Dear Shirley,
This is interesting Sarah Barton, wife of William Barton of Prince George Co. was the mother of Marsham & Basil Waring Jr.
Repeat; On Basil Waring Account of 1737 payments were made
to Marsham Waring (his brother?) and "Thomas Hanna". Admin.
were Martha Waring (his wife?) and "Thomas Warren" his ????.
I wonder if this is the Thomas Warren who is listed as kin on Alexander Hanna's inventory, 1738?
Maybe a few more puzzle pieces fall in place??? (I wish).

ELIZABETH HUNGERFORD SMITH CALHOUN BARNHILL
Elizabeth Hungerford Smith Calhoun Barnhill was the daughter of James Norman and Sarah Jenkins Smith. She was born August 9, 1814 in Maury County, Tennessee. Elizabeth was named for her maternal grandmother, Elizabeth
Hungerford, daughter of Barton and Jane Warren Hungerford, descendents of emigrant ancestors Captain William Barton, Thomas Warren, William Smoot, and William Hungerford, all part of Maryland's Seventeenth Century CHARLES COUNTY GENTRY . Elizabeth's paternal grandmother, Constantina Ford Smith, was the daughter of Charles Allison Ford, granddaughter of Edward and Ann Chandler Ford who was the daughter of emigrant ancestor Thomas Allanson, Lord of Christian Temple Manor (1659) Charles County Maryland. Both of Elizabeth's grandfathers - James Turner Smith of North Carolina, and Phillip Jenkins of Maryland were American Revolutionary patriots
SCROGGIN Papers
Barton Warren, son of Thomas and Mary Barton Warren, was an heir of his grandfather, William Barton, gentleman, of Charles County whose will was dated 05 September 1717
and proved on 22 September 1717: [The Maryland Calendar of Wills, Volume IV,
Liber
14, folio 658.]
To grandsons Barton Smoot, Barton Warren and William Smoot,
granddaus.
Rachell (wife of Mathew Stone), Ann Smoot, Mary Hungerford, Eliza: (wife of Charles Philpott), Eliza (wife of John Neale), personalty To 3 youngest child. of dau. Margaret Miller, half residue of estate, and to Thomas
and Barton (sons of grandson Barton Smoot), the other half
Exs.: Dau. Margaret Miller and grandson Barton Smoot, jointly
Test: Wm. Howard, John Jones, Jno. Willard.
Since she was not named as an heir, Mary Barton Warren died before William Barton wrote his will. The fact that William Barton did not name Elizabeth Warren Scrogin as a
legatee may not be particularly pertinent as it appears that William Barton did not include all of his grandchildren as heirs in his will. His granddaughter and heir Elizabeth Philpott may have been Elizabeth Smoote Philpott.

Thomas Warren and Mary Barton had a son, Barton Warren, date of birth not established. In his Will (Jan 6, 1708)Thomas Warren requested that "My son be regarded of age when 18 years old." They had a daughter Elinor Warren b
Mar 7, 1690. Thomas Warren's second wife was Jane Unknown. Their children were Thomas, Sarah and unborn child. It is not clear in Mrs. Bowling's (author of Meet Your Ancestors--Philpott book) deductions if Thomas Warren's mother was Elinor Smoote, daughter of Richard Smoote. Does anyone know?

Me too - he is the son of Thomas Warren & Mary Barton - the one with the brother Thomas, Sister Elizabeth who married George Scoggins & ?brother Humphrey Warren
that I have been posting about. Thomas married Jane after wife Mary Barton Warren died. Jane was the mother of his last child/children. Barton Warren was called out in the will of his Grandfather - Mary Barton's dad. Grandpa
Barton didn't name all his grandchildren - just a select few.

We find out about John in the will of his Father-in-Law, Peter Lemare. It reads as follows.
Will of Peter LEMARE (LAMAR) of Virginia and Maryland
Submitted by Sonya Neal Murphree.
In the Name of God, Amen. That whereas I Peter Lemare, of this County Calvert and province of Maryland, planter, being very sick and weak of body but in good and sound perfect sense and memory, do here make my last will and testament renouncing all other wills before this present item.
I give and bequeath my Soul into the hands of Almighty God who gave it to me, trusting in and through the merits of Jesus Christ to have free pardon of all My Sins and to have a Joyful Resurrection at the last Day and what worldly estate it hath pleased God to bestow upon me I give and bequeath as followeth.
That after my funeral expenses and debts that my moveable estate shall be counted and that it shall be equally divided amongst my loving wife Frances Lemare and my three daughters as namely Ann Lemare, Mary Lemare and Margaret Lemare and that they shall have their equal portion at the age of sixteen years or on the day of their marriage.
I also give and bequeath to my loving wife, the Plantation whereon I now live during her natural life and after her decease to be equally divided amongst my three daughters before named, my daughter Margaret shall have the first choice.
I also give and bequeath unto my grandchild Peter O'Neill that plantation with all the land on the Western side of that branch whereon now Joseph Edwards lives --- and that he shall possess and enjoy the same when he shall attain to the age of one and twenty years, and also that my son-in-law Jo O'Neill shall possess the said plantation as soon as Joseph Edward's lease is expired and that he shall enjoy the same till the said Peter O'Neill shall come to the age aforesaid.
And further do I appoint my good and loveing friends Jo DAVIS and Joseph Edwards to be my trustees and to execute according to this my last wish and testament. So committing all to the Almighty God I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my seal this 9th day of October 1693.

NOTE: For many years I and many others believed John's given name was Joseph, based on a previous version of Peter Lamar's will, which mentioned John as Jos O'Neill. This will shows him as Jo O'Neill which was an abbreviation for John. Note that John Davis is also referred to as Jo Davis, while Joseph Edwards is referred to as Joseph.
Note: 1693: Peter Lemar and John Oneal were listed as owing the estate of Henry Brent, CA.
Admin.: Richard Marsham.
Note: 5/28/1703: Admin. accts. of Henry Brent, CA. List of bad debts: Peter Lamar (dead). John Oneal (runaway).
From the will we already know that John was granted the right to live on the land willed to Peter until Peter became of age and then the land would revert to the son. From the notes found by Linda Reno we know that in 1693 Peter Lamar and John O'Neale both owed money to the estate of Henry Brent. When the will was administered in 1703 Peter Lamar was dead and John O'Neal was nowhere to be found. He had run away from the debt, while his son Peter was living on the land willed him by Peter Lamar. Where did John go, and if he had a son John, why haven't we found any records of him?
Could John have fled to Virginia to escape his debt? I have found the following records in the Chronicles of the Scotch-Irish Settlement in Virginia, Volume I
AUGUSTA COUNTY COURT RECORDS. ORDER BOOK No. I.
MAY 22, 1747. Page 204 John O'Neal died at house of John Preston and his estate so inconsiderable--none will admr., and sheriff ordered to sell.
This seems consistent with someone fleeing from debt. In addition there are numerous records of O'Neales in Virginia, including a John O'Neale, who died in 1757, leaving an orphan son Thomas.
Additional Notes and Speculations: Rose Maria O'Neale was the Great, Great Granddaughter of John O'Neale. (John, William, Laurence, John, Rose) In the book REBEL ROSE, LIFE OF ROSE O'NEAL GREENHOW, CONFEDERATE SPY by Ishbel Ross, on Page 3, we find the following statement. "As an adult Rose boasted of having Revolutionary blood in her veins. To prove it she traced her Family Tree back to a Roman Catholic Colonist who landed on the Western Shore in 1634."
If this should prove to be the case we can probably guess that the progenitor of our line in America was John's Father or most probably his Grandfather. I base this statement on John being born in 1670. If John's father was between 20 and 40 when John was born, we can place his birth between 1630 and 1650. This would mean that he either arrived on the Western Shore as a child, or that he was born in America and his father (John's Grandfather) was the was the colonist who arrived on the western Shore in 1634.
1) I have been searching ship's lists and the only possibility I have found so far is a Johnathan Neale, who left England on July 4th, 1635, in the Ship "Transport," He was 12 years old. This information came from "Hotten's List."
2) More on "Hotten's Lists" The Original Lists of Persons of Quality; Emigrants; Religious Exiles; Political Rebels; Serving Men Sold for a Term of Years; Apprentices; Children Stolen; Maidens Pressed; and Others Who Went from Great Britain to the American Plantations 1600-1700. From Mss. Preserved in the State Paper Department of Her Majesty's Public Record Office, England. Edited by John Camden Hotten. Chatto and Windus, Publishers, London, England, 1874. (Also reprinted by G.A. Baker & Co., Inc., New York, 1931.) Notes: This book provides a transcription from a wide variety of original source lists. Some are lists of those having taken the required oath of conformity
and allegiance to the Church and Crown. These lists are for those embarking on specific ships, with dates of embarkation given (often well ahead of the actual date of sailing, which is rarely specified). Other lists provide other information regarding emigrants and matters of general interest, but also do provide some scattered information about ship voyages for people listed. Many of the "passenger lists" I am including are compiled from those miscellaneous individual entries.
3) Debby O'Neal has found a document stating that Smith's Island, Maryland, was first granted to J. O'Neale in 1636. Could this be the same person referenced in Item 1 above?

There was also a John Neale living in Virginia in the 1630's. He was a member of the House of Burgess and attended sessions January 6, 1639 and January 12 1641. Then in 1685 a Christopher and Richard Neal, attended sessions. The Johnathon Neale mentioned above may be related to these Neale's. Source: http://www.ls.net/~newriver/va/vareg1.htm
