Notes
From http://genforum.genealogy.com/md/cecil/messages/452.html
According to the book "Ye Mauldins" by Ervin Mauldin, published 1993, Francis Mauldin who died 1734 was the son of Francis Mauldin and Eliza Mackall. I have not personally researched that far back. Mr. Mauldin includes a copy of the will. He also included a note: "Note: Francis and Thomas Richard are not mentioned in this will and both men were still living.
Origins
The second Francis Mauldin found to come to the American Colonies was one that arrived 13-14 October 1680 aboard the ship 'Virginia Factor' bound London to Maryland. This individual paid is passage. … It is unknown who he married. It is highly suspect that he had at least three children if not more. The highly suspect children was Francis Mauldin that became known as Major Francis Mauldin, Elizabeth Mauldin that married David Delemere February 27 1700/01, and Ann Mauldin b c 1692 that married William Amos.
