Notes

ARTHUR GLADSTONE was born circa 1760 at Worchester County, Maryland. Arthur was a loyalist and served as a Private in the British Army during the Revolutionary War. It is said that he was captured at the battle of Yorktown and imprisioned at Fredericksburg, Vriginia. Arthur and his family were living in Fauquier County when the 1810 Federal Census was taken. One author says that the descendants of Arthur Gladstone changed their name to Gladson. The name Gladson will be used only where it is specifically used by a descendant.

Known children of Susannah "Susan"3 Hitt and Arthur GLADSTONE were as follows:

She married William Russell HITT, son of Benjamin HITT Rev. and Nancy Curnal, on 8 Apr 1832 at Culpeper County, Virginia. Germanna Record No. 5 gives the name William H.

She died on 12 Jun 1901 at Thornville, Perry County, Ohio, at age 88 ( Mahalia died of old age, at the age of 89 years, 11 months, and 3 days ).
