Tilden Family Of Kent County.
According to Hanson's Old Kent (Page 302, 307) the immigrant ancestor of this family was Marmaduke Tilden of Great Oak Manor, Kent County, Md., who came to Maryland in 1658 and died in September, 1671, leaving three sons; Marmaduke, Charles and John. The State and County records, however, show that the immigrant ancestor was Charles Tilden, who, on the 27th of March, 1677, " proved one right for transporting himself into this Province to inhabit," and assigned it, 14th May, following, to John Wedge (Land Office, Lib. 15, fol. 413). He was one of the Justices of Kent County, 1685-1687, and again in 1694; Sheriff of the County in 1693; a vestryman of St. Paul's Parish, 1693, 1696- 1697 ; and a member of the Provincial Grand Jury in 1698. He died in 1699 (Test. Proc., Lib. 17A, fol. 17, 18, 31, 33), leaving issue: 1. Marmaduke Tilden (d. 1726), 2. John Tilden (d. 1746), 3. Mary Tilden (b. 21st July, 1.681; d. 1702), mar. in 1699, Elias King (d. 1706), 4. Wealthy Ann Tilden, mar. in 1710, Thomas

Hynson, 5. Ann Tilden, mar. Wilson. Charles Tilden was

twice married; his first wife, Mary (living in 1692) was certainly the mother of his daughter Mary, and perhaps of his other children as well, with the possible exception of Ann. His second wife,

Ann , survived him. It would be interesting to learn whence

the author of Old Kent derived his rather circumstantial account.

Another landmark of Kent is the Quaker Meeting House at Lynch. John Lynch, a Quaker, once lived where the village is now, and the meeting house stood on land once owned by him. The Quakers named this the "Cecil Meeting," because at the time (1698) it was erected or established it was within the bounds of Cecil County. It was a branch of the Friends' Yearly Meeting established at Philadelphia by the great Quaker, William Penn, and numbered many of Kent's best families as its members. From its records the following names have been taken: Turner, Dawson, Corse, Alston, Brown. Thomas, George, Hodges, Atkinson, Trew, Maslin, Norris, Simmonds, Parrott, Bowers, Rasin, Neal, Gale, Beck, Jones and Lamb. From this last-named family came that great educator of the past decade - Eli Lamb - known to hundreds of men and women as "Cousin Eli."

The early settlers of this neighborhood were: St. Leager Codd, William Frisby, William, Daniel and Gideon Pearce, Edward Scott, George Warner, Charles James, George Oldfield, James Hepburn, James Wroth, Edward Blay, John and Edward Beck, Nathaniel Styles, George Skirven and Philip Rasin. Later came Matthews Howard, Nathaniel Kennard, Cornelius Comegys, John Wethered, Charles Tilden, George Medford and many others whose names appear on the register of Shrewsbury Parish or the land records of the county.

James Frisby Sr. was mentioned in a land transaction on 15 April 1664 at Virginia, USA,
Memo:
Per GPC [1980]:452]: "At a Court held 15 april 1664, upon petition of James Frisby, Merchant, a certificate was granted him for 1150 acres of land, for transporting into the Virginia Colony himself, his wife and four children, and seventeen other inviduals, influcing four negro servants. It is imposible to determine from thie Certificate or Warrant, how many years previously these persons were broughtinto the Colony, or whether they came in one group or at separate intervals of time. It is possible that James Frisby arrived in Virginia by way of one of the British West Indian dependencies."¹⁴ He was Justice, Baltimore County - from Register of the Maryland society of the colonial dames of America, 1891-1915 by National Society of the Colonial Dames of america in the State of Maryland.
