Biography
This profile is being updated with research published in 2017.[1]
For years it's been assumed that Marmaduke Horseman's parents were named Marmaduke and Frances. And that the father Marmaduke was he by thes ame name travelling on the ship "Martha." However, two things:
- Yorkshire, England parish records include the following family unit the children of which match later West New Jersey Horseman individuals, known to be children of mother Frances:
- George Horsman and Frances Carlile, m 25 Nov 1662
- Marmaduke the son of George Horsman of Whitwell, bp 27 Nov 1663
- Susannah daughter of GEorge Horseman of Whitwell, bp 14 Dec 1665
- Duglessa "filia" [daughter of] George Horseman of Whitwell, bpt 19 Jul 1668[2]
- Examination of the other passengers of the fly-boat "Martha" indicate that it's compmletely likely that the Marmaduke on the ship was the son of Frances, not the spouse of Frances.
Therefore the father of Marmaduke and the husband of Frances was George, not an older Marmaduke.

Denyse, the most recent issue of The American Genealogist has an entire article about Marmaduke; I'm going to add the relevant bits. It includes that this man's name should be George, not Marmaduke. Let me now if you have any questions, but if this is an ancestor of yours, you might want to get your hands on this journal issue.
