1655 - "John Redman
first appears in records of Westmoreland County, VA on 01-Oct-1655 when he was
deeded land by Thomas Youell and George Day (D&W 1/17). He was born 1620/23 as he gave his age in a
deposition in Oct 1655 as 32 (D&W 1653/9 P/43), but in a later deposition
of Dec 14, 1670, he gave his age as 50 years old (D&W 1665/77 P/107b). He may have been a son of a John Reddman,
aged 46, who came to Virginia on The Globe in 1635 (Hotten P/121), or a John
Redman, merchant of London, who, with John Neale, was granted an island in
Accomack Bay called Smith's Island in 1637 (Nugent P/55).
"He also owned land in St. Mary's County, MD, half a
mill and 550 acres, which was deeded him by William Browne of St. Mary's County
in Jan 1, 1663/4 (Arch. of MD, Vol 49 P/572).
He died in Westmoreland County, VA in 1673. His will, dated Mar 2,1672/3 and probated Jun 25, 1673, leaves
all his property to his wife, Mary, and his children (no names given) (D&W
1665/77 P/151a). The wife, Mary Redman,
was born in 1640, as she gave her age as 20 in a deposition Feb 2, 1660/1
(D&W 1661/2 P/34). John Redman had
at least three sons, Peter, John, and
Solomon Redman. Peter was the
eldest son, born about 1656-8, as his father made him a deed of gift Jul 30,
1659 (D&W 1653-59 P/139). He died
unmarried in Westmoreland County early in 1685 and his brothers, Solomon and
John Redman, being appointed his administrators Feb 25, 1684/5 (O.B.
1675/6-1688/9 P/385). After his
brother’s (Peter) death, John Redman was the eldest son and heir. He was born in 1667. Solomon Redman, the third son, was born
about 1669/70," per Historical
Southern Families’ (Vol X11) “Thornton of Virginia”
by John Boddie
Three sons listed
by Historical Southern Families’ (Vol
X11) “Thornton of Virginia” by John Boddie: Peter, John, and Solomon. Robert was listed by another source and
may not be correct.
Mary: "Mary
Redman, widow of John Redman, was still a widow Sep 26, 1673 (D&W 1665-77
P/163a), but was married (2) to Edward Franklin by Apr 20, 1675. The will of
John Harris, dated Apr 20 and probated 30-Jun-1675, makes Edward Franklin
(son-in-law) his executor and mentions his son John and Mary fforeside, ‘my
late wife's daughter’ and in case of the son's death, half his property to Mary
Franklin and her children, and half to Mary fforeside (same P/239). The son, John Harris did die and Mrs.
Franklin and Mary fforeside inherited the property, for which Mary fforeside
signed a release to Edward Franklin 18-Nov-1689, but soon after this, she
married John Spencer, who sued Franklin 07-Apr-1693 to get what he regarded as
still due from the Harris inheritance (O.B. 1690-98 P/93a).
"The above will may indicate that Mary Redman Franklin
was a sister of John Harris, or possibly a sister of his wife and an aunt of
Mary fforeside. There is the
possibility, too, that she was connected with the Sturman family, for John
Redman was deeded land by Thomas Youell (who married Anne, daughter of the
immigrant Thomas Sturman) in 1655. John
Redman, her son, after a suit against his mother and her second husband, Edward
Franklin, in 1685, chose Major Thomas Youell (Anne Sturman Youell's son) as
guardian (O.B. 1675/6 PP/425/6), and John Sturman (b. 1650, grandson of Thomas
Sturman) was one of the Trustees of Edward Franklin's will (O.B. 1698-1705
P/24). Edward Franklin, second husband
of Mary Redman, was a Justice of Westmoreland County from 1680 until his death
in 1694 (O.B. 1675/6-1688/9 P/183), was for some time keeper of Nominy ferry
(PP/175,194), and was Sheriff of Westmoreland County in 1692 (O.B. 1690-98
PP/57a, 89). He was born in 1636
(Northumberland Rec. BK 1666-72 P/17).
He died in Westmoreland County early in 1694, leaving a will (now lost)
of which Mrs. Mary Franklin, the widow, and Mrs. Frances Franklin, his
daughter, were executors (O.B. 1690-98 P/120 Feb 28, 1693/4). Mrs. Franklin requested a division of the
estate between herself and her five children (some of them being of age) on Feb
24, 1696/7, and the request was granted (same, P/229). One Feb 22, 1698/9 John Sturman, John
Redman, and Joseph Hudson were asked whether they would accept their trusteeship
under Edward Franklin's will, and the division of the estate was ordered May
30, 1699 (O.B. 1698-1705 PP/24, 36a).
Four of the five Franklin children seem to have been: (1) Frances
Franklin (certainly), the eldest daughter; (2) Philip Franklin, who appears
briefly in 1699 (O.B. 1698-1705 PP/40a, 55a); (3) Thomas Franklin, who married
a daughter of William Stewart, and (4) Mary Franklin, mentioned briefly in 1707
(O.B. 1705-21 P/48). Mary Franklin, the
widow, married (3) prior to Mar 30, 1704, as his second wife, William Moxley,
Sr., on which date they sued John Redman for her dower in her first husband's
land, and were granted it Sep 27, 1704, since ‘the sd. Mary has enjoyed in nigh
25 years’ (O.B. 1698-1705 PP/224, 244).
It is uncertain whether a Mary Franklin who is mentioned Dec 30, 1703
was the mother or the daughter (same P/212).
At any rate, Mary Redman Franklin Moxley probably died soon after 1704,
certainly prior to Feb 22, 1721/2, when William Moxley, Sr. (who must have been
extremely old) made a deed to his son, Samuel, with no mention of a wife
(D&W 7 P/270)," per Historical

Apparently moved from
Westmoreland, VA to St. Mary's County, MD about 1720, along with his nephew,
John Redman, and was guardian and uncle of John, Solomon, and Henry Redman,
brothers; children of his brother, Solomon.
In 1720, John Redman or his son, John, was accused of instigating Mrs.
Rebecca Chilton's slaves to burn her boat.
This is when they moved to St. Mary's County, MD, where John still owned
the land bought by his father in 1664.
On 27-Sep-1720, John Redman deeded his land in Westmoreland County to
his son, Thomas Redman, which was to descend successively to his son, Vincent,
then to his daughter, Sarah, and finally to his daughter, Elizabeth.

1669/70, Richmond County, VA,1 m. by 27-Sep-1693,1 Ann Unknown, d. 1707/8.1 Solomon died 1698, Westmoreland County, VA.1
"Solomon Redman, the third son, was born about
1669/70, and was married by Sep 27,1693 to Ann, on which date he and his wife
acknowledged a deed of gift to his brother, John Redman (probably some claim he
had from his father's will to the Redman land (O.B. 1690/98 PP/104, 111). Solomon Redman died in Westmoreland County
in 1698 and his widow, Ann Redman, being appointed his administratrix Jun 29,
1698 (O.B. 1698/1705 P/8a). She was
still a widow Jun 7, 1699 (Richmond Co. O.B. 2, P/414), but married soon afterwards,
Thomas Simmons, and was dead by Feb 26, 1707/8, when Simmons was sued for the
orphans, John, Solomon, and Henry Redman, by their uncle and guardian, John
Redman (O.B. 1705-21 PP/80a, 103a, and 107).
Of these three sons, John Redman seems to have moved to St. Mary's
County, MD about 1720 with his uncle, John Redman, and to be identical with a
John Redman who died there in 1736, Mentioning son John, daughter Sarah, and
daughter Pricilla Hoskins (probably wife of Aaron Hoskins (Haskins), who is
mentioned in connection with the estate) (Maryland
Calendar of Wills Vol VII P/191).
Solomon Redman, son of Solomon Redman, died unmarried in Westmoreland
County in 1719, his next of kin (i.e., brother, one would suppose), being his
administrator (O.B. 1705-21 P/369a and D&W #6 PP/502 and 602). Henry Redman on Feb 25, 1718/19 summoned
John Redman (either his uncle or his brother) to answer his petition regarding
his inheritance, apparently being just of age, so born 1697/8 (O.B. 1705-21 P/361a). There is no further trace of him in the
records," per Historical Southern
Families’ (Vol X11) “Thornton
of Virginia” by John Boddie.
Ann: On 27-Sep-1693 Solomon and
Ann acknowledged a deed of gift to John Redman, Solomon's brother (O.B.
1690/98, PP/104,111). Ann Redman was
appointed administratrix 29-Jun-1698 of Solomon's will (O.B. 1698-1705 P/8a). She was a widow 07-Jun-1699 (Richmond Co.
O.B. 2, P/414), but soon married Thomas Simmons and was dead by 26-Feb-1707/8,
when Simmons was sued for orphans, John, Solomon, and Henry Redman (O.B.
1705/21 PP/80a, 103a, and 107) by their uncle and guardian, John Redmond.

Mary: "William Stewart, on
May 2, 1711, made a deed of gift of land in Richmond County to his daughter
Mary, wife of Solomon Redman (Richmond D.B. 5, P/327). On the same date he made a similar deed of
gift to his daughter, Katherine, wife of Thomas Franklin (P/329), and on Feb 5,
1717/8 Jane Stewart, widow of William Stewart, made a similar deed of gift to
William Stewart's daughter, Susannah, wife of Henry Bruce, Jr. (D.B. 7, P/264),
which was confirmed by Solomon Redman and Thomas Franklin Aug 4, 1720 to their
sister Susannah and her second husband, Michael Winder (D.B. 8, P/9). Thomas Franklin, husband of Katherine

Redman and John Eskridge, BK 7/333.
After her death, her sons, Vincent and Redman Thornton, moved to St.
Mary's County, probably having inherited her property there.
Jesse: "Jesse Thornton, son
of William and Elizabeth (Ransdell) Thornton, was born in Richmond County, VA
in 1735, as he was still a minor Feb 5, 1753, when he chose John Redman as his
guardian (O.B. 13 P/16), and apparently still under age May 6, 1755, when
Richard Lawson, his mother's executor, brought suit in connection with the e
state against Thomas James and Edmund Bulger (same, P/238). However, he was appointed constable Jul 5,
1756, showing that he was 21 years of age, which makes 1735 about the right
date for his birth. He and Samuel
Eskridge were granted a license to keep an ordinary Dec 6, 1762 (O.B. 15,
P/33), and he and William Bragg (son of Moore Bragg) petitioned to build a mill
on their land Jul 4, 1770 (O.B. 17, P/148).
"Jesse Thornton died in Richmond County in 1778 at the
age of 43, his wife, Hannah, being appointed his administratrix Sep 3, 1778,
her securities being Vincent Redman and John Eskridge (O.B. 18, P/53; W. B. 7,
P/333). She died in 1784. On Mar 1, 1784, Moore Bragg and Sarah, his
wife, deeded to Richard Asbury (Hannah Thornton's son-in-law) 133 1/2 acres
that had formerly been owned by Jesse Thornton (D.B. 15, P/102), and the Land
Books show Aug 1784, Hannah Thorton, decd., Credit for Moore Bragg's sale to Richard
Asbury," per Historical Southern
Families’ (Vol X11) “Thornton of

There was a Stuart W. Thornton who appears for several years
in the tax lists of Richmond County from 1803 on, and may have been the

appearance of Redman in the records of Richmond was in 1786 when he witnessed
several deeds of gift from Ann (Read) Asbury to her children. He probably moved to St. Mary's County, MD
with his brother, Vincent Thornton, and then appears in GA as early as
1791. In 1793 he was in Wilkes County,
and then moved to Greene County, GA. A
contractor and builder of bridges, and his large home near Union Point, GA was
moved to Atlanta, where it is a showplace, representing old Georgia homes. Sarah: Redman Thornton's will dated Jul
11, 1825 and probated Mar 6, 1826, leaves a large estate and over 50 slaves to
his heirs. The legatees were his wife,

does not name Aaron in this will).

Benedict: A record of birth was found
in California for Benedict Stacy/Stacey by Becky Madruga; however, the MF# she
gave was incorrect. I have a copy of
the birth record and his parent's names were John and Ann. It has not been determined which John
Stacy/Stacey this is. We are now in
process of trying to locate the record to see if we can find the parish that it
came from. There is no evidence to
connect Benedict to parents as yet. A
definite linkage cannot be made until this record on Benedict is rediscovered
and this means we are going to have to go through all the microfiche records on
Maryland to find it. If you see
Benedict connected to any ancestors, please beware, he was placed there as
guesswork! We believe the John Stacey
who witnessed the will of Thomas Cooke, planter, in St. Mary's County in 1715
is Benedict's father. A John Stassy was
involved in a court judgement in 1716 and probably the same John Stacey. This John Stacey would have to born ca 1694
or before and the most likely to be Benedict's father.
"The
Stacye/Stacy/Stacey ancestral home and church are in Handsworth, Sheffield
(Yorkshire), England. The old Manor
House, Ballifield Hall, where the Stacyes lived for 600 years, is still in good
condition. An ancient mulberry tree in
the garden is still bearing fruit.
Nearby, the Parish Church of St. Mary's, Handsworth, contains memorials
and arms of the family. At the East End
of the church are graves of many members of the family. Stacy family records can be seen at the
Rectory. The Victoria and Albert Museum
have many items presented by Rev. E. V. Stacy," per C. Ray Stacy. The Handsworth Genealogy Society notified me
that Ballifield is now a Children's Home and the only large estate left in that
area.
"Benedict
was born in Maryland, married Sarah Haskins, also born in Maryland, and had
issue of several children; Benjamin, who aided and supported the American
Revolutionary War, married Elizabeth Browder; Aaron, who served in the American
Revolutionary War, married Nancy Bullock; John, who died while serving the
American Revolutionary cause; Elisha, Mark, and maybe four sisters. The Stacys migrated from Maryland to Lincoln
County, North Carolina, and finally to Tennessee," per C. Ray Stacy.
Note:
1737 - C. Ray Stacy says the Bullocks (land), Haskins, and Stacys were in the
Hopewell Forest area of St. Mary's County, MD.
Cannot find records for the Hopewell Forest area.

and has Aaron Haskins, John Haskins,
John Stacey, Bennet Stacey, and Mrs. Mary Haskins, with about 600 other
names listed. Also listed are names of Richard Bullock, John Bullock, William
Bullock, and George Bullock.
Note:
From the Compendium of American Genealogy
(Vol VII) by Virkus: "Key, Phillip (1696-1764), from Eng. ca 1720, settled
in St. Mary's Co., Md.; mem. Lower House of Md. Assembly several sessions; High
Sheriff 1744-45; mem. Council 1763-64 (apparently right up until he died in
1764), m Susanna, dau. John Gardiner (desc. Richard Gardiner, of St. Mary's Co.
Md.) m 2d, Theodosia (Lawrence) Trumphries."
Note: If
Mary, who m. Edmond Caruthers, is indeed Lucretia, then Benedict Stacy may have
been in North Carolina in 1766, much earlier than previously documented. We believe the Mary in Cannon and Rutherford
Counties, TN, who married Edmond Caruthers, is Lucretia Stacy, probable
daughter of Benedict. TN Mortality
Schedule has her born in NC and could be an error. See info under Edmond and Mary Lucretia Stacy.
