believe that Elizabeth Burton was not the mother of Isaac, Robert, Thomas, John,
James and William. We also think that Joseph, Jacob and Temperance were the
children of Tmperance Prettyman. It seems logical that Robert was named after
his grandfather Robert Burton. Horle p 1267 on Frances Prettyman widow of

"Colonial Delaware Assemblymen 1682-1776", Family Lines Publications,
Westminster, MD, 1989, pgs 69, 70 & 107. Sellers says that Simon Kollock, d
1742, and Comfort his wife are mentioned in Sussex court records in 1729/30.
Sellers also states that they named a son Shephard. Bendler states Comfort a
daughter of Hercules Sheppard married first William Prettyman, second Simon
Kollock and third Richard Hinman. Bendler is incorrect on William Prettyman as
the only William at this time was William son of this John. William was living
and married to another woman at the time Comfort was married to Simon Kollock.
Also see SCD Bk H8 p 38 on 3 May 1743 in which Jacob Kollock, Esquire of Town of
Lewes & Comfort Kollock widow & relict of Simon Kollock deeded land to
Thomas Gordon. Jacob Kollock by virtue of a former marriage with Alice
Sheperd..Jeremiah Claypoole & Sarah his wife. Comfort Kollock sister of
Sarah & Alice and three sisters were the daughters & coheirs of Hercules
Shepard who intermarried with Mary Avery oe daughters of John Avery. Sellers
only basis for thinking Comfort Shephard Kollock married first a Prettyman was
that in the Orphans Court records Simon Kollock had the care of Shephard
Prettyman. Shephard Prettyman was the grandson of this William, and he was named
Shephard because his mother was Mary Kollock the daughter of Shephard Kollock
and Mary Goddard. Also see Horle pgs 1328-1329 which Comfort Shephard is in
court as a spinster (unmarried) in 1707.

210. DeValinger p 308. In his will John names only three children Nehemiah,
Jacob and Comfort. He gave his land to his sons Nehemiah & Jacob and if they
die without heirs the land was to be equally divided among all the heirs. This
is an indication that John had other children-This is the theory of Ralph W.
Prettyman. I agree. The theory is based on the fact that in 1782 census of Lewes
& Rehoboth Hundred in which John’s household had 1-male over 18; 6-males
under 18; 1-female over 18; & 3 females under 18. On 1787 tax list Lewes
& Rehoboth Hd isodman Prettyman, he is on 1789 list; & 1790 tax list for
Cedar Creek Hd with Perry Prettyman. On 16 Jan 1792 John & Perry Prettyman
obtained bond for settling estate of Woodman and John was the administratior.
John was the father per Ralph Prettyman as signature on bond & 1798 will of
John is very similar to that of his signature on a freeholder land valuation. It
is felt that Perry was the brother of Woodman.1803 Orphans Court record for
Woodman Stockley of Indian River Hundred has wife Comfort & children
Solomon, Jacob, Joseph, Comfort Prettyman, Nelly Hill, Anna, Nehemiah and Molly;
and only Comfort and Joseph were still living. This Woodman Stockley is referred
to as the younger on 4 Mar 1766 when his son Soloman petitioned the Orphans
Court for division of the estate. Woodman had died by 21Aug 1764 when his widow
Comfort made an accounting. On 5 Mar 1768 Account of Solomon and Comfort Nock on
estate of Woodman Stockley the younger. Solomon Stockley allowed a legacy left
by Mrs Prettyman, his grandmother. Two sons, Joseph near 18 and Nehemiah near
15. Joseph Stockley chose John Hill as guardian and Nehemiah chose his brother
Jacob Stockley. See FHL microfilm 0006688 SCOC Jan 1761 to May 1772, pgs 103,
137 & ?190-209. There was a Joseph Stockley in Cedar Creek Hd in 1790 census
and if he is is the Uncle of Woodman & Perry Prettyman that explains why
they move to Cedar Creek Hd. Resurvey see FHL microfilm 0006669 p 535. On
Ebenezer Pettyjohn Prettyman see Sussex Co., DE Chancery Court Case File (P#14,

land that heirs of Ebenezer Pettyjohn had inherited. Bridget dau of Ebenezer
Pettyjohn had died and she left 3 children Ebenezer P. Prettyman, Bridget, wife
of George Fisher and Mary Ann Powell who had also died. Cornelia is the unnamed
minor child in probate records for Perry Sussex Co. DE Probate Records RG4545,

310. A big question is the gap between ages of the children of George. One of
two things could have happened, either several children died young, or Levina
died and George remarried. There is also a question of why Levina did not have
children named Ebenezer and Hannah after her parents, and she did name a son
Zachariah after her brother Zachariah. At this time Wingate, was not a Prettyman
or Jones, name, but Levina did have a nephew Wingate Jones who was named after
his mother. Normally you do not see an aunt name one of her children after a
nephew. The mother of George’s daughter, Betsy b 1789, was Levina per St.
George’s Church records (Sussex Vital p 108). Did Levina Jones Prettyman die
before 1781 and George marry a second time to Levina Wingate? Phillip Wingate,
grandfather of Wingate Jones, in his will on 19 November 1757 named daughters,
Tabitha, Rachel, Levina, Leah and Love.162 Levina Wingate, dau of Philip, was
dead by 1781 per her administration in Sussex Co Admin. Solomon Willey &
Aaron Irons did an inventory on 16 Mar 1781 and wihin the inventory it mentioned
that Luranah was the dau of Phillip Wingate, decd, of Worchester Co., MD. We
therefore feel; that Levina (Luranah) Wingate was not the mother of any George’s
children. George, in his will, did put emphasis on his three youngest children,
Wingate, Eunice and Burton. SCW G7 p 139. For Wingate will see Jones, Sharon A.,

333. See Rev Turner collection, FHL microfilm 0441431 which gives 1823 &
1824 Orphans Court record of Mitchell D. Hazzard who died intestate. Hazzard had
uncles and aunts on his mother’s side of Henry, Hezekiah and Thomas Wingate,
and Lureniah Prettyman, wife of John Prettyman, Harriet Prettyman and Sally
Prettyman. John Wingate in his will, DeValinger wills p 211, names wife, Annie;
sons, Ezekiah [hezekiah], John Ephraim, Thomas, Henry, Phillip and Joshua
Wingate; and daughters, Leah, Sally and Nancy Wingate. Ann Wingate in her will,
SCW G7 p 229-230, 1818, names sons, John, Thomas, Ephraim, Joshua, Phillip,
Hezekiah and Henry Wingate, and daughter Larania Jones. She also named
grandsons, Burton and Zachariah Jones, sons of Larania Jones. Ann also name
grandaughter, Sally Wingate, daughter of Hezekiah Wingate. Ann’s son, John
Wingate in his will, SCW G7 p119, 1817, names sister, Lurania Jones, and his
nephews Burton and Zachariah Jones sons of Laurania Jones. He also named nephew
John Wingate son of Henry Wingate. Ralph Prettyman points out that in his
research John Prettyman’s wife is referred to as both Levinah and Laurania
Prettyman. The Hazzard record and wills named above clearly show that Laurania
Prettyman was first married to Isaac Jones and married second a Prettyman. John
Prettyman in his will names his daughter, Levina Jones. Surely Burton Wingate
Jones did not marry his half-sister, the daughter of his mother, but it appears
he did marry his half sister. A Philip Wingate, made his will on 30 Dec 1797 and
probated 26 Apr 1798, DeValinger p 293, and named sons, Cannon, John, and Philip
Wingate; and daughters, Levinah, Sally, Polly and Betsy Wingate. It appears that
John Prettyman’s first wife was Levinah Wingate daughter of Philip Wingate.
This is also indicated as the first child of John Prettyman and Levinah Wingate
was named Philip in honor of his grandfather Philip Wingate. Philip is a Wingate
name and not a Prettyman name.
