Notes |
- Wise says he is the son of Nathaniel Offutt and gives his birth date as 1710 (the same year his son is born!). He is said to be the son of William Offutt of Montgomery CO who patented land called the "Younger Brother" in Prince George CO, and Mary Brock, daughter of Edward Brock of "Brock Hall."
I also have a note that says Wlizabeth's mother was Sarah Beall
William Offutt is the patriarch of the Offutt's in America. William married Mary Brock in 1695. Mary was the daughter of Captain Edward Brock who emigrated to Calvert County, Maryland from Ireland before 1672. By the time William Offutt began to acquire large tracts of land in Maryland, William of Orange, a Presbyterian had become king of England, and for a time the Presbyterian Church was the church of England until his reign ended. As loyalist to the Crown of England, William and Mary Offutt were members of the Presbyterian Church and their son Edward deeded land in order to establish a Presbyterian Church in Maryland.
