Notes

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Treneman-1

Some records list Hannah's maiden name as Blanch, Treneman or Sibsey. The confusion seems to arise from the fact that her mother had three husbands: Capt. John Sibsey, Capt. Benjamin Treneman and last Thomas Blanch. Sibsey died in 1652 and Hannah is either his posthumous daughter or the first born child between Benjamin Treneman and Elizabeth Lambert. As Benjamin and Elizabeth deeded land to George and Hannah Ivey, her father is probably Treneman and she was only fifteen when she married George. Her sons Alexander and George, petitioned David Morrow (who married Hannah) on July 15, 1691, after her death.

Hannah Ivey may have been the daughter of Elizabeth Sibsey Trenneman Blanch, for her will of 1680 left her entire estate to George Ivey’s children. If Hannah was her daughter, it was apparently by an unknown first husband. Elizabeth had married John Sibsey sometime in the late 1640s, but John Sibsey’s 1652 will makes no mention of a child Hannah, and administration records call Mary Conquest his “sole daughter”. After Sibsey’s death, Elizabeth remarried to Benjamin Trenneman and, widowed yet again, married Thomas Blanch by 1668. [See Thomas Ivey pages for references.] Elizabeth Sibsey Trenneman Blanch left a will dated 17 August 1680 and proved 15 June 1681, and witnessed by Hannah Ivey.12 The will named George Ivey her executor and left 140 acres which she had patented a few years earlier to “Thomas Ivy ye sone of George Ivy”. The rest of her estate was left to “ye children of…Geo. Ivy (viz.) Alexander, Samuel, George and Thomas Ivy brothers and to Eliz. Ivy their sister.” Note that the will does not explicitly identify Hannah Ivey as her daughter. Most Ivey researchers have assumed that Elizabeth Blanch’s will can only be explained if Hannah Ivey was her daughter. In fairness, we should consider the possibility of a relationship between Elizabeth Sibsey Trenneman Blanch and George Ivey himself. After all, she must have know him since his birth, and surely was aware of his “poor distressed” situation after his father’s death. She may even have taken him in after his father’s death.

George Ivey’s own will was dated 5 March 1685/6 and proved 17 January 1688/9.[13] It left his home plantation to his “beloved wife and executrix…Hannah Ivy…and after her deceis to my eldest son Alexander Ivey.” It provided for reversion if Alexander died “before he come of age without issue to the next brother to succeed and so… to the fourth brother or more if there shall be any.” Additional legacies were left to sons George, Samuel, Thomas, John, and Joseph, all of whom were under sixteen. Several daughters are implied, but only Elizabeth Ivy and “youngest daughter Hannah Ivy” are named. “Near neighbors” William and Thomas Langley were witnesses and overseers. The widow Hannah remarried to David Murray [or Murrah] before 16 February 1690/1 when he sued for a debt to George Ivey’s estate as the new husband of the widow.[14] Hannah herself died within the next few months, for on 15 July 1691 Alexander and George Ivey demanded that David Murray, who married their mother “now deceased“, deliver to them the personal estate of their father.[15] She may have died a few months earlier, because on 16 June 1691 George Ivey’s minor children were assigned guardians and ordered to live with various people until they reached the age of sixteen: the minor children mentioned in these records were John, Joseph, Hannah, Elizabeth, and Ann. Both Alexander and George were over 21 at the time, since they were among the appointed guardians. Samuel and Thomas are not mentioned, implying either that they were 14 and could choose their own guardians, or that they were dead.
