ashley, England, 1606, eldest son of Thomas Dudley, many times elected governor of Massachusetts Colony, and his first wife, Dorothy Yorke. Rev. Samuel Dudley came to America in 1630 with his father Thomas and Governor Winthrop. Rev. Samuel Dudley was baptized on 30 November 1608 in All Saints, Northampton, England. Rev. Samuel Dudley graduated in 1626 from Emmanuel College, Cambridge. He came to New England in 1630 on the Arabella. He lived in Cambridge, Ipswich and Salisbury as a planter and a farmer; called to Exeter, New Hampshire, 30 May 1650 where he settled as minister. He married firstly Mary Winthrop, daughter of Governor John Winthrop and Mary Forth, about 1632. Rev. Samuel Dudley died on 10 February 1682/83 in Exeter, New Hampshire, at the age of 74. http://www.sewellgenealogy.com/p68.htm#i7082 In 1630 came the arrival of John Winthrop and Thomas Dudley of the Massachusetts Bay Company. Aboard the Arabella from Yarmouth, England, Winthrop and Dudley sailed, and after a difficult ten week voyage, they landed on the shores of the New World, with Salem and Boston Harbor being the Arabella's earliest destinations. In 1637, the General Court of Massachusetts granted some 2,200 acres (9 km²) of land, including Huckins Farmland to the first residential Governor Winthrop and Deputy Governor Dudley. The following year, the two men agreed to divide the land so that the parcel south of the two large boulders by the Concord River (Brothers Rocks) belonged to Governor Winthrop and north of the Rocks was to belong to Deputy Governor Dudley. Later, Dudley became governor. Dudley’s son Rev. Samuel Dudley[1] and Winthrop’s daughter Mary were married, thus Brothers Rocks were so named because of this marriage of families. The Two Brothers When Governor Winthrop and his Deputy Thomas Dudley viewed their lands in early 1638, they decided to use two great stones on the site to divide the property. Winthrop claimed the land to one side of one rock; Dudley claimed the land on the other side of the other rock. They named the rocks "The Two Brothers." Over the years, the two men had many differences; however they learned to work together and even considered themselves "brothers" by their children's marriage. The rocks have come to symbolize the men's spirit of cooperation and democracy. The two brothers can still be seen near the banks of the Concord River in the Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge.

The Reverend Samuel Dudley by Barbara Rimkunas This "Historically Speaking" column appeared in the Exeter News-Letter on Friday, May 24, 2013. In Exeter, as in most of New England in the 1600s, the most important man in town was the minister. The Reverend John Wheelwright had organized Exeter in 1638, but had been forced to leave when the townsmen voted to align themselves with the Massachusetts Bay Colony just five years later. Some of Wheelwright’s followers left with him, but many remained and quietly absorbed newcomers who arrived after Wheelwright’s departure. Although the town was able to govern itself with elders and selectmen, not having a spiritual leader weighed heavily on the inhabitants. Wheelwright had hoped that his friend Thomas Rashleigh would accept the job, but Rashleigh refused for his own reasons. A substitute, the Reverend Hatevil Nutter of Dover, was asked to fill-in while the town searched for a new permanent minister. It was a time when money was in short supply, and so the Rev. Nutter was paid not with cash but with service. He owned a tract of land on the Lamprey River and it needed fencing. Every year, the townsmen of Exeter were required to donate time and materials to enclose the property. After five years, the job was done, the Reverend Nutter signed the town book acknowledging the work was done and his services were no longer needed. Fortunately, by that time, June of 1650, the search committee had located a new preacher when the Reverend Samuel Dudley accepted the call to come to Exeter. It had been difficult finding someone to serve the town. There were few trained ministers available and Exeter had little to offer. It was still a fledgling community; the only resources in town were trees and fish. Several times, the committee had made offers to likely candidates, only to see the deal fall through. To attract Dudley, they had to make his commitment worth the privations he would have to endure. In exchange for his services, Mr. Dudley was to receive Wheelwright’s house, garden and cow-house - all of which needed some renovations before he could move in. He would also receive £40 a year as pay. The particulars are written into a contract that was transcribed into the town records, “it is further agreed upon that the old cow-house, which was Mr. Wheelwright’s, shall by the town be fixed up fit for the settling of cattle in, and that the aforesaid pay of £40 a year is to be made in good pay every half year, in corn and English commodities at a price current, as they go generally in the country at the time or times of payment.” There was very little actual money circulating in the colonies during this time and commerce was done with a barter system similar to the Rev. Dudley’s contract. To pay the minister his due, townsmen were taxed based on the number of pipe staves, hogshead staves or bolts that they produced. These were finished pieces of saleable lumber that the people used as currency. The tax rate, as listed in the town records, was, “for every thousand of pipe staves he makes, two shillings, which shall be for the maintenance of the ministry; and for every thousand of hogshead staves, one shilling sixpence; and for every thousand of bolts sold before they be made into staves, four shillings.” All the lumber had to be delivered to the wharf twice annually and would be shipped down the river to Portsmouth or Boston to be exchanged for “English commodities.” The type of goods that were collected was not listed, but one can imagine Mr. Dudley received bolts of cloth, tea and rum for his efforts. Some of these he would no doubt trade around town in exchange for other goods. It was a complicated system - how much was one yard of cloth worth? Perhaps two or three chickens? Dudley came to the town well-recommended from Massachusetts. He was the son of Governor Thomas Dudley and, although not university trained, had studied hard under his father’s tutelage and was considered well-qualified to preach. His first wife, Mary, had been the daughter of Governor John Winthrop. After Mary’s death in Salisbury, Dudley had married Mary Byley of Salisbury. She was his wife when he arrived in Exeter in 1650. After her death, he married a third time, to Elizabeth Smith of Exeter. The succession of wives bore him eighteen children, a sure sign of God’s grace to the people of that era. Quite often during his tenure, the town was incapable of paying him the promised £40. To keep him in town, he was granted land and water rights. At the time of his death, his personal inventory showed him to be a man of means and great commercial instincts. Dudley remained in Exeter and served as minister for thirty-three years. Charles Bell, author of the “History of Exeter, New Hampshire,” comments that, “there was no visible sign of failure of the powers, physical or mental, of Mr. Dudley, as he drew on to old age. When he was sixty-nine, he was appointed upon a committee for the equal distribution of the of the town lands, a duty which no feeble man would have been selected to perform.” He died in Exeter in 1683 and was buried, according to tradition, in the small cemetery on Green Street.

He married Marguerite Judith Doucet on 1647 in Port Royal, Acadia (Nova Scotia), daughter of Germain Doucet and Marie Bourgeois. Notes for Abraham Dugas: He arrived in Port Royal in 1640 with D'Aulnay. He was an Armourer for the King. Was given the designation of Lieutenant General in Acadia. Lived on the shore the Annapolis River, close to the site of Fort Anne, Annapolis Royal. The first Dugas in North America was Abraham Dugas, gunsmith, born about 1616. A native of Toulouse, France, he arrived in Acadia from France in 1640 at the age of 24. Abraham settled at Port Royal where he practiced his trade of gunsmith. He married Marguerite Doucet, the daughter of Germain Doucet, dit Laverdure, and Marie Bourgeois, at Port Royal in 1647. Abraham was kept busy at his trade, because, by the Acadian census of 1671, every man and boy over the age of 13 owned a gun. Not only were the guns necessary for hunting; they were also used in the defense of the colony, which was almost constantly under attack by the British. Abraham Dugas also farmed and held the offices of justice of the peace and syndic (chief of police) at Port Royal. He acquired a fair amount of wealth for the time. Abraham and Marguerite had three sons and five daughters. Their children married into the Melanson, Bourgeois, Arsenault, Bourg (Bourg), Guilbaud (Guilbeaux) and LeBlanc families. The family spread across the colony, and by the second generation there were Dugas at Grand Pré, Cobéquid, Beaubassin and Cap-de-Sable. The wide geographic spread of the family insured that its members would be scattered far and wide by the deportation and its aftermath. Abraham II DUGAS was born in 1616 in de la Chausse, Toulouse, FRANCE. He was christened about 1616 in La Chaussee,Loudun,Vienne,France. He died about 1698 in Port Royal, Acadie.

May 4, 1933 Abraham Dugas, the first name that came to America, was left Toulouse in 1640, to go s'establir Acadia. His ancestors were from Lyonnals. Their original name WAS Crignet. In the seventeenth century, a member of this family was distinguished by prominent military, he was created a Knight of St. Louis and received the king a large area, called the field of Gas. Its crest as it keeps the Dugas of Lyon, was by mouth with the chief two swords in saltire and in quince peak. His family was known as the Gas Crignet. Gradually she abandoned her original name and kept only one of the Gas she later wrote Du Gas, and finally Dugas. In the relations of the Jesuits found written on behalf of the Gas. The quince is on the shield is in memory of the first name. Abraham Dugas was 22 years old when he moved to Port Royal in Acadia. He was a gunsmith's king. In the year 1647, he married a Port-Royal Acadian named Louise Doucet. By his marriage he had several children: we know the names of only six: Claude, Abraham and Martin, Anne Marie and Madeleine. Claude and Abraham are the ancestors of all Dugas of Arcadia and the province of Quebec; they form two branches, the branch of Abraham and the branch of Claude, Martin has remained single. Anne married Charles Bourgeois Port-Royal: it happens to be the maternal ancestor of Dr. Mignault, of Montreal, was the 6th generation, married Madeleine Germain Bourgeois, in 1682, in Port Royal; and is the maternal ancestor of Mirault and Robichaud of Saint-Jacques. Mary married at Port Royal, Charles Melancon; and it is the ancestor of families Melancon of Saint-Jacques and Montreal. There were several alliances between Melancon and Dugas branch. Claude. In the years 1755-56, when the dispersion of the Acadians, many of the branch Dugas of Claude were deported to Boston. Three brothers, Joseph, Daniel and Blaise, son of Claude Dugas and Josette Melancon, were exiled until 1773. Blaise married there and never returned to Canada. Two of his sons Blaise and Firmin and later moved to Saint-Jacques of Bass. One of the girls named Sara Blaise married at Saint-Jacques, Francis Faucher. It is the grandfather of the Rev. Faucher father and his brothers by their grandmother belonged to a branch of Claude Dugas. Joseph and Daniel Dugas, brothers of Blaise, were both located in Saint-Jacques. That is what are all their descendants who then have to scattered in other parishes. Monsignor Dugas, of Cohoes, and his brothers are part of the Clauge and the canon Dugas, of Joliette. The branch of Abraham has only one stem in the province of Quebec. Historical notes on the Dugas family Alexandre Dugas, great grand-son of Abraham, escaped the English fled through the woods, and after a journey of adventure, hardship and misery, has to get to Halifax and Quebec has. In the year 1765, he was pitched in the parish of St-Henri de Mascouche. It's that he died in 1789. He married an Acadian named Josette Brassard, daughter of J. Bte Brassard and Cecile Babin. By his marriage he had three girls and two boys. The eldest son named Francois, born in 1774 in Mascouche, married at St-Jacques of Bass in 1803, Angelique Dupuis. It is the ancestors of the Abbe G. Dugas, a former course of Ste-Anne des Plaines; Father of T. Dugas, cure of Bourbonnais; two Jesuits, Napoleon and Jacques Dugas, and and fire judges J. Dugas, of Joliette. One of the brothers of Alexander Dugas named Charles, after having been long browser between Halifax and Quebec, established in the province of Quebec. He is the great grandfather of the late J. Dugas, of Dawson. R. (The Bulletin of Historical Research)	tree1

The Cathedral contains the only surviving remains of the previous monastic society: a course of red stone visible in the east choir wall that may have been re-used from an earlier building, and two stone ninth - or tenth-century cross-slabs in the Cathedral Museum.

669	I5214	DUPONT	Xainte	1595	13 Jul 1680	0	Xainte Dupont, also known as Sainte or Xaintes, was born around 1596 in Saint-Jean-de-Mortagne, Perche, France. The daughter of Paul-Michel Dupont and Perrine Rousseau, Xainte grew up in a family with three siblings: Renée, Guillaume, and a younger sister who died in infancy. Her early life in France laid the foundation for a remarkable journey that would take her across the Atlantic to become one of the founding mothers of New France. At the young age of 15, Xainte married Michel Lermusier in 1612. Tragically, this union was short-lived as Lermusier passed away shortly after their wedding, leaving no children. This early loss would have been a significant challenge for the young Xainte, but it also paved the way for her future role in the settlement of New France. On July 18, 1616, Xainte married Zacharie Cloutier, a master carpenter, in the parish of Saint-Jean in Mortagne-au-Perche. This union would prove to be one of the most influential in the history of French Canada. Together, they had six children: Zacharie Jr., Jean, Sainte (who died in childhood), Anne, Charles, and Marie-Louise. In 1634, Xainte's life took a dramatic turn when her husband signed a contract with Robert Giffard de Moncel to relocate to New France. Despite initial reservations about the move, Xainte joined her husband and children in this bold venture. Their journey was part of the first wave of Percheron immigration, aimed at expanding the French presence in North America. Upon arrival in New France, the Cloutier family settled in Beauport, near Quebec City. Here, Xainte played a crucial role in establishing their new home while Zacharie worked as a master carpenter, contributing to the construction of essential buildings in the colony. Life in the New World was challenging, but Xainte's resilience and adaptability helped her family thrive in their new environment. Over the years, Xainte witnessed and participated in the growth of the French colony. She raised her children, managed their household, and likely assisted other settlers as they arrived. In 1670, the family sold their property in Beauport and moved to Château-Richer, where they would spend the remainder of their lives. Xainte outlived her husband by three years. Zacharie passed away in 1677, and Xainte followed on July 13, 1680, at the age of 84. She was buried alongside her husband in Château-Richer, leaving behind a legacy that would shape the future of French Canada. Xainte Dupont's importance in Canadian history extends far beyond her role as Zacharie Cloutier's wife. As one of the earliest French women to settle in New France, she played a vital part in establishing the colony and ensuring its continuity through her children and their descendants. Her lineage, reportedly tracing back to Charlemagne, includes many notable figures throughout history. Today, Xainte Dupont is remembered as a matriarch of New France. Her descendants number in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, and include many famous individuals such as Céline Dion, Jack Kerouac, and Madonna. Her life story exemplifies the courage, resilience, and adaptability of the women who helped build the foundations of French-Canadian society.	tree1

673	I10277	D’ALBINI	William	Abt 1160	7 May 1236	0	William d’Albini, a key figure in the baronial opposition against King John of England, was born after 1146 and died on 1 May 1236. He was the son of William d’Albini II and Maud de Senlis. William inherited a substantial lordship, including Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire, which was dramatically sited on a ridge west of Grantham and became the family's home for many generations. William came of age around 1172, following his father's death in 1167 or 1168. He served in various capacities under Kings Henry II and Richard I, including as constable of the castle of the Peak and as sheriff in several counties. His loyalty to the crown was rewarded with lands confiscated from rebels, and he even traveled to Germany in 1194 to greet King Richard upon his release from captivity. Initially a supporter of royal authority, William's stance shifted over time. He was critical of some of King John's policies, particularly regarding military service in Normandy. His eventual support for the baronial cause in 1215, after the barons took over London, was influenced by his disillusionment with John's oppressive rule and his kinship ties with other rebel leaders, including his first cousin Robert FitzWalter and his nephew Robert de Ros. William's military expertise was recognized with his appointment to the Twenty Five, a group of barons responsible for ensuring the king's adherence to the Magna Carta. He played a crucial role in the First Barons' War, notably leading the defense of Rochester Castle against King John in 1215. Despite fierce resistance, he was captured and imprisoned after the castle fell. Following King John's death and the accession of Henry III in 1216, William shifted his allegiance back to the crown. He fought for the royalist side at the Second Battle of Lincoln in 1217 and became a committed supporter of the new regime. His loyalty was rewarded with appointments such as the constable of Sleaford Castle. William d’Albini's later years were marked by continued service to the crown. He participated in campaigns against the Welsh and was present at the final reissue of the Magna Carta and the Charter of the Forest in 1225. He died in 1236 at his manor of Uffington, near Stamford, and was buried at Newstead Abbey, with his heart interred at Belvoir Priory. William d’Albini's life reflects the complex loyalties and political dynamics of his time. His involvement in key historical events like the Magna Carta and the First Barons' War, combined with his military prowess and strategic alliances, cements his place as a significant figure in the history of medieval England.	tree1

675	I3466	EAMES	Anthony	1 Dec 1595	6 Oct 1686	0	Capt. Anthony Eames, the youngest of Thomas and Millicent Eames’ five children, embarked on a transformative journey from England to America in 1633. At about 23, upon his father's death in 1618, Anthony's life took a decisive turn. His active involvement in local affairs as Churchwarden and Constable of Fordington Manor was a prelude to his decision to emigrate, inspired by letters from his sister-in-law Alice's brothers, who were among the early settlers in Charlestown. Sailing on the "Recovery" from Weymouth on March 31, 1633, Anthony, his wife Margery, and their children, including their last child Abigail born around 1632, arrived in New England. They first settled in Charlestown, where Anthony, alongside the Sprague brothers, signed the “Selectmen Government Agreement” in February 1634/5. The family soon moved to Hingham in 1636, receiving a plot of land. Anthony quickly became a prominent figure, representing Hingham in the general court and engaging in community leadership. His military experience in England translated well into his role in New England, where he was appointed Lieutenant in the Hingham Train Band and later Captain. He was actively involved in the defense and development of the town, from signing the charter for the 'Military Company of Massachusetts' in 1638 to operating the first Corn Mill in Hingham in 1643. In 1645, Anthony was central to a controversial incident in Hingham, leading to community divisions and even affecting the political climate in Boston. Despite this, he continued his service, moving to Marshfield Hills in Plymouth Colony in 1651, where he purchased land and became a respected member of the community. He served as a deputy to the general court and was involved in significant projects like demarcating the boundary between Massachusetts Bay and Plymouth Colonies. Capt. Anthony Eames' dedication to public service was recognized in 1659 when he petitioned for compensation for his efforts in running the boundary line, a request that was honored by the Massachusetts Bay Legislature. Margery, his steadfast companion, passed away in 1662 in Marshfield. Anthony lived until 1686, reaching the age of 91.	tree1

683	I7274	EDGAR	I	943	8 Jul 975	0	Edgar was crowned at Bath and anointed with his wife Ælfthryth, setting a precedent for a coronation of a queen in England itself. Edgar's coronation did not happen until 973, in an imperial ceremony planned not as the initiation, but as the culmination of his reign (a move that must have taken a great deal of preliminary diplomacy). This service, devised by Dunstan himself and celebrated with a poem in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, forms the basis of the present-day British coronation ceremony. Known as a reformer. Edgar oversaw realignment of county boundaries that woudl endure for more than 1000 years (until 1974) and also reformed weights and measures and the coinage.	tree1

In 1650, they were living in York where Robert had received a grant, and in 1661 they moved to Kittery on the side of the creek running into Braveboat Harbor.

686	I7277	EDMUND	I	921	26 May 946	0	Shortly after his proclamation as king, he had to face several military threats. King Olaf III Guthfrithson conquered Northumbria and invaded the Midlands; when Olaf died in 942, Edmund reconquered the Midlands.[2] In 943, Edmund became the god-father of King Olaf of York. In 944, Edmund was successful in reconquering Northumbria.[3] In the same year, his ally Olaf of York lost his throne and left for Dublin in Ireland. Olaf became the king of Dublin as Amlaíb Cuarán and continued to be allied to his god-father. In 945, Edmund conquered Strathclyde but ceded the territory to King Malcolm I of Scotland in exchange for a treaty of mutual military support.[3] Edmund thus established a policy of safe borders and peaceful relationships with Scotland. During his reign, the revival of monasteries in England began. Died at age 25 in a skirmish while attempting to defend his steward from a thief named Leofa.	tree1
687	I7280	EDWARD		874	17 Jul 924	0	Edward is highly regarded by historians. According to Nick Higham: "Edward the Elder is perhaps the most neglected of English kings. He ruled an expanding realm for twenty-five years and arguably did as much as any other individual to construct a single, south-centred, Anglo-Saxon kingdom, yet posthumously his achivements have been all but forgotten." In the view of F. T. Wainwright: "Without detracting from the achievements of Alfred, it is well to remember that it was Edward who reconquered the Danish Midlands and gave England nearly a century of respite from serious Danish attacks.	tree1

690	I7179	EGBERT		771	839	0	Little is known of the first 20 years of Egbert's reign, but it is thought that he was able to maintain the independence of Wessex against the kingdom of Mercia, which at that time dominated the other southern English kingdoms. In 825 Egbert defeated Beornwulf of Mercia, ended Mercia's supremacy at the Battle of Ellandun, and proceeded to take control of the Mercian dependencies in southeastern England. In 829 Egbert defeated Wiglaf of Mercia and drove him out of his kingdom, temporarily ruling Mercia directly. Later that year Egbert received the submission of the Northumbrian king at Dore. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle subsequently described Egbert as a bretwalda, or "Ruler of Britain". Egbert was unable to maintain this dominant position, and within a year Wiglaf regained the throne of Mercia. However, Wessex did retain control of Kent, Sussex, and Surrey; these territories were given to Egbert's son Æthelwulf to rule as a subking under Egbert. When Egbert died in 839, Æthelwulf succeeded him; the southeastern kingdoms were finally absorbed into the kingdom of Wessex after Æthelwulf's death in 858.	tree1

698	I2810	ELLIS	Jonathan P	1 Apr 1790	18 Feb 1857	0	How many Jonathan Ellises are there? In 1810 there was a Jonathan Ellis in Rochester, and none in Maine. In 1820, there is no Jonathan in Rochester, but one in Rome, ME, living next door to Thomas Rankins, Samuel Bickford and Ephraim Mosher. Jonathan lived in Rome, or Waterville, at least through 1850. From 1820 on he lives near the Rankins family. The IGI shows Jonathan's spouse was Mary Jane Rankins. She is called Jane in the 1850 and 1860 census. We can only assume that Jonathan first married Jane (Jenny) Hartford, then married Mary Jane Rankins, though there is no clear break in the children's ages, nor is there any death or marriage record. Of course, there could have been two Jonathans! This Jonathan also could have been the son or grandson, of the Jonathan whom we have listed as this Jonathan's father. In 1830 they lived next door to George W. Mosher and Daniel Stevens and two doors from Joseph Rankins and Nathaniel Tuttle. In 1820, a man born between 1765 and 1794 lived with them. Could this have been Jonathan's father, Jonathan?
