    Historical Notes Six Generations of the Ivey family in Virginia and related Mason, Thelaball, Langley & Blanche Families

    Forward
    This history was originally compiled under the assumption that David Anderson Ivey, s/o Jesse Ivey and Sarah Anders/o Sussex County, Virginia was the Anderson lvie who sometime about the year l800 married Sarah Allred daughter of William Allred and Elizabeth Thrasher, originally of Randolph County, North Carolina, and was the progenitor of all the Ivies of Utah and other western states. The results of my researches were originally distributed to a few relatives in 1992. Now, after six more years of historical sleuthing. I have come to doubt that David Anderson Ivey and Anderson Ivie are the same person. Other than a similarity of names, there is nothing to suggest that they are, and too much geography gets in the way. David Anderson might possibly have been in Randolph County, North Carolina in 1800 to woe and wed Sarah Allred. A road went west from Sussex County, Virginia that could have taken him to Randolph County, North Carolina, a not terribly great distance, but William Allred & family, including Sarah, had left Randolph County a decade earlier and were living on the South Carolina - Georgia frontier. No doubt David Anderson could have found his way down there, but no evidence suggests that he did. And why did his father leave him a featherbed in 1834~ when he would have been even further away in Missouri. Quite a few Iveys and Ivies were in Franklin County, Georgia where Anderson and Sarah's second child James Russell Ivie was born in 1802. It would seem more logical to look for the real Anderson lvie there. Unfortunately, record keeping, and the retrieval of those records has not been as vigorously pursued in Georgia as it was in Virginia, and so it is not surprising that Anderson Ivie hasn't been found there, yet.
    Two other assumptions from The lvey Family in America that all Southern Iveys and Ivies derive from Thomas Ivey of Norfolk County, Virginia, and that all Utah Ivies derive from Anderson lvie I have found no reason to doubt. I am distributing this now for whatever interests it may have, and have included the genealogy tracing Thomas Ivey of Virginia to Sir Thomas Ivye of the Wiltshire, England Ivyes. Probably little more than wishful thinking suggests this connection, but with thatc aveat I'll leave it to others to debate the pros and cons. For my partI'm much more interest ed in the lvie family progression from Georgia atthe beginning of the 19th century to thei r settlement in Utah, which Iam currently working on. I had great fun in finding all this s tuff, andhope others will derive some enjoyment from reading it.

    THE VIRGINIA COLONY
    In early May of 1607, three ships carrying 105 colonists of the London Company (later called the Virginia Company) entered Chesapeake Bay. After exploring the bay fora dew weeks, they landed at what would become Jamestown, where they built a stockade. The site, a low swampy area, was ill chosen as were many of the original colonists. As a result the first years in Virginia colony experienced starvation and disease, as well as attacks fromIndians. Of the origin al 500 or so settlers that had arrived by the fall of 1609, only 60 had survived by the sprin g of 1610. Beginning in 1611the colony abandoned the policy of communal labor and food distribution. Plots of 50 acres were given to colonists to raise crops for their own use, and severe penalties were enforced against those who refused to work. Successful tobacco cultivation was introduced and the first women colonists began arriving. It was at this time, 1613, that Francis Mason came to Virginia. By 1616 there were 351 English colonists in Virginia, including 65 women and children, 216 goats, 144 cattle, 6 horses and innumerable hogs and poultry . In the nine years since the founding ofJamestown, about 1650 colonists had arrived in Virginia about 1,000 had died and some 300 had returned to England. By 1619 the colony had stabilized and the population had grown to over a 1,000. The colony was divided into four district s or plantations: James City, the City of Henrico, Charles City and Elizabeth City. Each plantation included a central settlement surrounded by satellite settlements called hundreds, as they were theoretically composed of 100 men. 1619 was an important year in the history of Virginia. The House of Burgess, the first representative body in America began meeting, the fi rst slave arrived, and a system of indentured servants was initiated in which anyone paying the passage of a servant to the colony was entitled to 4 or 5 years of their labor, while under the related head right system they received 50acres of land for each person they imported i nto the colony. This year witnessed the arrival of 1261 new colonists, including families, 10 0apprentices and 90 single women, who were all promptly married. OnMarch 22, 1622, the Indians of Virginia raised a concerted attack on the settlements. More than 350 colonists wer e killed, and although theIndian population was greatly decimated in retaliation, outlying settlements were abandoned. Disease and starvation were once againrampant. In 1624, of the 7, 549 colonists who had come to the colony since 1607, only 1,095 survived. The London Company was dissolved andVirginia became a Crown Colony. By 1634, the colony had expanded to eight counties. In each a county court was established and Commissioners orJustices of the Peac e were designated. Appeals from the county courts were made to the General Court, or to the General Assembly, elected byall freemen in the colony. The population was now close to 5,000 . It was about this time that what would become Lower Norfolk county was beingsettled by col onists from Elizabeth City across the James River. Francis Mason was recorded in the county a s early as 1635, along with such other first families as the Willoughby's, Seawards and Thorough-goods. The Langley, Thelaball, Ivey and Blanche families settled in the county somewhat later. The social and political life of early Lower Norfolk county was dominated by such pioneer families as the Willoughbys, Thoroughgoods, Masons, Langleys and Iveys. But having said that it is necessary to remember that the Virginia of this period was a colony of mostly small landholders and not of large plantations and wealthy planters. The largest of the early g rants rarely exceeded 1,000 acres.As slavery was not yet widespread (300 out of a population of 15,000 in1649) the size of a landholding was restricted by a shortage of agricultural w orkers, the main source being family members and indentured servants. While "plantation" ha s a lordly ring the earliest clearings along the James were no more than farms. Unless a gra ntee was fortunate enough to get lands made up of Indian "old fields" he had to clear his own . Deeds to land described boundaries in terms of naturalfeatures such as creeks and ravines . Boundaries in each parish were"Processioned" every three years by the parish vestry on Rogation day.On foot or on horseback, vestry-men followed property lines and renewed markers . The first Tidewater plantations usually fronted on creeks andrivers to afford dockage to t obacco ships. Most goods moved by water and most humans on foot or by horse. The Virginia hom estead was a world ofits own. Its occupants seldom ventured farther than to church on Sunday and to the county court on court day each month. Social life revolvedaround the home, chu rch, court day, the annual gathering of the county militia, and possibly a local ordinaire o r tavern. For the wealthy andprominent the annual meeting of the House of Burgess and the Governor's council at Jamestown offered a somewhat less provincial alternative tothe local soc ial life. Visiting Englishmen complained that the church in Virginia seemed more Presbyterian than Anglican. This was true of itssimple, low-church service, but not of its blithe anti -Puritanism.Unlike Puritans, Anglicans joyously accepted worldly pleasures. TidewaterVirgin ians felt no guilt in wearing rich clothes, singing, dancing, horse racing, cock-fighting, o r in the pleasures of the bottle. TheirSunday was not a day of penance but of praise. The political life ofLower Norfolk county, like that of other Virginia counties, consisted ofa c ivil branch composed of the county court and office of Sheriff. TheChurch was administered b y a vestry and two churchwardens. There was also a military branch, the county Militia, compo sed of all able-bodied men in the county. In Lower Norfolk county this separation of functions was not echoed by a separation of personnel. The members of the Courtwere also the Vestr y, and the officers of the militia were as often as not the same men, with their rank as like ly to reflect their social standing as their military prowess. In the first generation of settlement in Lower Norfolk county, Lt Francis Mason was clearly among the most prominent. In t he second generation, his son Lemuel Mason was themost important and influential man in th e county. By the third generation the daughters of Lemuel had married the leading men, not on lyin the county, but also in the new town of Norfolk. Notwithstanding, theMason name itsel f soon disappeared from prominence, with only the nameMason Creek, where the family was loca ted, having survived to thisday.
    THE IVEY FAMILY
    The first Ivey to arrive in the Virginia co lony wasThomas Ivey. He was born in England, in 1604, and married Anne, thedaughter of Geor ge Argent, gentleman, of the parish of St Leonard'sShoreditch, Middlesex near London, someti me before 1625. Thomas Iveycame to Virginia with his wife in the REBECCA in 1637. It is no t knownwhen his children came to America. Ivey was settled in Lower Norfolkcounty by 1641 . Thomas Ivey appears to have been a man much involved inthe church, and in l7th century Vi rginia that was the Church of England.Ivey was appointed a churchwarden of Elizabeth River p arish in 1641, aposition he held for the next seven years. The morals of the laity weresu pposedly scrutinized by two churchwardens chosen by the parish vestry.The churchwardens wer e charged with the duty of preventing "ungodlydisorders" including "skandalous offenses suc h as suspicions ofWhoredoms, dishonest company keeping and suchlike...and other enormoussin nes." Ivey seems to have brought a certain zeal to the job, twicedefending the county from p reachers with Puritan leanings. In April1645, Ivey brought charges in the county court aga inst Mr ThomasHarrison, the Pars/o Elizabeth River parish for "not reading the bookeof C ommon Prayer, and for not Administering to Sacrament of Baptismeaccording to the Cannons an d order prescribed, and for not Catechisingon Sundayes in the afternoon according to Act o f Assembly. In fact,Harrison was being accused of the unorthodoxy of Puritanism, a deviatio nnot well tolerated in the Virginia church. The county court orderedHarrison to be summon s to Jamestown to answer the charges before theGovernor and Council. Again in 1648 Ivey wa s involved in bringingcharges against William Durand, another minister of a Puritan bent. According to the court memorandum: Recorded the 29th of May 1648Memorandum: that upon the 28t h of May Anno: Dom: 1648 (being the Sabbothday) wee whose names are hereunder written bein g requested and requiredin the name of our Soveraigne Lord the King, by Richard Conquest gen thigh Sherriffe of the County of Lower Norfolke for his ayde andassistance in giveing publi que Notice to the Inbabitants of Elizabethriver in the Said County, to forbears and desist f rom their frequentmeetings and usuall assembling themselves togeather contrary to the lawes and Goverment of the Colony: And thereupon, wee accordingly aydeing andassisting the Sai d high Sherrifi"e in the premises, did fynd one namedWilliam Durand with much people (men wo men & children) assembled & metttogether in the Church or Chappell of Elizabeth River afores aid, (in theforenoone of the said day) and wee did see the said William Durand goeinto an d sett in the Deske or Readng place of the said Church; where asalsoe in the pullpitt hee ha th customarily by the space of these threemoneth last past, upon severall sabboth dayes (a s by certaine andcredible informacon to us given) preached to the said people: And thesear e further to certifye that the said Sherriff'e did upon the sd 28thday of May cause proclama tion to bee made and published in the saidChurch or Chappell, in the prsence & in the bearin g of all the saidpeople assembled & mett togeather as aforesaid, after this manner, and int hese expresse words ffolloweing (vizt) All manner of peons here mettand assembled, are in th e Kings name strictly required and commanded,forthwith and immediately to retorne to their s everall dwellings, orhabitations, as they or any of them, will answer their contempts to th econtrary at their uttermost pills: And these are likewise further tocertifye, that notwith standing after such Proclamation made andpublished by the said high Sherriffe in manner as i s afore declared MrCornelius LLoyd and Mr Edward LLloyd Comrs, and John fferinghaugh with divers others (whose names are not yet certaynly to us knowne) wereMayneteynors and Embraceor s of the faction of William Durand aforenamed, and Abbettors to much sedition and Mutiny; An d the said Mr CorneliusLLoyd and Mr Edward LLoyd and John fferinghnugh aforenamed, not onel ydenyed and refused to ayde and assist the said high Sherriffe tosuppresse the said factio n and Sedition, they being in his namerequested and required thereunto, but alsoe they the s aid Mr Cor: LLoydMr Edw: LLoyd & John ffernihaugh indeavored and did goe about to rescueth e said William Durand, from & after arrest, hee the said Durnand beingapprehended at the sui te of our said Dread Soveraigne Lord the King: Intestimony of all wch to bee truth, wee hav e hereunto subscribed ournames this nine & twentieth day of May Anno: Dom: 1648 John Sibse yThomas Ivy Ri Conquest high Sherr The charges against Durand were upheldby the Governor a nd Council, and Durand was ordered to pay SheriffConquest 5,569 pounds of tobacco for his co sts and "payne" in bringingDurand to justice. Unfortunately of conquest, Durand seems to hav e leftthe county taking his personal possessions with him. He eventually madehis way to Bos ton where his Puritanism was better appreciated. The factthat two of Durand's supporters, Co rnelius Lloyd and John fferinghaugh,were elected to the Vestry in August of the same year, a s were two ofhis detractors, Sheriff Conquest and Thomas Ivey suggests that some sortof com promise was reached in the affair. A new parson was selected inOctober. The Ivey house wa s situated on the north side of the Easternbranch of the Elizabeth River at the site of a co lonial dam, and at thepoint where the 1652 boundary between Norfolk and Princess Anne counti escrossed the river (near the present location of the town of Kempville inPrincess Anne cou nty) . The Ivey house stood near the conjunction of anumber of major colonial roads and so i t is not surprising that it waslicensed as an ordinaire or tavern in 1646, the same year Ive y served asunder-Sheriff to Lt Francis Mason. The year preceding his death, ThomasIvey see ms to have spent much of his time in the Norfolk county courts.He sued on Henry Merritt to r eturn to his house and there "use his bestindustry for finishing upp" of one kill of Earthe n Ware." The courtordered Merritt to pay Ivie 1928 pounds of tobacco and "that the Kill ofE arthen Ware now to be burned together with all mat'ialls belongingewhatsoever about the maki ng and finishing of former Earthen ware beEqually divided betweene the said Ivey and the sai d Merritt." Ivey was ordered to return Merritt's bedding and tools. Later in the year Ivey served on a "Jury of Life and Death" trying Agnes Holmes for beating UsebaRider "whereof he died." She was found not guilty. By far the most humiliating was his appearance as the plain tiff in the suit of slander brought by Elizabeth Sibsey (widow of Ivey's fellow churchwarden John Sibsey) .The Jury, for the vindication of her good name, ordered "that the said Ivy shall stand in open Court the next that shall be held in this place from nine till 3 in the afternoone with these exprest words in Capitall letters standing before and behind in his Hatt .
    I DOE CONFESS & ACKNOWLEDGE TO HAVE WRONGFULLY DEFAMED M.S. ELIZABETH SIBSEYOF THE COUNTY OF LOWER NORFOLK FOR WHICH I AM HARTLY SORRY & CRAVE HER PARDEON.
    And moreover to stand i n the same manner at the Court housedoore in publique view at James Citty the next Grand Ass embly the secondday after the Assembly sitts, from 9 in the morning till 3 in theafternoon e and likewise to pay all costs and Charges." We know thatIvey died the following year, a s his sons Thomas- Vicesimus and GeorgeIvey appeared in the Lower Norfolk court in 1653 to c ertify that theywere the "sons of Thomas Ivey, deceased, and Anne, his wife, who was thedau ghter of one George Argent living about London, England, as she oftenreported." Anne was als o dead at this time, as is evidenced by a willmade by her father, George Argent, Gent. date d 16 August 1653, andproved 23 April 1654, which mentions "Children of my late daughter, Ann eIvey, deceased, who were borne in Virginia where she died.GEORGE ARGENT of Hoxton, parish o f St. Leonard, Shoreditch,,, Middx., Gentleman.Dated 16 Aug 1653 Codicil 27 Feb. 1653- 4 Proved 23 April 1654 To beburied in the Parish Church of St. Leonard, Shore-ditch, as nee re to mylate wife and Sonne William Argent as may be.

Dated 16 Aug. 1 653 John Glascock, Anne Ivey, the marke ofRebeccha Coultman, Witnesses Proved 23 April 165 4 by the ExecutorsnamedHoxton N1. That part of the former Metropolitan Borough of SHOREDITCH which lies to the north of Old Street and the west of Kingsland Road.It is now within th e London Borough of HACKNEY. Hoxton is first referredto in Domesday Book as a manor of 'thre e hides' held by the Canons ofST. PAUL'S and worth 45s. It was still held by the BISHOP OF LONDON atleast until the 14th century. William Fitzstephen's description of thearea in the 1 2th century comments on the 'fields for pasture, and openmeadows, very pleasant, into whic h the river waters do flow, and millsare turned about with a delightful noise. Next liet h a great forest, inwhich are woody places and for game...' By the 16th century there wa s aspilling of London's population into this countryside. The wealthy andthe fashionable mo ved into the villages surrounding the city and Hoxtonwas one of the villages which was devel oped at this time. Here the richbuilt homes in pleasant surroundings not too far removed fro m the courtor places of business. Hoxton also became a place of entertainment andrecreation . It was in SHOREDITCH that the first theatre was built inLondon. A poem written at the begi nning of the 17th century walled 'Tisa Mad World at Hogsdon' describes a notorious alehous e in Hoxton Streetcalled the Pimlico This was later to be the site of the BRITANNIA THEATRE. The 17th and 18th centuries saw the steady growth of the area but itstill retained its rur al appearance. During the 17th century Hoxton hada reputation for its market and nursery gar dens. Later in that centuryand into the 18th many CITY LIVERY COMPANIES acquired land here f or thealmshouse. In 1689 Robert Aske left ø20,000 to the Haberdashers Companyfor the erecti on of an almshouse for 20 single freemen of the Companyand schooling for 20 sons of poor fre eman. Aske's Hospital in PitifieldStreet was therefore erected in 1692 for both these purpos es. Rebuiltin 1825 and altered in 1873 it was finally purchased by the LONDON COUNTYCOUNCI L for a technical school. It is now the City and East LondonCollege., which was formed in 19 74 on the amalgamation of the CityCollege for Further Education, Tower Hamlets College for F urtherEducation and the three departments of Walbrook College based north ofthe Thames. Th e WEAVERS' COMPANY almshouses erected in 1670 were on thesite of the present court and oppos ite stood the FULLERS' almshouses.Hoxton Square was laid out towards the end of the 17th ce ntury. It washere that one of the first dissenting academies was opened. Here, barredfrom t he universities, Presbyterian and Independent ministers receivedtheir theological training, and a liberal education was provided forDissenters' sons. By 1801, the population of th e whole of SHOREDITCH(of which Hoxton was a part) had grown to 34,766, doubled to 68,564 b y1831 and in 1861 was 129,364. SHOREDITCH rapidly lost its rural aspect.As the population g rew the parish of SHOREDITCH was divided and thepresent parish of SHOREDITCH was dedicated t o St. John the Baptist, waserected in 1825-26. In a survey of London life and labor toward s the endof the century Hoxton is described as 'one of the worst parts of London,where pove rty and overcrowding are characteristic of practically thewhole district. Largely owing t o conditions in Hoxton, Shoreditch rankssecond among eastern area boroughs in the percentag e of persons livingin poverty.' Hoxton was renowned at this time for its music halls. In Hoxton Street stood, until 1940, the BRITANNIA Theatre, once noted for itsblood-curdling melod rama. Rebuilt in 1858, it became one of the mostfamous music halls. MACDONALD's also in Hoxt on Street, opened in 1864and the Varieties (in Pitfield Street) in 1870. Near the Britanni a stoodthe Pollock's Toy Theatre shop, immortalized by Robert Louis Stevenson inone of hi s essays, Penny Plain and Twopence Coloured (see POLLOCK'S TOYMUSEUM). Overcrowding continue d in this part of London right down to the2nd World War. The area suffered a great deal in t he bombing and theformer borough of SHOREDITCH energetically reconstructed it. Today therei s a considerable amount of new municipal housing and very little can beseen to remind the vi sitor of Hoxton's past. Famous residents haveincluded Kate Greenaway, the artist, who was bo rn in Cavendish Square in1896, and James Parkinson, the physician, geologist and author of A nEssay on the Shaking Palsy (1817) in which Paralysis agitans, known asParkinson's diseas e is described who lived and practiced at No. 1 HOXTON SQUARE. Hoxton Square N1. Built in th e 1680's on ground where BenJonson fought a duel with an actor named Gabriel Spencer, whom h ekilled. For punishment he had his left thumb branded, escaping thegallows by benefit of cl ergy. St. Leonard Shoreditch (Shoreditch HighStreet), E1. Probably founded in the 12th cent ury. After part of thetower had given way during a service in 1716, the church was rebuilt b yGeorge Dance the Elder, in 1736-40. He tried to imitate the spire of STMARY-LE-BOW. The in terior has sombre woodwork and a flat paneled ceiling. In 1857 the north and south gallerie s were removed. The roof beam was inserted in 1923. The church was damaged in the 2nd World War but has since been repaired. The whipping post and village stocks are inthe church yard . Three of Keat's brothers were baptized here in 1801 andCharles Bradlaugh, the atheist, i n 1833. Buried here are Will Sommers,Henry V111's jester, 1560; Gabriel Spencer, the actor w ho was killed byBen Jonson in a duel in 1598; Elizabeth Benson, who has an outstanding monument by Francis Bird of two skeletons tearing at the Tree of Life,1710; and Richard Burbage, Shakespeare's friend and the builder of theCURTAIN. SHOREDITCH N1, N2 The settlement gre w up at the junction of two ROMAN ROADS, Kingsland Road and Old Street. It is first mentioned in manuscripts in 1148 as Shoreditch which probably means ditch of Sceor for Scorre. ST LEONARD'S CHURCH was founded in the I2th century if not before and includes in its parish the h amlets of HOXTON and HAGGERSTON,both of which are mentioned in the Domesday Book. Between 11 52 and 1158the Augustinian priory of Holywell was established. The priory owned a large amount of land in the parish, as did the hospital at ST MARY HOSPITAL, the Canons of ST PAUL'S an d the BISHOP OF LONDON. In 1539 Holywell priory was dissolved and most of its buildings were demolished. In 1576 James Burbage founded the THEATRE in the vicinity.It was the first playhouse in England. and lasted until 1598 when it was taken down and re-erected in SOUTHWAR K as the GLOBE. In 1577 another theatre was begun nearby known as THE CURTAIN. It is not know n who built it but one Henry Lanman, or Laneman, was the owner in March 1582. By 1625it ha d fallen into disuse. Many actors lived in the area and some of them were buried in ST. LEONA RD'S CHURCH. In 1598 Stow wrote in hisSurvey of London that there were houses along the Hig h Street and alongOld Street as far as Golden Lane. In 1598 Ben Jonson fought a duel with Gabriel Spencer in Hoxton Fields and killed him. In about 1683development of the area began w ith Hoxton Square. No.32 is said to date from this time. In 1695 Robert Aske bequeathed money for buildingHaberdashers' almshouses and a school in Pitfield Street (seeHABERDASHERS' AS KE). In 1715 Robert Geffrye bequeathed money for building IRON-MONGERS' almshouses in the Kings land Road. They now house the GEFFRYE MUSEUM. The first houses in Charles Square appear t o have been built between 1685 and 1687, on the east side. These were followed in 1726-7 bv N o.16, which is the only Georgian house left; the rest have been replaced with modern housing blocks. By 1750 the population of the parish had reached an estimated 10,000. By 1801 it ha d risen to 35,000.About 1824 the former pleasure garden known as the Shepherd and Shepherdess was developed by Thomas Rouse as the EAGLE TAVERN inShepherdess Walk. The Grecian Saloon w as added in 1831, using fitting from the coronation of William I V. In 1822-6 the Church o f St John the Baptist Hoxton, designed by Francis Edwards, was built by theCommissioners und er the 1818 Act. St Mary Haggerston, designed by JohnNash and also financed by the Commissioners, was built at the same time.This church was destroyed in the 2nd World War. By 1831 the population had reached 69,000 and by 1851 109,000. In 1965 Shoreditch was amalgamated wit h the borough of HACKNEY. Famous residents have includedRichard Burbage, the actor who played at THE THEATRE withShakespeare.George Ivey sr, s/o Thomas Ivey and Anne Argent was bor nin England, c1628. A planter of Lower Norfolk county, he married HannahBlanch(e), the daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Blanche. Their children were Alexander, George jr, Samuel, Thomas, John, Joseph, Elizabeth, andHannah. George Ivey sr died in 1689, in Lower Norfolk county .

I strive to document my sources. However, some people and dates are best guesses and will be updated as new information is revealed. If you have something to add, please let me know.
