Mark Anthony

( - Abt 1739)



LDS Catalog description of the book "Anthony Roots & Branches" by Jacob, states that Mark Antony, son of a Genoese merchant, was sent from Holland back to Italy to school. He ran away to sea, was taken prisoner by Algerians, eventually rescued by a British ship, taken to Virginia & sold into service in New Kent Co for 3 years to pay for his passage.

Above story of Mark Anthony is in the book.

Sons probably Joseph and John
Joseph married Elizabeth Clark, b. 1720 dau of Capt Christopher Clark & wife Penelope Massie [p.2]; about 14 children. On p.4 she is listed as Penelope Johnson. So there's a bit of confusion.

There is no proof for Isabella Hart as wife of Mark Anthony.
