VI.   The  Rhode  Island  Family. 

Several  families  of  Underwood  trace  their  ancestral  lines  back 
to  Rhode  Island  and  its  vicinity.  These  are  probably  nearly 
all  descendants  of  Henry  Underwood  of  Newport,  R.  I.,  who 
appears  to  have  settled  there  about  1665  or  earlier.  Little  is 
known  of  him  or  his  ancestry.  He  is  believed  to  have  had 
brothers,  Charles  and  William.  According  to  the  family  tradi- 
tion he  came  from  Yorkshire,  England,  about  1636.  We  have 
been  able  to  trace  his  descendants  only  in  part. 

There  was  also  a  Thomas  Underwood  in  Rhode  Island  who  m. 
24  July,  1764,  Sarah  Lawless.  Whether  he  was  connected  with 
the  above  family  is  not  known.

THE   RHODE   ISLAND   FAMILY  423 

In  the  War  of  the  Revolution  there  were  three  men  by  the 
name  of  Underwood  from  Rhode  Island  who  served  in  Col. 
Elliott's  Regiment  in  1776.  They  were  Dutee  Underwood,  John 
Underwood  and  William  Undenvood.  It  seems  probable  that 
they  may  have  been  brothers  and  also  probable  that  they  were 
connected  in  some  way  with  the  preceding  Rhode  Island  family, 
but  we  are  unable  to  suggest  the  line  of  connection.  The  unusual 
name  of  the  first  mentioned  would  be  helpful  in  tracing  the 
connection  if  records  of  the  family  are  preserved.  It  seems 
possible  that  the  Duty  Underwood,  no.  784,  of  the  following 
family  is  the  same  man,  at  least  the  unusual  name  suggests 
that  they  belong  to  the  same  family  and,  therefore,  this  Canadian 
family  is  possibly  a  branch  of  the  Rhode  Island  Underwoods. 
For  this  reason  we  have  placed  this  Canadian  line  here. 


784.  Duty  Underwood  of  Canada,  (son  of  )  b. ;  m. 

Sarah  Burdict  and  had  children: 

i.  William,  b. . 

ii.  James,  b. . 

iii.  Joel,  b. . 

iv.  John,  b. . 

V.  Duty,  b. . 

vi.  Asa  B.,  b.  14  Jan.,  1802.     (See  no.  785.) 

vii.  George,  b.  16  Aug.,  1803.     (See  no.  786.) 

Duty  Underwood  lived  in  Canada  West  probably  near  Oxford 

where  most  of  his  children  were  born.     It  is  not  known  that  the 

order  of  the  children  is  as  given  above,  except  that  William 

was  the  eldest.     He  is  said  to  have  d.  when  Asa  was  quite  young. 

785.  Asa  B.  Underwood  of  Avon,  Mich.,  (son  of  Duty  784)  b. 
14  Jan.,  1802,  in  Oxford,  Canada  West;  m.  and  had  children:

Asa  B.  Underwood  was  a  farmer  and  lived  in  Oxford,  Canada, 
until  after  the  birth  of  his  eldest  sou,  Gustavus,  then  moved  to 
Avon,  Oakland  Co.,  Mich.,  where  he  d.  3  Feb.,  1846. 

786.  George  Nicholas  Underwood  of  Valparaiso,  Ind.,  (son  of 
Duty  784?*)  b.  16  Aug.,  1803,  in  Canada;  m.  7  May,  1827,!  Ann 
Kennedy  and  had  children : 

i.  Sarah  Elvira,  b.  28  Jan.,  1828. 

ii.  Thomas  Kennedy,  b.  10  March,  1830.     (See  no.  787.) 
iii.  George  N.,  b.  20  Jan.,  1830;  d.  in  the  army,  was  killed 
in  battle. 

iv.  Edith,  b.  31  May,  1834. 

V.  Aaron,  b.  3  May,  1836;  entered  the  United  States  Navy 
during  the  Civil  War  and  was  never  heard  from  after  the  war,  is 
supposed  to  have  been  killed  in  a  naval  battle. 

vi.  William  Henry,  b.  31  May,  1838;  enlisted  in  the  Civil 
War  and  d.  19  Dec,  1862,  in  hospital. 

vii.  Abigail,  b.  25  June,  1840;  d.  in  July,  1880. 

*  Tte  family  tradition  as  to  the  ancestors  of  George  N.  Underwood  is  as  follows: 
"Three  sons  of  the  Earl  of  Ellingwood  came  from  England  to  America,  changed 
their  names  to  Underwood  and  became  separated.  In  after  years  two  of  the 
brothers  learned  that  they  were  heirs  to  property  in  England  and  tried  to  establish 
their  claim,  but  being  unable  to  find  trace  of  the  third  brother  could  not  prove  their 
identity." 

We  have  identified  George  N.  Underwood  with  George  Underwood,  son  of  Duty, 
on  the  following  grounds:  (i)  proximity  of  residence  in  Canada;  (2)  date  of  birth 
as  compared  with  that  of  Asa.     Ed.

426  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA 

The  family  traditions  in  the  following  line  point  so  strongly 
to  a  Rhode  Island  origin  that  we  have  thought  best  to  place  this 
family  also  here  with  the  Rhode  Island  Underwoods.  We  have 
not  been  able  to  discover  the  connection  with  the  preceding 
families,  but  no  careful  search  has  been  made  of  Rhode  Island 
records.

and  probably  d.  there.

Samuel  790)  b.  22  March,   1825;  m.   12  Aug.,   1849,  Melicent 

*  According  to  Frank  Underwood,  no.  792,  his  name  is  thought  to  have  been 
Samuel  and  he  was  one  of  the  first  settlers  in  Rhode  Island  and  when  the  Revolution 
broke  out  he  went  to  Shediae,  N.  B.;  he  lived  to  be  loi  years  old. 

According  to  Mrs.  Duncan  his  name  was  John  and  he  lived  on  Long  Island  before 
the  American  Revolution.  When  the  war  began,  he  with  his  family  went  to  New 
Brunswick  and  settled  on  the  St.  Johns  river. 

t  The  name  of  the  first  wife  is  also  given  as  a  Miss  Darby.  It  is  not  certain 
that  the  family  is  rightly  arranged. 

X  According  to  Frank  Underwood  the  brothers  in  the  Civil  War  were  Samuel 
and  William.

VII.  The  Delaware  Family. 

The  Delaware  Family  of  Undenvood  is  a  very  large  family 
whose  representatives  are  widely  scattered  through  Delaware, 
Pennsylvania,  Ohio,  and  the  states  farther  west.     One  branch  of 
the  family  passed  through  North  CaroHna  and  from  there  also 
to  the  west.     The  family  is  descended  from  a  Samuel  Underwood 
who  was  living  in  New  Castle  county,  Del.,  at  the  close  of  the 
seventeenth  century.     As  to  his  origin  and  antecedents  nothing 
is  positively  known.     From  incidental  references  to  him  in  deeds 
it  seems  probable  that  he  was  originally  from  Maryland.     It  was 
thought  by  Dr.  Underwood  that  he  was  probably  descended  from 
a  Thomas  Underwood  who  is  mentioned  in  certain  Maryland 
records  in  1658  as  "a  poor  man  with  several  small  children" 
whose  names  are  unfortunately  not  recorded.     The  editor  has 
not  been  able  to  locate  the  original  of  this  reference  and  it  seems 
possible  that  this  Thomas  may  have  been  the  same  as  Thomas, 
no.  968,  founder  of  the  Anne  Arundel  County  Family.     If  so  it 
seems  improbable  that  he  was  ancestor  of  Samuel  as  will  be 
seen  from  the  discussion  under  that  family,  page  511.     While  we 
can  find  little  information  concerning  the  ancestry  of  Samuel, 
there  is  opportunity  for  abundance  of  material  respecting  his 
posterity.     He  himself  had  five  sons  who  lived  to  have  families 
and  at  least  two  of  these  had  six  and  seven  sons  each.     As  a 
consequence,  by  the  time  of  the  Revolution,  Underwoods  of  this 
family  were  very  numerous  in  Tvlaryland  and  Pennsylvania.     One 
of  the  sons  of  Samuel  was  Alexander  Underw^ood,  "the  Quaker

the  Society  of  Friends.     His  descendants  are  the  best  known  and 
have  been  most  successfully  traced.     They  are  very  numerous 
as  Alexander  Underwood  had  seven  sons.     This  branch  of  the

Samuel  Underwood,  on  the  18  Feb.,  1733,  gives  deed  with 
his  brothers  Joseph  and  Benjamin  for  200  acres  of  land  in  which 
he  is  mentioned  as  of  Christiana  Hundred,  New  Castle  Co.,  Pa. 
(Del.),  and  is  definitely  described  as  the  eldest  son  of  Samuel,  no. 
794,  and  names  his  wife,  Mary.  He  appears  to  have  removed  to 
the  vicinity  of  Gunpowder,  Md.,  for  a  Samuel  Underwood 
planned  to  "visit  his  relatives  and  former  acquaintanced  in  the 
province  of  Pennsylvania"  about  1745  and  to  that  end  a  letter 
of  commendation  was  given  him  by  the  Gunpowder  meeting  23 
Aug.,  1745,  signed  by  Aquilla  Carr  and  others.     He  was,  how-

ever,  soon  after  taken  sick  and  made  his  will  27  Feb.,  1745/6, 
which  was  witnessed  by  Aquilla  Carr.  The  association  of  Aquilla 
Carr  with  both  documents  seems  to  indicate  that  it  was  the 
same  Samuel  Underwood  in  each  case,  and  the  reference  to 
relatives  in  the  letter  points  to  his  probably  being  the  brother  of 
Alexander  Underwood  of  Warrington,  Pa.  He  d.  in  1746  as  his 
will  was  probated  7  Aug.,  1746. 

The  Will  of  Samuel  Underwood.

ix.  Elizabeth,  b. 
X.  Joseph,  b.  — 


The  above  list  of  children  is  undoubtedly  not  in  the  order  of 
birth.  Very  little  is  known  of  the  family  except  what  can  be 
gathered  from  the  probate  records  of  New  Castle  county,  Del., 
where  the  will  of  Benjamin  is  on  file  dated  24  Nov.,  1759.  In 
this  instrument  he  mentions  all  the  above  children  except 
Joseph.  The  latter  we  have  taken  from  the  will  of  a  Sarah 
Underwood  dated  6  March,  1785,  in  which  she  mentions  her 
children  as  follows:  Solomon,  Nathan,  Joseph,  Samuel,  and 
Elizabeth.  From  the  similarities  in  the  names  of  the  children 
it  seems  probable  that  this  Sarah  Underwood  was  the  widow  of 
Benjamin.  But  it  is  difficult  to  understand  why  the  son  Joseph 
should  have  been  omitted  from  the  father's  will  unless  he  was 
born  after  the  making  of  that  instrument.  There  is  also  the 
record  of  the  settlement  of  the  estate  of  one  Sarah  Underwood, 
23  July.  1760.  This  may  be  the  widow  of  Benjamin,  but  we 
29 


434  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA 

think  it  improbable  as  there  is  no  mention  of  relatives.  Ben- 
jamin must  have  d.  within  a  few  days  of  the  making  of  his  will 
as  it  was  probated  in  Dec.  1759.  He  appears  to  have  joined  the 
Welsh  Tract  Baptist  church  as  early  as  December,  1728,  on 
confession  of  faith  and  was  still  a  member  when  he  died. 

799.  John  Underwood  of  New  Castle  county,  Del.,  (son  of 

Benjamin  798)  b. ;  m.  Margaret and  had  the  following 

children : 

i.  John,  b. ;  m.  Jane ;  deeded  land  in  Pencader  in 

1794. 

ii,  Joseph,  b. .     (See  no.  800.) 

iii.  Jean,  b. ;  m.  Alexander  Jennson. 

iv.  Sarah,  b. . 

V.  Mary,  b. . 


vi.  Margaret,  b. . 

All  that  is  known  of  this  man  and  his  family  is  what  can  be 
gathered  from  his  will  and  the  settlement  of  his  estate  which  is 
on  record  in  Wilmington,  Del.  Besides  his  children  he  mentions 
his  brother,  Solomon,  and  we  therefore  believe  him  to  have  been 
the  son  of  Benjamin.  His  will  is  dated  9  Jan.,  1785,  and  was  pro- 
bated 4  Feb.,  1785. 

800.  Joseph  Underwood  of  New  Castle  county,  Del.,  (son  of 

John  799)  b. ;  m.  Alice  Ginn,  a  dau.  of  Edward  Ginn,*  and 

had  children:

1845. 

v.  Joseph  Ginn,  b.  14  Feb.,  1810.     (See  no.  801.) 

*  The  Ginns  are  said  to  have  come  from  Wales  and  Mrs.  Annie  Underwood  Cann, 
daughter  of  Joseph  Underwood,  no.  8oi,  has  in  her  possession  a  table  which  was 
brought  from  the  old  country  by  the  immigrant  ancestor.

Alexander  Underwood  was  a  minister  of  the  Society  of  Friends 
for  twenty-two  years  before  his  death,  and  in  that  capacity 
twice  made  the  long  journey  into  North  Carolina.  He  settled  in 
London  Grove,  Chester  Co.,  Pa.,  and  was  appointed  an  Elder  31 
Nov.,  1 735/6 ;  rem.  in  1 743  to  York  county,  and  settled  in  Warring-

"Towards  the  latter  part  of  his  time,  his  bodily  strength  much 
failed,  yet  he  visited  some  of  the  neighboring  meetings  and 
families  of  friends,  to  the  comfort  of  the  faithful,  his  ministry 
continued  to  be  sound  and  lively. 

"In  his  last  sickness  he  seemed  much  resigned,  and  at  one  time 
said  *He  had  the  company  of  his  good  master  to  comfort  him  in 
his  affliction.'  At  another  said  'That  he  could  say  with  the 
Psalmist,  that  the  good  hand  that  was  with  him  in  his  younger 
years  had  not  forsook  him  now  in  his  old  age.'  And  divers  times 
signified  '  He  still  felt  the  comforter  with  him ' ;  saying,  '  His  day's 
work  was  done.'  A  little  before  his  departure  he  sang  praises 
and  hallelujahs,  to  his  great  Lord  and  master.

"Then  prayed  for  the  little  handful;  and  taking  leave  of  all 
present,  continued  in  a  sweet  frame  of  mind,  singing  praises 
untill  he  could  not  be  understood,  and  quietly  departed  this  life, 
the  31st  of  the  tenth  month,  1767,  and  was  inter'd  the  2nd  of  the

allege  that  he  rem.  from  Chatham  Co.,  N.  C,  to  Highland  Co., 
Ohio,  in  1805,  but  others  claim  that  this  tradition  has  reference 
to  the  maternal  side  of  the  house  where  the  tradition  is  held. 
We  know  nothing  further  of  this  man  or  any  of  his  sons  except 
the  first  named.  He  must  have  been  a  man  of  over  seventy-five 
in  1805  and  rather  unlikely  to  take  such  a  long  journey.  Ann

t  It  was  from  the  correspondence  of  James  Hadley  with  his  cousin  Daniel

have  concerning  this  branch  of  the  Underwood  family.  James  Hadley  had  the 
following  children:  (i)  Daniel  Hadley,  a  dry  goods  merchant  who  afterwards  kept

the  second  marriage. 

James  Underwood  was  a  large  and  powerful  man,  weighing 

James  Hadley  was  a  Friend  and  his  quaint  letters  abound  with  "  thee  "  and 
"  thy."  He  was  evidently  in  comfortable  circumstances  and  it  appears  from  his 
correspondence  that  he  had  given  all  of  his  nine  children  a  higher  education.  He 
spent  some  five  years  or  more  traveling  over  North  Carolina  and  neighboring 
states  and  was  well  informed. 

*  It  is  not  certain  that  this  man  belongs  here.  He  is  not  mentioned  by  Daniel 
Unden\-ood,  no.  8i6,  in  giving  the  list  of  his  grandfather's  children  and  the  only 
kxiowledge  we  have  of  him  is  a  single  line  in  a  letter  of  James  Hadley  to  Daniel  in 
which  he  says  "  Uncle  Green  finished  his  earthly  course  somewhere  in  Missouri." 

t  This  name  is  given  in  the  traditional  list  by  Mrs.  Ockerman  but  as  she  omits 
Daniel  it  is  possible  that  the  *vio  names  have  become  confused.

280  lbs.  in  his  prime.  It  is  said  of  him  that  he  was  as  strong  as 
two  or  three  ordinary  men,  and  that  he  carried  nine  bushels  of 
wlicat  from  a  wagon  upstairs  into  a  mill.  He  was  a  farmer  and 
lived  many  years  in  Chatham  Co.,  N.  C.  The  old  homestead,  a 
large  colonial  mansion,  is  said  to  be  still  standing  about  five 
miles  southwest  of  Silver  City,  Chatham  Co.,  N.  C. 

James  Underwood  made  several  trips  to  Ohio  when  the  whole 
country  northwest  of  the  Ohio  river  was  a  vast  wilderness. 
According  to  one  tradition  he  made  his  first  trip  in  1798,  a  second 
in  1801,  and  finally  rem.  to  Ohio  in  1815.  According  to  Mrs. 
Ockerman  (great-granddaughter  of  James  Underwood)  he  visited 
his  children  in  1809  in  Highland  Co.,  Ohio,  where  they  had 
settled  a  few  years  earlier,  and  in  1816  with  his  wife,  Ruth,  rem. 
to  Auburn,  in  that  county,  and  settled  there.  It  is  related  of  him 
that  he  once  killed  a  big  buck  deer  with  a  stone.  Having  lost  his 
gun,  when  the  deer  attacked  him  he  jumped  on  its  back  and  killed 
it  with  a  stone  which  he  picked  up  in  the  ravine  where  the  scufHe 
occurred. 

He  was  a  soldier  of  the  Revolution  serving  in  the  North 
Carolina  Continental  Line.  He  was  also  in  the  militia  service 
and  engaged  in  the  campaign  against  the  Chicamauga  Indians  in 
1776.  In  1784  a  special  law  was  passed  by  the  legislature  of 
North  Carolina  releasing  James  Underwood  from  a  bond  of  £500 
for  the  appearance  of  Daniel  Campbell  before  the  Superior  Court 
of  Hillsborough  District  under  treasonable  charges,  on  the  ground 
that  execution  of  the  judgment  would  reduce  him  and  family  to 
very  great  distress,  the  said  Campbell  having  failed  to  appear. 

James  Underwood  d.  24  May,  1834,  and  is  buried  at  Clear- 
creek,  Highland  Co.,  Ohio.  Ruth  Winter  Undenv-ood  d.  14  May,

of  him  that  at  a  country  store,  where  other  men  were  trying  to

Daniel  Underwood  like  his  father  and  grandfather  before  him 
was  a  large  man  standing  6  ft.  in  his  stocking  feet.  He  spent  his 
young  manhood  in  North  Carolina,  then  rem.  to  Ohio,  and  after- 
wards to  Park  county,  Ind.,  and  then  to  Andrew  county,  Mo., 
about  1845  or  1846.  During  the  border  ruffian  wars  Mr.  Under- 
wood was  an  ardent  and  outspoken  northern  sympathizer,  and 
was  picked  out  for  assassination.  A  masked  mob  surrounded  his 
store  one  night  intending  to  tar  and  feather  him  and  afterwards 
hang  him.  He  is  supposed  to  have  owed  his  life  to  the  fact  that 
both  he  and  Mr.  Henry  Blount,  a  fellow  merchant  of  the  town, 
were  masons.  Mr.  Blount,  a  sympathizer  with  the  Southern 
cause,  succeeded  in  quelling  the  mob,  which,  after  burning  the 
store  and  confiscating  his  property,  gave  him  only  a  few  hours  in 
which  to  leave  the  state  and  he  fled  to  Bedford,  Iowa.  This  was 
in  1856.  After  his  removal  to  Iowa  he  held  several  public  offices 
as  county  recorder,  county  treasurer,  etc.  He  remained  in 
Bedford,  Iowa,  until  1881  when  he  was  appointed  U.  S.  ganger 
for  the  Internal  Revenue  District  which  included  Des  Moines.

develop.  After  spending  several  years  at  the  Chicago  College 
of  Music,  he  and  his  mother  went  to  Leipzig,  Germany,  where  he

plant  of  his  own  in  Cartwright,  Wis.,  which  was  a  failure.  He

a  large  paving  brick  plant  at  Springfield,  Illinois,  where  he 
remained  for  twelve  years.  He  then  returned  to  his  old  business 
of  building  brick  plants  for  a  few  years,  but  in  1909  was  engaged 
by  the  Columbus  and  Hocking  Coal  and  Iron  Co.  to  take  charge 
of  their  brick  department,  where  he  is  now  (191 1)  the  manager  of 
the  largest  face  brick  plant  in  the  world  and  receiving  the  largest

Charles  Under%vood  in  boyhood  worked  in  his  father's  mill, 
but  tired  of  milling,  he  went  into  the  freight  hauling  business. 
At  that  time  there  were  no  railroads  and  freight  w^as  transported 
overland  by  horses  and  wagons.  At  one  time  he  had  two  teams 
on  the  road  and  hauled  freight  between  various  points.  During 
the  War  of  1812  he  and  his  team  were  pressed  into  the  government 
service  at  Pittsburgh,  Pa.,  and  he  was  required  to  convey  a  load 
of  gunpowder  to  Baltimore,  Md.  The  hazardous  trip  was  made 
without  accident,  and  later  in  the  war  he  hauled  a  load  of  silver 
from  Philadelphia  to  New  York  city  accompanied  only  by  one  of 
the  clerks  of  the  Philadelphia  bank.  No  one  knew  the  character 
of  his  load  and  he  made  the  trip  in  safety.  He  was  a  man  of 
strict  integrity  and  of  the  best  moral  habits.  He  finally  bought 
a  farm  in  Rossville,  York  Co.,  Pa.,  and  for  a  number  of  years

502  .  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN    AMERICA 

John  Undenvood  was  a  carpenter  and  lived  in  Parkersville, 
Pa.,  all  his  life.  Little  is  known  of  him  or  his  ancestry  but  it  is 
probable  that  he  belongs  in  the  Delaware  family.  He  d.  in  Feb., 
1883.     His  wife,  Sallie  Slack  Underwood,  d.  in  May,  1876.

1871  to  Fairfax  county,  Va.,  near  Mt.  Vernon,  and  in  1877  settled 
near  Jennersville,  Chester  Co.,  Pa. 

Benjamin  Undenvood  d.  near  Rochester,  N.  Y.,  14  May,  1839. 
Sarah  Morey  Underwood  m.  (2)  Elisha  Hunt.  He  d.  and  she 
was  living  with  her  daughter  near  Jennersville,  Pa.,  in  1887. 
The  family  is  doubtless  connected  with  the  Delaware  family. 


957.  Henry  H.  Underwood  of  Lancaster  City,  Pa.,  (son  of 

)  b. ;  m.  Maria  C. and  had  children:

ii.  Mary  E.,  b. ;  m.  Dana  H.  Graham. 

iii.  Charles  N.,  b. ;  lived  in  Lancaster  in  1903. 

Henry  H.  Underwood  lived  in  Lancaster  1883  until  his  death 
25  Aug.,  1901.  His  widow  was  living  in  Dayton,  Ohio,  in  1903. 
It  seems  probable  that  he  is  of  the  Delaware  family. 


958.  Sidney  Underwood  of  Latimore,  Adams  Co.,  Pa.,  (son  of 

— )  b. ;  m.  and  had  children:

1875- 

Sidney  Underwood  lived  in  Latimore  at  least  from  1867  to  his 
death  in  1 876.  It  seems  probable  that  he  belongs  to  the  Delaware 
family,  but  no  suggestion  of  his  connection  could  be  obtained. 


959.  John  Underwood  "  near  Brick  Meeting  House,"  Cecil 

Co.,  Md.,  (son  of  )  b.  ;  m.  Margaret  and  had

504  THE   UNDERWOOD  FAMILY   IN  AMERICA 

iv.  Washington,  b. ;  "youngest  son." 

John  Underwood  made  his  will  9  Nov.,  1871,  and  it  was  pro- 
bated 6  July,  1878.  He  undoubtedly  belongs  in  the  Delaware 
family  but  we  cannot  place  him. 


960.  William  Underwood  of  West  Chester,  Pa.,  (son  of ) 

. ;  m.  Eliza  H. and  had  children: 

i.  Harry  P.,  b. .

iii.  Sallie  R.,  b. ;  m. Kissinger. 

iv.  Phebe  S.,  b. . 


Nothing  further  could  be  learned  of  William  Underwood  but  he 
doubtless  belongs  in  the  Delaware  family. 


961.  William  Underwood  of  Washington,  Pa.,  (son  of  ) 

b. ;  m.  and  had  at  least  two  sons: 

i.  Owen    C,    b.   ;  at   one   time   district   attorney   of 

Washington  county.  Pa. 

ii.  Homer,  b. ;  was  an  instructor  in  some  college  in  the 

east.     Probably  was  graduated  from  Yale  in  1901. 

William  Underwood  was  believed  to  be  living  in  Washington, 
Pa.,  in  1907,  but  letters  addressed  to  him  brought  no  reply.  It  is 
probable  that  the  family  is  in  some  way  connected  with  the 
Delaware  family. 

Notes  on  the  Delaware  Family. 
The  following  data  gathered  from  various  records  doubtless 
pertain  to  members  of  the  Delaware  family  but  the  persons  could 
not  be  positively  determined.  They  are  entered  here  as  the 
record  may  be  of  service  to  some  historian  of  the  family.  See 
also  notes  on  the  Maryland  families.

and  Margaret  Utz,  13  July,  1895.  It  seems  probable  that  Eli  is  the  son  of  Reuben 
above. 

George  Underwood  was  a  minor  under  fourteen  years  of  age  in  1816,  a  son  of 
Charles  Underwood,  a  lunatic  of  York  county.  Pa. 

Joseph  Underwood  of  Carroll  township,  York  Co.,  d.  intestate  about  1842. 

Eliza  Underwood  of  Carroll  township,  York  Co.,  Pa.,  was  administrator  in  the 
estate  of  Joel  G.  Underwood  who  d.  about  1863. 

William  Underwood  of  Baltimore  in  1790  had  a  family  perhaps  of  himself,  wife, 
son  over  sixteen,  and  three  daughters. 

Joseph  Underwood  of  Baltimore  in  1790  had  a  family  probably  of  himself,  wife, 
two  daughters,  and  a  son  under  sixteen.  ^ 

Joseph  Underwood  of  Baltimore  county  in  1790  had  a  family  of  himself,  wife, 
two  sons  under  sixteen,  and  two  daughters. 

John  Underwood  of  Baltimore  county  asked  for  letters  of  administration  in  the 
estate  of  Henry  Wollen  of  said  county,  dec'd,  he  having  married  Wollen's  widow, 
dated  4  March,  1695. 

The  following  items  pertain  to  what  appears  to  be  a  closely 
related  group  of  Underwoods  in  Chester  county,  Pa.,  and  we 


508  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA 

suspect  that  they  may  in  part  at  least  represent  the  family  and 
descendants  of  Joseph  Under^vood  no.  796,  but  we  can  find  no 
definite  proof  of  their  connection. 

Capt.  John  Underwood,  James  Undenvood,  William  Underwood.  Joseph  Under- 
wood, Sr..  Joseph  Underwood,  Jr.,  and  Samuel  Underwood,  were  living  in  East 
Bradford,  Chester  Co.,  Pa.,  during  the  period  of  the  Revolution.  All  except 
possibly  Samuel  served  in  the  local  militia.  One  of  the  Josephs  was  a  shoemaker, 
the  others  appear  to  have  been  farmers.  I  n  1 790  John  is  reported  as  having  a  1  am  il  y 
of  two  boys  under  16  years  and  two  girls.  It  is  probable  that  these  form  a  family 
group  but  we  can  find  no  clue  to  their  connection. 

James  Underwood,  a  farmer,  and  John  Underwood,  a  wheelwright,  were  living 
in  Goshen,  Chester  Co.,  Pa.,  during  the  Revolution.  The  latter  at  least  was  there 
as  early  as  1765.  Both  served  in  the  militia.  James  is  described  as  unfit  for  duty 
in  1782  and  no  mention  is  made  of  him  after  that  date.  We  find  no  clue  to  their 
family  connection. 

James  Underwood,  Joseph  Underwood,  and  John  Underwood  were  taxed  in 
Birmingham,  Chester  Co.,  Pa.,  as  early  as  1 767-1 769.  The  two  latter  were 
tailors.     No  further  clue  could  be  obtained  to  these. 

VIII.  The  Maryland  Families. 
The  records  of  Maryland  show  that  this  province  was  the 
objective  goal  of  several  immigrants  by  the  name  of  Underwood 
prior  to  1700.  Under  the  proprietorship  of  Lord  Baltimore  it 
was  the  plan  to  encourage  immigration  by  granting  to  every 
immigrant  a  warrant  for  fifty  acres  of  unappropriated  land 
wherever  the  immigrant  chose  to  locate.  Such  warrants  were 
also  issued  to  any  person  who  was  the  means  of  bringing  an 
additional  member  to  the  colony.  It  thus  happened  that  ship 
captains  often  transported  passengers  to  the  colony  receiving  for 
each  person  thus  brought  in  a  warrant  for  fifty  acres  of  land. 
These  warrants  were  then  often  assigned  to  other  parties,  and 
these  parties  having  obtained  a  number  of  such  warrants  would 
then  have  large  tracts  sur\'eyed  off  according  to  the  total  of 
their  warrants  and  would  finally  obtain  from  the  Lord  Proprietary 
a  patent  or  grant  for  the  tract  based  on  the  above  warrants.  The 
final  patent  or  proprietor's  grant  could  not  be  obtained  without 
complete  proof  of  the  applicant's  title  which  included :  first,  proof 


THE  MARYLAND   FAMILIES  509 

of  claim  to  a  warrant  for  each  fifty  acres  based  on  the  transporta- 
tion of  an  actual  immigrant;  second,  the  issuing  of  the  warrant 
to  the  claimant;  third,  the  record  of  all  assignments  or  transfers 
of  the  warrant;  and  fourth,  the  certificate  of  location  and  survey 
of  the  tract  desired.  The  records  of  these  transactions  are  un- 
usually full  and  probably  no  colony  shows  a  more  complete  list 
of  its  early  immigrants  than  does  Maryland. 

Many  of  the  early  immigrants  were  unmarried  females  of 
whom  as  matter  of  interest  we  may  mention  Katherine  Under- 
wood who  was  transported  to  the  colony  at  some  time  prior  to 
Oct.,  1666,  the  transporter  receiving  his  pay  in  a  land  warrant 
for  fifty  acres.  Nothing  further  is  known  of  her.  Rachel 
Underwood  was  brought  over  in  the  ship  Constant  Friendship  by 
Capt.  Benjamin  Cooper  in  May,  1671.  Nothing  further  is 
known  of  her. 

The  following  male  representatives  of  the  family  arrived  at  an 
early  date  and  some  of  them  may  have  been  the  founders  of  an 
American  line  of  Underwood,  but  little  information  is  to  be 
obtained  of  them. 

962.  Peter  Underwood  came  over  apparently  about  1654  or  a 
little  earlier,  at  which  time  he  was  18  years  old.  He  seems  to 
have  wandered  about  for  a  time  as  a  laborer  and  met  with  several 
adventures,  but  finally  he  married  and  settled  in  Dorchester 
county  where  he  obtained,  17  Dec,  1673,  a  warrant  for  fifty 
acres  of  land  "for  his  time  of  service  performed  in  this  province." 
Under  this  warrant  in  June,  1674,  he  obtained  a  certificate  of 
survey  of  nine  acres  called  "Underwood's  Chance"  and  a  warrant 
for  the  remaining  forty-one  acres  which  was  again  renewed  21 
Sept.,  1675.  In  1674  by  special  act  of  the  assembly  it  was 
ordered  that  there  should  be  no  "ordinaries,"  that  is,  inns  or 
taverns,  in  any  place  of  the  province  but  where  the  provincial  and 
county  courts  are  kept  with  the  exception  of  four  especially 
designated  places  one  of  which  was  Peter  Undenvood's  in  Dor- 
chester county.  Soon  after  this  and  before  April,  1676,  he  died 
leaving  besides  his  widow  only  two  daughters,  the  eldest,  Eliza- 


510  THE   UNDERWOOD  FAMILY  IN   AMERICA 

beth,  and  the  youngest,  Judith.  Before  i8  Feb.,  1677,  his 
widow  had  married  Joseph  James.  As  Peter  Underwood  left  no 
male  issue  he  does  not  further  interest  us  and  nothing  more  is 
known  of  his  family. 

963.  Rowland  Underwood  was  transported  into  the  colony  by 
Francis  Billingsley  in  1656.  No  further  trace  has  been  found  of 
this  man. 

964.  John  Underwood  was  brought  over  with  four  other  im- 
migrants at  some  time  prior  to  29  Jan.,  1669,  as  on  that  date 
Henry  Trip  of  Dorchester  county  proved  right  to  250  acres  by 
virtue  of  the  transportation  of  these  five  persons. 

965.  Edward  Underwood  came  over  at  some  time  prior  to 
15  March,  1678/9,  but  no  further  trace  of  him  was  found. 

966.  Thomas  Underwood  came  in  the  ship  Dover  of  London 
under  Capt.  John  Harris,  21  March,  1678.  Nothing  further  has 
been  found  of  him. 

967.  William  Underwood  was  transported  by  Robert  Lock- 
wood  who  gave  proof  13  June,  1679.  No  further  notice  of  this 
man  is  found. 

Two  other  early  immigrants  to  Maryland  by  the  name  of 
Underwood  gave  rise  to  families  which  have  been  traced  through 
several  generations  and  possibly  may  be  traced  to  living  descend- 
ants. It  seems  best,  therefore,  to  treat  these  as  distinct  families 
and  they  are  here  called  the  "Anne  Arundell  County  Family" 
founded  by  Thomas  Underwood  in  1650,  and  the  "St.  Mary's 
County  Family"  founded  by  Anthony  Under\vood  in  167S. 
Neither  of  these  has  been  actually  traced  to  living  descendants, 
but  the  latter  seems  to  have  been  the  progenitor  of  a  number  of 
Underv/oods  in  Prince  George's  county  who  have  been  traced  to 
living  descendants  and  we  have  included  all  of  these  under  the 
one  family  although  there  are  gaps  in  the  continuity  of  the  lines 
which  we  have  not  been  able  to  supply. 


THE   MARYLAND   FAMILIES — ANNE   ARUNDELL   COUNTY      5II 

Anne  Ai'undell  County  (Md.)  Family 
This  family  was  founded  by  Thomas  Underwood  and  his  wife 
Elizabeth  who  came  over  in  1650  and  settled  in  Anne  Arundell 
county.  We  have  but  meager  information  in  a  single  line  of  his 
descendants  and  they  have  not  been  traced  positively  to  any 
living  descendants.  The  succession  of  Samuel  Underwoods  nos. 
969  to  971  appears  to  be  remarkably  parallel  to  nos.  794  to  son 
of  795  of  the  Delaware  Family,  not  only  having  the  same  names 
but  living  as  corresponding  contemporaries  in  the  same  region 
and  engaged  in  similar  transactions.  It  strongly  suggests  that 
they  are  in  reality  the  same  parties.  The  one  line  (nos.  969  to 
971)  is  clearly  associated  with  the  ownership  and  title  to  a  well 
defined  tract  of  land  on  the  Severn  River,  the  other  line  (nos. 
794  to  795)  would  appear  to  be  necessarily  distinct,  from  the  fact 
that  Samuel  Underwood  no.  794  makes  absolutely  no  reference 
to  this  tract  in  his  will,  and  according  to  the  terms  of  that  instru- 
ment if  he  had  had  any  title  in  the  Severn  River  land  it  would 
have  descended  to  his  sons  Joseph  and  Benjamin  and  not  to 
Samuel.  It  has  seemed  necessary,  therefore,  to  treat  the  two 
lines  as  distinct,  but  it  has  been  difficult  in  some  instances  to  be 
sure  which  Samuel  a  particular  item  may  have  pertained  to  and 
it  is  possible  that  we  have  made  some  errors. 
968.  Thomas  Underwood  of  Anne  Arundell  county,  Md.,  (son 

of )  b. ;  m.  Elizabeth and  had  children: 

i.  Elizabeth,  b. . 

ii.  Samuel,  b. .     (See  no.  969.) 

Thomas  Underwood  with  his  wife  Elizabeth,  according  to  his 
own  statement,  came  over  in  1650,  and  was,  therefore,  the  first 
Underwood,  so  far  as  the  records  show,  to  settle  in  the  Province 
of  Maryland.  He  may  have  been  the  Thomas  Underwood  who, 
according  to  Dr.  Underwood's  notes,  "is  mentioned  in  certain 
Maryland  records  in  1658  as  'a  poor  man  with  several  small 
children'  whose  names  are  unfortunately  not  recorded."  He 
also  appears  to  have  been  the  Thomas  Underwood  who  on  6  Aug., 


512  THE   UNDERWOOD    FAMILY   IN   AMERICA 

1664,  received  of  Cecilius  Lord  Baltimore  a  patent  or  grant  to 
fifty  acres  of  land  known  as  "Middle  Neck"  lying  on  the  north 
side  of  the  Severn  River  near  a  branch  known  as  Ferry  Creek 
formerly  called  Burley's  Creek,  his  claim  to  this  grant  being 
based  on  an  assignment  from  John  Mearcs,  the  assignee  of 
Richard  Preston,  out  of  a  warrant  of  700  acres.  He  further 
received  a  grant  from  Lord  Baltimore  of  100  acres  called  the 
"Landing"  in  the  same  location,  dated  8  Aug.,  1664.  This  prop- 
erty would  seem  to  have  constituted  his  homestead  and  passed 
down  through  his  family  for  several  generations  as  clearly  appears 
from  later  deeds.  Thomas  Underwood  died  probably  soon  after 
this  grant  was  obtained,  at  least,  he  died  before  14  Aug.,  1683,  at 
which  time  his  son  Samuel  sold  the  tract  known  as  "Middle 
Neck"  and  it  is  stated  that  the  father  is  dead.  It  is  probable 
that  his  children  were  left  orphans,  for  the  will  of  Thomas  Meeres 
of  Severn,  Anne  Arundell  Co.,  in  1674,  mentions  "my  orphant 
servant,"  Elizabeth  Underwood,  to  whom  he  wills  a  mare  colt; 
and  the  will  of  his  son,  John  Meeres,  made  17  April,  1675,  makes  a 
similar  bequest  to  Samuel  Underwood.  That  these  were  children 
of  Thomas  seems  confirmed  by  the  association  with  John  Meeres 
through  whom  Thomas  obtained  his  claim  to  Middle  Neck  as 
described  above.  The  wills  of  both  Thomas  and  John  Meeres 
make  bequests  to  poor  Friends  and  it  seems  likely  that  Thomas 
Underwood  and  his  family  were  Quakers. 

969.  Samuel  Underwood  of  Severn,  Anne  Arundell  Co..  Md., 

(son  of  Thomas  968)  b. ;  m.  and  had  children: 

i.  Samuel,  b. .     (See  no.  970.) 

Samuel  Undenvood  was  apparently  left  an  orphan  by  the 
death  of  his  father  and  presumably  went  to  live  with  John  Meeres 
as  has  been  shown  in  our  discussion  of  Thomas  above.  On  5  Oct., 
1683,  he  received  a  grant  of  223^  acres  from  Lord  Baltimore  based 
on  an  assignment  by  Henry  Hanslap  of  223/^  acres  out  of  a 
warrant  for  1250  acres  held  by  said  Hanslap.  This  grant  was 
laid  out  on  the  north  side  of  the  Severn  and  near  the  tracts 
granted  to  his  father,  Thomas,  known  as  "Middle  Neck"  and 


THE   MARYLAND   FAMILIES — ST.    MARYS   COUNTY  513 

the  "Landing"  and  hence  became  known  as  "Underwood's 
Addition."  He  also  appears  to  have  obtained  a  grant  to  fifty 
acres  in  the  same  vicinity  known  as  "Mutual  Consent"  or 
"Mutual  Content."  According  to  a  deed  given  by  Henry  Lewis 
to  Thomas  Cockey  in  1704,  Samuel  Underwood  sold  the  tract 
known  as  "Middle  Neck"  to  Lewis's  father-in-law,  Wm.  Jones, 
14  Aug.,  1683.  The  remainder  of  the  property  he  seems  to  have 
held  together  and  probably  lived  upon  until  his  death  which 
must  have  occurred  before  1742. 

970.  Samuel  Underwood  of  Baltimore  county,  Md.,  (son  of 
Sarmiel  969)  b. ;  m.  and  had  children:

Samuel  Underwood  on  i  Oct.,  1742,  transferred  by  a  deed  of 
gift  to  his  "kinsman  Thomas  Cockey"  all  his  title  to  lands  on  the 
north  side  of  the  Severn  Riv^er  enumerated  as  the  "Landing," 
"Middle  Neck,"  and  "Mutual  Consent"  which  he  held  as  heir- 
at-law  of  his  father,  Samuel,  and  his  grandfather,  Thomas  Under- 
wood. He  appears  to  have  left  the  homestead  of  his  grandfather 
and  to  have  settled  in  Baltimore  county.  Nothing  certain  is 
known  of  this  man  except  what  appears  from  this  deed. 

971.  Samuel  Underwood  of  Baltimore  county,  Md.,  (son  of 
Samuel  970)  b. ;  m.  and  had  children  (?). 

Samuel  Underwood  on  24  Aug.,  1753,  gave  to  John  Brice  a 
deed  apparently  intended  to  clear  title  in  which  he  enumerates  the 
tracts,  the  "Landing"  and  so  forth,  and  mentions  his  grandfather, 
Samuel,  and  great-grandfather,  Thomas.  All  that  is  known  of 
this  man  is  what  can  be  learned  from  this  deed. 

St.  Mary's  County  (Md.)  Family 

The  founder  of  this  family  was  Anthony  Unden\'Ood  who  came 
into  the  Province  of  Maryland  in  1678  in  the  ship  Joseph  and 
Benjamin  from  London  commanded  by  Capt.  Edmund  Pane. 
He  was  evidently  a  lawyer  and  began  the  practice  of  his  pro- 
fession immediately.  Although  he  appears  to  have  been  a  man 
34 


514  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY    IN   AMERICA 

of  some  prominence  and  of  considerable  ability  we  find  very 
meager  traces  of  his  descendants. 

972.  Anthony  Underwood  of  St.  Mary's  county,  Md.,  (son  of 

)  b.  about  1659;  ^-  ^^^  had  at  least: 

i.  Thomas,  b.  about  1 68 1.     (See  no.  973.) 

Anthony   Underwood   m.    (2)   after   1682   Martha  ,   the 

widow  of  Robert  Ridgely,  and  probably  had  no  children. 

Anthony  Underwood  arrived  in  Maryland  in  1678  and  was 
evidently  a  lawyer  as  he  appears  frequently  in  the  early  records 
of  the  colony  as  a  procurator  and  attorney  for  various  parties. 
As  early  as  1681  we  find  him  credited  with  250  pounds  of  tobacco 
for  services  to  the  Province,  but  of  what  character  is  not  stated. 
He  was  also  clerk  of  the  Grand  Committee  into  which  the  two 
houses  of  the  Maryland  Assembly  resolved  themselves  in  1684 
for  the  consideration  and  inspection  of  the  laws  pursuant  to  the 
special  request  of  Lord  Baltimore.  In  this  service  he  received 
as  his  compensation  3500  lbs.  of  tobacco.  Again  in  1686  he  is 
credited  with  7500  lbs.  of  tobacco  for  public  service.  In  1688 
he  was  a  member  of  the  Lower  House  and  was  appointed  with 
others  as  a  committee  to  enter  a  formal  protest  against  a  summons 
issued  by  the  Upper  House  ordering  the  Lower  House  to  meet 
with  them,  from  which  it  appears  that  he  was  one  of  the  fathers 
of  American  independence.  At  this  same  session  he  presented  a 
claim  for  2500  lbs.  of  tobacco  for  the  entertainment  of  the  Hon. 
Col.  Tailler  at  his  private  residence  during  the  sessions  of  the 
Assembly.  This  claim  the  Lower  House  allowed,  but  the  Upper 
House  disapproved  on  the  ground  that  it  was  "  not  fit  to  charge 
the  public  with  the  private  expense  that  any  member  of  the 
Assembly  is  at  in  his  own  house  the  same  being  no  public  house 
to  the  burthen  of  the  country  and  the  discouragement  of  public 
ordinaries  whose  livelyhood  depend  thereon."  A  conference  of 
the  two  houses  was  finally  called  and  the  claim  was  allowed  for 
this  time  but  it  must  not  be  done  again. 

In  1684  a  crime  was  committed  within  the  Province  that  was  of 
far-reaching  political  importance.     We  have  not  the  space  to 


THE   MARYLAND   FAMILIES — ST,   MARYS   COUNTY  515 

enter  into  full  particulars  of  this  incident  and  must  refer  the 
reader  to  any  good  history  of  Maryland  for  a  more  complete 
account.  It  is  of  interest  to  us  here  only  for  the  part  that  An- 
thony Underwood  had  in  the  matter  and  because  of  its  showing 
the  prominent  place  he  held  in  the  colony  for  so  young  a  man. 
Col.  Geo.  Talbott,  an  officer  of  the  proprietary  government  and  a 
relative  of  Lord  Baltimore,  had  killed  Mr.  Christopher  Rousby, 
the  king's  revenue  collector,  while  on  board  one  of  his  majesty's 
vessels  known  as  a  ketch  in  the  Patuxent  River.  He  had  been 
arrested  by  the  commander  of  the  ketch  who,  refusing  to  recog- 
nize the  authority  of  the  Proprietary  government,  placed  his 
vessel  and  his  prisoner  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  governor 
of  Virginia.  Anthony  Undervs'ood  and  Clement  Hill  were  ap- 
pointed special  messengers  to  bear  a  letter  to  Lord  Howard,  the 
governor  of  Virginia,  requesting  the  surrender  of  Col.  Talbott 
to  the  Maryland  authorities  on  the  ground  that  the  crime  was 
committed  within  that  Province.  Later,  at  a  council  held  at 
St.  Mary's,  Mr.  Underwood,  who  claimed  to  be  twenty-five 
years  of  age,  gave  testimony  which  we  quote  in  full  as  throwing 
more  light  on  the  Hfe  and  character  of  Anthony  Underwood 
than  anything  else  we  have  found. 

"I,  Anthony  Underwood,  was  sent  for  the  first  day  of  Novem- 
ber (1684)  to  the  house  of  Christopher  Rousby  Esq''  and  when  I 
came  there,  I  understood  by  the  said  Rousby's  servants  that 
their  master  was  killed  on  board  a  ketch  then  rideing  about  two 
miles  within  the  mouth  of  Pottuxen  River  over  against  the 
said  Rousby's  Landing;  which  said  ketch  this  deponent  was 
informed  belonged  to  his  Majestic  our  Sovereigne  Lord  the  King, 
and  that  one  Thomas  Allen  was  Commander  of  the  same,  on  the 
morrow  being  Sunday  the  said  Allen  sent  a  boate  to  fetch  this 
Deponent  aboard,  and  this  Deponent  was  carried  on  board  in  the 
said  boate,  and  when  I  came  on  board  the  said  ketch,  I  saw  Coll. 
Talbott  most  inhumanely  loaded  with  Irons,  and  enquiring  the 
reason  of  the  Capt.  he  told  me  the  said  Talbott  had  killed  Mr. 
Rousby  on  board,  and  that  he  was  resolved  to  carry  him  for 
Virginia,  to  receive  his  tryall  for  the  fact  there.     This  Deponent 


5l6  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN  AMERICA 

did  then  advise  Capt.  Allen  as  his  ffriend  to  have  a  care  what  he 
did,  and  further  told  him  that  the  prisoner  ought  to  be  tryed 
where  the  fact  was  committed;  upon  which  discourse  came  on 
board  the  honorable  Coll.  Henry  Darnall,  and  Major  Nicholas 
Sewall  two  of  the  Deputy  Governors  under  the  Right  Honorable 
the  Lord  Proprietary  and  did  then  and  there  demand  the  body 
of  the  said  Talbott  in  the  name  of  my  Lord  Proprietary  to  be 
delivered  to  them  in  order  to  receive  his  tryall,  and  that  Justice 
might  be  done  according  to  Law.  To  which  Allen  replyed  he 
knew  not  the  name  of  the  Lord  Proprietary  nor  would  obey  any 
One  in  or  under  that  name,  nor  noe  other  name  but  kings.  To 
which  the  said  Governors  or  one  of  them  made  answer  that  they 
came  in  noe  other  name,  nor  by  any  other  Authority  but  what 
was  derived  from  the  king  or  words  to  that  effect,  and  thereupon 
produced  a  Coppy  of  my  Lord's  Charter,  but  notwithstanding 
severall  reasons  urged  for  the  delivery  of  the  said  Talbott  Allen 
refused  the  delivery  of  him,  and  soe  the  said  Deputy  Governors 
went  ashoare;  afterwards  the  said  Allen  caused  me  to  stay  to 
drink  a  bowle  of  punch  with  him,  which  this  Deponent  did. 
The  said  Allen  sayed  that  now  my  Lord's  Charter  was  not  worth 
a  pinn,  and  that  there  were  a  great  many  of  hungry  Courtiers 
that  would  jump  at  the  news  of  Rousby's  death,  being  killed  by 
the  hands  of  Coll.  Talbott,  being  a  man  intrusted  by  my  Lord, 
and  that  it  was  noe  doubt  but  they  would  doe  my  Lord's  business 
with  the  King,  and  soone  after  this  Deponent  went  ashoare. 
After  which  this  Deponent  had  occasion  to  goe  into  Virginia, 
and  at  the  house  of  Ralph  Wormeley  Esq""  this  Deponent  mett 
with  the  said  Allen,  and  the  said  Allen  sayed  that  notwithstanding 
all  that  Maryland  could  doe,  he  had  brought  Talbott  along  with 
him.  This  Deponent  made  answer  none  in  Maryland  endeavored 
in  the  least  to  hinder  it,  the  said  Allen  made  answer  it  was  well 
they  did  not,  for  if  any  had,  he  would  not  spare  man,  woman,  nor 
child,  but  lay  the  whole  Countr>'  desolate,  and  further  the  said 
Allen  sayed  he  doubted  not  but  that  he  would  bring  Maryland 
under  that  Government  of  Virginia.  This  Deponent  made 
answer  that  it  would  be  well  for  the  said  Allen  to  govern  his 
tongue  now  he  was  on  shoare,  for  although  he  huflf'd  people  on 
board,  he  must  not  expect  to  do  soe  on  shoare,  upon  which  dis- 
course Allen  became  very  friendly  and  kind  in  all  Offices  of 
kindness  to  me.     And  further  saith  not." 


THE   MAR'i'LAXD   FAMILIES — ST,    MARY's   COUNTY  517 

In  1685  Anthony  Undenvood,  gentleman,  was  one  of  the  four 
aldermen  in  the  Common  Council  of  the  City  of  St.  Marys 
which  adopted  a  series  of  by-laws  for  the  general  government  of 
the  city.  Among  these  is  one  of  special  interest  as  follows: 
"Notice  being  taken  by  this  Court  of  the  greate  debaucheries  and 
disorders  that  are  committed  in  this  City  on  Sundays  by  several 
persons  by  drinking,  gameing,  sweareing,  etc.,  to  the  great  dis- 
honor and  displeasure  of  Almighty  God,  the  breach  of  the 
Sabbath  and  the  obstructing  of  the  good  government  of  this- 
City.  Ordered  that  noe  ordinary*  keeper  within  this  City  shall 
henceforth  sell,  utter,  or  dispose  of  by  retayle  or  otherwise  upon 
Sundayes,  any  wine,  brandy,  Rumm,  or  other  dramms  or  strong 
liquors  to  any  person  or  persons  whatsoever,  Travellers,  strangers, 
and  sick  people  onely  excepted,  and  to  them  spareingly  and  noe 
more  than  shall  be  thought  good  for  their  refreshment." 

Anthony  Underwood  obtained  lo  Sept.,  1684,  a  grant  of  200 
acres  of  land  called  "Coxes  Advice"  located  on  the  "east  side  of 
Chesepeake  Bay  at  the  head  of  Kokianakin  River  back  in  the 
woods  in  a  fork  of  said  river  about  a  mile  from  the  waterside."" 
On  ID  May,  1685,  he  obtained  another  grant  of  200  acres  of 
land  in  St.  Mary's  county  called  "Underwood's  Choice."  And 
on  I  April,  1686,  he  obtained  a  further  grant  of  300  acres  called 
"Underwood"  lying  "in  Charles  county  on  the  eastern  branch 
of  Potomac  River." 

It  is  evident  that  Anthony  Underwood  was  highly  successful 
in  the  new  world  and  was  in  line  for  a  most  prominent  part  in  the 
early  history  of  Maryland,  but  he  was  cut  down  at  the  very 
beginning  of  his  career,  being  scarcely  more  than  thirty  years 
old  at  the  time  of  his  death.  We  find  mention  of  him  in  active 
life  as  late  as  Dec,  1688,  but  he  d.  intestate  before  1692  as  the 
inventory  of  his  estate  was  filed  23  Aug.,  1692,  at  which  time  his 
wife,  Martha,  who  outlived  him  had  also  died.  Charles  Carroll 
was  administrator  of  both  estates  and  may  have  married  the 

*  Tavern  or  inn.

widow  but  the  language  of  the  record  is  ambiguous  and  it  is 
not  certain.* 

973.  Thomas  Underwood  of  St.  Mary's  county,  Md.,  (son  of 
Anthony  972)  b.  about  1681;  probably  m.  (i)  about  1709  Ann 

,  the  widow  of  John  Dunbar,  and  m.  (2)  before  1712,  Mary 

Egerton,  whose  mother  made  her  will  in  1712  as  Anne  Boucher, 
probably  having  married  a  second  time,  and  had  children  at  least: 

i.  Anthony,  b. .     (See  no.  974.) 

ii.  Thomas,  b. .     (?) 

Thomas  Underw'ood  was  evidently  a  law^'er  and  a  man  of 
considerable  property  in  his  day,  as  he  appears  quite  often  as  a 
bondsman  in  the  settlement  of  various  estates  from  1 708-1 733. 
He  seems  to  have  spent  his  life  in  St.  Mary's  county  where  he 
died  about  1753.  He  made  his  will  31  Oct.,  1747,  which  was 
proved  30  July,  1753.  In  his  will  he  names  himself  as  Thomas, 
Senior,  but  mentions  only  one  son,  Anthony,  He  mentions  as 
chattels  a  number  of  negro  slaves.  The  inventory  of  his  estate 
returned  by  his  executrix  amounted  to  £303 — 19 — iH-  His 
widow,  Mary  Egerton  Underwood,  died  shortly  prior  to  14  Dec, 
1758. 

974.  Anthony  Underwood  of  St.  Mary's  county,  Md.,  (son  of 
Thomas  no.  973)  b .  He  seems  to  have  inherited  the  busi- 
ness of  his  father  and  appears  with  William  Dunbar  as  surety 
on  a  bond  as  early  as  1733.     Nothing  further  is  known  of  him. 


It  has  not  been  possible  to  trace  the  descendants  of  Anthony 
Underwood  no.  972  any  farther,  but  the  fact  that  his  son,  Thomas 
no.  973,  speaks  of  himself  as  Thomas,  Senior,  while  he  mentions 
only  one  son,  Anthony,  suggests  that  he  may  have  had  a  family 

*  Charles  Carroll  was  the  grandfather  of  Charles  Carroll  of  Carrollton,  one  of 
the  signers  of  the  Declaration  of  Independence.  Joshua  D.  Warfield,  "  Founders 
of  Anne  Arundel  and  Howard  Counties,  Md.,"  p.  501,  says  that  the  above  Charles 
Carroll  married  Martha  Underwood,  daughter  of  Anthony  and  that  she  died  in 
1690.  This  is  manifestly  impossible  and  it  is  evident  that  Warfield  has  mistaken 
the  widow  Martha  for  a  daughter. — ed. 


THE  MARYLAND  FAMILIES — ST.  MARY  S  COUNTY     519 

of  several  children  whose  names  are  now  lost.  We  find  frag- 
mentary traces  of  Underwoods  in  Charles  county  and  Prince 
George's  county  and  it  seems  probable  that  the  migratory  move- 
ment from  St.  Mary's  county  would  be  naturally  toward  Prince 
George's  county.  We  believe,  therefore,  that  the  Underwoods 
later  found  in  Prince  George's  county  are  derived  from  the  St. 
Mary's  county  family,  although  we  cannot  actually  show  the 
connection.  We  take  up  the  following  families  here  on  this 
assumption. 

975.  Jesse  Underwood  of  Frederick  county,  Md.,  (son  of ) 

b.  about  1742;  m.  Lavinia and  had  children: 

i.  George,  b.  about  1767.     (See  no.  976.) 

ii.  Jesse,  b. ;  supposed  to  have  rem.  to  Kentucky. 

iii.  John,  b. ;  settled  in  one  of  the  interior  counties  of 

West  Virginia. 

iv.  Elizabeth,  b.  ;  m.  Owens  of  West  Virginia; 

from  one  of  her  daughters  are  descended  the  Athas  of  West 
Virginia. 

V.  Nancy,  b.  ;  m.  Robert  Downs  and  lived  in  West 

Virginia. 

Jesse  Underwood,  the  father,  is  said  to  have  lived  somewhere 
on  the  eastern  shore  of  Maryland  where  his  son  George  is  sup- 
posed to  have  been  born;  afterwards  he  rem.  to  Frederick  county 
in  Western  Maryland  and  is  thought  to  have  died  there.  Little 
further  is  know  of  him;  he  is  said  to  have  had  brothers,  John 
and  Levi,  who  were  said  to  have  been  tories  during  the  time  of 
the  Revolution. 

This  account  is  wholly  traditional.  It  is  known  that  the  son, 
George,  was  living  in  the  vicinity  of  Piscataway,  Prince  George's 
Co.,  Md.,  in  1794.  We  also  have  the  record  of  an  Elizabeth 
Underwood  who  married  John  Downs  in  Piscataway  parish  13 
Dec,  1789.  It  seems,  therefore,  probable  that  Jesse  Underwood 
was  of  Prince  George's  county  at  one  time  and  may  have  come 
from  Charles  or  St.  Mary's.  It  is  possible  that  he  was  a  grandson 
of  Thomas  no.  973  but  we  have  no  proof  of  it.

976.  George  Underwood  of  Farmington,  Va.,  (now  West

George  Underwood  rem.  to  Berkeley  county,  Virginia,  where  he 
was  married  and  where  his  eldest  son  was  born  at  Martinsburg. 
He  is  said  to  have  been  tall  and  of  a  dark  complexion.  A  George 
Underwood  is  described  in  the  first  United  States  Census  in  1790 
as  living  in  Prince  George's  county  with  a  family  consisting  of  a 
wife  and  one  child.  It  seems  highly  probable  that  he  was  the 
above,  although  this  does  not  conform  to  the  family  tradition.  It 
is  evident,  however,  from  the  record  of  the  baptism  of  his  son, 
Henry  Martin,  in  Piscataway  parish  that  he  was  living  in  Prince 
George's  county  as  late  as  1794.  According  to  the  United  States 
Census  he  owned  one  slave.  He  d.  in  1852  at  Farmington,  Va.

liked  new  country  and  to  turn  the  virgin  soil.  This  brought  him 
to  Wisconsin  in  1836  for  more  room  and  more  land.  He  'took 
up'  nearly  a  square  mile  of  land  and  lived  on  it  until  his  death, 
giving  his  children  farms  as  they  married.  He  was  prominent  in 
the  early  days  of  Wisconsin:  he  built  himself  a  brick  house  in 
Virginia  mansion  style  making  the  brick  on  the  place.  He  kept 
open  house  in  the  southern  fashion  and  took  care  of  all  his  rela- 
tives who  were  left  behind  in  'old  Virginny.'  He  was  a  strong 
abolitionist  and  temperance  man  and  a  Christian,  though  he  was 
none  of  these  in  his  youth."

Enoch  Downs  Underwood  was  a  farmer  and  clergyman.  He 
lived  in  Virginia  until  he  was  seven  years  of  age,  then  rem. 
with  the  family  first  to  Danville,  111.,  in  1824  and  thence  to 
Wisconsin  Territory  in  1836.  He  had  no  early  educational 
advantages .  beyond  the  district  school  until  he  had  reached 
eighteen  years  of  age  when  he  had  a  few  terms  at  an  academic 
school.  His  proficiency  during  that  time  was  remarkable  and 
as  he  continued  to  be  a  student  of  books  of  nature  and  of  life 
few  men  were  better  informed  on  all  vital  subjects.  He  was 
interested  in  the  questions  which  agitated  the  minds  of  the  early 
settlers,  entering  heartily  into  abolition  and  temperance  reforms. 
Having  natural  gifts  as  a  speaker  he  soon  entered  into  public 
life  and  his  friends  prophesied  political  honors  for  him  had  he  not 
espoused  unpopular  causes.  Up  to  the  time  of  the  Civil  War 
his  house  was  known  as  a  station  upon  the  "Underground  Rail- 
way," a  secret  thoroughfare  from  "Mason  and  Dixon's  line" 
to  Canada.  His  religious  views  having  changed  from  skepticism 
to  a  firm  belief  in  the  religion  of  Christ,  he  devoted  ever  after 
his  time  and  his  talents  towards  the  advancement  of  Christianity. 
In  due  time  he  was  called  to  the  ministry  by  the  people  among

whom  he  had  labored.  Feeling  his  unfitness  and  lack  of  prepara- 
tion he  long  hesitated,  but  when  duty  was  made  plain  to  him  he 
accepted  his  life-work  humbly  and  to  quote  from  a  sketch  by  a 
friend  and  associate  pastor  for  many  years:  "He  devoted  himself 
with  the  greatest  fidelity  to  the  work  of  the  ministry.  Few 
ministers  of  the  Gospel  were  ever  more  industrious  or  made  more 
of  their  resources.  The  result  was  that  he  became  one  of  the 
best  and  most  effective  ministers  of  the  Baptist  denomination. 
His  natural  abilities  as  a  speaker  made  him  one  of  the  most  im- 
pressive and  able  preachers  that  we  have  ever  had  in  the  state." 
He  was  for  forty  years  the  pastor  of  the  church  which  called  him 
to  be  its  minister.  He  d.  26  April,  1888,  at  Wauwatosa,  Wis. 
Harriet  Denny  Underwood  d.  14  Feb.,  1904,  aged  86  years.

Curtis.     His  portrait  is  presented  opposite. 

979.  Frederick  Douglass  Underwood  of  New  York  city,  (son  of 
Enoch  D.  978)  b.  i  Feb.,  1849,  at  Wauwatosa,  Wis.;  m.  in  1875,

from  Cornell  University  in  1903  and  is  a  member  of  the  Chi  Psi 
fraternity. 

Frederick  D.  Underwood  m.  (2)  in  1893  Mrs.  Alice  Stafford 
Robbins;  no  children  by  this  marriage. 

Frederick  Douglass  Underwood  had  an  academic  education, 
leaving  school  at  the  age  of  eighteen  to  engage  in  railroad  work 
with  the  Chicago,  Milwaukee,  and  St.  Paul  R.  R.  in  whose 
service  he  remained  eighteen  years,  occupying  almost  every  posi- 
tion on  the  operating  side  of  the  road  from  brakeman  to  super- 
intendent of  a  division.  In  1886  he  was  called  to  the  Minneapolis 
and  Pacific  Railway  as  general  superintendent  and  the  same  year 
took  charge  of  the  construction  of  the  Minneapolis,  St.  Paul,  and 
Sault  Ste.  Marie  Railway,  an  extension  of  the  former.  He 
retained  the  position  as  general  manager  of  that  road  for  thirteen 
years.     In  January,  1899,  he  went  to  the  Baltimore  and  Ohio  as 


524  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA 

general  manager  and  in  June  of  the  same  year  was  made  second 
vice-president.  In  May,  1901,  he  was  elected  to  the  presidency 
of  the  Erie  Railroad  and  allied  companies  which  position  he  still 
occupies.  In  the  "Life  Stories  of  Successful  Men,"  Mr.  Henry 
M.  Hyde  says:  "When  he  left  the  St.  Paul  to  take  the  position 
of  general  superintendent  of  the  Minneapolis  and  Pacific  Railway 
in  1886,  Mr.  Underwood  took  with  him  two  qualities  which  have 
ever  since  been  especially  valuable  to  him.  One  was  an  ability 
to  meet  any  crisis  in  the  operating  of  a  railroad  quickly  and 
successfully.  That  was  a  direct  result  of  his  practical  acquaint- 
ance with  every  detail  of  railroad  operation.  .  .  .  The  second 
great  quality  is  that  of  always  keeping  in  touch  with  the  working 
force  under  him.  It  is  easy  to  understand  that  an  executive 
who  has  himself  served  as  brakeman  will  be  quicker  to  understand 
and  sympathize  with  brakemen  than  will  one  whose  knowledge 
of  that  part  of  the  work  is  purely  theoretical.  .  .  .  The  third  in 
the  trinity  of  great  qualities  which  have  made  Mr.  Underwood 
one  of  the  foremost  of  railroad  managers,  is  that  of  tireless 
personal  energy.  His  associates  speak  of  him  as  a  perfect 
whirlwind  of  determination  and  action."

Thomas  Underwood  was  living  in  the  vicinity  of  Piscataway  in 
1790  and  1794  ^^^  owned  one  slave.  He  is  also  mentioned  in 
1812  when  he  gives  a  chattel  mortgage  for  9981  lbs.  of  tobacco  on 
"a  negro  woman  called  Bess  and  a  negro  woman  called  Suck  with 
her  infant  child  not  yet  named."  He  may  have  been  a  son  of

Thomas  Undenvood  was  in  some  way  related  to  William  Under- 
wood no.  1020  since  Thomas  M.  Underwood  no.  1023  speaks  of 
Enoch  above  as  a  distant  cousin.  A  Thomas  Underwood  m. 
Susanna  Lindsay  in  1838  and  it  seems  probable  that  he  was  this 
Thomas.  Efforts  to  obtain  information  from  the  Underwoods  of 
Piscataway  were  nearly  futile.

Notes  on  Maryland  Families. 
The  following  records  from  various  sources  pertain  to  members 
of  Maryland  families,  but  it  has  not  been  possible  to  identify 
them   with    certainty.     Some   items   doubtless   pertain   to   the 
Delaware  Family.     See  also  notes  at  the  end  of  that  family. 

John  Underwood  was  witness  to  the  will  of  John  Wright  31  March,  1675, 
county  not  given. 

John  Underwood  settled  in  Talbot  county  on  the  river  Wye  where  he  d.  in  1676. 
He  left  a  will  but  a  copy  of  it  could  not  be  found. 

John  Underwood  and  Margaret,  probably  wife,  were  witnesses  to  the  will  of 
John  Elsey  of  Calvert  county,  3  March,  1699.  He  likely  had  a  daughter,  Sarah, 
as  Jeremiah  Eldridge  of  Calvert  county  in  169S  willed  personalty  to  "  Sarah 
daughter  of  John  Underwood." 

One  of  the  above  John  Under^voods  may  have  been  the  immigrant  no.  964. 

Francis  Underwood  was  of  Somerset  county,  Md.,  in  16S2. 

Mary  Underwood  of  Mar>land  received  personalty  in  the  will  of  Henry*  Willcocks

IX.  The  Virginia  Families. 

The  present  Undenvood  families  of  Virginia  and  neighboring 
states  have  probably  been  derived  from  various  ancestors  and  do 
not  represent  a  single  family.  Several  men  by  the  name  of 
Underwood  embarked  for  this  country  in  1634  and  1635,  but, 
unfortunately,  no  further  records  are  available  of  their  descend- 
ants if  they  had  any  or  even  of  their  marriages.  Many  of  the 
earlier  settlers  of  the  Virginia  province  were  of  the  adventurous 
class  and  were  less  likely  to  form  families  than  those  who  formed 
parts  of  colonies  largely  settled  by  people  who  were  driven  out  of 
their  mother  country  by  religious  persecution.  Besides  these 
earlier  settlers  there  were  at  least  two  by  the  name  of  Underwood 
who  reached  Virginia  before  1700,  of  whom  more  or  less  extensive 
records  have  been  found.  The  first  of  these  arrived  before  1650 
but  his  name  is  not  known  and  his  only  son,  William  Underwood, 
became  the  virtual  founder  of  the  family.     William  was  promi- 


THE   VIRGINIA   FAMILIES  543 

nent  in  the  colony  as  early  as  1652  and  it  is  possible  that  the 
father  never  came  to  Virginia.  The  family  has  not  been  traced 
to  living  descendants.  We  have  designated  this  line  as  the 
Rappahannock  County  Family.  It  must  be  understood  that  at 
this  early  date  Rappahannock  county  included  all  of  northeastern 
Virginia  lying  along  the  Potomac  River. 

The  second  Underwood  known  to  be  the  founder  of  a  Virginia 
family  was  Thomas  William  Underwood  (no.  1040)  who  came 
from  England  in  1680.  Some  of  his  descendants  later  migrated 
to  Kentucky  and  there  became  even  more  prominent  in  political 
life  than  they  had  been  in  the  older  colony  of  Virginia.  Mainly 
owing  to  the  researches  of  Hon.  John  Cox  Unden\'ood  (no.  1050) 
we  are  able  to  give  a  continuous  line  of  this  Kentucky  branch 
from  the  immigrant  ancestor  to  living  members,  but  generally 
the  lines  of  descent  from  Thomas  William  Underwood  are  very 
incomplete,  in  part  owing  to  the  loss  of  clues,  but  also  largely 
because  of  a  persistent  failure  to  obtain  replies  to  letters  of 
inquiry.     We  call  this  family  the  Hanover  County  Family. 

One  other  prominent  family  has  been  traced  from  an  immigrant 
ancestor  to  present  descendants.  These  are  the  descendants  of 
Joseph  Underwood  (no.  1076)  from  Yorkshire,  England,  who  is 
said  to  have  come  first  to  Virginia  but  early  migrated  to  Georgia 
where  various  members  of  the  family  have  been  connected  with 
the  political  development  of  that  province  and  state.  This 
family  we  will  call  the  Georgia  Family.  A  number  of  other 
families  originating  in  Virginia  early  migrated  to  Western  Vir- 
ginia and  from  that  center  became  distributed  through  Ken- 
tucky and  the  west.  Still  others  are  found  in  the  west  and  south- 
west whose  ancestry  points  back  to  Virginia,  North  Carolina, 
or  Georgia.  None  of  these  have  been  traced  to  an  immigrant 
ancestor  and  some  very  likely  are  branches  of  one  of  the  three 
preceding  families.  Much  remains  to  be  known  of  all  these 
families  and  their  branches. 

The  early  settlers  in  Virginia  bearing  the  name  Underwood 
other  than  the  three  already  named  are  as  follows: 


544  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA 

1031.  John  Underwood  from  England,  b.  in  1611;  embarked 
on  the  Bona  venture  for  Virginia  in  1634.  His  age  at  that  time 
was  23  which  fixes  approximately  his  birth  date.  Nothing  is 
known  of  his  descendants,  if,  indeed,  he  had  any. 

1032.  Robert  Underwood  of  England,  b.  in  1605;  embarked  on 
the  Paule  of  London  bound  for  Virginia  in  1635.  His  age  at  that 
time  was  30  which  fixes  approximately  the  date  of  his  birth. 
It  is  not  known  whether  he  ever  married. 

1033.  Andrew  Underwood  of  England,  b.  in  161 3,  sailed  in  the 
Assurance  for  Virginia  in  July,  1635.  His  age  at  that  time  was 
22.     Nothing  is  known  of  him  further. 

1034.  John  Underwood  of  England,  b.  in  1616;  sailed  in  the 
America  for  Virginia  23  June,  1635.  Nothing  further  is  known  of 
his  history. 

Some  of  the  numerous  Underwoods  who  trace  their  origin  to 
Virginia  but  are  unable  to  locate  their  ancestry  more  definitely 
may  be  descended  from  any  of  the  above  men.  Something  may 
later  be  determined  by  an  exhaustive  examination  of  original 
records  in  Virginia.  Land  records,  probate  records,  church 
records,  court  records,  and  military  records  may  all  furnish  some 
items  when  a  future  genealogist  is  able  to  examine  them.  This 
we  have  not  had  the  opportunity  to  do.  We  can  only  place  on 
record  such  fragments  as  may  be  of  assistance  to  some  one  more 
able  to  carry  out  this  work. 

The  Rappahanock  County  (Va.)  Family. 

The  nominal  head  of  this  family  is  not  known  nor  is  it  certain 
that  he  ever  reached  Virginia,  but  his  wife  and  family  were 
evidently  here  before  1650.  He  had  only  one  son,  William, 
who  became  the  virtual  head  of  the  family  and  the  founder  of  this 
line  of  American  Underwoods.  The  family  in  succeeding  genera- 
tions appears  to  have  migrated  along  the  north  side  of  the 
Rappahannock  River  through  the  counties  of  Lancaster,  Rich- 
mond, and  King  George,  where  we  lose  further  trace  of  them.

was  afterwards  Port  Royal,  and  Elizabeth  m.  (3)  in  1672,  Rev.

546  THE   UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN  AMERICA 

1036.  William  Underwood  of  Rappahannock  county,  Va., 
(son  of 1035)  b. ;  m.  Mary and  had  children: 

i.  William,  b. .     (See  no.  1037.) 

ii.  John,  b. .     (See  no.  1038.) 

Mary Underwood  d.  after  1659  and  William  Underw^ood 

m.  (2)  Elizabeth ;  apparently  no  children  by  this  marriage. 

William  Underwood  probably  was  not  born  in  Virginia,  but 
was  here  at  least  as  early  as  1649,  for  on  12  Aug.,  1649,  William 
Moseley  was  given  power  of  attorney  to  receive  certain  payments 
from  "Mr.  William  Underwood,  dwelling  in  Virginia,"  which  was 
recorded  in  Lancaster  county.  He  must  have  been  at  this  time 
a  mature  man  and  probably  married.  He  obtained  a  grant  of 
land  on  the  north  side  of  the  Rappahannock  in  1650.  He  further 
received  land  by  deed  in  Isle  of  Wight  county,  Va.,  from  his  step- 
father, Lieut.  Col.  John  Upton,  18  Nov.,  1651.  He  was  burgess 
for  Lancaster  county  in  1652  and  also  a  justice  and  on  ii  Dec, 
1656,  he  was  appointed  one  of  the  justices  and  one  of  the  com- 
missioners of  Rappahannock  county  at  its  formation.  In  1657, 
as  Captain  William  Underwood,  he  deeded  650  acres  on  the  north 
side  of  the  Rappahannock  River.  He  d.  before  1675,  as  in  that 
year  his  widow,  Elizabeth,  is  mentioned  in  a  deed  as  the  wife  of 
Archdale  Combe  of  Rappahannock  county,  and  he  is  referred  to 
as  Major  William  Underwood. 

1037.  William  Underwood  of  Richmond  county,  Va.,  (son  of 
William  1036?)  b. ;  m.  and  had  children:

iv.  Elizabeth,  b. ;  m. Thatcher  and  had  children: 

(l)  John  Thatcher  and  (2)  William  Thatcher. 

v.  Sarah,  b. ;  m. Gilbert. 

William  Underwood  lived  in  Richmond  county,  Va.,  where 
he  made  his  will  19  July,  1717,  and  it  was  admitted  to  probate  7 
Aug.,  171 7.  All  that  is  known  of  him  and  his  family  is  what  is 
contained  in  his  will.     It  is  not  certain  that  he  is  the  William

Underwood,  son  of  William  no.  1036  as  here  assumed,  but  it 
seems  highly  probable.  He  is  doubtless  the  Capt.  Wm.  Under-

militia  under  date  of  6  March,  1704/5,  in  Richmond  county.

John   Underwood   made  his  will   and   it  was   presented   for 
probate  in  King  George  county  5  April,  1722,  so  that  he  probably 
died  a  little  before  that  date.     The  record  of  the  will  has  been  lost. 

1039.  William  Underwood  of  King  George  county,  Va.,  (son  of

George  county  in  1772.

Lieutenant  Underwood  was  at  Dudley's  defeat,  near  the  present

John  Cox  Underwood  was  born  at  the  home  of  his  maternal 
grandfather.  Col.  John  Cox,  Georgetown,  D.  C,  while  his  father 
was  attending  Congress.  "At  the  close  of  the  session  he  was 
taken  to  Kentucky,  and  received  his  early  education  in  the 
schools  of  Bowling  Green.  When  fourteen  years  old,  he  was 
sent  to  the  high  school  at  Jacksonville,  111.,  where  he  remained 
two  years.  Ke  was  then  sent  to  the  Rensselaer  Polytechnic 
Institute,  at  Troy,  N.  Y.,  a  college  of  civil  engineering  and  general 
sciences.  After  a  course  of  four  years,  he  graduated  with 
distinction,  as  a  civil  engineer.  At  the  beginning  of  the  Civil 
War  he  espoused  the  cause  of  the  Southern  people,  and  served 
the  South,  mainly  as  a  military  engineer,  in  Virginia;  but  on 
coming  West,  after  the  battle  of  Chancellorsville,  he  was  taken 
sick  with  typhoid  fever,  and  fell  within  the  Federal  lines,  upon 
the  retreat  of  General  Bragg  from  TuUahoma,  Tenn.  He  was 
held  prisoner  for  the  remainder  of  the  war,  spending  the  greater 
portion  of  his  prison  existence  in  McLean  Barracks,  Cincinnati, 
and  Fort  Warren,  Boston,  Mass.  Through  the  interposition  of 
Hon.  Thomas  Corwin,  of  Ohio,  a  warm  friend  of  his  father,  he  was 
paroled  by  President  Lincoln,  just  prior  to  his  assassination,  and, 
returning  to  Kentucky,  he  began  the  practice  of  his  profession. 
He  was  city  engineer  of  Bowling  Green,  Ky.,  from  1868  to  1875; 
was  member  of  the  City  Council  from  1869  to  1870;  and  was 
mayor  for  the  two  years  following.  In  1875  he  was  elected 
Lieutenant-governor  of  Kentucky  by  the  Democratic  party  and 
held  the  office  four  years.  He  received  a  strong  endorsement 
from  over  thirty  counties  for  the  nomination  for  governor,  but 
withdrew  before  the  convention  was  held.  About  this  time  he 
became  interested  in  journalism  and  established  the  Kentucky 
Intelligencer  at  Bowling  Green,  Ky.     After  about  one  year,  he

consolidated  this  with  the  Louisville  Post,  and  moved  to  Louis- 
ville. He  was  manager  of  the  Evening  Post  nearly  one  year 
when  he  sold  out  his  interest  and  decided  to  establish  a  daily  paper 
in  Cincinnati  in  the  interests  of  the  Democratic  party.  After 
several  months  he  succeeded  in  organizing  a  stock  company  and 
on  December  2,  1882,  the  Cincinnati  Daily  News  began  its 
career  with  John  C.  Underwood  as  its  manager.  Soon  after,  he 
purchased  the  Morning  Journal  and  the  Gazette  and  the  paper 
took  the  name  of  the  News  Journal." 

In  1872  John  C.  Underwood  was  elected  Grand-Master  of 
the  Independent  Order  of  Odd  Fellows  and  afterward  became 
Representative  to  the  Sovereign  Grand  Lodge. 

He  is  now  (1912)  living  in  Montclair,  N.  J.,  and  is  engaged  in

Untraced  Virginia  Families. 

The  following  families  all  claim  a  Virginian  ancestry,  but  we 
have  been  unable  to  trace  any  of  them  to  an  earlier  ancestor 
than  is  here  indicated  and  can  make  no  suggestion  as  to  their 
possible  connection  with  other  lines. 

1058.  Underwood  lived  in  Virginia  and  d.  there.     He  had 

at  least  three  sons : 

i.  John,  b. . 

ii.  Jacob,  b. . 

ill.  Nathan,  b. .     (See  no.  1059.) 

His  widow  and  the  three  boys  left  Virginia  early  and  descended 
the  Monongahela  River,  eventually  making  their  way  to  Shelby 
county,  Ky.,  where  they  settled.  The  country^  was  still  wild  and 
the  Indians  were  very  troublesome  so  that  the  settlers  had  to  live 
in  forts.  Soon  after  their  arrival  in  Kentucky,  John  was  captured 
by  the  Indians  and  kept  a  prisoner  for  eight  years,  during  which 
time  he  learned  to  make  moccasins.     In  after  life  he  worked  as  a

Notes  on  Virginia  Families. 

The  following  items  from  various  sources  pertain  to  Virginia 
families  but  the  parties  cannot  be  identified  with  the  preceding 
records. 

The  first  four  items  are  from  the  register  of  Farnham  Parish, 
Richmond  Co.,  Va.: 

Mary  Underwood,  dau.  of  Thomas  and  Sarah  Underwood,  was  born  20  or  22 
Oct..  1687. 

Seth  Underwood,  son  of  Mooto  and  Ann  Underwood,  was  bom  i  May,  1729; 
also  given  as  March. 

William  Underwood,  son  of  Mooto  and  Ann  Underwood,  was  born  6  Jan.,  1726. 

Alice  Underwood  m.  Thos.  Warring  5  Oct.,  1673. 

George  Underwood  of  Virginia  was  entitled  to  200  acres  of  land  for  sexvice?.  in 
the  French  and  Indian  War  which  would  indicate  that  he  was  a  non-commissioned 
officer. 

Nathan  Underwood  was  in  Company  No.  3  of  the  Augusta  county  militia,  Va., 
in  1742. 

William  Underwood  was  in  Capt.  Wm.  Edmond's  Company  of  Virginia  troops 
from  Fauquier  county  in  the  French  War,  1761. 

William  Underwood  witnessed  a  number  of  deeds  in  Spotsylvania  county  about 
1766. 


THE   GEORGIA   FAMILY  563 

The  following  were  heads  of  families  in  Virginia  in  1780  to 
1790.  It  is  a  curious  fact  that  none  of  them  appear  to  be  identi- 
fied with  any  of  the  families  of  which  we  have  records. 

I.     In  Sussex  County,  17S2. 
Absalom  Underwood  with  a  family  of  nine. 
■  Mark  Underwood  with  a  family  of  seven. 
Lewis  Underwood  with  a  family  of  si.x. 

II.     Isle  of  Wight  County,  17S2. 
Sampson  Underwood  with  a  family  of  seven. 
Theophilus  Underwood  with  a  family  of  six  and  two  slaves. 
It  seems  probable  that  the  above  are  all  members  of  a  common  stock  of  south- 
eastern Virginia. 

III.     Orange  County,  1782. 
Joshua  Underwood  with  a  family  of  eight. 
Margaret  Underwood  with  a  family  of  eight. 
Keuben  Underwood  with  a  family  of  nine. 

IV.     Unclassified. 
John  Underwood  in  Fairfax  county,  1782,  with  a  family  of  four. 
George  Underwood  in  Shenandoah  county,  1785,  apparently  no  family. 
James  Underwood  aged  14  years  and  Martha  Underwood  aged  18  years,  likely 
brother  and  sister,  were  living  in  Richmond  City,  in  1782. 


X.     The  Georgia  Family. 

The  members  of  this  family  trace  their  descent  from  Joseph 
Underwood  who  is  said  to  have  migrated  from  Yorkshire, 
England,  when  a  young  man  to  Virginia,  but  later  settled  in 
Elbert  county,  Ga.,  with  his  family.  He  is  said  to  have  had  six 
sons  besides  daughters^  We  have  been  able  to  trace  the  lines  of 
descent  with  certainty  through  only  two  of  these  sons. 

1076.  Joseph  Underwood  of  Elberton,  Elbert  Co.,  Ga.,  b. 
about  1745,  in  Yorkshire,  England,*  migrated  to  America  after 

•  The  above  information  is  said  by  Col.  VV.  Sinclair  Rowell  of  Rome,  Ga. 
(grandson  of  no.  io8r),  to  be  "  direct  from  the  best  authority."  Among  some 
of  the  members  of  the  family  there  is  a  tradition  that  their  ancestor  originally 
lived  in  Massachusetts  and  settled  in  Virginia  at  about  the  time  of  the  Revolution; 
this  Col.  Rowell  distinctly  denies.     Several  of  the  family  have  also  clciimed  relation-

on  account  of  the  fact  that  her  brother.  Judge  William  H.  Under- 
wood, had  defended  the  interests  of  the  Indians  against  the 
United  States  Government  in  the  courts.

1077.  William  Henderson  Underwood  of  Marietta,  Ga.,  (son 
of  Joseph  1076)  b.  30  Sept.,  1779,  in  Culpepper  county,  Va.;  m.  in 

ship  to  Senator  Joseph  R.  Underwood  (no.  1045)  of  Kentucky,  and  Hon.  John  Cox 
Underwood  (son  of  Joseph  R.)  states  that  his  father  always  claimed  relationship 
to  Judge  William  Henderson  Underwood  (no.  1077).  This,  if  a  fact,  may  not 
interfere  with  the  above  information,  but  there  is  at  present  no  evidence  that 
there  was  a  relationship  in  lines  originating  this  side  of  the  ocean.  According  to 
tradition  through  Thomas  Gibbs  Underwood  no.  1088,  Joseph  no.  1076  came  from 
England  to  this  country  and  raised  six  sons  besides  daughters.  One  of  the 
daughters  married  a  Jones  and  had  at  least  one  son.  Joseph  Jones.  This  tradition 
is  partly  confirmed  by  the  fact  that  Mrs.  Strickland,  now  living,  remembers  this 
cousin,  Joseph  Jones,  visiting  at  her  father's  home.  Descendants  of  Reuben 
Underwood  no.  1096  state  that  he  had  only  one  brother,  Joseph,  and  that  Ezekiel 
Underwood  no.  1098  and  Judge  John  W.  H.  Underwood  no.  1081  were  second 
cousins.  These  various  statements  are  so  conflicting  that  it  seems  impossible  to 
reconcile  them.

t  According  to  a  paper  found  among  the  effects  of  Thomas  Gibbs  Underwood,

He  was  for  several  years  judge  of  the  Western  Circuit  of  Georgia

sel of  the  Cherokee  Indians  in  their  controversy  with  the  state 
of  Georgia  at  the  time  of  their  removal  in  1837  and  "became 
famous  in  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  United  States  in  which  he

standing  in  that  town).  Judge  Underwood  was  considered  one 
of  the  greatest  wits  in  the  South.  Among  the  stories  related  of 
him  it  is  said  that  he  once  expressed  a  desire  to  die  in  Marietta, 
Ga.,  and  when  asked  the  reason  why  he  replied  that  he  could 
leave  that  place  with  fewer  regrets  than  any  other  on  earth.  He 
is  said  to  have  given  his  son  who  desired  an  appointment  under 
the  governor  of  the  state  the  following  letter  of  recommendation : 
"This  will  be  handed  you  by  my  son,  John,  who  has  the  greatest 
desire  for  office  of  any  one  of  my  acquaintance — and  the  least 
capacity  for  filling  the  same."  The  son  presented  the  letter  and 
when  asked  if  he  had  read  it,  replied,  yes.  The  governor  said 
that  any  man  knowingly  presenting  such  a  letter  could  have  any 
office  in  his  power  to  give.

much  distinguished  for  her  deep  piety.  The  training  of  the  large 
family  of  children  chiefly  devolved  upon  her  as  the  doctor's

Dalton,  Ga.,  where  he  d.  in  1898.  A  tradition  in  this  family  says 
that  William  was  a  cousin  of  Judge  Wm.  H.  Underwood  no.  1077. 
It  is  also  said  that  five  brothers  came  to  Virginia  early  and  their 
descendants  went  to  South  Carolina,  Kentucky,  and  "north" 
and  "east."

bility that  George,  Oscar,  or  Nimrod,  whatever  is  his  correct  name,  was  a  son  of 
Joseph  no.  1076,  and  we  have  placed  him  tentatively  in  that  line. — Ed.

William  J.  Underwood  was  early  separated  from  his  father's 
family  and  lived  in  South  Carolina.  He  was  admitted  to  the

was  inaugurated  I  went  in  heartily  for  the  dissolution,  joined  the 
rebel  army  and  followed  the  fortunes  of  'the  lost  cause'  until  the 
surrender.  At  the  close  I  accepted  the  situation  in  good  faith, 
moved  to  Louisville  and  went  into  business."  In  1872  he  rem. 
to  Belleville,  111.,  and  in  1876  resumed  the  practice  of  law  at  that

Georgia  Conference  of.  the  IMethodist  Episcopal  Church,  South. 
He  has  served  on  stations  and  as  presiding  elder  and  now  (1911) 
lives  in  Atlanta,  Georgia. 

1 119.  Emory  Marvin  Underwood  of  Atlanta,  Ga.,  (son  of

XI.  North  Carolina  Families. 

The  United  States  census  for  1790  shows  that  the  Underwoods 
were  numerous  and  widely  scattered  through  North  Carolina  at 
that  early  date.  From  the  way  in  which  many  of  these  heads  of 
families  are  grouped  about  certain  localities  it  would  appear  that 
they  often  represent  a  common  family  descended  from  a  much 
older  settler  of  the  region.  We  may  note  at  least  several  centers 
which  may  have  given  rise  to  various  branches  of  the  family,  as 
for  instance,  Chatham  county,  Guilford  county,  Nash  county, 
Wilkes  county,  and  Northampton  county.  It  is  not  strange 
that  many  Underwood  families  of  the  Central  West  trace  their 
ancestry  by  tradition  to  North  Carolina,  and  it  is  evident  that  a 
thorough  search  of  North  Carolina  sources  would  bring  to  light 
as  extensive  lines  of  the  family  as  have  been  obtained  from  any 
other  section.  We  have  been  unable  to  get  much  information  of 
the  Underwood  families  in  North  Carolina  prior  to  the  Revolu- 
tion. We  append  a  list  of  the  heads  of  families  as  they  were 
known  to  exist  in  North  Carolina  in  1790.  These  have  been 
arranged  by  localities  so  as  to  suggest  as  far  as  possible  the 
probable  relationship. 


NORTH   CAROLINA   FAMILIES  587 

I.   In  Guilford  County. 

1 120.  Abraham  Underwood.  His  family  apparently  consisted 
of  himself  and  wife,  two  sons  over  16  years  old,  two  sons  under 
16,  and  three  daughters,  and  he  owned  nine  slaves.  He  may 
have  been  the  Underwood  designated  as  no.  1 145  in  these  records 
or  closely  related. 

112 1.  Joshua  Underwood  undoubtedly  is  the  same  as  no.  1146 

n.  In  Chatham  County. 
It  is  known  that  at  least  one  branch  of  the  Delaware  family 
settled  in  Chatham  county  and  it  seems  possible  that  others 
may  have  done  so.  Some  of  the  following  may  therefore  belong 
to  that  family  but  we  have  not  been  able  to  identify  them  with 
certainty. 

11 22.  Hamblin  Underwood.  He  appears  to  have  had  a  family 
of  himself  and  wife,  one  son  over  16  years,  one  son  under  16 
years,  and  three  daughters. 

1123.  Lewis  Underwood.  His  family  may  have  consisted  of 
himself  and  wife,  two  sons  over  16  years,  three  sons  under  16 
years,  and  four  daughters. 

1124.  William  Underwood.  His  family  consisted  probably  of 
himself  and  wife,  and  two  daughters. 

III.  Randolph  County. 
It  seems  probable  that  the  following  were  also  members  of  the 
Delaware  family. 

1125.  Mary  Underwood.  She  was  doubtless  a  widow  with  two 
sons  under  16  years,  and  two  daughters. 

11 26.  Samuel  Underwood.  His  family  apparently  consisted  of 
himself  and  wife,  and  five  sons  under  16  years,  and  two  daughters. 
Could  he  have  been  the  son  of  no.  808? 

IV.  Orange  County. 

1127.  Alexander  Underwood  of  St.  Asaphs  District  owned 
654  acres  of  land  and  seems  to  have  had  a  family  of  only  him- 


588  THE    UNDERWOOD   FAMILY   IN   AMERICA 

self  and  one  son.     It  seems  probable  that  he  was  of  the  Dela-

This  group  also  appears  to  be  distinct  from  any  of  the  others, 
and  the  members  were  all  slaveholders.  They  were,  therefore, 
evidently  not  of  the  Quaker  stock.

The  following  families  trace  chiefly  to  a  North  Carolina  origin 
and  we  may  call  them  the  North  Carolina  families.  While  we 
have  taken  considerable  liberty  in  suggesting  the  lines  of  connec- 
tion, we  have  endeavored  to  indicate  by  question  marks  and 
explanatory  footnotes  where  such  connection  was  assumed 
without  good  evidence.  The  Underwood  manuscript  pertaining 
to  these  lines  was  in  a  very  incomplete  and  fragmentary  state  so 
that  most  of  the  arrangement  as  well  as  the  gathering  of  much  of 
the  material  has  been  done  by  the  editor. 

1145.  Underwood  of  North  Carolina,  (son  of  )  b. 

apparently  about  1740;  m.  and  had  children:

This  list  of  children  is  according  to  Lawrence  Underwood, 
grandson  of  Joshua  above.  He  also  added  that  they  all  emi- 
grated from  North  Carolina  to  east  Tennessee  and  Kentucky, 
and  further  said:  "My  oldest  uncle  Perry  had  a  conversation  in 
Russelville,  Ky.,  many  years  since  with  Joseph  Underwood,  the 
great  lawyer,  and  Joseph  Underwood  said  they  were  own  cou- 
sins." In  this  case  the  above  would  have  been  brothers  of 
Thomas  Undenvood  (no.  1053)  whose  brothers  are  not  of  these 
names  and  are  all  accounted  for  in  the  records  of  the  Virginia 
family.  It  is  more  likely  that  this  family  is  descended  from 
Samuel  Undenvood  who  m.  1738  and  rem.  to  Orange  county,  N. 
C.  Guilford  county  is  the  second  county  west  of  Orange  in  about 
the  center  of  North  Carolina.

ix.  Mary,  b. ;  m.  John  Marene  of  Franklin,  Williamson 

Co.,  Tenn. 

X.  ,  b. ;  d.  when  a  small  child. 

The  family  is  said  by  Lawrence  Underwood  (no.  1149)  to  have 
come  from  Liverpool,  England,  to  near  Philadelphia,  Pa.,  and 
then  to  have  moved  to  North  Carolina.  He  said  that  his  father 
had  about  seven  uncles,  i.  e.,  brothers  to  the  above  Joshua.

Jehu  Underwood  was  a  farmer.  He  first  moved  from  Green- 
briar  county  in  what  is  now  West  Virginia  to  Kentucky  in  1794. 
At  that  time  the  country,  still  overrun  by  hostile  and  fierce 
Indians,  was  dangerous  to  travel  through  and  the  journey  could 
be  made  only  in  strong  companies  and  by  means  of  ox  wagons  and 
pack  horses.  His  second  son,  James,  was  born  on  the  way.  He 
settled  in  the  wilderness  of  Kentucky  near  what  is  now  Owens- 
ville,  in  Bath  county.  As  the  region  was  much  disturbed  and 
unsafe  he  soon  returned  w'ith  his  family  to  Virginia  and  bought 
back  his  original  farm.  He  remained  there  until  1809  and  then 
once  more  ventured  into  the  western  wilderness  and  again  settled 
on  the  same  land  near  Owensville  which  he  had  abandoned  four- 
teen years  before  and  remained  there  until  his  death,  date  un- 
known. His  widow,  Elizabeth  Richards  Underwood,  afterward 
moved  on  with  the  children  into  Missouri  and  d.  in  Louisiana, 
Pike  Co.,  Mo.,  probably  about  1835-1840.

He  spent  his  childhood  in  Greenbrlar  county,  now  West  Virginia, 
living  with  his  grandmother,  but  returned  to  Kentucky  with  his 
father  in  1809.  He  lived  near  Ow^ensville,  Ky.,  until  after  his 
marriage  and  the  births  of  all  of  his  children  except  the  youngest. 
In  1828  he  removed  to  Missouri  and  settled  in  Pike  county  and

history  in  this  country  extends  over  not  more  than  three  or  four

generations.  Undoubtedly  in  most  instances  these  represent 
late  arrivals  from  a  common  and  original  English  stock,  but  it  is

XIII.  Untraced  Families. 

In  the  prosecution  of  this  W'ork,  records  of  many  families  were 
constantly  being  found  which  could  not  be  traced  to  connection 
with  any  other  lines.  Where  the  evidence  pointed  quite  strongly 
to  a  probable  connection  with  some  one  of  the  several  families 
more  fully  treated  in  this  work  we  have  placed  such  records 
immediately  following  the  family  to  which  they  seemed  to  belong 
and  have  indicated  more  or  less  definitely  as  the  facts  seemed 
to  warrant  the  probable  connection  which  such  records  might

have  with  the  preceding  family.  After  distributing  through  the 
work  as  many  of  these  fragmentary  lines  as  possible  by  this 
means,  there  still  remains  a  considerable  number  whose  place  in 
the  genealogy  is  too  uncertain  for  even  such  treatment.  We, 
therefore,  present  them  here  with  such  suggestions  as  we  can 
offer  as  to  their  connections.  It  is  probable  that  nearly  if  not  all 
of  these  are  connected  with  the  larger  families,  but  we  have  not 
the  records  to  show  it.

in  the  Revolutionary  War  and  to  have  received  land  for  his 
service.  He  is  also  said  to  have  had  a  brother  Uriah.  This  last 
statement  suggests  the  possibility  of  some  connection  with 
Daniel  Underwood  no.  1270.  It  is  further  stated,  but  not  with 
certainty,  that  he  came  from  Nova  Scotia  to  Peekskill.  Records 
of  the  births  of  his  children  appear  in  the  Reformed  Dutch  Church

UNTRACED   FAMILIES  66l 

According  to  an  account  written  by  his  grandson,  John  L. 
Underwood  of  Barry,  111.,  in  18S2,  John  L.  Underwood  sailed 
with  Paul  Jones  from  Boston  as  a  "powder  monkey"  at  about 
12  years  of  age.  He  remained  in  the  navy  until  after  the  forma- 
tion of  the  Federal  Government  and  was  with  Decatur  when  he 
burnt  the  Philadelphia  in  the  harbor  of  Tripoli  in  1803.  Accord- 
ing to  the  same  authority,  John  L.  Underwood  was  the  youngest 
of  nine  sons  whose  father  was  killed  in  the  Boston  Massacre  and 
at  the  outbreak  of  the  Revolution  the  sons  at  the  solicitation  of 
their  mother  entered  the  colonial  army.*  He  lived  some  time  in 
New  York  city  and  afterwards  settled  in  Middletown,  N.  J.,  where

is  no  one  by  the  name  of  Underwood  among  them.  Nor  are  there  so  many  brothers

NOTES. 

The  following  are  various  notes  and  memoranda  gathered  in 
the  course  of  this  work  which  are  classified  somewhat  roughly  and 
placed  here  for  preservation  where  they  may  be  of  use  to  some 
future  historian  of  the  family. 

1346.  William  Underwood  of  Baltimore  City,  Md.,  (son  of 

)  b. ;  m.  Mary and  had  children: 

i.  Ruth,  b. . 


ii.  Rhode,  b. . 

William  Underwood  evidently  ran  a  stage  route  in  Baltimore. 
He  made  his  will  6  Feb.,  1800,  and  it  was  admitted  to  probate 
26  Feb.,  1800.  Apparently  William  was  a  second  husband,  as  the 
widow  Mary  in  her  own  will  made  19  May,  1801,  and  proved  23 
April,  1806,  mentions  daughters,  Lydia  Peters  and  Phebte  Peters, 
and  appoints  Henry  Peters  guardian  of  her  daughter,  Rhody 
Undenvood.

will  18  March,  1902,  and  it  was  proved  18  Sept.,  1903.  He  men- 
tions three  children:  Cecilia,  Geraldine,  and  Frank;  also  Susan 
Robinson  of  2048  E.  Huntingdon  St.,  "the  sister  of  my  late  wife." 
The  children  are  apparently  all  minors. 

1348.  James  Underwood  of  Philadelphia,  Pa.,  (son  of ) 

b.  — — ;  m.  Mary and  had  at  least  one  daughter: 

i.  Mary  Ann,  b.  ;  contemplates  marriage  with  Peter 

Freeburger  in  1826,  in  consequence  of  which  she  makes  a  settle- 
ment of  her  property  with  John  Underwood,  likely  a  brother. 

?  ii.  John,  b. . 

James  Undenvood  appears  to  have  m.  (2)  between  1822  and 
1829  Elizabeth .     He  was  a  bricklayer  in  Philadelphia. 

1349.  Samuel  Underwood  of  Northern  Liberties,  Philadelphia

legacies  to  various  parties.  She  was  a  daughter  of  Barbara 
Rumel  and  her  marriage  to  John  Undenvood  was  likely  a  second 
marriage  as  she  says  her  name  was  previously  Margaret  Greer.

and  he  lived  with  a  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Miller  at  West  Farley,  Vt., 
until  1 88 1.  He  is  believed  to  have  had  two  sisters  and  a  brother, 
John,  who  was  in  the  regular  army. 

1355-  William  E.  Underwood,  a  physician  of  Boston,  Mass.,  b. 
about  1826;  m.  Elizabeth  H.  Dana,  nee  Elizabeth  Hopkins 
Saunders,  a  widow  with  one  son  who  seems  to  have  taken  his 
stepfather's  name  and  is  known  as  Edward  Livingston  Under- 
wood. William  E.  Underwood  d.  3  March,  1879.  Edward 
Livingston  Underwood  was  graduated  from  Harvard  University
