Research FOUND

1. from A. Hayes was posted on the WikiTree profile of George Truitt. "Looking at Coldham 1679-1700, I don't see a reference to THIS George. There are two Georges with land records, but one has 1684 and 1687 dates. I would assume son George. The other, "George, Jr., of Virginia" 1699 record -- maybe Henry's son, George? But both too late to be this man George Truitt born 1617..

Task List

1. ^{[citation needed]} to prove WHERE Progenitor: g-g-g-g grandfather George Truitt Trewett was born and his Parents

✔"Dr. Groves Research"

Dr. Groves research info starts at 1617-^[1]

"George Truitt probably was born during 1617 in perhaps Wales or Cornwall or Kent, England [Shannonhouse; Houston] (George's birthdate is inferred from [Houston] who mentions a deposition of George Truitt, age 46, in November 1663."

Note: Dr. Groves does not make mention to whom Grampa George's parents were.

A) Kent, England, farthest south/at the English Channel. (is a county in South East England) (thought to be born Kent)

B) Wales, from Kent, 223 miles also across England on the bay from Ireland, and near the St. George Channel (is a country that is part of the United Kingdom)

C) Cornwall, from Kent, 285 miles across England on the Celtic Sea. (is a county in South West England)

D) Northumberland , England near the North Sea, from Kent, 332 miles north of KENT...(is a county in North East England, northernmost county of England, it borders Cumbria to the west, County Durham and Tyne and Wear to the south and the Scottish Borders to the north.)

1. Research, FIND SOURCES, compare and
2. FIX any profiles that have incorrect data. (((please send messages to the Managers before or leave a NOTE on the right side of the Profiles, IF the change is DRASTIC))) Thank you
3. ADD the One Name Study|name=Truitt
   

   This profile is part of the Truitt Name Study.
   STICKER to all the TRUITT profiles. Which gives us more exposure for getting the answers.

The "Where he was born" question? is from one side of England to the other and as far north as you can get........

Immigration

From: "In 1640 George Truitt immigrated to Accomack County, Virginia, from England. He was sponsored Christopher Kirke, who may also have been the captain of the ship on which he sailed."

1. Adding census records, probates, Wills, f-a-g IF there is a photo of headstone.....

Moved over from PROFILE

"This refers to Henry Truitt " The Will that names his son George Truitt and George's mother, Elizabeth Robinson THIS whole paragraph has been moved to the FREE SPACE

This is how I read this, ok, "1676 is the date of death that WE are giving Henry Truitt the SON of George Truitt according to the statement he had 1 son George and his wife was Elizabeth.... However, we have 2 other sons LINKED a Henry/a John, John being born AFTER the father's death...

ANSWER: I agree with Mary THIS is regarding the SON not a FATHER so let us move this to the FREE SPACE and Henry Truitt profile....

1676 Muddy Creek "Henry Truitt, POSSIBLE father of George"

"My only son George" --- "his mother Elizabeth"

I don't see where it says "brother"

This is a transcript in a book from the Wills/Admin. so maybe someone needs to pull up the original and make sure of this "QUOTE"

I see a Henry Truit of Muddy Creek as possible father of George Truit in the Wills of Accomack.-^[2] Quote: "TRUIT, HENRY of Muddy Creek – 5 Sept.1676 and 19 Dec. 1676 – My only son George Truit sole heir to land & tenements, he to remain with his mother, Elizabeth, entil he is 21, should he die then to my unborn child. Wife Elizabeth Exec. Witt: Baptis Nucom, Robert Barton, William Luis – p. 18)" ..from Foster-86 03:16, 11 August 2018 (UTC).

"This profile needs serious cleanup. 8/16/19

All those references about removing and adding Frances Peddenton, etc. are just confusing and clutter up the profile biography.

I thought the old argument of who Frances was had been resolved long ago?

She was Frances Peddenton when she was ill and at her father's house talking about "father what should I do" to Mr. Peddenton.

How could she be otherwise? Thanks, Mary

"This refers to George's Parents"

1- Just for NOW I will LINK the parents until WE, Cuz's can prove them or disprove them with a SOURCE...

From f-a-g member and Cuz'

"Looking for information on George Truitt's

father [[Truitt-[977 | George Truitt]] 1600-1663) and

mother removed to FREE SPACE UNKNOWN

•2- Here is another family TREE that has the same copy-rootsweb.com ID: P22608

Name: George Truitt (Truett) (Trewett)

Birth: 1600 in England

Death: 1663 in Accomack, Virginia, United States

THIS too was about Francis Peddington, which too many Researchers say NO!

Clarification: "George Truitt paid for Alice's passage from England after his 1st wife Francis Graves died abt 1645-49. Alice lived in George's home after arrival in 1654. They were married shortly thereafter." George was brought before the courts on a charge of fornication.

This is assumed to mean that he and Alice were living together but not married in the Quaker faith at the time.

SOURCE: "U.S & Canada, Passenger & Immigration Lists Index. 1500-1900" Alice Watson Arrival year: 1654 Place: Virginia Annotation: Includes 25,000 names from records of the Virginia State Land Off. :Excerpts of the Irish names from the GREER LIST were published in # 6258, :O'Brien, Early Immigrants to Virginia..." ^{[citation needed]}

-Note: first marriage is in England. No Children shown. (Where is the source for a marriage in England?)

All children from marriage to Frances Peddenton Graves and Alice Watson.

This below has been done: Left for reference only.

••:WARNING: The father was born in Accomack, Virginia, yet the son George born in Kent, England? THERE IS NO FATHER NOW>>>>>>>>

ANSWER: probably need to unlink the 2.

The 2 sons, George linked to George Truitt UNLINKED # George b:1671 his mother is Eleanor MEREDITH --#George b:1650

••:Warning: Check the data. A child's birth date (Truitt-313 born 1617) should not be before a parent is six years old (mother Graves-37 born 1619)

••First thing I think we should do is remove Graves-37 as George's mother as Frances is also linked as his wife,

ANSWER: Removed the link for Frances as his motherTaylor-25258 09:51, 12 December 2017 (EST)

And that fixed the WARNINGS••

I, Taylor-25258 09:38, 11 October 2017 (EDT) adopted this file and now trying to get it untangled and MERGED-- MERGE COMPLETED

"Groves provides a good analysis about why he believes Frances Peddenton was Frances Graves and the wife of this George Truitt. A+ ..This is certainly an argument against including Truitt-500 and Peddington-2 as parents. The facts as presented by Groves do not easily support a 2nd George Truitt and a 2nd Frances. Also, is there any record of a 2nd George Truitt? ~

Right now, Frances is presented as both mother and wife, but only the latter is supported by any evidence. I think we should remove Truitt-500 and Peddington-2 as parents until any evidence suggest otherwise.
