Notes for John Enloes:

Per researcher Jean Inlow of Nevada:

Hendrick’s son John died and “left four orphan children”

(two of unknown gender)

(In documents regarding his unexpected death, NO WILL)

I have been able to find out that two of those children were named Abraham and Henry.

One I have confirmed the descendants of (Abraham)

the other (Henry) I have not.

These unplaced names may be descendants of Henry.

Jean Inlow 2/25/2001 from E. E. Enlow’s book, p. 4: an accounting of John’s debts which were paid by the administrators of his estate, was dated 9/8/1703. Therefore John died before this date.

The following information was obtained by Jean Inlow, thru the Maryland State Archives; On June 2, 1714 Henry Enloes, son of John (deceased) was bound to William Wright. Abraham, son of John (deceased) was bound to Charles Simmons and wife until the age of 21.

Abraham is clearly stated in these records to have been 13 on the previous March 20, thus b: March 20, 1701. Henry’s age was 14 which puts his birth about 1700.

 

HENRY³ ENLOES was born in 1700 in Kent County, Maryland. He died in 1794 in Baltimore, Maryland. He married MARY YOUNG. She was born about 1700.

 

ABRAHAM ENLOES was born on 20 Mar 1701. He married ?? ?ENLOES.

 

?? ENLOES was born before 1703.

 

?? ENLOES was born before 1703.

 

HENRY² ENLOES (Hendrick¹) was born about 1679 in Saint Pauls Parrish, Baltimore County. He married MARY ?ENLOES.

 

 

Notes for Henry Enloes:

10/20/2006 email from Jean Inlow

June 22, 1728; On this date in Kent County, Maryland, Henry Inloes or Enlowes, Cordwainer [rope maker], executed a Quit Claim Deed as “heir at law of Hendrick Inloes, Decd, of Baltimore County, Maryland” to a parcel of land in Baltimore County known as Sawyer’s Choice – land which was first taken up by Hendricks Inloes, Sawyer, of Baltimore County.

This Quit Claim Deed makes it abundantly clear that Hendrick Inloes had sold this land – Sawyer’s Choice – 200 acres – while he was still living, that is, it was not in Hendrick’s possession at the time of his death or probate of his will.

The Quit Claim Deed was executed in favor of Josiah Middlemore and his wife Frances. Henry Inloes was paid the sum of Nine Pounds Six Shillings and One Penny to execute the Quit Claim Deed. Mary Inloes, wife of Henry Inloes was examined separately and apart from her husband to determine if she freely and voluntarily agreed to this transaction. The Quit Claim Deed was transmitted from the Clerk of Kent County to the clerk of Baltimore County and it was recorded on December 4, 1728.

(essentials extracted from the lengthy quit claim deed)

 

ABRAHAM³ ENLOW was born on 15 Mar 1726 in Baltimore County, Maryland. He died in Jan 1808 in Finley Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania. He married Jemima Elliot, daughter of James Elliot and Mary Weecks on 28 Mar 1754 in Baltimore County, Maryland. She was born on 30 Nov 1738 in Gunpowder Manor, Baltimore County, Maryland. She died on 18 Feb 1808 in Finley Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania.

 

MARY³ GALLOWAY (Margaret M.² Enloes, Hendrick¹ Enloes) was born about 1669. She died about 1705. She married ROBERT JARMAN. He was born in 1676 in Kent County, Maryland. He died before Mar 1722.

 

SARAH⁴ JARMAN was born about 1713 in Maryland. She died on 11 Aug 1789. She married WILLIAM FITCH. He was born on 19 Sep 1709 in Queen Anne’s Parish, Prince George’s County, Maryland. He died about 1787.

 

ANTHONY³ ENLOES (Abraham², Hendrick¹) was born in 1708 in Baltimore County, Maryland. He died in Oct 1750 in Baltimore County, Maryland. He married Eleanor Cheney, daughter of Thomas Cheney and Eleanor Pindell about 1734. She was born in 1711 in South River Hundred, Anne Arundel County, Maryland. She died in 1738.

 

 

Notes for Anthony Enloes:

Reference: CD #208, Vol. 11, No. 4, page 27, dated Nov. 1970 – MD Gen. Society bulletin

mentions date of death, his will named the children but not the wife, mentions possible unborn child

Anthony’s will is copied in E. E. Enlow’s book on page 7, it was dated 9/12/1750 and probated October, 1750.

Anthony Enloes, son of Abraham, had surveyed for himself, May 22, 1714, “Enloes Rest”. This was patented in

1717.

Charles the Second and To All persons Know Yee that for and in consideration that Anthony Enloe of Baltimore

County in our said Province of Maryland hath due unto him within our said Province the quantity of sixty two

acres of land, -. Wee doe therefore grant unto Anthony Enloe all that Tract of Land Called Enloes Rest lyeing – on

the north side of Middle River Beginning at a bounded red oak standing at the head of a small cove -. – Given

under our Greater Seal at Arms this twenty fifth day of April one thousand seven hundred and seventeen, Witness

our Trusty and well beloved John Hart Esq. Govenour in Chiefe and Keeper of our said Greater Seal at Arms in

our said Province of Maryland.

In 1739 there was: resurveyed for him “Dutch Neck” and about ninety acres added thereto. The whole he gave

the name of “Anthony’s Delight”. His last acquirement of land was in 1748. He is met up till the middle of the

century in other documents. He is found as a surety on a bond in 1723, again in 1743. This same year, 1743, he

and his wife Elinor were witnesses to the will of one William Galloway. This Elinor is supposed to have been the

daughter of Thomas Cheney, one of the Anne Arundel Gentry. Eleanor Cheney was baptized October 18, 1711;

she is mentioned as Elinor Enloes in the will of Thomas Cheney in 1737. Anthony’s will was probated October

10, 1750. Eleanor was appointed executrix giving bond for 500 pounds sterling. During 1751 and 1752 she

submitted several accounts. On January 14, 1752, she married William Grover and the accounts thereafter are

issued in the names of both. The estate was distributed between the widow and the three children, Abraham,

Ellinor and Elizabeth.

——————————————————————————–

1. Abraham ENLOW (prob. son of Abraham ENLOW and Mary DEASON) was born about 1729 based on the

following information (as transcribed in The Descendants of Thomas Pollack):

He served as a private under Capt. David English in 1778 (Draper Manuscript); “he was exempted from future

duty being fifty years of age Oct. 8, 1779 [Ohio Co., VA Courts-Martial].” The citations given are “The Enlow

Family” and “Enlow, Revised” by Raymond Bell published in KEYHOLE Oct. 1983 and Oct. 1989, respectively.

I have not seen the articles or the primary sources. I have been informed that DAR records show his birth year as

1729. That year is plausible considering that: (1) church records show Anthony, son of Abraham and Mary, as

born in August 1731; and (2) he married Nov. 28, 1754 at which time he would have been about age 25.

2. Abraham INLOES (son of Anthony and Eleanor) was born about 1734. “In memory of Abraham INLOES, who

departed this life November 20, 1790, aged 56 years” (Memoirs of the Dead, and Tomb’s Remembrancer, pub.

1806, p. 70). The remains of the deceased were deposited in a Methodist burying ground. (In the back of the

book, perhaps appended in the 1989 reprint, is a map of Baltimore City wherein the only Methodist Church listed

is Dallas Street Methodist Episcopal located in Fells Point. At the time of Abraham’s death, Dallas St. was known

as Strawberry Alley, and the site was on that alley at Fleet St.) He may have been the Abraham INLOES who

gave his age as 46 in connection with a deposition made in Baltimore Co. in 1782 (Maryland Deponents 1634-

1799, citing Chancery Court: Chancery Record, Liber 14, folio 12).

3. Anthony ENLOES (son of Abraham of Hendricks/Henry) was born about 1698. In connection with a

deposition of April 6, 1744, Anthony ENLOWES gave his age as 46 years (Baltimore County, Maryland Deed

Records, Vol. One, by John Davis, 1996, p. 185).

“Enloes Rest” was surveyed for him on 22 May 1714 (Rent Rolls, probably Series C, available on microfilm at

Md. Hist. Soc., Baltimore City), at which time he probably was at least age 16. (One or two of the Enloes books

stated that Anthony was born before 1700.) Furthermore, a birth year of about 1698 is consistent with his father’s

will, wherein Anthony was listed first and presumably was the first born son (and first born child, in my opinion).

I suspect that all the children were named in age order in the will, except possibly Margaret because many of the wills of that time named the sons first, and then the daughters.

Although this message is not in the nature of a query, I wanted to share the information with Enloe/Enlow/Enlows descendants. My primary interest is Elizabeth, wife of Abraham Enloes (born 1707) and John Ensor, and whether she accompanied her son Wm. and brother Guilford to Hyde Precinct, Bath Co., NC by 1731.

 

ABRAHAM⁴ INLOES was born about 1734 in Baltimore County, Maryland. He died on 20 Nov 1790 in Fells Point, Baltimore County, Maryland. He married ELIZABETH ?ENLOES. She died after 1820 in Maryland.

 

ELEANOR ENLOES was born about 1736 in Baltimore, Maryland. She died on 18 Jul 1781 in Baltimore, Maryland. She married James League, son of John League and Mary Jean Noe on 02 May 1759 in St. John’s Church Baltimore, MD. He was born on 14 Feb 1732 in Baltimore, Maryland. He died on 21 Mar 1781 in Baltimore, Maryland.

 

ELIZABETH ENLOES.

 

WILLIAM³ ENLOES (Abraham², Hendrick¹) was born between 1706-1707. He died before 1738. He married Mary Silverthorn, daughter of Guilford Silverthorn and Jean Jacob about 1721. She was born about 1700 in Hyde County, North Carolina. She died about 1778 in Hyde County, North Carolina.

 

 

Notes for William Enloes:

It will be remembered that Abraham II, son of Hendrick, had three sons besides Anthony; one of these was

William. He purchased land in Carolina in 1731.

Presumably William Inloe had been in Carolina for a while preceding this for the document speaks of “said Inloe

now present dwelling house”. He disposed in 1742 of the 50 acre tract on Middle River in Maryland, left him by

his father, to William Right (apparently the same William Wright mentioned in the Maryland documents).

NORTH CAROLINA, BEAUFORT COUNTY

TO ALL TO WHOM THESE presents come I William Inlose of the County of Hyde in the province: Yeoman

Send Greetings.

KNOW YE that I the said William Inlose for & in consideration of the sum of sixty pounds lawful Bills of North Carolina to me in hand paid, before the ensealing & delivery of these presents by William Right of Baltimore County in the province of Maryland Gent: – do fully, freely & absolutely give, grant, bargain, sell, alien, enforced, convey & confirm unto the said William Right his heirs and assigns a tract or pacel of land, lying in Baltimore County upon the middle River and — Creek, in the neck, between the afsd River & Creek, in the afsd province of Maryland

IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand & affixed my seal this first day of September anno Dom., 1742.

Why did William Inloes leave Maryland? The most likely explanation is that he sought new land for his tobacco raising. Many in Maryland and Virginia were finding their soils depleted, themselves ruined because tobacco was being produced more cheaply elsewhere and brought in. Furthermore Carolina was the only province in English America where cattle could be wintered without expense or labor.

William’s land purchase in Carolina was witnessed by Gilbert Silverthorne.

We gather from the will of Gilford Silverthorne, February 5, 1737, taken from the Secretary of States Office, Raleigh (all wills being recorded there until 1760) that William married his daughter. Gilford Silverthorne speaks of his son John, his grandson Abraham Enlows, his granddaughter Elizabeth Enlows, his daughter Mary, his son Sawastin, his wife Jean. William had other children than Abraham and Elizabeth, one being named Sebastin.

Abraham Enlow purchased August 28, 1750, for twenty five pounds one hundred acres “on the south side of Tar River” from Joana Thomas of Boston, “widow and sole executrix of the last will and testament of John Raulins, decd., late of Beaufort County in North Carolina”. This deed was registered in Beaufort County at the September Court, 1754. John Hardie “of the County of Beaufort & Province aforesaid” for seventy five pounds sold Abraham Enlo “of the County and province aforesaid” on March 13, 1758, a parcel of land and plantation “on the So Side of Pamptico River joining on Enloes beginning at a hickory on the river bank & down the river – being part of a tract of land taken up by John Hardie containing 640 acres as by patent dated 21 Mar. 1742. by estimation 220 acres more or less” .

If we interpret these land holdings properly, then William the father had his plantation in Hyde County north of Pamlico River, east of Pungo, and Abraham, the son, his on the south side of Pamlico River, nearer to New Bern.

Abraham’s will, executed September 2, 1774, and proved in Court in June, 1775, bequeathed to his brothers William and Sebastin each one shilling sterling; to Zelpha Enloes “one Cow and Calf One Ewe and Lamb to be delivered to her as soon as this Will is in force Likewise one Feather Bed and Furniture after her Mothers death it being the same I lend to her Mother Likewise I give unto her the first child my wench Jin doth have and to be delivered her at eighteen months old”-, to Elizabeth Gladding, daughter of Ann Gladding, one plantation of 160 acres, “my Negro Wench to her and her heirs and assigns after the death of my wife Mary and until the said wench Jin to be hired out according to law and the profits arising there from to be equally divided between my wife, Elizabeth Gladding and Ann Gladding until Ann Gladding marry and after between the said Mary and Elizabeth Likewise I give unto the afsd. Elizabeth six new Pewter Plates and One Pewter Dish Supe, One large Iron Pot Hooks and Iron Tramel, one Feather Bed and Furniture One twelve Bottle Case and Bottles, one chest nine Delph Plates and one Delph Dish one Silver Spoon one Blew Milk Pot, one Third part of my Shu Cattle and Sheep (marked Crap Slip and over bit the left ear)  and my Mare”; to his wife Mary and Ann Gladding the remainder of the estate. His gun, one horse, cattle, sheep and hogs, sufficient to pay his debts, were to be sold.

John Silverthorne was executor. One of the witnesses was Elijah Fortescue.

Mary Inloes in her own will, made about 1778, gave Elizabeth Gladding “one Hand Mill, one Linning Wheel, two Puter Dishes, two Puter Basins, four Puter Plates one Box Iron to all my Cattle to all my Hogs Chests to one Iron Pot and Pot Hooks” and “all the remainder of my living that I have not already given both within doors and without”. She gave Ann Fortescue and Zelpher Walls each one Shilling.

Apparently, therefore, Ann was a daughter of Abraham and Mary Enloes, marrying first a Gladding, and secondly after Abraham’s death, a Fortescue. Elizabeth must have been the unmarried grand-daughter. Zelpha, the other daughter, married a Walls. There is no mention of male issue.

 

Notes for Mary Silverthorn:

She died in Feb 1789 in York County, Sourth Carolina.

 

 

Notes for Abraham Enloes:

The date of birth for Abraham II was extracted from web site; http://kinnexions.com/smlawson/porters.htm, listing the children of Samuel Porter & Sarah Byers, one of whom was Violet, who married the son, Isaac Enloe.

 

Notes for Mary Deason:

BIOGRAPHY – Mary Deason, daughter of William and Mary, was born ca. 1711/12 in Baltimore Co. She

married Abraham Enloes, another lessee of Gunpowder Manor, in 1730 in St. John’s Parish.

Abraham Enloes was the son of Abraham Enloes and Elizabeth. He was a grandson of Hendrick and Christiana

Enloes. His mother married second John Ensor ca. 1710, as her husband had died in 1709 and she had a son, John

Ensor Jr. in 1711.

In 1733, Abraham Enloes leased Lot #50 on Lord Baltimore’s Gunpowder Manor which consisted of 100 acres

and may have been called at that time “Enloe’s Last Shift.”

In 1743, he leased another 41 acres on the Gunpowder Manor known at the time as “Abraham’s Desire.”

In the Maryland resurvey of the manor, these two leases were known as “Enloe’s Last Shift” (1785). Both leases

were made for the lifetime of his wife, Mary, age 55 (in 1767) and son, Benjamin Enloes, age 28 (in 1767)

although the second lease showed Mary’s age as 56 (in 1767).

Benjamin was actually born 19 Jan. 1738/39 so the 1767 survey was correct on his age.

Abraham Enloes died intestate between July and August of 1758. His wife Mary Deason Enloes administered the

estate per Baltimore County Administration Accounts Liber 6, f. 244.

The account states that the deceased left ten children. Except for four of these children, whose births were recorded in St. John’s & St. George’s Parish, the “ten” children have had to be guessed at from other records.

The first child of Abraham Enloes and Mary, according to the church records was Anthony, born in 1731.

However, this son may have died in infancy since Benjamin Enloes is shown as Abraham’s heir in his lease of Lot #50 of the Gunpowder Manor in 1733.

(Note: Benjamin, born in 1738/39, was probably added to the lease at a later date since he was not alive when his father first leased the property in 1733.]

Thomas Enloes is shown on most lists of genealogists as a son of Abraham with the speculation he was born ca.

1729. This date, of course, could mean he was born before the marriage of Abraham and Mary.

Sometime after her husband’s death in 1758, Mary Enloes probably joined her Deason relatives in York County, South Carolina. She left a will there and one source said she died in 1774 while another said, 1789. She only named directly one child in her will as a daughter: Christen, or Christiana.

The children of Abraham Enloes and Mary Deason accepted thus far:

1)Thomas Enloes (b. ca. 1729) m. Sarah James (b. 10 Feb. 1733, daughter of William) 2 June 1754.

2)Anthony Enloes b. August, 173 1. No other info.

3)Avarilla Enloes b. 1734 m. Robert Garner 3 May 1757 (Note: the record shows Robert Gardener).

4)Benjamin Enloes b. 19 Jan. 1738/39 d. prob. SC. No other info.

5)Sarah Enloes b. 16 Feb. 1740.

6)Enoch Enloes b. ca. 1741 d. 1799 York Co. SC m. 1) Sprusebanks; 2) Jane McCord.

7)Isaac Enloes b. 13 Feb. 1745 (Enloes Bible) d. 1819 York Co. SC, m. Violet Porter.

8)Deason Enloes. No other info.

9) Christen Enloes (in mother’s will).

10)Potter Enloes. No other info.

11)John Enloes. No other info.

[Note by RBE: this is one too many children; either Potter or John must have been the child of some other parents.]

The final account of Abraham Enloes’ estate in 1758 in Baltimore Co. not only shows his wife, Mary Deason Enloes as his administratrix but shows the appraisers of the estate to be William Ensor and James Elliott.

James Elliott was the father of Jemima and Mary Elliott who married respectively Abraham Enloes and Henry Enloes, supposed sons of Abraham Enloes and Mary Deason Enloes.

(note by RBE – this assumption was not correct, this Abraham and Henry were actually sons of John Enloes, who also left two unnamed orphans at his death) The fact that James Elliott appraised the estate of Abraham Enloes adds a bit of support to the supposition that James Elliott was the father of Jemima and Mary Elliott.

Also of interest is that William Ensor Sr. was security for William Ensor Jr. and Charles Deason as shown on the Baltimore Co. Tax List of 1773 for Gunpowder Upper Hundred.

The only Deasons in Baltimore Co. as late as 1773 seem to be Enoch Deason and this Charles Deason.

Mary Deason Enloes, as Mary Enlow, left a will in York Co. SC which, according to Col. Thomas A. Enloe (now deceased), was probated Feb. 1789. South Carolina Wills. an index compiled by Martha Lou Houston, (originally published in 1939), reprinted by Genealogical Publishing Co. Baltimore, 1970, shows the will may be found as part of the collections of the University of South Carolina Library, Columbia, SC (1939).

The reference is given as Vol. 1, date 1770-1815, p. 3. Her will referred to a daughter, Christen, or Christiana, and “to burial at the discretion of my children.”

 

The Will of Mary (Deason) Enloe, dated 8/28/1774

(source is Will Book A – 1786 – 1799; located at hr York County Courthouse, York, SC and copied November

1960)

In the name God, Amen. The 28th day of August, 1774, I , widow Enloe of the County Craven and Province of

South Carolina, being very sick and weak in body but of perfect mind and memory thanks to be given to God

therefore, calling to the mind the Mortality of my body and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die,

Do make and ordain this my last will and testament; that is principally and first of all, I give and recommend my

Soul into the hands of the Almighty God that gave it, and my body I recommend to the earth to be buried in

decent Christian burial at the discretion of my children and friends, nothing but at the general Resurrection I shall

receive the same again by the mighty power of God, and as touching such Worldly Estate where it hath pleased

God to clefs me with, I give, Demise, and Dispose of the same in the following manner and form.

I give and bequeath to my younger daughter, Christian Enloe, all and what I have at my death; I do hereby

Notes for Abraham Enlow:

DOB- marriage & DOD are from 5/2/2001 letter from Mrs. Slatterly

Per Jean Inlow, this Abraham was really the son of Henry Enloe of Kent County, Maryland, and the grandson of

John Enloe who died and left 4 orphans. That would make Hendricks Enloes his gg-grandfather.

The Abraham that married Jemima Elliott was born in 1726, not 1701. this is two different Abrahams.

John that died and left 4 orphan children, had two sons, one by the name of Henry b: 1700 and one by the name

Abraham b: 1701.

Henry b: 1700 had a son named Abraham b: 1726 that married Jemima Elliott.

I realize that people do show an Abraham as the son of Abraham and Mary Deason. This is not correct.

Since you have the books by Col. Thomas and E. E. Enlow, you should be able to see that they either did not

show an Abraham as a child, or questioned it.

Since their research was done, further evidence has been found that Abraham and Mary Deason did not have a

son named Abraham or Henry.

Also it is in church records the “Henry of Kent” b: 1700 had a son named Abraham born in 1726 and Abraham’s

marriage is shown in the works of Fred Inlow, marrying Jemima Elliott.

There are so many Abraham’s and Henry’s that it does get confusing. I hope this helps you. Let me know.

History of Washington County, Pennsylvania

 

Early Settlements.—Abraham Enlow was among the first of the settlers in what is now East Finley township. There is little doubt that he was here as early as 1775. He settled on Wheeling Creek, where he built a block-house for the protection of himself and family from the Indians. His first land purchase was of a tract containing four hundred acres, called “Big Flat,” situated on the waters of Big Wheeling Creek, which was granted to him Feb. 21, 1788, and surveyed March 30th following. On March 26, 1788, “Sugar Stick Run,” a tract of three hundred and ninety-one acres, was warranted to him, and surveyed April 26th of the same year. Again, in 1790, he received a warrant for one hundred acres of land, which was not surveyed until June 9, 1799. Abraham Enlow’s sons were five, —Elliott, Luke, Henry, William, and Michael. His daughters, four in number, were Mrs. Thomas Hill, Mrs. James St. Clair, Mrs. Wolf, and Mrs. Jeremiah Post. Michael Enlow married and emigrated to Monroe County, Ohio; Elliott Enlow married a Miss Atchison, and they had a large family of children. Their sons were three, —Henry, John, and Gideon.

Luke, second son of Abraham Enlow, married and died near where he was born, leaving a large family, six sons and three daughters. All except Ruth, who married John Montgomery, emigrated to Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. William Enlow, another of Abraham’s sons, married a Miss Wolf, who died in this township a quarter of a century ago. They had four children, —Abraham, Elliott, Luke, and Peter. Abraham, Jr., and Peter emigrated to Ohio, and Luke Enlow, Jr., died in Washington County. Of this branch of the Enlow family, Elliott, Jr., is the only one now living. He still owns a part of the old homestead, and another portion is the property of William McCleary.

Henry Enlow was one of Abraham Enlow’s sons, and may be termed one of the original settlers, as he was one of the oldest children. He married a Miss Atchison. Of his numerous family the sons all emigrated to Ohio, and the daughters married and died in Washington County. From Ruth Enlow, daughter of Luke, and granddaughter of old Abraham Enlow, have sprung a numerous family. She married Hugh Montgomery, son of James Montgomery, who, Oct. 21, 1784, warranted the tract of land called “Tragical,” containing four hundred acres, situated on the Robinson Fork of Wheeling Creek, and which was surveyed to him Dec. 30, 1784. Hugh and Ruth Montgomery had eleven children. James, the eldest, went to Ohio; John settled in East Finley township and died here; William resides in Washington borough, where he has for several years been a justice of the peace, and is at present proprietor of a hardware-store; Jesse died in this county; Alexander resides in this township on the old Montgomery homestead; and Cyrus lives on an adjoining farm. The daughter, Susan Montgomery, married John Thornberry; Annie was the wife of William A. Sprowls; Rebecca became Mrs. Martin Post; Mary married Simeon Sprowls; and Phebe, who married Henry Martin, resides in Ohio.

 

Notes for Jemima Elliot:

The Elliot family were early settlers living on leased property in “Gunpowder Manor” , Maryland.

Notes for Elizabeth ?Enloes:

This Abraham we shall call Abraham of Fell’s Point from Fell’s Point in Baltimore to which he moved in 1768. From him stems the later Inloes living in the Maryland metropolis. Among these, the most distinguished was Dr.

Henry Augustus Inloes, a grandson, 1811-1874. The will of this fourth Abraham, signed November 18, and probated December 28, 1790, is of special interest. First, it reveals him as an owner of books; secondly, it shows that he was the first of the Maryland Enloes to be a slave owner; thirdly, it demonstrates that he did not believe, at least as he approached death, in bondage but wished to free his slaves; fourthly, it lists his ten children; fifthly, it shows that he definitely adopted the spelling Inloes rather than Enloes. This Abraham Inloes was born in Maryland in 1734 and died December 28, 1790. Abraham’s will is listed in E.E. Enlow’s book on page 10. This will names his wife and 10 children, the text follows:

I Abraham Inloes of Baltimore County and State of Maryland being sick and weak in body but of sound mind, memory and understanding, considering the certainty of death and the uncertainty of the time there fore and being

desirous to settle my wordly affairs and thereby be the better prepared to leave this world when it shall please God to call hence, do make my last will and Testament in manner following: that is to say first and Principally I commit my soul Into the hands of Almighty God and my body to the Earth to be decently buried at the discretion of my Executrix and Executor hereinafter named. It is my will and desire that all my Just debts and funeral expenses be first paid.

Whereas my daughter, Elizabeth Leange has had already that part of my Estate, which I designed to give her not withstanding, it is my will and desire that in case she should hereafter become a widow, that my Executrix and

Executor pay unto her during her widowhood, Yearly and every year, the sum of three pounds current money and I hereby charge my real and personal Estate with the payments thereof. I give and bequeath unto my son Joshua my watch and all my Books that I shall have at my decease. Whereas my son in law Thomas Harrison, has built a house on a Lot of Ground on Fellspoint belonging to me, and whereas I have never made him a title thereto, my will and desire is that my Executrix and Executor do in a

reasonable time after my decease on the request of my son in-law afsign over unto him, his heirs, executors, Administrators or Afaigna all my right and title claim end Interest to thirty feet of Ground on which the house

aforesaid stand on, fronting on Ann Street, running back half to Arquile Alley. The said Harrison or his afaigna paying a proportionate part of the original rent reserved on the said Lott of Ground be hereafter appraised and the

value thereof to go in discharge of so much of what I shall give unto my daughter, his wife, out of my Estate. Item- I give and bequeath unto my Loving Wife all my Negroes to wit: Negro Joshua – Sarah – Thomas – and Ann with their Increase to her, her heirs, and afeigna forever as it was my

Intention to have Manumitted my Negroes aforesaid, but by my present Indisposition hinders the same, I have given then to my wife to do with as she pleases. Yet having Confidence in her that she will be a sufficient deed of Manumifsion make them free after my decease and as I look upon them as no part of my Estate, my will and desire is that if any of my children hereinafter named should or shall hereafter lay any claim to them or any part of their appraisement by suit or other ways disturb my wife or my executor or the slaves themselves in claiming them or any of them or any part of them or any of them. Then it is my will that such child or children shall take no part

of my Estate hereinafter bequeathed unto them and that their part, his or her part, so offending shall be divided amoungst my other children who obey and keep to this my Will. Item – I give and bequeath unto my Loving Wife the One third part of my personal Estate. Item – I give and bequeath unto my ten children to wit: Anthony – Abraham – Elizabeth – Joshua – James – John –

Eleanor – Temperance -William – Margaret , to be equally divided amoungst them share and share alike. I lastly constitute and appoint my loving wife Elizabeth and my son Joshua, Executrix and Executor of this my

Last Will and Testament revoking all former will or wills by me made.

2. Abraham INLOES (son of Anthony and Eleanor) was born about 1734.

“In memory of Abraham INLOES, who departed this life November 20, 1790, aged 56 years”

(Memoirs of the Dead, and Tomb’s Remembrancer, pub. 1806, p. 70).

The remains of the deceased were deposited in a Methodist burying ground.

(In the back of the book, perhaps appended in the 1989 reprint, is a map of Baltimore City wherein the only

Methodist Church listed is Dallas Street Methodist Episcopal located in Fells Point. At the time of Abraham’s

death, Dallas St. was known as Strawberry Alley, and the site was on that alley at Fleet St.)

He may have been the Abraham INLOES who gave his age as 46 in connection with a deposition made in

Baltimore Co. in 1782 (Maryland Deponents 1634-1799, citing Chancery Court: Chancery Record, Liber 14,

folio 12).

Notes for William Enloes:

Reference; In Old Kentucky – web site

A deed recorded in Craven County in part reads:

This indenture made this fourth day of May 1792 between Anthony Inloe and William Ross of Craven County and in the Town of Newbern Witnesseth, that the said Anthony Inloe for and in consideration of the sum of two Hundred pounds currency – both given granted bargained, sell and deliver unto him the said William Ross,-two lots or parcels of land situated lying and being in the town of Newbern, and are known and distinguished in the plan of said town by lots No. 39 and 40-together with the front belonging to the same which lots are bounded South by the rivers Easterly by German Street Northwardly by lot No. 355 and westerly by lot No 41 -. Anthony Inloes (Seal)

June 25, 1785, Antoni Intose or Antony Instoe (it is spelled both ways in the same document) married Rhody Cheyney.

June 10, 1787, Antony or Anthony Inloes married Elizabeth Cheney.

June 10, 1789, Abraham Inloes married Ann Cheney.

Evidently the Inloe men of Craven County went in for June weddings and for women of the same family. It will be remembered that Anthony, son of Abraham, son of Hendrick, in Maryland married Elinor Cheney.

December 24, 1798, in Craven County Nancy Inlow married John Carter. Since these documents are all similar we shall reproduce only one.

State of North Carolina, Craven County.

Know all men by these presents, That we, Abraham Inloes Anthony Inloes are held and firmly bound unto his Excellency Saml. Johnston, Esquire, Captain-General and Commander-in-Chief in and over said State, in the sum of 500 pounds current money; to be paid to the said Governor, his successors and assigns. To the which payment, well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and administrators jointly and severally, firmly by these presents. Sealed with our seals and dated this 10 day of June A. D. 1789. The condition of the above obligation is such, That whereas, the abount bounden Abraham Inloes hath made application for a license for Marriage intended to be had and solemnized between him and Ann Cheney of the County aforesaid, Now therefore in case it shall appear at any time hereafter, that there is any lawful cause to obstruct the said Marriage, then -the above obligation to be void, otherwise to remain in full force and virtu Signed and Delivered in presence of Abraham Inloes (Seal) Who were this Anthony, this Abraham, this Nancy? We do not know, but suggest that they were two brothers and a sister belonging to the fifth generation of Enloes – Inloes. Their location would indicate that they were derived from the branch of the family that settled in Hyde and Beaufort counties. Since of the known sons of William Inloes the older, Abraham has already been disposed of, and Sevastin, as we shall see later, removed to Georgia, it would seem most likely that these three were children of William the younger, nephews and niece of Abraham of Beaufort County.

 

When they lived in New Bern the greatest days of the city had passed. For a while during the Revolution Tryon’s palace remained closed but afterwards it was used as a school. In the cellar was stored a quantity of wood and hay. Here one day came a negro woman hunting eggs, carrying a pine torch. All except one wing of the magnificent structure went up in flames.

 

ANTHONY⁵ ENLOES was born about 1760. He married (1) RHODY CHEYNEY on 10 Jun 1787 in Craven County, North Carolina. He married (2) ELIZABETH CHENEY on 10 Jun 1789.

 

ABRAHAM ENLOES was born about 1760. He died before 1798. He married Ann Cheney on 10 Jun 1789 in Craven County, North Carolina.

 

NANCY ENLOES was born about 1770. She married John Carter on 24 Dec 1798 in Craven County, North Carolina.

 

ABRAHAM⁴ ENLOES (William³, Abraham², Hendrick¹) was born before 1737. He died before Jun 1775 in Hyde County, North Carolina. He married MARY ?ENLOES.

 

 

Notes for Abraham Enloes:

Abraham Enlow purchased August 28, 1750, for twenty five pounds one hundred acres “on the south side of Tar River” from Joana Thomas of Boston, “widow and sole executrix of the last will and testament of John Raulins, decd., late of Beaufort County in North Carolina”. This deed was registered in Beaufort County at the September Court, 1754. John Hardie “of the County of Beaufort & Province aforesaid” for seventy five pounds sold Abraham Enlo “of the County and province aforesaid” on March 13, 1758, a parcel of land and plantation “on the So Side of Pamptico River joining on Enloes beginning at a hickory on the river bank & down the river – being part of a tract of land taken up by John Hardie containing 640 acres as by patent dated 21 Mar. 1742. by estimation 220 acres more or less”

.

If we interpret these land holdings properly, then William the father had his plantation in Hyde County north of Pamlico River, east of Pungo, and Abraham, the son, his on the south side of Pamlico River, nearer to New Bern. Abraham’s will, executed September 2, 1774, and proved in Court in June, 1775, bequeathed to his brothers William and Sebastin each one shilling sterling; to Zelpha Enloes “one Cow and Calf One Ewe and Lamb to be delivered to her as soon as this Will is in force Likewise one Feather Bed and Furniture after her Mothers death it being the same I lend to her Mother Likewise I give unto her the first child my wench Jin doth have and to be delivered her at eighteen months old”-, to Elizabeth Gladding, daughter of Ann Gladding, one plantation of 160 acres, “my Negro Wench to her and her heirs and assigns after the death of my wife Mary and until the said wench Jin to be hired out according to law and the profits arising there from to be equally divided between my wife, Elizabeth Gladding and Ann Gladding until Ann Gladding marry and after between the said Mary and Elizabeth Likewise I give unto the afsd. Elizabeth six new Pewter Plates and One Pewter Dish Supe, One large Iron Pot Hooks and Iron Tramel, one Feather Bed and Furniture One twelve Bottle Case and Bottles, one chest nine Delph Plates and one Delph Dish one Silver Spoon one Blew Milk Pot, one Third part of my Shu Cattle and Sheep (marked Crap Slip and over bit the left ear) and my Mare”; to his wife Mary and Ann Gladding the remainder of the estate. His gun, one horse, cattle, sheep and hogs, sufficient to pay his debts, were to be sold.

John Silverthorne was executor. One of the witnesses was Elijah Fortescue.

Mary Inloes in her own will, made about 1778, gave Elizabeth Gladding “one Hand Mill, one Linning Wheel, two Puter Dishes, two Puter Basins, four Puter Plates one Box Iron to all my Cattle to all my Hogs Chests to one Iron Pot and Pot Hooks” and “all the remainder of my living that I have not already given both within doors and without”. She gave Ann Fortescue and Zelpher Walls each one Shilling. Apparently, therefore, Ann was a daughter of Abraham and Mary Enloes, marrying first a Gladding, and secondly after Abraham’s death, a Fortescue. Elizabeth must have been the unmarried grand-daughter. Zelpha, the other daughter, married a Walls. There is no mention of male issue.

Here’s all I know to date concerning the Robert Gardner that I posted previously. I am unsure as to how it may connect with you. An interesting note: Mary Deason and Abraham Enloes also had a daughter named Sarah, of whom I am still attempting to research with regard to her marriage/s. I mention this only in response to your Robert Gardner’s link to Sally, surname unknown.

Abarillo Enloes was born in Baltimore County, Maryland on May 5, 1735 and she died in 1792 in York County, South Carolina at 57 years of age. { St. John Parish records, Baltimore County, Maryland give her birth year as 1734. (Index to Register of St. John’s Parish 1696-1788, Hall of Records, #1063.52, 75 R.); St. John’s and St. George’s Parish Registers, Baltimore and Harford Counties, 1696-1851, Henry C. Peden, Jr., 1987, Family Line Publication, Silver Spring, Maryland, record page 100.} She was the daughter of Abraham Enloes and Mary Deason and sister of Benjamin Enlow. Her name has been spelled in a variety of ways including Ambrello and Ambrella. She married Robert Gardener on May 3, 1757 in Maryland. {Spelled as Avarilla; Index to Register of St. John’s Parish 1696-1788, Hall of Records, #1063.52, 49; Maryland Marriages 1634-1777, compiled by Robert Barnes, Genealogical Publishing Company, Incorporated, Baltimore, Maryland, 1978, page 67; St. John’s and St. George’s Parish Registers, Baltimore and Harford Counties, 1696-1851, Henry C. Peden, Jr., 1987, Family Line Publication, Silver Spring, Maryland, record page 215.}

On July 3, 1764, Benjamin Enlow petitioned for 300 acres on the waters of Lynches Creek. It is unknown as to whether he received this land, as Benjamin’s brother-in-law, Robert Gardner, also applied for the same tract. { Petitions for Land From the South Carolina Council Journals, volume V: 1757-1765, Brent H. Holcomb, SCMAR, Columbia, South Carolina, © 1998, page 176, meeting of Tuesday PM 3 July 1764.}

Beginning in 1775, land was granted to persons coming into the province of South Carolina on a ‘headright’ of 100 acres for the head of household and another 50 acres for each additional person in the household.

On July 12, 1766, Benjamin Enlow proved a land deed for 150 acres of land in Craven County on Faulkenborough’s branch on behalf of Robert Garner, who may have been Robert Gardner, his brother-inlaw.

Benjamin Deason was witness. { Lancaster County, South Carolina Deed Abstracts 1787-1811, Brent H. Holcomb, Southern Historical Press, Easley, South Carolina, 1981, page 34: “Pp. 144-145: 5 & 6 Aug 1765, William Sheperd of Craven County, planter, and wife Jemimah, to Robert Garner of same, planter (lease s5, releas £ 200)… 150 A granted to sd Sheperd 7 May 1762 ib Falkenborough’s branch… William Sheperd (W), Jemimah Shepard (X), Wit: Benjamin Deason (X), Benjamin Enlow (B).

He married (2) MARGARET MCCORD, daughter of James McCord and Jane ?McCord about 1790 in York County, Sourth Carolina. She was born about 1765.

 

 

Notes for Enoch Enloe:

There is little concrete evidence to prove Enoch was the father of Abraham Enloe of Rutherford Co., NC – however after finding marriage records and deed transfers, it seems obvious that Anthony Enloe was the 1st to

migrate to Rutherford Co., and soon five more brothers & sisters plus Enoch followed. One of these was his son Abraham.

Upon further reading of Col. Thomas Enloe’s notes, the following was extracted:

“Research since 1947 strongly suggests that when Enoch Enloe of York Co., SC married the 2nd time, his first

group of children were in their older teens and upwards. Resenting a new wife of their own approximate age, the

older children moved over into the adjacent Rutherford Co., NC.

They were Agnes, Christan(f), Sarah, Ezekial, David, Anthony, and Abraham.”

(Note by RBE: this would be Abraham Enloe III )

per Col. T. A. Enloe

“the Agnes Inlow as shown in the 1790 NC census is believed to be the older sister of Abraham Enloe(III) of

western NC, along with brothers and sisters, Agnes is shown as the head of household.

per Col. T.A. Enloe –

“The first documentary evidence of Enoch in SC is in 1783, when he witnessed Isaac’s claim for Revolutionary

War Service. Later, on September 11, 1784, Enoch himself was paid 9 Pounds Sterling for Revolutionary War

Service. In 1790, Enoch appears in the 1790 SC census, as Enoch Enlow of Camden District, York County.

(note by RBE – this payment of 9 pounds sterling has been accepted by the DAR as proof of Enoch’s service)

per Col. T. A. Enloe

“On May 11, 1873, Isaac Enloe was paid 181 Pounds Sterling for service in the Revolutionary War, and for the

loss of a horse, saddle, and rifle gun; in an engagement called General Sumpter’s Chace, in the year 1780.

This claim incidentally was witnessed by Enoch Enloe, and a Nathaniel Porter.

Two pieces of documentary material serve to contradict the wide spread tradition among the Enloe people that

Isaac and Enoch were school teachers: Isaac could not write his own name inasmuch as his claim for

Revolutionary service and his will were both signed by by showing his mark or making an X as referred to today.

All of my data indicates Isaac was a farmer, and his will indicates he must have been a good one.”

Witnessed by Robert Kennedy, Abraham Enloe, William Wallace, all of York County

(they were witnesses to the first transaction as Samuel Porter died prior to Feb 1786 and had to reafirm this)

Robert Kennedy and William Wallace were son-in-laws of Samuel [Porter].

This is either Abraham of Rutherford Co, NC or an unknown Abraham.

The only thing this now throws into question is Abrahams birthdate; even then you had to be of age to witness or

buy land, which would make Abraham born more like 1764 than 1770.

Benjamin, 1787, 1794 appointed constable, 1796

Enoch Enloe and wife vs James Miller 6 Feb 1795

(dismissed because plantiff died)

This last entry would establish Enoch’s date of death to be before Feb 6, 1795. This is possible as his two youngest sons were born before that date.

Notes for Isaac Enloe:

per Col. T. A. Enloe

“On May 11, 1873, Isaac was paid 181 Pounds Sterling for service in the Revolutionary War, and for the loss of a horse, saddle, and rifle gun; in an engagement called General Sumpter’s Chance, in the year 1780. This claim incidentally was witnessed by Enoch Enloe, and a Nathaniel Porter. – – – Two pieces of documentary material serve to contradict the wide spread tradition among the Enloe people that Isaac and Enoch were school teachers: Isaac could not write his own name inasmuch as his claim for Revolutionary service, and his will, were both signed by showing his mark or making an X as referred to today. – – – All of my data indicates Isaac was a farmer, and his will indicates he must have been a good one.”

Charlotte: I will have to pull out my records on the maps I have obtained regarding the Enloe’s in England. They

are in storage at present, since I recently moved. But I assure you these maps show Enloe’s in north and

northeastern England Circa:1500’s.

Secondly, the Coat of Arms has been circulated elsewhere, other than Halbert’s, which I too believe to be a hoax,

but I believe there IS a coat of arms for the Enloes. I will do my best to find the direct source in my files as soon

as possible for you.

Third, and most crucial to your debate of Enloe English or Scotch descent, is the fact that my direct ancestor,

Isaac Enloe, stated on his original records (marriage, census, and death records), that he was born in Scotland.

These records are easily located in South Carolina Genealogy libraries and through genealogy societies. They are

also listed in Thomas Enloe’s book, and E.E. Enloe’s book on the heritage of the Enloe’s, and Dr. I.N. Enloe’s

research. The Enloe’s of South Carolina were of Presbyterian religion, founded in Scotland. Isaac Enloe carried a

Presbyterian bible printed in Glasgow, Scotland, and Asahel Enloe’s (his son) presbyterian bible, which probably

was Isaac’s originally, is located in the DAR (Daughter’s of American Revolution) Genealogy library in

Washington, D.C.

The idea that Hendricks Enloes of Baltimore, Maryland was Dutch comes from the fact that he came over to

America on a ship loaded with Dutch people, from the Netherlands. Ship records are in the National Archives.

I still have seen no real (original)documentary evidence that Joris Kindlesson was the actual father of any

American Enloes/Inloes/Enlows/Inlows (and any of the other numerous spellings of the name). The only place

where I have seen this Joris mentioned is in a submission of family genealogy records listed in the LDS

(Mormon) Ancestry files. There is NO documentary information listed as to where this Joris Kindlesson shows up

on any original paperwork of any kind that can be substantiated.

I would like to see documentary proof that both Joris Kindlesson is linked to Hendricks Enloes on original papers,

and that any of the Maryland and New England Enloes are linked to the South Carolina and North Carolina

Enloes, because Abraham Enloes/Mary Deason of Baltimore, Maryland are supposed to be the parents of Isaac

Enloe and two brothers of York, South Carolina. However, in 25 years of research all over this country, I have not

seen any original documentary paperwork such as marriage, birth, death, or census records that link Abraham

Enloes of Maryland to Isaac Enloes of South Carolina directly. I HAVE seen a few census records of the

Abraham Enloes family, listing his family by name, including his children, and there is no Isaac Enloes there. By

the date of the census record, and his birth date, he should have been listed as a child.

All of these supposed links are hearsay, as far as I am concerned. I believe some well-intentioned amatuer

genealogist researched Enloes, and having found one by the same name spelling in Maryland, assumed things,

and linked Isaac Enloe, Enoch Enloe, and Nathaniel Enloe of York, South Carolina, to this Abraham Enloes of

Maryland, simply because the dates seem to be close for a father /sons relationship. Once this paperwork made its

circulation, many others simply grabbed the information as fact, and have continued the potentially erroneous myth.

I REPEAT, to my knowledge, there is NO legitimate documentation that shows a connection on both counts: Joris

Kindlesson/Hendricks Enloes – and – Abraham Enloes/Isaac Enloe. Yet many people are circulating this

connection as fact. I challenge anyone to produce a legitmate original document that shows this relationship

clearly. then I will believe.

Pat Enloe Deutsch

6/15/2006 Note by RBE

Recent DNA test results show there is a very high probability that Isaac Enloe, Enoch Enloe, Abraham Enloe of

Western NC, and Hendricks Enloes of Gunpowder Manor in Colonial Maryland were all closely related.

My conclusions from these data, combined with the documented evidence found to date:

1. Abraham was the son of Enoch

2. Enoch & Isaac were brothers

3. Hendricks Enloes was their MRCA

4. Isaac was not an original immigrant from Scotland

Isaac served in the militia in 1780. They were married about 1770(see note below). Violet was mentioned in

brother, DAvid’s will of 1812 and sister-in-law, Jane Byers Porter in 1818. She was also mentioned in father,

Samuel’s will, and brother Nathaniel’s will. The children I have as Asahal, Nathaniel, Gilbert N., Elizabeth,

Following the death of Abraham around July or August of 1758, his wife, Mary, and many of their children migrated to York County, South Carolina to join her Deason relatives. Their son, Deason Enloes, enlisted in the Revolutionary War for the 3rd South Carolina Regiment as a Private on July 7, 1782 under Captain Joseph Wharley, commanded by Colonel William Thomson. He was discharged following twelve months of service on July 8, 1783. Deason applied for a pension on June 24, 1818 while living in Richland District of South Carolina. His son, Jacob, made an affidavit on July 29, 1853 from Greenville District of South Carolina. Deason received £16 6 shillings 8 pence Sterling for his service.
