Thomas is believed with some certainty to have been christened at Birchden, Withyham, East Sussex, on July 14, 1630, as the son of Edward Stonstrete. He was transported to America as servant to William Waters and married a fellow servant, Elizabeth Butler, c.1688. By 1668\/9, he had received a land grant from Charles Calvert of a 150-acre tobacco plantation in St. Mary's (now Charles) County, which he named Birchden after his English birthplace. He would acquire a great deal more land over the ensuing years conveying Birchden to his eldest son Thomas, and living out his days on a second plantation known as Morris' Help. He died c.1706, having fathered four children, and his will and estate inventory have survived to this day. Thomas Stonestreet's descendants are traced down through the male lines of his two sons, Edward (born c.1673) and Thomas (born c.1682). Each descendant has been assigned an individual reference number and the last recorded descendants bring the family up to the 1850s. This genealogy is enhanced by a series of entries copied from the Bishop's transcripts from Withyham, Sussex, and the parish register of East Grinsted, Sussex, noting Stonstreet births, baptisms, marriages, and deaths, as well as Sussex probates and assizes. Surname variations include Stonstreete, Stonstreat, Stanstreet, Stanstrete, Stanstreete, Stanstret, Stanstrett and Stansted.

Early family historians believed that John Hawley\/Halley was a member of the large Catholic Middlesex, England, family of Hawley. In documenting the descendants of John and Hester, the author has identified those who secured housing and fishing rights from President George Washington, one who purchased a lime kiln from President Thomas Jefferson, one who became the first congresswoman from South Carolina, one who married a famous artist of the Hudson Valley School, and one who was a famous artist. There are those who were penniless and those who were wealthy; those who served our nation proudly throughout every war our country fought, including those who fought on both sides during the Civil War and participated in the surrender at Appomattox Court House; those who accompanied Col. John Fairfax to settle what is now West Virginia; those who moved into the area surveyed by Lewis and Clark in Kentucky; those who migrated to the West; those who were instrumental in contributing to the industrial boom, those who taught school; those who preached religion to their fellow man; and those who practiced medicine.

The years covered in Volume 4 also reveal an unbroken political, social and economic effort to move the county seat from its two-century-old site on Port Tobacco Creek to La Plata's more promising location on the Pope's Creek Branch of the railroad. In the early 1880s, Charles County legislators in Annapolis began making a pitch for state government support for the removal of the Charles County seat. By this time, several of Port Tobacco's most prosperous and most progressive merchants had moved to La Plata and had built new homes—probably more comfortable than any they had ever known in the sleepy, tidewater village. Political attitudes also were shifting, and the previously detested Republican party found new followers. The erratic but promising infusion of black society into the machinery of politics, government, and education was to be noted in many issues of the \u003cem\u003ePort Tobacco Times\u003c\/em\u003e of this period. The reader will find newspaper items of historical and genealogical interest, such as local events, marriages, deaths, court cases, and real estate listings.

Just before Christmas of 1872, the tracks of southern Maryland's first railroad finally reached the sleepy shore of the Potomac River. Studding the right-of-way of the new rail line from the main road seventy miles north, a series of new stations appeared almost overnight, built hurriedly to support commerce and communications from Huntingtown to Popes Creek on the river. One of them, La Plata Station, sprung up four miles east of Port Tobacco. This single event, more than any other, led to political and commercial bitterness marked by a viciousness that pitted old established families against one another. With each day that went by, from then until the last few years of the nineteenth century, came increasing demands that La Plata Station displace the two-centuries old community on Port Tobacco Creek as Charles County, Maryland's seat of government.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDuring the period covered by this volume, 1870-1875, while business interests supplied the greatest force for courthouse removal, other factors did play a part. These included deteriorating transportation facilities, health conditions and unfavorable geography. The Maryland Assembly in the 1727 edict demanded the location of the village where it eventually became settled—on the banks of a twisting, turgid stream extremely narrow and vulnerable to spring freshet flooding and unable to support even the traffic of flat-bottomed tenders moving cargo from ship to shore. For the first time in recent years, Volume 3 presents an outline of the first clearly delineated political subdivisions of Charles County. These were the nine election district areas established by the General Assembly in 1868. Descriptions of the boundaries of these districts gives the reader an interesting and precise look at the general political and geographic make-up of the county as it was just after the Civil War.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoberta J.

By English law dated 1659, it was lawful for justices of the peace to kidnap children found begging or vagrant and ship them to the plantations as servants without indentures. The younger the child, the longer the sentence, and the colonial county courts were the judges of their ages.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThese five thousand names, culled from the Court Order Books, some of which have not been examined for centuries, have now been compiled into one genealogical index. In almost every case the entries provide the name of the child, the name of the owner, the date they appeared in court, and the age assigned by the judges, many of whom owned the very children they were sentencing to servitude. For ease of use, the volume contains an index to the ships-and their captains-that imported these kidnapped children, as well as a surname index to guide the researcher to alternate or incorrect spellings as found in the Court Order Books. The Introduction to Mr. Phillips's book describes the history and conditions of white servitude in colonial Maryland and Virginia, along with an annotated list of the sources he consulted.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFamilies who have traced their ancestry back to a name that appears in this index will know for the first time how their progenitor got to Maryland or Virginia.
