By FRANCES COWLES. M
So far from being all deseended from
a single first settler of the name the fact
seems to be that the Markhams of
j Colonial families in this country are
| Sprung from no less than seven distinet
{ brogenitors, all of whom apparemtly
| came from (irunH Britain some time be
tween 1807 and 1720,
I There can be no disputing the fact
{ that the first Markham in this country
| was Robert Markham who, in 1607, ex
| plored the James River with Christo
pher Newport, Twenty-eight ears
imwr came Rohert Markham wnfi his
two brothers, John, who settled in Alex
!amlri.q, Vas and Lewis, who made his
home in Westmoreland in the same col
ony
! ‘i‘h'- fcllowing year, in 1826, Thomas
Markham landed and made his home in
Henrico County, Virginia. Frobabiy the
next f the name was William Markham,
who arrived in Pennsylvania in the com
| pany of William \l'c-nn, whose kinsman
|he was. He was“also a member of the
Governor's. Council for Willlam Penn.
| Thg coat of arms here depicted belongs
| to the family descended from this Penn-
Sylvania family. The coat of arms is
described thus: Azure on a chief, or a
| demi lion, rampant, issuant gules. The
| crest is ‘a lion of St. Marks, Bejant,
guardant resting the dexter forepaw on
| a shield flr!'lfl This Pennsylvania
| William Markham Is supposed have
I(‘onev trom Nottingham, England, as did
also Deacon Daniel Markham, who set
tled in (,‘amhrulge, Mass., in 1665.
Deacon Daniel's descendants crossed
the Rockies among the early pioneers
jand one of them was ex-Governor
Markham, of California, They are also
to be found in Georgia and other parts
of the South as we'il as in New Eng
land. 1t would seem that more is known
of the origin of this family than of any
of the others Daniel lgm immigrant
reached this country from England in
1665 He was a freshman in 1674, and
later removed to Middletown. His wife
was FElizabeth Wetmore and their chil
dren were Daniel and Jomes, His sec
lond wife was Patience Harris
Daniel the emigrant was the son of
Daniel of England, whose father was
Sir Robert Markham, of Nottingham
shire, F.nflaml He was a brother of
Matthew Markham, one time Mayor of
Norwich. Sir Robert was seventh in
descent from Sir John Markham, Lord
Chief Justice of Engalnd, who died,
so the records go, in East Markham,
on St. Silvester's day in 1409; and he in
turn was tenth in descent from Claron
| de Markham, the Saxon chief of West
I.\hrkham. the first of his name, who
flourished about 1066, when William,
I the Norman congueror made his memor
able trip from Normandy to England.
| The lnsl of this group of Colonial
Markhams seems to have been John
Markham, who came from England in
1720. He settled first in New York State
where he married Catherine aMtthews,
daughter of the Governor of the colony.
| John eventually left New York and set
llled in Chesterfleld, Virginia, in which
| State he and his descendants have since
then made their home
His rons were Bernard, John, Vincent,
and George, Bernard, the eldest of
these sons, was born In 1737. Little is
known of him except that he was a Rev
’c\'u!immry soldier and that he married
Mary Harris. Strangely enough Dan
el Markham had taken a Patience Har
[ riss as his second wife almost a century
'n-:n'liat Bernard had the following
{ many children: Martha, John, Cather
| ine, Bernard, Mary, Elizabeth, William,
George, Judith and Sarah,
! It seems rather strange that fthis
Markham (:nn‘,\ which was not among
“h«- earltest i® Virginia, and which is
descended from a man who settled first
in New York State, should have proved
to be the one most closely connected
with many of the leading old Southern
families. John Marshall was a descend
ant of 1 daughter of one of these
Markhams. and the Southern Dukes and
'\\'Hhers are closely allied by marriage.

‘ ““All advertising, stripped of the mys
ticism with which we are accustomed to
surround lit, is simply an Invitation to
the public to come to your store and
buy,” sald 8. C. Dobbs, president of the
Chambee of Commerce, in his address
lThurwlny afternoon at the luncheon of
the Advertising Club of Atlanta.
‘ Mr. Dobbs,” for vears directer of ad
vertising of the Coca-Cola Company,
chose for his subject “Good Advertis
ing and Bad,” beginning by delving
back. into the advertising of the sev
enteenth eentury He declared Presi
dent Wilson had gone to Europe to “ad
vertise an fdea;” dwelt upon the fal
lacy that advertising must be exagger
ated or untruthful, and spoke for sim
i plieity and persistency in advertising.
In reference to the national thrift
campaign, Mr. Dobbs declared it was
“a great uplift movement terribly man
handled and abused,” and said the great
mistake had been in failing to make
proper use of advertising, ‘
Mr. Dobbs severely criticized the
“‘demagogic politiclans who are always
pointing out the faults of Atlanta in
stead of pointing out her virtues,” and
paid his respects to the Atlapta news
"[\:uprr‘_i for what he considered their|
y Bensational publication of details uf‘
the Abbott case
{ In reference to his own business, Mr.‘
' Dobbs made the announcement that the
’eal»s of Coca-Cola, largely thrnugh‘
| the result of advertising, had reached
i approximately 150,000,000 glasses a day
in this country.
; President Walter C. Hill invited the
members of the club and their friends
| to attend a lecture to be given next
| Tuesday evening at the Chamber of
Commerce hall by R, H. Kennedy, busi
‘nrw lecturer of the National Cash Reg
ister Company, on *“The Troubles of a
Merchant and How to Stop Them."” Mr,
Kennedy was introduced, and he ex
plained the purposes of the lecture, es
| pecially, inviting the, meschants to bring
| their salespeople The lecture will be
| illustrated by motion pictures.
| " Fred Houser announced that the Ad
!\'r-rtinlng. Club was making plans to
{ entertain at a luncheon some of the
itn»'mgniuhm! visitors to the lL.eague
