Early Surnames in Standish-Incl Greening

IT IS NOT KNOWN WHERE IN ENGLAND OUR FAMILY CAME FROM-sgs

From MIKE GREENING in England:

"what happened to Daniel Greening who sailed from Bristol in 1676 to be master of a plantation in Virginia? 

Or Jabez Greening who was sentenced to be an indentured servant to William Davies in Maryland and sailed on the "Expectation" from Bristol on 11th September 1679 ? I
MY NOTE-See Maryland Records below-sgs

Or James Greening who was sentenced to transportation to the Americas (for stealing) in April 1757? 

The above three all came from Gloucestershire."

Yours sincerely - Mike.

The persons brought to Virginia as headrights received no land, only those who paid their own passage. The right to land due by importing headrights could be sold to another person before the patent was issued. Patents were often issued years and even decades after the names of headrights were submitted, and the headright did not necessarily reside on the land described in the patent. Patents were often re-patented to clarify or strengthen the title. An excellent discussion of these points is found in Richard Slatten, "Interpreting Headrights in Colonial Virginia Patents: Uses and Abuses," National Genealogical Society Quarterly 75 (September 1987): 169-179.

MY NOTE-The above JOHN GREENING is most likely the father of MASON GREENING who appears in South Carolina in mid 1760's.  This John Greening was a grandson of Robert Frank SR who left a will in 1726 Westmoreland County, Va. Mason Greening of South Carolina would be a great gr/son of Robert Frank. So many of the Virginia records have been lost, primarily to courthouse fires, it is literally impossible to prove the lineage. However, Mason Greening of South Carolina had a close relationship with the Knighton family, who were also great gr/children of Robert Frank.-SGS

PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY RECORDS

Records from Rootsweb World Connect Postings concerning OWEN GREENING

Verlinda Wright, Dtr of John Wright of Westmoreland Co (M) OWEN GREENING &  ROBERT PECK

*Excerpt from John Wright (Westmoreland County Overseer):*

A. _Virlinda Or Virlandoe (Wright) (Greenin) Peck, Her Husbands
Owen Greenin And Robert Peck, And Her Descendants

_ Virlandoe (Wright) (Greenin) Peck was a daughter of John Wright
(Overseer of Westmoreland County) and _____ (Williams) Wright. (John1)

In his work "Some Descendants of Richard Wright, Gentleman, of
London, England, and Northumberland, Va., 1655," published _in Tyler's
Quarterly Historical and Genealogical Magazine_, Vol. I, pages 127-141
and 177-191, 1919, and reprinted in _Genealogies of Virginia Families
From Tyler's Quarterly Historical and Genealogical Magazine_, published
by Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore, Maryland, 1981, Charles
Arthur Hoppin stated as follows with regard to John Wright (Overseer of
Westmoreland County):
"One June 30, 1709: "Ordered Virlandoe Wright, daughter of John
Wright of Upper Machotique, mark of Cattle & Hoggs be Recorded.
[Westmoreland Orders &c. 1705 to 1721, page 126.]"


On October 18, 1731, at Prince William County, Virginia, D.B. B/64
Vellender Greenin appointed John Wright, Gentleman, her attorney in fact
to acknowledge her right of dower in 200 acres of land sold by her
husband Owin Greenin:
"Know all men by these Presents that I Vellender Greenin the Wife of
Owin Greein of the Parish of Hanover in the County of Pr. Wm. Doe
Constitute and appoint Jon. Wright Gent to acknowledge my right of
Dowrey and thirds at the Common Law of in to Two hundred acres of Land
Sold by my Said Husband unto William McBee and his heirs for Ever
relation thereto being had it doth and may fully and at Large Appear and
for so Doing this shall be his Sufficient Warrent as witness my hand and
Seal this Eighteen Day of Obr Anno Domini 1731

Signed Sealed and De- Vellender V Greenin
livered In the Presence her mark and Seal
of us Tested by Owin Greenin, Thos :T Dunigan

At a Court Continued & held for Prince William County the Twenty
first Day of October 1731

The Within Power of Atturney from Vellender Greenon to John Wright
was Proved by the oaths of the Witnesses thereto admitted to Record

Test
Catesby Cooke Cl Cur."

The given female names of Virlandoe and Vellender are so unusual and so
similar sounding that Vellender Greenin of Prince William D.B. B/64 was
probably the same person as Virlandoe Wright, the daughter of John
Wrigh
t, of Westmoreland County Court Order 1705-1721/126. The only John
Wright, Gentleman, in Prince William County in 1731 was 1792 John Wright
of Fauquier County, who had been elected a justice of the county. A
power of attorney was typically given to a trusted relative, which
suggests that 1792 John Wright of Fauquier County was related to
Vellender (Wright) Greenin. As will be set forth below, 1792 John
Wright of Fauquier County was born before October 2, 1700, and
Virlandoe/Vellender (Wright) Greenin was in 1709 old enough to record a
mark and yet young enough not to be married and was married by 1731,
indicating that John and Virlandoe/Vellender were of similar ages and,
therefore, probably siblings.

1) On March 28, 1735, at Orange County, Virginia, D.B. __/__ Owen
Grinan of Overwharton Parish sold to Rev. Alexander Scott 481 acres of
land; and
2) On November 1, 1742, the Northern Neck Land Grant of William
Johnson listed his land as adjacent to that of Owen Grennons on Broad
Run of Occoquan. As set forth below, Occoquan was where the land of
Charles Wright, possible son of John Wright the Overseer, was located.

Colonial Families of the Northern Neck of Virginia_, by Ralph and
Catherine Beverly stated that:
". . . .
On 5 Dec 1754 Robert Peck and his wife Virlinda of KG Co. and Thomas
Stribling and his wife Elizabeth, of WC, sold to Richard Vowles of WC,
107a., beginning at the n. side of a branch of Machotick Damm a little
below Jordan's Bridge which land fell upon the decease of John Wright to
his dau. Virlinda, now wife of Robert Peck, now sold by Robert Peck and
Virlinda his wife and Thomas Stribling and his wife Elizabeth, dau. of
sd. Robert and Virlinda Peck. {WC DW, 1753-1756

John Wright was the father of Virlnda, who m. Robert Peck, and had
issue Elizabeth Peck who m. Thomas Stribling."

Married Well And Often_ by Robert K. Headley, Jr., listed the
marriage of Virlinda Wright, daughter of John Wright, and Robert Peck,
son of William Peck, Sr., before December 5, 1754, citing King George
County, Virginia, W.B. A/25 and Westmoreland County, Virginia, D.&W.B.
12/188:
"Peck, Robert & Wright, Virlinda; bef. 5 Dec 1754; groom was a son
of Wm. Peck Sr. (d. KGC 1754); bride was a dau. of Jn. Wright; (KGC WB
a:25; WC DW 12:188)"

Although the reasonable conclusion to be reached from the records
cited by these two source is that Elizabeth (Peck) Stribling was the
daughter of Robert Peck and Virlinda (Wright) Peck, _Married Well And
Often_ by Robert K. Headley, Jr., also listed the marriage of Thomas
Stribling and Elizabeth Peck on March 8, 1752, citing the St. Paul's
Parish Register. If Elizabeth Peck was at least 16 years of age at the
time of her marriage, then she would have been born before about 1737.
But as set forth above, Virlinda (Wright) (Greenin) Peck's first husband
Owen Greenin did not die until 1743, so Elizabeth (Peck) Stribling was
probably a daughter of Robert Peck by a marriage prior to his marriage
to Virlinda (Wright) Greenin. These records indicate that Virlinda
(Wright) Greenin and Robert Peck were married sometime after February
12, 1743,
and before December 5, 1754.

Francis Gough, b. abt 1743, possibly in King George Co., VA. Married Verlinda Peck. Francis died abt 1789 probably in Fauquier Co., Va

From Rev War Pension Application of Sarah Crosthwaite Greening: # W 10071
Widow of James Greening
(1752-1836)

May 8, 1850, Boone Co, Missouri 
(Statement of Martha Greening, Sister & John Crosthwaite, Brother,)
 in support of claim of Sarah Greening, widow of James Greening, in Application for Widow's pension.)
On this eighth day of May, 1850, in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and fifty, personally appeared before the County Court for Boone County aforesaid, MARTHA GREENING and JOHN CROSTHWAITE, residents of the County of Boone, respectable persons, worthy of credit, on Oaths, who being first duly sworn, make Oath and say that they are well acquainted with the said SARAH GREENING, foregoing claimant; were well acquainted with JAMES GREENING, deceased, formerly a Revolutionary Soldier, and that they know the said SARAH GREENING was the wife, and now is, and since the death of the said JAMES GREENING, has been the widow of the said JAMES GREENING, that said SARAH GREENING has never been married since the death of the said JAMES GREENING; that they are well aware of the fact that the said JAMES GREENING and SARAH GREENING were married about the year 1784, or 1785; the precise time they cannot state, but it was certainly before the year 1790, and they continued to live together as man and wife until the death of the said JAMES GREENING, but believe that the time of his death is truly stated in the foregoing affidavit of SARAH GREENING; and from the best sources of information they possess, they believe that said JAMES GREENING died about the 4th day of June, A. D., 1836; that they are brother and sister of the said SARAH GREENING, and have been well acquainted with her during their whole lives and except for a small interim have always lived in the immediate vicinity of each other and have known all important circumstances connected with her.

From Ernie L Greening (Missouri)

Mark Left Behind.

Mark Twain did not carry away with him vivid recollections of this house. He was three years old when his father moved. A story is related of his life there, however, which is probably the first the author told at his expense. Mrs. J. W. Greening of Palmyra, Mo., Mr. Clemens's cousin and old playmate, was responsible for it. Mrs. Greening described how the family prepared to leave the Florida house, and continued:

"The household goods had all been loaded on one wagon, and after it had been started the family all piled into another wagon. After Uncle John (Mark Twain's father) had nailed up the doors and windows of the deserted house, he mounted the seat, clucked to the horses, and drove off, leaving little Sam making mud pies on the opposite side of the house. A half hour later my grandfather, Wharton Lampton, came riding along and saw Sam busy making mud pies. He lifted the boy up in front of him, drove after the movers, and when he traveled seven or eight miles caught up with them. The matter was taken as a huge joke by all concerned."

The Cousin of Mark Twain

Among the New Year's gifts received in Palmyra this year was a check for fifty dollars, coming from the estate of Samuel L. Clements (Mark Twain) to Mrs. Tabitha Greening, who makes her home with her son-in-law Al Pollman of this City.  

During his life the great humorist made Mrs. Greening monthly remittance of twenty-five dollars, and in his will provided that the same should be kept as long as she lived.  The New Year's check is also a regular transaction, but is voluntary on the part of the heirs.

Mrs. Greening, as many of our readers know, was not only a favorite cousin of Mark Twain, but was his playmate in Florida, Mo., where he was born and later in Hannibal.  She is the original "Aunt Polly" and "Cousin Mary" in Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn, and also finds a place in many of his other books under different names.  Where a woman or girl appears in one of Mark Twain's books it is safe to say that the original was either Mrs. Greening or Laura Hawkins, now Mrs. Frazer of Hannibal.-Palmyra Spectator

Mrs. Greening is the mother of A. L. Greening of this city and was for many years a resident of Hunnewell, and visits her son here often where she has many friends."

To William Greening (Charles Town) 24th December 1767
Sir, I recieved your favour of the 12th Inst. & note its contents. Nothing would give me more Pleasure than to be servicable to you in the request you make to purchase Negroes on your account if it could be done without risque of embarassing my own affairs, but you must know, Sir, from an extensive acquaintance & Correspondence I have insensibly been drawn into many Security-ships & engagements for my friends that Prudence & duty to my Family forbids me to go any furthur at present. If those were not sufficient Checks, some very heavy Losses sustained within two years past, would admonish me to be more cautious. In short, Sir, I dare not until I am somewhat less bound on other People's Accounts become Surety for any Man without an ample & clear counter-security; & Negroes are not to be purchased here without ready Money, or Interest from the date & good Security before the Property is altered. My Time & the little Judgement I have are at your service, whenever you please to bid for & buy Negroes when you can make the Payments agreeable to the Sellers or offer such Security as would indemnify me in act of such Friendship as to assume your debt.
I beg you will not be offended at this candid declaration & that you will be pleased to accept such Services as my affairs will allow me to offer you.
As to the former debt for the Negroe Woman, cancel it when convenient to you, & if that is not likely to happen soon & you shall be pleased to put it in that State of Security which such Debts are always put upon & which you hint at I shall be obliged to you. Thank God Mrs. Laurenss & my family are well & join in Compliments & good wishes with , Sir, & ca.- Source: Letterbook copy,, HL Papers, SSC. Hist. Soc; addressed 'St. Augustine'; per Capt. Doran.'
