History of Dorchester County, Maryland
By Elias Jones

THE ENNALLS FAMILY.
The first Ennalls to arrive in Maryland was Bartholomew, who came from York County, Va., where, about 1660, he married Mrs. Mary Heyward, widow of Francis Heyward, by whom she had two sons, Francis and John Heyward.
In the Land Office Records at Annapolis, Md., date of March 10, 1669, Bartholomew Ennalls, of the County of Dorset, proves the right for transporting the following persons out of Virginia to inhabit in this Province, viz: Himself, Mary (his wife), Thomas Ennalls, Bartholomew Ennalls, Mary Ennalls, Francis Heyward and John Heyward (his children), John Nichols, Wm. Ennalls, Wm. Sudlock and Susan Hyde (his servants).
The first tracts of land laid out for Bartholomew Ennalls and his son Thomas was "Bartholomew's Range," 420 acres, surveyed July 10, 1672, in possession of Thos. Ennalls (see Rent Rolls). Previously he had purchased of John Edmondson 2000 acres of land on the Transquaking River by deed, dated January 18, 1668, for a sloop and 1000 pounds of tobacco.
In reference to the Heywards, there is in court a letter of record from Francis and John Heyward, of October 25, 1680. to Wm. Arnold, authorizing him to give possession of some land in Pocoson, York County, Va., to Francis Heyward's father, Bartholomew Ennalls.
In March, 1688, Bartholomew Ennalls died and mentioned in his will five sons and two daughters, namely: Thomas, William, Joseph, John and Henry, and daughter Elizabeth, who married Major Roger Woolford, and Mary, who married Joseph Foster. His sons Thomas and William died without leaving any descendants. Joseph, John and Henry left many sons and daughters; from them have descended branches of the Goldsboroughs, Hoopers, Bayards, Craigs, Sulivanes, Muses, Waggamans and many other prominent families of the country.
In 1776 Bartholomew Ennalls was appointed Commissioner or County Justice in Dorchester, and was thereafter continually in office, either as Justice or Member of the Assembly, until his death in 1688. The popularity and prominence of the father was inherited by his sons, who became even more influential in county and State affairs. In 1692 his son Thomas was appointed one of the County Justices and reappointed until 1699, when his brother Henry became his associate in the County Court of Justice. They were continued in office until 1706, when three of the brothers, Joseph, Henry and Thomas sat in the same County Court. Very little is known of their private business affairs, but the land records show they were owners of much real estate, and that Thomas Ennalls was a mariner in 1690. While their name is extinct in the county, their blood flows down the Goldsborough line of descent from Robert Goldsborough, barrister, and Elizabeth Goldsborough, the children of Elizabeth (Ennalls) Goldsborough and her husband, Charles Goldsborough, and also through the Hoopers, Muses, Woolfords and other family lines still surviving in the county.
About the year 1760, Thomas Muse, of Westmoreland County, Va., married Anne Ennalls, daughter of Joseph Ennalls, the son of Joseph, the third son of Bartholomew Ennalls. The Maryland Council of Safety commissioned Thomas Muse Major of the 19th Battalion of Militia, October 23, 1776, and sent him fifty pounds to pay the mustering officers at Cambridge, where he was then stationed. He died November 22, 1776, and left two children, Margaret and Joseph Ennalls Muse. Margaret married, in 1790, Dr. Wm. Worthington Davis, a bright Scotchman, who died in 1795, leaving several children. From them have descended family branches of Campbells, Chamberlains, Thomases and Tripps. Joseph Ennalls Muse married Sophia Kerr, daughter of David Kerr and Rachel Leeds (Bozman) Edmondson, widow of James Edmondson, Esq. Sophia (Kerr) Muse was a sister of John Leeds Kerr, who was elected to the U. S. Senate. When he was born, in 1780, a party of gentlemen crossed Chesapeake Bay on the ice in January to Wade's Point Plantation, in Talbot County, to inform the Hon. John Leeds of the birth of his great-grandson and namesake. His great-great-great-grandfather, Col. Nicholas Lowe, owned the first coach in Talbot County, and when they drove out in it to White Marsh Church the folks, white and black, would gather along the road to see them pass. The children of Dr. Joseph Ennalls Muse and his wife, Sophia (Kerr) Muse were Joseph E., Dr. James A., Dr. William H. and one daughter, Mrs. Nicholas B. (Muse) Worthington.
Dr. Joseph E. Muse, the eldest son, became an expert chemist and scientist, took great pleasure in agriculture, and in 1838, the Regents of the University of Maryland conferred upon him the honorary degree of Doctor of Medicine.
Col. Wm. Sulivane Muse, of the U. S. Marine Corps, is the eldest son of Dr. Wm. H. Muse, herein named, and Elizabeth Sulivane Muse, born in Dorchester County, Md., April 8, 1842. He entered the U. S. Navy as a volunteer in 1862, and was commissioned Lieutenant in the U. S. Marine Corps March 18, 1864; served on the U. S. Str. "St. Marys," in the Pacific until 1866; was then assigned to shore duty at Washington and Annapolis for four years; then ordered to the U. S. S. "Brooklyn," in the European Squadron for three years. In 1878 he was ordered to the U. S. Artillery School at Fort Monroe, Va., for instruction, where he graduated in 1880, was that year promoted Captain and joined the U. S. Flagship "Tennessee," in 1881, where he served three years as Fleet Marine Officer of the North Atlantic Squadron; then followed shore duty at Washington, New York and San Francisco. In 1885, was stationed on the Isthmus of Panama, with a marine battalion, during a revolution, to protect property and guard route of transit across the isthmus. In 1886 was ordered to Newport, R. I., to take course at Naval Torpedo School and War College. In 1890 and 1893 served on the U. S. Flagships "Charleston" and "San Francisco" as Fleet Marine Officer of the Pacific Squadron, and commanded the marines of the fleet at the Naval Review in New York in 1893. Was promoted Major, June, 1898; Lieutenant-Colonel, February, 1899, and Colonel, January, 1900. Next ordered to command the Marine Guard at U. S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, Md., while Admiral Cervera and the other Spanish naval officers, captured at Santiago, were held prisoners there. In December, 1898, was ordered to Havana, Cuba, with marines, to occupy Navy Yard upon the evacuation of the Spanish; in 1900 was in command of the Marine Barracks, Brooklyn, N. Y., then transferred to Marine Barracks, Mare Island, California, where he was found physically unfit for active service by a Naval Medical Board, and from there ordered home and retired from service. He has returned to his magnificent home in Cambridge, Md., where every comfort surrounds him that could be reasonably desired.
