[7290] living - details excluded
[8870] Prudence is daughter of Elmer Hostetler (1868-1963) and Edith Lyle Bixler (1877-1955).
Find A Grave Memorial 138104705 provides his children and offers:
William Masters Sr. acquired "Discovery," the plantation on which he made his home, on 12 December 1720 from Charles Beale. [Rent Rolls, 4: 406A, Maryland Archives] In the Rent Rolls [4:383] "Discovery" is described as being on *the north side of Oxon Creek.* "Oxon Creek is a cove on the Potomac River which straddles the border between Washington, D.C. and Prince George's County, Maryland just north of Interstate 495…." [Wikipedia, "Oxon Creek."]
In a deposition by Daniel Kelley in 1721/22, William's plantation is located at the *mouth of the Eastern Branch* (that is, the Anacostia River). [Prince George's County, Md., Land Records, I: 124-125 (6 June 1721)]
In William's deed of part of "Discovery" to William Jr. in 1755, "Discovery" is located on the *south side of the Eastern Branch of the Potomac River.* [Prince George's County Land Records, NN:342-343 (15 Feb. 1755)]
* This would put "Discovery" in the southeastern quadrant of present-day District of Columbia,* rather than in present-day Montgomery Co.
In 1765 William purchased a seat in pew number 7 in Addison's Chapel, a "chapel of ease" on the *Eastern Branch* created to permit worshippers to congregate nearer their homes and not have to travel to the church on Broad Creek, indicating that William Sr. still was living on "Discovery." [Vestry Records of St. John's Episcopal Church-Broad Creek, King George's parish, vestry records, vol 1, p. 94, copy received September 2001 from Jean R. Anderson, Parish Secretary.]
On your Find A Grave entry, you have William Sr., William Jr., Robert, and Robert's wife Mary buried at "Plantation Discovery" Dickerson, Montgomery Co., but "Discovery" was not at Dickerson. William Sr. and William Jr. died at Discovery-in present-day D. C. Is it likely they were transported up the river rather than being buried at Broad Creek Church where they were members?
The plantation that William Sr. gave to Robert was "Thorofare" or "Thoroughfare," the metes and bounds of which begin "bounded by a box Elder standing near the last end of a fair Island standing in potomack called Fair Island…." [Prince George's County Land Records, T:526-528 (15 Sept 1737)] This was in Frederick Co., most likely in the part that became Montgomery in 1776. Robert and Mary likely were buried there, but apparently there is some dissent on this? You write on Robert's Find A Grave memorial: "Records shows that he was buried in this cemetery ["Discovery"]. Until I find differently, I will keep him in this cemetery."
* I will be grateful if you would identify those records for me, as I continue to be interested in anything that will enable me to better document the Masters family.*
By the way, William Sr. could not sign his name. "W" was the mark he used, not his middle initial.

[13084] "New England Ancestors" Vol.5, No. 3 (summer 2004), p. 10-11: "Dinah, the daughter of Richard and Naomi Sylvester, was born in Plymouth Colony in 1642. At the age of nineteen, she falsely accused a neighbor of witchcraft, swearing she'd seen her transform into a bear. This event occurred thirty years before the Salem witchcraft hysteria and Plymouth officials were more thoughtful in their handling of the charge. Dinah's allegation is the only one on record in Plymouth and during her interrogation by the court, she admitted she'd made the whole thing up and was fined 5 pounds in court costs. The false accusation cost her a fiance who broke their engagement because of friendship with the family of the wrongly accused neighbor. Dinah sued him for damages in court and won 20 pounds - but apparently never regained his heart. Plymouth records indicate she never married and lingering rancor over the breech of promise led to other disputes between the two families. Dinah was later named in a fornication allegation and in 1669 was back in court again, this time charging another man with the paternity of her child. - Sherry Sylvester Ramsey"
