ELIOT is the diminutive of Elye or Elias, the -et and -ot endings having been introduced by the Normans. The name was often spelled Aliot. The Norman knight, William de Aliot, who came to England with William the Conqueror in 1066 is the accredited ancestor of Lord Heathfield, the Earls of Minto and St. Germans, and Sir William Francis Eliot of Stobe, Baronet. The first seat of the family was in Devon, earliest records indicating that they were of the gentry, people of good family and social position.

Bennett Eliot resided in Nazeing, co. Essex, England, from 1606 until his death, and was buried there Nov. 21, 1621, leaving a substantial estate. His will was executed Nov. 5, 1621, prob. March 28, 1628. It is believed that he was a descendant of the Eliots of Cornwall (including the Earls of St. Germans). Before 1606 he lived at Widford, county Hertford, where he married Letitia "Letteye" Aggar Oct. 30, 1598, in the Church of St. John the Baptist. She was buried March 16, 1620. All of their children settled in the New World.

Chosen deacon 27 November 1636 [ BChR 10], and ordained in that office 17 May 1640 [ BChR 29]. (As deacon Eliot frequently acted in a fiduciary capacity, mostly in settling estates, but his activities in 1640, along with WILLIAM COLBRON , another Boston deacon, in behalf of Griffith Bowen are probably as a result of his position in the church [ Lechford 258, 261-62], and his receipt of money for the church on 20 September 1642 was certainly in that capacity [ WP 4:354].) Elected elder of the Boston church, 12 September 1650 [ BChR 319].
FREEMAN: 6 March 1631/2 [ MBCR 1:367].

ESTATE: Granted by Boston selectmen (including himself) "the little marsh lying against Charles River with a little hill of upland ground, near the middest thereof, and compassed on three sides with highland ground, allowing out of his allotment at Mount Woollystone seven acres for five. The which he afterwards allowed, and it laid out for part of his brother Francis Elyott's allotment at the Mount," 16 July 1637 [ BTR 1:19].
On 2 December 1644 Boston selectmen granted liberty "unto Deacon Eliot to set out his barn six or eight feet into the street at the direction of Deacon Colbron" [ BTR 1:82].
In the Boston Book of Possessions Jacob Eliot held one parcel: one house and garden [ BBOP 34].
Granted "the swamp that joineth to his allotment at Muddy River next to Cotton Flax house by the common field," 26 February 1648/9 [ BTR 1:93].
In his will, dated 28 April 1651 and proved 20 November 1651, Jacob Eliot bequeathed to "my son John Eliot the house and backside adjoining to Edward Rainsford with the use of half the barn with all the land at Muddy River except the ten acres purchased of Jonathan Negoos and this to have at his day of marriage and during the time of his single estate to live with his mother"; to "my daughter Hana Eliot the house that was John Cranwell's with all the backside belonging to it if she shall marry before her mother's death"; "all the rest of my estate I do give unto my wife during the time of her natural life if she remain in her widowhood all that time and if God so dispose of her in marriage again then my will is that the whole estate shall be valued and a third part shall be set out for my wife and the rest to be equally divided between them my son Jacob having a double portion out of it and my daughters to receive their portion at the day of marriage or at the age of eighteen years"; "my son Jacob shall have his double portion out of my now dwelling house and orchard with the land on the neck if he so desire it he resigning up that house and land which was given him at his day of marriage"; witnessed by William Colbron and James Penn (deacons of the church) [ SPR Case #113; NEHGR 4:53].
The inventory of the estate of Jacob Eliot was taken 13 June 1651, but was untotalled; it included Ð331 10s. in real estate: "one dwelling house & barn and orchard," Ð100; "one house bought of John Cranwell with the yard to it," Ð24; "one house bought of Jarat Bourne with the yard to it," Ð20; "12 acres & half of land," Ð60; "at Roxbury Gate 13 acres," Ð35; and "the land at Muddy River," Ð92 10s. [ SPR Case #113].
On 27 May 1652 the General Court "in answer to the petition of Margery Eliot, widow, for the confirmation of the sale of a certain parcel [of] land, sold by the deacons of the church of Boston, administrators to Sam[uel] Sherman, unto Jacob Eliot, deceased," ordered that the matter be put over to the next session of the court [ MBCR 3:274].
On 31 May 1652 seven men, in seven separate deeds, sold land "at Roxbury Gate" or at Muddy River to "Margery Elliott of Boston aforesaid widow, for the use of her children by Elder Jacob Elljott her husband": Mr. William Hibbins of Boston, five acres; Elder James Penn of Boston, five acres "part marsh and part upland"; Jonathan Negoos of Boston, "five acres and half of salt marsh"; Robert Walker of Boston, five acres of salt marsh; Richard Tapping of Boston, twenty-seven acres of upland; Thomas Grubb of Boston, six acres of salt marsh; and Thomas Marrett of Cambridge, "a house and backside in Boston ... with two acres of land adjoining," and ten acres of upland at Muddy River [ SLR 1:211-12].
Prior to a county court held at Boston on 9 May 1661 "Margery Elliot relict of the late Jacob Elliot" petitioned that she had with the advice of the overseers of the will "married two of her daughters & delivered the sum of Ð50 apiece to their husbands in order to their portions," but that she found that she had no power to divide the estate, and that she therefore wished to be named administratrix; Margery Eliot made her mark to this petition, and consent was also given by Jacob Eliot, Theophilus Frary "for myself & wife," Susanna Eliot and Mehitable Eliot, each of whom signed [ NEHGR 30:205-06]. (The two daughters whom the widow "had married" were Susanna and Mehitable; on the date of the petition the marriages had been agreed to and the marriage portions promised, but the marriages had not actually taken place.) On 14 October 1662 "Seth Perry of Boston, tailor, & Mehitable, daughter to the late Jacob Eliot & Margery his wife, now wife to the said Seth Perry," gave a receipt for the Ð50 they had received [ NEHGR 30:206].
In her will, dated 31 October 1661 and proved 7 November 1661, "Margery Elliott, widow," bequeathed "out of my thirds which is two hundred pounds" to "my son Jacob" Ð50; to "my daughter Hannah Frayry" Ð10; to "my daughter Susanna" Ð20; to "my daughter Mehitable" Ð20; to "my daughter Sarah & my son Asaph" Ð40 apiece; to "my five grandchildren" Ð20 to be divided equally; to "my two sons Jacob & Asaph ... the house and lands & they to pay the legacies"; Jacob to be executor [ SPR 1:376].

On the same day an inventory was taken of "the remaining stock of cattle & land of Jacob Eliot Senior formerly deceased which was designed to pay the portions of the several children"; the total was Ð280, including "thirteen acres of land about Roxbury Gate" valued at Ð78 [ SPR 4:81].

1108 A Richard Harrington arrived in Charlestown, Massachusetts in 1643. He took the Freeman's Oath on 26 May 1647. This Richard was also Baptized in 1626 at St. Botolph's, London, England. Could this be the same man? As he's not connected in any of the well documented Harrington lines.

Richard is mentioned by the Harrington lines but over looked, as the following shows:

The Harrington Family in America Pg. 6

"Mr. Bond mentioned the name of Richard Harrington who lived there as early as 1643, and says that he has failed to discover any record of the marriage of Richard Harrington, or that he left any children him surviving. It may, therefore, be taken as reasonably certain that the Harrington family of America started with Robert Harrington of Watertown as the original ancestor."

The inability to find a marriage record could be explained by the fact that Richard was married in England. And, if he is the father of our lines he certainly didn't use the proper spelling of Harrington. Mr. Bond also wouldn't have found any records of surviving children either as they would have already adopted what has come to be our surname of Harnden.

1124 Abigail Harnden and the Sons of the Witches:

Note the year of Abigail's birth 1692.

Do you know what happened in 1692?

The Salem Witch Trials were going on.

I just found that ironic considering who Abigail married.

Abigail's first husband was Jonathan Nurse b. 4 Mar 1691/1692 in Reading, Middlesex, Massachusetts d. 26 Nov 1717 Wakefield, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Jonathan was the Grandson of Rebecca (Towne) Nurse. They married on 27 Jan 1713 in Reading, Middlesex, Massachusetts

Abigail's second husband was Capt. Daniel Eames b. 10 Jan 1697 in Woburn, Middlesex, Massachusetts d. 1781 in Haverhill, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Daniel was the Grandson of Rebecca (Blake) Eames. They married on 8 Mar 1720 in Reading, Middlesex, Massachusetts.

Here's the even more ironic part. Both of Abigail's husband's Grandmothers were tried as witches during the Salem Witch Trials. Rebecca (Towne) Nurse was hanged on 19 Jul 1692. Rebecca (Blake) Eames was jailed 1 Aug 1692, condemned on 17 Sep 1692 and reprieved and released in March of 1693.


The story of Rebecca (Towne) Nurse:


Rebecca Nurse: A Tragedy of Injustice

Author: Allan Gilbertson


Rebecca (Towne) Nurse was baptized at Yarmouth, England, on February 21, 1621/22, the daughter of William Towne and Joanna Blessing. She came to Salem with her family in 1640. In about 1645, she married Francis Nurse, who was born in England between 1618 and 1620. Francis was a tray maker who probably also made other wooden household items. He was Salem's constable in 1672.

In 1692, the "black cloud of the witchcraft delusion descended upon Salem Village." Rebecca was a 71-year-old invalid who had raised a family of eight children. The Nurse family had been involved in several land disputes which could have caused ill-feeling among some of the residents of Salem. Nevertheless, most of her contemporaries sympathized with her. The dignity and nobility of her character which she showed throughout the trials undoubtedly helped turn public opinion against the trials. Her story is well-known, and has been written in many historical and fictionalized accounts of the trials, including Arthur Miller's play The Crucible.

Soon after the first of the women had been accused of witchcraft, Rebecca Nurse discovered that her name had also been mentioned as a suspect. She is reported to have said "I am innocent as the child unborn, but surely, what sin hath God found out in me unrepented of that He should lay such an affliction on me in my old age." On March 23 a warrant was issued for her arrest upon the complaint of Edward and John Putnam. (The Putnam family was among those that had been involved in land disputes with Rebecca and her husband.)

As in other cases, Rebecca's examination by judges was accompanied by "great noyses by the afflicted." She repeated her assertion that she was innocent but was committed to the Salem jail. Needless to say, the procedure was a travesty of justice. Belief in witchcraft was widespread in New England at that time, but even in that climate it is surprising that convictions could occur as a result of hearsay, slander and hysteria.

Rebecca was indicted on June 2 and subjected to a physical examination by a jury of women. They found what a majority of them believed to be a mark of the devil -- although two of the women disagreed, saying the mark was due to natural causes. Rebecca asked that others examine her before she was brought to trial, but the request was denied.

Rebecca Nurse was tried on June 29, 1692. Her accusers included the four young girls who initiated the witchcraft hysteria in Salem, Rev. Parris and several members of the Putnam family. Rebecca's son, son-in-law and daughter-in -law spoke in her defense. In addition, some 40 members of Salem Village signed a declaration defending her character.

The jury at first returned a verdict of "not guilty." Some who had been accused confessed to practicing witchcraft in hopes that their death sentences would be dropped. One of these women, Goody Hobbs, had muttered "she is one of us." In light of this the judge asked that the verdict be reconsidered. When Rebecca was asked what Goody Hobbs had meant, she didn't answer. Later she said that she had not heard the question, as she was hard of hearing, and that "one of us" had meant that they were imprisoned together. The Governor granted a reprieve, but when Rebecca's accusers renewed their outcry it was withdrawn.

On July 3, Rebecca Nurse was excommunicated -- "abandoned to the devil and eternally damned." On July 19 she was driven in a cart with four other women to Gallows Hill where she was hung. Tradition says that at midnight Francis Nurse, his sons and sons-in-law found Rebecca's body in the common grave where it had been flung and carried it home for a proper burial.

One of Rebecca's sisters, Mary (Towne) Estey, was also hung on charges of being a witch. The last of the executions in Salem took place in September 1692. In all, 20 people were put to death (including five men), and eight others died in jail. The trials ended perhaps because too many people of good reputation had been accused. By 1703 the General Court made payments to the heirs of the victims and 25 pounds was paid to the heirs of Rebecca Nurse. In 1706, Ann Putnam, one of the original four hysterical young women, made a written statement of remorse. She said that the devil had deceived her into accusing innocent people and mentioned "Goodwife Nurse" in particular. In 1712 the pastor who had cast Rebecca out of the church formally cancelled the excommunication. 
Harnden, Abigail (I6777)
 
1125 About the year 1400, a common Draper ancestor came to England from the
Netherlands, Normandy or Brittany. The Drapers are native of
Yorkshire, England, and they were of or near Heptonstall. They were
large land holders in Yorkshire as early as 1400. Undoubtedly, all of
the Drapers in that area descended from William, John and Henry le
Drapour.

To be a draper means to deal in cloth. A clothier and fuller was
one who manufactured cloth and fulled it ready to be made into
clothes. He was a weaver of clothes by means of a loom and used water
power for the fulling. The wool or flax was raised by him and carded,
spun and weaved into cloth, sent to the clothier's mill to be fulled,
colored, shorn and finished, ready on the return to be made into
clothes.

Thomas Draper was a clothier and fuller.


From: GENEALOGICAL AND PERSONAL MEMOIRS RELATING TO THE FAMILIES OF BOSTON AND EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS, William Richard Cutter, Editor. Lewis Historical Publishing Co., New York, 1910. Page 2286.

"Thomas Draper, father [grandfather] of the American immigrant, lived and died in the parish of Heptonstall, vicarage of Halifax, Yorkshire, England. He himself was a clothier by trade. Children: Thomas, John, William, James (mentioned below [see James Draper "Notes"]), Mary, Martha. All remained in England excepting James."

From: "The English Ancestry of James Draper" by Clarence Almon Torrey, TAG, Vol. XV (1938/39), p 242:

"....It is unfortunate that the volume containing the earliest records of Heptonstall parish was lost or destroyed many years ago. The volume doubtless contained important records relating to the Draper and related families.

"The ancestry of Thomas Draper, James Draper's grandfather, can probably be found by securing further information from English records, including probate and land records. Many residents of Yorkshire held land by leases which could be transferred to other persons. Information about the leases and transfers of holdings is readily secured by searching the records at Wakefield. The writer has not made any plans for continuing the search and no further report from him about the Drapers of Yorkshire may be expected."

From The American Genealogist, Vol. XV, 1938-1939, p 237:

"21 June 1603. Will of Thomas Draper of Stoneslacke in Heptonstall:

was admitted into the First Church of Dedham on 30 Jul 1641. He was
made a freeman on 18 May 1642.

Leave was granted in 1683 by the Town of Dedham for Nathaniel Whiting
and his son-in-law James Draper to erect a fulling mill. The mill
also was used as a saw mill.

It was on the date of his death that the town empowered an agreement
between Nathaniel Whiting and James Draper, Jr. to build a fulling
mill.

(The date of their marriage is given in the town records as Nov. 4, not March 4, as the Dictionary gives it.)

1129 Adam is the Father [and Patriach] of all of the human family. He is the ancestor of all persons who ever lived on this earth.
In the pre-existenct life, he was known as Michael the Archangle. When Lucifer and one-third of the host of heaven rebeled againest the Father, Michael led the righteous forces in the war in heaven. He participated with Christ in the creation of the earth.
Adam was placed in the Garden of Eden with a body created in the image of God. When he and Eve fell from the Garden, their bodies became mortal and subject to death. The fall of Adam, by introducing sin and death into the world, made necessary the mission of a Savior to overcome both sin and death.
[The aggregate of the scriptures certifies that his transgression in the
Garden of Eden, although designated as a "fall," was necessary to the
advancement and spiritual progress of humanity on the earth (Adam fell that
men might be; and men are, that they might have joy.- 2 Nephi 2:25). - Bible
Dictionary p 604].
One of the greatest spiritual gathering of all the ages took place in the Valley of Adam-ondi-Ahman shortly before the death of Adam some five thousand years ago. The Lord has revealed:
Three years previous to the death of Adam, he Called Seth, Enos,
Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, who were all high priests, with the residue of his
posterity who were righteous, into the valley of Adam-ondi-Ahman, and there
bestowed upon them his last blessing.
And the Lord appeared unto them, and they rose up and blessed Adam, and they
called him Michael, the prince, the archangel.
And the Lord administered comfort unto Adam, and said unto him: I have set
thee to be at the head; a multitude of nations shall come of thee, thou art
a prince over them forever.
And Adam stood up in the midst of the congergation; and, notwithstanding he
was bowed down with age, being full of the Holy Ghost, perdicted whatsoever
should befall his posterity unto the lastest generation. (D&C 107:53-57) Shortly before the Second Coming of Christ, Adam will again visit the earth and preside over an important council at Adam-ondi-Ahman. There he will receive an accounting from those who have held the keys of authority in the various dispensations. Christ will then come to the gathering and receive back the keys, thus taking one of the final steps leading to His coming in glory and personal reign upon the earth.(Royal Ancestors of Some LDS Families, by Michael Call, p 251 - inserts added by Gerald B. Haycock)

Yes. This was only recently rediscovered. There is a surviving charter in which Guillaume names his wife Emma and mother Adelaide, and there is every reason to think this was the same Adelaide, known to have married "Count Raimond". The chronology is aufully long to have William a son of Raymond Pons as well, and the near-contemporary Roda Codex gives Raymond Pons no son William, but does give him a son Raymond. These make it evident that a reworking is in order.

I don't think there is enough information to provide such a date. Certainly both of them you give are nothing more than guesses, and need to be adjusted. As to William's birth, this date is wrong, based on his mistaken placement as son of Raymond Pons. A more recent guess is about 975.

was a member of royalty, nobility or aristocracy in Europe.


Isabel (or Elisabeth), widow of Robert (de BEAUMONT), COUNT OF MEULAN and 1st EARL OF LEICESTER (died 5 June 1118), daughter of Hugh DE CR?PI (styled "the Great"), COUNT OF VERMANDOIS (younger son of HENRY I, KING OF FRANCE), by Adelaide, daughter and heir of Herbert, COUNT OF VERMANDOIS and VALOIS. Isabel survived him and with the consent of her son the 3rd Earl gave the church of Dorking to Lewes priory. She died probably before July 1147. [Complete Peerage XII/1:495-6)
-----------------------------------------------------
Isabel de Vermandois, Countess of Leicester (c.1081 ?- 13 Feb 1131) was distantly related to English kings, Norman dukes, and Flanders counts. By Carolingian ancestry, she was also related to almost every major nobleman in Western Europe. Nevertheless, Isabel was very much her own person.

Elizabeth married Meulan around aged 9 or 11.But the old count was at least 35 years her senior ... Yes. Unusual even for this time period. But he was a nobleman of some significance in France, who inherited lands from his maternal uncle Henry, Count of Meulan. He also fought his first battle with distinction at Hastings when he was only 16. He didn't have an English earldom when they got married, but his younger brother was Henry de Beaumont, 1st Earl of Warwick.

The marriage produced several children, including most notably two sons who were twins (born 1104), and thus remarkable in both surviving and both becoming important noblemen. They are better known tohistorians of this period as the Beaumont twins, or as Waleran de Beaumont, Count of Meulan and his younger twin Robert Bossu (the Humpback) or Robert de Beaumont, 2nd Earl of Leicester. (Readers of Ellis Peters' Cadfael historical mystery series will find both twins mentioned frequently). Another notable child of this marriage was Elisabeth or Isabel de Beaumont, one of the youngest mistresses of Henry I of England and later mother (by her first marriage) of Richard Strongbow.
Some contemporaries were surprised that the aging Count of Meulan (b circa 1049/1050) was able to father so many children, given how busy he was with turmoil in England and Normandy from 1102 to 1110 (or later) and acting as Henry I's unofficial minister. One explanation is offered below; another might simply be an indication of his good health and energy (expended mostly in dashing from one troublespot in Normandy to England back to Normandy).

William II of England died suddenly in a purported hunting accident, and was hastily succeeded not by the expected heir but by the youngest brother Henry. This seizure of the throne led to an abortiveinvasion by the older brother Duke Robert of Normandy, followed by an uneasy truce between the brothers, followed by trouble in both England and Normandy for some time (stirred up by Duke Robert, andby an exiled nobleman Robert of Bellême, 3rd Earl of Shrewsbury). Finally, Henry invaded Normandy and in the Battle of Tinchebray (September 28, 1106) destroyed organized opposition to his takeover of Normandy and imprisoned his ineffectual older brother for his lifetime. Meulan and his brother Warwick were apparently supporters of Henry during this entire period, and Meulan was rewarded with theearldom of Leicester in 1103. By 1107, Meulan was in possession of substantial lands in three domains. In 1111, he was able to revenge himself on the attack on his seat Meulan by Louis VI of France. He avenged himself by harrying Paris.

Elizabeth, apparently tired of her aging husband at some point. The historian Planche says (1874) she was seduced by or fell in love with William de Warenne (c. 1071-11 May 1138).It was said he wanted a royal bride, and Elizabeth met his requirements, even though she was also another man's wife.

In 1115, Warenne abducted the Countess to hide their long-standing affair But eventually, the old Count of Meulan died -- supposedly of chagrin and mortification from publicly humiliation -- at the Abbey of Preaux, Normandy on 5 June 1118 So Elizabeth got to marry her lover after all.
Elizabeth and Warenne had several children -- all born during her marriage to Meulan. One daughter was born when they were living out of wedlock (1115-1118). It is unclear if it was Ada de Warenne.

The later life of Elizabeth de Vermandois is not known.

The original Vermandois arms were "checky or and sable" but there was no black tincture in early medieval heraldry until sable was discovered, being the crushed fur of this animal. A very deep indigo was used instead which faded into blue so the Vermandois arms became "checky or and azure".The Vermandois arms were inherited by the earls of Warenne and Surrey, the Newburgh earls of Warwick, the Beauchamp earls of Warwick and Worcester and the Clifford earls of Cumberland.
