Sources vary on the birth year for Richard Duckett. Duckett himself, in 1727, stated he was aged 55, which would place his birth in 1672. ^[1] Sharon Doliante ^[2] gives a birth year of 1673 in London. Edyth Whitley ^[3] reports his birth two years later in 1675, also in London.

1708 County Clerk; Buys Tyler's Discovery / Duckett's Disappointment

Prince George's County Land Records, Folio 222: Indenture, 8 Jul 1708^[4] From: Robert Tyler of Prince George's County, Gent. To: Richard Duckett, County Clerk of Anne Arundel County For 408 a 100 acre plantation called Duckett's Hope, part of a tract called Tyler's Discovery in Prince George's County between land called Enfield Chase owned by John Llewellin and Cattail Meadows belonging to Robert Anderson; bounded by Ample Grange owned by John Boyd and Matthew Mackabey's land Signed: Robert Tyler Witnessed: John Gerrard and Thomas Clegett Memorandum: 8 Jul 1708 Susannah Tyler, wife of Robert examined by above witnesses Alienation: Richard Duckett paid the sum of 4s for the 100 acres (Ed: Amptill Grange on the Hienton map of Prince George's Co. was written as Ample Grange in this document and Enfield Chase as Enfield Chance )

In 1708 Richard Duckett purchased one hundred acres of Robert Tyler in Prince Georges Co., for the sum of 40 pounds. The land was a part of Tyler's Discovery lying between the tracts called Enfield-Chase and Cat-tail's Meadow. Present day highways 50, 301 and 197 roughly outline the piece, about 12 miles east of Washington, D.C. Much of it is now developed into a housing area called Collingwood Manor. It could more truly have been named "Duckett's Disapointment", for in 1727 Richard and Charity, unable to pay to the Episcopal pastor of Holy Trinity Church, Jacob Henderson, a long-standing debt of one hundred and eleven pounds sterling, forfeited the entire estate "as also all singular and personal estate..of what nature, kind or quality whatsoever...cows, calves, sheep, bedding, pewter...or other goods or chattels." Harry Wright Newman, "Mareen Duvall of Middle Plantation," published by the author, Washington, 1952, found in the Prince Georges Co., Historical Society library says on page 48: "One March 4, 1726/7, Richard Duckett and Charity his wife redeemed a mortgage (from Rev. Henderson) on Duckett's Hope." He was married to Charity Jacob on Jan. 5 or 26, 1698/99 in Anne Arundel Co., Maryland.^[5]

"According to [ Whitley ], this couple had 11 children. Some of them are given Quaker dates, but not the first two, which seems to indicate that they became convinced around 1700 or shortly after." - Quoted from the page for Richard Duckett on Pitard.net.

Six of his children appear in the All Hallows vestry records, and an eight year old child, Mary Temple, was bound over to him to serve until she was sixteen. ^[5]

Research Notes

What is the Origin of the Duckett Surname?

The surname Duckett is said to have the meaning of "Little Duke" as reported by author Edythe R Whitley. The Duckett family is an ancient family in England. They seem to have first come into land with the marriage of John Duckett ot Margery, daughter and heir of St William Windsore, Knight, during the reign of King Richard II (1377-1399). The marriage brought the manor Grayrrigg into the Duckett family.

The Duckett family demands respect, not because they descend from royalty. They are to be remembered and honored because of the tremendous part they played in the founding of America. They have always been a highly esteemed family. One can find many of their descendants buried at Arlington National Cemetery.

Was he the son of William Duckett and Elizabeth Henshaw?

Numerous popular genealogies show Richard Duckett to be the son of William Duckett, Esq of Wiltshire, England, and his wife Elizabeth Henshaw. If these were his parents, ancestry could be traced for another half millenium back to Richard Duckett, b. abt 1224 in Grayrigg, Kent, England. A plaque in Kensington Church, London carries this inscription which proves that William and Elizabeth Duckett of Henshaw had only one son named Lionel and did not have a a son named Richard.

1727 Deposition, Complete Text

Mr Richard T. Foose of Kissimee, Florida, wrote an article in the 1988 winter edition of the Maryland Genealogical Society Bulletin. The article entitled Alice Skinner and Elizabeth Read; Two Ridgely wives Identified was based on documents identified in the history of The Tiverton Baptist Church in Devonshire, England. Among the documents were papers which brought action in chancery to obtain recognition of title to Henry Ridgely as an heir and grandson of Col. Henry Ridgely and his wife Alice Skinner, the latter who was deeded property on which the Tiverton Baptist Church rests. To prove title, Henry petitioned the court to appoint five selected commissioners to take depositions from five named citizens. Among the five deponents was Richard Duckett of Prince George's County, Maryland, who made his deposition in 1727. Following is a verbatim transcript of Richard's deposition from a photographic copy of the original.

Richard Duckett of Prince George's County in the Provence of Maryland age 55 years or there abouts Desposeth on the Holy Evangelists of Almighty God that about the year 1692 he came to Maryland a Servant for 4 years Consigned to Maj'r Henry Ridgely a mercht near the head of South River and about two days after his coming home his Mistress the wife of his said master Henry Ridgely ask'd him what Countryman he was, he told her he was born in London. She said that was farr from her for she was born in the West of England he told her he had been in most parts of the West and asked her where. She told him the place but he hath forgott the name tho he can call to mind he said he had been there upon which she asked him if he knew any of the Skinners There for her maiden name was Skinner, he told her no for his stay was short, she added I have something of an estate there & tho I am not much the better for it at present yet my son Charles Ridgely (who was then a lad about Twelve Years of age and the only child his Master had by the said Alice his wife) or his children may. The Depont. doth further Rem'r there used to come to his masters house one captain Rock - whose Ship lay in Seven River & came in Yearly who this Dpont. hath often heard converse with his Mistris about her Relations and Friends in the West of England by which he supposed he was of the same place or near it. And about two years after being in the country he said his Mistris the mother of the said Charles Ridgely Died and his Master in her Trunk found some letters which he brought to me to read and he did so & found they came from her Relations and Friends in the West of England but he can neither remember the names of those they came from nor the place but then told his Master they ought to be kept save, for they might do his son Charles good for they did intimate some right his Mother had there, And when his said Master sent his said son Charles to England which was some years after, ordered him to take care of those Letters and alsoe writt to Mr. Isaac Millner his Correspondent in London to be assisting to him if he was minded to go to the West about the said Estate. But after the said Charles had stayed some time in England he married there and Returned & brought his wife into Maryland with him, and lived on his plantation, And this Deponent doth further say that soon after the said Charles settled in Maryland he the Deponent particularly Enquired what progress he the said Charles had made in the West and what Information he could give about the affair of the Estate he told the Deponent that it was so farr off he would not go but had sent severall letters But had received no answer and that he had enough without so much trouble & charge and that Mr. Millner would do what he could in it, After some Children the said Charles had by his wife (which were girls) he had a son Named Henry & is the same that is now present whom this Deponent hath known from his Birth and was always called and known by the name of Henry Ridgely son of the said Charles by his wife Alice whose Maiden Sir name was Skinner, This Deponent living with or near the said Maj'r Henry Ridgely who bore the title of Col some time before and untill his death and was intimate with all the family and further saith not. ^[9]
