The URL is correct. I just checked out the link again to make sure, and it went
through qithout any problems. Geocities must have been having some problems, or
may have been overloaded when you tried. If you have any more problems accessing
my site, please let me know so that I can find out from Geocities what the problem
is.
Sorry about the inconvenience. Take care.

I found a microfilm copy of this article. The citation is:
R. Stewart-Brown, "The Pedigree of the Claytons of Crooke, Fulwood and
Adlington in the County of Lancaster" The Genealogist, n. s., vol. 26,
pp.129-142 (1910)
The introduction to the article says, in part,
"Among the pedigrees in Dugdale's Visitation of Lancashire in 1664, there
is one of the family of Clayton..."
"About 1784, Sir William Betham drew up a pedigree...apparently made
without reference to the Visitation of 1664 ... purports to carry the
descent back to Norman times. I think that such part of Betham's pedigree
as is anterior to the commencement of the Visitation pedigree need be
seriously considered"
I haven't seen the Murphy's report, but unless they provide firm evidence
for the earlier (pre 1500) part of the line, that part of the lineage needs
to be ignored.
Here is a summary of the line that Stewart-Brown does give:
Raphe Clayton of Clayton, co. Lancaster had two sons
John (below)
Thomas b. abt. 1530, d. 1590/1 - most of the article is devoted to his
descendants.
John, the elder son, of Ulneswalton and of the Crooke in Whitle, co.
Lancaster, d. 12 Jan 1585-6. His children:
William
Richard (b. abt 1560, d. 1612)
Raphe (below)
Jane
Ellen
Jennett
Raphe Clayton of Eccleston and Crooke in Whittle, m. Anne
"[?Challoner]" Will probated at Chester, 1604. Children:
John (b. abt 1598, d. 1625)
Richard "mentioned in his father's will"
Ellen
And that is all there is about the line of Raphe->John->Raphe->Richard.
There is nothing more about the lasr Richard. Apparently the Murphys have
been able to establish that John Clayton who died in New Jersey in 1704 was
his son.

As of right now, I don't have anything on your Claytons, but there are several
lines where we don't have very much information yet. So, it's very possible that
there is a tie in somewhere, I just don't know where yet.
I have most of my Clayton data posted on my web site, Moore Hope for the Future,
"http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Meadows/4694/moorhope.html", although I have
enterred a few other Claytons and made a few corrections since I posted my data.
I'm working on a major update, which I hope to post soon. Why don't you check it
out and let me know if you see anything there. I have data posted there about
quite a few early PA families, so there's a decent chance there are some other
links as well.

I have a Margaret (unknown maiden name) Evans who married a John Evans. I think
they are a generation removed from your Margaret Evans, however, since Margaret's
daughter in law's mother, Esther Foulke, was born in 1743/44.
I did a quick scan of an article on the Evans family that is in Historical
Collections Relating to Gwynedd, by Howard M. Jenkins. On p. 161, there is a
Margaret Evans who married Anthony Williams, but left no issue. On p. 159, there
is a Catharine Evans who married Peter Jones, son of Peter, of Merion, at Gwynedd
Meeting House, 3d mo (May) 15, 1740. On p. 156, there is a Margaret Roberts Evans,
widow of Hugh Evans, who married Robert Jones of Merion in 1747.
> Do you have anything further on that family of Jones-Williams?
I have 81 Williams, 34 Evans and 134 Jones posted on my website. A number of them
are also tied in with my Foulke, Clayton and Conard lines. There was an amazing
amount of intermarriage going on between the early Quaker families, so I'm sure
there are a lot of ties.

I hope this helps a little bit.

I gave Tom the info on the Claytons. I am not able to connect my
Clayton's to yours, but I will look into the Evans family and see if I
can find anything for you.
Sue Chiaverini
Tom,
I am looking for a William Clayton who married a Mary Montaugon ? and
lived in Eastern PA, but later than your Claytons. He was the father of
my great grandfather John Wesley Clayton. I have no dates for William.
Data on John Wesley is as follows:
John Wesley Clayton b. 1840, d. 27 DEC, 1920, Glenolden, PA
m. Johanna Roseanna Ruthard 6 OCT 1873, Phila., PA
b. 4 AUG 1854 d. 26 NOV 1920, Glenolden, PA
l
l
Mary Ann b. 27 MAY 1874, Phila. PA
Margaret Jane b. 9 APR 1880, Phila. PA
Anna Elizabeth b. 1882 , Phila.PA
John Wesley fought with the 29th Penna Volunteer Infantry through the
entire Civil War
and survived to raise a family. Unfortunately the 29th volunteers is one
of the few Civil War
outfits that doesn't have a web page.
I am just getting started on this branch of the family. Any idea where
John Wesley and his parents were from? I'd be glad to trade info.
Regards,
Jack
Tom Moore: I'm intrigued with your list of Claytons. MY William Williams was
in the same area at the same time as the one listed as having married Ann
Jones. We show in our "probable" records that he married Margaret Evans circa
1740 at Gwynnedd Meeting, PA. I noted that one of the Jones daughters m. a
Griffith Evans about the same time. The Williams family thinks Margaret Evans
was the "widow Evans"...could possibly have been William Williams 2nd wife
after Ann Jones.
Do you have anything further on that family of Jones-Williams?
My Clayton family connection is via Mary and John Beals who m. in 1682 in
Chester Co, PA. Suzanne Watt Naperville, IL
Looks like there are several of us "cousins" who have found lots of info
that we can't seem to substantiate.
Does anyone have the documentation to back up these finds? I don't mean
to sound critical and appreciate every bit of help and/or clues I get
but when someone says "I believe....." that isn't quite enough. I like
the "believe", too, but would like up something to hang my belief on.
We have seen more than one "ancestry" for our John Clayton but I am
greedy and want more than names and dates - I like something more
solid. However, I don't mind putting suppositions in if noted as such.
Help - does anyone have anything more firm?

Richard,
Thank you very much for your posting on the antecedents of John CLAYTON m.
Alice MYERS. I am also a descendant. Can you tell us more about the Murphy
study "Origins of John Clayton"? I thought I had looked through the FHL
catalog pretty thoroughly - or is this a new addition? Is the study
available anywhere for purchase? Did the Murphy study also use information
from THE GENEALOGIST?

I saw the info. from James Clayton about John of Warwick.
I wish I could believe in that information. I think I know where his
information came from, and I disagree with it.
There was a John Clayton who supposedly had land in Warwick, Bucks
County which was stated in a book by Mildred Williams. She is supposed
to have taken information from Davis' History of Bucks County and
condensed it into the form that makes up her book. I am here to tell
you, there is no John Clayton mentioned in Davis' History of Bucks
County. Just a James. James did have a son John, but he was a minor,
and is accounted for in genealogies of James' family. There is no way
it hooks up with the Claytons of Bucks and Montgomery County, PA..Maybe
in Britain they connect, but not here. I found a reference to a John
of Warwick, but he was a Closson, not a Clayton. It was found the the
two volume set of Colonial Families of Philadelphia.
Another reason I disagree with the John of Warwick theory of Claytons
is there is no deed to land, and why are the supposed children of said
Clayton living in Falls, Southampton, Hatfield, and none in Warwick.
Wouldn't one of the sons, and or daughters stayed in the area to take
care of the family farm? Wouldn't there have been a will or and estate
file somewhere?
If the Clayton family was born here, why is there no record? I am
beginning to think they migrated here from somewhere else in the
colonies.
These are my thoughts and some reason for them. Hopefully somewhere out
there is the correct information, or if the John of Warwick theory is
correct, there is better proof.
Sue Chiaverini
Hi,
No, not for Augustine Clayton. The only Clayton that I have is Jane Clayton.
She married a Mathew Talbot, and they had two children: Isham and Martha.
Now Isham Talbot married an Elizabeth Davis, and they had about a dozen
children, including an Isham Talbot, Jr. I'm not certain, but either Jr. or
Sr. later became a Senator in KY. Isham Talbot, Sr. died in 1832 in KY, don't
know where, but can find out.
Where were your Clayton's in KY? Maybe there is a connection somewhere.
Dan in Oklahoma
Hi Clayton,
I don't have an Isham Clayton, but I do have a Clayton that "supposedly"
married an Isham. They had at least one daughter, Jane, who married a Mathew
Talbot, and they had two children: Isham Talbot, and Martha Talbot.
It might be possible that your Isham Clayton could have been a sibling to my
Jane Clayton, but at this time I have no info. about this.
My Jane Clayton was b. in 1714; and married in Lunenburg Co., VA. Lunenburg
Co., was quite large and eventually Bedford, and Campbell Co.'s came out of
it, just to name a few. Do you have any other sibling names for your Isham?
Dan in Oklahoma
Hi Janelle,
Don't know whether Mathew Talbot was an uncle of Elzabeth Talbot, but here is
what I do know.
Mathew Talbot married Mary Williston and had four boys. (1) Charles; (2)
Mathew; (3) James; and (4) John. Mary died and he remarried to Jane Clayton;
they had two children: (1) Isham Talbot; and (2) Martha Talbot,(my 5th
ggrandmother). I don't have the family information for Mathew, James and
John, but I do know that Charles had no Elizabeth's and that he lived and died
in VA. Mathew, Jr.; John and Martha all moved to GA and died there. I
believe that James also stayed in VA. However, Isham Talbot married an
Elizabeth Davis, moved to KY and died there in 1832. He had over a dozen
children, one of which was named Elizabeth, b. 1793; died 24 Aug 1850 in
Henderson Co., KY.
Obviously, Elizabeth is probably one of the most popular given names for
women, so this should be no surprise, however, you might let me know more
about your Talbot's and maybe there could be a connection for you.

Raymond Martin Bell, in "Some New Jersey Families..." (Washington, PA, 1983)
follows, in part, earlier work by J Wilber Clayton from the 1940's. He has
"John Clayton b. c1631 d 1704 Burlington Co., NJ likely to RI 1671 to
Monmouth Co. 1675, to Burlington Co 1699
m1 10M 11-1661 Alice Myers, m2 bef 1692 Sarah --"
Ten children are listed, b. between 1662 and 1679.
Bell identifies John's "likely" parents as
"Edmund Clayton b c1600 bur 6M 10-1657 Lancashire, England m c 1624
Margaret --- bur 12M 20-1662"
Thomas Clayton Hughes' web pages at Family Treemaker Online add that John
was born in Aldingham Parish, Lancashire and identify his parents as
"Edmond Clayton born 5 Apr 1602 in Gleaston, Lancashire, England died 10
Aug 1657 in England. He was the son of Henry Clayton, born Abt 1575 in
Gleaston, Lancashire, England; died 20 Dec 1662. He married Esther
Townson 27 Apr 1660 in Aldingham Parish, Lancashire, England"
Almost identical inforamtion is contained in a GEDCOM file submitted by
Lloyd Cunningham to Ancestry World Tree.
A different ancestry has been posted by Earl Crandall at his web site,
http://pages.prodigy.com/NY/cranfanassoc/ne.html
He has:
"John Cleayton, B. 1631, Swarthmore, Lancaster. d. Burlington Co., NJ
1704.
He m 1st 1658/59 UNKNOWN (1 child); m2, 11 Dec 1661 Alice Miers in
Swathmore (who d. 1666/67 in Swarthmore) They had 3 children; he m3 1669,
Portsmouth, RI, Alice Cooke (5 children).
John's parents were Richard Cleayton and Anne Askew of Swarthmore. Richard
was the son of Robert or Raphe Cleayton (d. 1604, Swarthmore)."
>From none of the above web site compilations do I have any good ideas who
originally compiled this data.
I have come across references to two articles that have appeared the
Quaker Yeoman. that may shed some light on this family. The articles are
"John Clayton family of Monmouth..." Vol 19, No. 3 (Oct., 1992) and
"Clayton family 1666-1872..." Vol 16 no 3 (Oct, 1989). However I have not
been able to obtain copies.

It sounds like your information was taken from Raymond Martin Bell's "A
Study of The Claytons of Monmouth County, New Jersey." A more recent
study by Mary J. and Matthew Hilt Murphy, "Origins of John Clayton of
Shrewsbury and Burlington, New Jersey, 1603-1704," indicates that Bell
may have been mistaken. The Murphy's believe the family line is as
follows:
Robert de Clayton (Accompanied William the Conquerer to England)
William de Clayton (d 1141)
Robert de Clayton
William de Clayton (d 1152, married Elizabeth Farrington)
Robert de Clayton (m 1151)
John de Clayton (d 1209)
Thomas de Clayton
John de Clayton (m 1263, d 1280)
Ralph I
John (d 1399)
John (d 1404)
Thomas (d 1426, m Dorothy
Thelwell) John (b 1419, m Mary
Mainwaring, m 1445 Jane Clifton) Thomas (b 1442)
Robert (Raphe)de Clayton (bc 1475, d 1510, mc 1496
Jane Farrington)
John II (b 1499, d 1585, m Mary)
Rafe (Ralf) (bc 1560, mc 1590 Ann Challoner
Richard (b 1601, mc 1622)
John (b 1630, d 1704, m1 ??, m2 1661
Alice Myers/Meires, m3 1669 Alice
Cooke?, m4 Sarah)
The ancestors from Richard on back are based on an article in a British
journal, THE GENEALOGIST, New Series, Vol 26, London, George Ball &
Sons, 1900, pp 129-142. I came across both the Murphy's study and a
copy of THE GENEALOGIST during a visit this past summer to the Family
History Library in Salt Lake City.
Hope this helps.

I have an Augustine Clayton, b ca1755, Spartansburgh, SC or about there....he
had brothers, sisters, and he m. Katie Smith in 1781...they removed to KY ca
1810...this Isham has come up with me before, but haven't
connected...Augustine was a Baptist preacher in Ky and well-known for his
music....he was a revol. soldier also. They resided in Chester Co. SC
also...do you have info on him? mcsk69(a)aol.com
It has been a while since I posted this information, so I thought it was
about time I did again and see if any of you have run across this family in
your Clayton research.
I found autographs of the following individuals in my grandmother's
autograph book all dated in the year 1899: Alice Clayton, H. Belle Clayton,
Minnie Clayton. Also there were autographs of Mrs. Steve Reedy (maiden name
Emma Clayton) and Mrs. R.B. Snapp of Santa Clara, Ca. (maiden name Lucy
Clayton). These people all signed the book indicating that they were cousins
of my grandmother, Gertrude Bennett Cleveland, who lived in San Francisco. I
would assume the cousins were all sisters as they all appear to have been
born San Jose, California. Their parents would have been Randolph Clayton
and Sarah Cleveland. I would appreciate any information on any of the above
individuals and their descendants or ancestors.
Thanks,
Maggie Hall
