• Notes

  === Research notes from Robert Helwig Henry Bennet Darnall died in Sept 1793 in Baltimore County, per his will that was written and probated in that same month. He named his brother Nicholas and Nicholas's son Francis. It appears he died without issue. Henry and Elizabeth also had a son simply named Bennett Darnall, whose very large will was probated in Anne Arundel in 1814. Henry and Elizabeth's son Richard's will was probated in Anne Arundel in 1807 and their son Philip's will was probated in Anne Arundel in 1789. === Provincial Court Land Records, 1765-1770 Volume 725, Page 291 This Indenture made the tenth day of June Anno Domini one thousand seven hundred and sixty seven Between Nicholas Low Darnall and Susannah Darnall his Wife of Baltimore County planters of the one part and Francis Hall of Prince Georges County Gent of the other part Witnesseth that the said Nicholas Low Darnall and Susannah his Wife for and in Consideration of the sum of Eight Hundred Pounds Sterling to them in hand paid by the said Francis Hall the receipt whereof they doth hereby Acknowledge and themselves therewith satisfied Hath Given granted aliened Enfeoffed and Confirmed and by these presents doth fully and Absolutely give Grant Alien Enfeoff and Confirm unto the said Francis Hall and his Heirs forever All that Tract or parcell of Land now in Possession of the said Nicholas Low Darnall Called The Land of Promise lying and being in Baltimore County and upon the head of Gun Powder River and upon the North side of the South Branch of the s.d River and Butted and Bounded as followeth (viz.t) Beginning at a Stone now fixt at the Division line between him the s.d Nicholas Low Darnall and his Brother Henry Bennett Darnall in the third Line of the Original Survey of the s.d Land and runing thence North fifty one and a half Degrees West two hundred and fifty nine perches to a red Oak mentioned in the Original Grant thence South West six hundred and eighty two perches to the South Branch of Gun Powder River then South fifty four degrees and a quarter East two hundred and ninety nine perches to the dividing line thence North forty two Degrees and a quarter East six hundred and seventy perches to the Stone fixt for the Beginning laid out for and Computed to be One Thousand Acres of Land more or Less together with all and singular the plantations Houses buildings Edifices and improvements whatsoever thereon or thereunto belonging To have and to hold the said Bargained Premisses unto him the said Francis Hall his heirs and Assigns for ever and to the only proper use and Benefitt and behoof of him the said Francis Hall his heirs and Assigns for ever and to no other use intent or purpose whatsoever so that neither the said Nicholas Low Darnall nor Susannah his Wife nor their Heirs nor Assigns nor any of them nor any person or persons whatsoever Claiming or to Claim by from or under him or them or any of them shall or will hereafter Claim or Demand any right title Interest Estate Claim or property of in and to the said Land and premisses or to any part thereof but from all and every Action Right Title Estate Claim property or demand whatsoever of in and to the same and the said Nicholas Low Darnall his heirs and every of them shall be utterly exclued and Debarr'd for ever by these presents In Confirmation whereof the partys to these presents first above mentioned have hereunto Interchangeably set their hands and Seals the Day and Year first above written Signed Sealed and Delivered Nich.s L Darnall (seal) in the Presence of Susannah Darnall (seal) Henry Hall Tho.s Franklin On the Back of the aforegoing Deed were the following endorsments to wit Be it Remembered that on this Tenth day of June 1767 Came Nicholas Low Darnall and Susannah his Wife and Acknowledged the within Deed to be their Acts and the land and premisses therein Contained to be the right title interest and Estate of Francis Hall his heirs and Assigns forever And at the same time Susannah Wife of the said Nicholas Low Darnall Acknowledged her right of Dower and being by us privately Examined out of the hearing of her said Husband declared that she made her Acknowledgment willingly and freely without being induced thereto by fear threat or ill usage of her Husband or fear of his Displeasure taken and Certifyed the day and year above written By Tho.s Franklin W.m Smith Received of M.r Francis Hall the sum of two pounds sterling being the Alienation fine on the within Land for the use of the Lord Baltimore by virtue of a Commission from Edward Lloyd Esq.r his said Lordships Agent and receiver General Recorded the 2.d day of September 1767 J Brice
