Addition, 1783: Part of Howard's Timber Neck", Prints and
Photographs Division, Maryland Historical Society Library. It is
important to note that there were several distinct families of
Howards in the region. While Timber Neck adjoins Lunn's Lott, owned
by the Eager - Howard clan, this John Howard was not directly
related to these Howards. Further connections between Howards may
be found in genealogical records in Newman, Anne Arundel Gentry,
Barnes, Baltimore County Families, or the Bayard Papers (MS #109),
Howard Papers (MS #469), Howard Family Collection (MS #2232), and
Howard - Gilmor Papers (MS #2619) in the Manuscript Division,

Archives]; Giraud's Lessee v. Hughes. 1 G. & J. 249, 255-256 (Md.
1829). It is unclear why the concurrent owners of Lunn's Lott did
not challenge the Gist claim to this valuable waterfront property.
We do know, however, that in 1732 George Eager owned Lunn's Lott;
that in 1738 Cornelius Howard married George's sister, Ruth (who
presumptively inherited Lunn's Lott from George when he disappeared
at sea); and that three of Cornelius' sisters married three of
Richard Gist's sons. See Barnes, Baltimore County Families, pp.
257-258, 342-343.
