These dates make her 22 and William 35 at the time of their marriage , and
that would make her 45 and him 58 in 1741 when their last child was b orn.
She was the daughter of Lt. Thomas Courtney of St. Mary's County an d his
second wife, Mary, possibly the widow Strong. Lt. Thomas Courtney wa s b.

a redemptioner through the patronage of Captain Robert Vaughn. He obtained
the rights of a freeholder the next year when he appeared at court an dex-
pressed his intentions to marry Mary Lawne, a former maid-servant o f Mis-
tress Margaret Brent who arrived in 1683 with four maid-servants. Inasmuch
as James Courtney and his prospective bride both entered Maryland i n1638,
it was possible that they came over in the same ship and that the rom ance
was culminated during the voyage. On May 29, 1639 in expressing hi sinten-
tions to marry, he stated that there was no precontract to any othe rwoman
and that there was no impediment of consanguinity or apprenticeship . He
gave his bond for 5000 pounds of tobacco. He frequently gave his pro xy
to Captain Robert Vaughn during the days of the early Assemblies. N o re-
cord has been found of the settlement of his estate, but his widow was
alive in 1664."
