BOUNDS FAMILY By Myron Bound <sgm@ktsnet.com> and the Bounds List
Here is a direct descendant chart of the Bounds to Hooper connection. In 1614 a John Bownd, age 20, sailed from London aboard the ship Hopewell bound for the Barbadoes. Around 1660-65 land records in Northumberland County VA reflect a John Bounds Jr. About 1670-72, a John Bounds, wife Ann Hiam(Hyam) and son William left Northumberland County VA and went to Wicomico County Md. This is where the Bounds history in America begins although I have references to other Boundses living in Delaware, Virginia, and or elsewhere in Maryland at about the same time. The records of the births, deaths, & marriages of the Bounds family may be found in the Green Hill Church, officially St. Bartholomew's, which still stands on the bank of the Nanticoke River.
In 1692, John Bound was among the ones appointed to "laying out and dividing ye county into parishes". John Bound was chosen as vestryman for Stepney Parish and the Stepney Parish Church was built in 1698 and was replaced in 1735 by the Green Hill Church.
