     William Blackiston Sr. was born circa 1680 at Maryland, USA. He married Ann Park before 1711 at Kent Co., Maryland, USA.
William Blackiston Sr. married Ann Moore, daughter of John Moore and Elizabeth Dowland, circa 1728.

William Blackiston Sr. died before 10 May 1737 at Kent Co., Maryland, USA.²

; !WILL: date Mar 16 1736/7 pro May 10 1737. To wife Ann and to pay certain
personalty to William Moore, daus. Mary, Ann Miller, Hanna and Rose, son William
and unborn child. son Ebenezer. residue of personal estate divided among four
youngest child and wife. WB 21-791. wife Ann abides by will.

He administered on his father's estates in 1709. He represented Kent Co in
the Maryland Assembly 1722-4 (House Journals). Of age by 1712.

He was obviously married twice as his wife Ann could not have had children for
so many years (37 years between oldest and youngest). It is my conclusion that
the first wife was Ann Park and the second wife was Ann Moore.

His biography is in the Biographies of the Maryland Legislature p 135.³ He was Represented Kent Co. in the Assembly 1722-1724 between 1722 and 1724 at Kent Co., Maryland, USA.²

     Ann Moore was born on 10 August 1708 at St. Paul's Parish, Kent Co., Maryland, USA. She married William Blackiston Sr., son of Ebenezer Blackiston Capt. and Elizabeth James, circa 1728.

Ann Moore died after 1737.
     EDV-6.

; Barnes & Wright (p. 38) give Anne Park (b c1695, dau of Robert Park and Mary Park) as the wife of this William Blackiston. I (GAV) have chosen to follow Christou's reasoning simply because of the amount of research he has put into this line.²

; Christou: "The reference in the will of William Blackiston to a William Moore leads me to believe the wife Ann is actually a Moore. Also William Blackiston is named as next of kin in John Moore's estate in 1729. One record said Ann Moore married Hance Blackiston but due to chronology however, I believe she was his mother."¹

     Hance Blackistone was born in 1737 at Kent Co., Maryland, USA. He married Ann (?) after 1769.

Hance Blackistone died circa January 1772 at Kent Co., Maryland, USA.
      ; !WILL: will date Dec 24 1771 proved Jan 22 1772 WB 38 p 169 whole estate to
wife Ann, witnesses John Moore, Augustine Moore.

It is my guess that Hance is the unborn child named in William's will. Note
the reference to the Moore family in William's will and in Hance's will. Others
have said Ann Moore married Hance Blackistone. I think however that Ann is his
mother, based on chronology and other records.¹

     Elizabeth James was born circa 1643. She married Ebenezer Blackiston Capt., son of George Blackiston and Barbara Lawson, circa 1670 at Maryland, USA,
; his 1st wife.²
Elizabeth James died before 1697.¹
     EDV-7.

Elizabeth James left a will on 26 November 1665; John James will dated Nov 26 1665 probate Jun 26 1666 mentions sisters Elizabeth and Ann and father in law (stepfather) William Toulson who is to be executor and manage the estates of sisters till they are of age or married. Bequests to Elizabeth wife of Thomas Hunt and Ann Pereman servant to Samuel Withers and to testators servants Edward Thomas and Morris Lloyd. Sister Eliza to have "Jame's Hill". She is mentioned in the will of John James of 1665 as his sister. William Toulson was called father in law (stepfather). Ann Tolson names son Thomas Francis also, so her maiden name may also be Francis.³

email from Barbara Apsley Miller (12 Feb 1999):
Greg, thank you for sending the GED/COM file. You have some info I can add
into the Rasin file, but I think I have information which might clarify some
things. I am not ruling out some confusion over the Apsley/Ashley families,
but I have researched the Apsley name exclusively for about 15 years,
examining hundreds of documents and I disagree with all that say they were the
same family. An Edward Apsley arrived aboard the ship Globe in Kent County,
Maryland in 1678. I don't know whom he married, but a child of that marriage
ends up in the household of Michael Miller, merchant of Chestertown and is
mentioned in Michael's 1699 will. There is no doubt that that Michael is
bestowed land in the Worton area, is married at least twice, and dies in 1781
as evidenced by an inventory. A second marriage of his is to Ann Roberts
daughter of Robert Roberts who married second Mary ASHLEY widow of John
Ashely.(It is at this point that I believe the confusion comes in, although
several Kent County researchers including the Abels, and Cooper are still
insistant that they are the same family. I ask that you have an open mind,
read what I am sending, and let me know what you think. I don't know whether
you are familiar with Chris Christou, a researcher/writer who clarified the
identity of Martha Wroth Apsley's second husband, Captain William Blackiston
Rasin, as being distinct from another William Rasin who was a contemporary?^1,7,8,9,10

James Clinton Rasin was listed as a resident in Dulany Rasin's household in the census report in 1840 at District 2, Kent Co., Maryland, USA;
Dulany was 24 in 1840 and though his name is listed as Head of Household, he could not have been the older male enumerated (aged 40-49). His father and mother were both living at the time and might be the older couple in the household. Dulany did not marry Mary Jane BECK until 1845, so it's unclear to whom the children belong, but they could well be Dulany's siblings.

Emily Bennett Rasin was listed as a resident in Dulany Rasin's household in the census report in 1840 at District 2, Kent Co., Maryland, USA;
Dulany was 24 in 1840 and though his name is listed as Head of Household, he could not have been the older male enumerated (aged 40-49). His father and mother were both living at the time and might be the older couple in the household. Dulany did not marry Mary Jane BECK until 1845, so it's unclear to whom the children belong, but they could well be Dulany's siblings.
