5	From Pedigrees of Charlemagne's Descendants: About a year after the young Charles, Carloman was born (773). For some reason that escapes us, his baptism was delayed. But when it was administered eight years later in Rom by the pope, the name Pepin was bestowed on him despite the existence of his hunchback half-brother who already bore that name. On the next day he was crowned king of Italy, where he spent much of his life, governing with the counsel of Abbot Adalard. He did 8 July 810, leaving his son Bernard as his successor and four young daughters whom Charlemagne reared as his own.	Carloman
6	From Pedigree's of Charlemagne's Descendants: Charlemagne was a man of deep familial piety. As indicated by the epitaphs of his sisters Rothaid and Adelaide, he knew his ancestry in the male line back to his great-great-great-grandfather and probably far more extensively than that. Grandson of Charles Martel and firstborn of Pepin and Bertha, he had two brother, Carloman and Pepin, and four sisters, Gisela, Adelaide, Rothaid, and Gertrude. Although there was ill will on the part of Carloman, Charlemagne named one of his sone for him (it was also the name of Charlemagne's uncle). One son, Pepin, was named for Charlgemagne's father and younger brother (the latter of whom died as a child of six); noe, Charles for his grandfather and himself; one, Theodoric, for a cousin. Three of his daughters, Adelaide, Gisela, and Rothaid, bore the names of his sisters; one, Hildegard, of his wife (her mother); one, Bertha, of his beloved mother; one, Theodrada, of a cousin; and one, Hiltrud, of his aunt. Only seven - Louis, Lothair, Hrotrud, Adaltrud, Drogo, Hugo, and Rothild-of the eighteen were not named for members of his immediate family. Initially Charlemagne expected a closely knit family alliance by virtue of his marriage to a Lombard princess, one whose sisters was married to his brother and joint king, Carloman, and another to his cousin, Duke Tassilo of Bavaria. But this plan collarpsed when he divorced her. A young cousin, Adalard, disapproved that action so strongly that he denounced it and abandone court for life as a monk. Later, however, the rift was healed and he became an influential adviser to the palace, as indeed so did his half-brothers and sisters, Wala, Bernarius, Gundrada, and Theodrada. Charlemagne had ten spouses: at least four, more likely five, lawful wives; at least five, possibly six, mistresses; and he had children by all but two of them. There were ultimately eight boys and ten girls. Ten or eleven died before their father. So far as we know, only two of his children had descendant beyond the second or third generation. About 768, at the age of twenty-six, Charlemagne took as his first spouse a high-born lady named Himiltrud. Einhard says that she was a concubine, but other evidence just as strong, if not stronger, indicates that she was a lawful wife. Certainly the pope considered her such. The child of this union, born about 769, was Pepin. Although described as of handsome face, he was unhappily deformed, a hunchback. Charlemagne loved the boy nonetheless and kept him in the family circle until 792 when Pepin was about twenty-three, but there were difficulties. Both the Byzantine east and the Teutonic west of that day believed that a serious physical defect was an impediment to possession of royal prerogatives. Whether rightly or wrongly, some of the Franks looked upon the child as illegitimate. And, moreover, the marriage and probably conception had occurred before Charlemagne was a sovereign ruler.	Charlemagne
7	From Pedigrees of Charlemagne's Descendants: Charles, born in 772, was almost immediately recognized as heir apparent to Charlemagne's present and future dominion. He had the indisputable advantage of being born "to the purple," that is after his father became sole and undoubted ruler of the Frankish state. Even so he was not officially crowned until Christmas, 800, in a ceremony overshadowed by his father's reception of the imperial title. Incredible as it seems, it appears that he never married, although he was thirty-nine years old when he died on 4 December 811.	Charles

17	From Pedigrees of Charlemagne's Descendants: Hrotrud as born in 775. More fortunate than her sister, she lived until 6 June 810. When she was only six years old she was betrothed to the Byzantine Emperor Constantine VI, aged eleven, but for some reason the marriage alliance was repudiated by her father in 787. Later she married Count Rorico of Maine and had a child, Louis, who became abbot of the royal monastery of St. Denis.	Hrotrud

21	From Pedigrees of Charlemagne's Descendants: At the same time his brother Carloman (Pepin) was crowned king of Italy, as noted above, Louis was crowned king of Aquitaine, where he spent the first thirty-five years of his life. At Charlemagne's death in 814, he succeeded to the throne. After a troubled reign he died on 20 June 840. Following the birth of an illegitimate daughter (Alpais or Elpheid), he married twice and had four sons and two daughters of those unions.	Louis I, The Pious

38	From New England Families Genealogical and Memorial: Third Series, Volume IV, p. 1853: John Angell, son of Thomas Angell, was born in Providence, Rhode Island, died there July 27, 1720. For a few years he lived on the Daniel Jenckes farm five miles from Providence, towards Lime Rock, on the Lewisquisit road. He removed to Providence and continued farming. He married, in 1669, Ruth Field, daughter of John Field. He was admitted a freeman, October 16, 1670. Children: Thomas, born March 25, 1672; John; Daniel, born May 2, 1680; Hope, mentioned below; James.	John Angell
39	From New England Families Genealogical and Memorial: Third Series, Volume IV, p. 1853: ANGELL The origina of Angell as a surname is uncertain. Some authorities claim that it is derived from Angel, a town in France, and some claim it is from the Greek word meaning "messenger." In very ancient times it was used in connection with the Christian name, as a descriptive term applied to character, and later to show that the family was of extraordinary beauty. In the Byzantine Empire in 1185, Konstantinos Angelos was a young man of noble family who received his name for that reason. Thomas Angell, the immigrant ancestor, was born in England about 1618. There is a tradition that he was the son of Henry Angell, of Liverpool, England, and that at the age of twelve he went to London to seek his fortune. In 1631 he came with Roger Williams, in the ship, "Lion," from London to Boston, and he was then regarded as a servant or apprentice of Williams. He went with Williams to Salem, remaining until 1636. He removed with him to Providence, Rhode Island, and had granted him the lot fronting on North Main street where now the First Baptist Church, the High School house and Angell street are situated. In 1652 and 1653 he was elected a commissioner, and in 1655, constable, which office he held for many years. He was as were all the inhabitants of Providence of that day a farmer. His will was dated May 3, 1685, and proved September 18, 1685. He was about seventy-six years old at the time of his death. He married Alice (???), whose will is dated October 2, 1694, and proved the January following. Children: John, mentioned below; James, married Abigail Dexter; Amphillis, married Edward Smith; Mary, married Richard Arnold; Deborah, married Richard Seabury; Alice, married Eleazer Whipple; Margaret, married Jonathan Whipple. From Thayer and Burton Ancestry, p. 15: THOMAS ANGELL, the early companion of Roger Williams and the first of the family name to settle in Rhode Island, was the son of Henry Angell, of Liverpool, England, and came to this country in the ship "Lyon," from Bristol, arriving at Boston in December, 1630. He first settled at Salem, but in 1636, with four others, came with Roger Williams to Providence, R. I., arriving there earlier than July. The previous winter had been spent at Seekonk. He was then a young lad living in the family of Roger Williams, whose only companion he was in that first memorable trip up the Providence river in a canoe. The next year, although still a minor, he signed the famous civil compact with twelve others. In 1656-7 a Massachusetts officer came to Pawtucket, arrested a man and attempted to return with him to Boston. The Providence authorities, hearing of it, sent Constable Thomas Angell, with others, one of whom was John Sayles, to rescue the prisoner. They found the Massachusetts officer at a house where he was to remain over night. The officer thus relates the occurrence: "About 10 o'clock comes in Thomas Angell, the constable of Providence, and a sergeant with four men more for to apprehend my body and Richard Chasmor, who was then our prisoner." The matter was argued at some length, with the result that the prisoner was finally released. At the close of the King Philip war Thomas Angell was on the committee that recommended the conditions under which the Indian captives were disposed of by the towns. They were required to serve those plucky inhabitants of Providence and Warwick who, upon being invited to seek shelter on the island of Rhode Island, "stayed and went not away." Besides being constable, he served as town clerk, juryman and commissioner. In 1694 he died, first making careful provisions in his will for his widow's welfare. Among other things, he stipulated that his son, James, should give her another cow, and the "keep of same" when the one given her by his son, John, had "become unfit for milk by age."	Thomas Angell
40	John was a member of King's Council in 1688.	Col. John Armistead
41	Services will be at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday at Penwill- Gabel Funeral Home for John W. Armstrong, 59, who was dead on arrival at a Topeka hospital Saturday after he was stricken at his home, 1513 W. 29th Terrace. He had an apparent heart attack. He was born Feb. 3, 1913, at Centralia, and lived at Havensville before he moved to Topeka 16 years ago. He was an Army veteran of World War II. He was a retail grocer and operated Bill's Market at 2508 W. 15th 16 years. He was a member of Lowman United Methodist Church, Orient Lodge No. 51, AF&AM, Scottish Rite bodies and Arab Shrine. He also was a member of Topeka Chapter No. 462, Order of Eastern Star, and Post no. 33 of the American Legion at Havensville. He was married to Sophia Bonjour April 12, 1934. She survives. Other survivors include a daughter, Mrs. Diana Cole, 1507 W. 29th Terrace; a brother, Harold Armstrong, Houston, Tex.; and a granddaughter. Entombment will be in Mount Hope Abbey.	John William Armstrong
42	The family lived in Havensville before moving to Topeka in 1956. John William and his wife owned and operated grocery stores in Circleville, Havensville and Bill's Market at 2508 SW 15th St, in Topeka, since 1980.	John William Armstrong
43	From Thayer and Burton Ancestry, p. 16: ALICE ((???)), his wife, was probably born in England and came to this country early in its settlement. They were married at Providence about 1645. Her economy appears from the fact that when her husband died there were found "1,000 pins" among the household goods, and, at her death, a year later, the same 1,000 pins were a part of the inventory of her estate. Apparently not one had been lost. She died at Providence in 1695.	Alice Ashton
