She used to put leftover griddle cakes and country sausage form breakfast on the table for a mid morning snack for her grandchildren, after they had filled the wood box. She wrapped the pancakes around the sausage like a sandwich. Cold biscuits that were leftover from lunch were split, buttered, and a little bit of granulated sugar sprinkled over them, were a treat about 4 p.m. She allowed a feather bed mattress to remain on the 3/4 bed in the little room over the downstairs hall, so the grandchildren could sleep on it all summer long. First child to get night clothes on got to jump and flop in the middle of the featherbed. It was great fun. Often 3 children were in it at one time. She also allowed the grandchildren to help churn the butter in a stone crock with a paddle, help her sweep the bare back yard with a switch broom, feed the chickens and pick up eggs even in the barn loft from the stalin nests. She was living with her daughter, Violet, in Keller when she died. |

His son Edmund published in 1705 and edition of his father's mathematical works; a catalogue of his mathematical library appeared in 1695. For further information see Munk's Roll; Venn's Biog. Hist. of Caius College; Wood's Ath. Oxon; and the Dict. of Nat. Biography (Col. John Wise, His Ancestors and Descendants). | |
Anecdote* | Sir Charles Scarburgh (1615–1694), physician and natural philosopher, son of Edmund Scarburgh, gentleman, of the parish of St Martin-in-the-Fields, and Hannah Butler(sic), was born in London on 29 December 1615 and was sent to St Paul's School. He entered Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, as a sizar on 4 March 1633 and graduated BA in 1637 and MA in 1640, at which time he was elected a fellow and concentrated on medicine and mathematics. He studied the latter with Seth Ward, then at Emmanuel College. They chose William Oughtred's Clavis mathematica as their text, and Oughtred was pleased by their visiting him at Albury in Surrey to ask an explanation of difficulties they had encountered with his text. Scarburgh, a royalist, was ejected from his Cambridge fellowship about 1644 during the civil war and entered Merton College, Oxford, where he probably intended to serve in a royalist regiment. At Merton he befriended another Caius alumnus, William Harvey, who was then Merton's warden. According to John Aubrey, Harvey told Scarburgh: ‘Prithee leave off thy gunning and stay here … I will bring thee into (medical) practice’ (J. Aubrey, Brief Lives, 1.299). By June 1645 Scarburgh was assisting Harvey in writing his De generatione animalium. Supported by letters from Harvey, Scarburgh was created MD by the chancellor of Oxford University on 23 June 1646, one day before Sir Thomas Glenham surrendered Oxford to General Fairfax and parliament. (In 1660 Scarburgh's MD was incorporated at Cambridge.) About 1647 he moved to London, joined a group of natural philosophers organized by John Wallis known as the ‘1645 Group’, and was admitted as a candidate by the College of Physicians on 25 January 1648. He maintained ties with his Oxford colleagues, arranging in 1649 with the ejected Savilian professor of astronomy, John Greaves, for Seth Ward, his mathematical friend from Cambridge, to be appointed Greaves's successor despite Ward's high-church and royalist convictions. On 8 October 1649 Scarburgh was elected anatomical reader at Surgeons' Hall, where he engaged Christopher Wren, then between Westminster School and matriculating at Oxford, as his assistant in demonstrating and making anatomical experiments. Scarburgh's association with William Oughtred and John Wallis, a founder of the Royal Society, included a shared interest in placing astrology on a solid mathematical footing, a desire that reflects the lack of a definite boundary between astrology and mainline natural philosophy and medicine in seventeenth-century England. Scarburgh was elected a fellow of the College of Physicians on 26 September 1650 and served as censor in 1655, 1664, and 1665; elect in 1677 (in place of Francis Glisson); and consiliarius in 1684, 1685, 1686, 1688, and 1689. In 1656 Harvey chose him as his successor as Lumleian lecturer in the college. Harvey bequeathed ‘my velvet gowne to my lovinge frined, Mr. Dr. Scarburgh’, as well as ‘all my little silver instruments of surgerie’ (Munk, Roll). When Harvey's friend and patient Henry Pierrepont, first marquess of Dorchester and a virtuoso of natural philosophy, was admitted as a fellow of the college in 1658 Scarburgh introduced him with a well-received Latin speech. Scarburgh delivered the Harveian oration in 1662. On 28 February 1663 Samuel Pepys recorded that he went with Scarburgh to the dissection of a seaman hanged for robbery. Scarburgh also read the anatomy lectures ‘with great applause’ (Munk, Roll) at the Barber–Surgeons' Hall for many years. Early in the Restoration Charles II appointed him first physician, and knighted him on 15 August 1669. He attended the king in his final illness and left an account in manuscript (S. Antiquaries, Lond., MS 206), which was transcribed and translated in Raymond Crawfurd's Last Days of Charles II (1909). He also served as physician to James II, before and after his accession, to the Tower of London, to Prince George of Denmark, and to William and Mary. He was MP for Camelford, Cornwall, from 1685 to 1687. Scarburgh published a short guide to human dissection, Syllabus musculorum (1676), which was a textbook for many years. He was also a member of the earl of Roscommon's ‘literary academy’ and wrote an elegy on the poet Abraham Cowley, who had been a member of Harvey's circle at Oxford; he stood bail of £1000 for Cowley in 1656. Scarburgh left materials for an English edition of Euclid, which his son Charles published in folio in 1705. Scarburgh also accumulated a valuable library concentrated on mathematical texts. According to John Evelyn's Diary for 10 March 1695, the earl of Sunderland showed me his library, now again improved by many books bought at the sale of Sir Charles Scarburgh, an eminent physician, which was the very best collection, especially of mathematical books, that was, I believe, in Europe; once designed for the King's library at St James's; but the Queen dying, who was a great patroness of that design, it was let fall, and the books were miserably dissipated. A catalogue of Scarburgh's library was issued in 1695. Scarburgh died in London on 26 February 1694 and was buried at Cranford, Middlesex, where his monument, erected by his widow, was set on the north side of the chancel.2 | |
Anecdote | Charles Scarburgh stated that "probably they (Harvey and Scarburgh) were already acquainted, since his uncle was Harvey's old friend Dr. Edmund Smith."5 | |

Birth* | 1617 | Edmund was born in 1617 at St. Martin's in-the-Fields, London, England. In Nov 1642 he was age 24, which puts his birth at 1618, but since he was baptised in Oct 1617, he must have been born earlier that year..2 |
Baptism | 2 October 1617 | He was baptized on 2 October 1617 at St. Martin's in-the-Fields, London, England.3 |
Biography* | Edmund Scarburgh, baptized 2 Oct 1617, probably accompanied his parents to Virginia. He deposed 26 Oct 1653, aged about 34, that he had lived in Virginia 22 years, but was born in London and was a trader with New Amsterdam. He was a witness in the "Accawmack" Court, March 1633/4, to a deed of sale of two wild cows by his father. In addition to the patent granted him upon the death of his father, he received also on the same date, 28 Nov 1635, 200 acres on the seaboard side in Accomack which had also been assigned previously to his father. He rose rapidly to a place of prominence in Virginia, serving as Burgess from Northampton 1643, 1645-48, 1652, 1656, 1660-62, and from Accomack 1666-70, was speaker of the House of Burgessess, 1645, Surveyor General of Virginia, 1665-70, King's Collector of quit-rents, 1663, and justice and sheriff of Northampton County. Colonel Edmund Scarburgh engaged extensively in maritime shipping and was part or sole owner of several vessels. His most important enterprise was the extraction of salt from sea water by evaporation for which he obtained a monopoly on the Eastern Shore. In his capacity as captain of militia and later as commander-in-chief of forces on the Eastern Shore, he led a number of raids against Indians. His difficulties with them led him to harsh and unjust treatment of the savages, on which and other charges he was tried and by order of the General Court, 1670, he was suspended from "all offices as well as military and civil until by his future obedience and fidelity it shall please the Right Honorable the Governor to restore him." He has been called arrogant, contentious and power hungry and had made, in 1663, an unofficial effort to annex the Maryland settlements at Annemessex and Manokin (now Dorchester and Somerset Counties, Maryland) to Accomack County by moving a boundary point thirty miles to the north. His death was noted by Governor Sir William Berkeley, 1671, and on 23 May 1671 his son Charles and his sons-in-law John West and Devorax Browne were granted letters of administration of his estate in place of Mary Scarburgh, relict of Edmund. His estate was much involved and included land holdings in Virginia and Maryland variously estimated to be between 46,000 and 75,000 acres (Adventurers of Purse and Person, 3rd Ed, pp. 542-543). Devoras Browne was appointed administrator for Col. Edmund Scarburgh's estate in 1672, but there was no order of qualification (Acc Co Orders, 1671-1673(iv), p. 188). | |
Will - GrUncle's* | 18 July 1625 | Edmund was named in his great-uncle's will on 18 July 1625 at St. Martines in the Fields, England. In his will Lordinge Barry -- brother of Alice (Barry) Smith, mother of Hannah (Smith) Scarburgh -- gave Charles, son of Edmond Scarburgh of Saint Martines in the Fields 3/. to buy him a gold ring. Exts & residuary legatees were Hannah, wife to Edmond Scarburgh of St Martins in the Fields and Edmond, son to said Edmond and Hannah.4 |
Immigrated* | circa 1631 | Edmund immigrated to at Accomack Co, VA, circa 1631.5 |
Marriage* | circa 1638 | He married Mary Cade (Cade?) circa 1638 at Accomack Co, VA.6 |
Anecdote* | circa 1638 | In his will Francis Pott, wife Susanna, named his three sisters Mary, Catherine and Bridget and gave them £10 each, and if any of them should be dead then to the survivors. (NOTE: Whitelaw states he "has a feeling" and "has a theory" that Mary married Edmund Scarburgh and Katherine married Randall Revell, which might account for the later intimate relations between the two men. To account for these close relations, some have thought that Revell had married a sister of Scarburth, but no proof was found that Katharine was a Scarburgh. At the time of his marriage, Scarburgh was living on N3 which was adjacent to the N5 land of Francis Pott, so perhaps the marriage was due to proqinquity and practical considerations, which would explain the differences in ages of the the two. When Scarburgh moved to Accomack, he sold his Northampton land to Pott. Whitelaw also stated that Francis Pott's sister Bridget is known to have been married to Dr. John Severne (N70) and to Captain Stephen Charlton (N75). This Bridget was his neice and the sister to his nephew John Pott, named in his will.)7,8 |
Land patented* | between 1640 and 1646 | Col. Edmund [3] Scarburgh (II) (Burgess) patented land between 1640 and 1646 at tract N3, Magothy Bay, Northampton Co, VA. In 1640 Edmund Scarburgh was granted 600 acres of this tract. In 1643 he was granted another 100 acres to begin a Craddock's Pond and extend easterly toward the Long Point. In 1664 he was granted a composite patent (mostly reissues) for 1,050 acres, this included 350 acres of bayside land, 250 acres at the bottom of this tract and 50 acres called Sandy Island, while the balance of 400 acres was elsewhere on the seaside. Scarburgh must have lived on N3, as he did not move to the present Accomack County until after he had taken out the patent in 1649 for A17 in the name of his son Edmund.9 |

Francis Pott (sheriff of Accomack) complained to the court that whereas there are diverse orders, sequestrations and executions against the estate and person of Lt. Col. Edm. Scarburgh, yet the said Scarburgh hath (in great contempt) carried part of his estate so sequestered out of the county and is with all gone out of the colony, and wholly neglected either to pay the debts, or answer the suits. Therefore, the said sheriff humbly prayeth that he may be empowered to attach the estate of the said Scarburgh (any way remaining in the county of Accomack) which the court considered unto, provided that his order does not (-----) any former order, made within one year before the date hereof. To the right honorable Rich. Bennett, Esq. governor, the humble petition of Francis Pott (sheriff of Accomack) showeth that whereas Lt. Col. Edm. Scarburgh hath been arrested in several actions that your petitioner (not knowing the consequences of them) hath not taken such security of the said Scarburgh as may be sufficient to save your petitioner harmless from defect where in both he and his security are in great danger to suffer to their utter undoing the premises considered, you petitioner humbly (-----) and order of sequestration against all the said Scarburgh's estate in this county.

And your petitioner shall pray. Recorded 27 July 1654. NOTE: A page before this record it was recorded that Humph. Higginson, Rich. Bennett (Gov.), Bridge Freeman, Wm. Clayborne, Wm. Taylor & Tho.

Scarburgh hath laden on board the ship where in he comes, grew at quantities of arms and ammunition for trade with the Indians. You are hereby desired and requested to inquire strictly into this matter, and to search for the same, and having found any powder, shot, guns (or other arms) or ammunition, whether Tomahawks, pole axes, or any unusual weapons, either on board the ship, or upon the land, that you seize the same, and secure it until further order, and for as much as the safety of the whole country and the preservation and the execution of the laws there of, I am particular and very concerned that you would therefore be very active and farewell herein, and to put forth that power and discharge that trust reposed in you, to the utmost, in the effectual performance hereof, and in assisting the sheriff for raising the power of this county (if need be) and for as much as the said Edm. Scarburgh stands suspected and accused for trading with Indians for guns, powder, shot (contrary to the known laws of the county) and to the great endangering the peace thereof, that you would inquire into those things (according to the power committed to your and your duty on that behalf) and return all such executions and proceedings as you shall make there in either concerning the aforesaid Scarburgh (or any other) to the governor and council at the next quarter court for which this shall by your sufficient warrant given under our hands. Signed at James City 14 March 1653. In response - To the right honorable governor and council - These are to certify that we underwritten (in obedience to your command therein expressed) made diligent search on board the ship which Lt. Col. Edm. Scarburgh came out of England in, and on board a sloop laden with goods, coming on shore, and also in his house on land. To the uttermost of our power and can find neither powder, shot, nor guns, nor any other arms or weapons usual or unusual, more than one chest of fowling pieces belonging unto one Mr. Bateman, a merchant, which are to furnish this place, with a great cargo of goods covenanted for this place, but neither powder nor shot to be had with them, this is to uttermost power. Signed your servants: Tho. Hunt, Rich. Vaughan, Tho. Sprigg and Wm. Jones. The number of guns in the chest above mentioned, was forty-seven. Recorded 29 May 1654 in Northampton.15 |
Land sold* | 1 May 1656 | He sold land on 1 May 1656 at tract N3, Magothy Bay, Northampton Co, VA. According to Whitelaw, after the death of John Smart, the husband of Edmund Scarburgh's daughter Tabitha, Scarburgh had made other provisions for Tabitha and he now sold this tract to Capt. Francis Pott. The deed states: whereas, I, Edmund Scarburgh, have formerly assigned unto Capt. Francis Pott several parcells of land at Maggottey Bay, according to their several patents & assignments thereupon; indorsed; and also one lease of 200 acres for 999 years. All the land & every part thereof & all other land that I ever had at Maggettey Bay (excepting what is already disposed to Christopher Dixon & Thomas Moore), I do by these presents for me & my heirs, Extrs, etc.... by this deed of sale wherein I acknowledge to have received full satisfaction by the same by 10,000 lbs tobacco & one cow already received & disposed to the use of heirs Charles, Edmund & Littleton Scarburgh. Being now in the hands of Mr. Wm. Waters & Mr. Wm. Whittington in the paenall sum of 20,000 lbs tobacco, that the said Francis Pott, his heirs & assignes shall peaceably enjoy the land and every part thereof without lett, etc... only paying (on demand) yearly an ear of Indian Corn. Signed 1 May 1656 Edm: Scarburgh (Seal). Witt: Sam'll Goldsmyth, Jno. Bateman & George Parker. Recorded 16 Dec 1657.9,16 |
Court - defendant* | 28 May 1656 | He was a defendant in a court case on 28 May 1656 at Northampton Co, VA. Whitelaw states that during the long and effective ministry of Rev. Thomas Teackle, only one cloud overshadowed his good name and there is reason to believe that it was only a mental one in the mind of the brilliant, but erratic Col. Edmund Scarburgh. On 28 May 1656 Teackle filed a petition with the Northampton Court assembled at Occahannock that he was under several reproaches undeservedly cast upon him by Col. Edmund Scarburgh concerning an act of fornication with his wife and attempting to take away his life by poison. Although Scarburgh had never been able to prove any of those things against Teackle, and since Teackle about to depart the country under this cloud of infamy, requested the court to take the matter into serious examination and give reparations as they found needful. The county commissioners referred the case to the Governor and Council at James City, although Scarburgh declined the first charge of fornication for several reasons shown to the Court persuading to alter and better his opinion concerning his wife. (NOTE: His wife Mary was age 46 and Rev. Teackle was age 27.) Whether or not the matter ever had a further airing at James City is unknown as there is no reference to it in the few extant General Court records. On 25 June 1656, upon the petition of 35 of his parishioners of Nuswattocks Parish, the Court ruled that Thomas Teackle be pleased to officiate in his ministry having good reason to believe him to be of honest behavior since his residence in this country, which causes us to continue our good opinion notwithstanding the calumnious reproach cast up him.17 |
Death* | May 1671 | Edmund died in May 1671 at Hedra Cottage, Occahannock Cr, Acc Co, VA.18 |
Burial* | His body was interred at Hedra Cottage, Scarborough Neck, Acc Co, VA.19 | |
Admin of estate* | 1672 | Administration of Edmund's estate was filed in 1672 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that Devoras Browne was named to settle his estate. There was no order of qualifications.20 |
Deposition named in* | 17 April 1675 | He was named in a deposition on 17 April 1675 at Accomack Co, VA. Deposition of Elizabeth Robinson aged about 45 or 46 years: About four years ago in March or April, when Elizabeth was at Garathia (sic) House, Col. Scarburgh asked if Richard Hinman had any steers to sell. Elizabeth said he would sell him a couple in part payment for land he had purchased from "Mrs. Ann." Col. Scarburgh said it would be good pay, and Ann agreed. When Elizabeth told Hinman, he seemed very glad. Later Elizabeth heard Hinman say that Capt. Jenifer advised him to "arrest" the administrators [of Scarburgh's estate], and if they would not pay him, then to "arrest" Jenifer and he would "sue his bond of the administrators" and make them pay him. Signed, Elizabeth (ER) Robinson. Recorded 7 May 1675 by Jno. Washbourne.21 |

In January 1623 Harmar informed the General Court that John Raimond had killed one of Lady Dale's cattle near the Chickahominy River. In August he returned to court to serve on a jury. On 21 Jun 1624 Charles Harmar who gave his age as 24, testified in a slander suit that involved Capt. William Eppes and Ensign Thomas Savage and concerned an incident that had occurred on the Eastern Shore. By early 1625 Harmar was living there and shared a home with 3 other men. On 9 Feb 1625 he was still identified as Lady Dale's overseer when plans were made to settle certain debts attributable to the late George Thorpe. Harmar was indebted to surgeon Thomas Bunn and his neighbor William Davis, whom he was ordered to pay. On 3 Apr 1627 Charles Harmar described as Lady Elizabeth Dale's former overseer, appeared before the General Court and under oath delivered to William Hambey an account of her personal estate. Included were the cattle, tobacco, corn and other goods that had been in Harmar's possession since he had taken custody of them from Henry Watkins, his predecessor. On 9 Dec 1628, Charles Harmar was given permission to plant a neck of land on the south side of Old Plantation Creek, property rumored to belong to Lady Elizabeth Dale. By 1632 Harmar had become a burgess and a commissioner of Accomack's local court. In June 1635 he patented a large tract of land on the Eastern Shore, using as headrights himself and his wife, Ann, the daughter and final heir of the late Henry Soothey of Jamestown Island. Among those with whom Charles Harmar had business dealings was cape merchant Abraham Peirsey.2 |

Marriage* | 1659 | She married Randall Revell I (Burgess) in 1659 at Manokin, Som Co, MD.3 |
Anecdote* | 1659 | In his will dated 13 Oct 1658 Francis Pott, wife Susanna, named his three sisters Mary, Catherine and Bridget and gave them £10 each, and if any of them should be dead then to the survivors. (NOTE: Whitelaw states he "has a feeling" and "has a theory" that Mary married Edmund Scarburgh and Katherine married Randall Revell, which might account for the later intimate relations between the two men. To account for these close relations, some have thought that Revell had married a sister of Scarburth, but no proof was found that Katharine was a Scarburgh. At the time of his marriage, Scarburgh was living on N3 which was adjacent to the N5 land of Francis Pott, so perhaps the marriage was due to proqinquity and practical considerations, which would explain the differences in ages of the the two. When Scarburgh moved to Accomack, he sold his Northampton land to Pott. Bridget is known to have been married to Dr. John Severne (N70) and to Captain Stephen Charlton (N75).)4,5 |

Biography* | In 1649 a patent was given to Edmund Scarburgh, Jr. for 2,000 acres. The next year the Indian rights were bought from Okiawampe, "great Kinge of the Easterne Shore." In that deed the land was called Occhannocke; today it is known as Scarburgh's Neck. The patentee was the second son of Colonel Edmund, who took out patents in the names of each of his children. In 1652 a patent was given to Littleton Scarburgh for 1,000 acres, which was reissued in 1664. Littleton was the youngest son of Colonel Edmund. In 1653 it seemed advisable for the colonel to leave the Shore for a while, so in this year he leased the whole 3,000 acres to William Bunton of Boston "for and dureinge the Tearme of ffourteene yeares, att which tyme my sonne Edmund will come to age." No record was noted of a cancellation of the lease, but shortly afterwards the colonel was again in residence here, where he continued until his death in 1671. The son Littleton had died under age and without issue, and the eldest son, Charles Scarburgh, claimed the land. The suit went on up to the General court which in 1672 ruled as shown in the land dispute. Although no record of his birth has been found, the above statements imply that he was born in 1646. This is based on the statement that in 1653 his father leased land previously patented to his son for fourteen years, at which time he would come to age. Assuming come to age meant 21 years. "Capt. Edmund Scarburgh, second son of Col. Edmund Scarburgh, like his brother Charles, held high positions in Accomack County, including both civil and military offices (Va. Mag. Hist. & Biog., Vol. I., pp. 229-231.) In 1677 he was justice of Accomack and a signatory party to the historic Accomack Memorial, which was submitted to Governor Berkeley after the collapse of Bacon's Rebellion (Wise, p. 44). | |

Edmund Scarburgh in his life time did patent for his son Littleton Scarburgh, 1,000 acres for which Charles Scarburgh the elder brother of Edmond did sue him in N'hamp County Court from which Edmond appealed to this General Court. It is ordered that the land in Edmonds patent be surveyed allowing him ten percent in the survey, and if any over plus land be found within the bounds thereof, then, that to remain to Charles Scarburgh as heir to his brother Littleton.5 |

Anecdote* | 1690 | When Nathaniel Tunnell sold land in 1689, no wife signed to release her dower right, so it is assumed his firt wife was dec'd.
