PREFACE


Volume I of this publication appeared in 1915. Since that time there has been a frequently repeated demand for the publication of the existing remainder of the Maryland Colonial Census of 1776, and the same is here made available (pp. 79-230, partly in facsimile). The other facsimile records of West St. Mary's Manor (pp. xi) and the State of His Lordship's Manors (Frontispiece and pp. 4-78) contain the names and ages of settlers of yet earlier periods and all these records will be found valuable. The Colonial Census and the Lord Baltimore records are so large in size and often so indistinct in preservation, and of such varying construction, that special code treatment has been necessary. A careful study of the ex- planation given at the beginning of each of these sections is necessary and will quickly enable the reader to understand and use the materials as published.


Many of the names of the Colonial period were phonetically and other- wise poorly spelled. The spellings found in the original records have been followed and an effort to assist the reader is made throughout the com- prehensive index. Page 184, "Shurlotter Mitchel" is evidently Charlotte Mitchel; page 185, "Elexander Larance" is probably Alexander Lawrence; page 259, Charles "Ginings" is probably Jennings; etc. The searcher should constantly keep in thought the possible phonetic variations of the names being sought in the index.


Negative and positive photostatic copies and the original records them- selves, and a reading glass, were used in preparing this volume. In cases of extreme importance to the reader, or of doubt as to the published spelling, it may be well to refer to the original record the location of which is usually mentioned throughout the volume. Photostatic copies of many of these original records may be obtained from the Maryland Historical' Society, custodian of the State Archives, or from the author.


The last section of page 136, as deciphered by means of a reading glass appears to be:


James Mather 53 Mary Mather. .20


Jemimah (?) Mather 57 Jeremiah Mather


Michael Mather 25 Darby Dwur . 40


Thomas Mather 23


Lucy Morgan, Svts. 25


The indistinct portion of page 300 has been supplied on page 308.

name may appear as "Sr." and "Junr." yet be indexed only once on the page. The reader will be much interested in tracing the same person through several classes of records at different ages of the person.


Numerous co-workers who secured and suggested important source records for this volume since its preparation began, have passed to the other life, and it is a pleasure to record full appreciation for their assistance. The Right Reverend Alfred Harding, D.D., Bishop of Washington, mentioned in the Preface to Vol. I, gave direction to my first researches and frequently expressed his continued interest and approval. The "Broad Creek Records," etc., are as a result ready for publication in Vol. III. Governor Edwin Warfield who died in April, 1920, and who, as President of the Md. Historical Society, placed many of its historical treasures at my disposal. Mr. James Walter Thomas kindly and freely granted copyright use (p. 208) from his important "Chronicles of Maryland." Mr. George W. Hodges carefully transcribed the Anne Arundel Co. Marriages (p. 415) and the Worcester Parish Records (p. 579), and the late Dr. Wm. Tayloe Snyder materially assisted in securing various Episcopal Church Records.


Among the numerous living helpers it is a pleasure to acknowledge the cooperation of the officers of the Maryland Historical Society, and especially the continuous interest and active assistance of Mr. Charles Fickus, acting Librarian, and, recently, of Dr. J. Hall Pleasants, Chairman of its Publica- tion Committee. Mr. Francis Barnum Culver, Registrar General, N. S. Sons of American Revolution, and also prominent officer in various other national patriotic societies, has closely followed the progress of the work and has kindly written the Introduction. Mr. Arthur Sullivan Browne, Register of Rock Creek Parish has shown his active cooperation through- out the years, and the materials to be published in Vol. III will more fully show the results of his interest. To all those mentioned and to the various other Church and County officers and to all the friends who have assisted in making this volume possible, including my wife who extensively assisted in the preparation of the index, and to the Lancaster Press, Inc., printers, I express most cordial thanks.

INTRODUCTION


Men generally are satisfied with a superficial brand of knowledge and usually that knowledge is confined to a few subjects of common interest. Their attitude is based for the most part upon the practical value of ma- terial things, and whatever seems less likely to yield profit or personal advantage is consistently ignored.


There are some minds however, which delight in probing beneath the surface and in exploring neglected by-paths in search of hidden treasures. For those who are so inclined, the Maryland Historical Society of Balti- more provides a fertile field, a veritable mine of historical lore.


In this volume of Maryland Records and in the volume which preceded it, Dr. Gaius M. Brumbaugh, the compiler and author, has culled from a mass of material in the Society's possession, and from numerous other original sources, a prodigious amount of data heretofore little known and not generally accessible.


The contents of this work are remarkably interesting and valuable in every respect; particularly, from the genealogical view-point. An examin- ation of the Table of Contents of this volume will show how extensive the field is, and a study of the text will reveal a discerning and discriminating sense on the part of the compiler.


The lists of Maryland marriages, the transcripts of the church records of various counties of the State, the census reports of the inhabitants, the data from the early Rent Rolls and Land Books, and perhaps most in- teresting to patriotic societies, the section devoted to Maryland Revolu- tionary War pensioners, constitute a collection of historical material which will make Dr. Brumbaugh's work indispensable as a book of reference. A voluminous index adds to the value of the whole.

"State of His Lordship's Manors," 1766, 1767, 1768. Rent Rolls-Partial Census


"Frederick the sixth, last Lord Baltimore, was born Feb. 6, 1731/2. His guardians, during the brief period of his minority which remained after his succession to the title, were John Sharpe, Esq., a barrister, and the Right Honorable Arthur Onslow, Speaker of the House of Commons." *


Frederick, it was admitted, enjoyed from this heritage at the time of his marriage in 1753 [to Lady Diana Egerton, who d. Aug. 1758] a yearly revenue of £9,500, and at the time of his death in 1771, the amount had increased to £12,000." }


Mr. Arthur Trader, C. C. Land Commissioner's Office, Annapolis, Md., writes: "We have never published a list of Manors as recorded in our records, as the office has always considered them to be private estate of the Lords Baltimore, and would properly belong to the separate estate of the Proprietary."


"All of these lands were either sold by private sale, before the Revolu- tion, or by the Intendent of the Revenue, as confiscated British property. They were not sold under their Manor names, but as seated farm lands."


The following reports are carefully prepared for printing from photo- static copies of the original unbound and much worn record book, extend- ing across 2 pp. each 121/2" X 171/2", and from a few separate sheets. It has seemed impractical to here reproduce these large sheets in facsimile, and they represent the discoveries to date amongst the historical treasures of this character in the Maryland Archives. They are published through the cooperation and courtesy of the Maryland Historical Society.
