      HOWLAND, a numerous name in the United States, is of English origin. It is traced through ancient records, to "John Howland, of London, gentleman, citizen and salter," born (probably) between 1515 and 1518, early in the reign of Henry VIII. He married Anne, daughter of __ Grenway, of Clay, county of Norfolk. She died in 1588. The issue of this marriage was eleven sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Richard, born 1540, was made Bishop of Peterboro'. To him, by patent, dated June 10, 1584, family arms were confirmed, and allowed to all the posterity of his father. Sir Giles Howland, seventh son of John, married first, Anne, daughter of Sir John Hart, and second, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir John Rivers, both wives being of London. The fruits of these unions were three sons and four daughters. His eldest son, Sir John Howland, of Streatham, Co. Surrey, Knt., died 1621, and was succeeded by his brother Geoffrey, as Lord of the Manor of Tooting Bec. Elizabeth Howland, grand daughter of Geoffrey, married Wrotherby Russell, Marquis of Tavistock, afterwards Duke of Bedford. He died 1711 ; she 1724; from whom the present Duke of Bedford and Baron Howland.
      John Howland, brother of the Bishop, and second son of John of London, was born 1541. He married Emma, daughtcr and heiress of Nicholas Revell, citizen of London. In this line descended John Howland, born 1592, and one of the founders of the mouth Colony. p.5-6.
