Not knowing much about most of their children, we do know that RICHARD CHENEY moved to Anne Arundel, Maryland, USA. Here are some other notes from ancestry.com about RICHARD and ANN CHENEY's son, Richard: The article below appeared in the Baltimore Sun on September 1 4, 1999 research: Homebuilding site develops into an archaeological find. Cheney homestead from 1650s offers remnants, mystery By Andrea F. Siegel Sun Staff It doesn't look like much -- angular depressions knifed a foot deep into the hard clay in woods about 5 miles from Annapolis. But archaeologists believe the location marks an important site -- the home of a well-known Anne Arundel and southern Maryland family, dating to about 1658. An excavation begun last year has revealed the first known Chaney -- or Cheney, as the spelling varies -- homestead, called Cheney Hill. The site, believed to have once held two wood-post buildings, each with a fireplace and chimney, was discovered during an archaeological check of acreage for a proposed residential development. Working through 350 years of land records revealed that Richard and Charity Cheney bought 100 acres that included that site in 1658, and Cheney rapidly extended his holdings to 1,200 acres. Through generations, the family settled largely in the Bristol-Lothian area of Southern Anne Arundel County, but also moved into Calvert County. Chaneys, under various spellings, account for more than half a page in the Annapolis phone book. What makes the find particularly significant is the information it might hold about life in an early period and the mystery of its location, said Al Luckenbach, Anne Arundel County archaeologist, whose office is supervising the dig. The dig has turned up shards of imported German pottery, beads for Indian trading, pipes, utensils, a finger-length iron key, glass, a brick and other common items. The soil points to frequent repair of rotted or termite-eaten posts sunk 2 1/2 feet in the ground. "We never really knew where they landed, other than it was in Anne Arundel County," said descendant E. Steuart Chaney, whose interest in 19th century history is so intense that he is putting together a small village with buildings from that era at Herrington Harbour. "And now to have the house discovered. It is significant not only to the heritage of our family, but to the heritage of the county." The structures would have been built about 24 years after the founding of Maryland colony, and their abandonment would have been just at the time London Town, to the south, was developing into a population and business center. Fewer than a dozen sites from 1658 to the mid-1680s, when the Cheney building s are believed to have been abandoned, have been found in Anne Arundel County, where Luckenbach is researching "lost towns" of that era. But this site is perched on a steep knoll off Riva Road and the South River. "One of the obvious questions is, Where are you growing your tobacco? He is sitting on top of this hill," Luckenbach said. Tobacco was so lucrative that it inspired a gold rush-like stampede to grow the cash crop. It was similar to the fur-trapping and trading boom that was on its way out by the time Cheney bought the property. ANN CHENEY died in London, England, date unknown at this time.
