+Hannah M FAULKNER
[1657]
Although the Runk article states that Hannah's father's name is Robert. There are clues that it may have been William. Most of the land that William Voshell bought in and around Camden were border by William Faulkner lands. William Faulkner Probate of 1881 has a signed inventory of William Voshell and Peter Dill with many sales of items going to William Voshell and Samuel Faulkner. There is no memorial stone listed in Dill Books.

[LDR] Faulkner/Filmer "Agreement" 1665, Passenger List

Hello Everyone,
I am looking for a passenger list for the ship "The Agreement" which landed
at Hogg Pen Neck, Kent County, MD in January of 1665. My ancestors John
FAULKNER, wife Elizabeth (maybe FILMER), sons Francis, John & Thomas arrived
aboard that ship, he receiving headrights for self, children and two
servants. These headrights he later that year turned over to the ubiquitous
Maryland/Virginia landholder Daniel JENIFER, although it appears that one
Richard FITZALLEN was the conduit for payment of the tobacco.
Several of us (actually scores of us amounting to many Faulkners and most all
Fortners in the U.S.) are trying to determine the English ancestry of John
Faulkner & Elizabeth, his wife. Information (posthumous baptismal sealings)
at the LDS website say the three sons on board the Agreement were born in
Wales, and John and Elizabeth Faulkner are first cousins and grandchildren of
Edward Filmer & Elizabeth ARGALL of East Sutton, Kent Co, England. This
couple had other children/relatives who appear in early VA records. -- Henry
Filmer of Mulberry Island (father-in-law of Thomas "Seagull" Greene) her
brother Samuel Argall, Katherine Filmer daughter married Robert Barham, an
unplaced Edward Fellmore (headright claimed for in Northampton/Accomac), an
unplaced John Filmer in 1623 VA census, etc.
Contacts with Filmer researchers in Kent Co England, have not been able to
confirm the connection between the Faulkners above and the Filmers, though it
is likely no one has ever really looked for them in London , where there is a
marriage of Wm Faulkner & Elizabeth Filmer thought to be John's parents, or
in Kent Co, England, the Filmer seat. I've been told also that
recordkeeping during the Civil War and Cromwell's "reign" was notoriously
spotty and poor. I have also reviewed without luck Filmer related
files/books at the Library of Virginia, the University of Virginia, and the
Library of Congress.
I am interested in the passenger list because there may be other passengers
listed who could reveal connections with the Filmer family, whose English
members during the 17th Century I have an abundance of information regarding.
Via online searches, I have located only one other passenger on board the
Agreement -- an ASBURY from Kent Co England.
I am also interested in the English origins of Richard FITZALLEN and Daniel
JENNIFER, the latter I assume, perhaps incorrectly, to be the same gentleman
who soon after married Accomac Co's reigning tyrant and "Prince of Darkness"
Charles SCARBOROUGH's mistress, Ann TOFT, after Scarborough's death. Since
Fitzallen actually gave the Faulkners the tobacco, I assuming, perhaps
incorrectly, he was an agent of Jenifer.
Below is the document regarding the transfer of Faulkner's land rights to
Jenifer.
Any thoughts are most welcome,
My best wishes for the New Year,
Janet (Baugh) Hunter

I meant to say Edmund Scarborough, not Charles. I believe Charles was his
brother and a physician to the King. Jay Worrall, in "The Friendly
Virginians", about the Quaker movement in Virginia, referred to Scarborough
as an unprincipled "Prince of Darkness". He WAS quite a piece of work it
seems, and I wonder if any other early Virginia leader was in his class?
He, of course, did have the physical separation of the Eastern Shore to aid
and abet in his various "independent" activities.
My apologies for the mistake.

Janet,
I'm sorry I cannot help you on your query, but I was wondering if you happen
to have any information on Jacob FAULKNER who was living in Caroline Co, MD
in 1792? I'm especially interested to see if he was connected in any way to
the JACKSONs, PAVEYs, or the (Nicolite) ANDERSON families. Thanks.
Marsha
