[24047] Her mother's obituary reports that Elizabeth is wife of Charles Chapman and r. Detroit, MI. Known as "Betty," she had Sharon Aratari by her first husband and Bruce Chapman (m. Lona ______ and had Rob Chapman [stationed at Sheppard AFB, Texas in 1970]).
[41945] Ancestry.com offers: "Griffin Name Meaning - Welsh: from a medieval Latinized form, Griffinus, of the Welsh personal name Gruffudd (see Griffith). English: nickname for a fierce or dangerous person, from Middle English griffin 'gryphon' (from Latin gryphus, Greek gryps, of Assyrian origin). Irish: Anglicized (part translated) form of Gaelic Ó Gríobhtha 'descendant of Gríobhtha', a personal name from gríobh 'gryphon'."
[13509] Simon was b. ca. 1450. Source: "The History of Martha's Vineyard, Duke County, Massachusetts," Charles Edward Banks, M.D. (Assistant Surgeon General U.S.P.H.S.) publication: Published by the Dukes County Historical Society, 1925, Vol. I, page 106: "Simon Mayow, Gent., of Dynton, com. Wilts. The name of Mayhew and the Vineyard are almost synonymous, and it will be interesting as well as instructive to learn something of the family which exercised such a sway over the early destinies of our island. As an English family name it is most frequently met with in the South and West of this island, and few parish registers in the Counties of Hereford, Gloucester, Wilts and Dorset can be opened without presenting us with examples. It is spelt in many ways, varying from the extended form of Mayhowe to that of Mao, and often, as it will frequently appear, clipped down and reduced to May to the loss of its concluding syllable. An early occurrence of the name, and in its extended form, is found in Glover's Roll of Arms, supposed by Sir Harris Nicholas to date from between 1245 and 1250. Herbert le Fitz Mayhewe is there mentioned as bearing "party d'azur & de goulz one trois leonseaux rampant d'or," and Woodward in his History of Wales, page 415, narrates that account to the old copy of S. Davids Annals. The Welsh slew Sir Herbert Fitz-Mahu apparently in 1246, near the castle of Morgan Cam. The same Roll of Armas gives the clue to the origin of the name as a Christian name; in the case of Mahewe de Lovayne, Mayhew de Columbers and Maheu de Redmain. There can be little doubt that it is here a softened form of Matthew. Bardsley in his "English Surnames" mentioned two other instances, Adam fil. Maheu, and Mayhew de Basingbourne, from the Parliamentary Writs. Lower, (Patronymica Brittannica, 219, 221) takes the same view. Shakespeare in King "Lear" Act III, scene 4, says: "The Prince of Darkness is a Gentleman Modo he's called and Mahu." Children of Simon MAYHEW and _____: (1) Robert MAYHEW. Born 1480, Lexington, England. Died 1520, Tisbury, Wilts., England. Married Joan BRIDMORE, born ABT 1480, Tisbury, Wilts., England, daughter of John BRIDMORE.
