0001 Almost “Gowen/Going” variations . . . but probably not

Almost Gowen/Going/Goyen/Goin, etc, but probably not – Last Names:

These are names that are “close” to being variations of Going/Gowen, etc, but are probably not.  I have reviewed many of these to see if they were possibly a transcription error, in case a clerk misspelled the name in copying the info from one book to another.  Likely a vast majority of these below are not in the Going/Gowen line, but they are worth reviewing just in case.  These are basically guesses that may be related.  I looked for possible misspellings of the surname from sources I ran across that look like a Going-type name, but are not.  Some “may” be transcription errors.  Most will not lead anywhere and are probably spelled correctly, but I wanted a list of these entries so they can be searched and compared in case something in the entries indicates it is a misspelling:

(Names to avoid – already confirmed that they are not Going or Gowen, etc, misspelled):

Henry Soane (Soane surname):  Henry Soane was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses.  He shows up in several land transactions in Virginia – not a Going variant – not a misspelling – see:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Soane

George Goring, Charles Goring, or Lord Goring:  The Gorings were English.  George a member of Parliament – he had at least two sons, George and Charles, who show up in searches in the Virginia Library due to correspondence regarding tobacco production, etc. Not a Going variant or misspelling.   See:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Goring

*Names to Review:

1616 – William Gainye arrived on The George – On October 13 of 1626, Thomas Spelman, William Gainye, William English, and Frances Mason appeared in court in James City and were granted permission to “goe for England”. No reason for the visit is found. Mason and Gainye had family connections, Ganey had also arrived on The George in the 1616 (Dorman, p. ) with Thomas Spelman. Ganey petitioned Governor Wyatt in 1623 for wages and reimbursements owed to him by the deceased Captain Nuse, describing himself as an employee of Nuse who had paid the debts and wages to other employees since Nuse’s death, indicating he may have been an accountant for the Company Land at Elizabeth City. (Jefferson Papers, Vol. 4, p. 455-456) Ganey’s 200 acre land grant describes him as a mariner seated at the harbor of the Hampton River, near Spelman’s plantation. In various records, William Ganey is listed as arriving on the The George, The Bona Nova, and The Treasurer, which could indicate business travel. Records do not indicate that these men were with Spelman when he died shortly after arrival in County Cornwall, England.

1625 May 11: Beale and Leonards versus Rastell and Griffith. 128-124. Examination of Thomas Hamonds age 25 of Limehouse, Middlesex shows that he has known Henry Beale and Peter Leonarda for two years and Humphrey Rastell for 15 months, but does not know Pierce Griffiths. In answer to interrogatories Hamond says that Beale and Leonarda were reputed to be the owners of a ship called the UNITYE. Secondly he states that Beale and Leonards, chartered the UNITYE to Rastell and Griffiths who put on board merchandise. and passengers to be shipped to Virginia and other plantations. The Master was Tobias White. The ship left the Thames in April last, but as the year was already partly gone the Master was ordered to sail to New England instead of Virginia. In New England they landed some merchandise. Rastell hired a bark and put the passengers and their food on board and sailed to Virginia, ordering the UNITYE to await his return. After 3 months the Master of the UNITYE received orders to sail for Virginia. This was nearly the end of December and the Master knowing that he would meet with contrary winds, and because there were hardly any provisions left decided to return to England. Hamond goes on to say that while the ship was in New England no storms occurred and that another ship, name unknown, which was there at the same time – Master William Gayney – did sail to Virginia and arrived safely.

Mrs Ganey said to this deponent that ye said Anthony did not borrow ye boy of him, neither did he lend him unto him what measure can he make unto my husband, & this deponent saved, I know not, the next day about ten of o ‘clock in ye morning this deponent, it being low water went thither & found ye boy uppon ye mudd where ye water had ebbed away fro’ ye body about five strides, then this deponent went & told Mrs Gany, who intreated this deponent to goe to Mr English his house & and take one of his men to helpe to make a grave & soe to bury him, w’ch this deponent did performe. And further this deponent sayeth yt when hee tooke upp the body it laye uppon ye mudd lyeing over one side & his leggs a little crooked, more- over this deponent sayeth yt were [where] he found ye body hee thinketh yt ye water is about as deep as his middle, but hee thinketh by Mrs Ganye her words unto how yt ye body was removed about ten foote fro ‘ ye place were [where] ye boy was drowned: And further this deponent sayeth yt he could not perceive yt ye said Anthony Asson had walked or gone into ye water to save the boy.
It is the opinion of the main part of the table [court] that Anthony Asson shall pay for his offence in sending a boy nam.ed Thomas Canadye over a creeke at Keconghton uppon Mr Gainy’s land to fetch his Canoe on the other side whereby the said boy was drowned, viz: one hundred weight of tobacco to Mr Wm Gainy who had hyred ye boy for yt yeare & two hundred waight more to Mr Humphrey Rastell whose servant he was; for that it appeareth that he ye said Anthony might w’thout doubt have saved the boy by wading a little into ye water, & for yt he had not asked leave of anyone to have the said boy to fetch his Canoe.

1640 Thomas Games: Thomas Games lived in Virginia on Kent Island in 1640. He was a mariner who was commissioned by Governor Leonard Calvert (brother of Cecil, Lord Baltimore and son of George Calvert, the original Lord Baltimore). I’ve included information from my annotated bibliography which includes the document showing Thomas Games (in some copies of the record it’s Games and in some it’s James, but the oldest one I saw said Gems) put up a bond for Edward Griffin to protect him from being arrested.

1641 March 31 – John Graweere, a black servant who may have later changed his last name to Gowen, is listed in a lawsuit. [The suit of John Graweere reveals that there were greater restrictions on the ownership of personal property by black servants. In addition, Graweere’s successful petition to purchase his child indicates another difference between white and black men. Graweere’s decision to use the court to secure his son’s freedom indicates that he was one of the many blacks in Virginia who knew how to use the colony’s institutions.]
Whereas it appeareth to the court that John Graweere being a negro servant unto William Evans was pmitted by his said master to keep hogs and make the best benefit thereof to himself pvided that the said Evans might have half the increase which was accordingly rendered unto him by the said negro and the other half reserved for his own benefit: And whereas the said negro having a young child of a negro woman belonging to Lieut. Robert Sheppard which he desired should be made a christian and be taught and exercised in the church of England, by reason whereof he the said negro did for his said child purchase its freedom of Lieut. Sheppardwith the good liking and consent of Tho: Gooman’s overseer as by the deposition of the said Sheppard and Evans appeareth, the court hath therefore ordered that the child shall be free from the said Evans or his assigns and to be and remain at the disposing and education of the said Graweere and the child’s godfather who undertaketh to see it brought up in the christian religion as aforesaid.

1650 Stephen Gary – immigrated to Maryland: He was christened Steephen Gerry 2 May 1624 at Talland, Cornwall County, England, the son of John and Elizabeth Gerry (Gary). (Talland parish records, LDS film #0916986)) He and John Withers were first granted 1000 acres of land in Westmoreland County, VA ;on October 6, 1654, the land bounded on the N.E. by land of Capt. Brent and S.W. with a branch of the Petomeck Creek, for the transportation of 20 persons, including a Cleare Browne. (VA Land Patent Book 3, p. 373; also “Cavaliers and Pioneers,” Vol. 1, p. 315).
Cleare Browne could well be Stephen’s future wife, Clare. Patent Book 5 records that on March 18, 1662, Col. Vallentine Peyton was granted 500 acres on the N. side of the branch of the Petomecke Creek and on the N.E. side of the land of Capt. Brent; and 150 acres upon the head of a branch of said Petomecke Cr. and E. upon land of Capt. Brent; 500 acres being the moiety of 1000 acres granted to Withers and Garey.
Clare (Browne??) Gary, wife of Stephen, immigrated in 1653 (Liber Q, Folio 204) Stephen Gary immigrated in 1650, was referred to as “Gent.” with commission to survey 1500 acres on the Eastern Shore (Maryland) (Liber 7, Folio 581).
Stephen Gary and Arthur Wright were appraisers of the estate of Thomas Skinner, Henry Beckwith, bondsman, 10 Feb 1675.
Stephen Gary and William Stevens and others were appointed to keep the peace in Dorchester County in 1669. (History of Dorchester County, MD, p. 31)
On June 14, 1674, Stephen Gary and William Stevens and others were appointed Justices of the county, and on August 9, 1676, Stephen was appointed one of the justices. (Hist. of Dorchester Co., pp. 38, 39)
On October 28, 1678, Stephen Gary was paid 85 pounds of tobacco for serving in the campaign or aiding the troops against the Nanticoke Indians. (HIst. of Dorchester Co., p. 40, 41)
At a Colonial Council in 1681, a petition was presented by James Peterkin against Stephen Gary, Sheriff of Dorchester County, that Gary and others had combined to defraud and deceive him of his just rights and property; that they illegally proceeded in the execution of a warrant; for summoning a jury to lay out the bounds of Capt. Anthony Dawson’s land in Transquaking River, by compelling jurors excepted by Peterkin, and that damage had almost ruined him. An investigation was ordered. (Hist. Of Dorchester Co,, p. 43.)
27 Oct 1675 From will of Stephen Gary- to my grandchild Mary Warner Refuse Neck, 50 acres adjoining my plantation.
Dorchester County is one of the original counties of Maryland, formed before April 13, 1669. Before its formation, the area was already surveyed and home to early settlers such as Anthony LeCompte, William Chaplin, Richard Bentley, Thomas Stone, Thomas Stillington, John Gary and Stephen Gary, Francis Armstrong, Peter Sharpe, John Felton, William Stevens, Thomas Powell, John Hudson, and others. Nearly 500 settlers lived in the area by the time of the county’s formation. The area was also home to Nanticoke and Abacos indians.
“For George M. Radcliffe of Cambridge, Md., farming goes beyond simple dollars and cents. It’s a way of life, seeped in family history. Radcliffe traces his connection to the farm more than 300 years – back to ancestor Stephen Gary, one of Dorchester County’s first “gentlemen justices” who in 1662 made claim to what is now Radcliffe’s land and about 1,250 surrounding acres.”
From the College of Journalism, Capitol News Service on, Friday, February 24, 1995.
Spocott Windmill – In 1663 Stephen Gary of Cornwall, England, secured a patent from Lord Baltimore for approximately 250 acres of land named Spocott on the Little Choptank River. After his death, a descendent, John Anthony LeCompte Radcliffe, built a self-contained community consisting of saw mills, blacksmith shops, shipyards, etc. One project was the erection of a post mill in 1850, at approximately the same site as an earlier windmill. The mill continued to operate until it was blown down in March of 1888. Both the millstones and the original set of interior stairs from the mill were saved as well as certain of the timbers. In 1971 a windmill was reconstructed on Gary’s Creek about 100 feet from the site of the original Spocott Windmill.

1691/2 March 10: lp Bill of Complaint of Thomas Starke In Virginia in August 1690, Jenkins agreed to buy the Experience Ketch from David Garwin, her master and owner. To pay for the ship, Jenkins drew a bill of exchange on Starke, which was to be paid to Joseph Alford, but not until the ship arrived in England since Jenkins was suspicious of Alford. However, Alford persuaded him to pay on the understanding that if the ship were lost, he would repay Starke. Garwin in fact took the ship to the rebels in Ireland, and she was lost on the coast. Alford now refuses to repay Starke since he pretends that there was no evidence that Garwin acted from his own free will.
Answers of Joseph Alford
March 21, 1691/2
He received a letter from Garwin dated franthe James River, enclosing a bill of exchange and a bill of lading. Starke refused to honour the bill until he heard of the safe arrival of the ship. Alford was told of the safe arrival on the Exchange soon afterwards and Starke, therefore, agreed to pay him with the understanding that he would be repaid if it was proved that Garwin was responsible for any loss of the ship. Later Garwin told him that the ship had been forced into the Irish coast by bad weather and lost. The cargo was seized by the rebels and the crew badly treated. Garwin was, therefore, not responsible for the loss and he is not liable to . . . Title Chancery Records. Bills and Answers. Reynardson’s Division. 1691/92. L-Z p. 154.

1692 March 28: Thomas Starke c. Henry Jenkins and Joseph Alford [See C 9/121/7; C 33/278] lp Answers of Henry Jenkins to the Bill of Complaint of Thomas Starke
March 28, 1692. Agrees that he bought the Experience Ketch from David Garwin as is alleged. He paid by a Bill of Exchange drawn on Starke and asked the latter not to pay until he had received delivery of the ship. Does not know what agreement Starke had with Joseph Alford who was acting for Garwin but if Starke paid the money it was not with the defendant’s consent and he therefore refuses to pay the plaintiff. Garwin caused the ship and her cargo to be lost off the Irish Coast and Starke has approached the defendant several times for money since his return from Virginia. Court of Chancery.

He was seized thereof in fee simple and had issue one son Thomas Lear who died in his father’s lifetime leaving issue one son John Lear and two daughters Elizabeth and Martha. The aforesaid Colonel Lear made a Will 21 November 1695 and gave his granddaughter Elizabeth another distinct tract of land, to her and the heirs of her body with remainder to John George and his heirs, with remainder to the testator’s grandson the aforesaid John Lear and the heirs of his body for_ ever. And he gave another parcel of land to Charles Goring in fee and after several legacies he bequeathed to his aforesaid grandson John Lear (who was his heir-at-law) all other his lands tenements and heraditaments, with bases for term of years and appointed Executors, but he did not limit any remainder over of the said patented lands but such reversion descended upon his aforesaid grandson to whom an estate tail had been devised in the same lands. Some time after making his will the said Colonel Lear died seized in fee of the same patented lands and John Lear his aforesaid grandson entered therein. That by indenture of lease for a year of 29 June 1743 he, for consideration of 5/- sold the tract of land described in the said patent to his late grandfather with other premises, to the petitioner for one year for a peppercorn rent for certain reasons.

On 15 October 1740 one William Thrustout filed a declaration in ejectment in Virginia against the petitioner for one messuage, one tenement and 900 acres of land in the parish of Newport county of Isle of Wight, Virginia, as the said William Thrustout was the feigned lessee under Martha Godwin and others The petitioner pleaded not guilty and issue was joined and the action was successively continued by the Court until 15 April 1741, 15 October 1741 and 15 April 1742. The last was considered by the judgment of the Court to be with the plaintiff and therefore, he, the said William Thrustout should recover against the petitioner with 1/- damages and his costs. The plaintiff prayed a writ of possession which was granted. The petitioner was greatly aggrieved by the judgment and brought his appeal to His Majesty in Council and prays that the said judgment given in Virginia 15 April 1742 be reversed. The Lords of the Committee heard the appellant by his Counsel and thereupon agreed that the said judgment be reversed and he be restored possession and that judgment be entered up to the appellant with costs. Privy Council Registers pp. 1-14, Vol.no.10.A.Press 12.
