DUC ANNE DE MONTMORENCY
(1491-1567)
Enamel p o r t r a i t by Leonard Limosin, Limoges, 1556

Montworency of France - Noland of the United States
Montmorency is the name borne by one of the noblest families of France.
The name has its origin in the site occupied by the premier Baron on the
Isle de France in the tenth century. From that time until well into the
seventeenth century several Montraorencys filled the powerful posts of Constable and Marshal of France. Mathieu, Baron de Montmorency, Constable of
France, died in 1230. Perhaps the outstanding member of the family was
Anne, due de Montmorency (1493-1567). Slightly less so was his grandson,
Henri II, son of Henri I, due de Montmorency.
Anne, due de Montmorency, was the godchild of Queen Anne of Brittany who was
the consort of Charles VIII and Louis XII. The duke was named for the queen.
Anne, the duke, was reared with Francis I, King of France, and in the King's
service became the most powerful figure at the French court. Anne also served
under Henri II and Louis IX, kings of France. He was Constable and Marshal
as was his grandson, Henri II. Anne fought valiantly in the warfare waged
against the Holy Roman emperor, Charles V, King of Spain. Anne was born at
Chantilly, located some twenty-six miles northeast of Paris, the site of a
magnificent chateau mirrored in an artificial lake which surrounds it - now a
museum owned by the Government of France. Associated with the museum is a
world famous racetrack, said to be greatly favored by Queen Elizabeth II of
England.
Henri II (1595-1632), due de Montmorency, grandson of Anne, had a brilliant
military career which was cut short by his execution. His plot to unseat
Cardinal Richelieu had failed.
Shortly before the outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789, Jean Francois
Montmorency, of the great Montmorency family of France, fled to Santo Domingo
in the West Indies, Here he married Honorine Molinery. Three children were
born to the couple: Honore Perigne, Anne Victoire and Emile. Madame de
Montmorency died not long after the birth of the third child. When fourteen
years of age, Anne Victoire was sent to France, never to return, in the company
of Madame de Peltiere. The two brothers barely escaped with their lives when
their father and almost all other white residents met their deaths as a result
of a mulatto uprising. A slave succeeded in concealing the two youths in
a vessel destined for the United States where they arrived safely. Both received excellent educations in Maryland. Honore Perigne, an outstanding
scholar and linguist, was a professor of languages at Natchez, Mississippi.
Emile Montmorency, who was to become a physician and a very rich planter in
Louisiana, was adopted by Mrs. Robert Goodloe Harper, of Maryland. She was
the daughter of Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, one of the richest men in
America and a signer of the Declaration of Independence. The exalted position
196
which Mrs. Harper enjoyed i n American s o c i e t y did not suffer from her adoption
of t h i s youth, a member of one of the most i l l u s t r i o u s families of France. 1
Smile's marriage, celebrated i n Louisiana, to Agnes Kinkead, did not go unnoticed i n ruling c i r c l e s here and abroad. Dr. Emile Morancy and his wife
lived on t h e i r p l a n t a t i o n i n Louisiana. Their daughter, Anne Victoire Morancy,
married Joseph Noland. (Ed. n o t e : Jean Francois Montmorency, f a t h e r of Honore
Perigne, Anne Victoire and Emile, changed the surname t o "Morancy")
The Joseph Nolands had Agnes Noland who married W. H. Harvey; Emile Noland;
Ida Noland; and Thomas Noland. Thomas Noland married Susan Irwin. Anne
Kinkead, s i s t e r of Agnes (Kinkead) Morancy, married James Noland. I t i s not
known whether t h i s couple had children. Doubtless, Joseph and Janes Noland
were c l o s e l y r e l a t e d . They probably belonged to the "Mississippi" branch of
the Loudoun County (Va.) l i n e o r , more accurately s t a t e d , the " P h i l i p " Noland
line.
In 1950 the l a t e Charles Cornelius Lockett v i s i t e d Vicksburg, Mississippi,
where he perused a f i l e on the Nolands. He wrote:
In a c a b i n e t near the Jefferson Davis l e t t e r s , e t c e t e r a ,
I found one cabinet h a l f f i l l e d with an old Vicksburg
family of Judge Pearce Noland, donated by Buddy and Peyton
Noland. The son, Thomas, i s now in college.
In a l l p r o b a b i l i t y the Pearce Nolands c i t e d above, were descended from one
or the other, or b o t h , Peirce Noland (immigrant), and P h i l i p (or P h i l l i p )
Noland (immigrant). According to the b e s t information now a v a i l a b l e the l a t t e r
two were brothers. Ihey both arrived i n Maryland a t approximately the same
time. Both lived i n Charles County, Maryland.
P h i l i p Noland ( P h i l i p 2 ; P h i l i p 1 ) was the builder of the h i s t o r i c Mansion,
Noland House or Noland's Ferry, s i t u a t e d on a prominence some s i x miles d i s t a n t
from Leesburg, V i r g i n i a , in Loudoun County - about 150 yards separating i t
from the Potomac River. Noland, among the e a r l i e s t s e t t l e r s , a r r i v e d before
1724 and established a ferry s e r v i c e connecting Maryland with Virginia and the
Carolinas via the old Carolina Road. Arms were stored in the basement of Noland's
Ferry during the Revolutionary War. Members of an exploration party encamped
on the grounds one night a t Noland's Ferry. During the night, some of the 200
slaves robbed the explorers. When P h i l i p Noland heard about i t , he saw to i t
that the stolen items were returned to the owners.
The granddaughters of Charles Carroll were the Duchess of Leeds t the Marchioness of Wellesley - s i s t e r - i n - l a w of the Duke of Wellington; the wife of
Baron Stafford - she had a a r r i e d , f i r s t l y , Robert Patterson, b r o t h e r of E l i z a beth Patterson, wife of Jerome Bonaparte. Other of C a r r o l l ' s d i r e c t descendants
included Mrs. George Cavendish Taylor; the Countess of Kergorlay, of France;
the-wife of Baron.de la Grange, also of France; and the Countess Heussenstamra,
of A u s t r i a .

Homer T. Love, Jr.
of
San Antonio, Texas
For the past several years, since mid 1977. Mrs. Donald B. Ehrlich, of the
Jackson County Historical Society, Independence, Missouri, has been a prime
source of information on the Nolands of Jackson County. Mrs. Ehrlich's
achievements in historical and genealogical research are outstanding. Her ancestors link up with the Noland clan.
In an effort to broaden the scope of the Noland compilation, Mrs. Ehrlich recruited a Noland aficionado, Mr. Homer T. Love, Jr., of San Antonio, Texas. Mr.
Love is descended from Jesse Noland, younger brother of James, Stephen and
Ledstone. All four brothers were veterans of the Revolutionary War. Mr.
Love's grandmother, Nancy Beth (Noland) Love, was a first cousin of Jesse R.
Noland. The latter also was a cousin of the Jesse Noland who married Nancy Ann
Smallwood, and these two were the ancestors of the Saguache (Colorado) and
Mancos (Colorado) Nolands. Jesse R. Noland was engaged in business with Jesse
Noland in Saguache, Colorado, and lived for some time at the Noland residence
there. He was born at Noland House (the hotel) in Independence, Missouri,
.
which was owned by Mr. Love's great-greatr'grandfather, Smallwood Turner Noland.
Jesse R. Noland was a great favorite of the Saguache, Colorado, relatives.
He served the Confederate cause in the Civil War and was present at the siege
of Vicksburg, Mississippi. A chart depicting Mr. Love's ancestry accompanies
this account. Among the many papers made available by Mr. Love were two which
chronicle the derring-do of Philip Nolan.
The Birds Stayed Home That Day
In glancing backward to the middle of the 17th century, numbers of Nolands of
Ireland are seen departing from their homeland where history had taken an evil
turn. Their descendants are found living today throughout Europe, the United
Ste tee and other areas of the globe. Ronsheim notes the presence in 1941
of one, Albert T. Noland, aged 71 years, who had come to Indiana from Sweden.
The U.S. Census of i860, Jackson County, Missouri, lists Thomas Nolan, 21 years
of age, born in Ireland and living in Kansas City. Francis Nolan, of Westport
(Jackson County, Mo.), 50 years of age, is recorded as having been born in Belgium.
Now making his entrance on the scene is Philip Nolan, born in Belfast, Ireland,
Mr. Love's great grandfather, Jesse Noland, owned the historic Jones Hotel,
Independence, Missouri.
213
in. 1771. Nolan's travels were to take him to Kentucky where he was befriended
by General James Wilkinson.^ Wilkinson gave Nolan lodging and employed hira.
Nolan was shrewd. He was not long in acquiring land in Kentucky in his own
name. Nolan shared many traits with his distant cousins, the Nolands of Maryland, who were restive, vigorous and undeterred by the hazards which beset early
pioneers and settlers.2
Nolan moved on in 1790. From that year until the end of his days - already severely
numbered - he based his operations both at Natchez, Mississippi, and at Nacogdoches, Mexico. Nolan was a big time horsetrader. In Texas which Spain would
not relinquish until 1821, Nolan enjoyed a flourishing business trading with
the Indians whose friendship he was at great pains to cultivate.
Nolan's presence in Mexico was viewed with increasing concern by the Government
of Spain. Passports had been issued to Nolan by Baron de Carondelet, the governor
of Louisiana, in 1794 and 1797, respectively. Nolan had been commissioned to
purchase horses in Mexico for the troops in Louisiana. Others employed Nolan's
talents. Then the news reached the representatives of the Spanish thrones that
Nolan had met with Thomas Jefferson, the vice-president-elect of the United
States. The authorities in Spain and Mexico foresaw an attempt by the United
States to challenge the rule of Spain. The order went out to arrest Nolan.
Nolan, throwing all caution to the winds, had erected a fort in Texas (Mexico),
recruited confederates and prepared for any contingency. The battle was joined
on March 4, 1801. In a matter of hours the superior Mexican forces overpowered
Nolan and his men. Nolan was struck down by a cannonball. His troops surrendered. It was there and then, at a site near the spot where Waco, Texas,
stands today, that it happened. Nolan's ears were severed from his body and
sent off to the governor of Texas. The Nolan Negroes requested, and were given
permission to bury the corpse.
The Gran Senor realized his often expressed wish on that fateful day - "Had I the
power I would prevent birds from flying across the boundary line between Texas
and the United States." The Gran Senor was the Captain General of the
Eastern Internal Province, Don Neraiso Salcede.
It would appear likely that the gr«*at grandmother of Homer T. Love, Jr.,
Esquire, Elizabeth Nutt Townsend (Wilkinson) Noland, and General James Wilkinson shared the same heritage.
In the early 1780s Spain met with, and reached understandings with the Chickasaws which did not favor the settlers on the Cumberland located in that region
which is now Tennessee. Mr. J. G. M. Ramsey, A.M.M.D., in his book, Annals
of Tennessee (originally printed in 1853) reported that "Ireson and Barnett,
on a surveying excursion, were shot down and killed. On Richland Creek,
near what has since been the plantation of Mr. Irwin, William Daniel, Joseph
Dunham, Joshua Norrington and Joel Mills, were all killed; and in a path leading from Dunham's Fort to Armstrong's, at the head of the same creek, Where
Castleman since lived, a soldier was killed as he passed from one fort to
the other, (continued on the following page;
214
"At Armstrong's Fort, as Patsy, the daughter of Mr. Rains, was r i d i n g on
horseback, with a young woman, Betsey Williams, behind her, they were f i r e d
upon by the Indians, and the l a t t e r k i l l e d ; the former escaped. A short
time afterwards, near the same place, Joseph Noland was k i l l e d , and during
the same summer, a son of Thomas Noland; and during the f a l l , the old man,
himself, was a l s o k i l l e d near t h i s same place. About the same time, the
Indians k i l l e d the father of Betsey Williams, above mentioned."

and Jesse Noland left to make his fortune there as a land owner." (Fowler)
"Ledstone (Noland) also made his share in Kentucky, but it was in Jackson
County (Missouri) where he caught up withtiiereal money, even though it was
through his children's efforts, not his. Ledstone, the family background

Noland - Dabney
The Dabney family has been prominent in Virginia since the first Dabneys
arrived in the late seventeenth century. The Dabneys were related to the
Popes and the Washingtons - the family of George Washington. The late lady
Astor was descended from the Dabneys. Early in the eighteenth century
221
George Dabney b u i l t "Seven Springs" a t h i s p l a n t a t i o n s i t u a t e d i n King Willias
County, Virginia. Among the notable guests who were believed to have been
entertained a t "Seven Springs" were George Washington, William Byrd and P a t r i c k
Henry. Although d i s c r e d i t e d i n some q u a r t e r s , there may be some t r u t h to the
oft repeated t a l e t h a t the Dabneys of Virginia were descended from the g r e a t
French Huguenot, Theodore Agrippa d'Aubigne. Credence in the tele i s supported
by the redoubtableHayd«° ' V i r g i n i a Genealogies) who shows the e a r l y Dabney
surname as "D'Aubigne," and not "D'Aubeny," with reference to the genealogy
of Captain Virginius Dabney which i s s e t forth below. Also, long ago, the Reverend Edward Fontaine, who was r e l a t e d to the Dabneys, was quoted as saying, "There
i s hardly an a r i s t o c r a t i c or c a v a l i e r family of the 'Old Dominion' t h a t i s
not thoroughly impregnated with the p r o l i f i c blood of t h a t brave, conscientious
and highly accomplished professor of the P r o t e s t a n t f a i t h , T. Agrippa d'Aubigne."
The t a l e follows:
John and Cornelius Dabney, brothers, generally a r e credited with
founding the Dabney families of Virginia. Huguenots, i t i s widely
believed t h a t the Dabneys were descended from tiie great Huguenot,
"The Confessor," Theodore Agrippa d'Aubigne (1550-1630) and h i s wife,
Susanne de Luzignon L i s e e , daughter of a t i t l e d Frenchman. The
granddaughter of Theodore Agrippa d'Aubigne was Francoise d'Aubigne
(I636-I7I9) who married the famous French w r i t e r , Paul Scarron
(I6IO-I66O). Upon the death of her husband, Mme. Scarron became the
Marquise de Maintenon and, subsequently, in the year 1684, the second
wife of Louis XIV, King of France. Her parents were Constant d'Aubigne.
and h i s wife, Jeanne de Cardillac. Her brother was Charles, Count
d'Aubigne. The Dabneys ("d'Aubigne," a n g l i c i z e d , became "Dabney"), of
Virginia, were descended from Theodore, son of Constant, and nephew
of the Marquise de Maintenon..." (source, The Lockett Family (Virg i n i a ) , compiled by William Twyman Lockett, 1981 - private p r i n t i n g )

"I spoke with a Mrs. Watt. She was a distant cousin, I feel, as she said
'Barnet' was all through her(Noland) branch. Boys were all called 'Barney'
for 'Barnet.*' She told me of a Noland graveyard to the south...Wee then went
to Woodlawn Cemetery and saw Jesse Noland's grave and a Nancy Noland Love's
grave." 1 Source: Mrs. Susan Crutchfield when in Missouri, June, 1980.
When in Independence, Missouri, Mrs. Crutchfield also noted a relationship between the Oscar Lee Nolands and the Joseph Tilford Nolands ("Truman" Nolands),
of Independence, Missouri, It is noted that the Jesse Noland grave, cited
above, was not that of the Jesse Noland who married Nancy Ann Smallwood. The
latter two were buried in the Noland family plot. Hillside Cemetery, Saguache,

distinct, distantly related Noland lines - the "Pierce Noland" line from
Charles County, Maryland, and the "Henry Noland I" line from Kent County, Maryland - were joined when Elizabeth Pitcher, of the "Pierce Noland" line, married
Henry "Trusty" Noland of the "Henrv Noland III" branch. Henry Noland III (died
Madison County, Kentucky, 180?) w a s the grandfather of Henry "Trusty" Noland who
married Elizabeth Pitcher. Ihe wife of Henry Noland III was Nancy White.
Reached by telephone, June 22, 1983, Mr. Harry Noland, of Newport News, Virginia, furnished the following genealogical data about his family:
This Jesse Noland probably was the Jesse Noland who owned the historic Jones
Hotel of Independence, Missouri. Nancy Beth (Noland) Love was his daughter.
She was the grandmother of Homer T. Love, Jr., of San Antonio, Texas, a major
contributor to this Noland family compilation.
The Durango (Colorado) Nolands, as well as the Saguache (Colorado) and Mancos
(Colorado) Nolands, were descended from Henry Noland i n (died I807), of Madison
