Arthur is at York, Maine in 1637; Constable, 1640 & 1657; Alderman, 1641; Provost Marshall, Lt. 1652 & 1658; 9 years Grand Juryman, 1649-69; Selectman, 1653 & 1655. For further information: "Four Generations of Bragdons," by Ivan E. Sawyer, in "Downeast Ancestry," Vol. 3, No. 4, pp. 18-21, in which Arthur Bragdon's baptism is given as 17-July-1586. Arthur had a grant in York, ME in 1666. He took the oath of allegiance 22 March 1680. See further information in "Penbscot Pioneers," Philip Howard Gray (Camden: Penobscot Press, 1994), pp. 24-25. Also see "The Pioneers of Maine and New Hamphsire, 1623-1660," Charles Henry Pope (Baltimore, MD: Clearfield Co., reprinted 2002), pp. 23-24
Sheila Chlotiel Work (clogena@mail.man.1stnet.com) via Internet 4/97: In an article of which I have a copy it states "In a deposition Arthur Bragdon states his age which places his birth in 1597 and he was therefore 81 years old when he died. His wife's name was Mary, but there is nothing to suggest her family name or connection.....it further states A. B. left issue three sons. No daus. are known." This article has his signature and states he was undoubtedly a native of Stratford upon Avon, County Warwick. The men were butchers, same as followed by John Shakespeare, and Arthur Bragdon must have known the Bard of Avon, for he was 19 yrs. old when Shakespeare died. This statement is made on circumstantial evidence arising on the existence of a Bragdon family living in Shakespeare's parish, whose sons carried the names of Arthur and Thomas as did the York family and the only Bragdon family found in England which bore these Christian names. It is stated that another res. of Stratford was an early emigrant in Maine, settling in the adjoining town of Kittery. At this period business communication was common between towns in Warwickshire by means of navigation of the Severn, and Bristol was probably the port from which he emigrated. A.B. is first of record here in 1636 as witness to the sale of property [Deeds xxvi, 83]. This land was situated on Bass Cove. This grant was contested by Godfrey as to the extent of its bounds, and arbitrators Richard Vines and Henry Josselyn awarded the case in favor of Bragdon which was confirmed by Godfrey 1/21/1643, making the limits of his land on the NE to the path leading from the Plantation to Christian Point [Deeds x, 173]. He was constable of Agamenticus in 1640, and alderman 1641 under the first charter. [rec'd from Arlene E. McFarland, Whiting, Iowa - I looked her original letter in 1984 - and she states this was a photostat from an Ivan Sawyer sent to her in 1977 who used to live in another state and she lost contact with him - probably from a well-known book (possibly James Savage, but not sure which one).] The birth date conflicts as follows: the 1586 birth date was a christened date submitted in Downeast Ancestry, Vol. 3, Issue 4, Dec. 1979 - article contributed by Ivan E. Sawyer, 2807 Hansen Circle, Bellevue, Neb. 68005 [unknown when he contributed it]. He states that Arthur was son of Thomas Bragdon, Stratford on-Avon, England, d. fall of 1678, York, ME, will admitted 10/2/1678 - m. 1st-Joan Gold, no issued ; m. 2d - Mary ____, Ch. Thomas b. ab. 1640, York, Me., d. 10/14/1690, son Arthur b. 1645, York, Me., d. 10/14/1690 and Samuel Bragdon b. 1647, York-d. 1712; Birth dates also from "Pioneers on Maine River...," Wilbur D. Spencer; "Gen. Dict. of ME & NH"; "ME Hist. & Gen. Record," S. M. Watson. A 1598 birth date was from "Pioneers on Maine Rivers to 1651"
Cf. http://www.one-barton-family.us/genealogy/viva/d1619.html and http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/l/e/d/Patricia-B-Ledoux/GENE6-0002.html (not verified). For more information, see "History of York, Maine," Banks, Charles Edward (Baltimore: Regional Publishing Co., 1967) Vol. I, pp.106-107, map opposite p. 254 (which shows his property along both side of the river and adjoining Bass Cove, and p. 325 which lists his grandson Arthur Bragdon as Captain of the company at York in 1724 during the 4th "Indian War"). Regarding Arhur's wife: For a discussion of her identity, see "Penobscot Pioneers" (1994), pp. 24-25. Her given name is from her waiver of dower rights on a deed in 1661 ("Gen. Dict. of ME & NH," p. 105). She may be Mary Garde, baptized 1 Feb 1627, daughter of Roger Garde who as a widower arrived at York by 11 June 1637. Mary is shown (without proof) as mother of Arthur's children in the LDS Church's Ancestral File P341-Q8. Cf. http://www.plantagenetorganization.com/plant/PS18_258.html and http://genforum.genealogy.com/bragdon. http://homepage.mac.com/sikora/page10/page10.html offers: "Arthur Bragdon - From Maine Pioneers, 1623-60 - planter, York, constable in 1640; witnessed a deed July 3, 1647; took oath of allegiance to Mass. govt. 22 Nov. 1652, and was appointed lieutenant of the militia. 'Captains Grant and Bragdon are instructed to march to Narridgewock after the enemy, "Taking care that no Hostility be acted by you anywhere eastward of the Kennebeck River, but at Narridgewock, and that nothing be done on that side of the river contrary to the Cessation agreed on with the Penobscot Tribe. You may be very exact in your journal in noting down everything that is worthy of your observation, and send an account of your proceedings." (Letters of Col. Thomas Westbrook)'."

Bryner and the son of Jacob Bryner. Jacob's line is found on Page 174 of the book, "The Johannes Hench Family in America," starting with his son George Washington, who married Mariah Coder. Mr.Harry W. Lenig, a Perry County genealogist collaborated extensively on this book with Lee & Bernard Hench, Editors. The family of George Bryner and Susan Yohn is found on Pages 163-174, and are also listed on Susan Yohn Bryner's Memorial # 57275783 - for further clarification. There are at least seven George Bryner's - all with different birth and death dates, spouses and children. This source data is meant to clarify and set apart the two George Bryner's buried in Ebenezer Church Cemetery and to dispell misinformation being perpetuated that George Washington Bryner married Susan Yohn and somehow fathered children when he was only age nine and fourteen. George Bryner and Susan Yohn are my paternal second great grandparents. This George was the twin of Elizabeth Bryner, b. 30 Nov 1811, who married Samuel Grey. (JHFA, P.174)."

It was his wife, Kristin, who was the daughter of King Inge Steinkelson. Haralds mother, Gytha indeed, was, rather, the daughter of King Harald II of England. Also called Harald Known by Harald in the Scandanavian sources. Holy Nobleborn GreatPrince. Mstislav I Harald Vladimirovich, Prince of Novgorod, Great Prince of Kiev was the ancestor of the Mstislavichi (a rival family of the Ol'govichi, named for Oleg, son of Svyatoslav, thus both families stemming from Yaroslav the Wise). Also called Feodor. His baptism name was Theodore. Also called St. Mstislav of Rus. He was born on 1 June 1076. He was the son of Vladimir II Monomakh Vsevolodovich, Prince of Pereyaslavl, Smolensk, Chernigov, and Kiev and Gytha of Wessex. He was sent by his grandfather, the GreatPrince of Kiev, Vsevolod, to be prince of Novgorod when he was all but twelve years old circa 1088. Co-Ruler of Novgorod, Rus, between 1088 and 1093. He occupied his appanage-land, the Rostov throne, after the death of his grandfather in 1093. Prince of Rostov, Rus, between 1094 and 1095. He married Kristina Ingesdóttir, daughter of Inge "den äldre" Stenkilsson, Konung av Sverige and Elin of Skövde, circa 1095; His 1st. He gained a brilliant victory over his uncle, the Chernigov prince Oleg, who had killed his brother Izyaslav and attacked Rostov and Suzdal', which belonged to Prince Mstislav, in 1095. Prince of Novgorod, Rus, between 1095 and 1125. He campaigned against the Chud people again, and after a victory he restored at Novgorod the fortress -- "he made guarantee of Novgorod the Great" -- and he built out more extensively the lodgings for the Novgorod principality in 1116. He was summoned by his father to assist him and was transferred to Belgorod in 1117. Prince of Belgorod, Rus, between 1117 and 1125. He married Lyubava Dmitrievna of Novgorod, daughter of Boyer of Novgorod Dmitri Zavidich Possednik, in 1122; His 2nd.

He succeeded his father to the throne of Kiev on 19 May 1125. 15th Prince of Kiev, Rus, between 19 May 1125 and 1132. He gained a brilliant victory over the old enemies of Rus' -- the Polovetsians, driving them beyond the Volga, and those of the Polovetsian princes, who refused to ally with Mstislav, were dispatched to Greece circa 1126. He set the foundations of a stone church in the name of the GreatMartyr Theodore of Tyre (his patron saint), in memory of a victory gained over the Chernigov prince Oleg in 1128. He laid the foundations of a temple in honour of the Pirogoschsk Icon of the Mother of God, this after a successful campaign against Lithuania in 1131. He died on 15 April 1132 in Kiev, Rus, at age 55 years, 10 months and 14 days. He died during the Paschal Week.18,19 Mstislav I Harald Vladimirovich, Prince of Novgorod, Great Prince of Kiev was buried in the Church of St.Feodor, Rus. . He was buried in the temple of the GreatMartyr Theodore, built by him. The holy prince was venerated even during his earthly life. The copyist of the Mstislavovo Gospel called him noble and a lover of Christ. The preparer of the settings of the Mstislavovo Gospel, Naslav, wrote about him: 'Much toil and tribulation I experienced. But God did comfort me through the prayer of the good prince... God grant his prayer for all Christians'." Cf. http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/RUSSIA,%20Rurik.htm#MstislavVladimirovichdied1132B in 2007.
