This profile is being updated with research published in 2017.<ref>Daniel G. Armstrong, "Marmaduke Horseman and the Fly-Boat ''Martha''," in ''The American Genealogist,'' 89 (July 2017): 161- </ref>
For years it's been assumed that Marmaduke Horseman's parents were named Marmaduke and Frances. And that the father Marmaduke was he by thes ame name travelling on the ship "Martha." However, two things:
# Yorkshire, England parish records include the following family unit the children of which match later West New Jersey Horseman individuals, known to be children of mother Frances:
: George Horsman and Frances Carlile, m 25 Nov 1662
: Marmaduke the son of George Horsman of Whitwell, bp 27 Nov 1663
: Susannah daughter of GEorge Horseman of Whitwell, bp 14 Dec 1665: Duglessa "filia" [daughter of] George Horseman of Whitwell, bpt 19 Jul 1668<ref>Armstrong, p 164, citing Crambe, Yorkshire North Riding, parish register [images, findmypast.com from Borthwick Institute for Archives, Univ. of York].. The entry for "Duglessa fillia" is abstracted and indexed on findmypast.com as "Douglas," without indication that she was a daughter."</ref># Examination of the other passengers of the fly-boat "Martha" indicate that it's compmletely likely that the Marmaduke on the ship was the son of Frances, not the spouse of Frances.
Therefore the father of Marmaduke and the husband of Frances was George, not an older Marmaduke.
