Email from Anne Wooster Hague notes Albert's brother Warren
"Lady Susan m., as 2nd wife, John Humphrey, of Chaldon, co. Dorset, who was also active in promoting the settlement of New England, where he arrived with his wife in May 1635. When he returned to England in 1641 he left two daughters of tender age in charge of a farmer near Lynn, who shamefully abused them, for which he was whipped, branded and fined 20 pounds. The story is told fully by Winthrop; but what ultimately became of these two granddaughters of the 2º Earl of Lincoln remain one of the problems of New England genealogy." - taken from www.tudorplace.com

"HE HELPED FIGHT AT GETTYSBURG. Aberdeen Veteran tells about Pickett's charge--helped drive it back.
A. W. Fletcher, a veteran of the civil war, a private in company H. Fourteenth Vermont Infantry, was unusually interested in the account of the battle of Gettysburg, given by James G. McFarland in his Memorial day address last Sunday, because Mr. Fletcher's regiment which helped stand off the celebrated Pickett's charge when the gallant confederate leader, with 17,000 soldiers, attempted to storm the federal postition. Mr. Fletcher has a very vivid memory of that historic occasion. Mr. Fletcher's memory of the affair is enhanced by the fact that he kept a notebook telling of all the hapenings of the war from the time he enlisted for nine months until the cose of the service, but a few days after Gettysburg this notbook was lost during the battle of Gettysburg. A fellow soldier in his regiment also kept a notebook practically similar to the one kep by Mr. Fletcher, which he published, and Mr. Fletcher has a copy in his possession.
Concerning Pickett's charge, Mr. Fletcher and the men of his regiment laid down while the approching rebels were seen rushing toward them and Pickett's men were swept with grape and canister. As they drew nearer, the colonel of the Vermont regiment observed that many of the approaching men were dressed in blue. Thinking he had fired on a detachment of federal soldiers by mistake, the colonel cried to his men to "Cease firing, cease firing!" As the rebels drew nearer, the stars and bars was observed, and the colonel ordered the men to resume firing. Mr. Fletcher says it was the first time in his soldier experience when the enemy tried to deceive the union soldiers by donning the blue.
After the battle, Mr. Fletcher walked over the battlefield and saw where the confederates had buried thousands of their dead in a huge trench, and in another smaller trench had buried the officers who had been killed in the battle.
Mr. Fletcher is very enthusiastic over his endorsement of Mr. McFarland's description of the battle of Gettysburg, as read by him in the News, and takes great pride in the fact that he was an active figure in the event which will ever live in history. One reminiscence connected with the battle by Mr. Fletcher is that he was then a very religious man, and he has been ever since. A comrade, who was also an enthusiasticChristian, and Mr. Fletcher declared he never attended a better, more enthusiastic or more sincere prayer metting that the one he and his comrade held while Pickett's men were charging up the hill."
