Notes

Note 1

wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com

Sources: 1. Title: Descendants of Francis Le Baron of Plymouth, Mass.

Author: By Mary Le Baron Esty Stockwell

part of my confidence in the line from Marquerite DeWolf Theobald thu Caroline Dexter DeWolf to Francis LeBarron De Wolf it that Peggy Wiemers <Marquerite Theobald Lloyd> lived with grandparents John Eager Lloyd and Marquerite DeWolf Theobald from very early child hood until she married after high school. It is reasonable that her interest in family genelogy and knowledge of her ancestors came from that time with grandparents.

Peggy pointed out the DeWolf family tree in "Mount Hope" and knew her line of descent was thru #84 "Don Marcos" DeWolf and #25 Captain Jim DeWolf.

Note 2

unable to find in 1850 census.

Note 3

from History of the Dewolf Family, Perry , 1902

page 38 The proud Mrk Anthony had married Sophia Chappotin of a French refugee family from Martinique; and the writer can remember how on the streets of Baltimore, where in old age she lived with her granddaughter, Mrs. Theobald, men would stop and admire her stately carriage and her graceful French manners, which she retained as an octogenarian..
