See THOMAS JENKINS OF MARYLAND 1670 by Edward Felix Jenkins, O.S.A . page47 in re Edward Jenkins, RIN 69: "Born in Charles County (Maryland )about 1765, he (Edward Jenkins) emigrated to Kentucky where on July 16,1798, he married in Bardstown, Kentucky, by Father Badin, Ann (Nancy)Gardiner , who was baptised in Charles County, August 2, 1776. Ann wasthe daughter of Clement (1748-1820) and Henrietta (Boone) (1750-1830)Gardiner. Clement was the son of Ignatius Gardiner and his wife, AnnBoarman. (Citing The Maryland Semmes and Kindred Families, by HarryWright Newman, published by the Maryland Historical Society, 1956.)" Butsee Descendants of Wyllyam Gardynyr by Thomas Richard Gardiner, below.He believes that the wife of Ignatius Gardiner was Anne Edelen.

AN ENIGMA??

While I am inclined to place more faith in the accuracy of Harry WrightNewman than in Thomas Richard Gardiner, there is a serious problem inconcluding that Ann Boarman was the mother of the children of IgnatiusGardiner. The father of Ann Boarman was Benedict Leonard Boarman who wasborn in 1711. The eldest child of Ignatius Gardner was Luke Gardinerborn in 1732 with the remaining children born closely thereafter.Benedict Boarman would have been 21 years of age at the birth of hisfirst grandchild. Where is the error? The age of Benedict is fairlysolid; his father Benedict Sr. was born in 1687, indicating his age at 24when Benedict Jr. was born. We have no age for Ann Boarman. ThomasRichard Gardiner believes that Anne Edelen was the wife of IgnatiusGardiner. She was born in 1710, they were married in 1730, and she was22 when Luke was born, all very logical.

However, we are faced with the information contained in Harry WrightNewman's book stating not only that Ignatius married Ann Borman but that"Ann Gardiner" was referred to several times in the last will of AnnBorman's father Benedict Leonard Boarman and her mother Elizabeth. (Seeabove) We have no age nor marrige date for Ann Boarman. Her fatherhaving been born in 1711, she could have reasonably been born between1730 and 1750. Is it possible that Anne Edelen was Leonard's first wifeand died after the birth of her last child Ignatius Francis Gardiner in1752 and that Ignatius married Ann Boarman thereafter? One source putsAnne Edelen Gardiner's death at 1778, the year after Ignatius's death.I can reach no logical conclusion. This situation calls for a good dealof research to reconcile these questions.

Sparks Opinion: Some of the above is disputed by The Maryland Sem mes
article. There is no dispute that Ann Boarman was the daughter of WilliamBoarman and his second wife Mary Mathews, nor that Ann Brooke married Benedict
Leonard Boarman, nor that he was the son of Major William Boarman an dhis third
wife Mary Jarboe. (He was a half-brother of Ann Boarman.) The disput e is
whether Anne Brooke was the daughter of Leonard Brooke, a son of Lor dBrooke,
or the daughter of Baker Brooke Jr., a son of Lord Brooke. Gardine rclaims it
was Leonard and The Maryland Semmes claims it was Baker Brooke Jr. (p g194) I
tend to side with The Maryland Semmes because of earlier errors in Gardiner.

Benedict Leonard Boarman, son of Major William Boarman and MaryJarboe, his wife, was born about 1687 in Charles County, deposing to be58 years of age in 1745. Statements have been made that he married Anne,daughter of Baker and Katherine (Marsham) Brooke and the granddaughter ofColonel Baker Brooke and Anne Calvert, his wife, but no documentation hadbeen cited except perhaps that Richard Marsham, father to Katherine(Marsham) Brooke, in 1713, named a granddaughter Mary Boarman. A child ofBenedict Leonard Boarman would actually be a great- granddaughter.
In 1698 Baker Brooke devised (to) his daughter, Ann, the tracts"Brooke Forest," "Summersett," and "Westfield" at which time it was evident that she was unmarried. About 1705, according to the rent roll ,the latter two tracts were possessed by John Miles.
As Benedict Boarman was born in 1687, he probably did not marry until1710 or thereabouts. In 1724 Benedict Boarman and John Parnham approvedthe inventory of the estate of Joseph Pile, 2d, as next of kin. JosephPile, 2d, left only minor children and named John Parnham as "brother" inhis will. John Parnham had married Elizabeth Pile, a sister of JosephPile, 2d. Furthermore, two sons of Benedict Boarman in 1758 approved theinventory of Joseph Pile, 3d, as kinsmen . There was definitely somerelationship between Benedict Boarman and the Pile family.

Daughters Mary, Eliner, and Jane were to have 100 acres of land ifthey remained unmarried.
One-third of personal estate to wife, and certain Negroes to four sons.
On March 17, 1763, the three sons -- Leonard, Richard, and Georg e --agreed to the division of the land, being portions of several tractswhich their father, Benedict Leonard Boarman, left them by wil l andtestament. The divisions were recorded at court on February 23 , 1769.
Jane Boarman died a spinster, and by her will dated September 20 ,1779, and proved on October 12, 1795.

17-- - 1782
Richard Basil Boarman, son of Benedict Leonard and Ann Boarman, wa sborn at the parental plantation near where the village of Bryantow n nowstands. He married Ann Gardiner, the daughter of Clement and EleanorGardiner, whose sister Mary had married his brother George. ClementGardiner died intestate in St. Mary's County during 1746, but his widow,Eleanor, dying in 1760, willed 7 slaves each to her daughters Ann Boarmanand Mary Boarman, and appointed Richard Boarman the executor.
Children of Richard and Ann (Gardiner) Boarman
1. Catherine Boarman, born 1760, died 1812, buried at St. Joseph's , St.Mary's Co., married Major William Thomas, Jr., and became the mother ofGovernor James Thomas, of Maryland.
2. Teresa Boarman.
3. Ann Boarman, died unmarried before 1789.

It was Richard Boarman who had inherited some of the issue of th echildren born to his grandfather's black slave Charles who had marr iedNel Butler, an Irish woman. She had been brought to Maryland b yCharles, later Lord Bal- timore, who was living at the home of Majo rBoarman. Apparently, Major Boarman had been assigned the indenture shipof the Irish servant, for she was referred to as a serving woma n inMajor Boarman's household.
In 1764 at the Provincal Court two slaves who called themselves William Butler and Mary Butler sued Richard Boarman, of St. Mary's Coun ty,alleging that he had detained them in perpetual slavery and tha t theywere free born. A number of interesting depositions were made.
Edward Edelen, aged 50, deposed on May 27, 1767, that he had hear dhis father, Richard Edelen, say a few years before he died, which w asseven years the next fall, that he was 89 years old and that he ha dheard his father say that the latter went to Major Boarman one morn ingand when he arrived, Lord Baltimore was there "and then lived the re,"and he heard Lord Baltimore ask for Eleanor Butler, a servant wo man.When the servant came, Lord Baltimore said, "I understand you a re goingto be married today to negro Charles. What a pity so likel y a young girlas you are should fling herself away, so as to marr y a Negro. You willmake slaves of your children." To which the Iri sh wench replied, "I'drather marry Charles than your Lordship." Oth er remarks by the wenchwere quoted which were not very complimentar y to Charles Calvert.Richard Edelen, Sr., did not remain for the we dding, which EdwardEdelen, the deponent, understood occurred that da y. He furthermorestated that his sister, who had married one of th e Boarmans, possessedsome of the descendants of Nell Butler.
John Jordan Smith on September 12, 1787, then age 85, swore that h ewas acquainted with Ellener Butteler, an Irish woman, and negro Cha rles,and that they lived together for several years and had three ch ildren --John, Sarah, and Catherine. That they all lived on the pla ntation ofMajor Boarman and that the woman used to come to his fathe r's housetowash for the family.
Jane Howard, aged about 70, deposed that when she was a girl, sh efre- quented the home of Major Boarman whose wife was her godmothe r andknew two mulatto slaves, Jack about 20 years of age, and a "wel l grownyoung husky wench named Kate." She always understood that th ey were thechildren of a slave Charles and an Irish woman Nell.
The court decided in favor of the complainants. While issue sire d bya free man of a slave woman were declared to be slave, those sir ed by aslave of a free woman were not decreed to be in bondage. Wil liam andMary Butler were not only declared free, but the court order ed RichardBoarman to pay damages.
Richard Borman's will, dated April 12, 1777, was not probated in S t.Mary's County until August 8, 1782.
To wife Ann £50 over and above what she is entitled to and one ma re.
To daughters Catherine and Teresa Boarman, personalty.
To daughter Ann Boarman one horse at the age of 12 years.
To sisters eleanor Boarman and Jane Boarman during life, tract o fland then in their possession, being part of "Boarman's Rest " and attheir death to my nephew Benedict Boarman son of my brothe r GeorgeBoarman, deceased.
To nephew Benedict Boarman of George, "The Enlargement Amended" . Inevet that his daughters died without issue then their land to revert totheir aunt, Mary Boarman's daughters -- Elizabeth, Elener and MaryBoarman.
To St. Joseph's Chapel £20.
The final distribution of the legacies was made on December 22, 17 89,at which time it was shown that the daughter, Ann, had died, and also thehorse which had been willed to his daughter Teresa. The legatees werethe widow, and the daughters Teresa Boarman and Catherine who was thewife of William Thomas.
The widow died within a few years thereafter, for her estate wassettled on February 22, 1792, in St. Mary's County by her son-in-law andadministrator, William Thomas, when the balance was divided equa llybetween the two heirs -- Catherine, the wife of William Thomas, andTeresa Boarman.

"William Boarman, the founder of the Maryland family of that name ,arrived in the Province as a youth of not more than 15 years of age . Hiscoming timed with the Civil Wars in England, when Royalists, Ca tholicsand Anglicans were the subject of prosecution by the militan t Puritans.His adventure to Maryland at 15, for he deposed to be ag ed 20 on May 28,1650, and financing his own passage stir the imagina tion and create adesire to know the reason of his leaving the parent al roof at so youngan age. He was a scion of old Catholic house, fo r at a Puritan court in1655 it was recorded that "William Boreman co nfesseth in court that he'sa Roman Catholick and that he was borne a nd bred so."
He was in the Province as early as 1645, for in that year, he wa s onboard a pinnace at St. Inigoe's Creek when certain clothing belo nging toCuthbert Fenwick who lived at the Crosse House was stolen.
From the Lord Proprietary he received a number of land patents, th etotal acreage amounting to more than 17,000. His most conspicuou s grantwas a lordship on "Boarman's Manor," of 3,333 acres, with al l theprerogatives of a baronial court in accordance with the ancien t feudallaws of England. The village of Bryantown in Charles Count y nowembraces part of his manorial domain. Another large grant wa s"Brother's Gift" of 3,000 acres lying in St. Mary's County.
William Boarman was intimately associated with the Calvert family .And it is within the realm of possibility that he or his first wife ,Sarah, in some manner was related to the Lord Proprietary. His 3,0 00acre tract in St. Mary's County was given the signigicant name o f"Brother's Gift" granted in 1674 during the reign of Cecilius, an d onlythe Lord Paramount had the power to give or even grant land.
Upon Charles Calvert's, later 3d Baron, initial coming to Marylan d in1661, he was a guest in the manor house of William Boarman unti l hefound suitable quarters. At that time his half-uncle Philip Cal vert,was in Maryland residence. In Calvert's retinue was an Irish s ervantwench, Nell Butler, who became attracted to one of Major Boarm an's blackAfrican slaves and insisted upon marrying him much agains t theentreaties of Calvert and Boarman who finally gave their consen t. About100 years later, her issue who had remained slaves in the Bo arman familysued for their freedom which resulted in an interestin g court case andlegal decision.
Prior to the rebellion, of 1689 William Boarman was one of the outstanding men in the Province -- an officer of the provincial militia , amagistrate of the local courts, High Sheriff for Charles county f rom1679 to 1681, and a delegate to the Lower House of the Assembly f rom1671 to 1675.

Heacquired a thorough knowledge of the Indian tongue an d was usually theofficial interpreter during political conclaves an d other intercourse.
He fought on the side of law and order at the disastrous battle o fthe Severn in 1654, when the Proprietary forces were defeated by th eusurping Puritans, with the result that the leaders were captured ,condemned and several shot in cold blood by the insurgents. Someho w hislife was spared, but the Puritan court which sat in judgment fi ned him1,000 lbs. tobacco.
When Lord Baltimore regained his Province after despotic rule of about eight years by the local Cromwellians, William Boarman receive d duerecog- nition and on October 12, 1661, was commissioned a capta in of theprovincial militia. In the same year "four men out of Capt ain WilliamBoreman's com- pany" were called for Indian service. O n February 8,1667/8, the Council ordered Captain William Boreman t o raise 20 men outof his company for an expedition against the India ns. By 1676, he hadbeen promoted to major, for as Major William Boa rman, he was ordered topurchase provisions for the army. In the s ame year he was summoned toSt. Mary's City for a council of war whic h apparently resulted in thedeclaration of war against the Nanticok e Indians on the Eastern Shorefor their atrocities. In 1678 he rece ived 2,000 lbs. tobacco for hisparticipation in that punitive expedi tion. At the timeof the radicaluprising of 1689 he held the rank o f major and thereafter was alwaysaddressed as Major William Boarman.
Being disenfranchised he retired to his seat on Boarman's Manor an dlate in life he sustained deafness, for on May 8, 1700, he was refe rredto as a "deafe old man," but was commissioned by the Countil t o directthe laying out of the lands belonging to the Piscataway Indi ans.
He transported his first wife, Sarah, into the province, but her family name and with whom she came has not been proved. It was not un tilMay 11, 1658, however, that he claimed land rights for her, stati ng thathe had transported a number of servants and free men and wome n toMaryland, for whom various land rights were accorded him in conf ormitywith the decrees of Lord Baltimore to compensate those who fin anced thepassage of prospective inhabitants. And it was not until A pril 1, 1662,that he claimed his 100 acres for his own personal emig ration -- some 22years after the event. His first wife, Sarah, wa s accordingly themother of the older children. He failed to name al l his children in hiswill of 1709, consequently there is the possibi lity of other issue,expecially daughters whose names have not come d own to posterity. Therewas a daughter Eleanor, for in 1695 Madam El izabeth Young bequeathedproperty to "her goddaughter Ellinor Borema n daughter of Major WilliamBoreman." On November 10, 1668, his wif e Sarah waived dower when heconveyed land on Nanjemoy Creek, but o n April 12, 1669, when he sold 150acres of "The Hunting Quarter," n o wife came.
The estimated death date for his first wife can therefore be place dbetween those two events, and the marriage span of his first unio n asabout 17 years.
Children of William and Sarah Boarman
1. William Boarman, married twice.
2. Sarah Boarman married Thomas Mathews, Jr., and later Thomas Mudd.
3. George Boarman, probably died without issue.
4. Mary Boarman, the Elder, married Robert Green.
By 1674, William Boarman had married Mary, the daughter of Dr. Tho masMathews, of Charles County, who held baronial prerogatives on St .Thomas' Manor. Dying in 1676, Dr. Mathews devised his daughter "Ma ry,wife of Captain Boarman" a portion of a 700 acre plantation on th eMattawoman and "Hill Freehold" of 225 acres in St. Mary's County . Shewas living as late as July 1, 1681, when Boarman and "Mary hi s wife noeof the daughters of Thomas Mathews, late of Charles County , Gent.deceased" conveyed to the Hon. Philip Calvert, Esq., and Jane , his wife,for 15,000 lbs. tobacco Town Land commonly called "St. Ma ry's Freehold"on a branch of St. Inigoe's Creek which had been wille d by Dr. ThomasMathews to his son Thomas Mathews, since deceased, an d to his daughterMary Boarman.
Children of William and Mary (Mathews) Boarman
1. Anne Boarman married Leonard Brooke.
(It is reasonable to assume that there were other children born t oMary Mathews and that perhaps one or more of the daughters whom hi swidow, Mary Jarboe, named in her will of 1739 may have been actuall ystep-daughters. Major Boarman was still married to Mary Mathews i n1681, and by depositions we have the approximate births of his thre eyounger sons, all definitely the issue of the last wife, but if Fra ncesIgnatius was born in 1701, Major Boarman was fully 71 years of a ge.)
Before 1687, being again a widower, he married thirdly Mary Jarboe ,daughter of Colonel John Jarboe, a French Catholic from Dijon, Burg undy,who had settled in Maryland and was allied with the conservativ eProprietary Party. She was a maiden at the time her father made hi swill on March 4, 1664/5, for in the insturment he bequeathed his daughter, Mary Jarboe, personalty and mentioned land which had been giv enher by Marke Cordea. In 1687 Major Boarman claimed this land an dprevented a sale of the estate of Mark Cordea by rights of Cordea' s giftto his (William's) wife, when she was Mary Jarboe, thus provin g hismarriage to the Jarboe heiress. Childr en ofWilliam and Mary (Jarboe) Boarman
1. Benedict Leornard Boarman, born 1687, married Anne ---.
2. John Baptist Boarman, born 1689, married Elizabeth Edelen.
(For the history of the Edelen family, see Newman's Charles Count yGentry.)
3. Francis Ignatius Boarman, born 1701, married Anne Slye.
4. Mary Boarman married (1) John Gardiner and (2) Gerard Slye.
5. Clare Boarman married (1) Richard Brooke and (2) Richard Shirbin.
6. Elizabeth Boarman married --- Hammersley.
In the course of a lawsuit between Thomas Mudd and John Sanders, William Williams in 1693 deposed that he had been a retainer of Majo rWilliam Boarman and recalled that Major Boarman offered 400 acres o f"Boarman's Rest" as a dowry for his daughter, Sarah, if an engageme ntwere announced between her and Joseph Pile. The latter did not materialize, so the 400 acres of land were offered to Thomas Mathews, s onand heir of Dr. Thomas Mathews, of Portobacco. Williams at the ti mequestioned Major Boarman, for he understood that the land had bee npromised to Georges son, George, but Major Boarman replied that h e hadother lands for his son. William Williams sailed for England a nd didnot return to Maryland for six or seven years, at which time T homasMathews had married Sarah Boarman. He visited them at "Boarman 's Rest"where they were living and he spent the night. It was the s ameplantation on wihc Thomas Mudd was then living with his wife Sara h. By aland conveyance in 1713, it was shown that on July 16, 167 9, WilliamBoarman made a deed of gift of 450 acres of "Boarman's Man or" to Mary,the wife of robert Green, which they called "Greene's Re st." MajorWilliam Boarman drew up his will on May 16, 1708, but i t was notprobated in Charles County until January 17, 1708/9, afte r the additionof a Codicil on June 17, 1708. Witnesses were Josep h Pile, John Mudd,who is identified as a grandson, and John Wathen . (It is summarized asfollows:)
To his wife Mary whom he appointed executrix he bequeathed persona ltyand devised the dwelling-plantation "Boarman's Rest," but sh e was to payhis daughter Clare certain money due by debt from Ephria m Leverton ofNorth Carolina.
To his son Benedict he devised the dwelling-plantation "Boarman' sRest" provided he kept it in repair especially the Catholic Chape l onthe place; if he failed to do so, the dwelling was to pass to th e nextheir.
To his son John Baptist he devised the plantation "Lanterman" an d therents due from Edward Benson who held it under lease.
To his daughters Mary and Clare he bequeathed personalty and 400 acres where the Negro quarters were, being part of the manor.
To his daughter Ann Brooke he devised 500 acres of land which wa s tobe taken up by his widow and executrix.
In the event of the death of his sons John Baptist and Francis Ignatius during minority or without issue, the survivor was to inherit t hedeceased's portion, and both dying without issue or during minorit y,their estates were to revert to son Benedict, and the latter dyin g aminor without issue, his lands were to pass to the other two son saforesaid.
Overseers -- son Benedict Boarman, Benjamin Hall, and Raphael Neal e.By April 7, 1711, the widow and executrix had married John Sander s andwith him an account was filed at court; thereby legacies were p aid toBenedict Boarman, John Baptist Boarman, Francis Ignatius Boarm an, ClareBoarman, and to the following poor persons -- Robert Gree n (JS: hisdaughter Mary Boarman's [by Sarah Sinley] husband) and Dou zabellSemmes. To Leonard Brooke and his wife Anne, L25 were paid . His widow,Mary Sanders, died testate in Charles County and by he r will dated March12, 1739 and probated on December 17, following, s he bequeathed herpersonal estate to her sons -- Benedict, John Bapti st, and FrancisBoarman; also to her daughters May Sly, Elizabeth Ham ozley, and ClareShirbin. Bequests were made to the priest who woul d officiate at herlast rites and to the poor of the parish.
At a session of the Provincial Court in 1767, Thomas Bowling, age d63, stated that "He knew Leonard Brooke who he always understood ma rriedMajor Boarman's daughter and [he knew] Richard Brooke and his w ife Clearwhich Clear was the daughter of Major Boarman."

!NOTES: THE THREE MARYS (JS:) These notes concern difficulties wit hvarious sources of information concering the Boarmans, Slyes and Gardiners. Maj. William Boarman had two daughters and one granddaughte rnamed Mary Boarman. First was Mary, daughter of William and Sara hSinley Boarman. She presents no problem and is assumed to have mar riedRobert Green. Second was Mary (which I refer to as old Mary) th edaughter of William and Mary Jarboe. Third was Mary, the daughte r ofWilliam and Sarah Sinley Boarman's son, William Jr. and Mary Pil e (whomI call young Mary). The problems occur in attempting to dete rmine thespouses of Mary Boarman. Note the following references:
1. Newman in SEMMES, cited above, states on page 187 that old Mar ymarried (1) John Gardiner (RIN 2724), (2) Gerard Slye (2839). Fo rreasons stated below, it is this information which I have conclude d iscorrect.
2. Thomas Richard Gardiner, Vol II, pg 2, states that young Mar ymarried John Gardiner. I have concluded that this is incorrect.
3. Thomas Richard Gardiner, Vol. I, pg 36, of his GARDINER, GENERATIONS AND RELATIONS, states that young Mary married Luke Gardiner i n1723. I have also concluded that this is correct. Note that thi sassertion is inconsis- tant with that in paragraph 2 above made b y thesame gentleman.
4. Father Jenkins in THOMAS JENKINS OF MARYLAND, pg 74, states th atyoung Mary was the widow of Luke Gardiner and married Robert Gerar d Slye(RIN 2840), father of Gerard Slye (RIN 2839). I have conclude d thatboth of these assertions are incorrect.
5. Thomas Richard Gardiner, pg 29, states that old Mary married J ohnGardiner in 1710. I conclude that this is correct. Birth date s (anddeath dates where available) are as follows:
Old Mary, b1691; young Mary b1700. Robert Gerard Slye b1640 d170 3.His son Gerard b1679 d1733. Luke Gardiner b1695 d1754. John Gardinerb1678 d1717. Marriage dates known: Luke and some Mary 1723; John and someMary 1710.
The primary reason that I do not believe that young Mary and GerardSlye were married is that several sources marry her to Luke Gardiner. Shewas five years younger than Luke and would have been 23 whe n theymarried. She could not have been "Luke's widow" (as per Jenki ns) if shehad first married Gerard Slye since Gerard died some 21 ye ars prior toLuke. And she could not have been married to Gerard's fa ther, RobertGerard Slye, (also as per Jenkins), since Robert died i n 1717 when youngMary was 17 years of age. So I have concluded tha t young Mary wasmarried exclusively to Luke Gardiner insofar as th e Slye family isconcerned.
If any Mary was married to John Gardiner as asserted by Newman, i tmust have been old Mary as Newman states. In 1710, John was 32 an d oldMary was 19. (Young Mary was 10 years old at that time.) Th e questionarises whether, as Newman also asserts, old Mary later mar ried GerardSlye. John died in 1717 at which time Gerard Slye was 38 , not too oldto marry. It is possible that Gerard had been married e arlier but wehave no such information. Further research is necessar y to clarify theseattachments.

See THE MARYLAND SEMMES AND KINDRED FAMILIES, op.cit. p 192:WILLIAM BOARMAN, GENT. (1654-1720)

William Boarman, son and heir of Major William Boarman and Sarah, hiswife, was born about 1654 at his father's plantation in St. Mary's
County. His father failed to mention him in his will, but as the son andheir according to the feudal law he acquired his father's lordship
of 3,333 acres with all manorial prerogatives. He discovered, however,some surplus land or faulty boundaries, so before his death he petitioned
the Lord Proprietary for a correction and the permission to add surplusland to his manor. The resurvey, however, was not made until after his
death.

His first wife was Jane, daughter of Captain James Neale and Ann Gillhis wife, whose father held lordship on Wollaston Manor. Captain James
Neale dying in 1683 made his daughter one of the residuary heirs anbequeathed personalty to his granddaughter, Jane Boarman, but her father,
William Boarman, was to retain possession until her marriage or coming ofage. (the article continues).

***************************

See GARDINER GENERATIONS AND RELATIONS by Thomas Richard Gardiner, VolII, Descendants of William Boarman, p. 2 for the following:

".... William Boarman (of William), born 1652 in St. Mary's City, St.Mary's County, Maryland; died 1720, in Boarman's Manor, Bryantown,
Maryland. He married (1) 1675, in Wollaston Manor, Issue, Maryland, JaneNeale; and married (2) 1700, in St. Mary's County, Maryland, Mary Pile,daughter of Joseph Pile and Mary Turner. His father, Maj. WilliamBoarman, in his will dated 16 May, 1708, probated on 17 June, 1709, didnot mention his oldest son, William, even though his son, William wasalive at the time of his father's death. This was obviously due to thefact that Maj. William Boarman had moved from Boarman Manor to his newhome, Boarman's Rest, leaving Boarman Manor to his son William. Williamand Jane Neale Boarman, daughter of Captain James Neale and Ann Gill, hadthe following children:

William, Jane (died young), Henrietta, Ann, and Sarah.

By his second wife Mary Pile, daughter of Captain Joseph Pile of St.Mary's County, William Boarman had the following children:
Joseph Boarman who died single in 1730, Jane, Thomas James, and lastlyMary Boarman who married John Gardiner.

It now appears that (js: the father of) this William Boarman, known asMajor, had other wives whom former genealogists listed as wives of theProgenitor, Capt. William Boarman and which I also listed with Capt .William Boarman, until a will of Capt. William Boarman was discoveredshowing a date of probate to be 1684. These other wives are Mary Mathewsand Mary Jarboe."

(JS: I think the good Mr. Gardiner is again in error. He states abovethat "His father, Maj. William Boarman in his will dated 16 May, 1708,probated on 17 June, 1709..." How could it be probated in 1684? TheMajor was married three times: first to Sarah Sinley, then to MaryMathews and to Mary Jarboe.)

From my brief study of the Bevon family....
"John and Elizabeth had six known children: John, Charles, Mary ,Ann, Martha, Henrietta." (placed as the one who married Clement Gardiner and went to Kentucky. There seems to be quite a long period i nthere, unless she was a child of very old age. Other opinions plea se!)

See THE BOONE FAMILY, Spraker, Genealogical Publishing Co, 1922,1993, forthe following story about Jemima Boone's capture by the Indians,pp119-121:

"JEMIMA BOONE (Daniel,l; Squire,2; George,3), born 4 Oct., 1762, inNorth Carolina; died 1829 in Montgomery Co. MO.
Married about 1782, Flanders Callaway (b. 9 Dec. 1758, in Va.; d. 19 Aug.1824), son of James Callaway. (a) (See the Sketch of Callaway Family.)
"Flanders Callaway was reared in either Culpepper or Bedford Co., Va.,and was the eldest of three sons, his younger brothers being James andMicajah. He ran away from home and went with some other young men at anearly date to Kentucky, locating at Boonesborough.
"The dramatic capture by Indians of Jemima Boone and the two Callawaygirls, is a matter of history. A number of accounts of this event havebeen left by their contemporaries, all of which are interesting. We aregiving here the statement of Jemima's cousin Daniel Bryan, son of Williamand Mary (Boone) Bryan. He says.--

"Jemima Callaway was so fond of playing in the water, (till perhaps 14years of age), that her common name was Duck. have had a chat with allthe girls since their captivity, but more especially with my cousin, MimaCallaway. On July 14th, 1776, (it was on Sunday, the girls had gone downto the river, and for diversion had gotten into the canoe. After sometime they discovered that they had gotten nearly out of sight of the fort.
They now endeavored to turn their canoe and go back to the fort. Thisonly took them farther into the stream, and till they had gotten withinfifteen yards of the other side when (they discovered) an Indianappeared, came down and swam in and brought their canoe to. They couldonly scream, for to jump out was to drown, and their cries produced analarm at the fort. When the men came down, they could not get over. Oneat length swam over, and brought back the canoe, which the Indian hadtaken to the other side.
It was so late, it is my impression they didn't pursue on far thatnight, but returned to supply themselves with provisions, and came backas soon as they could see to follow the trace next morning. The Indiansled the girl immediately up the bank and straight off without any delaywhatever. The trail was exceedingly obscure. If they trod down a leafor broke off a limb it was noticed and the Indians turned it the otherway, so as to conceal the appearance. They were also threatened forsuch, when discovered. The pursuit and flight, on either hand, was onlyinterrupted by night. The girls were taken along for some distance, andtheir dresses were shortened and the slips (strips?) bandaged aroundtheir legs to enable them to walk with more speed. The pursuers couldnot keep the trail and travel fast. They for a time just struck out tothe right, as if they would go before, and then returning, found a trailthey could follow at quick speed. The third day the Indians passed arolling ground that commanded the trail for some I50 or 200 yards, placeda sentry there and proceeded down on the other side about 70 yards,intending to secure the tomahawking of the girls and their own escapeshould they be surprised. The sentinel, however, became impatient, beinghungry, and it is supposed about the time he thought the venison to beboiled down to have gone down to the fire. Just then the party came inview, and ascending the rising ground, as Boone had ordered, charged onthe party of Indians, a part of them shooting and some reserving theirfire. Boone hallowed to the girls to fall to the ground, but they,heedlessly, rushed
to the whites. The guns were mostly taken. Boone shot one man whodropped his gun. None were fired (of their guns). The Indians were notPursued, and the party returned immediately." (b)

"Flanders Callaway, who married Jemima Boone, and Samuel Henderson,who married one of the Callaway girls, were members of the rescue partywhich overtook the Indians and brought the girls back home. The placewhere the rescue was effected was near what is now Flat Rock, Ky., on theplace now (1921) owned and occupied by Carrol Hamilton, a Boonedescendant.
"It was thought by their daughter, Mrs. Frances Lamme, that FlandersCallaway and Jemima Boone were married by Flanders' uncle, Col. RichardCallaway. (c) (See Sketch of the Callaway Family.)
"At the siege of Boonesborough, "Mrs. Jemima Callaway said she ranmany bullets and would take them in her apron too hot to handle, anddistribute them. She also aided in putting out the fired roofs, and saidthat women would dress in men's clothes and parade around to make anincreased show of numbers." (d) Flanders Callaway was one of the treatycommissioners at the siege of Boonsborough, and in running to the forthad the little finger of his left hand shot off. (d)
"Taking his family Callaway removed to Missouri with Daniel Boone, andsettled in what is now Warren Co. With his sixteen year old son,Flanders, Jr., he joined Daniel in driving the stock over the land routefrom Louisville to St. Louis, while the women and children of the partywent by boat down the Ohio and up the Mississippi Rivers. (e) Aftersettling in Missouri Callaway made a practice of going out every fall orearly winter to hunt and trap, generally taking with him a negro namedMose who was a good trapper, and sometimes also his son John or sonJames. On these occasions the Indians would sometimes rob him of skinsand horses. Perceiving that the Indians had a great reverence andrespect for August Chouteau, a French trapper, Callaway formed the habitof marking his skins with the initials of his own name, "F. C." When anIndian party would appear and demand the skins, he would promptly displaythe markings and say "Chouteau," thus conveying the idea that the skinsbelonged to Chouteau. The Indians would receive this very soberly and goaway without the skins, as they knew if they took them the marks mightbetray them to Chouteau, whom they did not care to rob. After that theytook only Callaway's horses, but some of these were recovered. Thesehunting trips occurred before the War of 1812. Callaway went backseveral times to Kentucky, not only to dispose of his furs and pelts, butalso to procure household supplies. (f & g)
"At an early date, probably before 1808, he and his wife, Jemima(Boone) Callaway, rode all the way on horseback to Kentucky, to visitfriends and relatives. (h)
It was at their home in Charette, Mo., that Daniel Boone made his homefor a while in his old age. After a long illness Flanders Callaway
man who died at his home in Missouri, and was followed in death a fewyears later
were not by his wife. It is said that Flanders Callaway was a "tall,spare, thin visaged, swarthy man." (h)
