There are two Elizabeths; 19 Richard Lyon, born about 1624, Heston, Middlesex, England, marriedMargaret ? In Connecticut. Richard died October 17, 1678 in Fairfield,Connecticut. Margaret was born about 1629 in Fairfield, CT and died in1705 in Fairfield, CT. 20 Thomas, born 1621, died 11/8/1690 20 Richard, born about 1624, died after 4/12/1678 20 Henry Lyon, born 1625, died 1703 Married Elizabeth Bateman,born 1630-32, died 1703. 20 Moses, born about 1651, died 3/2/1698.

Married Susanna. 20 Abigail, born about 1673, died March 9, 1698 [Another sourcesindicates date of death as 3/9/1698] From from Sandi Hartnell, (hartnellsl@attbi.com), see Henry (Sir) (ofRyslippe) Lyon born 1410 But note many are mentioned in Richard's will, so it seems the dates must be wrong WHSD 20 Dec 2016 Richard (1624) first settled in Fairfield County, Connecticut. He was the youngest of the three brothers who escaped from England after the execution of Charles I. It is said that they were more than just witnesses of the execution as they were soldiers in Oliver Cromwell's Model Army. It is also said that Richard brought his sword with him to America. Richard married MARGARET (no maiden name known), they had 7 sons and 4 daughters. All records state that Margaret was born in 1624 in Fairfield CT, which was mainly occupied by Belgians, Dutch and Germans at that time. The records also state that they were married in 1642 but as this Richard was in England at that time this was unlikely. It is possible that Margaret was born and married in England and came with Richard to Fairfield, CT. Apart from information in his will, little is known about Richard but that he fathered a large family and started a dynasty, with hundreds of descendants still living today all over America and Canada. He settled in Fairfield, Fairfield County, CT in 1649 after fleeing from England and was made a Freeman there in 1664, he was Commissioner for Fairfield in 1669 and at his death in 1678 left an estate valued at ?632 (a considerable amount at that time). During the Revolution they were mostly loyal to the cause of Independence. From Vermont some of them moved to Michigan '96 among these the Honourable Lucius Lyon who represented the new state of Michigan as a Senator in the Congress of 1837-39. His descendants settled in Fairfield, Redding and neighbouring towns, extending gradually northward into Massachusetts and Vermont. During the Revolution they were mostly loyal to the cause of Independence. | Lyon, Richard (I150052)

| 22508 | Richard Pennant, 1st Baron Penrhyn (1737 ? 21 January 1808) was an Irish slave owner, anti-abolitionist Member of Parliament (MP) and peer. Pennant owned vast properties in Caernarfonshire and six sugar plantations in Jamaica, where he owned over six hundred enslaved workers. He inherited half of his Welsh estate from his wife, Ann Susannah Pennant nee Warburton; the daughter of General Hugh Warburton, the other half from his father, John Pennant (Warburton's business partner). On his death, Richard's entire estate was inherited by his second cousin, George Hay Dawkins (1763? 1840), who subsequently adopted the surname of Dawkins-Pennant. Dawkins' daughter Juliana and her husband were named as co-heirs of the estate on the condition that they also took the surname Pennant (which they duly accepted). Dawkins' son-in-law, Edward Gordon Douglas, was later created 1st Baron Penrhyn of Llandygai. | Pennant, Richard (1st Baron Penrhyn) (I80519)

Protector of England, Earl of March &Ulster, Earl of Cambridge. The first to adopt the surname of Plantagenet.His laying claim to the throne of England led to the War of the Roses.The Complete Peerage v.XIIpII,pp.905-909. Son of Richard, Earl ofCambridge, a noble who had been executed for treason by Henry V ofEngland in 1415, and of Anne Mortimer, who, like her husband, was adirect descendant of Edward III. Richard thus had an excellent claim onthe throne of England, which he began to press in 1448 by assuming thelong-disused surname of Plantagenet. In doing so, he made a directchallenge to the weak Henry VI. In about 1424, he married Cecily Neville,a descendant of John of Gaunt. Having had the attainder against hisfather reversed in 1426, he was himself attainted on 20 Nov 1459. Thismade him all the more determined to achieve the throne for the House ofYork, and he died fighting the Lancastrians at the Battle of Wakefield on30 Dec 1460.

| 22510 | Richard Stout [Parents - See Above] was born in 1615 in Nottinham,Nottinghamshire, England. He died on 13 Oct 1705 in Middletown,Manmouth Co. NJ,. He married Penelope Van Princen. Other marriages: Van Princess, Penelope Internet Source:http://www.member-webroots.org/deadrelatives/allg97.htm EARLY STOUT HISTORY In 1600 in Nottinghamshire, England, an entry was made in the BurtonJoyce Parish record book telling of the marriage of one John Stout, ofgood family, to Elizabeth Bee. To this union was born Richard Stout in1602 or 1604. When Richard grew up he quarreled with his father over agirl friend whom the father considered beneath him in social standing.Consequently, Richard ran away from home and joined the English Navy.After seven years, when his time was out, Richard got a discharge fromthe Navy, and left his ship at New Amsterdam about 1640. He took uparms for the Dutch, and so was unharmed by the English when they tookover New Amsterdam in 1664. Richard found friends among some English settlers who, because oftheir religion, had fled to New Amsterdam from neighboring colonies.Among them were Lady Deborah Moody, her son, Sir Henry Moody, RichardSalter, William Browne, and Thomas Applegate. Together they obtained acharter from the Dutch governor to found the first English settlementon Long Island at Graves End. Thirty-eight others joined Richard wherehe settled in 1644 on Plantation No. 18, which he had purchased fiveyears earlier. Richard became the largest land owner of the group. Hemay have married when he settled there, if so his first wife was deadwhen Penelope Prince, a widow, appeared on the scene. When religious persecution made life intolerable for dissenters inEngland at this period, they fled to Holland and later to America. Itseems likely a Baptist Preacher, Rev. Prince, was driven out ofSheffield and lived for a time in Amsterdam, Holland, when Penelopewas born. Years later Penelope married a boy from Amsterdam, andtogether they took a ship for America. This ship was wrecked in 1640at the northeast corner of New Jersey, on a point called Sandy Hook.The passengers that could, fled overland to the settlement latercalled New Amsterdam, but Penelope?s husband, ill of a fever, was notable to go. Penelope busied herself making him comfortable on theshore when they were attacked by Indians, who killed her husband andleft Penelope seriously wounded. In fact the Indians thought her dead. But Penelope did not die. Gradually she aroused from her swoon.Suffering from a fractured skull, a hacked shoulder, and a gash on herbody which allowed her intestines to protrude, she crept to shelter ina hollow log or tree near by. No doubt she found water from a spring,and food from the bushes, for she suffered alone there for severaldays until two Indians came by on a hunt. When they saw her theyseemed to argue over what to do with her. The younger wanted to killPenelope, but the older objected, and finally won the argument, for hecame, put her across his shoulder and carried her away to the Indianvillage. He sewed her wounds with a fish bone needle and thread ofvegetable fiber. He treated her kindly and she recovered. She helpedthe squaws with their work and otherwise adapted herself to Indianlife for perhaps a year. Gradually the rumor reached New Amsterdam that a white woman had beenseen in the Indian village. When some of the white men came andoffered to buy her, the old Indian called to Penelope and made theirdesire known, then asked what she wished to do. When she replied thatshe wished to go with the men, her captor agreed but accepted the paythey offered for her. Penelope lived in New Amsterdam among some ofthe English families until Richard Stout chose her for his wife in1644. A historian of the period says that then they settled at GravesEnd on Long Island. Richard was forty years of age, and Penelope wasin her twenty-second year. About the time the English took over the rule of the town, perhaps toescape the English, perhaps seeking more land, Richard and a few othermen began exploring the main land of the New Jersey coast, near theplace where the Indian had saved Penelope's life. About 1648, Richard,with eleven others purchased a large section of East New Jersey,called Monmouth, from Governor Nichols. Richard bought lot number sixand some upland country, in all 745 acres. Thirty years later he hadaccumulated so much land that he was able to deed eighteen hundredacres to his heirs. Considered the largest landed proprietor, Richardserved as overseer of the district of Middletown. One day, not long after they founded Middletown, the old Indian whohad saved Penelope appeared at their home. When he refused to eat withher family Penelope followed him out of the house to learn what waswrong. He had come to warn her that the tribes were coming to attackthe settlement. He urged her to take her family and flee to safety inhis canoe. When she told Richard the news he refused to believe it.Penelope then gathered the children to the boat and paddled away asbest she could to seek aid at New Amsterdam. After Penelope left,Richard reconsidered and gathered the men of the settlement togetherto make plans. They armed themselves, sent the women and children incanoes to wait off shore while they prepared to watch all night. Atmidnight the Indians came. When the whites, from a point of vantageattacked, the Indians, armed with only bows and arrows, were soon onthe run. Then Richard Stout walked into the open and demanded aparley. After a conference, the whites and Indians held a two-dayceremonial to celebrate a treaty of peace. When the whites agreed tobuy the lands on which they had built their town, an alliance formutual assistance was formed. This treaty was faithfully kept. Thoughother settlements had war, this one was able to avoid it. The date ofthe purchase of the land from the Indians was January 25, 1664.Governor Nichols gave the settlers a statement called the MonmouthPatent, which guaranteed them religious and political freedom. Therewere supposed to be fifty families of whites and 500 Indiansinhabiting the area at this time. As the settlement in New Jersey grew into the town of Middletown,Richard Stout was appointed to assist in laying out the lots. In 1668,Richard, Penelope, and their family met with others in the kitchen ofthe Stout home to organize the first Baptist Church of New Jersey.Richard and John, his oldest son, were among the eighteen male chartermembers. Every Sunday the group met at the homes of its members tosing hymns. Twenty years later a log church was built. Today, a newchurch stands on the spot, but some of the materials of the old logchurch are carefully preserved, after two hundred years, in thismodern building. Richard's Will, approved October, 1705, is on file in the Office ofthe Secretary of State at Trenton. In it he gave his home farm to hisyoungest son, Benjamin. Though Richard formerly was required to reportto the agents of the proprietors in writing, he signed his will withan X, doubtless due to his age, or the state of his health. Penelope outlived Richard by twenty-seven years, dying in 1732, at theage of 90 or 110. She had been the mother of ten children; seven sonsand three daughters. By the time of her death, she had welcomed somefive-hundred and two descendants into the world. It was told of herthat she had always to wear a cap because of her scalp scar, and thatshe had no use of her left arm. Her knowledge of the Indian language,and the fact that she was a friend of the Indian who mended herwounds, no doubt were a great help to the little New Jerseysettlement. Five of Richard and Penelope?s seven sons, namely John, Richard,James, Peter, and Ben settled at Middletown or in Monmouth County. Twosons, Jonathan and David, removed to adjoining districts to the southof Middletown. The last two were the ancestors of all Stout familieswho settled in Western Virginia, so far as is known. Benjamin, a son of Jonathan, married Hannah Bonham, a descendant ofEdward Fuller who came to America on the Mayflower as the twenty-firstsigner of the Mayflower Compact. She was also a descendant of CaptainFrancis Drake, a relative of Sir Francis Drake. Five sons of Benjamin and Hannah were among the early settlers ofpresent day Harrison County, West Virginia. They were Jonathan,Hezekiah, Benjamin, Ezekiel, and Hosea. The Stout family which descended from Richard, first in America, andhis wife, Penelope, had been living in the northern part of New Jerseyfor more than a hundred years before the outbreak of the RevolutionaryWar. Only explorers or hunters and traders had yet entered the denseforests of Western Virginia. [mullens family. FTW] Richard was one of twelve patentees of what is now known as theMonmouth Patent. By 1667, Richard Stout held lot no. 64 and uplandcountry in Middletown. In 1668 the First Baptist Church of New Jerseywas organized in the Stout home. John, the eldest son, was among theeighteen male charter members. DATE 25 AUG 2001 Penelope Van Princess [Parents] was born in 1622 inAmsterdam,Holland,Netherlands.

| 22516 | Richmond Hart was born 17 February 1813, in Pennsylvania, where he died 15 May 1870. He married Mary ALLEMAN, daughter of Henry ALLEMAN, who was born 19 October 1818, in Pennsylvania, where she died 7 November 1893. They are buried in the North Sewickley Cemetery, North Sewickley Township, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, and had six children. A Genealogy of Beaver County residents contains the following reference to Richmond Hart: [John W. Jordan, LL. D., Editor, Genealogical and Personal History of Beaver County, Pennsylvania (New York: Lewis Historical Publishing Company, 1914), pages 747-748.] "Richmond Hart was one of the early settlers in North Sewickley township, where he was a land owner and a carpenter, and where he died. He married Mary Fink, who died in West Virginia, where she was living with one of her sons. They had children: Mary Jane, married Russell Wilson.....; Sarah, married Samuel Boots, and lives in North Sewickley township; Annie, married Amos Boots, and also lives in North Sewickley township; John, who died in early boyhood; Richard, a farmer in Indiana; James, married Annie Whisler and lives in North Sewickley township; Edward, a blacksmith, lives in West Virginia." The foregoing account seems to have confused Mary Hart, nee' Alleman, with her sister Eliza Fink, nee' Alleman. In the Office of the Register of Wills for Beaver County, Pennsylvania, Register's Docket 1, Page 60, is the following: "4th March 1846. The Register of Beaver County is hereby Certified & Requested not to grand Letters of Admn with the Will Annexed of Henry Alleman decd. proved the 18th of June 1836 without notice to the next of kin, as the subscriber claims a preference over certain of the said next of kin, March 4, 1846. " John Alleman One of the sons of Henry Alleman "7th March 1846. Citation issued at the Instance of Washington Alleman to John Alleman, Sampson Alleman, Henry Alleman, Eliza Fink, Mary Hart, Margaret Ecoff, Susannah Barnes and Nancy Jane Alleman to appear on the 17th instant, to accept or renounce their right to administer upon the estate of their Father, Henry Alleman, decd." The foregoing seems to establish that Mary Hart was, in fact, the daughter of Henry Alleman, which coincides with the long-held tradition among the descendants of Richmond Hart that his wife's name was Mary Alleman. It also makes it clear that Eliza Fink and Mary Hart were two separate individuals. The above account also raises a contradiction concerning the names of two of Richmond Hart's sons. His sons Richmond and Edmund Hart are sometimes referred to as Richard and Edward Hart. The Will of Richmond Hart refers to sons James, Richmond and Edmund. There is also a deed recorded in Beaver County, Pennsylvania between several of the heirs of Richmond Hart: "This Indenture made the twenty third day of December in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy between Samuel C.

| 22526 | Rob Roy "Walter (Sir) Scott is responsible for the spurious glamour which is nowattached to his (Rob Roy) name. In reality he was unscrupulous andtreacherous though there is no denying his audacity nor his personalcourage. He was not a native of Balquhidder but he leasedMonachyltruarach, at the western end of the glen, from the Duke ofAtholl, who was by then superior of most of Balquhidder. Rob was a littletoo ready to throw his weight about and the tension between the MacLarensand Macgregors steadily increased. It came to a head in 1734 over thesuccession to a certain tack, which was shortly to be renewed. It washeld by John MacLaren of Wester Invernenty, Baron Stobchon, but Rob Roydemanded that he should get the tack when the lease fell in and feelingran so high that a challenge was issued to settle the matter by force ofarms. A day was named and while the MacGregors called up all theirsupporters, the MacLarens sent over the hills to the Stewarts of Appin.The two forces met each other in the haugh below the Kirkton ofBalquhidder, but the MacGregors seeing that they were outnumbered,suggest that the matter should be settled instead by single combat. RobRoy naturally represented the MacGregors. He was one of the bestswordsmen in the country, partly because his arms were so long thataccording to tradition he could tie his garters without stooping. Heboasted that he had never lost a fight and was confident that he wouldwin this one. The MacLarens, since they had brought the Stewarts so far,and for nothing, offered them the honour of providing the champion andAlastair Stewart of Invernahyle stepped out to meet the Macgregor. It wasa sore fight for the contestants were evenly matched. Rob Roy's fantasticreach and his greater experience were balanced by the vigour and agilityof his younger opponent. (Walter (Sir) Scott who had met him, describesInvernahyle as "rather of low stature, but very well made, athletic, andan excellent swordsman."). At last Invernahyle got under the guard of thetiring MacGregor and dealt him a wound which stopped the fight. Although the wound was comparatively slight, Rob Roy never recovered fromit. He lingered on in failing health for some time and toward the end hewas visited by John MacLaren. What the purpose for the visit was we donot know, but according to tradition it was conducted with extremeformality on both sides. Shortly afterwards Rob Roy died."

Printed & bound by McCorquodale (Scotland)Ltd Margaret Maclaren of Maclaren goes on to say: "The death of Rob Roy did nothing to improve relations between theMaclarens and the MacGregors; if anything it made them worse, for RobRoy's sons held that John Maclaren was responsible for their father'sdeath and swore to avenge it. How they did so is graphicly described in aletter from Alastair Stewart of Invernahyle to Alexander Murray, who wasAtholl's (Duke of Atholl) factor. It is dated "Innernenty, 13 March 1736." "Sir, - Upon the 4th Instant their happened a most barbarous action inthis country in the hands of Rob Roy's youngest son. He came with a gunnand pistle to the Town of Drumlich where John MacLaren, baron ofStoibchon and Wester Innernenty liv'd, and the said Baron and two of hisneighbours being att the pleugh, and without any provocation, as theBaron was holding the plough, shott him in the back, of which wounds hedied that night. Tho' this wretch was the unhappy executioner, yet it is thought he wassett upon by his Brothers and others of their adherents to commit thistragicall action, as will appear by their conduct, for on the 9th, theynot wearying of their vile practices, they hough'd and killed upwards of30 stotes (bullocks) belonging to Donald MacLaren, Drover, in Innernenty,and threatened frequently to shoot himself and some others of his Clann."
