Stephanie, do you really have documentation on the Lord Burliegh lineage??
Many have said it, but I haven't seen the documentation. I am a descendant
of Benjamin Sollers (Mr. Stephens called him Benjamin Solomon), so I'm very,
very interested in documenting this line.

Hello "J" [ wish we had a whole name]
Your GGGranddad[?] B.A. Cecil-Stephens began with Samuel Cecil as the
first generation.Did he never have any info as to Sam's parents or other
lineage---
such as these below? ....
Please note.There may also be inaccuracies in this report, especially as
pertains to the TWO generations between William Lord Burleigh's first son
,Thomas Cecil, Earl Exeter, and William Sessell-Cecil,[1665-1749], a man
of considerable mystery ,BUT fairly well documented as the father of John
"Sessell" Cecil, father of your Samuel [#1.]

Notes... **William Cecil, Lord Burghley married a second time and his
son from that marriage became the first Earl Salisbury, serving as prime
Minister to Queen Eliz I, as his father had done before him.
The Earldom later was elevated[ abt 1790] to Marquess Of Salisbury and the
4th Marquess, James, was Prime Minister under Queen Victoria at the turn
of the last Century. The Cecils including the present Marquess , still
live in part of historic Hatfield House in Hertsfordshire, England. Part
of the Grand old house is open to the public for tours.
Like Elinor Schaifer [ Hi Elinor! ]my husband Richard descends from
Zachariah[5] and Nancy Ingram.---in his case through their son Samuel [38]
and Sarah Brown and their son James Harvey [130] and Julia Ingram, who
are Richard's great grandparents. Their son Samuel Shelby Cecil and his
wife Mary Cross Cecil were parents of my father-in-law ,Arthur Reagan
Cecil ,[b. Oct 1886- Mt. Pleasant TN and
d. Jan 1969 in Florida.] I have a good amount of "downline" info if you
would like it.
