651	(Research):Kawit, officially the Municipality of Kawit (Tagalog: Bayan ng Kawit), is a first-class municipality in the province of Cavite, Philippines.It is one of the notable places that had a major role in the country's history during the 1800s and 1900s. Formerly known as Cavite el Viejo, Kawit is from the word kalawit, the Aguinaldo Shrine, where independence from Spain was declared on June 12, 1898. It is also the birthplace of Emilio Aguinaldo, the first President of the Philippines, who from 1895 to 1897, served as the municipality's chief executive. Kawit was the most thriving settlement prior to the coming of the Spaniards. In fact, the town provided the first anchorage of the Spaniards in the province, whence colonization and proselytization of the Christian religion began, spreading to all corners of the province. Bacoor, officially the City of Bacoor (Tagalog: Lungsod ng Bacoor), is a 1st class component city in the province of Cavite, Philippines. Some accounts indicate that the city of Bacoor, also named Bakood or Bakoor was founded as a pueblo or town in 1671. When Spanish troops first arrived in Bacoor they met some local inhabitants in the process of building a bamboo fence (bakod in Filipino) around a house. The Spaniards asked the men the name of the village but because of the difficulties in understanding each other, the local inhabitants thought the Spaniards were asking what they were building. The men answered "bakood". The Spaniards pronounced it as "bacoor" which soon became the town's name.	De Castro, Bebiana (I1897)

655	(Research):Royal is a village in Antelope County, Nebraska, United States. The population was 63 at the 2010 census. Established in 1890, the history of Royal began at Hering's Mill, located four and one-half miles north of the present town site. In the beginning and for a number of years thereafter, the community was known as Savage. The community was renamed after Royal Thayer, who helped establish the post office.	Cooley, Leo (I18)

657	(Research):Shropshire is a landlocked county in the West Midlands region of England. It is bordered by Wales to the west and the English counties of Cheshire (Chestershire) to the north, Staffordshire to the east, Worcestershire to the southeast, and Herefordshire to the south.	Needham, Dorothy (I665)
658	(Research):Somerset (archaically, Somersetshire) is a county in southwest England that borders Gloucestershire and Bristol to the north, Wiltshire to the east, Dorset to the southeast, and Devon to the southwest. It is bounded to the northwest by the Severn Estuary and the Bristol Channel, its coastline facing southeastern Wales. Its traditional border with Gloucestershire is the River Avon. Somerset's county town is Taunton. Dinder ("the house in the valley") is a small village 2	Jones, Dorothy (I485)
659	(Research):South Bloomingville is an unincorporated community in western Benton Township, Hocking County, Ohio, United States. Although it is unincorporated, it has a post office, with the ZIP code of 43152. It is located at the intersection of State Routes 56 and 664, slightly west of Hocking Hills State Park. Note: In the Hocking County Births journal, "So. Bloomingville" was differentiated from "Benton Township". Also note that Edna's elder brother, two years earlier, was listed as having been born in Swan Twp, Vinton County (formed in 1850), bordering Benton Twp, Hocking Co (formed in 1818), on the southeast. However, the parents, in both cases, are listed as having resided in South Bloomingville. Nelsonville is a city in northwest York Township in Athens County, Ohio. It is 60 miles southeast of Columbus. The population was 5,373 in the 2020 US Census thus maintaining city status in the State of Ohio. First settled in 1814, Nelsonville became incorporated in 1838. The town became famous for its coal mining and brick industries.	Barnhouse, Edna Maude (I30)
660	(Research):Stratford was founded in 1639 by Puritan leader Reverend Adam Blakeman (pronounced Blackman), William Beardsley and either 16 families-according to legend-or approximately 35 families-suggested by later research-who had recently arrived in Connecticut from England seeking religious freedom. Stratford is one of many towns in the northeastern American colonies founded as part of the Great Migration in the 1630s when Puritan families fled an increasingly polarized England in the decade before the civil war between Charles I and Parliament (led by Oliver Cromwell). Some of the Stratford settlers were from families who had first moved from England to the Netherlands to seek religious freedom, like their predecessors on the Mayflower. Fairfield County was established on May 10, 1666 by an act of the Connecticut General Court in Hartford along with Hartford County, New Haven County, and New London County. These were the first four Connecticut counties. From transcriptions of the Connecticut Colonial Records for that day: "This Court orders that from the east bounds of Stratford to ye bounds of Rye shalbe for future one County wch shalbe called the County of Fairfield. And it is ordered that the County Court shalbe held at Fairfield on the second Tuesday in March and the first Tuesday of November yearely.	Sherwood, Thomas (I474)
661	(Research):The H.G. Somerby Controversy Looking at the genesis of the genealogies of this individual points up some interesting facts. The first genealogy work appears to be "Memoranda of the Sears, from Minutes collected by J. Hawes and William Colman to 1800,-- and continued by Richard Sears of Chatham to 1840." There are evidently some errors in this work. "About the year 1845, the late Mr. H. G. Somerby was employed to collect data regarding the Sears family in England, and a pamphlet was issued, entitled 'Notices of the Sears Family, from Sir Bernard Burke's Works, and Somersby's Collections in England, etc.' The manuscript of his collection is in the library of the Mass. Hist. So., Boston." "In 1852, Sir Bernard Burke published the first volume of 'Visitations of Seats and Arms,' which contains at p. 52 of Part II. an account of the family, claiming that by right of primogeniture the Chatham branch is the 'Head of the American Sears Family.' This was followed in 1863, in the 3rd series of 'Vicissitudes of Families,' by a sketch entitled 'A Pilgrim Father.' "Sir Bernard Burke now repudiates the articles, and [informed me (S P May) that they would be] left out of later editions. In 1884, he wrote me [S.P. May] that he received the material from Mr. Somerby, but had since made investigation, and found 'that the details were not only not proven, but also incapable of proof, if not altogether wrong, and opposed to fact.' "In 1857, Rev. E. H. Sears published 'Pictures of the Olden Time,' to which was added in a later edition for private distribution, a Genealogy of the family. [p. 20] In his preface he states that he derived his facts mainly from Burke's 'Visitation of Seats and Arms,' and from 'family papers,' etc. Jul 1886, Samuel P. May published "Some Doubts Concerning the Sears Pedigree" in the N.E. Hist. Gen. Soc Register. About 1889, Samuel P. May was commissioned by the family to update the genealogy of the Sears family. In 1890, Samuel P. May, published his book "The Descendants of Richard Sares (Sears) of Yarmouth, Mass 1638-1888 with an appendix containing some notices of other families by the name of Sears" which included an updated and expanded view of the mistakes made by H.G. Somerby. About 1913, Samuel P. May created a typescript of what I believe to be the precursor to a second edition of "The Descendants of Richard Sares	Sares, Richard (I484)
662	(Research):Warkworth is a village in Northumberland, England situated in a loop of the River Coquet, about 1.6 km from the Northumberland coast. It is 48 km north of Newcastle, and about 64 km south of the Scottish border. An ancient bridge of two arches crosses the river at Warkworth, with a fortified gateway on the road mounting to the well-preserved medieval castle, church and hermitage. Warkworth Castle was originally constructed as a wooden fortress, some time after the Norman Conquest. It was later ceded to the Percy family, who held it, and resided there on and off (dependent on the state of their often stormy relationship with the royalty of the time) until the 16th century. During this period the castle was rebuilt with sandstone curtain walls and greatly reinforced. The imposing keep, overlooking the village of Warkworth was added during the late 14th century. It was refurbished, with much refaced stonework, by the Dukes of Northumberland in the late 19th century. The castle formed the backdrop for several scenes in Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part 2.	Wodhull, Anthony (I1166)
663	(Research):Marblehead Long before the first European settlers arrived in what was to become known as Marblehead the area was inhabited by the Naumkeag Tribe, a group of Native Americans belonging to the Algonquin Nation. Led by the "Great Sachem" Nanepashemet, they named their settlement Massebequash. But epidemics in 1615-1619 and 1633, believed to be smallpox, devastated the tribe. It was first settled as a plantation of Salem in 1629 by English colonists led by John Peach Sr. On 6 May 1635 the General Court of Massachusetts Bay established the town of Marblehead. The move was meant to punish Salem for allowing Roger Williams to express his "dangerous opinions". Marblehead residents, who never saw eye-to-eye with their more devout neighbors, were delighted, but less than a year later, the General Court reversed themselves. Marblehead finally became independent of Salem and was incorporated in 1649. Heirs of Nanepashemet would sell their 3,700 acres on September 16, 1684. The deed is preserved today at the town hall. Yarmouth On January 7, 1639.the court record refers to the land grant to the first settlers John Crow, Thomas Howes, and Anthony Thacher as "the lands of Mattacheeset, now called Yarmouth". This is considered the first usage of the name. To trace the origin of the name, it is necessary to trace the path of the Pilgrims. After all during that period it was Plimoth Colony that had jurisdiction over which Cape Cod settlements would be incorporated, and by what name those new townships would be known. Yarmouth, England, during the age of the Pilgrims, was an important seaport on the Yare River. Across the North Sea from Yarmouth , to the east is the Netherlands- the former home country of a portion of the Mayflower passengers. These Dutch passengers arrived in England via the port of Yarmouth, and therefore the naming of the new Cape township appears to be the tip of the cap to the English seaport. https://www.yarmouth.ma.us/833/History	Sares, Paul (I1293)

671	(Research):Blue Bell is a census-designated place (CDP) in Whitpain Township in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. As of the 2010 census, its population was 6,067. Blue Bell was originally known as Pigeontown, after the large flocks of the now-extinct passenger pigeons that once gathered there. The town was renamed in 1840 after the historically prominent Blue Bell Inn. Blue Bell is known for its large executive-style homes, major business parks, community shopping facilities, and small businesses. It is one of the most affluent areas outside the Main Line communities in the Philadelphia area. In July 2005, Money magazine ranked Blue Bell 14th on its list of the "100 Best Places to Live in the United States".	Villarosa, Ruth Esther (I1119)

673	(Research):Census data have been a great source of confusion for Ira Morgan Barnhouse. In three US censuses in the state of Ohio: o 1850 census for Morgan County, Noble Twp George Barnhouse and Rose Ann family Hiram, age 2 (this is an error of great consequence; this is really Ira M) o 1860 census for Noble County, Ohio George Burnhouse and Rozann family Morgan, age 10 o 1870 census for Noble County, Ohio George Barnhouse and Rose A. family Ira M. age 22 Considered as a whole, two of these three census data items are consistent with a birthdate in 1848 leading to the conclusion there was no separate child named Hiram in this family. As for 1860, descendants of Ira Morgan Barnhouse have learned that Ira was known as "Morgan" in his early years. My grandfather, Nelson Sears, wrote down that name in his journal where he had Morgan's birthdate as 14 Aug 1848.	Barnhouse, Ira Morgan (I56)
674	(Research):Confusing note on Ancestry: Pierce Kyffin mayjesse2added this on 10 Feb 2011 Pierce Kyffin born about 1858 was not a Kyffin but really Pierce Davies. His mother Catherine was a widow who married John Kyffin (also his second marriage). To confuse matters John had a son Price by his first marriage. Pierce is down on the census of 1861 as Pierce Kyffin - stepson. His elder sister was Jane Davies (also known as "Kyffin" during her childhood). Pierce followed his stepbrothers Seth & John to the USA in 1889. I think his wife was Jane Parry, They married in the first quarter of 1881. Had 5 children. My husband is descendant of Jane Davies.	Kyffin, Pierce (I1174)
675	(Research):Curtis House Inn / Anthony Stoddard Home Woodbury, Litchfield, Connecticut, USA Anthony Stoddard built what is now the Curtis House in 1735 as a home for his eldest son, Eliakim. The original structure included a second story ballroom, which served as a meeting hall and may have been known as the "tea room". In 1749 Eliakim willed the home to his son, Israel. In 1754 ownership transferred to Elizabeth and Asa, Israel's wife and son. Asa sold the property to the first owner outside of the Stoddard family in 1799. The house was first operated as an inn in 1754 by Anthony, Rev Anthony's grandson, but he does not appear as an owner of record. Over the years the inn has had a number of structural additions and name changes. Ironically, Rev Anthony's sons, Eliakim and Gideon, married two sisters whose maiden name was Curtis (spelled Curtiss in other records), but they were apparently not related to later Curtis/Curtiss owners. A Curtiss owned the property beginning in 1836, and, as five owners named Curtiss or Curtis are recorded, with possession as late as 1909, the inn has since been known as the Curtis House. In October of 1954 Estella & Chester C. Hardisty purchased the Curtis House. Estella Hardisty came to work for Sterling Dunn in 1947. She was hired as a waitress, while having 5 children at home ages 2-17. Her oldest son left for the service, and when he returned, Sterling Dunn was ready to retire, and offered the inn to Estella. She approached her oldest son Chester about purchasing the inn with her; he was a little hesitant, as he knew nothing of the restaurant business. He later told this story to his children. "I was driving down the road, and as I approached the Curtis House, I realized my initials were there on the sign. I decided then that I should purchase the business with my mother!" Chester and his mother took over the inn on Oct. 1, 1954. Chester's brothers all pitched in and did various jobs at the inn. His brother Raymond dug out the foundation for the "newer section", his brother Gary ran the inn from 1972-1983, while his brother John was the bartender, and assistant to Gary. Chester's wife Gertrude, "Trudy", worked along side Chester and Estella. Eventually, all 6 of their children would work at various times at the inn while they were growing up. There was always something for the children to do, and two remained to take over the business in 1991. Chet and Trudy's daughter, T J Hardisty-Brennan came to work at the inn in 1981, while attending Post Junior College. Feeling she could learn more from the family directly she came to work at the inn full time in 1983. She took over as innkeeper in 1991. Son Christopher, after graduating from Northeastern College in 1991 also returned to the inn, and went to work in the kitchen. He has attended many workshops at the CIA in Hyde Park, N.Y. Many of the staff working at the inn today are direct relatives of Estella and Chester. Whether it be cousin or in-law, it remains a family business.	Stoddard, Anthony (I1356)

679	(Research):Devon, also known as Devonshire, is a county of England, reaching from the Bristol Channelin the north to the English Channel in the south. It is part of South West England, bounded by Cornwall to the west, Somerset to the north east, and Dorset to the east. Devon has also featured in most of the civil conflicts in England since the Norman conquest, including the Wars of the Roses, Perkin Warbeck's rising in 1497, the Prayer Book Rebellion of 1549, and the English Civil War (1642-1651). Berry Pomeroy is a village, civil parish and former manor in the former hundred of Haytor, today within South Hams district of Devon, England, about two miles east of Totnes. It was the caput (a Latin word meaning literally "head" and by metonymy "top") of a large feudal barony whose holder is listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Ralph de Pomeroy, who held in total within Devon 54 manors, three smaller parcels of land and six houses in Exeter, capital of Devon. It was one of only eight feudal baronies in Devon. The family retained the barony until 1547. It comprised almost 32 knight's fees in the Cartae Baronum of 1166. The family came from La Pommeraye, Calvados, near Falaise in Normandy. - Wikipedia	Chapin, Katherine (I1923)

682	(Research):French to English translation (by Google) Agnes of Evreux (ap. 1040 - prob. Av. 1087), was the daughter of Richard, Earl of Evreux, and Godehilde. Before getting married to Richard, his mother married Roger Godehilde I of Tosny, Lord of Conches, and gave birth to several children, including Raoul II Tosny. Simon, lord of Montfort l'Amaury, widower of Isabella of Broyes, asked the hand of Agnes, but the count of Evreux had not responded favorably to the request, for reasons that history n has not passed. It was then that Raoul de Tosny Agnes decided to remove to get him to Montfort. Simon and Agnes could marry, and, thanks, Raoul de Montfort married Isabelle, daughter of Simon and his first wife.	d'Evreux, Agnes (I1803)
683	(Research):From McCune Family in America "The name McCune is thought to be of Scottish origin. It is the Anglicized version of the Gaelic personal name of Eogann, or Eugene as we know it. Eugene is derived from the Latin name Eugenius and it was borne by a third century bishop and martyr. Variant spellings are McCowan, McCone, McGeown, McGuone, McCown and Keown. The two distinct groups in which Scottish surnames fall are those of Gaelic origin and those of English origin. The Gaelic language came to Scotland from Ireland around the fifth centruy. Surnames of Gaelic orgin came from the northern and western area of Scotland. Because of famine and discrimination, Scotsmen were forced to leave their land and spread out around the world. Consequently, many Scottish surnames exist throughout the English speaking world. The most common Gaelic origin surname is patronymic (descending from the father) and it begins with the prefix of 'Mac', meaning 'son of'. Scottish surnames that are English in origin often take the same form as its counterpart found in England. Many of the Scottish surnames found in the northeast, the central lowlands, and the border county in southern Scotland are derived from habitation names. However, it has been shown that some names that were always thought to be typically Scottish such as Lindsay or Hamilton, were actually taken from places in England, The names were brought to Scotland by the Normans during the Middle Ages." If Charles Tarrance McCune's name is Irish then it is a variant of MacKeown which is from "Eoin", Irish for "John". So, MacEoin is "Son of John". It is one of the top 50 names in East Ulster	McCune, Charles Tarrance (I278)

692	(Research):Henry Wolcott was born in 1578 at Tolland, Somerset and died in 1655 at Windsor CT. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Saunders of Lydeard St. Lawrence, Somerset, in 1606. Henry, Elizabeth, and three of their sons sailed from Plymouth on the Mary and John . They arrived in Dorchester MA 31 May 1630. Their two daughters and youngest son arrived a few years later. Henry settled at Windsor CT in 1636. He was a member of the CT House of Delegates from1637 to 1643, and was a member of the House of Magistrates from 1643 until his death in 1655. Henry and Elizabeth Wolcott, both died in 1655, and are buried in the churchyard of the First Congregational Church at Windsor CT - http://www.wolcottfamily.com/somerset.html Lydeard St Lawrence The Lydeard part of the name is believed to be a corruption of Lidegaard from the Celtic garth meaning ridge and Old English led meaning grey. The second part of the village name is taken from the dedication of the church. From Saxon times the manor was owned by the Bishop of Winchester as part of their Taunton Deane estate. After the Norman Conquest it was granted to Wilward by William the Conqueror and known as Pylegh. The parish of Lydeard St Lawrence was part of the Taunton Deane Hundred. In the 18th century the manor was acquired by the Hancock family.	Wolcott, Henry (I1980)
693	(Research):Herndon is a city in Rawlins County, Kansas, United States. As of the 2020 census, its population was 119. It is located approximately 12.5 miles (20.1 km) south of the Kansas-Nebraska state border. Herndon was originally called Pesth (named after Pest, Hungary that later merged with Buda to become Budapest) and under the latter name was laid out in 1878. It was renamed Herndon in 1879, in honor of William H. Herndon, law partner of Abraham Lincoln. Herndon was incorporated as a city in 1906. Anotable person from Herndon was Rudolph Wendelin, Forest Service artist behind Smokey Bear.	Reilly, John Elmer (I213)

It is dedicated to a former Bishop of London and Archbishop of Canterbury. The church is of medieval origin, although the present building, with an octagonal nave, was constructed in the 1830s to the designs of John Shaw.	Pitkin, William (I1985)
699	(Research):Jane's death is even more mysterious than Noah's because the last record about her I have been able to find is the 1840 U.S. Census, Michigan, Lenawee, Seneca. There is an 1845 Michigan state census but the summary on Ancestry.com lists only head of household, namely, Noah Cooley, MI, Lenawee, Seneca. On p46 of John William Sutherland and Allied Families by Millie A. Owings we have "Jane [Sutherland](3) (Peter(2), John William(1)] was the first daughter of Peter and Amy [Sutherland] and was born 24 Aug 1787 at Nine Partners, Dutchess county, New York and died 4 July 1854. A footnote in the JW Sutherland genealogy states that "One source says that Jane died in Lockport, Niagara county, New York. Another surce says she died in Seneca township, Lenawee County, Michigan where her children lived. We were unable to find a cemetery record for her either place. This paragraph is reproduced from Noah Cooley's research notes.: Noah Cooley, son of Col Benjamin, married Jane daughter of Peter Sutherland, January 24, 1804, and located on the west side of Otter Creek, upon land now owned by Ransom Burdett. The house he occupied, built by him, stood on the east side of the old road leading from the residence of Tilly Walker to that of Peter Rice--now R. Burdett's. The cellar of the house can still be seen in the pasture about thirty rods west of the railroad. Mr. Cooley resided there a few years, and then removed to the western country where he died, Jan 11, 1856. Mrs. Cooley died July 4, 1854. [These death dates are wrong; they come from p320 in Caverly's The History of Pittsford which was also wrong about Noah and Jane's children. Mortimer Cooley just copied these erroneous data to his Cooley Genealogy p492 and p547-8]. Amazingly, in the 1850 U.S. Census Noah (aged 68) turns up back in Pittsford VT living with his brother Azariah (70) and his wife Lydia. Alas, Jane is not with him. In 2008 I went to Michigna to investigate a conjecture that she died in Lenawee or Hillsdale counties but turned up nothing in the south-central area (see Owings' footnote above).	Sutherland, Jane (I75)
