Biography

Anne Mauleverer was born 26 April 1678 at West Ayton, Yorkshire, the only child of Edmund Mauleverer and Anne Pearson.[1][2] Anne's father died 27 November 1679;[1] Anne probably would not have become a gateway ancestor were it not for the fact that her father died when she was only one year old.[3]

Her mother, left with a one-year old child, remarried Mathew Watson,[3] a chemist, of Scarborough, Yorkshire. They married 7 September 1681 at Pickering Yorkshire Monthly Meeting.[1][2]

Anne, with her mother and step-father, migrated from Scarborough about 1682[1] and settled in Chesterfield, West Jersey. They were members of the Society of Friends at that location, as was Anne's future husband.[4] Matthew Watson appears to have been of some wealth, as he purchased in 1683 a one-twelfth share in the Province of West Jersey.[4]

Anna married on 26 May 1696 John Abbott, yeoman, of Nottingham Township, Burlington County, New Jersey. They were married in a Quaker ceremony in Chesterfield, New Jersey, at the home of Mathew Watson.[1][2][3]

John was born circa 1660, in Famsfield, Nottinghamshire, England.[citation needed] He came to America aboard the ship Bristol Marchant, commanded by William Smith, arriving in Philadelphia in August 1684. He settled in Nottingham Township, New Jersey, and was founder of Abbott's Landing on Crosswicks Creek.[5]

Anne and John had ten children, including:

  • Mary,[1] born 14 November 1696, died 9 February 1739, wife of Benjamin Ellis and George Williams[5]
  • Anne,[1] born 14 September 1698, died 10 August 1767, wife of Jonathan Biles[5]
  • Jane, wife of Joseph Burr,[1] born 9 March 1701, died 3 January 1780[5]
  • Rachel (1st of name), born 1 January 1704, died in infancy[5]
  • Rachel (2nd of name), born 12 June 1706, died unmarried 6 October 1777[5]
  • John,[1] born 22 September 1708, died unmarried 2 November 1795[5]
  • Elizabeth, born 5 November 1711, wife of George Williams, Jr.[5]
  • Timothy,[1] born 9 February 1717, died 30 November 1776, married Anne Satterthwaite[5]
  • Sarah, born 12 January 1719, died 2 May 1746, wife of Hezekiah Williams[5]
  • Samuel,[1] born 22 August 1721, married Elizabeth Hastings[5]

Annes served as an Elder of the Chesterfield, New Jersey Monthly Meeting.[1]

Anne died on 19 February 1754 and was buried with her husband at Crosswicks, Burlington County, New Jersey.[1] Both Richardson and Davis state that Anne's husband, John Abbott, died 16 October 1719.[1][4] This is likely incorrect as Richardson goes on to say that John was a surveyor of Highways in 1721.[1] Additionally, John and Anne had a son, Samuel, born in 1721.[5] The correct date for his death is 1739.[citation needed]

Research Notes

Anne Mauleverer has been said in one 1918 book to be a descendant of Sir Richard Mauleverer, "Knight Templar of the Norman Conquest."[5] The Knights Templar were not founded until 1119, and there are doubts about when the first members of the Mauleverer family to establish themselves in England came to England.[6] Anne is also listed as a descendant of William the Conqueror in Royal Ancestry, IV:62-65.
