9904 The Brooks children, Noah, Seth, Rebeckah, Abner, Dorothy and their mother Sarah, are recorded as having died in August and September 1747 Townsend, Mass. (228) This appears correct. The headstones give their death date as 1748 Townsend, Mass. (347? 48) Even though the chiseled words are very rustic, the 1748 is clear. The mother?s headstone is not rustic, also recording 1748. I [townsendburial] believe that the 1747 date is correct. Contributor Barbara Webster found there was a measles epidemic at this time throughout the colonies. This may have been the cause of so many deaths in one family. The headstones of the children are very rustic with chiseled words. I'm sure those headstones were done later. The tragedy of so many deaths clouded the memory of the year.

9905 The Census for 1870 and 1880 both lists the birth for Anna as being about 1862. The 1900 census, however, lists her birth date as April 1866. I am inclined to believe that it should be april 1862. Because her brother, Samuel, has his birth date in the 1900 census as March 1866. For this reason, I am putting Anna M.'s birth date as April 1862. DENTON, Anna M. (I18834)

Headline:SMALL BOY DROWNS IN RIVER OFFSET HERE
Harve Biles Steps into 12-Foot Depth Uncle Recovers Body
Grappling Hook Contact Body of Fallowfield Ave. Lad Four Hours After Death In Monogahela River Here
Small Companion of Lad took clothes home
Stepping off a shore and -ledge into 12 feet of water, Harve Adrian Biles, age six years, 615 Fallowfield avenue, drowned in the Monogahela River here late yesterday. His lifeless body was brought up by a grappling hook in the hands of an uncle four hours after the late afternoon tragedy.
The accident occurred about 5:15 p.m. near an anchored houseboat on the lower section of the Chamber of Commerce grounds. Harve Davis, the boy's uncle contacted the body with a grappling hook at 9:05 p.m. from one four small craft which engaged in the search. The remains were brought ashore and removed before the distraught gaze of hundreds of onlookers who watched the operations.
The lad was said to have never played at the riverside before. 'He went to the river with a small girl playmate and it was her action in removing his clothes to her home that the drowning was discovered.
The boy had intended wading about on the three foot sandbar which exists near the death spot. Dredging of several years ago to provide a place for boat mooring causes a dangerous shelf offset into deep water there.
When the girl reported to her parents that she had waited in vain for the boy to return from he water and summarily, in childlike innocence, brought the lad's clothing away and the alarm was given. Charleroi police were called and instigated the search with local and North Charleroi fired departments co-operating, Edmond Santini of North Charleroi was notified by police and that department's rescue boat was hauled to the scene, while local firemen also went into the hunt took their light plant to the river in preparation for grappling after dark. Alfred Netti used his power boat in the work, while three power boats were manned by police, firemen and other grapplers, additional hooks having been obtained from Belle Vernon.
Harve Davis, uncle of the boy, felt the contact on his grappling line and drew the inert form to the surface a few feet from the houseboat and at the point just about where the boy is believed to have gone down. Deputy Coroner Francis Slezak took charge of the remains and they were later turned over to the Schrock Funeral Home.
After the alarm, word of the drowning spread rapidly. Scores went to the river and lined the bank for the long vigil of searching.
The boy was born Nov. 9, 1944, in North Charleroi, a son of Allen Biles, who is in Germany, and Grace Davis Metzger, 615 Fallowfield Avenue, Charleroi.
He was a member of the Sunday School of the First Christain Church.
In addition to his father and mother, he leaves his stepfather, Bradley Metzger, and two brothers, Allen Davis Biles and William L. Biles; a half -brother, Bradley Metzger; two half sisters Sharon Lee Metzger and Dorothea Alice Metzger.

9908 The Coles were among the early settlers of the Old Colony. John, Job and Daniel were brothers, and came over from England quite early. john settled at Plymouth, and died testate about the year 1637. Job and Daniel finally settled in Eastham, where they died.

Job Cole married Rebecca, daughter of Mr. William Collier, a resident of that part of the Old Colony now Duxbury, May 14, 1634. He lived for awhile near Mr. Collier. In 1638, Mr. Cole had 40 acres of land granted him at Green harbor, now Marshfield. He was propounded at Plymouth court march 4, 1638/9, and admitted a freeman march 3, 1639/40. It is recorded in 1639 that he paid the passage to this country of Thomas Gray, and found him apparel afterwards and before he became the indentured apprentice of Mr. john Atwood of Plymouth. Mr. Cole's name appears in the list of those who were able to bear arms in Yarmouth in 1643, which indicates that at that date he was a resident of yarmouth; but if he were a resident it seems quite certain that he was not long at that place.

In 1648, he was residing in Eastham, and was that year chosen constable, and was ordered by the Old Colony court to take the oath at home. In 1650, he conveyed land at marshfield to Thomas Chillingsworth, a shoemaker. In 1654, he was again constable of Eastham. In 1657, August 13, he sold his house and land at Duxbury to Christopher Wadsworth for L17 sterling. After this date but little appears concerning him, and it is supposed that he died not far from this period.

Job Cole appears to have been a man of good standing in Eastham, though not much honored in public positions. His brother Daniel was the more noted man and of greater influence in the town and colony.

9913 The Connecticut river was then the highway of commerce, and Rocky Hill was an important business center. He owned one of the 2 shipyards, and is mentioned as a noted shipwright in connection with boats built in the early part of the 19th century, among them the brig "Mary", 1805, the schooner "Nancy", 1807, the brig "Dispatch," 1808, and the schooner "Archer," 1810. these ere all engaged in foreign trade. His house was on the old shipyard reservation north of the present railroad station. BELDEN, Elisha (I04871)
 
9914 The connection of the John halls of Boston and New Haven with the Wilkes family makes the identification more complete. In 1633, probably on the "Griffin", Mr. William Wilkes came over with his wife and several relatives and settled in Boston, where he was living, August, 1636, as the records show an order of that date requiring him "to set his fence in line so as to provide for a street." February 9, 1634, his wife, Joan, joined the church in Boston. In the fall of 1637, he went with Governor Eaton to New Haven, his family probably following him the next year with Davenport. He remained there until 1644, when he returned to England, dying there two or three years later. His wife embarked for London in January, 1646, in Lamberton's Ill-fated ship and was lost at sea. In Mr. Wilkes' family was a young English girl, perhaps half through her teens, Joan Wollen, or Jeanne, as she was more commonly called, supposed to have been a niece or cousin of Mrs. Wilkes whose name she bore. This young girl could hardly have escaped the sharp eyes of a young fellow of twenty-seven or eight, like John Hall, in so small a town as Boston then was, and it was impossible that he should not have made her acquaintance during the five years both were living there, if he had not already done so on the voyage over. In 138, Jeanne goes with Mrs. Wilkes to New Haven. The next year John Hall, presumable the freeman of 1634, and the Pequot soldier of 1637, also appears there and makes a settlement, and not long after marries this same young English girl, Jeanne Wollen. WOOLEN, Jeanne (I101340)
 
9915 The country home of this family was at Hedingworth, Leicestershire England, where lived John Robbins and his wife Hester. As the parish church of that village was burned about 1600, and with it the parish records previous to that time, but little can be learned about the family, except that John Robbins was a large land owner; that, according to his monument, still existing in the churchyard at Hedingworth, he d. 12 Aug., 1680, and was buried "according to an Act of Parliament" (whatever that may mean), and that, as appears by the parish register, Hester, his wife, was buried 7 Aug. 1697; also, that they had six sons, four of whom emigrated to America about the time of the great Puritan exodus hither. ROBBINS, John (I101673)

LONDON'S SMART SET INTERESTED IN COMING WEDDING

London, Jan. 31. - For some weeks the coming marriage of Miss Florence Padelford, daughter of Mrs. Ernest Cunard by her first marriage, and the Hon. Bertie Grosvenor, eldest son of the Lord and Lady Eubury, of Moor park, has been the subject of considerable interest. Miss Florence Padelford, although a great favorite in society, and among the girls of her own age, has always avoided publicity of every description, and in this her fiance's views thoroughly coincide with hers. The wedding, I undertand is to take place at St. Margaret's Westminister, Saturday, February 1. Miss Padelford spent most of the autumn at her mother's and step-father's country place. Red Rice, Andover, helping to entertain house parties, and only coming up to London occassionally to attend matters connected with her trousseau. She has received many handsome presents from members of the family, including a magnificent diamond tiara. From Lord Ebury she received a diamond and emerald ring which is one of the family heirlooms, being the gift of the duke of Wellington to the late Lady Ebury. Mr. Ernest Cunard has given his stepdaughter a handsome diamond corsage ornament. Her mother's gift is a pearl and diamond dog collar. Among Mr. Grosvenor's presents to his fiance are a traveling bag, a diamond and emerald ring and a rope of lovely pearls, and he has received from Miss Padelford a gold watch and an enamel cigarete case. The bride's dress is of soft white satin with a long train, entirely covered with old Brussels lace, the gift of Lady Eubury, who also presented her future daughter-in-law with an old Honiton lace weil which has been worn by severla members of the family for many years. Master Ivor Guest and Master Martin Glynn, nephews of the bridegroom, will act as pages. They will wear little Van Dyke costumes of white satin edged with pink velvet tape to match the color of the bridesmaids' gown. The six bridesmaids include Miss Molly Grosvenor, daughter of the Hon. Mrs. Norman Grosvenor, and Miss Rosaumnd Grosvenor, the Hon. Mrs. Algernon Grosvenor's daughter, these two girls being nieces of the Hon. Bertie Grosvenor; Lady Rosemary Carins, Miss Ralil, daughter of Mrs. Eddie Stoner; Miss Rachel Hope Vere and Lady Norrey's daughter, the Hon. Alexandra Bertie. Their dresses are of Rose du Barry chiffon trimmed with soft silk of the same shade, and althugh it is not yet decided upon, it is probable that they will wear only large bows in their hair. Mr. Ernest Cunard will give the bride away, and after the ceremony he and Mrs. Cunard will hold a reception at their place in Portman square, after which the bride and bridegroom will leave for the manor house. Ashby St. Legers, Rugy, kindly lent them to Mrs. and Mrs. Ivor Guest, to spend their honemoon.

WILL MARRY AGAIN

New York Courts
New York, Oct. 24 - Great interest centers in the suit for divorce of Mrs. Padelford, the beautiful daughter of Gen. Ordway, on account of a report that as soon as she obtains a decree she will marry young George Eustis, grandson and heir of the millionaire, W.W. Corcoran. Three years ago she entered Washington society and was considered the prettiest debutante of the season. There she met her present husband. Last December she left him and returned to her father's house, taking with her her month-old child. Mrs. Padelford is very beautiful, has a superb voice and is but twenty-one years old.

CAREER OF MISS GIRARD
Once a Famous Belle in Washington Society

Washington, Dec. 5 - The recent attempt of Miss Bertina Girard to suicide has brought her forward as the subject of gossip in circles here where she was once so well known. Miss Girard is the daughter of Gen. Albert Ordway, a prominent Washingtonian. Bettie Ordway was a few years ago the belle of Washington. She has traveled down a lane of sensation with the rapidity of an avalanche. She was generally conceded to be one of the most beautiful girls in the country for several seasons, and her fame was far and wide.
Her career really began at the "White", the famous Virginia watering place, where during the progress of a noontide lawn party she recklessly took off her white dancing slipper and invited a gentleman friend to drink some white wine therefrom. The little incident was overlooked and she returned to the city where she passed a brilliant season and had a score of suitors at her feet. In the June following one bright morning she walked down Pennsylvania avenue in a ravishing gown of some soft white stuff. When she got as far as Ninth Street, there were a dozen or more men in her wake. Among them was a policeman who had been attracted by the costume which was so decoletto that it attracted the attention of the multitude. The policeman whispered something to Miss Ordway, and when she returned home a bunch of violets and a muslin handkerchief were added to her costume.
Like many other indiscretions, this was overlooked, and the following year Miss Ordway selected Arthur Padelford from her score of admirers, and, after a remarkably brief engagement, was married to him. Padelford was enormously wealthy, and the following year the couple went abroad
There Mrs. Padelford met Carl Strictman, the famous Viennese tenor. Mr. Padelford was forced to return home on urgent business and left his wife abroad, hoping to be able to fetch her in a few weeks. While Mr. Padelford was in this country his wife was taken suddenly ill. Thinking she was dying, Mrs. Padelford wrote her husband a confession. When she returned home there was a divorce. Mrs. Padelford then adopted the name of Bettina Girard and went on the stage with the Duff company. She created a decidedly favorable impression with her beautiful figure and fairly good small voice.

BETTINA GERARD AGAIN
By Telegraph to the Times
New York, Nov. 17. Elizabeth Ordway, better known by her stage name of Bettina Gerard, who was released yesterday afternoon from St. Saviour's Sanitarium, at Inwood, on an order of the Supreme Court, has declared it to be her intention to sue for a share in the estates of her husband, the late Arthur Padelford, and of her father, General Ordway. Padelford, who left an estate valued at $500,000, asserted several years before his death that he had obtained a divorce from his wife in Austria. He created a trust estate of $400,000 for his child. Bettina Gerard has retained A. H. Hummel to sue for her dower interest in the estate of Mr. Padelford on the theory that the divorce, if ever granted, was illegal.

Sanducky Star, Ohio - Dec. 7, 1898

A CHECKERED CAREER

Bettina Gerard has joined Sam T. Jack's forces and is being featured at that theater. Miss Gerard says she is whoolly restored to health both mentally and physically and declares that she only asked for a fair chance now to hold her own.
From her position as a petted Washington society favorite to becoming a burlesque actress in Sam T. Jack's Broadway theater is quite a leap, but Miss Gerard has made the jump, and in a comparatively few years.
It is not so many years ago that she, the daughter of General Albert Ordway, was the toast of the society beaux of the national capital. then came her marriage to Millionaire Padelford, a sensational divorce, her debut in opera, several other marriages and divorces, a dive into farce comedy and imprisonment in a sanitarium. Now she is a Sam T. Jack star.

BETTINA GIRARD

She is Living in Retirement Now----
Her Marriages and Divorces Were the Talk of Two Continents.

A Denver special to a Chicago paper states that Mrs. Frances Witter, of the latter place has been quietly spending the summer at Denver. The dispatch is innocent in wording and tone and yet it recalls the life story of a woman, who has been the talk of two centuries and whose spirit got her into many difficulties and painful positions. Mrs. Witter is non other than Bettina Girard. Her career is one for the scrutiny of the psychologist.
Bettina Girard is the daughter of the late General Ordway, who died in New York in 1897, as the result of a broken heart as much as anything else. General Ordway was commander of the militia of the district of Columbia. He was wealthy, a club man and a social favorite. Bettina, or as she was christened, Elizabeth, was so beautiful that when she was sent to the convent at Georgetown the nums predicted a brilliant future made up of joy and love and well-doing. She finished her education at a private finishing school, where the society women of Washington were educated. She played and danced, and excelled in outdoor sports. In addition to this, she was a splended linguist. Her entrance into society was a brillant occasion. She was the brightest when a contest of wit was on. She was the life of a dinner. She was the one woman looked at in a ball-room. The summer following her debut, with General and Mrs. Ordway, she went to White Sulphur, Virginia's famous summer resort. At a dinner remarkable for the number of diplomats present a young attache of the French legation, who had fallen deeply in love with her, clapped his hands when a toast was proposed to her. He had taken her to dinner.

THE SLIPPER INCIDENT
"You will not listen to me," he said; " I am young, unknown. The men who pay you court are distinguished, famous. Mon Dieu, if fame would only come to me!"
"Bien," Betinna answered, "M'sieu I shall make you famous."
She sprang to the seat of her chair.
"Listen," she cried. "This gentleman will drink my health, and the health to fame."
Amid perfect silence she slipped off her satin slipper, filled it with sparking champagne and handed it to the young Frenchman. Although he blushed crimson in his embarrassment, he drank if off. Bettina snatched the slipper from him and drained another health.
It was talked of all over the country. General Ordway and his wife, scandalized, hastily left White Sulphur taking their daughter with them.
Shortly after this she met Arthur Padelford, the only son and heir of one of Boston's wealthies men. She married him. the wedding, which took place at St. John's church in Washington, was attended by all of the best social set.
"A good thing," said her friends; "the girl will now settle down."
The honeymoon was spent in Europe. They wandered happily down the Rhine, across the Alps, went into Italy and the wild spirit of the maiden seemed to have become tamed in the bride. In Vienna a child was born to them. It was over this child that they had their first quarrel. Padelford left her in Vienna, returning to this country. Many rumors followed him. As if to bring disgrace upon the name of Padelford, she decided to go upon the comic opera stage. In her debut she shared the honors with Henry Dixey. She was only twenty-one.
MARRIAGES AND DIVORCE
Divorced, she married aman named Gerard. She dropped the name of Padelford on her advertising matter upon the payment of $50,000 in cash from her former husband. And then, in quick succession, came marriage and divorce, marriage and divorce. Separating from Girard, she married Jack Rolface, a tenor who had been stabbed nearly to death a few months before by Robert Monroe. Then she became the wife of John Harrison Wolff, an actor. Then came William Beach, another actor. A Divorce suit was brought by Mrs. Philip Schuyler in which she figured as co-respondent. When it was ended Beach was divorced and Bettina added Schuyler to her already long list of names. Her father Ordway, offered her an annuity of $1,000 for life to leave the country. She went to London with Schuyler, and collapsed physically when she made her debut.
THE LAST CHAPTER
She returned to America and went into a private sanitaium, dissipation having so weakened her. It was in November of 1897 that General Ordway, Mrs. Ordway and Miss Padelford, Bettina Girard's daughter, returned from Europe to New York. They found Bettina lying deserted by her friends in Bellevue hospital. The old general shook his head when a reconciliation was mentioned; but Mrs. Ordway, the mother, pleaded with him, sobbingly. November 21 General Ordway died at the Hoffman house. Before he passed away, and due to the pleading of his wife, he permitted an interview with Bettina, and was making plans for a return to washington with her and a reunion of the family when he died.
Bettina finally recover her health and reently in Chicago she married Francis Witter, a youth just entering upon a promising theatrical career.

February 25, 1890
Pretty Mrs. Padelford, formerly Bettie Ordway,
never looked more charming than she did yesterday
afternoon seated in the parlor of her father's cosy
residence on Twentieth street. Her stage life has, if
anything, added to her attractiveness, and she is
still the same sparkling, vivacious little brunette
who was so well known in society circles here a few
years ago. .

9934 The date and place of his birth are unknown but he was probably born in England before the removal of the family to America. According to the records of Connecticut, October 8, 1663, he was to be made a freeman on the following day. There is no record of his early life in America but he settled in Middletown, Conn. His name is one of those on a granite and bronze memorial unveiled in 1905 to Middletown's "Founders, Fathers and Patriots," as one of the founds of the period from 1650 to 1680. With his wife and his brothers, Robert and Andrew, and their wives, he signed the covenant of the Middletown Church, Nov. 4, 1668, the date of the beginning of the church records. the list of proprietors of Middletown, March 22, 1670, gives John Warner, with a valuation of L96, slightly larger than that of his two brothers of the same town. His lot was on the west bank of the Connecticut River, next south of Thomas Ranney's and the middle one of five lots between the roads. he seems to have spent the remainder of his life as a farmer there.  WARNER, John (I59262)
 
9935 The date of the birth of John Avery is given as above in accordance with the record printed in Sweet's "The Averys of Groton, p. 325, but the records of the Second Church of the North Parish (Montville) show the baptism of a Jonathan, son of Samuel, Jan. 20, 1722/3. It is very possible that this Jonathan was identical with John Avery, and that he was b. Feb. 14, 1722, and bap. Jan 20, 1723. He died Aug 21, 1790. In his will, dated at Groton, June 30, 1790, he mention3ed wife, Prudence; sons, Jon, Amos, and Samuel' dau., Hannah. She d. Dec 8, 1790.

Mary had numerous Protestants burned at the stake for heresy, repealed Protestant legislation, and restored Papal supremacy in England.

CRUEL QUEEN

While Mary's strong Catholic faith gave her a great sense of purpose, it also made her obstinate and narrow minded. Many cruelties were perpetuated in her name in order to restore England to Catholicism.

9941 THE DERBY LINE

Sir John Stanley. This, the most distinguished branch of the Stanley family of England, is reckoned as descended from Sir John Stanley, the younger brother of Sir William, of Hooton, of 1397. He married Isabel, daughter of Sir Thomas Lathom, knight, of Lathom, and Knowsley of Lancashire, and thus acquired those estates. in 1385 he was made lord-deputy of Ireland, and had a grant of the manor of Blake Castle in that kingdom. In the seventh year of Henry IV, he obtained a grant in fee of the Isle of Man, with all the isles adjacent, to be holden of the said king, his heirs and successors, by homage and the service of two falcons, payable on the days of their coronation. On the accession of Henry V, he was made a Knight of the Garter, and lord-lieutenant of Ireland, in which government he died Jan. 6, 1414. He left two daughters and four sons. 
STANLEY, Sir John K.G. (I81016)
 
9942 The descent of Lucy Bearse (Austin, James, Experience Howland, John, John) from John Howland does not appear in the Elizabeth Pearson White's 'John Howland of the Mayflower, Volume 2', as there was a disagreement at the time as to whether Experience Howland was a man or a women. E.P. White wrote that "There is no proof that she married James Bearse of Barnstable, who moved to Halifax, Massachusetts. experience was considered a man until 1930(sic) when the Bearse Genealogy suggested that this Experience might have been a woman who could then have married James Bearse. No proof has been found for such a marriage.

In recent years, evidence has been found to that shows Experience Howland was indeed the wife of James Bearse. The General Society of Mayflower Descendants now accepts applications through James and Experience (Howland) Bearse and has accepted at least one through their son James Bearse Jr. and his wife Abiah Ford.

The purpose of this article is to partially fill the gap left by Elizabeth Pearson White's omission of the descendants from Experience Howland by providing the "Mayflower" descent of her great-granddaughter, Lucy (Bearse) Bryant, wife of Ezekiel Bryant of Halifax. The article also identifies Lucy and Ezekiel's three children who were mentioned, but not named, in the will of their grandfather Nathaniel Bryant.

9947 The early records contain no entries of consequence regarding Thomas Gleason, and from the little that can be gathered from this source, it would seem that he was of a somewhat arbitrary disposition, which not infrequently got him into trouble with the town authorities on minor matters of conduct.

In 1658 Thomas Gleason removed to Charlestown, and on Dec. 3, he leased from Capt. Scarlett, a portion of the Squa Sachem lands.

In 1639 Squa Sachem had deeded to the town of Charlestown, her lands lying in what is now Medford, reserving to herself certain tracts on the west side of Mysticke Pond. By her will, she bequeathed all her property to certain prominent citizens, among whom were Gov. John Winthrop and Edward gibbons. The latter secured possession of the lands on the west side of Mysticke Pond, and this was the land subsequently leased to Thomas Gleason.

Soon after this lease was made a question arose as to the rightful ownership of these lands, and in March 1662, the town of Charlestown instituted a suit against Thomas Gleason, for the purpose of obtaining possession. All of Thomas Gleason's resources were swallowed up in the litigation, and the case was unsettled when he died in the spring of 1686.
