Mary Anne was the eighth child of Edward and Christian Gregory. She married Henry Smeed, a local baker, on 6 July 1856 at Faversham. The witnesses for their marriage were an interesting choice: Eliza Bridger and Frederick George Streeter who married each other in June of 1858. Frederick George Streeter was Mary Anne's full second cousin through her great-grandparents, Thomas Nutt and Mary Herman. It is unknown if this choice of witnesses was made because of a close relationship with her Streeter cousins or if Mary Anne or Henry were close friends of either Eliza Bridger or Frederick George Streeter. Thomas Nutt, Mary Anne's great-grandfather, did live long enough to actually see his great-daughter born. He died in the January following her christening in July of 1838. Mary Anne's grandfather, John Milsted, was still alive at the time of her birth. But, unfortunately, she never knew either her grandmother Milsted (nee Nutt) or her great-grandmother Nutt (nee Herman).
Immediately after their marriage, Mary Anne and Henry lived at the Quay but moved to West Street by the time their second child was christened in 1862. Altogether, Mary Anne and Henry had at least nine children. There is the possibility that there was one other son as in 1861 a Henry Smeed aged 1 was visiting with Emma Duncan and Christian Gregory. The family was still at 28 West Street in 1881.
On July 29th 1888 Emily Susannah married James Usher, a cooper and took up residence at 28 Fielding Street. Unfortunately, Emily was not to have a long and happy life with James as he died during October of 1890, just 3 months after his second wedding anniversary. Even sadder is the fact that Emily Susannah had been left to face life with one very young child and another on the way without the support of a loving husband. Her last child, also a daughter, was born during April of 1891, about 7 months after the death of James.
By the time of the 1891 census both Emily Susannah Usher and her father, Henry Smeed, were widowed. Emily along with her two daughters, Harriet, born 1889 and Clara, born March 1891, were living with her father and her two youngest siblings at 7 St. John's Road. Percy, then 15, was working as an errand boy at port. Also living with the Smeed family was a boarder named Charles Willett, 25, an ironmonger by trade. | GREGORY, Mary Anne (I2246)

Mary Christiana's husband, Jesse Last, was a builder by trade. This family was fairly well-to-do at one time and lived in quite a large home. Jesse Last was a great violinist and apparently the children drew their musical talent from him. Jesse also taught George Thomas' father to play the violin. By the 1930s, through correspondence between Roy Lumb's mother and the Lasts, it was reported that the family fortunes were "going downhill".
Of the children, Ethyl was a music teacher. She married three times, all soldiers and had a child by each husband. The fourth time Ethyl married she had two children. Her last husband committed suicide.
Christina, later known as "Chrissie", was a girlhood friend of her cousin Winifred (Roy Lumb's mother). She was still living in 1972 and was marked as being 73 years old on February 14.
Winifred died when she was just 14 and nothing is known of Sydney. Jesse was very musical and George was the youngest child.
Jesse and family moved first to Westgate, Thanet and owned a brickfield there. Sometime later, the family moved to "Mhow", All Saints Road, Margate, Kent. | GREGORY, Mary Christianna (I2336)

Mary died 5 months and 4 days following the suicide of Elizabeth Sibert inside their home on 19 May 1788. I wonder if that event affected Mary so deeply that her own health failed.

Mary secondly married Joseph Gallagher (born 22 May 1936 in Londonderry, Ireland and died 6 February 1998 in Niagara Falls, Ontario at Greater Niagara General Hospital of squamous cell carcinoma of the lungs). Apparently, the marriage took place in what was then Bulowayo, Rhodesia, South Africa (now Zimbabwe) shortly after Mary's arrival there in 1971. Mary and her two daughters left Africa hastily only a few short weeks before the civil war broke out. Joe had apparently become a guerilla fighter and disappeared into the African jungle after their marriage irretrievably broke down and Mary and her daughters, with no means of monetary support, had no choice but to return to Canada. There was much mystery and intrigue that followed their departure from Africa and shrouded the fate of Joe for many years.
Fate or destiny, however, had not yet finished the saga of Mary and Joe. Approximately 22 years after Mary's return to Canada a chance meeting at a rehabilitation halfway house in St. Catharines with the counsellor of one of Mary's then friends just happened to put Joe back into Mary's life for that counsellor was none other than Joseph Gallagher. Since that meeting, until the time of his death on 6 February, 1998 at Niagara Falls hospital, Joe and Mary resumed their life together almost as if the intervening 22 years had not happened. They did not remarry although I know that that was one of Mary's fondest wishes. Observing the second half of their relationship one could not help but wonder at the extraordinary supernormal forces that had brought these two people back together and ponder the purpose therefor.
To all intents and purposes, Joe had been declared dead by the Rhodesian government. Mary received documentation to this effect in order that she could Jim Ryan. Although much of the family had long doubted her fanastic claims, once Joe reappeared on the scene he was very forthright and entirely honest and unrehearsed in talking about his disappearance and subsequent life fighting in the jungle for the South African freedom cause. Joseph Gallagher was born 22 May 1936 at Londonderry, Ireland. He had three sisters that I am aware of: Mamie Conroy in Niagara Falls, the sister who lived in Las Vegas and a sister who was still living in Ireland during 1998. Joe was buried from St. Alfred's Church, Carlton-Vine Street, St. Catharines. Darte & Sons Funeral Homes on King Street, St. Catharines, handled the arrangements. Interment was at Victoria Lawn Cemetery in the 'family' plot with Robert McAloney.
3rd marriage of Mary Winifred was to Mr. James Douglas Ryan, on 8 June 1974 at 5:00 p.m. at Westminster United Church, St. Catharines with the reception to be held at 6:30 p.m. at the Holiday Inn, Lake Street, St. Catharines. Particulars of this event are taken from an original wedding invitation in possession of Susan Young. Jim Ryan passed away on 12 March 2006. The following is a complete abstract of his obituary:
RYAN, James - After a courageous battle with cancer at the NHS-General Site, St. Catharines on Sunday March 12, 2006 in his 60th year. Loving son of Verna Ryan of St. Catharines, dear brother of Patricia Sanders of North Vancouver B.C. Predeceased by his father Gerald Ryan. At the request of the family there will be no visitation or service. Cremation has taken place. BUTLER (905)684-2334

Master of the Rolls
Sir Dudley Digges, Statesman, was the eldest son of Thomas Digges. He was born in 1583, Wood thinks "in the parish of Derham, in which Digges Court is situated." He was educated at University College, and subsequently entered at one of the Inns of Court. After much experience gained by travel, he entered the service of his county in Parliament, where his conduct was distinguished by sound judgment and inflexible independence. In 1618, being knighted, he was sent on an Embassy to Russia, and two years afterwards to Holland. In 1631 he obtained a reversionary grant of the Mastership of the Rolls, to which office he succeeded in 1636. He died three years later, 1639. He published a "Defence of Trade," a "Discourse of the Rights and Privileges of the Subject," and many speeches and letters.

Matthew was the last child born to John Milsted and Mary (nee Nutt). He was christened at Luddenham and very little is known of his life. Matthew was a seaman, largely unemployed. He did marry and had three known children, two daughters and one son. All of his children were born in different parts of Kent, indicating that Matthew was on the move regularly looking for work. The first child was born at St. Mary Dover during 1845, followed by the second at Ashford during 1848. The last child to be born was the only son and his namesake: Matthew, Jr.. Sadly Matthew, Jr. was born at the workhouse and died there at 17 days of age. A hurried baptism was performed for Matthew, Jr. at the Faversham parish church on 24 March 1855. | MILSTED, Matthew (I2609)

Maud FitzJohn, Countess of Warwick (c. 1238 – 16/18 April 1301) was an English noblewoman and the eldest daughter of John FitzGeoffrey, Lord of Shere. Her second husband was William de Beauchamp, 9th Earl of Warwick, a celebrated soldier. Through her daughter, Isabella, Maud was the maternal grandmother of Hugh the younger Despenser, the unpopular favourite of King Edward II of England, who was executed in 1326.

Maud was born in Shere, Surrey, England in about 1238, the eldest daughter of John FitzGeoffrey, Lord of Shere, Justiciar of Ireland, and Isabel Bigod, a descendant of Strongbow and Aoife of Leinster. Maud had two brothers, Richard FitzJohn of Shere and John FitzJohn of Shere, and three younger sisters, Aveline FitzJohn, Joan FitzJohn, and Isabel FitzJohn. She also had a half-brother, Walter de Lacy, and two half-sisters, Margery de Lacy, and Maud de Lacy, Baroness Geneville, from her mother's first marriage to Gilbert de Lacy of Ewyas Lacy. The chronicle of Tintern Abbey in Monmouthshire names Matilda uxor Guidono comitis Warwici as the eldest daughter of Johanni Fitz-Geffrey and Isabella Bygod.[1] Her paternal grandparents were Geoffrey Fitzpeter, 1st Earl of Essex and Aveline de Clare, and her maternal grandparents were Hugh Bigod, 3rd Earl of Norfolk and Maud Marshal.

Biography
Mayney’s family lived at Biddenden in the Kentish Weald from the fourteenth century, although Mayney himself was born at nearby Staplehurst. His father purchased Linton Place, four miles south of Maidstone, and resided there in the latter part of his life.14 Though heavily indebted in the 1590s, Mayney’s father left at his death in 1611 nearly 2,000 acres in Kent, a substantial proportion of which was assigned to Mayney’s mother for her jointure. However there is no evidence that Mayney, who succeeded to these estates, was ever significantly short of money.15
In 1607 Mayney married the lady-in-waiting to Lucy Paulet, the wife of John Paulet, 4th marquess of Winchester. Until the death of the marchioness in 1614, the couple mostly lived with the Paulets in Hampshire, either at Basing, the marquess’ principal seat, or more often at Hackwood House, a nearby park lodge. Indeed, it was at Basing that in 1609 Mayney was knighted. However, the Mayneys also maintained a house in Egham in Surrey. During this period, Mayney had the ‘ordering and disposing’ of the Paulet estates and became the godfather to the Paulets’ youngest son. Nevertheless Mayney was not an employee, for in 1614 the marchioness declared in her will that Mayney had received no recompense for his services, despite the fact that these had been ‘not without charge to himself’.16 As well as serving the Paulet family, Mayney acted as trustee for John, 1st Lord Petre, Theophilus Howard, Lord Walden*, his wife’s kinsman Sir Lewis Watson*, Sir William Sandys* and ‘divers others who I cannot call to mind’.17
In 1622 a correspondent of the Reverend Joseph Mead described Mayney as ‘a great Papist’.18 There was certainly recusancy in Mayney’s family, and his father-in-law and numerous friends, including the marquess of Winchester, were at least suspected of Catholicism. Moreover, Mayney himself bequeathed rings to his ‘cousin’ Francis Plowden, the son of the prominent recusant Edmund Plowden†, and Thomas White, who may have been Plowden’s nephew of the same name, a Catholic priest later famous under his alias Blacklo. Nevertheless, four unquestioned elections to Parliament suggest that, outwardly at least, Mayney conformed to the Church of England.19
Mayney first entered Parliament in 1610, when he was returned at a by-election for the Gloucestershire borough of Cirencester. Although he owned property in Gloucestershire and was related to Arnold Oldisworth*,20 he owed his seat to Henry, 1st Lord Danvers, who owned Cirencester manor and was the cousin of the marchioness of Winchester.21 Sir Richard Paulet*, the marquess of Winchester’s kinsman, noted that he was sworn on 9 Feb., the first day of the fourth session.22 His only committee appointment was to consider a bill to naturalize a Scottish gentlewoman of the queen’s bedchamber (26 February).23 He is not known to have played any part in the poorly recorded fifth session.
After the dissolution, Mayney continued to be closely connected to the Paulets, acting as a trustee for the settlement of property upon the marriage of Winchester’s heir, Lord St. John to a daughter of Viscount Montagu in early 1614.24 At about the same time Sir John Holles* reported that a quarrel between the groom and one of the Arundells of Wardour, which apparently ‘sprang from jealousy’ concerning the bride, ‘was revived by an ill office from Sir Anthony Mayney’.25 The Paulets secured his return for St. Ives to the Addled Parliament, but he chose to represent Cirencester, where he was re-elected. Once again he secured only a single committee nomination, this time to consider the Lake decree bill (18 May).26
In September 1614 Mayney, along with Danvers and three other peers, was chosen as an executor by the marchioness of Winchester, who also entrusted his wife with the care of her jewels and papers. For their pains, Mayney and his wife were accused five years later by the marquess of carrying off vast stores of Paulet goods and documents to their house in Egham.27 Despite this allegation, Mayney remained close to the younger members of the Paulet family, including Lord John Paulet*, and was probably responsible for the nomination of his friend and kinsman Sir William Parkhurst* for the Paulet seat at St. Ives in 1625.28
Henceforward, Mayney principally attached himself to his ‘ever dearest’ friend Sir Richard Weston*, whose long attendance at Court was about to bear fruit. Weston, who like Mayney had been a trustee for Lord St. John’s marriage settlement,29 appointed Mayney trustee for his lands, while Mayney also stood surety for his debts. Together they leased a house in St. Mary Spital.30 During Weston’s embassy to the archdukes in 1620, Mayney acted as Weston’s agent in England.31 In the following year he accompanied Weston on a second mission to Brussels, and on 25 June he reported on its lack of success to Lord Cranfield (Sir Lionel Cranfield*). He was rewarded with a grant of Crown land in December 1622.32 Returned for Weston’s former constituency of Midhurst in 1624 on the interest of Lord Montagu, Mayney played no recorded part in the last Jacobean Parliament, although in May he petitioned the Lords against his kinsman (Sir) Lawrence Tanfield*, whom he accused of swindling him under colour of legal advice.33 Early in 1625 he joined with Weston, now chancellor of the Exchequer, in an effort to secure Cranfield’s restoration to favour.34 He had probably already moved back to Surrey where, as a Richmond resident, he contributed £20 to the 1625-6 Privy Seal loan.35
Mayney drew up his will on 26 Aug. 1625. Declaring himself to be ‘in perfect health’, he asked to be buried ‘in the chapel belonging to my house in the parish church of Linton’, and made provision for an almshouse. He bequeathed 13s. 4d. per parish to the poor of 27 Kent and five Gloucestershire parishes, and to the poor of any other parishes ‘wherein I shall have house or land’. He also ordered that rings be provided for 30 ‘of my nearest acquaintance’ including Danvers, his cousin Nicholas Arnold*, Sir Francis Barnham*, Sir Thomas Culpeper*, John Donne*, the 1st earl of Westmorland (Sir Francis Fane*), Sir George Fane*, (Sir) Tobie Matthew*, Sir Charles Montagu*, Lord St. John of Basing (Lord John Paulet*), the 1st earl of Bolingbrook (Oliver St. John I*), Lord St. John of Bletsoe (Oliver St. John II*), Sir Henry Wotton*, and the Tuscan resident, Amerigo Salvetti. Among Mayney’s executors were his brother-in-law Sir Lewis Watson*, Sir William Parkhurst and his cousin Nicholas Younge, who was to receive 20 marks a year during the winding up of the estate ‘by reason of my debts, and of debts owing unto me’. The executors were authorized to sell lands in Gloucestershire to pay off his debts and provide his daughters with portions of 2,000 marks each. Weston was appointed overseer and bequeathed a black enamel ring inset with a diamond and a death’s head, which he was requested to wear ‘for his sake that ever entirely loved him’. Codicils were added on 6 Feb. 1626 and 26 Jan. 1627, the last of which was witnessed by Plowden.36 Mayney’s son was created a baronet in 1641, but is said to have spent his fortune in the king’s cause. No other member of the family entered Parliament.37

MERE-COURT in Murston, Kent, is an estate in this parish, once esteemed a capital mansion, and seems to have been so named from its low watery situation, near the marshes; for it does not appear to have had any owners of that surname. Thomas Abelyn held this manor in the reign of Edward I. in the 4th year of which he died, holding it of the king in capite. His grandson Thomas Abelyn, at length succeeded to it, and left his widow Isolda surviving, who, in the 21st year of that reign, married Henry de Apulderfield, which being without the king's leave, he paid his fine, and had then possession of his wife's land here and elsewhere.

Migrated to Australia 1898. Had 13 children. Two children died in England prior to leaving.
A witness to the marriage was Lena RUCK (possible sister, sister in law or paternal relation). At the time of Agnes marriage, John RUCK had died and on Agnes Marriage Cert it states that his profession was "merchant" his widow and Mary was living in Old Kent Road. Agnes Elizabeth had 2 daughters who as adults recounted stories of hunting for bluebells in the woods around Tulse HIll, Surrey. Agnes and her husband James AUSTEN, their 13 children and James' parents all migrated to Australia in 1898. 2 children died in the UK prior to embarkation and 1 more child was born in Australia. There seems to also be some possible connection to a Lord Mayor of London - Sir William ROSE, but that is still shrouded in mystery. | RUCK, Agnes Elizabeth (I8054)
