Birth Notes: Husband - Col. Thomas MacKay Sprigg Prather
The part of Prince Georges County in which he was born became Frederick County in 1749 and is now Montgomery County, Maryland. (See sources http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=fhc3337847&id=I2577 and http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=takeapart&id=I18328.)
An equal number of sources say Prince Georges County.
Another says born in Conococheague Manor, Washington Co., Maryland, but that may not be so (http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:1817077&id=I736).

In the Revolutionary War he was commander of the forces in that county. He lived at Conegochaegue Manor Plantation. His first wife was from the Weston Manor Plantation where the Clagett's lived for generations and still live today. He was also an Episcopal clergyman in Williamsport, Maryland." 24

From http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:3143362&id=I631846417 :
Thomas received from his parents in 1702, "Weston", near Upper Marlborough, which was entailed upon him and his heirs "forever." He lived at Weston where he is said to have built a handsome home, surrounding it with a park in the English style. This house was destroyed by fire after the Revolution.
Thomas owned "Huntington" at Rock Creek; "Clagett's Purchase" (750 acres) in Montgomery Co., near what is now Bethesda; 300 acres near Beaver Dam, Prince George's Co.; and "Strife."
Thomas Clagett is mentioned as a justice of the peace for Prince George's County in 1712 and a Commissioner in 1707; a member of the House of Burgesses; and in 1703 Justice of Orphans Court."
"Across the Years in Prince George's County" pg. 121
There is question as to whether "Weston" was in Prince George's or Calvert County, but county lines changed over the years and where it is now, may not be where it was then.

Thomas Claggett, a captain in the navy of Charles II, inherited landed estates in England but in the fall of 1670 he resigned his commission, left his inheritance and immigrated to American. He arrived early in 1671 and settled on St. Leonard's Creek, near St. Leonard's Town, in Calvert County, MD. After coming to America he changed the spelling of his name to Clagett, and it has been generally so spelled by his descendants ever since, except for those in the line of Bishop Thomas John Claggett, great grandson of Captain Thomas Clagett through his son Richard, and Richard's son, Rev. Samuel Clagett.
He was apparently possessed of considerable means as he at once purchased and received by royal grant a number of large tracts of land...p. 119, Effie Gwynn Bowie, Across the Years in Prince George's Co.
Edward served as Justice of the Peace, Judge of the County Court, and was the first Vestryman of Christ Church Parish. He was Commissioner of Calvert County in 1680; Coroner and Captian of the Calvert County Militia in 1683.

Richard Thomas Clagett in Vol II, No 2, "Bits and Pieces" published by
the Hardin County (KY) Historical Society:
"The name means "Clay-Gate and is derived from a tiny village called Claygate in County Kent, Eng. The first example of its use as a surname is Roger de Glaygate, who lived in Kent in the 1100's. Our family can be traced baack, with full proof, to one Robert Claygate or Clagett, of Malling, Kent who was born about 1490. From thenon the line is definite and certain. It involved descent from such English families as Godden of Laybourne Castle, Colbrand of Sussex, and Adams, baronets, of Shropshire and London. The family is entitled to bear a handsome coat of arms."

From Wikipedia - Aubrey de Vere II
Aubrey de Vere II (c. 1080 -1141 ) was also known as "Alberic[us] de Ver". He was the second of that name in post Norman Conquest England , being the eldest surviving son of Alberic or Aubrey I de Vere who had followed William the Conqueror to England in or after 1066 .
Their lineage is probably Norman , possibly originally from the eponymous town of Ver/Vire in western Normandy , and were [erroneously] said to descend from Charlemagne himself through the Counts of Flanders by late antiquarians. In fact, their connection with Guînes , in Flanders , was temporary; Aubrey de Vere III was briefly married to Beatrice, heiress to that county, about 1137 -1144 or 1146 .
Aubrey II served as Sheriff of many shires and as a Justiciar under kings Henry I and Stephen .[1] King Henry I had declared the estates and office of the first Lord Chamberlain , Robert Malet , to be forfeit, and in 1133 awarded the office of Lord Chamberlain of England to Aubrey.
William of Malmesbury reports that Aubrey represented King Stephen in 1139 , when the king had been summoned to a church council to answer for the seizure of castles held by Roger, Bishop of Salisbury.
His eldest son Aubrey de Vere III , was later created Earl of Oxford , and their descendants were to hold that title and the office that came to be known as the Lord Great Chamberlain until the extinction of the male line in 1703 .[2] He was killed by a London mob in May, 1141 , and buried in the family priory at Colne, Essex .
Aubrey II married Adeliza/Alice, daughter of Gilbert fitz Richard of Clare. Their known children: Aubrey de Vere III , first earl of Oxford; Rohese de Vere, Countess of Essex , Robert; Alice "of Essex;" Geoffrey; Juliana, Countess of Norfolk; William de Vere , Bishop of Hereford; Gilbert, prior of the Knights Hospitaller in England; and an unnamed daughter who married Roger de Ramis.
