3051	Update as of 10/24/23 Every online tree I have found have Hannah’s parents listed incorrectly. A transfer of deeds by Abednego Leather’s children and heirs in 1821, make it clear that Hannah is actually the child of Abednego Edwards and Elizabeth Woodward. I have not yet found a birth certificate, but this is the only reasonable explanation of relationships. ----- Inconsistency:The Massachusetts, Town and Vital Records, 1620-1988 asserts that The parents of Martha G. Witherell who died in 1896 at the age of 86 were Joseph Stevens of Lee, NH and Hannah Langley of Nottingham, NH. Previous line of research: I have come to believe that Hannah's maiden name was actually Leathers and not Langley. The major fact this is based on is the Rockingham County deed Book 233 pp-48-52 in which Hannah is indicated as an heir to Abednego Leather's property. Additionally, her daugther Araiadna's birth record names her Hannah Leathers. We know that many 19th centure Leathers in NH changed their names because of the stigma it carried. Could this be true of Hannah? If so, it seems most likely that she was a daughter of Abednego Leathers (1770-?) and Sarah Sally Langley (1779-?), although in the deed, she is called out as an heir along with Polly, Abednego, Martha, Mehitable, and Charity as an heir. All of these individuals were children of Abednego Leathers (1742 - 1?) and Elizabeth Woodman (1745-1809). Due to birth dates, it seems impossible that she is of this generation, but why would she be the only one of the next generation named?	LEATHERS, Hannah (I172)

3072	Very little is known about Abraham and Abigail Margaret (Gifford) Temple. They were married before 1623 in England and had 5 children. They were in Salem in 1636 where he was granted ten acres, a relatively small grant. Robert, our ancestor, was the only one of their children born in America. Abraham dropped out of public records after 1639, so it is likely he had died. Abigail Margaret died sometime after 1651.	TEMPLE, Abraham (I2731)

3090	When Cecily was just six months old, both her father, Lord Harington, and grandfather, William Bonville, were executed following the disastrous Battle of Wakefield on 30 December 1460. The Bonvilles, having fought with the Yorkist contingent, were shown no mercy from the victorious troops of Margaret of Anjou (wife of King Henry VI of England), who headed the Lancastrian faction, and were thus swiftly decapitated on the battlefield. Cecily's maternal grandfather, Richard Neville, 5th Earl of Salisbury, was also executed after the battle which had been commanded on the Lancastrian side by Henry Beaufort, 3rd Duke of Somerset, while Richard Plantagenet, Duke of York, had led the Yorkists and was consequently slain in the fighting. Margaret of Anjou, Queen of England, was in Scotland at the time raising support for her cause and so had not been present at Wakefield.[5] In less than two months, the Yorkists suffered another major defeat at the Second Battle of St Albans on 17 February 1461, and the Lancastrian army's commander Margaret of Anjou, in an act of vengeance, personally ordered the execution of Cecily's great-grandfather, Baron Bonville, the next day.[6] These executions left Cecily Bonville as the wealthiest heiress in England,[7][8] having inherited numerous estates in the West Country,[9] as well as manors in Lancashire, Lincolnshire, Yorkshire, and Cumberland.[10] She succeeded to the title of suo jure 7th Baroness Harington of Aldingham on 30 December 1460,[11] and the title of suo jure 2nd Baroness Bonville on 18 February 1461.

3091	When Hedwig's husband died in 956, her son Hugh Capet was still underage. Although Hugh inherited his father's estates, he did not rule independently from the beginning.[2] Along with her brother, Archbishop Bruno, Hedwig acted as Hugh's regent and administrator of the Robertian estates until he came of age.	SAXONY, Hedwige of (I7298)
3092	When John was accused of entertaining Quakers his answer was "if they come to his house he should welcome them and he would not forbid them." Henry Jacques the constable said that he had brought sandal to the town, dishonored God, and hurt the neighbors.	EMERY, John Sr (I9660)
3093	While as treacherous and self-serving as any of his family before him he surpassed them in wickedness and cruelty.He had married a Hildeburg, daughter of a nobleman named Arnulf, but he had his wife strangled on her way to church, according to Orderic, because she loved God and would not support his wickedness.	TALVAS, William I (I7264)
3094	While King Louis the German was preoccupied with Imperial politics, Liudolf, relying on the rank as well as the allodial lands he had inherited from his ancestors, rose to a leading position among the Saxon nobles - made evident by the marriage of his daughter Liutgard with King Louis the Younger. He is buried in his proprietary monastery of Brunshausen.	LIUDOLF (I7303)

Roger Dudley: Roger Dudley (born between 1535 and 1545 -1586?/1590) was an English soldier. Dudley was born in London, England, but some[who?] say that he was baptised in Yardley Hastings, Northamptonshire. However Dudley's parentage has never been satisfactorily established. Genealogist and researcher Marshall Kirk in 1993 published the results of his exhaustive survey of the Dudley families, and came to the conclusion that he was the son of Henry Sutton Dudley. Roger may be the Roger Dudley who was matriculated as pensioner at Christ Church College, Cambridge, in 1566, but left without a degree. It is believed that he married, on June 8, 1575, at Lidlington, Bedfordshire, Susannah (Thorne), herself recorded as having been born on March 5, 1559/60 in Northamptonshire, and baptised at Yardley Hastings, the daughter of Thomas Thorne and Mary Purefoy. He is reported to have been a Captain in (the Earl of Leicester)'s militia, fighting with a commission from Elizabeth I, and under the banner of Henry of Navarre. He is thought to have died at the Battle of Ivry, France in 1590. Yet in 1586, four years earlier, the Reverend Cotton Mather of Boston wrote: "Thomas Dudley's father was Captain Roger Dudley, -- slain in the wars, when -- his son, and one only daughter were very young". The will of Thomas Dorne (Thorne) of Yardley Hastings, Gent., dated 29 Oct 1588, bequeathed "to the children of Susan Dudley, my Daughter, widow, to be equally divided". (S1,S11). Therefore, he was apparently dead by the time of the will of his father-in-law, which was written in 1588, which eliminates the time of the Battle of Ivry as a possibility for his death. It is most probable that he died at the Siege of Zutphen in 1586, having followed a relative, Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester, who was a principal figure in that battle. Marshall K. Kirk suggests that Roger made his home after his father's death with Peter Grey, a "Queen's servant", whose manor of Segenhoe was two miles from Lidlington, (Bedfordshire), where Roger was later married. Roger and Susannah Dudley raised at least five children, listed as: Thomas Dudley (second governor of Massachusetts) Mary Dudley Richard Dudley (b. 1583 – d. 20 Aug 1603) Dorothy Dudley. David Dudley.	DUDLEY, Captain Roger (I257)
3098	While the son of a king, he did not himself seek a royal wife. In c. 975-80 he married Ermentrude of Roucy whose maternal grandmother, Gerberga of Saxony was a sister of Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor and by this marriage alliance it caused a web of consanguinity between later kings of France, Germany, Burgundy and the Carolingians.	OTTO-WILLIAM (I7529)
3099	While the title of Hereditary Lay Abbot was a feudal position that was often exercised in name only, Crinán does seem to have acted as Abbot in charge of the monastery in his time. He was thus a man of high position in both clerical and secular society. The magnificent semi-ruined Dunkeld Cathedral, built in stages between 1260 and 1501, stands today on the grounds once occupied by the monastery. The Cathedral contains the only surviving remains of the previous monastic society: a course of red stone visible in the east choir wall that may have been re-used from an earlier building, and two stone ninth - or tenth-century cross-slabs in the Cathedral Museum. In 1045, Crínán of Dunkeld rose in rebellion against Macbeth in support of his grandson, Malcolm III's claim to the throne.[3] Crínán was killed in a battle at Dunkeld.	DUNKELD, Crínán of (I7309)
3100	Whilst travelling through Poitou, Duke William IX of Aquitaine met the "seductive" Dangereuse.[5] This led to her leaving her husband for Duke William, who was excommunicated by the church for "abducting her"; however, she appeared to have been a willing party in the matter. He installed her in the Maubergeonne tower of his castle in Poitiers, and, as related by William of Malmesbury, even painted a picture of her on his shield.[6][7] Upon returning to Poitiers from Toulouse, William's wife Philippa of Toulouse was enraged to discover a rival woman living in her palace. She appealed to her friends at the court of Aquitaine and to the Church;[8] however, no noble could assist her since William was their feudal overlord, and when the Papal legate Giraud complained to William and told him to return Dangereuse to her husband, William's only response to the bald legate was, "Curls will grow on your pate before I part with the Viscountess." Humiliated, in 1116, Philippa chose to retire to the Abbey of Fontevrault.	ISLE BOUCHARD, Dangereuse Maubergeonne (I2235)
