Notes

Includes index.

Samuel Abell I (d.1697/1698) was in St. Mary's County, Maryland during or before 1689, and was probably an immigrant (possibly a transported immigrant, and probably illiterate). Descendants and relatives lived in Maryland, Kentucky and elsewhere. Includes details of other Abell immigrants, and discusses possibilities of their being related to Samuel I. This book emphasizes the part that the Abell family, chiefly descendants of Samuel I, played in the history of Maryland and the history of St. Mary's County, particularly during the Revolutionary War. Includes biographies of Abell soldiers.

Includes Clarke, Fenwick, Greenwell, Spalding, Thomas, Wimsatt, Biscoe, Bond, Calvert, Crane, Dunbar, Forrest, Hall, Hutchings, King, Milburn, Mills, Morgan, Norris, Simmons, Taylor, Thompson, Urquhart, Williams, Wise and related families.

Also available on microfilm and digital images.
