Hello, my name is Mac Bozman and this is part of my line. Edward(1)
Bozman, transported to Md. 1741(Peter Coldham's Book), crime of
stealing a shirt, and could not pay fine. Did well in Baltimore Co.
MD owned several farms, 3 slaves. Appears to marry 3 times, 1)
Eliza, in 1743, dau. Margaret b. 13 Nov 1744, both appear to die
young.
2)M. 27 Feb. 1749/50 Rose/Rosanah Lyon
3) m. 1773 Francis Sanders/Saunders
Edward's will of 1797(misfiled under Rosman), lists children:James,
Wilkes, William, Edward(2), Sarah, Eliz., Kerrenhoppeck, Mary.
Wife 2 is probably mother of Edward(2), Rosanah, Sarah, Eliz.
Wife 3 is probably mother of Kerenhoppeck, Mary, James, and Wilkes b.
15 Aug. 1776, and William, b. 1791(?)
Edward (2) Moves to Brooke Co.(W.)VA c. 1805 and later to Morgan Co.
OH
Wilkes m. c. 1803 in MD Ruth Royston(poss. Risdon) which is my
line(abr. ml) They have children:
Edward(3ml) b.c. 1805 m. 1/2 cousin Kerenhoppeck
Bozman, dau. of Edward(2) He dies 1827 in Brooke Co. WVA. Widow,
2 children move to Morgan Co. OH. She remarries to Ignaustius
Wheeler.
Other children of Wilkes and Ruth are:
John Royston 7 March 1807- 22 Mar. 1890
Frances S. 25 Jan 1809-14 Sept. 1847
Ruth 16 Ap. 1811, d. 17 June 1845
Eliz. b. 1816-14 Aug. 1846
William b. 11Dec. 1813
Wife/mother Ruth Royston Bozman dies by 1819, Baltimore Co. MD.
Wilkes joins his 1/2 brother, Edward(2) in Brooke Co. WVA then moves
to Morgan Co. OH, McConnellsville.
My research in London has probable father of Edward(1), "the
transported" as Edward(Z) b. 1693.
Also London research shows Bozman(var. Spellings) in London (City) by
1590 as Dutch imigrants employed as "silk-twisters". I have some good
research through 1600s, then gaps in 1700s. Interestingly 1600s
Bozmans feature Henry, b. 1653, William, b. 1638, Raulf(Ralph)b.
1629, Ambrose b.1645 and Thomas b.1650 as surviving sons of Henry
Bosman, d. 1662, St. Benet's Wharf Parrish.
More later, best wishes, Mac
