[16847] Her family name is also seen "Behler". Elizabeth's birth is either 15 or 25 March. The federal census 21 Oct 1850 in North Codorus Twp., York Co., PA lists her as age 52! She is identified in Daughters of the American Revolution membership application for National No. 570440 and is not otherwise verified. This is also the source for their son, Isaac. Robert Nelson (rk-nelson@worldnet.att.net) gives her death as 27 Apr 1876.

Patience Chadbourne (1. William), baptized Tamworth, Warwickshire, England 8 Nov 1612; died York Co ME (probably Berwick) 7 Nov 1683 (MPC III: 188-189, YD 5/1/23-4); married, perhaps in England, before 1629 (Torrey's New England Marriages Prior to 1700 states that a child was born 1630) THOMAS SPENCER, born England about 1596, died Berwick 15 Dec 1681 (MW, 66-68; YD 5/1/12; inv YD 5/1/3). A Thomas Spencer was baptized 28 Mar 1597, son of William at Eastwick, Herefordshire, England (LND, 651-2). The baptism in 1603 of a Thomas Spencer, son of Thomas Spencer, has been noted in the parish registers of Winchcombe, Gloucestershire. Further research is required to determine whether this could be the Maine settler. No marriage record has been found.
Thomas arrived at Piscataqua in July 1630 on the barque Warwick (TMS), returned to England in 1633, and returned to the colonies on the Pied Cow in 1634. In his 1904 work, Emery was probably mistaken when he said Spencer was from Winchcombe, Gloucester, England. Emery went on to say erroneously that this was also the English home of the Chadbournes. By the 1950s, it was known that this was untrue and that the Chadbournes came from Tamworth (Parish records). More may be learned about Thomas Spencer's arrival in Maine in MPC IV:172-4 and under #8 Humphrey Spencer.
Thomas was a planter, lumberman, and tavernkeeper. Pope's Pioneers of Maine & New Hampshire says that Thomas was a proprietor of Cambridge MA in 1633, a freeman in 1634 who removed to Kittery. Patience and Thomas lived first at Strawbery Bank (Portsmouth), then on 6 Mar 1636/7 were called residents of "Piscataqua" (Kittery Point), and finally of Newichawannock (S Berwick). Dispute over Thomas' title to land in S Berwick (where William Chadbourne gave them a house) is described under their son Humphrey #8. They were of Saco in 1654 (Holmes, Dictionary of New England Families) and Patience was (erroneously) called a widow of Saco in 1662 (Savage, Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England). In 1682 Patience was probably of Berwick as Thomas died there in 1681 and she in 1683.
Thomas was disenfranchised for entertaining Quakers in 1659 (LND, 652). Evidence that Thomas and Patience may have been Quakers is seen in the courts 7 July 1663 when they were presented for "neglecting to come to the publique meeteing on the Lords day to heare the word preached for about the space of 3 Moenths" (MPC II:139). They were presented again for the same offense on 6 July 1675 (ibid, II:306). In a long list of "those persons yt entertayned the Quakers, with the answers given in by them respectively" we find: "That Thomas Spencer pay as a fine to ye country for his entertayning the Quakers the somme of five pounds, & be disfranchised" (The Records of the Colony of the Massachusetts Bay in New England, Vol 4, part 1, p 407). Edward Wharton piloted a vessel that carried a group of Quakers up the coast, and seven people were fined varying sums and/or disenfranchised (lost the right to vote) by the Massachusetts Bay government, the only entity which could disenfranchise a freeman. Thomas Spencer obviously answered their questions in sympathy with the Quakers, defied the government, and was cast out as a result. Because we don't have copies of his answers to the Court's questions, we don't know how steadfastly he supported the Quakers, but he clearly satisfied the Court that he was in sympathy with them or they would not have taken action against him. They did not take action against James Rawlings, for instance, whom they found to be "more innocent and ingenious then the rest."
Brother Humphrey Chadbourne expressed concern for his sister Patience Spencer when he wrote his will in 1662. Humphrey directed his wife to assist "sister Spencer" if she should fall into "decay" (qv).
After Thomas' death in Dec 1681, Patience may have continued to operate the tavern. After her death her children and relatives, William, Humphrey and Moses Spencer, Ephraim Joy, and Thomas Chick, chose William Spencer and Thomas Chick to help them divide the estate 15 Nov 1683 (MPC III:186), and then finally settled on Edward Rishworth, Richard Nason and James Emery to make the division (ibid, III:188), probably because William and Thomas were heirs.

[6830] Winifred B. Moore wrote Feb. 8, 1982 that Stephen m. Deborah _____ and had on Aug. 25, 1978 Eva Ruth Holmes. "Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram, 8 July 2018": "Portland - Stephen Oliver "Otter" Holmes, 68, passed away on July 1, 2018, at Gosnell Memorial Hospice in Scarborough after a brief battle with cancer. He was born in Bangor, Maine on Feb. 3, 1950, the son of Theodore C. and Mary D. (Haynes) Holmes. The family moved to Portland in 1955. Stephen graduated from Deering High School in 1968, where he was a member of the State Championship Cross Country team and the band. He graduated from Bowdoin College in 1972 with a degree in German Literature. He later studied accounting and computing at the University of Maine in Portland. Growing up, Steve enjoyed canoe trips in the Allagash and saltwater sailing with his father and other relatives, developing a love of water he passed on to his own children. He was also an avid gardener who gladly shared his harvest. Stephen was a champion of the underdog and once coached a Portland Little League team that won the championship after losing every game of the season. Stephen had a career as an accountant, working for Maine Savings Bank and AAA in Portland, before retiring from Utilities, Inc. in Standish. By day he was an accountant, but at heart Steve was a songwriter and musician. His band, Stevie and the Blackouts, played with legendary songwriters Doc Pomus and Otis Blackwell, who wrote many of the hits of the 50s and 60s. Other highlights of his musical career included opening for John Lee Hooker and Sleepy LaBeef. He continued to perform at local venues until he was too sick to hold his guitar. Stephen is survived by his mother, Mary; his, daughter Eva Holmes and her partner, John McNamara; his sons, Edward Holmes and Malcolm Holmes; and his ex-wife, Deborah Calabrese. In addition Steve is survived by his sister, Julia and her husband, Joseph O'Neill of Glenside, Pa.; and nieces, Elizabeth and Kathleen O'Neill. He will be sorely missed by the many friends he made along the way."
[27204] Thomas descends from Anchitel De Grey of Thurrock, one of William the Conqueror companions in arms at the battle of Hastings, recorded in the Domesday Book in 1085-86 as lord of many manors and lordships in the counties of Oxford and Buckingham.
