Post 298 A: A Continuation of Post 297 A:
There are several mistakes on the web site http://scarborough3.htm for it to be accurate.
In this it states:
'"[Special Note#1 regarding the name "Mary Littleton"]
According to Southerland McColley on January 22, 2004 (smcc@mohawk.net): A "Mary Littleton," daughter of Sir Edward Littleton and sister to Col. Nathaniel Littleton, married Gilbert Jones,II as recorded in: Worcester Visitation of 1634, Harleian Society 90:64 (1938). She did not marry Edmund Scarborough II."'
In Post 297 I stated what I had found in the "[PCC Act Books]".
It states Mary Jones is the wife of Evan Jones. It does not state Mary Jones is the wife of a Gilbert Jones. This web site I have mentioned justifies that this "Mary Jones" is wife of this Gilbert Jones by the, "Worcester Visitation of 1634." It also states:
"The Colonel took his business very seriously. On a trading trip in 1651 to the Indians on the Delaware River, his vessel 'Sea Horse' was boarded and taken by the Dutch."
It states on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmund_Scarborough, "In 1652, Scarborough sold his seven ships (Deliverance, Mayflower, King David, Sea Horse, Holly Horse, Ann Clear, and Artillery) to William Burton of Boston."
If Col. Edmund Scarborough Sr.s' son, Edmund Scarborough II, did not own the Sea Horse in 1725 what would have been the significants of this Evan Jones and Mary Jones claiming this vessel in the "[PCC Act Books]"?
As I have already stated this web page, http://scarboroughgenealogy.org/Scarborough3.htm, states wrongly: "That this is correct is shown by an application dated 28 Feb 1633/34 by Mary Jones for a grant of administration dbn on the estate of her father Sir Edward Littleton of Henley, Salop [PCC Act Books]."
But the application was for the ship Sea Horse which Col. Edmund Scarborough had once owned, and this application was made in 1725 not "1633/34," as stated.
It States in the [PCC Act Books]: "Davis, John, of H.M. ship Sea Horse, who died in Boston, New England. Probate to Evan Jones with similar powers reserved to his wife, Mary Jones. (Feb. 1755)."
In this the [PCC Act Books] as stated on Post 297 A: It does NOT mention Sir Edward Littleton at all. It only mentions William Littleton as: "Graham, John, of Charles Town, South Carolina, bachelor. Probate to William Littleton. (May 1755)."
It almost seems this web page on "scarboroughgenealogy" is an around about shuffle to confuse or convince those not willing to look futher.
I will further state what is said in 'Southern Kith and Kin,' by Jewell Davis Scarborough, Copyright (C)1957, on Col. Edmund Scarborough. It States:
"2. Col. Edmund Scarborough, 1 the second son of Captain Edmond Scarborough and Hannah Butler Scarborough, came to America with his father. He married Mary Littleton, 2 daughter of Col. Nathaniel Littleton, in England, and patented vast tracts of land in Virginia. (Mary Scarborough did not come over with her husband, but arrived in 1640, brought over by her husband, Edmund Scarborough, of Accamac, according to Greer.)"
I am guessing "Greer" would be, (Greer, George Cabell, 'Early Virginia Immigrants', 1978.)
