Nathaniel Clough and Susannah Clough…
in Queen Annes County, Maryland

Our oldest known Clow family members are Nathaniel Clough and his wife Susannah. They lived in Queen Annes County, Maryland, owned their own farm of unknown acres but was said to have been considerable. Land recorded in 1744, 50 acres was named “Clough’s Hope.” In 1747 another 50 acres was recorded and it was called “Boon’s Hope.” Boon’s Hope cost Nathaniel and Susannah 2,100 pounds of tobacco, which was a common practice in the early colonies, paying for items with tobacco off your own land.

Nathaniel Clough died in 1748, his estate papers and will are filled in the courthouse in Annapolis. He wanted his estate divided equally among his wife and children. The children were John born 1732, Mary born 1733, Cheney born 1734 this is our line, Susannah born 1737, Rachael born 1738, James born1740, Sarah born 1742, Rebecca born 1743 and Ann born 1749.

Susannah Clough, Nathaniel’s wife died before 1756 exact date is unknown.
