Note:

[lisabackup3C.FTW]

In "Genealogy and History," Vol. 5. No. 4, 15 may 1944, Washington D.C., editor Adrian Mount wrote: "Major Samuel Lane, Cherugeon (surgeon) of Anne Arundel Co.l md., came into Md., ca 1663. Some descendants claim that he was Samuel Lane, age 7 who was registered April 16, 1635 at Port of London, England, for a voyage to Providence Island on ship "Expectation" with parents, Richard, 38, Alice age 30, brothers Jo4, Ozelle 3 -- The English Calander of State Papers for 1574 to 1660 contains many references to this Richard & Wife, which leads me to believe, this Samuel is not the one of Anne Arundel Co., Md.

Considerable search of English records has been made and the most likely family for our Samuel, seems to be that of John Lane of Hammersmith of 1674 will. His first wife was Margery Wells, daughter of George Wells, alderman of Wycombe Buck County, England. They probably lived on the estate, Browsley Hall and Burage Blossom & Burrage end, which John Burridge had bought in early 1660's. p. 14 [alternative parentage]. Undisputed is the following: Samuel surveyed land (800 acres) with Richard Wells in Maryland, July 20, 1669, "Ye Northward of Anne Arundel on ye ridge Manor known as Browsley Hall." Browsley Hall, which undoubtly was the same as "Breshey Hall," which Richard Wells had bequeathed to Samuel Lane, this same tract.

From Fannie Lane Steele's book (1991)

"Major Samuel Lane, son of Richard and Alice Carter Lane, b. about 1628 in London England, went with his parents in 1635 to the Isle of Providence and was back in England in 1657. In 1663 Samuel immigrated to Maryland from England with immigrants transported by Thomas Vaughn. Samuel's double first cousin, John Lane [I see no connection for a double first cousin in this book as none of the siblings of his father, Richard are listed as having married a Carter] , mentions in his will made September 8, 1670 in London and lists Samuel as a clerk which usually refers to a clergyman. Another reference indicates that Samuel Lane was a minister at Long Houghton, Northumberland and was married to Barbara Roddam. Because of a difference of opinion in the Church, Samuel was "ejected." His wife was evidently dead by the time Samuel came to America. He married in 1669 to Margaret Maulden Burridge, daughter of Frances and Grace Burridge [typo acc to Fanny, should read: Maulden]: Grace, who married Benjamin Scrivener; Elizabeth, who married Frances Hutchins, and Margaret who first married Nathan Smith, and second to Thomas Tench, who was governor of Maryland, 1702-1704.

Samuel surveyed land (800 acres) with Richard Wells in Maryland, July 20, 1669, "Ye Northward of Anne Arundel on ye ridge Manor known as Browsley Hall." Browsley Hall, which undoubtly was the same as "Breshey Hall," which Richard Wells had bequeathed to Samuel Lane, this same tract.

Breshy or Browsley Hall figured in the wills of Major Samuel Lane's sons and drandsons for the next hundred years or more. Major Samuel's will also names his two stepsons-in-lkaw, Nathan Smith and Frances Hutchins.

Major Samuel Lane had not been married to Margaret Burridge many years, apparently, as the sons, Samuel and Dutton Lane appear to have been very young (under 18) at his death in 1682. After Samuel's death, Margaret married her third husband, Job Evans.

In September 1681, Samuel Lane was head of the Militia opposing the Seneca Indians. He served as Major of Military forcesof the Colony of Maryland from 1674 to 1682. He was a Justice and a Commissioner. During his life he was referred to as CHirgeon, Doctor, doctor of Psyick, Commissoner of Anne-Arundel County, gentleman of the Quorum, and Major.

The following letter was written by Samuel Lane to Lord Baltimore as quoted in "Founders of Anne Arundel and Howard Counties, Maryland," by J.D. Warfield>

"The county of Anne Arrundel at this time is in great danger. Our men marched alo Monday night. The greatest part of the South River is most cut off. We want ammunition exceedingly, and have not here-with-all to furnish all our men. I hope you ldsp. will dispatch away Coll. Burgess with what ammunition may be thought convenient. I shall take all the care that lyethin me that I am wholly imployed in the country's service."

Major Samuel Lane died in 1682. Below is the will of Major Samuel Lane:

To son Samuel at 18 yrs of age and hrs part of Browsley Hall.

To son Dutton at 18 yrs of age and hrs. residue of Browsley Hall

To daughter Sarah, personality and above mentioned property in event of death of sons without issue.

To nephew Thomas Lane, in Ireland, property of afsd. in event of death of sd. child without issue.

To dau. Grace Burridge, personality.

Wife Margaret, exec. Overseers: Son-in-law Nathan Smith & Frances Hutchins.

Anne Arundel County

History - Seventeenth Century through the Present

http://www.aacounty.org/AboutAACo/history.cfm

 

The first European settlers arrived in present-day Anne Arundel County in 1649. Seventeen years earlier, King Charles I signed the Charter of Maryland granting the colony to Cecil Calvert, the second Lord Baltimore. Cecil Calvert and his father, George, who died two months prior to the charter, envisioned the colony as both an economic enterprise and a place where fellow Roman Catholic royalists could escape the religious strife that was increasingly prevalent in England. After the death of his father, Cecil Calvert was materially aided in his enterprise by his father-in-law, Thomas Arundell, first Baron Arundell of Wardour. A wealthy and influential Catholic, he was able to fulfill his dream of establishing a colony in North America through his son-in-law. In 1642 the English Civil War broke out between the Roman Catholic royalists supporting Charles I and the Protestant Parliamentarians. Cecil Calvert, whose patronage came exclusively from the monarchy, became understandably concerned about his ability to maintain control over his colony. To solidify his position, he took several steps that would prove pivotal in the history of the Maryland Colony and what would soon become Anne Arundel County.

In 1649, the year Charles I was beheaded, the Maryland General Assembly enacted "An Act Concerning Religion" which legislated some degree of religious protection to all Christians. He also replaced the Catholic Acting Governor Thomas Greene with the Virginia Protestant William Stone with the understanding that Stone would help populate his colony. Stone approached a group of nonconformist Virginia Puritans and offered them land and guaranteed freedoms in Maryland. In December of 1649 the first European settlement in Anne Arundel County was founded by these Puritans on the north shore of the Severn River opposite present-day Annapolis. It was called Providence.

Personal tragedy was also a part of 1649 for Cecil Calvert with the death of his beloved wife of twenty-one years, Anne Arundell. In 1650 the Maryland General Assembly created Anne Arundell County and named it after her. The County seal still in use is a slight variation on the Coat of Arms of the Lords' Baltimore. London Town was the original seat of County government.

From 1650 through 1695, a series of religious, regional and political struggles occurred in Maryland. In March of 1655, the Battle of the Severn was fought at the mouth of the Severn River and on land either at Horn Point (present-day Eastport) or across the river at Hidden Point.

Samuel was raised in the Bahamas, but returned to England to be educated in 1657. He came to Mayland 1663. In 1669 he was surveying land with Richard Welles, which eventually became his home. He served as Major in the Maryland Militia 1674- 1682 and was Commissioner of Anne Arundel County. He called his home, "Bromley Hall".
