As early as 1662 the first of the Dorchester branch of the Dorsey family received as a deed of gift two hundred acres of land at the head of Fishing Creek, five miles below Cam- bridge.
Within a few years the Dorsey possessions were increased until, in the year 1671, they owned the several tracts adjoin- ing, aggregating one thousand acres, and including "Pres- ton," 500 acres; "Teverton," 300; "Ye Ending of Contro- versie," 200, and "Dorsey's Range," 50. In other parts of the county, their patents included "Dorsey's Chance," 200 acres; "Barrell Green," 100; "Humphrey's Desire," 50; "Olive Branch," 50; "Southampton," 100; "Hayland," and others.
In addition to these they were left a reversionary interest in "Horn's Point," 600 acres, as next of kin to the daughters of Richard Preston, Commander of the Patuxent and high colonial official.
Like Edward Dorsey, progenitor of the Western Shore branch, the first of the Eastern Shore family settled in Cal- vert County, but soon took possession of the fertile lands which have descended in an unbroken line from father to son by the law of primogeniture and afterwards by will, through eight successive generations until the present day.
As this family possesses the peculiar distinction of having only one son marry in each generation, there never has been from their first settlement but one family of the name in

HISTORY OF DORCHESTER COUNTY
Dorchester County, the owners and occupants of "Ye End- ing of Controversie."
While never figuring conspicuously in politics, the Dor- seys have always been public spirited and have not failed to serve their country since the first of the line received a grant of land in Dorset for services rendered the colonial govern- ment in the early Indian Wars. That lack of inclination kept them out of official life is evident from the fact that their nearest kinsmen, both by blood and marriage, occupied posts of power in the provincial government.
At the time, however, that the Dorseys of Anne Arundel County were figuring conspicuously in the public move- ments, the Dorchester men of that name were devoting their interests toward the cultivation of their acres and their brains rather than seeking preferment away from home.
That the Dorseys, of Dorchester, were early of decided literary tastes and pursuits we have reason to believe, for in the day when many a one could not write his own name we find Edward Dorsey selling, among other personal effects upon his departure from the county, two mahogany writing desks mentioned in a bill of sale in 1750. At this time he is believed to have removed to Harford County, but not being the benedict of the family through whom the land descended, was lost sight of.
In the year 1781, when the English in barges harassed the Eastern Shore of Maryland, the home guards were called on to defend Vienna. Where the British landed to maraud the town, Levin Dorsey responded and was killed during the fight there while attempting to repel the invaders. He would have been buried at Vienna had not his only son John, a boy of about fifteen years, begged his body of the English officer, who, touched by his appeal, granted the lad's request.
His remains were conveyed in a wagon to Controversie, a distance of twenty miles, guarded by his young son and an old slave.
The British grapeshot was extracted and retained by his

descendants to the present generation as a souvenior of the tragic event.
When young John Dorsey grew to manhood he manu- mitted his slaves for conscience sake in the year 1790, which act is duly recorded at Cambridge.
During the life of the next John Dorsey, bachelor and bon vivant, the old place became famous for the free and lavish hospitality of its host.
Upon the death of his bachelor brother John, the late Mr. James L. Dorsey, of Baltimore, became owner of "Ye End- ing of Controversie." He, however, never lived there after his marriage to Miss Sarah A. Webster Richardson, daughter of the late Mr. Levin Richardson, of Elsing, near Church Creek.
Mr. James L. Dorsey and wife lived in Baltimore from their marriage until their old age. All of their children being born and raised there.
The children of this couple now living are Messrs. John R. Dorsey, Frank S. Dorsey and Charles H. Dorsey, of Balti- more; Miss Mary V. Dorsey and Miss Sallie Webster, of Elsing, Dorchester County; Mrs. John M. Willis, of Dor- chester County, and Mrs. Albert L. Richardson, of Balti- more.
THE DRAIN FAMILY.
William F. Drain, Cashier of the National Bank of Cam- bridge, Md., since 1880, was born in Princess Anne, Md., in 1841. His parents were Rev. Shepherd Drain and Mary A. (Creighton) Drain. Shepherd Drain was born in Sussex County, Del., in 1806, married Miss Mary A. Creighton. daughter of Vernon Creighton, April 24, 1835, and died November 12, 1844, at Greensborough, Caroline County, Md., in the fourteenth year of his ministry as a member of the Philadelphia Methodist Episcopal Conference. His ministerial labors were chiefly on the Eastern Shore, in Dor- chester and other counties. He was junior pastor in Dor- chester County, with Rev. John Lenhart, and visited the
286
HISTORY OF DORCHESTER COUNTY
islands of that section with Rev. Joshua Thomas, where many sought and found by faith the forgiveness of their sins under the spiritual teaching of those divines, then spreading Wes- leyan Methodism.
The widow of Rev. Shepherd Drain died December 23, 1878.
The maternal grandfather of Wm. F. Drain was Vernon Creighton, who was among the first Methodists in Dorches- ter County.
Wm. F. Drain married Miss Maria Louise Creighton, daughter of John R. Creighton, October 28, 1875. Louise B. Drain is their only child now living.
THE ECCLESTON FAMILY.
There were two brothers Eccleston in England, one of them inherited the family estate in Lancastershire and the other, either by marriage or through his mother, got an estate in Buckinghamshire. From one of these brothers descended Hugh Eccleston, who came to the Province of Maryland between 1645 and 1665. He took up land first on the Transquaking River, in Dorchester County, and after- wards some on the Blackwater River, in 1667. The Dor- chester County Rent Rolls show that Moses Mathews, who had "Daniel's Pasture," 100 acres, surveyed May 12, 1664, and also owned "Newton's Desire," left these tracts of land to John and Thomas Eccleston, sons of Hugh Eccleston; at the death of Hugh Eccleston, he left land to his son John, who married Mary Skinner, of Talbot County.
The children of John Eccleston and Mary Skinner, his wife, were:
I. Hugh, who married Elizabeth Ennalls.
2. Thomas Firmin, who married Milcah Pitt, née Airey, daughter of Rev. Thomas Airey and Milcah Gale, née Hill, his wife.
3. Dorthea, married Joseph Richardson.
4. Rachel, remained single.
287
THE ECCLESTONS
John Eccleston was possessed of a large estate, which he divided between his two sons, Hugh and Thomas Firmin, giving Hugh the property on Transquaking and Thomas that on Blackwater, which is still in the family.
The Ecclestons were prominent in public affairs, Hugh first was a major under the provincial government. It was through his family that the annual rent of an Indian bow and arrow was paid by the Indians to Queen Anne, of Eng- land. At the time of the Revolution of 1776, one of these bows and arrows was in possession of the Eccleston family.
The children of Hugh Eccleston, the second, were:
I. Elizabeth Ennalls, no record.
2. Dr. John, married, I, Miss Gale, of Somerset County;
2, Miss Sulivane, of East New Market.

THE ENNALLS FAMILY.
The first Ennalls to arrive in Maryland was Bartholomew, who came from York County, Va., where, about 1660, he married Mrs. Mary Heyward, widow of Francis Heyward, by whom she had two sons, Francis and John Heyward.
In the Land Office Records at Annapolis, Md., date of March 10, 1669, Bartholomew Ennalls, of the County of Dorset, proves the right for transporting the following per- sons out of Virginia to inhabit in this Province, viz: Him- self, Mary (his wife), Thomas Ennalls, Bartholomew Ennalls, Mary Ennalls, Francis Heyward and John Heyward (his children), John Nichols, Wm. Ennalls, Wm. Sudlock and Susan Hyde (his servants).
The first tracts of land laid out for Bartholomew Ennalls and his son Thomas was "Bartholomew's Range," 420 acres, surveyed July 10, 1672, in possession of Thos. Ennalls (see Rent Rolls). Previously he had purchased of John Edmond- son 2000 acres of land on the Transquaking River by deed, dated January 18, 1668, for a sloop and 1000 pounds of tobacco.
In reference to the Heywards, there is in court a letter of record from Francis and John Heyward, of October 25, 1680, to Wm. Arnold, authorizing him to give possession of some land in Pocoson, York County, Va., to Francis Heyward's father, Bartholomew Ennalls.
In March, 1688, Bartholomew Ennalls died and mentioned in his will five sons and two daughters, namely: Thomas,
289
THE ENNALLS
William, Joseph, John and Henry, and daughter Elizabeth, who married Major Roger Woolford, and Mary, who mar- ried Joseph Foster. His sons Thomas and William died without leaving any descendants. Joseph, John and Henry left many sons and daughters; from them have descended branches of the Goldsboroughs, Hoopers, Bayards, Craigs, Sulivanes, Muses, Waggamans and many other prominent families of the country.
In 1776 Bartholomew Ennalls was appointed Commis- sioner or County Justice in Dorchester, and was thereafter continually in office, either as Justice or Member of the Assembly, until his death in 1688. The popularity and prominence of the father was inherited by his sons, who became even more influential in county and State affairs. In 1692 his son Thomas was appointed one of the County Jus- tices and reappointed until 1699, when his brother Henry became his associate in the County Court of Justice. They were continued in office until 1706, when three of the brothers, Joseph, Henry and Thomas sat in the same County Court. Very little is known of their private business affairs, but the land records show they were owners of much real estate, and that Thomas Ennalls was a mariner in 1690. While their name is extinct in the county, their blood flows down the Goldsborough line of descent from Robert Golds- borough, barrister, and Elizabeth Goldsborough, the chil- dren of Elizabeth (Ennalls) Goldsborough and her husband, Charles Goldsborough, and also through the Hoopers, Muses, Woolfords and other family lines still surviving in the county.
About the year 1760, Thomas Muse, of Westmoreland County, Va., married Anne Ennalls, daughter of Joseph Ennalls, the son of Joseph, the third son of Bartholomew Ennalls. The Maryland Council of Safety commissioned Thomas Muse Major of the 19th Battalion of Militia, Octo- ber 23, 1776, and sent him fifty pounds to pay the mustering officers at Cambridge, where he was then stationed. He 19
290
HISTORY OF DORCHESTER COUNTY
died November 22, 1776, and left two children, Margaret and Joseph Ennalls Muse. Margaret married, in 1790, Dr. Wm. Worthington Davis, a bright Scotchman, who died in 1795, leaving several children. From them have descended family branches of Campbells, Chamberlains, Thomases and Tripps. Joseph Ennalls Muse married Sophia Kerr, daugh- ter of David Kerr and Rachel Leeds (Bozman) Edmondson, widow of James Edmondson, Esq. Sophia (Kerr) Muse was a sister of John Leeds Kerr, who was elected to the U. S. Senate. When he was born, in 1780, a party of gentlemen crossed Chesapeake Bay on the ice in January to Wade's Point Plantation, in Talbot County, to inform the Hon. John Leeds of the birth of his great-grandson and namesake. His great-great-great-grandfather, Col. Nicholas Lowe, owned the first coach in Talbot County, and when they drove out in it to White Marsh Church the folks, white and black, would gather along the road to see them pass. The chil- dren of Dr. Joseph Ennalls Muse and his wife, Sophia (Kerr) Muse were Joseph E., Dr. James A., Dr. William H. and one daughter, Mrs. Nicholas B. (Muse) Worthington.
Dr. Joseph E. Muse, the eldest son, became an expert chemist and scientist, took great pleasure in agriculture, and in 1838, the Regents of the University of Maryland con- ferred upon him the honorary degree of Doctor of Medicine.
Col. Wm. Sulivane Muse, of the U. S. Marine Corps, is the eldest son of Dr. Wm. H. Muse, herein named, and Elizabeth Sulivane Muse, born in Dorchester County, Md., April 8, 1842. He entered the U. S. Navy as a volunteer in 1862, and was commissioned Lieutenant in the U. S. Marine Corps March 18, 1864; served on the U. S. Str. "St. Marys," in the Pacific until 1866; was then assigned to shore duty at Washington and Annapolis for four years; then ordered to the U. S. S. "Brooklyn," in the European Squad- ron for three years. In 1878 he was ordered to the U. S. Artillery School at Fort Monroe, Va., for instruction, where he graduated in 1880, was that year promoted Captain and
291
THE ENNALLS
joined the U. S. Flagship "Tennessee," in 1881, where he served three years as Fleet Marine Officer of the North Atlantic Squadron; then followed shore duty at Washington, New York and San Francisco. In 1885, was stationed on the Isthmus of Panama, with a marine battalion, during a revolution, to protect property and guard route of transit across the isthmus. In 1886 was ordered to Newport, R. I., to take course at Naval Torpedo School and War College. In 1890 and 1893 served on the U. S. Flagships "Charleston" and "San Francisco" as Fleet Marine Officer of the Pacific Squadron, and commanded the marines of the fleet at the Naval Review in New York in 1893. Was promoted Major, June, 1898; Lieutenant-Colonel, February, 1899, and Colo- nel, January, 1900. Next ordered to command the Marine Guard at U. S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, Md., while Admiral Cervera and the other Spanish naval officers, cap- tured at Santiago, were held prisoners there. In December, 1898, was ordered to Havana, Cuba, with marines, to occupy Navy Yard upon the evacuation of the Spanish; in 1900 was in command of the Marine Barracks, Brooklyn, N. Y., then transferred to Marine Barracks, Mare Island, California, where he was found physically unfit for active service by a Naval Medical Board, and from there ordered home and retired from service. He has returned to his magnificent home in Cambridge, Md., where every comfort surrounds him that could be reasonably desired.

THE GOLDSBOROUGH FAMILY.
All of the Goldsboroughs in Dorchester County and Mary- land are descendants from the same parental ancestor, Nich- olas Goldsborough, who was a descendant of an old English family of that name who lived at Goldsborough Hall, in the County of York, England, as far back as 1157.
Nicholas Goldsborough was born in 1640, at Malcolm Regis, near Weymouth, Dorset County, England. He mar- ried Margaret Howes, the only daughter of Abraham Howes, son of Wm. Howes, of Newburg, in Burks County, England, in 1659. In 1669 he went to Barbados, thence to New England and finally settled on Kent Island, in Maryland in 1670. A few years later his wife and three children joined him in his new home on the Isle of Kent. Soon after their arrival, Nicholas Goldsborough died. His widow married George Robins, of Talbot County, in 1672. The children of Nicholas Goldsborough and his wife, Margaret (Howes)

HISTORY OF DORCHESTER COUNTY
Goldsborough, were Robert, Nicholas and Judith. Robert married, September 2, 1697, Elizabeth Greenbury, daughter of Col. Nicholas Greenbury and Ann, his wife, of Greenbury Point, near Annapolis, Md. They settled at "Ashbey," in Talbot County, and had a large family. Their son, Charles Goldsborough, who was Clerk of Dorchester County Court from 1727 to 1738, married, July 18, 1730, Elizabeth Ennalls, sister of Col. William and Joseph Ennalls, of Dorchester County. After her death, he married Elizabeth Dickinson, of Philadelphia. By his first wife, Elizabeth Ennalls, he had two children, viz: Robert Goldsborough and Elizabeth Goldsborough. Robert, who was born December 3, 1733, was educated in England and became a distinguished lawyer and statesman; was appointed a Delegate to the Continen- tal Congress by several conventions of Maryland, which were held at Annapolis. He was a member of the Council of Safety and also of the Constitutional Convention of Mary- land in 1776. He married in England, March 27, 1755, Sarah Yerbury, daughter of Richard Yerbury, of Bassing Hall Street, London. They came to Maryland and settled in Cambridge. He owned and lived on the "Point," the prop- erty now owned by Mrs. Eliza Hayward. From his family of twelve children we trace two notable branches of his line. His eldest son, William Goldsborough, inherited the "Point," which he sold to James Steele and moved to Frederick County, Md. He married Miss Sarah Worthington, daugh- ter of Col. Nicholas Worthington, of Anne Arundel County.
Another son of Hon. Robert Goldsborough was Dr. Rich- ard Goldsborough, of Cambridge, who married Achsah Worthington, a sister of Mrs. William Goldsborough, his brother's wife. Dr. Goldsborough lived in Cambridge and practiced medicine, he was a large land owner, and had a large family. One of his sons was Hon. Brice John Golds- borough, who, for many years, was Judge of the Circuit Court, and in 1861, was appointed by Gov. Thomas Holli- day Hicks to the Bench of the Court of Appeals for Mary-

Worthington Golds- borough, now a Pay Inspector, U. S. Navy, who entered the service on September 30, 1862, as Acting Assistant Pay- master; was made Assistant Paymaster in 1864; promoted to Paymaster May, 1866; and made Pay Inspector November 24, 1891.

During the Spanish-American War, he was on volunteer duty at Norfolk, Va .; and after the death of Pay Inspector Loomis, was ordered to the Naval Academy, where he is now on duty. Paymaster Goldsbor- ough married Miss Nettie M. Jones, daughter of Samuel W. Jones, of Princess Anne, Somerset County, Md. They have four sons living, viz : Dr. B. W. Goldsborough and Hon. P. L.
