Biography

Mary was a Friend (Quaker)

Mary Need, daughter of Nathaniel Need, yeoman of Arnold, Nottinghamshire, and Ann ______, was baptized 12 December 1645 at Arnold.[1][2]

On 9 November 1682 Mary and Edmund Cartlidge (his name is spelt like that in the Quaker records) gave notice to Chesterfield Monthly Meeting, Derbyshire, England of their intention to marry.[3] They married on 28 January 1682/3 at Nottingham Quaker Meeting. Edmund is described as of Riddings, Derbyshire in the Quaker marriage record.[4][5] On 8 February 1683 (8 of 12th 1682), Breach Monthly Meeting wrote a transfer certificate for Edmund and wife to the "ffriends in America."[6]

They had two sons and one daughter:

The family immigrated to Pennsylvania, and settled in Darby, Chester County,[1][2] in 1683.[12]

Mary and her children were named in the 1701 will of her father.[1][2]

Edmund Cartlidge left a will dated 21 February 1702/3 and proved in Chester County 12 June 1703.[1][13]

Mary was living in 1709 when her daughter Mary was to marry Jacob Trego.[9] Her date and place of death are unknown.

Research Notes

Douglas Richardson gives Mary's marriage date as 28 November 1682. The Quaker marriage record makes it clear it was 28, Quaker 11th month, 1682 which equates to 28 January 1683 in modern reckoning.

Mary (Need) Cartlidge is listed in Magna Carta Ancestry as a Gateway Ancestor (vol. I, pages xxiii-xxix) in a Richardson-documented trail to Magna Carta Surety Barons Hugh le Bigod and Roger le Bigod (vol. II, pages 221-223 NEED). Mary is also the Gateway in trails identified by the Magna Carta Project to surety barons Saher de Quincy, John de Lacy, Gilbert de Clare, Richard de Clare and John Fitz Robert. These trails were developed as part of the Levis trail by John Sigh, were badged in February 2020 by Michael Cayley, and are set out in the Magna Carta Trails below.
See Base Camp for more information about identified Magna Carta trails and their status. See the project's glossary for project-specific terms, such as a "badged trail".

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Mary by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Mary:

11th month in 1682 would be January, not November. See this page (Sue Roe's "The Problem of Dates") and also this G2G discussion.

Suggested correction. In an image of the original marriage entry, the entry reads "The 28th day of the Eleventh Month 1682." As a result, I suggest the correct month of marriage should be November instead of January. Also, there appears to be at least 3 Need relatives who have signed as witnesses: Hannah Need; Joseph Need; and John Need.
