VIII.Capt. William Claiborne Born c. 1587 – 1600 in Crayford, Kent England

Claiborne was born in the county of Kent in England c. 1587 to Sarah Smith, the daughter of a London brewer, and Thomas Clayborn, an alderman and lord mayor from King’s Lynn, Norfolk, who made his living as a small-scale businessman involved in a variety of industries, including the salt and fish trades.[4]

Captain William Claiborne, Born c. 1587, Surveyed Jamestown for King James

“…[He] was an American colonial trader and public official.

“Claiborne immigrated to Virginia in 1621 as a surveyor for the colony, and in 1626 he was appointed secretary of state for Virginia and a member of the governor’s royal council. The following year he received a license to trade with the Indians along Chesapeake Bay, and after exploring the region, he established a successful trading post on Kent Island in 1631.

[Claiborne named the Chesapeake Bay region Kent Island after his homeland in Kent, England. William Claiborne was awarded Kent Island, but later, the King gave the same piece of land to Lord Baltimore. He did that to resolve a political conflict in England. The King needed to find a place for the Catholics to settle.]

“Kent Island was included in the proprietorial grant to Lord Baltimore in 1632, despite Claiborne’s opposition in London to the grant. When Claiborne resisted Baltimore’s claim to the island, the proprietor ordered his governor in Maryland to seize the settlement. Claiborne thereupon sailed to England in 1637, attempting to justify his claim, but the commissioner of plantations ruled against him. Claiborne returned to Virginia, and in 1642 he became treasurer of the colony.

“Two years later he and Richard Ingle seized the opportunity to incite a revolt in Maryland that expelled Governor Leonard Calvert, leaving Claiborne in control of the colony until 1646. Five years later he was appointed a member of the commission established by Oliver Cromwell’s Parliament to enforce its rule over both Virginia and Maryland. He served as a member of the commission that governed Maryland from 1652 to 1657. Claiborne vainly persisted in his efforts to regain control over Kent Island despite the reestablishment of the Maryland proprietorship in 1658.” Britannica
