Collins- writes, " the name of this family, variously written \'illcrs, \^illiers, Vileres, \"ylcrs, &c., is doubtless descended of the ancient noble house of Villers, Seigniours of Lile-Adam in Normandy, and came into England at the time of the conquest, in 1066; for soon after Pagan de Villars was Lord of Crosby, in county Lancaster and was also possessed of Ncwbold. in county Nottingham, which his posterity held till the reign of Edward III. This Pagan was a witness to the foundation-charter of Roger of Poictou to the monastery of Lancaster, and flour- ished in the reign of William II. and Henry I. Pagan de \"illars was father of Gilbert cle Villars, whose son, Robert, had issue, William, the father of John de Villiers, whose son, Alexander de Villiers, was Lord of Brookesby, in Leicester- shire, and by his attorney appeared against Gilbert de Glen, chaplain, in a plea against him, that he should pay eight marks, the arrears of an annual rent of four marks then owing. This Alexander was father to Sir Nicolas de Villers, a renowned warrior, who, in 1268, following Edward I. into the Holy Land, relin- quished his paternal coat of arms, viz. Sable, three Cinquefoils, Argent, in allusion to the Cinque foile, the ancient arms of Beaumont, Earl of Leicester, from whose grant this family became possessed of lands in Leicestershire, and instead thereof assumed the Cross of St. George, the patron of his country, and five Escallop- shells on it, to shew the cause of his expedition, Ijeing ancient badges of those Croissades."

Gwinn "Translation from the Flemish of an Extract from Henry Joseph Stier's Journal, folio 25, Book B., Anno 1803." My daughter Rosalie's account. My daughter Rosalie having married on the ii"". of June 1799, George Calvert at Annapolis, State of Maryland in America. On account of the Revolutionary' circumstances in the Netherlands it was impossible to make an equitable and proportional dotation ; we have determined therefore to give her the equivalent of what we have given our other chil- dren, which is a portion of what she will receive at the death of her parents. That is to say the goods and chatties that follow. The plantation, situated at Bladensburgh in America, with all the lands, woods and buildings, furniture etc., exactly as we have inhabited it, and have left it. We only except the pictures which we reserve for ourselves. We give the said plantation to her, in full possession and property as legitimate portion of what will come to her at our death. We estimated the said property at the price of one hundred thousand gulden, which sum equals forty thousand dollars. We give also bonds to the amount of 30,000 florins. A sum which equals what we have given to our other married children. In case these bonds should be annulled we promise to give her the said amount in other funds. Finally, in case our fortune should diminish in value we promise to give her a dotation equal to that given to our other children, amounting to 150.000 florins or yearly the sum of $4000, till complete payment of the said sum of 150.000 florins. On account of the troubled state of afi'airs at the time of her marriage, it was not possible to take legal measures to settle her marriage contract ; we give her in compensation an annual sum of $2000 to date from June 11'". 1799, till December 1803, tliat is to say for four years and six months. We have credited her with $gooa, of wliich sum she has already received $4,800, which leaves still due a balance of $4,200. 46 THE ANCESTRY OF Riversdalc, March i8, iSii. Henry J. Stier, Esquire. Antwerp. Dear Sir: The painful task devolves upon me of informing you of the death of my beloved wife and your much valued Daughter, after an illness of four months, confined to the bed the whole time ; and suffering great pain which she bore with the greatest fortitude and resig- nation, she left us on the 13 Instant at i o'clock, my only consolation was, that her last moments were easy and I think happy, for she said to me, " Oh how mercifull God is to me, I never could have supposed that I could die so easy." My Dear Rosalie's health had been bad for six years and upwards, I do not think in that time she enjoyed one week of good health at a time. We consulted the best Physicians that could be found in this Country, among them D'. Physick who is the most eminent and six others, but they could not minis- trate to her health. At the particular request of my most lamented wife I shall write to M". van Havre and inclose her a description of her case, drawn up by D'. Sim who has attended M'''. Calvert for many years and who was constantly with her in the latter part of her illness. Be assurred my dear Sir that nothing has been omitted by her afflicted husband that could either relieve or comfort Iier in all her illness With great Esteem and respect Yours Geo. C.m.vert Riversdale, Aug. i, 1821. Henry J. Stier, Esq'. My dear and Respected Sir: Your kind and very affectionate letter of June i, I received a few days ago. I have a great pleasure in informing you that my dear children are all well, Caroline is a great comfort to me, but yet I am as one lost, my home is no longer dear to me ; I have improved Riversdale very much, yet have no pleasure in any thing I have done, because I have no one to participate with me. I have lost my confidant, my ablest counselor, I am happy in my children, they are disposed to do any thing to please me, but they can in no way supply the loss. H I could leave my property (which I cannot at present do) I should certainly come to Europe and take my two eldest with me. George shall visit Europe as soon as his education is finished, which will be in two years. You inquired of my dear Caroline where her Mother was buried, the spot was selected by herself many years ago, on the rising ground N. W. of the house at about a quarter of a mile from it, where her four children were interred. I have had prepared at Philadelphia a handsome white marble stone to cover the grave with suitable inscriptions upon it. With sentiments of the most sincere esteem and respect I remain your affectionate son in law Geo : Culvert Antwerp the 25'". June iSii. George Calvert Esq'., Bladensburg, Maryland. Dear Sir: We hardly know what terms to employ for announcing one of the greatest misfortunes which could befall our family, the loss of our dearest father. He became unwell on the 8". in the evening and died at two o'clock in the evening of the 22''. of this inonth, at his country seat of the "Mick", in the midst of his children, having had the happiness to preserve his presence of mind till the last, he had time to prepare for the awfull moment and received the Sacraments with true Christian piety, fie was buried this morning at Aertselaer in the family tomb, where rests our dear Mother. ROSALIE MORRIS JOHNSON 47 The pain which this second stroke gives us all is easier felt than described, we will- ingly would attempt to offer you some motives of consolation but feel totally unequal to the task. In a few days when a little more collected we will write you again, in the mean time we remain Dear Sir Your affectionate and afflicted Brothers C. J. Stier J. M. A. V. Havre Antwerp the 28"'. June 1S21 Mess'. M'. Ewen, Hale and Davidson, Philadelphia. Gentr. We deem it our duty to acquaint you with the melancholy loss we have sustain'd by the death of our Dear Father Henry J. Stier Esq'. He supported the pains of a severe ill- ness of fourteen days with his wonted fortitude and died in the morning of the 22''. inst. We take the liberty of requesting you to forward the inclosed, it announces the melan- choly tidings to M'. G. Calvert. We remain with sincere esteem Your ob'. humble Serv". C. J. Stier J. M. A. VAN Havre .Antwerp the 10'". July 1821. George Calvert Esq'. Dear Sir: On the 25 of last month we wrote you the letter of which you have a copy at foot. Since beginning to look about us, we observe your absence or the want of a proper power of attorney of you, it is almost entirely out of our power to do the necdfull for our common interest, which if that situation was to last would suffer considerably, not only on account of the transactions in which your interference cannot be dispensed with but because the justice of peace has a right to put the whole under his seal and in that case we could not move any thing without his interference, which would cost an incalculable sum. In consequence, Dear Sir, we entreat you to come over as speedily as you possibly can, if however your health, the situation of your family, or your business should prevent your coming over, we must beg you to send us the inclosed power of attorney, executed in favor of one of those four persons: the Baron van der Werve de Schilde; his second wife was a sister of the mother of our dear Rosalia. M'. Antony Stier, brother of our late father, those two gentlemen are both upwards (consent) that you name them, to name them together, to act jointly or separately. The Baron I. J. J. Vinck de Wuestwezel, his mother was sister to our late father and his wife's father was brother of the same, he is a Member of our Provincial States and has been Member of our General States. M'. Albert Cogels, his mother was sister of our late father, he is a Banker, and has been Member of our General States. You have render'd us so many kind services that we think it our duty to offer our selves, should you adopt that measure, we beg you to name us both together, to act jointly or separately. Should you not be able to come over nor approve of sending a power of attorney you may send a confidential person with your power of attorney to act for you. Whatever means you adopt dont lose time but act as speedily as possible for a day lost may cost us more than you may be aware of. We beg leave to add that the easiest way of settling our aft'airs would be your coming 48 THE ANCESTRY OF over for you readily conceive tliere are many things which one may do himself to which an attorney cannot agree. In the meantime be assnrred, dear Calvert, we will spare no pains to promote our common interest. In a few days you will again hear of us. We remain as ever dear sir, Your very affectionate Brothers C. J. Stier and J. M. A. v.»lN H.wre Antwerp the 15 of Sept: 1821. G. Calvert, Esq'. Dear Brother: Your letters of the 4'". of June and 1*'. of August have been received as also those of Caroline by the way of Amsterdam, it is extremely painfull to us to think that shortly after having written those, you will have received ours of the 25'". of June, com- municating to you the irreparable loss we had sustained by the Death of our Dear Father; on the 10"'. July we wrote you again, begging you in case you should not come to Europe your self to send us without delay your power of attorney. This letter was repeated by duplicate on the 27'^ of July and again on the 10'". of August by copies of both, when we sent you an authentic copy of the will of our late Father. In the uncertainty whether it may have been possible for you to leave the U. S. A., and anxious for the sake of our common intrest to promote the liquidation of the inheritance, we beg you to send us as soon as possible a statement of the respective values of all the property our late Father died possessed of in America. You will observe that there being orphan children, the estimation must be made in a lawful! form and approved of by the guardian, the estimation of the several kinds of property must be that of their value on the 22''. of June last, date of the opening of the inheritance and of the inventory. If your journey to Europe was resolved upon but delayed on account of necessary preparations we beg you to send us at all events as a provisional means the power of attorney as well as the estimation ; the delay of those being calculated to produce the most pernicious consequences. We hope dear Brother etc. C. J. Stier and J. M. A. v.\n H.wre Philadelphia, Sept: 21, 1821. My dear Brothers: I have just returned to this place with my daughter Caroline from an excursion to Canada, we have been absent from home more than two months, Caroline's health has been delicate but I now hope she will enjoy as good health as she ever did, my other children are all well. George I left in Cambridge, where he has the reputation of being a very clever fellow. I fear he may be a little spoilt by the ladies as he is thought by them very hand- some, you shall see him as soon as he graduates. There is a request of yours in your last letter which if made in the first instance might have been complied with, that is, letting the dividends remain in the Bank, this I have not done, having made a great addition to the Riversdale Estate by the purchase of " Kop Tavern " and the erection of a very fine mill at Bladensburgh ; I have found it necessary to take most of dividends to enable me to make the payments, as they have all been employed for the benefit of my children and will be accounted for in the settleincnt. Caroline and I rejoice at the improvement of M". van Havre's health and pray it may be quite restored, I remain dear Brothers, Affectionately yours. To C J. Stier and Geo. C.\lvert J. M. A. van Havre. ROSALIE MORRIS JOHNSON 49 Antwerp, Jan. II"'. 1822. G. Calvert, Esq'. Dear Brother, Let me dear brother express my ardent wishes for your happiness and that of your children. . . . We tntst Dear Calvert that if it be possible for you to visit us you will not leave your Caroline and Eugenia and tlieir younger sister behind, it is only with you they could undertake such a journey while your sons may any time perform it by themselves and find it an easy task. . . . We entreat yon Dear Brother to take at our common expense a clerk to draw up the accotuits of all that has been done for our father and ourselves since the last accounts sent us by our dear Sister. On our part we have as early as the beginning of August sent out experienced persons to make estimations of the landed property; a rainy season such as we never experienced (that of 1816 excepted) has interrupted this task which will be resumed with the first post. The whole of the property in Europe belonging to both Paternal and Maternal inheri- tances exclusively of f. 130,000 or $52,000, held in dotation by M". van Havre and an equal sum held by my self inay at a rough calculation amount to the sum of 750,000 guilders or $300,000, nominal value, the real value of which will only be ascertained by the completion of the estimation. Again on a superficial view we find that on this side of the ocean there will be a landed property twice the value of what our father once held in America, that is to say twice the value of your house and lands of Bladensburg, Spurriens, Dorsey, Batlands etc., together. We intend dear Brotlier, to propose to you, that you should keep all tlie property in Lands in America and we all that of the same description in Europe, the latter consist in the house our Father inhabited in Antwerp, the castle of " Cleydael," the country seat of the " Mick," a tract of wood at Loenhout, and a farm at Contich, some smaller farms in different villages in the vicinity of the " Mick," three farms and some separate tracts of Lands in the lower grounds called " Poitiers." The remainder consists of mortgaged rents, obligations, public stock, all susceptible of an easy division. The magnificent Gallery of Pictures left by our Dear Father has been with us the matter of long consideration, that rare and beautiful collection is not susceptible of a division among us, one single portrait ; the " Chapeau de Paille," being worth as much as all the rest together, thus two lots only could be formed, and one of the three inheriting branches was to have no share, we finally resolved upon a public sale as a means which bringing forth the real value of the whole collection, left every one of the inheritors at full liberty either to acquire at the sale by making the highest offer, such particular parts as would please him, or if he had no such inclination, then to leave the contest to others. Not knowing Dear Brother whether you or your children may have any inclination to aim at the acquisition of any of those pictures, I beg you in case you should desire any, to communi- cate your intentions, I send enclosed a list of the whole on which you will easily discover some of those you have so long taken care of. I have as much as was in mj' power joined notes respecting their merits and price and will send you a more descriptive catalogue, if you think it proper Dear Brother, you will have the advertisement published in the U. S. A., where besides private amateurs it might fall in the plans of the Government to begin the formation of a National Museum, with pictures so genuine and so well known. In fact this extraordinary collection seems to be better calculated to be the splendid ornament of a palace or a National Gallery than to be modestly hidden within the narrow bounds of a Gentleman's dwelling. Hoping soon to have a letter from you I now Dear Brother embrace you most tenderly and also your dear children, for me, my wife and all your friends. Yours affectionately, C. J. Stier 50 THE ANCESTRY OF Antwerp, March 26'". 1S22. Dear Brother, We received yours of the 22°". of Dec. and 3 of Jan., last with the enclosed estima- tions of the property which our dear late Father was possessing in America on the 22°". of June last. Receive dear Calvert our thanks to you and your daughter for the care you have given to this investigation. . . . This information is the more essential as by the death of our Aunt Stier-Guyot, who died on the 11'". of March, the inheritance of her late husband Joseph Stier enjoyed by her during her life time is now devolved to the different branches of the family of Stier, seven in number; thus one seventh part on our late father, in whose name we are to amount with the family for $1000 new 6 per C, $11082.20 nominal 3 pr C. and 10 Alexandrian Bank shares, all belonging to that inheritance. After long and anxious e.xpectation we obtained on the end of last month the complete estimation of the land property in Europe, amounting to Guilders, 418,156.11 or $167,262.62. Our plan of division mentioned in my letter of the II'^ of Jan: was going to receive imme- diate execution when an illness of M". van Havre interrupted it. I hope we will soon be able to resume them. I enclose a list of the articles of Gold and Silver which being old fashioned will not sell above the value of the metal except the medals for which some amateurs may be found. Another list contains the jewels, the principal part of which as you will observe con- sist of Rose stones, flat bottomed, that kind of diamond is less valuable than the brilliant which latter is terminating in a point and is the diamond now in fashion. Neither the rings, bracelets or earrings could be worn in their present forms, if you or your children wish to have any of those objects at the prices joined please dear brother to give your directions either to M'. van Havre or myself. Neither he or I are in a situation to take any of the diamonds, as my wife has a complete set of brilliants and so has M". van Havre. In silver plate we also furnished our selves at the time of beginning house-keeping. Our dear Father after his return was wholly engrossed with agricultural pursuits and the enjoyment of his Picture Gallery, never took the pains of furnishing his house which had been totally devastated during his absence. The little selection which he carried to America and back again forms still the most interesting part of the furniture, which consisting of articles of little bulk may be divided among your children, M". van Havre and my self, in three lots. The rest of the furniture, plate and jewels may be disposed of to the best advantage immediately after the sale of the pictures in the beginning of August, the sale of the pictures being fixed on the 29"'. of July next. I now take leave from you dear Calvert Y'. affect. C. J. Stier Antwerp, .August 9, 1822. G. Calvert, Esq''. Dear Brother, Our late father's collection of pictures was sold on the 29 of July as you will see by tlie statement enclosed. I purchased for you the " piece " representing Romulus and Remus, for 57,80 florins or $22.88. The Boar Hunt bought by an English gentleman, flor. 167,20 or $66.88, exceeded your orders. The King of the Netherlands acquired the Roman Daughter N°. 2 and also N°'. 5 and 6 of the catalogue, he contended almost to the last for the " Chapeau de Faille ", adjudicated to M""" van Nieuwenhuysen of Brussels and Smith of London, dealers in Pictures, who will gain considerably by publishing engravings show- ing the original and disposing of it afterwards. I bought for myself the two fine Portraits by Van Dyck, N"'. 3, 4, besides N°'. 7, 8, 26, 30, 31, 36, 40, 42, 46, 49, 80, 81 and 83. M'. van Havre bought N°. 32 and M'. della Faille N°. 71. ROSALIE MORRIS JOHNSON 51 The whole of the collectinn sold for about f. 12.000 more than the original price, we need not wonder if the Roman Daughter and several other of the most valuable pictures sold lower, since in purchasing them our Father had to contend with wealthy families who were reluctant to part with them. I had expected a higher price for the celebrated '" Chapeau de Faille," persuaded that a number of English nol)lemen and above them all George IV would want it at any price, I cannot conceive how they left it to a merchant, but so it is.

The following descriptions of eight of tlie above mentioned paintings, have been taken from A Catalogue Raisoitiic, by John Smith. (London, 1830.) I. " The Chapeau De Paillc. A portrait of a young lady (said to be Mademoiselle Limdens,) wearing a black Spanish hat, adorned with black and white feathers, and elegantly attired, according to the costume of the time, in a black velvet bodice and skirt, with scarlet sleeves and white epaulettes, tied with rose-colour ribbons, and a tawny-colour scarf, thrown in a negligent manner over the shoulders ; the hands are passed over each other in front, the left one holding the scarf. Her complexion is most delicately fair, but the hat, inclining forward, throws a shade over the upper part of the face, which, by the reflex from the white bosom, is rendered beautifully transparent. She is represented passing before the exterior of a window on a fine sunny day, the effect of which is strikingly denoted in the brilliancy of the colouring. 2 ft. 7 in. by I ft. 10 in. P. Tradition states that this beautiful picture was so highly prized by the artist, that he never could be induced to part with it. M his death, in 1640, it was inserted in the Catalogue of his Pictures (lot 122) which were sold privately in detail, and, when his widow died, passed into the family of Lundens, with whom it remained as a joint property, until a few years back, when it was purchased by the late proprietor. Baron Stiers d'Aertselaer, of M. Van Haveren, for 50,000 fs., 2000 1. On the decease of the Baron, it was sold for the benefit of his children, in a collection of other valuable pictures at Antwerp, on the 29th of July, 1822, and was purchased by the Writer, in conjunction with another person, for 32,700 fio., which, with the addition of 10 per cent, and other incidental expenses, is about 3000 gs. . . . Shortly after the picture arrived in England, it was sent by His Majesty's express desire to Carlton House, where it remained for a fortnight. ... In the month of March following (1823), it was exhibited at Mr. Stan- ley's Rooms. Old Bond Street, and never did any other picture receive such universal admira- 54 THE ANCESTRY OF tion and applause. . . . The picture was sold by the Writer, the same year, to the Right Honourable Robert Peel, in whose possession it now is. forming the nucleus of his choice collection. Mr. Reynolds has engraved a print of it, in mezzotinto ; and there is also one in line, by Tayler, done from an old black chalk drawing." (Vol. II. Pages 228-230.)

Antwerp, Dear Brother, The sale of the Pictures did not equal my expectations, but have no doubt that more could not have been obtained for them. I regret you did not purchase the Boar Hunt for me, 'tho it did sell for a little more than my limit, I wished to have had for my children one good picture of their Grand Father's collection, which they will frequently hear mentioned. My son George will not be of age for one year, by that time I hope you will see him in Europe, where I will send him to complete his studies, he will graduate the first of Sep- tember next. My dear Caroline has been addressed by several, has given the preference to a M''. Morris of Philadelphia, a man of good connections, a nephew of M''". Powell, he has little property but of respectable standing at the bar, and appears to be of amiable disposition. I shall consent to their union as soon as I can say what she will have to expect. With best wishes for the improvement of your health in which my children all join, I remain affectionately and Sincerely your Brother Geo. C-\lvert Antwerp, April 17'". 1823. M'. Calvert. Dear Brother, The contemplated union of my " Godshild " Caroline with the man of her's as well as of her Father's choice is a matter of great satisfaction to us all, and would have made the same happy impression on the feelings of our late most beloved and respected father, whose wishes to that effect you will find consigned in all his letters. Could not dear Brother this happy event procure us the pleasure of embracing you in Antwerp, your Carolina married, would be in a situation to take care of those of her brothers and sisters whom you should not think proper to bring with you, do think on it Dear Brother, do come next fall with George and Eugenia, to enter together with us on the most agreeable \ ROSALIE MORRIS JOHNSON 55 house in Antwerp which I hought as soon as our hitc father's house had been allotted to van Havre's children. The act of division exhibits exactly the property your Daugliter Carolina will be entitled to for the present for her fifth part of what has come to your children, viz i of fl. 53466 or $21386 say $10693.20 part of tl. 30000 or $12000 6083.70 the sum of fl. 3750 or $1500 Received by the late Rosalie for her children in 1S05 1500.

Calvert-Stier $102,681.55 We have lost, on the 30'". of March last our worthy and beloved uncle, Anthony Stier, who so lately proved once more his kind disposition to his relations by representing your children at the execution of the act of division, aged 73 years, he had been languishing since last summer, no medical assistance could .stop his gradual decline; having raised no children he left his property to the five branches of the family Stier, of which our father was one, his widow, born Lunden, enjoys the revenue during her life time. My absence from home, (on account of our common interests) compels me once more to terminate; thus briefly repeating the expression of the tonderest affection for you, dear Brother, and your children, C, J.

According to the authorities cited, George Calvert is said to have married Anne, daughter of John Mynne. In Chauncy's History of Hertfordshire, Vol. I., p. 537, the name appears as George Mynne, agreeing with the " Calvert Pedigree " in the Maryland Historical Magazine, Vol. II., p. 369. 13.

Guillaume de Cal- vart, Lord of Zeveren, died July 22, 1633 and Jacques de Calvart, also Lord of Zeveren, died November 20, 1633. Their seals are still in the archives of Antwerp, from which it appears that the arms of these two Calvarts were sim- ilar to those granted to Sir George Calvert. 14.

An abstract of the will of David Franks, of Isleworth, County of Middlesex, England, formerly of Philadelphia, appears in The I'en>isyk'ania Magazine, Volume XXIX., page 315. It was dated July 30, 1785 and proved July 22, 1794, and mentions his four children, Abigail Hamilton, Jacob Franks, Moses Franks and Rebecca Johnson. From this it appears that the information gath- ered from the volume quoted on page 69 is erroneous as to the place of David Frank's death, which was evidently in England. 76.
