    The interest in this marriage--for at least myself and Mr. Davis--is in regards to the ancestry of Beatrice Detton (Dodington) of Shropshire. Beatrice is known to have married John Thom(p)son of Sherehouse, Burford Parish, Shropshire. Thomas Thompson,
    son of Beatrice and John, married Ann Welles, daughter of Governor Thomas Welles of Connecticut. These claims are supposedly well documented and accepted in several
    sources.

    For our interest, below is a draft pedigree of Beatrice through the Broughtons, Havens, St. Owen, Tirrell, and Downton families of Salop and Herefordshire. The information has been gathered from the Visitations of Shropshire and Herefordshire, Flagg’s
    Genealogical Notes, and publications of the Welles Family Association. Other sources are identified within:

    1. Beatrice Detton (Dodington)baptized 21 Jun 1584. Married John Thompson, 12 Apr 1608, Neen Savage, Shropshire.

    2. George Detton (Dodington) born about 1552. Married about 1575 Anne, daughter off Walter ap Thomas.

    Flagg's _Genealogical Notes_ does make it clear that one of the children of Beatrice (Detton) Thomson was the immigrant to Connecticut. I had speculated here, in postings now removed, that the Anne "ap Thomas" who married George Detton was a kinswoman
    of Judith (Lukin) Ward's probable mother, Thomasine (Ap Walter or Ap Thomas) Lukin of Mashbury, Essex.

    An article by the Rev. R. C. Purton on "Detton [Family]" in _Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society_ 4th series, vol. 10 (1925-26), seems to confirm this surmise (or at least further supports it), pp. 258-59:

    GEORGE DETTON, son and heir of Robert, married Ann, daughter of Walter ap Thomas of Teyhall. In one of Wm. Mytton's MSS. (cited by Blakeway) she is described as daughter of William Walter of Kerrickhowell, Co. Brecon by Elizabeth Denton of Co. Oxon.
    She was buried at Neen in 1613. During his life-time George Detton conveyed all his lands (except Ingardine) to his son Thomas, who however predeceased him. The following letter is given by Blakeway, and was then in the possession of John Cresset Pelham:
    --

    'Right worshipfull my very hartye and humble commendacions unto yor worshippe most hartely remembred with like thankes for yor greate curtesye at all tymes. I have (accordinge to yor worshippes frendly offer) sent this bearer my man unto yow

    me. I have but too men in my howse that are able to serve the Quene, the chiefest of them I will send to morow to appear before yor worshippe, the other I know not how well to spare from my cattell, wherefore I am to desyre yor worshippe to have me
    axcused at this tyme fro hym. Thus beinge over bold of yor worshippes frenshippe I commytt yow to the tuycion of the almightye from my poor howse at Detton this present thursday the vjth of Aprill 1587

    yor worshippes to commaund
    George Detton

    To the right worshipfull Mr. Richard Cresset Esquier at Upton Cressett geve these.'

    George Detton was buried at Neen in 1619.

    Besides two sons (i) Thomas and (ii) George, of whom more hereafter, George Detton had six daughters viz.:--

    (iii) Mary, bapt. at Neen in 1576, waiting gentlewoman to Lady Newport, married at High Ercall in 1613 to Rev. Francis Garbet, and buried at Neen in 1614, leaving an infant son George, who was buried in 1617 at Wroxeter, where his father was Vicar from
    1609 to 1659.

    (iv) Frances, bapt. at Neen in 1577, married there in 1598 to Rev. William Berkeley, Rector of Clungunford, where she was buried in 1650.

    (v) Catharine, bapt. at Neen in 1579, married there in 1610 to James Wrottesley, who was assessed to Subsidy for lands in Detton in 1628.

    (vi) Elizabeth, bapt. at Neen in 1581.

    (vii) Beatrice, bapt. at Neen in 1584, married there in 1608 to Richard Thompson. I think this is a mistake for _John_ Thompson, for George, son of John "Tumpsone," was baptized at Neen the following year, and the children of John and Beatrice Thompson
    of Sherehouse were baptized at Burford from 1610. She was buried there in 1650.

    (viii) Ann, baptized at Neen in 1589, wife of Richard Griffiths.

    Ernest Flagg's book mentions the error of Beatrice's groom's first name being recorded as "Richard" rather than "John." It also uses a modified spelling of his surname, Thomson or even Tomson, I believe.

    William Mytton's identification of the parentage of Ann Detton as "William Walter of Kerrickhowell, Co. Brecon ... [and] Elizabeth Denton of Co. Oxon" is very helpful, as those were definitely also the parents of Thomasine ([ap] Walter) Lukyn, the
    probable mother of Judith Warde, wife of Edward Warde. Remember that Elizabeth was sometimes interchangeable with Isabel at this time.

    The will of Beatrice Detton's husband is this one (apparently unknown to Flagg); it mentions the couple's brother-in-law George Detton.

    Ernest Flagg's book mentions the error of Beatrice's groom's first name being recorded as "Richard" rather than "John." It also uses a modified spelling of his surname, Thomson or even Tomson, I believe.

    William Mytton's identification of the parentage of Ann Detton as "William Walter of Kerrickhowell, Co. Brecon ... [and] Elizabeth Denton of Co. Oxon" is very helpful, as those were definitely also the parents of Thomasine ([ap] Walter) Lukyn,
    the probable mother of Judith Warde, wife of Edward Warde. Remember that Elizabeth was sometimes interchangeable with Isabel at this time.

    The will of Beatrice Detton's husband is this one (apparently unknown to Flagg); it mentions the couple's brother-in-law George Detton.

    Flagg's _Genealogical Notes_ does make it clear that one of the children of Beatrice (Detton) Thomson was the immigrant to Connecticut. I had speculated here, in postings now removed, that the Anne "ap Thomas" who married George Detton was a
    kinswoman of Judith (Lukin) Ward's probable mother, Thomasine (Ap Walter or Ap Thomas) Lukin of Mashbury, Essex.

    An article by the Rev. R. C. Purton on "Detton [Family]" in _Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society_ 4th series, vol. 10 (1925-26), seems to confirm this surmise (or at least further supports it), pp. 258-59:

    GEORGE DETTON, son and heir of Robert, married Ann, daughter of Walter ap Thomas of Teyhall. In one of Wm. Mytton's MSS. (cited by Blakeway) she is described as daughter of William Walter of Kerrickhowell, Co. Brecon by Elizabeth Denton of Co.
    Oxon. She was buried at Neen in 1613. During his life-time George Detton conveyed all his lands (except Ingardine) to his son Thomas, who however predeceased him. The following letter is given by Blakeway, and was then in the possession of John Cresset
    Pelham:--

    'Right worshipfull my very hartye and humble commendacions unto yor worshippe most hartely remembred with like thankes for yor greate curtesye at all tymes. I have (accordinge to yor worshippes frendly offer) sent this bearer my man unto yow

    The Visitation of Shropshire, 1623, shows that John Dod[d]ington/Detton and Anna Broughton, and thus the St. Owen/Brewes(Braose) families, are ancestral to Anna (Holland) Doughty, the paternal grandmother of Rev. Francis Doughty, an immigrant from
    Shropshire to Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, and Virginia. Specifically, the Dodington pedigree on p.165-6 of Part I (1889) says that "Johannes Dodington" and "Anna filia Walteri Broughton de Henley" had among others "Alice uxor Wm Holland." The
    Holland pedigree on p.250-1 says that "Will's Holland de Burwarton in com. Salop." married "Alice da. to Jo[hn] Ditton of Dodington [alias Detton]" and had "Anna nupta Joh'i Doughty de Dudlick in com. Salop." John Anderson Brayton, "The Ancestry of the
    Reverend Francis Doughty of Massachusetts, Long Island, Amsterdam, Maryland, and Virginia," The American Genealogist 77 (2002):1-17, 127-136, gives Alice (Holland) Doughty as the paternal grandmother of Rev. Francis Doughty. Putting this all together, it
    appears that in addition to being the great-grandparents of Beatrice (Dod[d]ington/Detton) Thompson, John Dod[d]ington/Detton and Anna Broughton are also the great-great-grandparents of Rev. Francis Doughty.

    The Visitation of Shropshire, 1623, shows that John Dod[d]ington/Detton and Anna Broughton, and thus the St. Owen/Brewes(Braose) families, are ancestral to Anna (Holland) Doughty, the paternal grandmother of Rev. Francis Doughty, an immigrant from
    Shropshire to Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, and Virginia. Specifically, the Dodington pedigree on p.165-6 of Part I (1889) says that "Johannes Dodington" and "Anna filia Walteri Broughton de Henley" had among others "Alice uxor Wm Holland." The
    Holland pedigree on p.250-1 says that "Will's Holland de Burwarton in com. Salop." married "Alice da. to Jo[hn] Ditton of Dodington [alias Detton]" and had "Anna nupta Joh'i Doughty de Dudlick in com. Salop." John Anderson Brayton, "The Ancestry of the
    Reverend Francis Doughty of Massachusetts, Long Island, Amsterdam, Maryland, and Virginia," The American Genealogist 77 (2002):1-17, 127-136, gives Alice (Holland) Doughty as the paternal grandmother of Rev. Francis Doughty. Putting this all together, it
    appears that in addition to being the great-grandparents of Beatrice (Dod[d]ington/Detton) Thompson, John Dod[d]ington/Detton and Anna Broughton are also the great-great-grandparents of Rev. Francis Doughty.

    -Elizabeth A

    Okay, makes sense. I did remember that Rev. Doughty had some Shropshire lower-gentry lines, so it's nice to be able to connect him back further. I'm not sure about the Braose connection, which should lead to a RD, but I think others have found it
    believable.

    One further piece of evidence specifically in the Detton-Thomson line is that the 1586 will of Edward Grenville of Wotton Underwood, Bucks., eldest child of Isabel (Denton) (Grenville) ap Walter by her first husband, mentions both his "brother Ruckwood" [
    Rokewood] and his "sister Ann Detton" [possibly misspelled "Denton," at least in the recorded copy, as the writer would likely have been aware of the Grenvilles' earlier connection to Isabel DENTON].

    https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/results/r?_fn=&_ln=grenvile&_occ=&_pl=&_q=&_sd=1580&_ed=1599&discoveryCustomSearch=true&_cr1=PROB+11&_col=200&_hb=tna

    Thomas (ap Walter) Lukyn remarried to Edmund Rokewood or Ruckwood, as discussed in Matthew Hovious' article, p. 151. Thomasine had predeceased her half-brother Edward Grenville in 1581, but his will does mention "brother," not "sister" Ruckwood, and her
    widower may have been still living.

    During the last several months, there have been
    various posts regarding the marriage between Alice de
    Brewes/Baose (and other various spellings of which
    have been well documented) and Ralph St. Owen.
    The interest in this marriage - for at least myself
    and Mr. Davis - is in regards to the ancestry of
    Beatrice Detton (Dodington) of Shropshire. Beatrice
    is known to have married John Thompson of Sherehouse,
    Burford Parish, Shropshire. Thomas Thompson, son of
    Beatrice and John, married Ann Welles, daughter of
    Governor Thomas Welles of Connecticut. These claims
    are supposedly well documented and accepted in several
    sources.
    For our interest, below is a draft pedigree of
    Beatrice through the Broughtons, Havens, St. Owen,
    Tirrell, and Downton families of Salop and
    Herefordshire. The information has been gathered from
    the Visitations of Shropshire and Herefordshire,
    Flagg’s Genealogical Notes, and publications of the
    Welles Family Association. Other sources are
    identified within:
    1. Beatrice Detton (Dodington)baptized 21 Jun 1584.
    Married John Thompson, 12 Apr 1608. Neen Savage
    Shropshire.
    2. George Detton (Dodington) born about 1552. Married
    about 1575 Anne, daughter off Walter ap Thomas.
    3. Robert Dodington born about 1525. Married bout
    1548, Mary Kettleby, daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth
    (Romney) Kettleby of Stepple. Stepple acquired by
    marriage with St. George family.
    4. John Dodington, born 1490-95. Married about 1520
    Anna Broughton, daughter of Walter and Jane (Haven)
    Broughton of Broughton and Henley, Salop.
    5. Walter Broughton and Jane Haven (Hevin) 12 E. 4.
    Jane listed as coheir of John Hevin of Heuin,
    Herefordshire.
    6. John Broughton and Matilda or Isabell – daughter
    and heir of John Collyns (Colling) otherwise called
    John Brocton
    7. Thomas Broughton and Jocosa, daughter of Hugh
    Sandford. Hugh Sandford listed as “Hugonis Sandford
    militis” in the Visitations of Shropshire. Possibly
    same person as Hugh Sandford in the pedigree of
    Sandford Up Rossall in the same Visitation.
    6. John Hevin of Clybery in Salop and Hevyn (now Haven
    )in parish of Dilwyen in Herefordshire, and Isabell
    Downton.
    “Hevin belonged at an early date to a family of that
    name which remained in Dilweyn till the close of the
    16th century, although the eldest branch had
    terminated long before in three coheirs – Margaret
    wife off William Hopton; Ann, wife of Hugh Shirley;
    and Jane, wife of Walter Broughton. (Vist.

    If Clifford Stott, FASG, is reading this newsgroup it may be that, in short order, we can expect a sprawling multi-part article with at least four installments showing the common descent of Rev. Francis Doughty of Mass., Maryland, and Virginia, Thomas
    Thomson of Connecticut, and the Swynfens of Maryland ... :-)
