      Here they are all mentioned together:
      25 June 1670 came Thomas HAGAN & George KEETH of the County of St. Maries and proved Rights unto one hundred acres of land it being due to them for their several times of service performed in this Province to Capt.

      Mar. 17, 1698/9 - An undated letter from Richard Boughton to the Prerogative Court concerning the estate of the late Philip Allen, deceased. The letter appears to be Boughton's response to the complaint of "Murphey Ward the grandfather" "touching my [Boughton's] giving Letters Testamentary to one James Hagan and Joseph Ward on ye estate of Philip Allen without due proof of ye will by ye oaths of ye witnesses or taking reasonable security."
      Source: Maryland Prerogative Court, Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 17, p. 271.
      Comment: Murphey Ward was the father-in-law of Philip Allen and the grandfather of Allen's children. In an Aug. 1698 proceeding in this matter (Liber 17, p. 187), the name shown as James "Waggon" or perhaps "Waggen" is probably the name shown here, presumably correctly, as James "Hagan."

      The deposition of Thomas Hagan, age about 53 years, who declares that 20 odd years ago, he was present with his father, Thomas Hagan, Joseph Gardner, and Abraham Lemaster, who, he believes, were summoned to prove the bounds of a tract of land called Wardle, and a Spanish oak by which this deponent now stands, he understood they proved to be the 1st bounded tree of the afd land.

      The deposition of Thomas Hagan, aged as afd, who declares that he was present with his father, Thomas Hagan, Joseph Gardiner, and Abraham Lemaster when they were summoned to prove a chestnut tree, by which this deponent now stands (and down) which he understood by them to be the 2nd bounded tree of a tract of land called Wardle.
