| 3901 | There is a mention of him in "The Certificates of the Commissioners Appointed to Survey the Chantries, Guilds, Hospitals, etc." "THE DEANEEV OF RIPON. 367 Goodes, onjamentes, and plate pertenynge to the aarao, as by J the inventory appei'^'th, viz : goods nii, and plate nil.

|
| 3902 | There is a possibility that this was the Eden Ward, widow, buried in Thornton Watlass in 1620. | HUTCHINSON, Edena (I7646)
|
| 3903 | There is also a record of a John Langstaff baptized 24 Aug 1767 in Richmond, son of Thomas. Are these the same person? | Source (S1148)
|
| 3904 | There is an Ellen Warde listed in the 1673 Hearth Tax, but this would mean that she is the head of a household. It's possible that the Simon Ward I have as her husband who died in 1790 is actually her adult son and that her husband Simon predeceased her. Only problem with this theory is that Simon Ward said in 1682 that he'd been a smelter for 20 years. If Ellen had a son Simon born as early as 1659 he would be only 3 in 1662. | Source (S418)
|
| 3905 | There is an entry in "Memorials of the Church of St Peter and Wilfrid' under Death Offerings: "Xpofer Ward, for the mort. of Wydow Ward, l0s. [nota pro consimili] = note for the like | Source (S1077)
|
| 3906 | There is no documentation to probe that this William Berry was a son of Caleb. Only basis for speculation is that his birth date and location are right and the name William would make sense because of Caleb's father possibly being William also. William does not show up in either the 1891 or 1901 census for NS or NB | BERRY, William (I2356)
|
| 3907 | There is no documentation to prove that this Phoebe married William, son of Robert Berry. This is only entered as a possible scenario. There was a "William Berry and wife Phebe" mentioned in a Cumberland County land transaction in 1802. | UNKNOWN, Phebe (I2360)
|
| 3908 | There is no existing record of a John Warde who dies in Skelton-on-Ure. I have only entered it based on the will of John's aunt Joan which requested that John receive "a tenement at Skelton" upon the death of Nicholas Warde her brother.As well as the will of Joan (Tunstall) Ward, wife of Sir Roger as follows:"I will that my son, John Warde, gyfe to Roger, his basterd son, x marke, whych x marke he awe me for corn and catall, what tyme as he thinkes most necessary to the saide chyld."-"I make my doghter, Dame Margaret Norton, and my son, John Warde, my executors, and my son, Sir John Norton, supervisor; and Iwill that all the resydew of my godes be disposed for the well of mysoule." Proved March 23, 1507-8.Also,"1514, November 15. — Henry VIII granted to "oure humble servant John Warde" the office of "baner berer before Saint Wilfride" at Ripon, with a fee of ^5 a year. (This probably refers to John son of Sir Roger Warde, and he may be the John Warde who was plaintiff in two Fines relating to property in Great Ouseburn in 1502 and 1505. | Source (S1079)
|
| 3909 | There is no proof of date of death. I only based this date on his wife Mary's death record in 1645 which does not call her a widow, so I'm assuming John died after her. | Source (S1054)
|
| 3910 | There is some evidence that points to Barbara being born at Marske. Possibly a daughter of Anthony Coates of Orgate. If so, she likely inherited Orgate House from him. | COATES, Barbara (I7256)
|
| 3911 | There occurred at Avondale, the death of Mrs. Marsters, at the house of her on, Captain Silas Marsters, on Friday, 30 ult. Mrs. Marsters was seventy-six years of age and leaves a family of four sons. | HARVIE, Sarah Alice (I9241)
|
| 3912 | There passed away November 29th, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. George Mosher, 293 Brunswick St., Halifax, Samuel Cochrane, aged 83 years. Mr. Cochrane had always enjoyed good health and was very active. He came to see his brother John, who is ill at the Payzant Memorial Hospital and contracted a cold which developed into congestion and pleural-pneumonia, to which he succumbed. The deceased was of a very cheerful disposition and well liked by all who knew him. Mrs. Cochrane predeceased him over six years, since which time Mr.Cochrane has lived with his daughter Blanche, in Halifax, where he had made a host of friends. The deceased is survived by six daughters, four sons, forty-six grand-children and fifty-seven great grand-children; also two sisters and two brothers. The funeral services were held December 1st from the home of his son George, and was conducted by Rev. C.C. Walls of St. Croix. The hymns sung were, "Jesus Saviour, Pilot Me", Safe in the Arms of Jesus, and "Abide With Me". Interment in St. Croix Cemetery. | COCHRANE, Samuel (I208)

|
| 3918 | There was a Roger Robinson in Amherst, son of Thomas Robinson. Appears on a list of the men above 21 years of age,within the Township of Cumberland 30th day of Aug.,1785. Roger Robinson is listed among the 'Town Officers' in River Philip for 1789. Roger appears in the poll tax for 1791 for the Township of Amherst. Roger and his son Thomas are mentioned in the will of Thomas Sr. in 1793 along with his wife Ann. | ROBINSON, Roger (I3420)
|
| 3919 | There was a William Corbit mentioned in an article on the lead mining in Marske. Looks like William decided to name his children after Timothy Hutton. as follows: "In 1608 Sir Timothy Hutton granted a lease to William Corbet, Katherine his wife (daughter of Arthur Phillip) and Hutton Corbet, for faithful service "for the seatte and soyle of the laite decayed lead mylne or smelting houses in the territories of Marske laite in the tenure of Richard Willance of Richmond, deceased." | CORBETT, Timothy (I7302)

| 3923 | There was also an Addison Longstaff born 1 Apr 1774 in Romaldkirk, illegitimate son of Margaret Langstaff. | LONGSTAFF, William Addison (I10133)
|
| 3924 | There was an Elizabeth Hutchinson 'of Whaston' in the Kirkby Ravensworth Burial records, July 19, 1752. This is possibly the same person and would explain why there are no records of any children born to Bartholomew Hutchinson. Also Elizabeth's father John Ward had a copper smelting mill at Whashton. Maybe Bartholomew worked there for his father-in-law. | Source (S406)

| 3928 | These Hunters came from County Ayr, Scotland, where they were hunters by occupation-hence the name. Due to religious persecution in Scotland, the Hunters moved to Northern Ireland. David Hunter came to Nova Scotia from Aghadowey, in Londonderry County, Ireland with his wife and six children. Two more children were born in Nova Scotia. David Hunter's wife was Margaret Martin, daughter of Lodowick Martin of Ulster. Their ship was bound for Philadelphia but was wrecked off Sable Island, not far from Nova Scotia. Another vessel 'The Good Ship Blessing' came to the rescue and took the Hunter family and other passengers to Halifax. The Hunter family settled on the Wentworth Road near Windsor (Hants County) and lived there from 1769 until 1785. They then moved to Ardoise Hill, at St. Croix. | HUNTER, David Fleming (I3538)
|
| 3929 | They (Martin & Polly) settled at Goose River (Linden) Cumberland County where he was the first white settler. His Grant dated 1809. They had six sons and three daughters. (Miss Lucy Fowler Logan, sister of Senator Hance J. Logan, who are descendants of Martin Hunter and Polly Berry, has furnished me with the following information of the early Hunters, which I have incorporated in the Berry record. I will here give it in abreviated form. The vessel in which the families of Allison, McCaffay, Hunter, Miller, etc. came to this country sailed from Londonderry, Ireland in 1769 for Philadelphia, on the way the vessel got into trouble at Sable Island, and the passengers were landed at Halifax. Among the passengers were David Hunter and his family from Aphadowny, Ireland, (his grandfather came from Scotland), David Hunter was married in Londonderry, Ireland to Margaret, daughter of Ledewick Martin of Ulster. They settled at Ardoise Hill, near Windsor, N.S. where he took out a grant of 1850 acres in 1785 from King George III. They lived to good old age and were buried in Windsor, N.S. David Hunter and Margaret Martin had six sons and two daughters. | HUNTER, Martin (I2256)

|
| 3931 | They didn't have children of their own, but on the death of Henry's brother, Jabez, he and Ann took Jabez' twin sons to raise. They were James Caldwell Walker and John West Walker born 29 May 1858. | BOND, Ann Hull (I1502)
|
| 3932 | They must have divorced some time after the birth of their last child because William's obituary says Elizabeth was his first wife and he had two wives after her. | Source (S2102)

| 3943 | This could be an ancestor:: On Dec 15, 1526 in Minskip, a Richard Warde, Labourer, Brother of John Warde was loading oat sheaves onto a cart ('plaustrum') pulled by four oxen and two horses of John Warde, in a field in Minskip. He was standing on the cart, when the front part of the cart broke and the oxen and horses became separated from the cart. Richard fell into Minskip Beck and the oats from the falling cart fell on top of him so that he could not get out of water and he drowned. One scenario could be that the above John Warde is the one who was left a 'tenement in Skelton on Ure' in his grandmother's will. | WARD, Thomas (I9066)

Jurors Miles Broadley, John Ridley, William Thistlethwaite, James Ridley, John Fawcett, George Bows, Henry Calvert, Francis Walker, William Walton, John Pearson, Benjamin Brockhill, Isaac Spence, John Scott. Witness Elizabeth Ward, Thomas Simpson, Dr Metcalf, Hannah ward Verdict Accidental injury to head at birth, daughter of Hannah Ward singlewoman. this is a newborn child that was buried clandestinely in the church yard at bellerby. From enquiries made it appears that Hannah Ward , single woman, residing in Bellerby is the mother of it. She states that on Thursday evening last she was unexpectedly confined whilst alone in the house and was unable to get any assistance and the child was dead when it was born. it further appears that Dr Metcalf was called in the next day he saw the child and examined the navels tring , it appeared to ahve been broken and the woman Ward said it had broken when the child dropped from her whilst she sat upon a pail thinking that she was going to have a motion. She told the Dr that the child gasped once and then died. He the Dr told them to bury it. There does not appear to have been any attempt to conceal the child but the clandestine burial of it appears to have created the suspicion that there is something wrong, Signed Wlamsley police constable at Leyburn. sworn statement of Elizabeth wife of Thomas Ward of Bellerby, farm labourer. ....

| 3950 | This is added tentatively until proven otherwise. It is so far only based on the following excerpt (brackets mine): "THE SCOTT FAMILY By Nelson Mason, Grandson of William Addison Scott A family history of the Scotts is contained in two leaves from an old family bible in my mother's possession, herewith reproduced under date of February 12, 1905. The only sister of CHARLES STUART, called the Pretender (Bonnie Prince Charlie), married John Gilmor. Their daughter, Mary Gilmor, married Robert Scott." (of course history books report that Charles did not have any sisters, only one brother Henry, so how reliable this family story is cannot be known. I suppose it's possible there was an illegitimate child who was this 'sister' of Bonnie Prince Charlie) | STUART, Mary (I3152)
