1302 I1421  Hywel Dha    910  950  [dunbar_tree.FTW]

Hywel "journeyed to Rome in 928 and is styled `king of all the Welsh.' His
position enabled him to undertake a reform of Welsh law, for which
posterity gratefully remembered him; the representative gathering which met
at Whitland to receive the new code is without a parallel in the early
annals of Wales, and the `law of Howel', amplified and re-edited by
generation after generation of Welsh legists, became the standard of tribal
and personal relations throughout the country. In its precision and
subtlety, it has been held to be the greatest intellectual achievement of
mediaeval Wales."{-Encycl.Brit.,`56,23:291-2} See extended discussion of
him and his times in "A History of Wales," John Davies (New York: Penguin
Books, 1993), Chapter Four.

1316 I3851  Jackman  Angier March  2 Mar 1813    Unattributed:
JACKMAN, A. M., of Barre, son of Abel and Dorothy (True) Jackman, was born in Corinth, March 2, 1813. His father came from Salisbury, Mass., and was one of the early settlers of Corinth. The son, left an orphan at an early age, went to Barre and learned the trade of wool carder and cloth dresser. His opportunities for education were limited to the common schools of Corinth and a few terms at Barre district schools. Working with untiring industry and living prudently, laying up and not squandering the liberal wages he received, he was enabled in 1836 to hire and three years after to purchase the mill in which he was employed, and he conducted his business until the factory was destroyed by fire in 1853. In February, 1856, Mr. Jackman bought an estate in Barre. Much of this he has sold, and this portion of the property is now occupied by the thriving village of Barre. When he commenced his business everyone, with perhaps the exception of the doctor, lawyer and clergyman, wore homespun, the product of the family loom, woven and fashioned in the home circle, and there was but one cloth manufactory in the state, that of Governor Paine of Northfield, the only product of whose mills was exclusively indigo blue broadcloth. Mr. Jackman has lived to see an entire change in the population of the town of Barre, and he is the only one that remains of the bygone generation of Barre village. He took to wife, April 11, 1837, Christina, daughter of David and Delia (French) French. Their union was blessed with four sons and one daughter: Orvis French (a soldier of the Union, deceased in 1885), John, George W., Eveline (Mrs. F.H. Roberts), and Charles Edgar (deceased). Mrs Jackman departed this life in 1885. Mr. Jackman has always been a Democrat, and has taken an active interest in town and county affairs. For twenty -five years he was sheriff or deputy sheriff and also justice of peace. He was strongly in favor of a resolute prosecution of war for the preservation of the Union, and one of his sons lost an arm in the service. Mr. Jackman carries the cares and labors of his four score years bravely, with form still erect and his mental faculties unimpaired.

Brattleboro: Transcript Publishing Company, 1894, p 219 Henry A. JACKMAN, of East Corinth [Orange County, Vermont], was born 18 February 1829 in Barre [Washington County, Vermont], son of Winthrop T. and Mary (ELKINS) JACKMAN. His mother died when he was four years old and for two years he resided with an aunt, then he was compelled to push his own way, working on a farm until he was twenty-one and obtaining such instruction as the winter terms of the district school afforded. After attaining his majority he went to Boston [Suffolk County, Massachusetts] where he remained nine years engaged in teaming. At the commencement of the Civil War [which began in April 1861] Mr. JACKMAN enlisted in the Second Massachusetts Light Battery. This battery was the first stationed at Baltimore and afterwards sent to Fortress Monroe and witnessed the naval contest between the Monitor and Merrimac. Soon after he accompanied the command to Ship Island and New Orleans in General BUTLER's expedition. He was present at the first attempt of FARRAGUT to capture Vicksburg, and afterwards participated in almost all the battles and hostile expeditions in the department of the Gulf including the successful attack upon Mobile. When his term of service expired he promptly and patriotically re-enlisted as a veteran volunteer, and with his command marched from Mobile to Montgomery and thence to Vicksburg, where he remained until honorably discharged in August 1865, after more than four years of active and continuous service, during the latter part of which he acted as quartermaster sergeant. Soon after his discharge he came to East Corinth, and in company with his brother purchased and carried on the grist mill in that place for four years. In 1876 he moved to Topsham [Orange County, Vermont] and engaged in the manufacture of bobbins and spools and to this end he has just erected a plant that promises much for the future prosperity of the community. He is an ardent Republican, a man of few words, but prompt, decided and resolute in action and with a persistence that in the end is bound to succeed in whatever he undertakes. He has always avoided rather than sought office, as the demands of his business are imperative. For several years, however, he served as selectman and represented Topsham in the House in 1876. He is a member of the Grand Army of the Republic, and for two years served as commander of Ransom Post No. 7, of East Corinth. In October 1869 at Bradford [Orange County, Vermont] Mr. [Henry A.] JACKMAN was married to Mrs. Nancy (CROWN) ROWLAND, and four children have been born to them: Alfred C., Winthrop T., Henry A. Jr., and Mary E.  bratt01

"Will of Anneke Jans Bogardus ---In the name of the Lord, Amen. Know all men by these presents, that this day, the 29th of January 1663, in the afternoon, about four o'clock, appeared before me, Derrick Van Schelluyne, notary public, in the presence of the witnesses hereafter mentioned, Anneke Janse, widow of Roeloff Janse, of Master Land, and now lastly widow of Reverend Everhardus Bogardus, residing in the village of Beverwyck, and well known to us, notary and witnesses; the said Anneke Janse lying on her bed in a state of sickness, but perfectly sensible and in full possession of her mental powers, and capable to testate, to which sound state of mind we can fully testify. The said Anneke Janse considering the shortness of life and certainty of death and uncertainty of the hour or time, she, the said Anneke Janse, declared after due consideration, without any persuasion, compulsion, or retraction, this present document to be her last will and testament, in manner following; First of all recommending her immortal soul to the Almighty God, her Creator and Redeemer, and cosigning her body to Christian burial, and herewith revoking and annulling all prior testamentary dispositions of any kind whatsoever, and now proceeding anew, she declared to nominate and institute as her sole and universal heirs her children, Sarah Roellofson (sic), wife of Hans Kierstede; Catrina Roeloffsen, wife of Johannes Van Brugh; also Jannetje and Rachel Hartgers, the children of her deceased daughter Fytje Roeloffsen, during her life the wife of Peter Hartgers, representing together their mother's place; also her son Jan Roeloffsen, and finally William, Cornelius, Jonas and Peter Bogardus, and to them to bequeath all her real estate, chattels, money, gold and silver, coined and uncoined, jewels, clothes, linen, woolen, household furniture, and all property whatsoever, without reserve or restriction of any kind, to be disposed of after her decease and divided by them in equal shares, to do with the same at their own will and pleasure without any hindrance whatsoever; provided never the less with this express condition and restriction that her first four children shall divide between them out of their father's property the sum of one thousand guilders, to be paid to them out of the proceeds of a certain farm, situate on Manhattan Island, bounded on the North River, and that before any other dividend takes place; and as three of these children at the time of their marriage received certain donations, and as Jan Roeloffsen is yet unmarried, he is to receive a bed and mulch cow; and to Jonas and Peter Bogardus she gives a house and lot situated to the westward of the house of the testatrix in the village of Beverwyck, going in length until the end of a bleaching spot, and in breadth up to the room of her, the testatrix, house, besides a bed for both of them and a mulch cow to each of them, the above to be an equivalent of what the married children have received. Finally, she, the testatrix, gives to Roeloff Kierstede, the child of her daughter Sara, a silver mug; to Annetje Van Brugh, the child of her daughter Catrina, also a silver mug; and to Jannetje and Rachel Hartgers, the children of her daughter Fytje, a silver mug each; and to the child of William Bogardus named Fytje also a silver mug; all the above donations to be provided for out of the first moneys received, and afterwards the remainder of the property to be divided and shared aforesaid. The testatrix declares this document to be her only true last will and testament, and desiring that after her decease it may be supersede all other testaments, codicils, donations, or any other instruments whatsoever; and in case any formalities may have been omitted, it is her will and desire the same benefits may occur as if they actually had been observed; and she requests me, notary public, to make one or more lawful instruments in the usual form of this, her, testatrix, last will and desire.
Signed, sealed, and delivered at the house of the testatrix in the village of Beverwyck, in New Netherland, in the presence of Ruth Jacobse Van Schoonderweert and Evert Wendell, witnesses."

NOTE: It has been widely published that Richard Johns of King William Co., VA was the son of Roger Johns of Northampton Co., VA. This is not believed to be true. There is no proof that Roger Johns had children.

The name of WILLIAM JOHNS' wife is unknown. It is very likely that she introduced the name LOCKEY into this branch of the JOHNS family.

1350 I3363  Johns  William  Abt 1708  Abt 1787  WILLIAM JOHNS was born about 1708. He was probably the son of William Johns of St. John's Parish, King William County, Virginia. Conclusive proof for this connection remains elusive. WILLIAM JOHNS first appeared in Goochland County, Virginia in 1744 when he witnessed a deed in Southam Parish. In 1745 he purchased land from Stephen Sanders on the south side of the James River in Southam Parish. Southam Parish fell into the newly formed Cumberland County in 1749. Per Cumberland County records, WILLIAM JOHNS was a farmer and ordinary keeper. He remained in Cumberland County until 1752 when he moved west to Albemarle County. He eventually settled north of the Appomattox River in a portion of Albemarle County that became Buckingham County in 1761. Unfortunately, early records for Buckingham County were lost in a fire. As a result, information about the later years of WILLIAM JOHNS, including his date of death, is scarce. He was on the 1773 and 1774 Virginia tithe list from Buckingham County and in 1783 he filed a Virginia Public Service Claim in Buckingham County for goods and services provided to troops during the Revolutionary War. It is presumed that he died about 1787, when his son William Johns, Jr. ceased to affix 'junior' to his name.

WILLIAM JOHNS was first married to Ann, as proved by several county documents. Her maiden name is believed to have been Merryman. WILLIAM and ANN MERRYMAN JOHNS were the parents of seven sons and four daughters. It is possible that there were other daughters who have not been discovered. Their children married into the Terry, Turner, Tinsley, Sanders, Glover, Gannaway and Jones families. Their grandchildren married into the Trigg, Nash, Winston, Spencer, Gilliam, Fuqua, Farris, Stith, Martin, Lanier and Walker families. Some of these families also had roots in St. John's Parish, King William County, Virginia and may have been long time acquaintances of the Johns family. It appears that WILLIAM JOHNS married for a second time in the mid 1760s. The identity of the second wife has not been found.

Many of WILLIAM JOHNS' descendants moved west to Tennessee, Kentucky and Missouri, while others settled in North Carolina, Mississippi and Texas. Several of his grandchildren remained in Buckingham County, north of the Appomattox River near the town of New Store, until the mid 1800s and probably lived on land that he owned. Many descendants, although only a few with the name Johns, continue to live in piedmont and southside Virginia.
