INDEX

[2696] Brian Boru, aka Brien Borom, was King of Munster, 1009-1014 (succeeding his father, Kenedy), and Monarch of Ireland, 1002-1014; routed and expelled the Danish Vikings from Ireland; died on Good Friday; his father m. Mary Bebion (Bevionn)(dau.of Arca, Lord of West Connaought)(her sister Cressa m. Teige, Prince of Connaught) - Collins gives their legendery descent from the early kings of Munster & Ireland clear back to Pharaoh Nectanebus and her ancestor Japhet, son of Noah. {"Royal Ancestors of Magna Charta Barons," Carr P. Collins, Jr., Dallas, 1959, pp. 148-151; cf. Encycl. Brit., 1956 Ed., 11:602; 15:967 - see comments to Ceallachan, King of Munster - this reference states that Brien Borom's dates are 926-1014.} Seumus MacManus, "The Story of the Irish Race" (N.Y.:Devin-Adair, 1944, p. 275) calls him the "most famous hero of the Danish period in Ireland...the celebrated Brian mac Cenneigigh, son of Kennedy, chief of Thomond, including the eastern portion of the present county of Clare, and hereditary ruler of North Munster. He was born probably about the year 941 and is known to history as Brian Boru, which he took from the name of the town of Borime, near Killaloe, on the right bank of the Shannon. He was the youngest of twelve brothers, all of whom fell in battle, except Marcan, who was a religious and head of the clergy of Munster, and Anluan who died of a severe illness." MacManus states (pp. 280-82) that Brien died in a battle with the Vikings on Good Friday, April 23, 1014, at Conliffe near Dublin, and is buried at Armagh . The battle (known as the battle of the Weir of Contarf) is noted by MacManus (pp. 282-83) as "one of the decisive battles of history, for it not only warded off Danish rule from Ireland but probably even altered the whole subsequent history of Europe." Northern France and England became the theater of their operations for 300 years, instead of Ireland, as they expanded their northern empire. See the popular account, "The Lion of Ireland," by Morgan Llewyllen, and "The Princes of Ireland," by Edward Rutherfurd, Chapter 5. The Internet web site http://www.magoo.com/hugh/irishkings.html#pedigrees (2002) states: Also King of Munster. Son of Ceinneidigh (Cennetig or Ceinnetich, Kenneidi) King of Thomond), son of Lorcan (Lorccain) (mac Lachtnae (lachtnai) macCorcc (Cuircc)), son of Corc, son of Annluan, son of Mathgamhain, son of Toirrdhealbach, son of Cathal, son of Aodh Caomh, son of Conall, son of Eochaidh Bailldhearg, son of Carthann Fionn, son of Blod, son of Cas, son of Conall Eachluaith, son of Lughaidh Meann, son of Cas, son of Conall Eachluaith, son of Lughaidh Meann,l son of Aonghus Tireach, son of Fear Corb, son of Mogh Corb, son of Cormac Cas (brother of Eoghan Mor), son of Oilill Olum. Brian was married to Gormflaeth ingen Murchada MacFinn, daughter of Morough MacFinn, King of Leinster. She was was "famed for her six marriages." Brian was killed in the victory over the Danes at Clontarf (Cluaintarbh) on Good Friday in 1013 (or 1014). Maelseachlainn Mor #174 fought with Brian in the battle, and he led the rout of the Danes after the death of Brian. One of eight kings of the Ui Neill, and four of other dynasties, called a 'king of Ireland' by the Annals of Ulster. (Byrne p. 256)" Cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Boru.

==========================

Record of the Rust Family Author: Albert D. Rust Texas. 1891 Call Number: CS71.R97: "June 1635 Thomas Jason is to have two acres for a planting ground on Weary-All-Hill on the north side coming to the sea." [Daniel Fop joins Thomas Jason on the westward, John Farrah joins Fop on the west-ward.] "Henry Rust is to have two acres for planting ground next to John Farrah to the westward upon the same hill, be it more or less as it is measured." Then Thomas Lincoln has two acres joining Rust to the west-ward.(*)

March 5, 1637. Henry Rust received his proportion from the town of meadow and upland of Nantascus Division; 39 recipients, "Henry Rust received one acre of meadow and five acres of upland."(+)

"March 23, 1637. These nine men hereafter mentioned being freemen of the town be chosen and deputied by the whole body of freemen to agitate and determyne concerning any general business within the town except it be the making of any Rates, unless they be newly chosen in a legal way, or receiving in of any person to be an inhabitant into the town that is to say Edmont Hubbard, the older, Clement Bate, Nicholas Jacob, Henry Tuthill, Henry Rust, Thomas Hammon, Anthony Fames. Samuel Ward and Thomas Underwood. and hare full ?? put into their hands to agitate and to det?? of all such business as shall concerne the town within the ?? -- to give, grant, let and set all and every ?? cel of the same to the good of the whole, ?? to the best wisdom and skill for one whole yest after the date hereof."(*)

NOTE.--It appears that the new towns claimed title to the land wherever they settled and it was apportioned to whoever the selectmen or other proper authorities thought best; sometimes by lot, sometimes by selection by the authorities and sometimes by vote of the town, but it must be remembered that to constitute one a voter he must be a freeman, and to constitute him a freeman be must be a member of some Congregational church.

August 14, 1637. "Great lots" were given by the ?? men as follows: "Henry Rust ??

February 16, 1638. "Henry Rust with five others was chosen to make rates."

"The name of Henry Rust appears among the first settlers of Hingham about 1636. Henry Rust by joynt consent have five acres to his house lot which be bought of George Russell next to Clement Bate on the ?? side and three acres of planting ground upon Weary All Hill which he bought with his bouse lot and next John Farrah; and three acres to a planting lot. upon the ?? to the west of the ware. And two acres of march at layford's Liking next to John Smart and is to ?? all ?? several parcels of land to be and to his ?? for ever, be it more or less as it is measured."(+)

As to his home in the old world, the following, from the N. E. Hist. and Gen. Register for April. 1876, is submitted as conclusive:

"On the 26 of April, 1638, the ship Dilligent, of Ipswich,' England, of 350 tons burden, John Martin, Master, set sail from the mouth of the Thames for Massachusetts Bay having on board nineteen families and six or eight single persons, in all one hundred and thirty-three. Twelve of these families, numbering eighty-four souls, were from old Hingham, the rest from the immediate vicinity; and they had all embarked for the purpose of joining a colony settled in Hingham, Mass., 1633-37 (consisting of ten families and five single persons, in all forty-nine) who had been their friends and born in old Hingham."

"The rector of the parish, Rev. Rob't Peck with his family consisting of wife, two children and two servants, also formed a part of the company," In same volume we learn that "The party having landed at Boston, Mass., Aug. 10, 1638, immediately proceeded to their place of destination about fourteen miles S. E. from Boston." From the above we deduce the facts that at the time of this accession the total population of Hingham was forty-nine and that Henry Rust must have been one of that number. We also learn that the first colonists at Hingham, among whom was Henry Rust, came from old Hingham, Norfolk county, England, or its "immediate vicinity."

In 1645 be was appointed for "ye recording births and buruals in Hingham in the room of Mr. Peck;" but be must soon have removed to Boston as he was admitted to be an inhabitant of that place March 31, 1651.

(Manheim, Pa.: John Conrad Weiser Family Association, 1960).
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Conrad_Weiser,_Sr. which reports: "Johann Conrad Weiser was born in 1662 in Gross Aspach, Württemberg, Holy Roman Empire to Jacob Weiser, an innkeeper, and his wife, Anna Trefz. Johann married Anna Magdalena Uebele and they had a total of fifteen children. He served as a corporal in the army of the Holy Roman Empire, and fought in the Nine Years' War of 1688 to 1697 between a coalition of European powers and France. He was a member of the Württemberg Blue Dragoons, and was stationed at Affstätt, Herrenberg, Württemberg in the 1690s. Soon after the birth of Conrad Jr., the Weisers moved back to their ancestral home of Gross-Aspach. Afterwards, he followed the trade of a baker. Weiser and his family were German Palatines who fled Germany because of the destruction of crops by invading French armies, and the icy cold winter of 1708-09; Weiser's wife Anna Magdeleana died suddenly of an attack of the gout while pregnant with their fifteenth child on May 1, 1709. On June 24, 1709, Weiser and eight children, moved away from Great Aspach. His married daughter, Catrina, stayed behind with her husband, Conrad Boss and two children. Weiser sold his house, fields, meadows, vineyard, and garden to Conrad and Catrina, for 75 gulden. The Weisers, along with over 15,000 other Palatines, left their homeland and traveled west to the Rhine River, and then down the Rhine into the Netherlands. As the number of German refugees increased, the Dutch decided to send them to England. In late summer 1709, the Weisers arrived in London, along with thousands of other Germans. Queen Anne of Great Britain was sympathetic toward the German Palatines, and allowed them to stay in England. However, as their numbers grew, the Board of Trade and Plantations prepared a plan to send them to America, where the Crown promised them free land after they worked off their passage by producing naval stores. The Weisers remained in England for a few months. They left England December of 1709 on the Lyon, one of ten ships carrying about 3,000 people to America, including Weiser and his family. The Lyon arrived in New York on June 13, 1710. After being held in quarantine to let ship diseases run their course, the surviving refugees were taken up the Hudson River to Livingstone's manor. Despite being promised free land, the Germans were required to work for several years to pay for their transportation expenses. The Germans were also forced to pay rent for their property. The Germans were divided into five camps, and Weiser was appointed to be in charge of one. The Germans were to produce tar from the trees, but they were unsuitable. Weiser took the Germans' complaints to Robert Hunter, the colonial governor of New York. In 1711, the English conscripted German Palatines to fight the French in northern New York. Weiser served as a captain in one of the Palatine contingents. Upon their return, the Palatines discovered that their families had nearly starved in their absence. Again, Weiser led the Palatines in complaining to Governor Hunter. In 1711, Weiser remarried to Anna Margaretha Müller. His children disapproved of the marriage, and Conrad Jr. wrote, "It was an unhappy match, and was the cause of my brothers and sisters' all becoming scattered." In the fall of 1713, Weiser and his family reached Schenectady. They stayed at the home of John Meyndert during the winter of 1713-14. The Mohawk, part of the Iroquois Confederacy, helped the German Palatines throughout the winter, in which they earned their trust. After negotiating with the Mohawk, the Germans were given permission to move further west in the valley. In the spring of 1714, with the help of Mohawk Indians, Weiser led his family, along with about 150 other families to Schoharie, located 40 miles (64 km) west of Albany. At this time, a Maqua chief visited Weiser, and suggested that his son, the younger Conrad, go with him and learn the Maqua language, and he did. The Germans who settled here were very poor to start out with. At Schoharie, they grew corn, potatoes, and ground beans to get through the following year. Life was harsh, and families sometimes went two or three days without food. Eventually, multiple villages in the area sprang up, more food was grown, and thus life improved and people no longer starved. But, despite the fact that Hunter had let the Germans go free, he threatened the Germans not to move to Schoharie, or he would see it as rebellion. The government of New York was displeased with the Germans, despite having left New York. In 1715, Hunter sent an agent, Adam Vrooman, to Schoharie, to make deeds for the Palatines, although the Mohawk had granted them the land. The Palatines were resistant, and the land that the Germans had settled on in Schoharie was taken away and granted by Hunter to seven landlords. The German deputies were stripped of their titles, and the promise of free land by Queen Anne was ignored. Hunter authorized a warrant for Weiser's arrest, after Vrooman complained of mistreatment while in Schoharie, but Weiser escaped. This brought an uproar, and the Germans rebelled. They drove out the sheriff who was sent from Albany, and became increasingly hostile to the government. After five years of hostility between the Germans and the New York government, the German Palatines decided to send representatives to appeal to the Board of Trade in London. The community sent three men to represent them: Johann Conrad Weiser, Wilhelm Scheff, and Gerhardt Walrath. Hunter and his allies worked on a compromise to prevent the men from leaving. Because Hunter had threatened to arrest Weiser, the three commissioners decided to leave from Philadelphia instead of New York. They departed the city in 1718, but fell into the hands of pirates in the Delaware Bay. They lost their personal money, but not that of the colony. They were released and left without money and suitable clothing. The ship stopped at Boston for more supplies. The commissioners finally arrived in London and found that Queen Anne had died. The new monarch, King George I, was not interested in their case. Hunter had sent agents to England, who portrayed the Germans as rebels and enemies to the Crown. Progress was slow for the representatives. During this time, Walrath grew tired of waiting and embarked for home, but died at sea. Later, Weiser and Scheff were imprisoned for debt. They wrote for help, but their letters were intercepted. Finally, word reached Schoharie and the community collected money for their redemption. After months of waiting, their debts were paid. In July 1720, Weiser and Scheff petitioned to the Board of Trade. By this time, Hunter had resigned as governor and took a position in Jamaica. The newly commissioned Governor of New York, William Burnet, was ordered to grant land to the Germans. In 1723 he completed what was called the Burnetsfield Patent, whereby 100 heads of families received about 100 acres (0.40 km2) each on the north and south sides of the Mohawk River west of present-day Little Falls. Weiser and Scheff were dissatisfied and had a falling out in 1721. Refusing to follow Weiser, Scheff returned home but died six months later. Weiser returned to North America in 1723. He decided to migrate to the colony of Pennsylvania. In 1723, William Keith, Baronet Governor of Pennsylvania, was in Albany on business when he heard about the suffering of the Germans in New York. He invited them to the colony of Pennsylvania. With the help of the Mohawk, Weiser led a group of Germans from Schoharie south to the Susquehanna River; they traveled along Indian paths and by canoe to present-day Tulpehocken in the spring of 1723. Weiser was unhappy with many of his fellow Germans, and returned to New York a few years later. He wandered around New York for several years. Conrad Jr. brought him to the home of his grandsons in Pennsylvania in May 1746, where he died soon after. Johann Conrad Weiser and Anna Magdalena Ubelin had 16 children, of which 13 are known: Maria Catharine Weiser (who married Conrad Boss and remained in Gross Aspach); Anna Margarete Weiser; Anna Magdalena Weiser (who married Jan Johannes De Lange); Maria Sabina Weiser; Johann Conrad Weiser, Jr. (who became a pioneer, interpreter, and diplomat in Pennsylvania); George Frederick Weiser; Christopher Frederick Weiser; and Anna Barbara Weiser (who married Nicholas Pickard). John Frederick Weiser, Rebecca Weiser), John Frederick Weiser (later children were frequently named after one who had died), Erhard Frederick Weiser, and Rebecca Weiser all died young, the second John Frederick while the family was at the work camp at Livingston Manor."
