Cf. http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands which offers: "Hubert de Burgh (-Banstead, Surrey 12 May 1243, bur London, Church of the Black Friars). He was appointed Chamberlain to John Comte de Mortain (the future John King of England) in or before 1198, holding the office until 1205 except for a brief interlude after the return of King Richard I and before the latter's death. He was seriously wounded at the siege of castle of Chinon in Normandy in 1205, which may account for the loss of his public offices and his temporary disappearance from the records. He remained a powerful supporter of King John, siding with the king against the barons at the signing of Magna Carta in 1215. He successfully defended Dover Castle against Louis de France who had invaded England in 1216, and was a party to the treaty of peace made with Louis 11 Sep 1217 before he left England. Hubert became the most powerful official in England during the minority of King Henry III and was created Earl of Kent 19 Feb 1227 immediately after the king came of age. His downfall came in 1232, when he was deprived of his Earldom and imprisoned in the Tower. He was pardoned and restored in 1234, but thereafter took little part in public life.

Virginia Horler's notes:
On May 11, 1843 Sarah Jane Watts married George F. Palmer in Portland, Maine (Vital Records Film 0010584 for Bangor, Maine). Sarah's husband had apprenticed as a tin-smith and worked as such in Bangor (see City Directories 1843, 1846, 1848 and 1851). Their first three children were born in Bangor beginning with George McKenzie in 1846, Annie Mary in 1847 and Alpheus Winter in 1849.
The 1850 Census lists this family twice: in Bangor, Maine and in Portland, Cumberland, Maine. In Bangor George was a tinner and in Portland he was a stove dealer (6th Ward page 186-187).
George moved his family to Woodstock, Carleton County, New Brunswick between 1851 and 1856. On May 14, 1859 The Carleton Sentinel Newspaper carried a notice that George F. Palmer had made eight ballot boxes for the Municipality of Carleton County. On November 24, 1859 the Woodstock Journal printed the following: "NOTICE - - Parties indebted to GEORGE F. PALMER (formerly Tin-Smith in this place) are requested to call and pay their several accounts to the Subscriber, who is duly authorized to colect the same, and give receipts therefor. John C. Winslow, Atty-at-Law. Woodstock, Oct. 1, 1859." Correspondent Greg Campbell at the L. P. Fisher Public Library in Woodstock (geosearchus@yahoo.com) was unable to find a death notice or cemetery transcription.
Husband George died likely from tuberculosis at age 42.
On May 16, 1864 the Carleton Sentinel printed the following: "On the morning of the 8th, after a short illness, Mrs. Sarah J. Palmer, relict of the late George F. Palmer, aged 39 years, leaving seven small children to mourn their loss." Note that her age at death was understated as she would have been about 44 years of age.
Woodstock : County seat Population 4,631. Incorporated in 1856. Situated at the confluence of the Meduxnekeag and the Saint John River and was settled by Loyalists in 1784 after the American Revolution. Was this town named after Sir Walter Scott's novel "Woodstock" or "Woolastook"? "Woolastook" was the original Indian name for the Saint John River. De Monts and Champlain, the French explorers, christened the river Saint John when they discovered the mouth on Saint John the Baptist's day 24 June 1604. Population 18,000 Woodstock, NB. 1867. The current population is about 4,000.
George was the third child and second son of Asher and Mary Ann Palmer. He was born in Camden, Maine in what was Lincoln County, later Waldo County, and now Knox County. His father, Asher, was a blacksmith and George and his older brother, Asher Junior, were both apprenticed as tin plate workers.
His middle name may be "Fulman" or "Fulmer" which was his mother's maiden name (Marriage record in Camden-Rockport Town Records, LDS film 0012046). It may also have been "Foster" as both a son and grandson had this as a middle name.
George's father, Asher, died in St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada and was buried at the Methodist Church there in May 1926 when George was eight years old. (Kirk McColl Burial Records)
According to Bangor Probate Records, on April 29, 1834, Preserved B. Mills (a physician in Bangor) was appointed guardian of George F. Palmer of Bangor, who was described as a minor over the age of 14 years. The filing of a probate would indicate that father Asher had left an estate to his two eldest sons, Asher, Jr. and George F. Father Asher was listed as a blacksmith, late of Calais, Washington County, Maine. An earlier probate record dated September 29, 1829 for George's older brother, Ashur E. Palmer, stated that father Ashur died in St. Stephen, New Brunswick.
There is a listing for a Mary Palmer in the 1830 and 1840 Census in Bangor without a husband and apparently running a boarding house as there are a number of people living in her household. No young boys lived with her.
On August 20, 1838 George F. Palmer served on a committee for the Bangor Fire Department for Engine No. 2 (Bangor Whig and Courier).
The Town Records of Bangor, Maine list the marriage of George F. Palmer to Sarah Jane Watts in Portland, Cumberland County, Maine in May 1843 (Film 0010584, page 428). Both George F. and Sarah Jane were literate.
Bangor Daily Whig and Courier, September 12, 1843: " Lieutenant George F. Palmer having been appointed to the office of Adjutant of this Regiment, he will be obeyed and respected as such." (First Regiment of the Bangor Militia)
According to the 1843 Bangor, Maine, City Directory, George F. Palmer worked as a tinplate worker and boarded with (his mother), Mrs. Palmer on Washington Street. In 1846, he was listed as a "tinman" at E. Ellison and he and his wife were boarding with Mrs. Mary Palmer, a widow, on High Street. Their first child, George M. Palmer, was born this year. In the 1848 Directory, George F. Palmer was listed as a tin plate worker at H. A. Wood & Co. and lived in a house on Boyd Street.
1850 Census Bangor, Penobscot, Maine page 19: Geo Palmer (30) tinner, $1,000; Sarah (28); Geo (5); Mary (3) and Charles (1). Also living with them was George's sister, Mary (Palmer) Pray. Mary had married John Pray in Bangor in 1841, but he is not evident in any census from 1850 on, so either Mary was a young widow or a divorcee. Son Charles is either a son who died very young or the name written for Alpheus W. (see Portland, Maine census below).
The 1850 Census for Bangor (page 154) shows that George F. Palmer's guardian, Dr. Preserved B. Mills lived next door to Phineas Frost Marston. Phineas Marston would marry (his second marriage) George F.'s sister, Mary Frances (Palmer) Pray in 1865 in San Francisco, and Phineas and Mary Frances would raise George F. and Sarah Jane's daughter, Henrietta, in their Fruitvale, Oakland, California home after she became an orphan.
The 1851 Bangor Directory lists George F. Palmer as a tin plater living on Boyd Street in Bangor, this may have been written up before the family moved to Portland, Maine.
The 1850 Census also lists George F. Palmer and his wife Sarah living in Portland, Maine where George was a stove dealer. Their three children: George M., Ann M., and Alpheus W. Palmer (6th Ward page 186-187).
George moved his family to Woodstock, Carleton County, New Brunswick between 1850 and 1856. On February 5, 1859 The Carleton Sentinel Newspaper carried a notice that G. F. Palmer had made eight ballot boxes for the Municipality of Carleton County. The account was dated February 1, 1858 and the amount paid to George was 1 pound 4 shillings (8 ballot boxes @ 3s).
On November 24, 1859 the Woodstock Journal printed the following: "NOTICE - - Parties indebted to GEORGE F. PALMER (formerly Tin-Smith in this place) are requested to call and pay their several accounts to the Subscriber, who is duly authorized to collect the same, and give receipts therefor. John C. Winslow, Atty-at-Law. Woodstock, Oct. 1, 1859." Correspondent Greg Campbell at the L. P.

On 31 October 1860 George F. Palmer was baptized as an adult by St. James's United (Methodist) Church in Woodstock. No Palmer children were baptized at the same time. (F1056 PANB) No children of George and Sarah Palmer were baptized at the United Church in the 1850's. (LDS Film 1412411 which is incomplete but does have George F.'s adult baptism)
According to his daughter, Henrietta (Palmer) Steere, her father died before her birth date of 30 November 1860. She wrote that George was "tubercular," so he probably died at age 42 of tuberculosis.
On May 16, 1864 the Carleton Sentinel printed the following: "On the morning of the 8th, after a short illness, Mrs. Sarah J. Palmer, relict of the late George F. Palmer, aged 39 years, leaving seven small children to mourn their loss." (NOTE: Sarah would have been age 43 or 44)
