Jo, the house sits off the road. You have to turn into a dirt lane. There
are a couple old Hemlock trees and right after that the lane turns to the
left and you can see the house. It is not easy to see .... I spent a lot of
time there as a kid and I missed it the first time I went back a couple years
ago. There are some very nice, new homes built on what was once our hay field.

Hi Bill,
I don't have an ANN nor have I done any research in Calvert. I have done a
fair amount in DE, SE PA, and in Kent and Cecil. It is so hard when the name is
a common one.
These colonial grandmothers are tough to trace.
Regards,
Bev W

I would say that John Paybe is related to both. The two Benjamins are:
Benjamin N Payne married Mary Cathcart 16 Jan 1829
Benjamin Payne married Eleanor and moved to Kentucky about 1846.
>From the land records:
Benj appointed John Payne his attorn
Cathran Hagon and Patrick Hagon are listed in the 1776 census for
Susquehannah Hundred and Bush River Lower Hundred respectively, Harford
County, MD.
Henry Hagon signed an Oath of Fidelity in Harford County in 1778.
I would like to know if these three are related and if Patrick had a family.
Any help is appreciated.

That sounds good, but I don't think it is correct, simply because of the difference in ages. This William was born in 1846, or thereabouts. I found William in the home of John and Eleanor Payne in 1850 census. I was hoping that I could find a link between John and Benjamin, but on further looking at census information, there has turned out to be 2 Benj. Payne....

I'm sharing this with the whole list to help everyone understand the value of
land records to trace your ancestors, especially in the pre-1850 time period
when the census records do not give family members' names and there are not
many other records. Before people recorded births, marriages, and deaths, they
accurately recorded land ownership.

WILLIAM F.PAYNE was born 1846. He married ELIZA J. NORRIS, daughter of EDWARD NORRIS and ELIZABETH SEITZ. She was born 1846 in Harford Co, MD.
Who are his parents???
Hi...
I am looking for a possible connection to my 4th ggrandmother, Elizabeth Wood
Verlenden, who was born in MD in 1789. While Elizabeth was married at St.
Mary Anne's Parish in Cecil Co. in 1809 and eventually moved to PA. We find her
in Harford Co. Md. with one of her daughters (John and Martha Verlenden Yates)
in the 1850 census. I am researching the possibility that Elizabeth could
have been the daughter of John Wood and Sarah Bailey Wood who married in Harford
in 1783.
Elizabeth named her
Good Morning Harford Gang,
I've something bugging me and since I live in Florida now, it is hard for me
to spend enough time in Harford County to do any real research. Or
Baltimore County for that matter as at this time, the area may have been Baltimore
County!
My grandparents Henry and Willie Lou Graham Crouse purchased a farm in
Pylvesville, Upper Harford in about 1924. It is located not too far from St.
Mary's Catholic Church on Claremont Mill road....think that is how it is spelled.

Now you have my head spinning! The children think its funny to watch mama plot these types of things on the dry erase board, until it makes sense and I put it to paper.
Q: are they related/descendents of THE Benjamin Payne that married Charlotte Norris??
That is the link I was looking for, sigh.
You really are something with all these land records, are you having fun? Isn't it like a puzzle, except I'm really not doing anything to solve it?
Kudos, to you, for all your hard work!

Bettie,
I loved your description of the old house!
Many of the deeds for Harford County are now on-line.
Henry and Willie Lou Crouse bought the land on 14 Nov 1923 from Walter and
Nannie Bailey and sold the 156.75 acres to August and Lillian Kozlovsky on 15
May 1950. It appears that the Baileys bought it on

Bev,
The land records are a good source of info. I looked in Harford County, but
did not find any Verlenden (or Ferlenden). I looked in Cecil Co for 1674-1810
and 1838-1850 and did n
Hello:
My ancestor, William McComas-2 (s/o Daniel-1 & Elizabeth) was placed
with a John Warfield in 1705, after his father had died in 1699 and the
Mother could no longer care for the children. Is there a possibly a
kinship with the Warfield family? Other children were placed with
Stephen Gill/McGill (John, Alexander, and Daniel-2), my William with John
Warfield; and Elinor with the Stephens family. To date, no further
information has been found about Elinor.
It is possible that Daniel McComas is
Bettie - I'm headed out that way this afternoon and will go right by
Clermont Mills Road. Will take a detour and see if I can find an old house

Hello All,
I came across a book recently titled "The Beginnings of Lord Baltimore's
Plantation in Maryland" that was written c1634. The wording is still in the
old English so it's a bit of a hard read, but a fascinating account of life
at that early time on the "frontier". My Nowland family came over in to MD
in the late 1600's so it is especially interesting to see what they had to
deal with at that time. I have scanned the book and placed it on my web
site for anyone who is interested. It is at

Not a problem. Not sure I'm ready for more Baldwin anyway. Have you seen
all of the ones in Howard County? Bet they are related as well.

Bev,
Sorry I can't help you with your search but I do have a question.
I have a Thomas Dorsey, B 1769, who married an Ann Wood, B 1785 (dates
established via 1850 Calvert County, Maryland Census) . Would you know
anything about this Ann Wood?
