welcome to my CHANEY LINEAGE

This chaney line is still being
researched, the information below is what I have gathered together
as accurately as possible. errors may occur so when reading
this remember to do your own research. if you have information to
the contrary and valid documented proof, let me know.
go to 1st page index

The coat of arms shown on the families are the generally
accepted versions. there are several variations of these
to accept and use a version of your families coat of arms without
official documentation and proof is at your own preference.
as this is mine. some surnames have no coat of arms associated
with them at all,and the chances of being related fo someone who
did are slim. the chaney family however, has several knights and
sirs and barons in the history, so there is a good possibility
for a direct link.(none documented yet as i can find).


 (CHANEY,CHEYNE,CHENEY,CHINIA,CHENERY,CHEYNEY,AND CHINE,)
all spellings of the original name.
different generations adopted different spellings of the name

some Cheneys,cheyne's, Chaneys, listed in England::::
The brass plate photo on left is of Margaret Cheyne,d:1419
Hever,Kent:

In 1368 Thomas Cheyne died, he has a brass plate depicting his photo at Drayton Beauchanp Buckinghamshire along with his brother William (died) 1375. Thomas Cheyne was a shield bearer for Edward the III... Sir John Cheyney, Kent, whose ancestors held feudal rights on the Isle of Sheppy was made knight bannaret and knight of the garter by henryvii for gallantry at bosworth field, a battle during the war of the roses in which richard iii was killed. the battle took place in 1485. he became the speaker of the house of commons and was elevated to the peerage as baron cheyney of shurland. his father john cheney has a plate brass, at hanbury staffordshire. brass plates were often set in church floors of prominent members of the church or county. a popular hobby today is using a special wax crayon and rubbing the picture off and framing it. there are several around england of the Cheyne,s, Cheney,s,and Chanu.




There were lesser amorial branches of the Cheney family in County Kent, but all shared common descendants. Throughout these branches the name of richard was common.
In those days the first born was named after the father, the second the grandfather, etc. the first born daughter was named after the mother and so on. the practice produced many with the same names. there are 23 richards in this line. on february 28,1643 24 subjects of the crown in the parish of ripple, signed a proclamation upholding loyalty to the king and in defense of religion. One of the signers was Richard Cheney, who is the Richard Cheney of Cheney's Resolution, Maryland. there is strong evidence that they are one and the same.


This earliest record is of Richard, born 1565 in Middlesex, London, England. he married Elizabeth Offley at St. Marys Church, Woolwich, London. As was the custom, his first born son was named Richard. Richard was born 1-25-1595 in London and at St. Marys', he married Anne Ellinoir, date unknown.
Their Richard was born in 1625 in London and migrated to America in 1649.

Anne Arundel gentry, volume I, 2nd edition states: "The Cheney (Cheyney)family of ancient antiquity was ennobled in england, but through extravagance and being royalists during the civil wars lost most of their property. There is every reason to believe that the Maryland emigrant was a scion of the ennobled family. He was lettered(could read) and the fact that he financed his own passage and that of his wife is further indication of his social level.
The earliest entries in the All Hallows Parish, Anna Arundel County, Maryland are those of the Cheyney (Cheney)family. The date of the entry precedes the date of the establishment of the parish. It is evident that the family kept their own records.
He probably landed in Virginia and moved to Anne Arundel County, Maryland with his wife Charity. He is mentioned as a signer of a Proclamation of Loyalty to the king. Richard and his wife, Charity, migrated to Maryland and settled in the South River Hundred of Anne Arundel County. Sharon Doliante in her book "Maryland and Virginia Colonials" states: Richard Cheyney, sr, born: (ca) 1630, died after 3-6-1685 (date of his will) and before 8-16-1688(date his estate was appraised) married Charity, who died in the mid to late 1600's: he then married Elinor(eleanor) who survived him.
on 7-23-1658 Richard Cheyney entered his claim for the land he and his wife
were entitled to for the entry into maryland."MSA

Richard Cheyney began to purchase land soon after his arrival in Anne Arundel County. He resided on the "South River Hundred" and soon became one of the largest land owners in Maryland. Maryland rent rolls in 1707 indicate the ownership of 2820 acres by the Cheyney family. Cheney hill-1659- Cheneys rest-1663 Cheneys resolution-1663- Cheneys purchase-1661- Cheneys hazard-1616- Cheneys neck-1663 all became part of his ownership.
