Questions abt. Richard and Alexander NASH-Kent Co.,Md. 1660

Richard and Alexander Nash were brothers in Kent Co., Md. by 1662.
Richard mar. Mrs. Anne Blunt, widow of Richard Blunt (d. 1669-Kent Co.), had 2 children Richard and Thomasin Mary and died Oct. 1680-Kent Co. (will dated 28 Apr. 1679, prob. 25 Oct. 1680. Richard mentions brother Alexander, John Linssey, Hugh Foukes,Jr. Grace Chessell, wife (unnamed ), children Richard and Thomasin; rest to Quaker Church.

Postings state A Samuel Wheeler was appt. guardian of Richard and Thomasin. Does anyone have this record ? What is the date on it ? Mrs. Anne Nash mar. Samuel Wheeler sometime between 1680-1686

Alexander mar. Ruth Hill 20 Jan. 1662 (1663 New Style) in Kent Co. and died probably in Apr. 1681 (will dated 30 Oct.1676, probated 1 May 1681). Postings state Ruth mar. Samuel Wheeler but list no source: I think this is an error. Alexander doesn't even mention a wife in his will which leads me to believe Ruth was dead by the time he wrote his will in Oct. 1676. In his will Alexander mentions niece Thomasin Nash, Georhe Goldhawke no relation stated) to recieve land at age 21, to Eliza, Thomas and James Taylor, children of Thomas Taylor, to John Spooner and to Alice Miller, dau. of Michael.

Alexander and Ruth had 3 children : Alexander, Sarah and Elizabeth. Alexander makes no mention of any of these children in his will but sites on the internet state Sarah mar,. George Goldhawke and Elizabeth mar. Thomas Taylor. Is this inof accurate ?


Samuel Wheeler's will-Kent Co. dated 15 May 1693, prob. 19 Apr. 1694 list dau. Susannah, son-in-law John Butcher, wife (unamed), Mary Bouldin and son-in-law Thomas Butcher, Mary Ann Jackson and son-in-law Robert Blunt, Godson Alexander son of Andrew Toulson.
In this period "son-in'law" usually meant step-son.
So we know Samuel Wheeler was married at least twice:
1) to a widow Mrs. Butcher, mother of above John and Thomas, probably mother of Susannah. Mary Ann Jackson is probably also a dau. of Mrs. Butcher.
2) Mrs. Anne (________) Blunt Nash. Mary Bouldin is I'm sure Thomasin Mary Nash, Anne's dau., who mar. Wm. Boudlin in 1692. Robert Blunt is Anne's youngest surviving child by Richard Blunt.
