Elizabeth Thompson: Nov.12,1776: Andrew Thompson and wife died leaving a four year old daughter. Administration granted to Joseph Thompson and he through ' sloth and indolence' sufffered debts to be laid against the estate although he had plenty assets in his hands, for near two years. No administration granted to his widow, who is of low circumstances and not fit for the task, therefore, for pity for the child, we pray that our friend, Charles Fogg, may be the child's guardian. signed by William Hancock,Jr. (Nov.15,1776 gdnshp granted to Charles Fogg.Elisha Bassett, fellowbonds-man, both of Salem Co.)
Sarah Bassett, wife of Charles, is probably in direct line of descent from Edward I, King of England and his 1st wife, Princess Eleanor, daughter of King Ferdinand III of Castile.Refer to books, THE BASSETT FAMILY by Catherine Soleman Chandler, printed by the Salem Historical Society, and JOHN DAVIS- His Wife, DOROTHEA (GOTHERSON) DAVIS, by Catherine Soleman Chandler and Elmer Garfield Van Name, printed by the Salem Historical Society in Salem, N.J. The one slight problem seems to be the fact that no document has been found for the marriage of John Davis and Dorothea Gotherson. However, there is much to support the fact of this marriage through family records and Shourd's History of Fenwick Colony.
This royal line has been printed in books containing royal ancestry but one generation was left out in the line of Sarah. Dorothea and John had son, Isaac, who married Elizabeth, and Abigail Davis is the daughter of Isaac. Abigail married Elisah Bassett.The line goes thus:
1. Edward I, King of England m. 1st.,Princess Eleanor, daughter of King Ferd-inand III of Castile.
2. Princess Joan D'Arce m. Gilbert De Clare, Earl of Hertford and Gloucester.
3. Lady Eleanor De Clare m. Hugh le Despencer, Earl of Winchester, executed 1326.
4. Lady Isabel le Despencer m. Richard Fitz-Alan, 9th Earl of Arundel.
5. Lady Phillippa Fitz-Alan m. Sir Richard Sergeaux Knt. of Sergeaux,Cornwall.
6. Lady Phillippa Sergeaux m. Sir Robert Pahley, Knight.
7. Sir John Pashley, Knight, m. Lowys, daughter of Sir Thomas Gower.
8. Lady Elysabeth Pashley m. Reginald De Pympe.
9. Ann De Pympe m. Sir John Scott of Scotts Hall and Nettlesteade; Sheriff of Kent, 1528.
10. Sir John Scott of Scotts Hall m. 2nd, Lady Mary, dau. of Sir Bryan Tuke.
11. Sir Charles Scott of Egerton, Kent, m. Lady Jane Wyatt, dau. of Sir Thomas Wyatt who was executed Apr.11,1554, London Tower. She is also of Dutch Royal descent and Aunt of Gov. Francis Wyatt of Virginia.
12.Sir Thomas Scott m. 2nd, Jane Knatchbull, dau. of John Knatchbull.
13. Dorothea Scott m. 1st, Major Daniel Gotherson; m. 2nd ab. 1670, John Hogben. In 1680, she came to Oyster Bay, L.I., N.Y., where her first husband bought land in 1633.
14. Dorothea Gotherson m. John Davis of Pilesgrove Twp.,Salem, N.J.
15. Isacc Davis married Elizabeth ..........
16. Abigail Davis m. Elisha Bassett, Jr., of Salem, N.J.
17. Sarah Bassett m. 2nd, Charles Fogg of Alloways Creek, N.J.
The JOHN DAVIS booklet, of which I spoke, names alternative lines. In this particular line back to Edward I the author mentions Sir Edmund Fitz Alan. He was not in the book from which I copied my information. When I was searching other English books I discovered there was some confusion about Sir John Scott or Sir Reginald Scott. I am sure further research will be most interesting for those concerned.
