Wise, et al., Report and Accompanying Documents of the Virginia Commisioners Appointed to Ascertain the Boundary Line Between Maryland and Virginia (with Appendix, Atlas) (Richmond, Virginia: 1873), Appendix - pp. 78 - 79. Also see Clayton Torrance, Old Somerset on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, p. 486.]

John Nuthall was still in Stafford County, Virginia, in 1640. He was married in Maryland about January 1644 to Elizabeth Bacon, ??daughter of Nathaniel Bacon and granddaughter of Reverend James Bacon and Martha Woodward (not Honywood, as many sources report; her mother was a Honywood). and widow of John Holloway. (I do have some doubts about that early date: note that their first child was not born before 1648.) They were the parents of see below

When John Nuthall married second Jane Johnson. He eventually acquired his own plantation, called Cross Manor, on the eastern shore of Maryland. His name is on the Oath of Loyalty (to the Commonwealth) signed by many Marylanders in 1651; as is Thomas Sprigg's.

 This family originated in Birkenhead, a township in Bidston Parish, Wirral Hundred, Cheshire, directly across the Mersey from Liverpool. At the time of Edward III, John de Birkenhead Bi2?1 b c 1310 held property there, but I can find no pedigree; the Visitation of Cheshire begins about a century later with Henry Birckenhead Bi17 b c 1415, father of another Henry Birckenhead Bi16 b c 1440, father of Adam Birckenhead Bi15 b c 1465 d 1509), who married Alice Huxley b c 1470, daughter and heiress of John Huxley of Huxley, a manor in Cheshire which also much later produced the famous Huxley family (Thomas Henry, Aldous, etc). They were the parents of seven children:
Bi14-1) John Birckenhead, one son, one granddaughter, no further descendants;
Bi14-2) Henry Birckenhead, whose descendants eventually inherited Huxley and the other family properties; many lines in both Cheshire and Ireland;
Bi14-3) Hugh Birckenhead, ancestor of the Birkenheads of Rivington, Lancashire
Bi14-4) Sir Ralph Birkenhead (d 1505), recorder of Chester, had descendants
Bi14-5) Margaret Birckenhead, married Thomas Touchet of Whitley
Bi14-6) Alice Birckenhead, married John Whitmore of Thurstanton; and
Bi14 Elizabeth Birckenhead b c 1498, married Thomas Hurlton Hu14 or Hurleston of Hurleston - their daughter Alice Hurlton Hu13 married Richard Nuthall b c 1516 d 1560).

The modern Earls of Birkenhead are not related.

The arms are described as: Sable, three garbs argent, a bordure engrailed of the second.
