1. Re: [MDWASHIN] Dower Question-Catherine??? [1]
Please remember that dower rights were the rights of a wife/widow simply for being the wife/widow - sometimes called the widow's third, since she was entitled to one-third of her hsuband's property if he died - dower rights were not necessarily what the wife had brought with her as a dower. Prior ownership of the land is not usually an indicator of the wife's family connection. Also, many of the German regiment had Pennsylvania origins and connections.

I am looking for information about my great great grandparents. William Davis born 1826, died at Beaver Creek, MD, Washington County April 8, 1855. Married Margaret Ellen Rohrer February 18, 1845.

Margaret had two brothers Harry and Martin, and a sister Amanda that I know of. I am very new at this so any tips or information will be appreciated. Thanks Pat

In my case I have a land transfer from Ludwick Keedy to Abraham Grim. What interests me is that in all his previous sales he signs the document "Ludwig Gutting" (umlauts over u and i in both names) but this particular deed is signed "Lowdewick Keedy" and Catherine Keedy. It is obviously in the hand of the person who wrote the doc

8. Re: [MDWASHIN] Thomas Butt/Washington County [1]
I solved my questions of this nature through real estate transactions in Washington County. Wives had to be questioned separately when property sold and release dower rights. I had a marriage a year before someone died - turned out to be a much younger wife who did not mother any of the children. The first wife released dower rights on property he sold earlier and that allowed me to determine the first wife's first name at least. So if your Thomas owned property and sold it before leaving, you might be

Dear Judith, The only item I could find was the marriage of Elizabeth Haines Billingslea to John Lawrence Rafsnider listed in "Monocacy and Catoctin" vol 2 by CE Schildknecht. He gives her dates as 1834-1867 and her father as Dr James L. Billingslea. He also notes that the Billingsleas were from Shropshire and were in Carroll Co Md. Hope this helps. Nanette

Hello Alice, Park Hall was patented in 1732 by Williams Parks, It is located along the top of South Mountain at Gapland. Keep Triest was patented by John Semple, also known as Semple's Manor.

I would suggest going to do your research on a Thursday. The "big three" (Western Maryland Room at the Wash. Co. Free Library, the Washington County Courthouse, and the Wash. Co. Historical Society) are all open on that one day. If you are fortunate enough to find something pertinent in the library, for example, and need to get to the court house, one can literally run over there and get the materials you need. Of course, if you are like me, you'll get wrapped up in what you are researching in one of tho

> Can anyone hazard an educated guess as to why a German immigrant would > call his land "Keep Trieste?" German surnames were misspelled many ways and their land patents are even worse! You might try playing around with a German dictionary for possible clues, or find a German speaker who could give you some ideas. The only thing I can think of right now is that the German Troste means 'consolation' or 'comfort' - "Keep Comfort" MIGHT be a possibility.
24. RE: [MDWASHIN] Dower Question-Catherine??? [1]
Sandy,Castle Howe built 1849 is the right one. Thomas and Anne Jacques owned the land between us40/I70 and the Potomac river. We think some of it (Park Head area) went to their daughter Nancy Ann Jacques who married Rev. Jeremiah Mason. The history book say the two Mason lines from Virginia owned 3000++ ac. at one time in Clear Spring area North and West to Licking Creek. If you can send be a copy or advise were to find the patent 509a I would be very thankful. Tom Ford ps. My wife is the Mason -----Origi
