HOLLAND, Anthony?

Christening: 30 March 1641?Saint Nicholas, Deptford, London, England
Anthony was possibly "transported" from Turo or Cornwall England/Wales or Virginia. Transported doesn't always mean they were a criminal. It just means that someone brought them to a certain place, usually paying their expenses that they worked off as would an indentured servant.
Anthony was brought into Maryland from Virginia by Col. William Burgess. (Annapolis Liber 24.3). When transported he must have been a mere lad.
I have always interpreted this as meaning that when Burgess brought him to Maryland with him he was quite young. Back then the English especially used to put their sons with someone of prominence to train them for the future. This is what I feel happened here. I also feel that he was a Descendant of Gabriel Hollands line, but I will probably never be able to prove this. Cousin Margie from Maryland
???????????
Will from 1639 naming an Anthony HOLLAND as the husband of Mary RICHARDS and father of a Mary HOLLAND and an Anthony HOLLAND, Jr., from Suffolk, England.?Excerpts as follows:?Archdeconry of Suffolk 1639 page 365-366?
RICHARD RICHARDS of Medham, 29 June 1639?
...To ANTHONY HOLLAND of Metfield £25 and to his wife Mary £10, and to his son ANTHONY £5 and to his daughter MARGARITE £5, and to his daughter MARY who is testator's goddaughter, £10...?
...To goddaughter MARY HOLLAND, daughter of ANTHONY HOLLAND, Senior, one feather bed, coverlet, and one posted bedstead, now in the possesion of testator's nephew JOHN RICHARDS of Fressingfield...All wearing linen and woolen to be equally divided by the executor between ANTHONY HOLLAND, THOMAS and WILLIAM RICHARDS, the sons of testator's brother ROBERT, immediately on testator's death...?Proven at Bungay 9 January 1639.
Has anyone found any connections between William Holland and Francis Holland? They were both Vestry men, and both seemed to have owned the plantation "Holland Hills" at one time.
William Holland was involved also in the transfer of a servant and her Mulatto child to Anthony Holland in 1698-9. Has anyone run across this before?
????????
from: "St James'-Old Herring Creek Parish-- A history 1663-1799"?(page 19) after a short history of Colonel William Holland there is a footnote. It reads:?
Francis Holland came up from York County, Va., to Anne Arundel County about 1656. He is listed in the early records as a Justice of the Anne Arundel County Court. He died in 1684, leaving a wife, Margaret, and two children, a daughter, Margaret and a son Francis. He left to his children a large landed estate most of which descended to his daughter, as his son Francis died in 1687 without issue.
His wife married 2nd. between 1684 and 1691 Hugh Gill (See Vol. 1 pages 51, 173).
Margaret, the daughter, married her distant kinsman William Holland. This marriage has led to confusion among historians and genealogists, some listing William as son of Francis 1, and William's wife as the daughter of Hugh Gill; clarification of this matter is found in William Holland's will (Baldwin, Vol.VI, page 234) and in Lord Baltimore's Rent Rolls, 1700-1707, found at the d. Hall of Records. Colonel William Holland's second wife was Elizabeth ???, executrix of his will.? "Holland's Hills," 190 acres, "to the westward of Herring Creek Bay," surveyed for Francis Holland 1 in 1663, was inherited by his son Francis Jr., who sold it to Richard Harrison in 1685; now known as "Holly Hill," there is on the property a very old and charming plantation house listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It has been conjectured that the old Herring Creek Church was on this Harrison land.

Anthony Holland came into Ann Arundel County in 1650 and his transport was claimed by William Burgess, who was one of the movers and shakers of the early times and had brought a number of Quakers up from Virginia, which is apparently where Anthony Holland and Richard Gott (1) lived before Maryland. Burgess had a number of ships and it is possible Anthony Holland may have been a worker on one of them or he may have been a younger, perhaps orphaned member of the Quaker group who came from Virginia but did not pay his way. (From Rebecca Garret Patterson)
Anthony Holland made his will on February 12, 1702, and it was proved on August 2, 1703. He died a wealthy man with a personal estate amounting to 290.5.3 (pounds), plus 996 acres of land including 580 entailed acres of "Holland's Choice", lying in Baltimore County. (Per Allnutt, from "Wills,1703, 11/362-267, Maryland State Archives, Testamentary Papers, 1719, Box 25, folder 30.
Richard Gott of Baltimore County, Richard Holland of Prince George's County and Jacob Holland petitioned the General Assembly on June 21, 1747, to have the entail docked on "Holland's Choice". Although Anthony Holland had stated in his will that the "Holland's Choice" lay in Baltimore County, the Act of Assembly cutting the entail stated it was in Anne Arundel County. Jacob Holland owned 360 Acres of it and "being through misfortunes reduced to the necessity of selling...and conveying an estate in fee simple" prayed to be free of the entail (Archives of Maryland, XLVI pp290-291 and pp 326-328)
According to Dallam's "St. James Parish" pp 131-132, Anthony Holland left in servitude one particular servant, Katherin Worley with her mulatto child, conceived out of wedlock, whose punishment of servitude was sold to Holland by the minister and Vestry of St. James' Parish on April 25, 1699.
According to the Allnutt essay, William Burgess had transported Anthony Holland into the Province in 1650. Anthony served an indentureship of four to seven years to person(s) unknown and on 14 December 1672 claimed 50 acres of land for his time of service as was the custom. In forty two years of life in Anne Arundel County, Anthony Holland had prospered well. (see Maryland Patent Liber - hereafter cited as MPL - Q/32.
Anthony Holland, a Puritan, probably became a Quaker, though not an early one, perhaps being converted following George Fox's 1672 visits to the county. He appointed his "well beloved friends" (all Quakers) Benajmin Capell, Mordecai Price, William Richardson and Samuel Galloway, "executors of his will to "doe take upon the full Execution of this My Last Will and Testament and take under their care and Management my Youngest children and their Estates" (Of the four executors, Benjamin Capell was the closest relative. Capell had wed the widow of Thomas Parsons, Isabella (?) Parsons and thus was Anthony Holland's step Father-in-Law and step grandfather of the six children by Anthony's second wife, Isabel (Parsons) Holland. Capell had no children of his own and both Richard Gott and Anthony Holland named sons after him, i.e. Capell Gott and Capell Holland. Capell duly noted his namesakes in his will (see wills, 10 May 1711, 13/333-336, MSA).
Anthony Holland, Herring Creek, Anne Arundel County, February 12, 1702 will written-August 2,1703 will proved according to Baldwin's "Maryland Calendar of Wills". Testator has 4 tracts lying in Herring Creek Swamp obtained as follows: 120 a "Goldsborough" purchased from Robt. Goldsborough, May 10, 1677; 50 a. of "Great Nec", given to testator's deed, wife Isabell by will of her father Thomas Parsons; 120 a. "Holland's Range" purchased from Geo.
