NOTES AND QUERIES.

Motes.

NOTEWORTHY among the recent important accessions to the collections of the Society is the gift of the Reverend James Alan Montgomery, Ph.D., of an excellent genealogical volume compiled by his father, the late Thomas Harrison Montgomery, for many years a member of this Society. He has given the work an appropriate title: Notes on my Mother's Maryland Ancestry and Kindred. It is primarily devoted to the Heath, Key and Dulany families. Thomas Harrison Montgomery's mother was Mary Harrison White (1805-1875), the daughter of Thomas Harrison White (1779-1859), who married Mary Key Heath, daughter of Daniel Charles Heath (1744-1799). Thomas Harrison White was the son of Bishop William White by his wife Mary Harrison. Daniel Charles Heath who married Mary Key was the son of James Paul Heath (1712-1746), by his wife Rebecca Dulany. Here we have the key to Thomas Harrison Montgomery's maternal ancestry so ably set forth in his manuscript volume.

Accompanying the book are two packages containing notes, material used in its compilation. It is apparent that the data used were obtained through various channels, from many sources, and at varying times and places. Thomas Harrison Montgomery undoubtedly conducted a voluminous correspondence with the best informed members of the families indicated. He had access to many family papers and an examination of the volume shows that he frequently consulted files of eighteenth century newspapers. Land and probate records, together with other official sources, were not neglected; references are found to parish registers, and published histories are used with good result. In making this generous gift, the donor writes: "The preparation of this material has not been attempted by anyone else, and it was my father's wish to publish the work, in which hope he was disappointed.' The manuscript is eminently worthy of publication. Indeed, there is altogether too little in print respecting the old families of Maryland. Fortunately, however, this manuscript book is so carefully and conscientiously compiled, so well arranged and indexed, that the immense amount of reliable information contained therein is now accessible to students of history, biography and genealogy; its preservation assured in the fireproof building of the Society.

The Heaths are of Cecil County, the Keys of St. Mary's and the Dulanys of Anne Arundel County, Maryland; all exceedingly prominent in their respective localities. In every generation men of note and substance, and women of wit, beauty, and social grace, make a study of this volume intensely interesting and attractive. In the Heath line many of the members held high office in Church and State as well as in the army and navy.

James Paul Heath (1712-1746) was the founder of Warwick, Cecil County, Maryland. A large landowner, in his will dated 5 September, 1745, and probated nearly a year later, he stipulates "Five hundred acres that is to be lay'd out for Warwick". His father, James Heath, the emigrant, was the owner of Heath's Range and other large tracts of land near Warwick. James Paul Heath married Rebecca, daughter of Honorable Daniel Dulany, the elder, of Anne Arundel County, by his wife Rebecca, daughter of Colonel Walter Smith of Calvert County.
