Rose ~ Addition to Mr. Richardson's Magna Carta Ancestry, pa

Legg inn av Gjest » 16 feb 2006 21:45:02

Regarding Thomas Gerard (1608-1673) Mr. Richardson wrote that "He married
(2nd) ROSE ______, widow of TUCKER. They had no issue." As I am a descendant
of this Rose by one of her previous husbands I wanted to fill in some detail
of her life.

Rose (-------------)
born say 1630 [aged 80 or thereabouts on 8 Jul. 1709]
died testate between 1 Dec. 1712 and 28 Jan. 1712/3 at Gerrard's Reserve (in
Lower Machadoc), Westmoreland County, Virginia
married (1) by 15 Aug. 1657 Thomas Sheppard of Northumberland County,
Virginia
married (2) by 23 Aug. 1664 [Mr.] John Tucker of Tucker's Hill (in Cople
Parish), Westmoreland County, Virginia. He died testate between 5 May 1671 and
31 May 1671.
married (3) by 28 Jan. 1672/3 Thomas Gerrard, Esq., of Gerrard's Reserve (in
Lower Machadoc), Westmoreland County, Virginia. He died testate between 28
Jan. 1672/3 and 19 Nov. 1673.
married (4) between 12 Apr. 1676 and 16 Mar. 1676/7 John Newton the Elder,
Mariner, of Lower Machadoc, Westmoreland County, Virginia. He died testate
between 21 Dec. 1696 and 28 Jul. 1697.

By her second known husband John Tucker, Rose was the mother of [Mr.] John
Tucker, Gerrard Tucker, Sarah Tucker (wife of William Fitzhugh), and Rose (wife
of Ebenezer Blakiston. By her fourth known husband she was the mother of
Thomas Newton (aged 31 or more thereabouts on 8 Jul. 1709).

By her fourth husband, John Newton, she was also mother of Elizabeth,
b. 1685 Westmoreland Co, VA, and d. 22 Feb 1763 also in Westmoreland
Co. She m. (1) Thomas Gilson, and (2) Capt. Benjamin Berryman, who was
b. 7 Dec 1669 Westmoreland Co and d. bef. 27 Aug 1729. John Newton
also had Gerrard and Benjamin, but he had three other wives besides
Rose, and I don't know the maternity of Gerrard. He had one son with
each of his two of his other wives (Benjamin and Joseph)

I have that Rose's maiden name was Allerton, but have not located any
proof or further information on that score. I did not know of her
first marriage to Thomas Sheppard. She was already about 30 by the
time she married for the first time (I have a birthdate for her of
1627)!

Sorry, I really confused the children of John Newton. To clarify:

1st wife: Joan Barr with one son, John
2nd wife: NN with one son, Joseph
3rd wife: Rose with issue, Thomas and Elizabeth
4th wife: Elizabeth, widow of Laycocke, with one son, Benjamin

He also had a son Gerrard, but I don't know who his mother was.

If John Newton, Rose's 4th husband, died in 1696/7, and Rose died
1712/3, it seems to me that he cannot have married a 4th time
subsequent to their marriage - unless they divroced, which I think
unlikely at that time and place.
