Biography

1610 Birth and Parents

James Mullikins was born in Scotland about 1610 [1]

James Mullikin I, Planter, was born in Scotland [2]

Elizabeth Hopkins Baker has his birth later, between 1630-1640. [3]

1657 Immigration and Marriage to Mary

James Mullikin migrated from Scotland to Maryland prior to 1657. [4]

There is general consensus that James Mullikin arrived in Maryland before 1658 and married Mary Dammarell, widow of John, soon thereafter, but there are conflicting records regarding his arrival. See Research Notes.

He was in Calvert Co., MD by Oct 1657 as he was involved in Court case against Henry Coursey. [3]

Patrick and James Gunnel Mullikin patented land called "Mullikin's Green" in 1658. [3] However, Thomas Williams obtained land in Maryland in 1664 for transporting John Crossley, John River, William Thompson and James Mullikin. [3]


Thomas Williams in 1664 applied for land at the Annapolis Land Office for transporting James Mullikin. [4] This application suggests that Mullican served the standard seven year indenture to pay for his passage across the Atlantic.

He resided in Calvert County, MD on the Patuxent River, and at the "Levels Plantation." [4]

Thomas Williams in 1664 applied for land at the Annapolis Land Office for transporting James Mullikin. [4]

Before 8 October 1658 in Calvert County, Maryland, James Mullican married Mary Dammarell, widow of John Demmarell or Demall. [5]
