************
In the early 1680s, London merchant Daniel Axtell began promoting migration
from the British Isles to Carolina and planned on migrating there with his family. He was
most likely the son of an officer in Oliver Cromwell's army who oversaw the trial of
Charles I and was later executed in 1660 after the restoration of the Crown. Axtell and
another Londoner, Joseph Morton, were instrumental in convincing hundreds of colonists
to migrate to Carolina and were each rewarded with the feudal title of Landgrave. Morton
took up lands to the south of Charles Town along the Edisto River and quickly became
the governor of the colony. "Daniell Axtell of London Marcht" received a warrant for
three thousand acres on December 13, 1680. He did not spend much time in Carolina
before his death in 1684. Daniel Axtell's son, Holland, took his father's title of
Landgrave, but his widow, Rebecca Axtell, lived on and oversaw their main plantation,
named Newington. The plantation was located on the upper reaches of the Ashley River,
near the present city of Summerville. Newington was probably the result of Axtell's
original 1680 grant of three thousand acres, and this plantation has the only surviving
account book from the early years of the colony.25

In I 678, another Daniel Axtell, probably a son of Col.
Daniel, left England in company with many others of
Puritanic tende::cies on account of the oppression and
indignities to which they were subjected by the law and
government of the country. August 13, 1678, before
leaving England, he made a will in which he remembers
his children: Sibella, Sibyl, Daniel, Mary, Holland,
Rebecca, Elizabeth and Ann. Of these, only ont: of age, he
made his ,vife, "Rebeckah" "his full and whole executrix,"
Henry Danvers, Esq. and \\Villiam Pennington, his friends,
were to assist his wife "in gathering in the esta:,,~ from
abroad and advising and helping her disposing of it when
at home." (N. E. His. & Gen. Rec. Vol. 44, p58.) A grant
of 3,000 acres in South Carolina was made to him Decem-
-4.f !3
ber 13, 1680. His son started for South Carolina about
that time, but died on the way over and ,vas buried at sea.
The father appears at that date to have been in England,
but later was again in South Carolina in the movement to
establish a colony of which he was one of the leaders.

Notes:

Other: Family: Her brother, Cornelius, was born a servant in a large householdin England and eventualy enlisted in the army ( this came from the Chronicles of Cromwell's Army).He was indeed one of the regicides, who were asked to vote on whether or not King Charles was to be put to death. He appears to be one of the ten who abstained from the vote which carried nevertheless and the King wasput to death.Cornelius was given many lands in Ireland when Cromwell's forces rampaged through the country ( apparently there are records listing a fraction of these lands in the National Archives in Ireland). When Charles' son came to power around 1650, he wanted to avenge his father's death and confiscated theseand his other properties. Cornelius escaped to Lausanne, Switzerland where hespent the rest of his life

Her father (and father-in-law is similar):

Cornelius Holland (1599 ? c. 1671[1])

Born London, England; died possibly at Lausanne, Switzerland about 1671, after he was wanted for his part in the regicide of Charles I of England.[2]

Holland is alleged to have been the chief hand in drawing up the charges against King Charles I, although he was not present when the sentence of death was pronounced, nor does his name appear on the warrant of execution. In February 1649, he was appointed to Council of State[3][4] and was reappointed the next years.[5][6]

Holland lived for a time at Creslow Manor House which he remodelled ca. 1646.[7] This manor house is mentioned in Chambers Book of Days under June 23:[8]

While Creslow pastures continued in possession of the Crown, they were committed to the custody of a keeper. In 1596, James Quarles, Esq. Chief Clerk of the Royal Kitchen, was keeper of Creslow pastures. He was succeeded by Benett Mayne, a relative of the regicide, who was succeeded in 1634 by the regicide Cornelius Holland. This Cornelius Holland, whose father died insolvent in the Fleet, was 'a Poore boy in court waiting on Sir Henry Vane,' by whose interest he was appointed by Charles I keeper of Creslow pastures. He subsequently deserted the cause of his royal patron, and was rewarded by the Parliament with many lucrative posts. He entered the House of Commons in 1642, and after taking a very prominent part against the king, signed his death-warrant. He became so wealthy that, though he had ten children, he gave a daughter on her marriage ?5,000, equal to ten times that sum at the present day. He is traditionally accused of having destroyed or dismantled many of the churches in the neighbourhood of Creslow, [including the churches of Creslow, Granborough and East Claydon[9]]. At the Restoration, being absolutely excepted from the royal amnesty [(the Indemnity and Oblivion Act)], he escaped execution only by fleeing to Lausanne, where, says Noble, 'he ended his days in universal contempt.'
