HISTORICAL MISCELLANY


Will of Sir William Ogborne, dated Oct. 5, and proved Oct. 23, 1734, in which he men- tions himself as "Knt, Citizen and Carpenter" of Rosemary Lane, Parish of St. Mary, White Chapel, County of Middlesex, and makes the following bequests:


The freehold property, in Cheapside and Lawrence Lane, in occupancy, and an empty house adjoining, he gives to his wife Dame Joyce, and also the residence, in Rosemary Lane, during her lifetime, she paying £20, in half-yearly payments, to his Grandson, Ogborne Churchill.


Upon his wife's demise, these properties are given to his Grandson, Ogborne Churchill and Grand-daughter, Sarah Churchill, equally. In case both die before twenty-one years of age and leave no heirs, then these properties are to be equally divided between St. Thomas' Hospital, Southwark, County of Surrey, and The Carpenters' Guild, of London, for the benefit of their poor.


The testator also gave to his wife his coach, his chariot horses, plate, hay, corn, etc. He owned many houses leased to many individuals.


To his sister, Mary Bedson, of Tower St., London, widow, he gave the other three mes- suages in Rosemary Lane, in occupancy. These properties at her decease to his Grandson, Og- borne Churchill and Grand-daughter, Sarah Churchill, who were his chief legatees, and in case of no issue to either of the grandchildren, the properties to St. Thomas' Hospital and The Car- penters' Guild, as mentioned above.


To his wife Joyce one-third of his personal estate, as widow's thirds, and one-third "to my daughter, Mary Churchill," and the remaining one-third to his widow Joyce.


To his Grandson, Richard Churchill, £200, as he, being the eldest son of his father and mother, was amply provided for as heir of his parents in their marriage settlement.


To Walter Coleman, his son-in-law, Woolen Draper, of Black Fryerres, London, £200. To the Poor of Trinity House, £100.


To the Poor Quakers, of Ratcliffe Meeting, £20, to be distributed by his son-in-law, Walter Coleman, and his wife, Dame Joyce.


To the Poor of the Carpenters' Guild.


To Thomas Ogborne, of Hillingdon, County of Middlesex, Labourer, £Io.


His widow, Dame Joyce, to pay £1,000, due on purchase of property in Cheapside.


Executors: Walter Coleman and his wife, Dame Joyce.


Witnesses: Jno Martin, Sam11 Troughton and Hudson Tastolf [or Tastotf].


His widow, Dame Joyce, died about ten years later, and was mentioned in her will as of Greenwich, Kent County, England. She was doubtless a second wife for she mentions none of his legatees, except "Sister Mary Bedson." She willed her estate to her kinspeople, females, by the names of Williams, Clopton and Searles, and the residue of her estate to her nephew, William Singleton, of St. Christophers, West Indies. She made many bequests of good size to friends and servants.


"Mr. Deputy Merry of Southwark was educated in this school [i. e. the Charity School] in grateful remem- brance of which he has left to it the reversion of property amounting to 200£ a year after the death of Mr. Ogborn, stationer in Bishopsgate street." "Mr. Merry also left to the school the reversion of 4500£ Three per cent Consols after the decease of three persons named in his will and rooof South Sea Annuities."

has brothers residing in that city, namely: Harry, George, Alfred and Edward Ogborn. They are Quakers.


In New Jersey the name was favorably known through the State for many years, especially in the vicinity of Middletown, but now, save in its application to the site of an old homestead, "Annie Ogborne's Corners," on the road between Middletown and Holmdel, it is extinct.


In 1900, even this name is lost, for to this locality the name on the sign-board and in Ellis' History has been corrupted to Ogden.


The Ogbornes were socially a prominent family, but, with few exceptions, held no political positions. Through the female side of the house have descended the late Amos R. Manning, Esq., of the Supreme Court of Alabama; the Hon. Edward Scudder, of the Supreme Court of New Jersey; Prof. John Stillwell Schenck, of Princeton College; the Drs. Stillwell, of New York City; Ex-Governor Bedle, of New Jersey; the Taylors, of Middletown, N. J., and others.
