006 Thomas Allen I Biography Thomas Allen of North Carolina Thomas ALLEN notes last updated on 22 Jun 2009 NC State Archives, Land Grant No. 161 To Thomas Allen County: Rockingham Acres: 180 Grant No.: 161 Issued: June 27, 1793 Entry No.: 2418 Entered: 5/22/1785 Book No.: 80 Page No.: 385 Location: On Privetts Fork of Hogans Creek According to family history (gleaned from other branches of the family), Thomas Allen Sr served in the Revolutionary War, along with some of his sons. From Historical Sketch of the Allen Family a copy that has been retyped. It has a number of blanks, and I am unsure of who the author(s) are, although the end states: Grace Allen Baugh, Nettie David Henry, __________ Lee Committee, Written June 1948, Marionville, MO. The name Allen is an ancient and honorable one. As a family name in England it has been traced back to about the dawn of the Christian era. While we have no positive record that we are descendants of the Allens of England, Scotland and Ireland, the fact that the family names of Thomas and William were common names in the recorded history of those countries, leads us to believe that we are. We should be proud to claim that heritage, as history tell us that those men were all in high places, men of honor and distinction. The history of the Allen family in America dates from a time prior to the American Revolution. The name has ever since been conspicuous on the pages of American history. Thomas Allen, Sr., a farmer of Rockingham Co., NC, had the following children: Daniel, Moses, William, Sampson, Bethel, Charity, Nancy and Thomas Jr. Source: Chris Allen, descendant of Richard H. Allen Rockingham County was formed from Guilford County, NC in 1785. Thomas Allen and some of his sons signed the petition requesting the state to split off northern Guilford County to form Rockingham County.

Allen (Chris Allen) Here are details on this branch of the Allen family, from which I descend: Well friends, here is my brick wall. Who is the father of Daniel Allen (born c. 1750-1765, died 1834/5 in Giles County, TN)? His siblings were Moses, William, Sampson, Bethel, Charity, Nancy, and Thomas Allen, Jr. Daniel was born in North Carolina or Virgnia. I do not know where his siblings were born, except for Thomas Allen, Jr., who was born abt 1790 in Reidesville, Rockingham County, NC. Daniel Allen removed to Washington County, TN abt 1786 and married Alathea Hale there about 1788. He owned a plantation along Cedar Creek in Sullivan County, TN. About 1800, he moved west to Smith County, near Liberty, TN (which is present DeKalb County), and about 1808 to Giles County, TN. He was said to have been a member of the Mount Moriah Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Giles County, TN. His younger brothers Bethel and Sampson may have moved with him as far as Smith County, and then migrated to Missouri as that state was settled. His youngest brother, Thomas Allen, Jr. moved to Lawrence County, MO abt 1840 and sired a long line of Allens, many descendents of whom remain in that part of Missouri (a beautiful area indeed.) Descendents of Thomas Allen, Jr. believe the father was Thomas Allen or Rockingham County, and that Daniel Allen was the elder brother. Others think that this Daniel Allen was related to the family of Joseph Allen and Daniel Allen, Sr. of Rockingham County, NC, back to the Allens of Stafford County, VA, and may have been the cousin of a man named Benjamin Allen (born mid-1700s, died TN abt 1830-40) Daniel Allen is said by his wife to have served during the Revolutionary War in the Guilford County, NC militia under an officer named William Bethel. Indeed, the name Bethel appears to this day as a middle or first name among his descendents. In papers filed for a Rev War pension application, his wife states that her husband was the son of a Thomas Allen, a farmer of Rockingham County, NC. But, I can find no indication of this. There are many Allens in Rockingham County, NC but I cannot figure out a connection. Additional amplification here. Daniel Allens eldest son was Richard Hale Allen, born abt 1794 in Tennessee. He was raised in Giles County, TN and lived there until his father died, when he moved a few miles west to Lawrence County, TN. There, he opened and ran a stage coach/tavern called Allens Stand in Ethridge, TN. There is an Allen burial ground there now, adjacent to his old property. Richard Hale Allen did well in life, serving as an official in the local militia and participating in the development of the railroad across TN and down to Corinth, MS. He also owned land in Corinth, MS and operated a large plantation there. He also may have been an official of the Confederate government during the War of Northern aggression.

006 Thomas Allen I Biography Richard Hale Allens eldest son was William Bethel Allen. He died young at the Battle of Monterey (1846) during the Mexican American War. He lead a charge of the Tennessee Volunteers, but was cut down immediately. There is a monument to his troops in the town square in Lawrenceburg, TN. I descend from another son of Richard Hale Allen, Richard Bethel Allen. He was born about 1835 in Lawrence County, TN and died in Van Buren, AR in 1908. He was married to Adella Elizabeth Rose of Lawrence County, TN. Richard Bethel Allen served as an officer in the Mississippi troops during the Civil War. After the war, he ended up in Van Buren, AR, where he developed real estate and ran a brick yard.

008 Benjamin Maple II Biography Further Information On Benjamin Maple Jr. Benjamin was the constable for New Brunswick, New Jersey in 1728. In 1730, the constable was David Lee, his half brother, the will of Henry Mershon of Maidenhead, Hunterdon Co., New Jersey, Weaver, July 19, 1738 mentions plantation of 111 acres held by several deeds including Benjamin Maple, David Cox, and Susannah Stockton. The will of Derrick Huff, blacksmith, Maidenhead, Hunterdon County, mentions debts due from Benjamin Maple. In the Middlesex County clerks office there are four mortgage deeds executed by Benjamin Maple and wife Isabella. The first, July 10, 1779 refers to plantation where Benjamin Maple lives in south Brunswick Middlesex County containing 100 acres and begins at corner of William Scudder formerly Josiah Davison at a Ford across Millstone River. The second, May 23, 1783, land in Middlesex County where on his father Benjamin Maple lived at the time of his death, who died intestate, where by Benjamin became seized of same as heir at law. the third, march 7, 1785, tract in Mapletown, Middlesex County ... commencing at fording place across . The fourth, December 16, 1785, also commencing at a fording place across millstone river. on February 22, 1772, Benjamin Maple and wife Sarah also deeded to his son Jacob Maple, also of New Windsor Township, 113 and 1/3 acres on upper bear brook. In both of these deeds Benjamin and Sarah signed by mark. Benjamin and Sarah made provision for three of their younger sons by dividing a 340 acre tract between them. No provision for son Benjamin 3rd was necessary as under the English common law still in effect in 1772, he was heir by the rule of primogeniture to all of the real property of his father at the time of the latters death. We do not know what provision was made for the other sons, David and John: probably they were given other tracts owned by Benjamin Jr. But the deeds have not survived

Biographical Sketch Of John Barnett 1780-1853 , Tennessee H. R. Smith With painful feelings we receive the intelligence above. We have been, in common with the whole Church, familiar with the history of this good man, ever since the earliest days of our branch of Christs Church. To record his history, would be to write that of the Church itself. He was brought into the Ministry in the State of Kentucky, together with two other brothers, WILLIAM and JAMES BARNETT,

008 John Barnett Biography at a period, and under circumstances which tried mens souls. From that, to the hour of his departure from earth, he ever adorned the Gospel Ministry and the Christian profession. He was at one time intimately connected with Cumberland College for several years. He has acted a long and conspicuous part in the affairs of the Church; and while he has fallen depressed with age and infirmity of body, he has gone, we doubt not, to reap a rich reward at Gods right hand. May all our young brethren imitate his virtues.--ED. [Source: The Banner of Peace, and Cumberland Presbyterian Advocate, April 29, 1853, page 4] Rev. John Barnett OF the early life of John Barnett, as in the case of his brother, nothing is known to the writer. Even the time and place of his birth are unknown. It was always understood the John Barnett was the older of the two brothers, whilst William was first in the ministry, and, of course, the older preacher. I have therefore placed him first in the order of my arrangement. It has always been understood, too, that John, as well as William, entered the ministry some time after he became the head of a family. His wifes name was Polly McAdow. She was at least a remote relation of Rev. Samuel McAdow. The McAdows were of North Carolina origin, but lived chiefly in Tennessee. John Barnett was received as a candidate for the ministry by the Cumberland Presbytery at the Beech Meeting-house, in Sumner county, Tennessee, April 9, 1813. At this meeting the Presbytery was divided, and he was placed under the care of the Logan Presbytery. By that Presbytery he was licensed August 31, 1813, and ordained August 11, 1815. He is first mentioned as a member of the Cumberland Synod in the records of its sessions in October, 1816. At some time in the early part of his ministry he settled in lower Kentucky, which was considered at that time a frontier of the Church in that direction. His settlement was made in the neighborhood of what is now the Bethlehem Congregation. He originated that congregation, and in early time they built a log meeting-house of very moderate dimensions, in which, as pastor of the congregation, he ministered for near thirty years. Camp-meetings were introduced very early, and kept up forty years. Great numbers have been converted at these meetings. Bethlehem in now a flourishing congregation. They have been worshiping for twenty years in a capacious brick church. A neat brick academy stands hard by the church-a realization of the proper theory of Presbyterianism, the theory of a church and school combined. During all the years of his connection with Bethlehem Mr. Barnett was also the pastor of Piney Fork Congregation. A modest house of worship was built at Piney, and camp-meetings were held annually, and mostly with great success. At Piney these meetings are still continued. Whilst Mr. Barnett was pastor of these congregations, he was at the same time one of the best farmers in his neighborhood. He was a strong man, had fine health, and labored daily with his own hands. He also kept everyone around him busy. It is a matter of tradition that he frequently labored on his farm all day, and in the evening rode four or five miles, and preached in some private house in his congregation, continued his meetings till eleven or twelve oclock at night, returned home, and was ready for another days work in the morning. By labors of this kind Bethlehem and Piney Fork Congregations were gathered and strengthened from year to year. In 1826 Cumberland College commenced its operations. Mr. Barnett had an active agency in its location, and in the organization and direction of its exterior system. I allude to the management of the farm and boarding-house. He moved to the College, and for some two or three years had charge of these. After his connection with them ceased, he moved to Christian county, and lived a few years, near Salubria Spring, in the neighborhood in which his brother William had once lived, and perhaps upon the same farm. After a few years he returned to the neighborhood of his former home near Bethlehem. In 1831 the Trustees of Cumberland College, by the advice of the General Assembly, leased the institution to him and Rev. Aaron Shelby for a term of years. This was an extraordinary measure, but the exigences of the College were considered to require something extraordinary. It was deeply involved in debt, and still was not selfsustaining irrespective of its debts. Of course it was becoming more deeply involved every year. The

008 John Barnett Biography lessees of the institution were to keep up the farm and boarding-house, manage its general finances, keep up its Faculty, and pay its debts. To enable them to do all these things, they were to have the proceeds of the farm and boarding-house, and the customary labor of each student two hours per day. The proceeds of the tuition department were to be set apart of the payment of the instructors. Mr. Shelby continued his connection with the institution two or three years, and sold his interest to Mr. Harvey Young. A new brick building had been put up, a very coarse and inferior one, it is true, but still an improvement upon the previous condition of things. Everything seemed to go forward rather prosperously till the summer of 1834, when the cholera visited the town. It did not reach the College, but it was followed by a most malignant fever, which spread all over the country, including the College community. Mr. Young died; three-fourths of the students were sick. Recitations were discontinued for some time. Myself and wife were both prostrated for several weeks. I was myself evidently near the door of death. It was a terrible infliction upon the College. Mr. Barnett considered it the turning-point in his administration of the financial affairs of the institution. It was a prostration from which he never recovered. After the death of Mr. Young, his interest reverted, of course, to the Trustees, and the partnership henceforward was a partnership of the Trustees and Mr. Barnett. He, however, became practically the administrator of the business. Things worked badly; a great deal of dissatisfaction grew up all over the Church; he was sometimes unhappy in the temper in which he conducted his business; the wisdom of his measures was thought in some cases to be very defective, and a few began to call in question his personal integrity. He and Dr. Cossitt, the President of the College, differed in their views of measures, and, unfortunately, became estranged from each other. I have told this unhappy story elsewhere. They were both good men, earnest in their opinions, and unwavering in their fidelity to the Church; but they did not harmonize; it was a misfortune. With regard to Dr. Cossitt, my esteemed instructor and friend, my testimony is before the world. With regard to Mr. Barnett, and his connection with the College, I have a few things to say, but for the present hold them in reserve. It will be readily perceived that these difficulties must have had a disastrous influence upon the College. At the General Assembly of 1837, a new plan was adopted, with a view to the relief of the institution from its difficulties, which were rather increasing than diminishing. An association was formed under the style and title of The Cumberland College Association, after the manner of a joint-stock company. Mr. Barnett and the Trustees surrendered their interest in the College to the Association. It was to do the same things which Barnett and Shelby were to have done, and after accomplishing them, to have pro rata dividends of the proceeds, should it ever turn out that there were such proceeds to divide. This plan was expected to be a success, whilst the preceding one had proved a disastrous failure. The history is known, and needs not be repeated here. To say everything in the fewest possible words, an experiment of three years proved its utter insufficiency. It, too, was a failure. In 1834, in the midst of the prevailing sickness, Mr. Barnett lost his eldest son, a young man of rather unusual promise. He was one of the early graduates of Cumberland College. Sometime between 1838 and 1843, he lost his wife, and third and fourth sons. From this time he became unsettled for several years. After the lapse of a few years, however, he was married a second time, to an estimable widow lady, of Henderson county, Kentucky. His constitution was very much shattered, and his health soon failed, and in a few years his life of unusual trial came to an end. Of the circumstances of death nothing is known to the writer. The most of his later years had been passed under a cloud. A great many of his expectations had been thwarted. His providential discipline had been severe. When death came, it was doubtless a release. A life very much made up of clouds and storms was, we must confidently believe, exchanged for a companionship of the four and twenty elders, the hundred and forty and four thousand, and the great multitude that no man can number. My first recollection of Mr. Barnett goes back to the fall of 1819. He was attending a camp-meeting at the Big Spring, in Wilson county, Tennessee. His first sermon there was delivered on Saturday evening. It had rained in the forenoon, and meeting was held in the house, and William Bumpass preached. The rain had ceased, however, and we removed to the stand, as it was called; there was no shelter. Mr. Barnett was the preacher. I had never heard or seen him before. His text was the prophets personation of the Saviour

008 John Barnett Biography as a preacher: The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God. The preacher and the text were both new to me. The preacher was certainly in a good spirit. It seemed to me that the fitness between him and the text was perfect. The solemnity, and tenderness, and earnestness of his manner, and the unction which seemed to rest upon him, were altogether unusual. I have seldom, in a long life, been more deeply interested, or more favorably impressed; and I have often called to mind the apparent tenderness and gentleness of that occasion when, in subsequent years, I have witnessed his struggles with the difficulties of the College, and his excusable impatience with the impertinence and impracticability of men with whom he was thrown into contact in his business transactions. The descent appeared to be very great. He felt it to be so himself; yet Providence seemed to him to lead him into that line of duty. On Monday of the same camp-meeting he preached again, from the text in First Corinthians: And ye are not your own, for ye are bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are Gods. The text was familiar, and the sermon was good, but not equal to that of Saturday. In 1824, or 1825, Mr. Barnett and Rev. David Lowry made a visit to Western Tennessee, to assist William Barnett in two or three camp-meetings. They preached with great interest and power, and left a deep impression behind them. In that visit Mr. Barnett was condescending enough to make me a sort of companion in one or two of his excursions outside of his regular movements, in visiting some of his old acquaintances and friends. I say, condescending enough; I really thought it a privilege and an honor to be permitted to attend him. He seemed to me tender, and kind, and even paternal in his manners. I had but little connection with him after these occurrences, until I went to Cumberland College, in 1830. At that time he was living In Christian county. In the spring of the following year, as it has been said, he became connected with the College as one of the lessees. My own connection with the College continued to 1838. From 1831 to 1837, his connection, as general administrator of its business affairs, continued. We were frequently thrown together under circumstances of great trial. A large part of the period was passed under discouragement, darkness, and distress. In these he, of course, shared very largely. He had embarked every thing in the experiment of trying to improve the financial condition of the College. If he failed, poverty was staring him in the face, whilst yet he had a heavy family on his hands. As it has been mentioned, he lost his eldest and most promising son in the midst of those years. He had fondly expected help from that son, and the loss on that account seemed the more severe. The Church complained of his general administration; the students complained of his stringency in providing for the boarding-house; the teachers complained that they did not receive much more than half pay. He was made answerable for a great many evils. The year 1837 came around, and public sentiment seemed to require a change of the outward administration of the affairs of the College. It is fitting that I should say here, in my place, that no man could have labored more earnestly for the accomplishment of the great objects of a mission than Mr. Barnett did, in those years, for the fulfillment of his engagements with the General Assembly. He did not succeed. No man could have succeeded in his circumstances. He had entered upon a Herculean task; he was a strong man, but still only a man. He was no Hercules. He committed errors, without doubt; but they were the errors of a man governed, upon the whole, by good intentions. He meant well. Of this I have no doubt. His personal integrity was sometimes impeached; but the best possible vindication that could have been offered was the fact at last disclosed, that whilst he entered into his connection with the College a prosperous man, and bringing into it a respectable property, he left it with his temporalities in ruins, and from these ruins he never recovered. After the lapse of thirty-six years, I have no patience with charges which affect his personal integrity. I am ashamed of him who reiterates them.

008 John Barnett Biography He thought the Church owed him something in consideration of his losses. He pursued that thought for years, but without success. I do not pretend to decide upon the justice of his claims from this source, but there are a few living who can recollect the persistence of his efforts in prosecuting those claims, which we all thought, whether just or unjust, to be hopeless. No man in the Cumberland Presbyterian Church was ever so generally misunderstood. It rarely happens to a man, in any of the relations of life, to be so generally misunderstood by those who ought to understand him. Public sentiment took a wrong direction. There were, of course, reasons for it, but still the direction was wrong. The Church, instead of quarreling with a man who had taken one of its heaviest burdens upon his shoulders, should have reached out a helping hand, and, if possible, lightened that burden. Such a course, however, was not pursued. He was in the ditch, and was left very much to take care of himself. I make one farther remark in this connection. Other men have quarreled with the Church, and have left it. In one or two cases the quarrel has been very bitter. Mr. Barnett, however, in the midst of all the vituperation and reproach, and, as he thought, ingratitude and unkindness which he endured, never faltered in his fidelity and devotion to the Church of his early choice to his dying day. In illustration of this a fact may be stated, which, of course, is not known generally, but which, for the sake of his memory, should be known. In making a final settlement of his shattered affairs, he set apart a thousand dollars for the use and benefit of Cumberland College, in the service of which he had suffered so much, and of which he had at that time high hopes. This is an argument which any man can appreciate. After Mr. Barnetts second marriage I seldom saw him. His home was remote from mine, and he did not travel much. The infirmities of age were closing in upon him. In a few years he ended his stirring and stormy life. He had left home with the view of traveling some time, in hope of an improvement of his health. In a few days he reached the residence of his son-in-law in Western Tennessee, and stopped to rest. It proved to be his last resting-place. He died there. The case of Mr. Barnett brings up to our minds the darkest chapter in our history as a Church. The history of Cumberland College has never been written. Most likely it will never be written. In twenty years from this time it cannot be truthfully done. The actors in the transactions will all have passed away, and no man can write it who has not, to some extent, been one of those actors. Dr. Cossitt, Mr. Barnett, Judge Morrison, Aaron Shelby, and Harvey Young, have all been removed from among us. A few still remain, but will not remain long. The College has ceased to exist. Many will say that a great deal of labor has been lost, and a great deal of money has been expended in vain. So thought Judas and the other disciples which the anointing oil was poured upon the Masters feet. He gave them to understand, however, that they were mistaken. It was not a waste. Nor has the labor and money expended upon Cumberland College been a waste. It has fulfilled its mission. In many respects it was a noble mission. Some of those connected with it were never appreciated. Even time itself may not fully vindicate them; still, their works follow them. The seed sown there is producing a harvest all over the West. Our pioneers in the work of education have been amongst our benefactors. Their work has been silent, but it has been none the less effective and vital in its influence on that account. It will live forever in its results. William and John Barnett had a younger brother, or, rather, half-brother, Rev. James Young Barnett, who entered the ministry in early life. He was a man of fine ability, and was thought in his early life to be the equal of his older brothers. He never filled so wide a space, however, in public estimation. He married the daughter of Mr. David Usher, of Christian county, Kentucky, and settled in the neighborhood of his father-in-law, where he lived till his death, which occurred some years ago. he was an estimable and useful man. His widow still lives. There was a fourth brother, Robert Barnett, who also entered the ministry, in Western Tennessee, in his early life. He married the daughter of Hon. Adam R.

[Source: Beard, Richard. Brief Biographical Sketches of Some of the Early Ministers of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Second Series. Nashville, Tenn.: Cumberland Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1874, pages 186-197] The BARNETTS were an extraordinary family in their time. John, William, and James Y. Barnett were brothers, and all ministers of the Cumberland Presbyterian church. John Barnett lived and labored in Caldwell county. He had a long, and at one time troublesome connection with the financial department of Cumberland college. William Barnett was one of the most powerful and popular preachers of his time. He lived a number of years in Christian county, then removed to Henderson, and finally to western Tennessee, where he died in 1827. James Y. Barnett lived and labored in Christian county. [Source: Collins History of Kentucky, vol. 1, 1976 reprint, pages 435-436] The Fathers JOHN and WM. BARNETT, were both stout, able-bodied men, and men of good minds, improved about as the others whose opportunities then were not such as are now enjoyed. They were also natives of Tennessee, and of the mountains at that. They were rough-looking men, of florid complexion, and dauntless, yet they were men of clear heads and warm hearts, full of energy that knew no flagging. They were both a few times at the other camp-meetings in this State, but their labors were limited to Mt. Zion, McAlisters and Milbourns. They were usually considered sons of thunder. There was less of thunder in John. He was often more deliberate, but impressive, and they were both more or less eloquent at times. Wm. was regarded as the more successful in the pulpit, yet both were active, energetic and very useful men. My acquaintance was less familiar with John than William.

008 Moses McWhorter Biography Moses McWhorter 1700 To 1756 February 1998 , Geneaology Newsletter Vol 2, Issue 1 Moses McWhorter [db#3677] was born probably in Ireland around 1700. He is said to have obtained a land grant located on Octoraro Creek in Colerain township, Lancaster County, PA between 1750 and 1752. The most well known source of information on this family [see reference #1] states that Moses and his son Henry fought in the French and Indian War which began in 1754. They served in a company of militia formed in Colerain Township. Moses died during the war and may have died as a result of this service. No records of him have been found after 1756. The name of his wife is not known with any certainty, but noted McWhorter researcher, Davis L. McWhorter [db#6234] has suggested that her last name may have been MARLIN. The name appears in the family for several generations and a Margery Marlin of Chester co., PA in her will dated and probated in 1769 left a bequest to Elizabeth Ferrier [db#3779] the wife of William McWhorter [db#3768], son of Moses. Whether or not all of the children presently assigned to Moses are indeed his is still not certain. Although Anna Harman Bowman [see reference #1] concludes they are, Davis L. McWhorter as well as Frances Small and Mary Starnes [see reference #2] are less emphatic. In Davis words He appears to have had these children: Henry, George, William Aaron 1st, Moses 2nd, James and three daughters. It also appears almost certain that there existed a familial relationship between the family of Moses and that of David McWhorter [db#118] who removed first from Lancaster co., PA to Rutherford co., NC and later, after the Revolutionary War, to western South Carolina. [See McWh*rter Genealogy Newsletter, Vol. 1, Issue 3, Summer 1997, p. 5-10] Two of the grandchildren of Henry McWhorter [db#3678], son of Moses, married children of David. If past researchers are correct Moses had at least nine children, six sons and three daughters. These children resulted in at least twenty-four grandchildren, fourteen of them grandsons to carry on the surname. The descendants of Moses comprise the largest family in the McWh*rter Database with over 3000 persons connected therein including some 1885 direct descendants of Moses. The children of Moses were: George [db#787] was born cir 1730 and married Elizabeth Walkup [db#788] Her surname has been spelled many ways including Waughop. George found his way to Mecklenburg co., NC where he appears as a head of family in the 1790 census. He appears on the subscription list for the Waxhaw Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church on 9-Sep-1800. His will written 30-Nov-1805 and proved Jan1806 in Mecklenburg co., NC mentions sons Moses [db#789], George [db#790], James [db#791], John [db#795] and Aaron [db#796; and, daughters Elizabeth [db#792], Rose [db#793] and Agness [db#794]. Another son Samuel [db#797] is said to have died while a prisoner of the British during the Revolutionary War. Henry [db#3678], the son of Moses, is said to have served with him in the Colerain militia during the French and Indian War. He is said to have lived in Lancaster co., PA from about 1750-1770; lived briefly in Chanceford township, York co., PA (1770-71); and then removed to Mecklenburg co., NC and in 1784 to Abbeville co., SC. Records from the bible of his grandson Allen Marlin McWhorter [db#1106] state that he was born in Ireland. William [db#3768], supposedly born in Ireland as early as 1706, was married first in Chester co., PA to Elizabeth Ferrier [db#3779]. It is she who received the bequest from Margery Marlin. According to one source William lived in both PA and Mecklenburg co., NC before removing to TN where he received a land grant of 640 acres on Goose Creek in Sumner co. According to other sources he was born in South Carolina. He was both a farmer and physician and died in 1802 in Davidson co., TN. By that time he appears remarried to a Mary ? [db#3780] whos will in 1817 leaves her estate to a William Dorris.

008 Moses McWhorter Biography Aaron [db#3769] gave his residence as Colerain township, Lancaster co., PA in deeds recorded in Cumberland co., PA in 1767 and 1774. Both a William McWhorter and a Moses McWhorter, a shoemaker of Chanceford township, York co., PA, are also mentioned in these deeds. Aaron is called trader. In his will dated and probated in 1799 in Mecklenburg co., NC he names his wife Fanny ? [db#3778] and children. It is said that the original copy of the will at Raleigh is signed with the o in McWhorter crossed out and i inserted. Moses [db#3770] provides us with many questions. A Moses McWhorter of York co., PA served as a Ordl Sgt in the Revolutionary War. He is also mentioned as shoemaker of Chanceford twp., York co., PA in several deeds. According to one source [see reference #4] Moses had studied law at the University of Glasgow and following the Revolutionary War settled with his wife Jean in Washington co., PA. A Moses is found there as head of family in the 1790 census. Whether this is the son of Moses [db#3677] is quite uncertain although the name Moses is extremely uncommon among McWh*rters and is found almost exclusively among descendants of Moses of Lancaster co., PA. James [db#3771] is a mystery as next to nothing is known of him. There is some speculation that he is the James McWhirter who settled in Washington co., TN and had at least two daughters there. Daughter [db#3772] may have married a William Scott [db#3775]. Daughter [db#3773] may have married a ? Byrd or Boyd [db#3766]. Daughter [db#3774 is said to have married a ? Calhoun [db#3777].

Moses McWhirter From Ireland To America From about 1700 to about 1756 , Ireland Pennsylvania, USA Most sources report Moses McWhirter to have been born in Ireland around 1700. He is first seen in America between 1750 & 1752 when he receives a land grant on Octoraro Creek in Colerain township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Moses and his son fought in the French and Indian War starting in 1754. They served in a company of militia formed in Colerain Township. It is believed that Moses died during this time and that his death may have been a result of his service in this conflict. As far as I have seen this suggestion is supported solely by the absence of any record of his existence after 1756.

Chief Pigeon Of Tellico Moytoy 2 Moytoy II Moytoy Pigeon of Tellico, Principal Chief and Emperor of the Cherokee was the leading Chief of the Cherokee tribe from April 3, 1730 to 1760. He was also created Emperor of the Cherokees by the British envoy Sir Alexander Cumming in 1730, and had previously been Chief of Great Tellico. He is known as Moytoy II, or Moytoy the Younger, as he succeeded his father, Moytoy I, or Amatoya Moytoy of Chota. Moytoy II was originally named Pigeon of Tellico (English translation), and was born around 1687 in that town. His father, Moytoy I, was the town chief of Chota ca. 1700-1730. His mother, Quatsy, was from Tellico, so this was his home (Cherokee society is matrilineal and matrilocal, and inheritance for males is avuncular). Moytoy was crowned with the Crown of Tannassy, as described by Cumming (the name probably has origins with the traditional capital of Tanasi, near Chota). It is said to have been a traditional Cherokee hide cap covered in feathers and several hanging animal tails. Some sources refer to Moytoy IIs wife as a woman named Go-sa-duisga, and title her the Queen of the Cherokee (in fact there are no traditional consort titles, so this was a European distinction). They had many children who went on to become prominent Cherokee leaders, among them Oconostota (Stalking Turkey), who succeeded his cousin Attacullaculla as Principle Chief in 1775 or 1777. Moytoys daughter, Waw-Li, married the Scottish immigrant John Joseph Vann, making the Cherokee town chief, James Vann, Moytoys grandson. Another son, Amo-Scossite, took the title Emperor of the Cherokees after his uncle Old Hops death. However, this European title alone held no authority, and Attacullaculla was the de facto ruler. The imperial title fell out of use after 1761. Preceded by: Moytoy I Leading chief of the Cherokee tribe 17301760 Succeeded by: Attacullaculla

Great Tellico- Chief Pigeon of Tellico Moytoy Great Tellico From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Great Tellico was a Cherokee town at the site of present-day Tellico Plains, Tennessee, where the Tellico River emerges from the Appalachian Mountains. Great Tellico was one of the largest Cherokee towns in the region. Its name in Cherokee is more properly written Talikwa. It is sometimes spelled Telliquo, or, in Oklahama, Tahlequah. There were several Cherokee settlements named Tellico, the largest of which is distinguished from the others by calling it Great. The meaning of the word Talikwa is thought to be lost by the Cherokees. The Warrior Path a branch of the Great Indian Warpath passed through Great Tellico, linking it to Chota in the north and Great Hiwassee in the south, via Conasauga Creek. In addition, the Trading Path (Tellico Road), later called the Unicoi Turnpike Tell, ran from Great Tellico southeast over the Unicoi Range of the Appalachian Mountains, linking the Overhill Cherokee to the Middle and Lower Cherokee towns in North Carolina and South Carolina. The Trading Path became the main route of trade between the British and the Cherokee during the 18th century (Duncan 2003:245). In the early 18th century, Great Tellico was the de facto capital of the Overhill Cherokee. Several prominent Cherokee leaders came from the town, such as Moytoy of Tellico. After his death in 1741, Great Tellico began to fade. By the 1750s, Chota was largely recognized as the principal town of the Overhill Cherokee.

The monument on New Echota Historic Site honored the Cherokees who died on the Trail of Tears.

Benjamin Maple I History Born 1663, Ipswitch, Suffolk, England On May 8, 1684, Benjamin Maple of Ipswich, England, signed with his mark a plantation indenture to John Smith, for 4 years of service. He then was to be transported on the ship Friendship to America. Left England at the age of 21 to go to Barbados to serve as an indentured servant for four years to pay for his travel expences to America. After his term in Barbadoes he entered the Colonies at New Jersey. May have worked to finish paying his passage debt or was trying to make a home to start a family. No Maple from this line ever owned any slaves. This may have been due to the experiences Benjamin had in Barbados.

Maple Family All members of the Maple or Mapel surname with a family tradition of a New Jersey origin appear to be descended from Benjamin and Elizabeth (Lee) Maple whose marriage was recorded at Burlington, NJ June 4, 1695. Benjamin is believed to be the Benjamin Maple of Ipswich, County of Suffolk, England, who at age 21, signed by mark on May 8, 1684, an agreement to be an indentured servant to John Smith, merchant of London, England, for four years as a husbandman in Barbadoes in return for his transportation and keep there. The origin of the surname is not known. The name Maple is found in English parish registries as early as 1531 when the burial of an Edward Maple on June 9, 1531 was recorded in Carberton. Bardsleys Dictionary of English and Welsh Surnames notes a Robert De Mapleton of the County of York in 1273, as well as a William De Maplesden and Stephen De Maplesden in the County of Kent and a Robert De Maplesden and Thomas De Maplesden in the County of Derby in the same year. In 1528-31, there was recorded at Ipswich the will of Johnis Mepall, de Shottley [Calendar of Wills at Ipswich, Book X, 152831, 1 vol.-Folio 61]. The will mentions his wife Johan, and the Mother Church at Norwich. No names of

009 Benjamin Maple I - Biography children.{See also, Suffolk Green Book, No. XVI, p. 74-5]. In 1564-66 is recorded the will of a Johnis Mapled de Metfield [Calendar of Wills at Ipswich, Book XXI, 1564-66, Folio 148]. There is no reason to believe the name is a contraction of Shakemaple, as claimed by Monette. Nor is ther any known connection with the Maples (spelled with an s) of Conneticut. The same is true for the Henry and Jacob Mayle of New York City who were made freemen May 21, 1691. The family is also distinct from the Marple family of NJ, who are found primarily in Gloucester County. There is some reaon to think that the abstractors who prepared the NJ Archives for publication occasionally mistook the handwrittenp of the eighteenth century for rp. Some descendants spell the name as Mapel, others Maple. John Jameson Mapel, convinced that Mapel was the original spelling, often recorded the name as Mapel even though letters show the individual wrote his name as Maple. Early notaries used whatever spelling seemed best to them, sometimes even Maypole or Maipel. The correct spelling today is that which usage has established for each branch of the family. Benjamin Maple, Sr., Progenitor Of The Maple/Mapel Family In America On May 8, 1684, a Benjamin Maple of Ipswich, County of Suffolk, England, aged twenty one, wsgned by mark an indenture to John Smith, merchant of London, for service of four years as a husbandman on arrival in Barbadoes. He was to be transported in the vessel Friendshipp, commanded by Captain William Bodding. The original, known as a Plantation Indenture, is in the keeping of the Greater London Record Office(Middlesex Records), 1 Queen Annes Gate Buildings, Dartmouth Street, London SW1. A letter from Mrs. Krohne to the Archivist of Barbadoes elicited the reply Few records of arrivals and departures of ships have survived for this period/ However as there is no trace of the name MAPLE among the population records for the 17th century, if he did come here it may have been for a very brief period. The Governor of Barbadoes ordered a census taken in 1684 which disclosed a population of 20,000 whites and 16,000 slaves. The Friendshipp likely sailed sometime in May and probably arrived in Barbadoes by Early July 1684, unless bad weather at sea forced a change in port of arrival. The name of the vessel suggests that John Smith may have been a member of the Society of Friends, commonly called Quakers. The first settlement of Quakers in America was in 1677 at Burlington, NJ, founded by 230 Quakers from London and Yorkshire. The oldest house there is the Revell House on E. Pearl St., built in 1685, now in the care of the Burlington Foundation, Inc. The handwritted record book of Thomas Revell, Justice of the Peace, Burlington, NJ contains the following entry, copied by the author from a photostat of the original supplied by the Office of the Secretary of State for NJ: Benjamin Maplin & Elizabeth Lee Solemnized their marriage at the House of Thomas Revell in the & County of Burlington the fourth day of June 1695: before Tho.

009 Benjamin Maple I - Biography The next record we have of Benjamin Maple is a deed of March 18, 1688-9 by Jeremiah Basse and Thomas Revell, as agents of the West Jersey Society, to a group of men, all of Maidenhead, Burlington County, for 100 acres there of the Societys 15,000 acre tract above the falls of Delaware, to be used for a meeting house, burying ground and schoolhouse. Among those listed is Benja. Maple. (NJ Archives, First series, Vol. XXI, Calendar of New Jersey Records, 1664-1703, pp. 17-18). The name of the town of Maidenhead was changed to Lawrenceville in 1816 by act of the NJ Legislature, to honor Capt. James Lawrence, of Burlington, NJ, who in 1813, while commanding the frigate Hornet captured the British ship Peacock, for which action he was promoted to captain and given command of the frigate Chesapeake. He engaged the British ship Shannon off Boston harbor, was defeated and while lying mortally wounded enjoined Dont give up the ship. He died June 5, 1813. The will of Thomas Smith of Maidenhead, Burlington County, was made Oct. 8, 1702. An inventory of the estate dated Nov. 14, 1702 mentions debts due from Benjamin Maple. (NJ Archives, Wills, Vol., I, P. 433) The next notice we have of Benjamin Maple is the records of a town meeting at Maidenhead in 1712 at which he is listed among others as having subscribed to the formation of a new county. Benjamin Maple of New Brunswick, County of Middlesex, Province of New Jersey, weaver, made his will May 13, 1727. The will was proved Sept. 8, 1727. (NJ Archives, Wills, Vol., I). His wife Elizabeth was named executor. Children named were his son Benjamin, eldest daughter Ruth Ashley, and youngest daughter Catherine Mellot (Marlett). He made a bequest to his son-in-law (used at that time in place of the modern stepson) David Lee, who was also named co-executor. Witnesses were David Bayles, Rugne Ronnion (Reune Runyon) and Thos. Broderick. His plantation of 100 acres together with house and barn were left for the use of his widow Elizabeth, and on her demise to go to his son Benjamin. The will was signed by mark, a sort of vertical cross placed next to a dot that was, no doubt, made by the scribe to show him where to place his mark, and is very similar to the mark used to sign the plantation indenture. When a will was filed for probate, it was usual for an inventory of the deceaseds person estate to be ordered taken. However, no inventory is listed in the NJ Archives. That he was a weaver reinforces the belief that he is the Benjamin Maple of the 1684 indenture. Ipswich was an important center for the wool and cloth trade in the 14th and 15th centures. This was later superseded by sailcloth manufacture. Weaving was still a cottage industry until the middle of the 18th century and Benjamin probably learned his craft as a youth. A period of eleven years elapsed between signing the indenture and his marriage. After serving four years of indentured service, seven years remain unaccounted for. These were likely spent accumulating funds for the purchase of land and construction of a home, before he could afford to marry. The reason for the misspelling of his surname in the marriage record is not known. Source: Genealogical History of the Maple/Mapel Family In America, by Telford Grant Maple, Ph.D.

Cookes And Herbert Family History

1600S TO 1700S , COLONIAL NEW JERSEY Herbert Family Of Middletown Township, Monmouth Co, New Jersey Bridget Herbert of Gravesend, Long Island, New Netherlands, the widow of Richard Herbert of Bermuda, appeared in the Town Book of Middletown on 25th of March, 1671 for rental of a house and land of Edward Smiths. She registered Thomas Herbert, her son, for a cattle ear mark.(1) Dr. John E. Stillwell, New Jersey historian, wrote Bridget married (2) William Bowne, son of Gershom Bowne,a but Edith Herbert Mather disputed the second marriage in her Genealogical Notes. Essentially what the Herbert descendants agree on is that (a) the Monmouth Co NJ Herberts were founded by a widow, Bridgett Herbert-Harbert-Harbour of Gravesend, Long Island, New Amsterdam and (b) she was possibly the widow of *Richard Herbert as documented in the Bermuda records outlined in the book Bermuda Settlers of the 17th Century:Genealogical Notes from Bermuda. (1a & Appendix) In the September 28, 1654 will of Anthony Cooke of Bermuda, Anthony appointed as executor his sonin-law, Capt. Richard Harbert, making Bridget Cooke Harbert the widow of Richard Harbert, not Walter Harbert. This new data comes from Brett Burrowes who descends from both Walter Herbert of Shrewsbury and from Bridgets son, Thomas Herbert. Bretts family have lived in Monmouth County, New Jersey from 1667 until his grandfather died in 1977. Documents prove four Herbert males were in Monmouth Co New Jersey in the 1600s: Walter Herbert and Henry Herbert, brothers, of Shrewsbury, Monmouth Co, New Jersey, and Francis Herbert and Thomas Herbert, sons of Bridgett Herbert, widow, of Monmouth Co, New Jersey. Mary Barnes married Walter Herbert on 14 August 1678 at Albany, New York. This marriage, however, was probably between Mary Barnes and Walter Herbert Jr., son of Bridget Herbert. The widow, Bridget Herbert, died 9 March 1681/82/83 in Monmouth Co, NJ. The Herberts were not among the original patentees of Monmouth County, as were the Grovers.

Notes: Birth dates of above children not from a Bible record, but from a Copy Book which belonged to Thomas Harburt, then to his grandson Jonathan Herbert of Middletown. Herbert Family Records was contributed by Frederick D. Herbert to Genealogy of New Jersey Families in NJ Genealogy Magazine. The copy book dates on p. 176: Bridgett harburt deyed on the ninth day of March in the year 1682; the death of Thomas herbert he died 4th day of December in the year 1721; the death of Elizabetbh Davies, she deyed on the fourteenth dah of August in the year 1728; Inside back cover: The death of *Thomas Herbert he deyed on eighteenth Day of August in the year of our Lord 1735 (eldest son) The key to understanding the text is the Children of Thomas Herbert is followed by the list above. (5) Thomas Herbert II was b. 27 Oct 1694, d. 18 Aug 1735 at age 41. (4) He evidently lived in Middletown Township, Monmouth Co, New Jersey, but a baptismal record for his son John Herbert (April 14, 1734) can be found in Christ Church (Episcopal) Parish Records in Shrewsbury. John Herbert must have been the last child of Thomas & Easter Herbert because Thomas died the following year in 1735. Thomas Herbert married Easter-Esther-Hester (Tuer/s). Being a devout Baptist, Thomas Herbert would have had his son John christened at Christ Church Shrewsbury to protect his sons inheritance right. (5) Marriages performed by Anglican rectors were legal, Baptist or Quaker marriages were not. Before the Revolutionary War, the Anglican Church became entwined with all aspects of the civil government including authority over marriage. Children born to Quaker or Baptist parents were not legitimate until christened in the Anglican Church, a way to harass religious non-conformists or dissenters. There was a migration of Baptists to Hopewell and Amwell Townships in Hunterdon County from Monmouth County. A new church was formed in Hopewell Township called the Old School Baptist Church. (photo left) Grounds of the Old School Baptist Church were donated by John Hart, a singer of the Declaration of Independence and an outspoken leader of the American cause during the Revolution. The Kingwood Baptist Church in Hunterdon Co was consequently formed by Hopewells Old School Baptist Church in 1742. Baptists in Hopewell followed others to Hunterdon Countys Kingwood Church. Thomas Herbert III, son of Thomas Herbert II, can be found among Kingwood Baptist church records. Today, only the cemetery of Kingwood church in Baptistown remains with a newer church across the road.

Worth: 446.16.3 Thomas Herbert III married Hannah Winter October 21, 1751, in Monmouth Co, NJ. (6; Appendix) Hannah Winter was the daughter of Andrew Winter, the son of William Winter and Hannah Grover. The Winter and Grover families were pioneers of Monmouth Co, New Jersey. Andrew Winter was born about 1790, and died before April 30, 1760. Andrew Winters daughter, Catherine Winter, married James Bray.(7) Thomas and Hannah Herbert in 1766 in Kingwood Township, Hunterdon Co, NJ, had neighbors Joseph Everits of Kingwood Township, who in a deed dated October 6th, 1766, sold his property (277 acres) to Smith Cornwell of Bucks Co, Pa. The deed described the tract lying along Abraham Grays line near Thomas Herberts plantation and Hezekiah Bonhams & Daniel Everits line. (8) Abraham Gray Sr. died 1782 in Kingwood Twp., Hunterdon Co, NJ. His wife was Ariaantje Aertsen, and his children included Anne Gray, Daniel Gray & Isaac Gray Sr. (8a) Baptist interest at Kingwood Township began in 1722. By 1734, Kingwood Township has eight Baptist families. Mr. Thomas Curtis, a minister and a member of Hopewell Church, supervised construction of a small meeting house. James Bray and his wife, former members of Middletown (Holmdel), a son of John Bray (who built the 3rd house of worship and parsonage at Holmdel in 1705) arrived in Kingwood Township.(9) John Bray of Middletown had acquired 500 acres in the Baptistown area; and in 1737, he bought another 1,000 acres. In 1748, a year after the Kingwood Baptist Church was founded, John and James Bray moved from Middletown to Kingwood. At the formation of the Kingwood Baptist Church in 1742, all member signed a covenant formally and solemnly obligating themselves to live up to its rules and to accept penalties for transgression of those rules. Thomas and his wife Hannah Herbert were members of the Kingwood Baptist Church at Baptistown. (10) Thomas Herbert became Deacon of Kingwood Church on 21st of October 1765. Hannah (Winter) Herbert was baptized (adult baptism) on 21st of June 1766. (11) The Winter, Bray and Herbert family lived in Kingwood Township, Hunterdon Co, in the years before the Revolutionary War. Thomas Herbert was excluded from Kingwood Church 12th of October 1770; Hannah Herbert was dismissed toward the end of October 1776. Dismissal was for the purpose of membership to another church; exclusion was for chastisement. Thomas Herbert sold his plantation Sept. 5, 1770, to Isaac Gray and Hendrick Gulick (12) Thomas Herbert IV and Josiah Herbert, sons of Thomas III, removed to Loudoun Co Va. in 1772. Thomas Herbert remained in Hunterdon Co as shown by final settlement of mortgage debt to James Gray and John Jones in August, 1774. Andrew Bray Esq. settled his debt to Thomas Herbert at the same time.

Walter Herbert as a grandson of Philip Herbert, Earl of Montgomery 1606, who succeeded his brother Philip as 4th Earl of Pembroke in 1630 (Wm. S. Hornor, This Old Monmouth of Ours, p. 215), is a theory tested by Randi Robinson who used Alice McWater acme@ionet.net account that Walter Herbert may have come off the Herbert of St. Julians line begun by Sir Geo. Herbert of St. Julians, son of Sir William Herbert, Earl of Pembroke. His gg-grdson, Edward Herbert of Merthvr Gerin, (will proven 1667) had

009 Elizabeth Harbert Herbert-Davis Biography sons Henry, Wm, Edward, Walter, Isaac, and Abraham Herbert. With the location of the Bermuda records by Brett Burrowes, the marriage doesnt connect to Bridget. Herberts of Undy (fromGenealogies of Glamorganshnire, p. 283) were the most likely ancestors of the New Jersey Herberts based on naming patterns and family lore. Many descendants thought the family descended from the Earl of Pembroke, grandson of Philip, Earl of Pembroke, second creation; but all grandsons have been accounted for. This was an extremely wealthy family, and it just doesnt make sense that any of this line would settle in New Jersey. All of the grandchildren of Philip Herbert married into families of dukes & earls, or died before they could marry. The St. Julian line, however, descends from Wm Herbert (Black Will 1421-1459) Earl of Pembroke of the 1st creation. His eldest son Wm inherited the title, but traded it back to the King in exchange for the Earl of Huntington. His only heir, Elizabeth, married a Somerset who became Dukes of Beaufort and Earls of Worcester. Black Wills grandson, by an illegitimate son, was made Earl of Pembroke of the second creation. Black Wills 3rd son, Sir George of St. Julian b. 1460 was father of Sir Walter Herbert (b. c1490, d. 1550) who had son George Herbert of Newport (b. c1520) who had son Walter Herbert. of Christchurch b. c1550 who was father of Edward Herbert b. c1590 of Merthyr Gerin/Geraint, will dated 27th June 1666, proved 28 Nov 1667. His issue were all born between 1615-1625. It also substantiates the claim of descent from the Earl of Pembroke, although not from Philip of the second creation as alleged by Ellis & Stillwell. Its possible that any money Walter inherited in 1666/67 was used to emigrate to America.

She was also the first woman to found a settlement in the New World. In England, she became a convert of the Anabaptist sect which held that baptism should not be given to infants, but withheld until a child can understand its meaning. She sailed for the New World colony of Massachusetts in 1639, but found the Puritans intolerant of her sect. In 1643, she received an invitation from Willem Kieft, Director-General of New Netherlands, to lead a small colony of followers to New Netherlands with the promise of religious tolerance. She founded an English town, Gravesend, in the midst of five Dutch towns at the west end of Long Island. Original Patentees of Gravesend include familiar New Jersey names: James Grover, Thomas Applegate, Thomas Cornwall, John Tilton, Richard Stout. In 1667, Long Island, New Netherlands became English and was called New Yorke for the Duke of York. Gravesends founding by Lady Deborah Moody of England for Anabaptists can be read on-line at Long Island: Our History.

009 John J. Smithson Biography Story Of John And Elizabeth They agreed to be indentured servants for 4 years for a man named Larkin Chew, who paid their ships passage and agreed to give them each room & board and fifty acres of land after the 4 years at the main run in lowermost falls, just above a little island. On Dec 23, 1714, 27 persons were transported by Larkin Chew to 1330 acres of land. This land later became Hanover Co. VA. The first winter they all lived in tents, but the following spring they built a series of one room log houses and began clearing the 1330 acres for planting. Family legend has it that John & Elizabeth learned to care for horses and cultivate tobacco. They sold their 100 acres in Hanover Co and bought cheaper land in Louisa Co. VA. Thus in thirty six years they went from being servants to owning hundreds of acres of land. In 1757 they moved from Louisa Co. to Lunenburg Co. VA with their son, Frances Marion Smithson and his wife Sarah. They sold app 1800 acres held by the family and bought land in Lunenburg Co. In 1765, Francis had 8 tythes land, 1246 acres. John J. Smithson filed a will to be found in Willbook 1, 1746-1762, page 336 giving his soul to God and to his loving wife all his estate goods and chattels and personal estates whatsoever. Lastly he made his sad wife sole excutix of his last will & testament dated sixth day of April, in the year of our Lord,1760. The will was probated Dec 1, 1761 in Lunenburg Co. Elizabeths death is recorded at St John Parish. Note that John appears to have been betrothed to Elizabeth of Barnard, before she was born and married the same year she was born, 1693. The marriage date shows him at thirteen years of age. 1693. This was a common practice in the sixteen hundreds. The days of arranged marriages were made to tie one family to another strong family either money wise or strength wise. Especially for defense purposes or to give families allies in enemy territory. Boys as small as five years old were sent to foster with other families, they were trained to be Knights and would remain there until they had earned their spurs and were knighted, often times by age sixteen. Betrothed to an Infant daughter or first unborn daughter, was not unusual. The boy would send gifts to the girl until she was around 14 years old. Note: Girls who were over 20 years old they thought was questionable if they might bear children. The ceremony of the betrothal was binding; it was actually the same as a wedding ceremony. The bride and groom sometimes were not even there. The families would send proxy. This is what we think happened to John and Elizabeth of Barnard. Everything we can find suggested this conclusion.

009 John J. Smithson Biography Source: Fournier history of the Smithson family. http://denversuddaths.homestead.com/f iles/Anc2003/2003anc/pafg10.htm The following is a story of John J. Smithson, handed down from generation to generation. This story was forwarded to me by Frank W. Smithson of Nashville, TN. John J. Smithson is thought to have been born in 1684 in St. Pauls parish in Northumberland England. He apparently came to this country in 1714 after being married to Elizabeth. They each agreed to be indentured servants for a period of four years to a man named Larkin Chew, who paid their ships passage and agreed to give them each room and board and fifty acres of land after four years at the main run in lowermost falls, just above a little island. In a book, Cavaliers and Pioneers by Mrs. Nugent, it states, In the forks of the Mattapony, December 23, 1714, twenty-seven persons were transported by Larken Chew to 1,330 acres of land. This land later became Hanover County, Virginia. The first winter the twentyseven lived in tents, but the following spring they built a series of one room log houses and began clearing the 1,330 acres for planting. There is no record of how much corn was grown, how many hogs or what the land produced during the four years for landlord Chew, but family legend has it that John and Elizabeth learned to care for horses and cultivate tobacco. They sold their one hundred acres in Hanover County and bought cheaper land in Louisa County. Thus in thirty-six years, the went from being servants to owning hundreds of acres of land. We have no record of how many children they had, but late in their lives, (1757) they moved from Louisa County to Lunenburg County with their son, Francis Marion Smithson and his wife Sarah. They sold approximately 1,800 acres held by the family and bought land in Lunenburg County. In 1765, Francis had eight tythes land 1,246 acres of land. The father, John J., filed a will to be found in Will Book 1, 1746-1762, page 336, giving his soul to God and to his loving wife all his estate goods and chattels and personal estates whatsoever. Lastly, he made my sad wife sole excutix of this my last Will in Testament, dated this sixth day of April in the year of our Lord, one thousand and seven hundred and sixty. The will was exhibited and probated on the first day of December 1761 in Lunenburg County. There are further records in the Cumberland Diocese record book of the St. John Parish in Lunenburg County, Virginia where Elizabeths death is recorded. Family legend has an earlier John Smithson coming to Jamestown, Virginia with the younger Captain Newport in 1649. It is now thought that this could have been a great uncle of John J., who started another branch of the family. Other Smithsons were early settlers in southern Maryland and later in Pennsylvania.

He was admitted as a Freeman of Yarmouth, England in 1627, having been apprenticed to Richard Elvyn. [Jewson, p.29.] He lived for some time His wife, whose maiden name was Taylor, was born in 1607. Her mother, Elizabeth, inherited considerable property from her second husband John Goodale of Yarmouth, who died in 1625. Abraham Toppan, along with his wife Susannah, two children Peter and Elizabeth and maid Anne Goodin emigrated from Great Yarmouth, England to New England in May, 1637, on the ship Marey Anne. The passenger register reads: "May: the 10th 1637.

At different times the following year, several lots of land were granted to him, on one of which, he erected his home, near where the town's meetinghouse was built in 1646. He served several years as a selectman in Newbury. During his life it is said he made, "sundry voyages to the Barbadoes, of which one or two were profitable." In the county records of Salem, Massachusetts, a "sometime servant to Abraham Toppan" testified that "the produce being brought home in sugar, cotton, wool and molasses, which were then commodities rendering great profit, being at twelve pence for wool, sugar at six or eight pence per pound profit of which he brought great quantities" (Registry of Deeds, Salem.) He made his will on 30 June, 1670. In it, he speaks of "having done for his son Peter beyond what I have done or can do in proportion for ye rest of my children." He died 5 November, 1672, in his 66th year, in his home on "Toppan's Lane." The home was built around 1670 for his son, Jacob. His widow died 20 March, 1689, aged 82 years. Her mother, Mrs. Goodale, died in Newbury 8 April, 1647.

010 Amatoya 'Rainmaker' Moytoy - Biography Notes for A-MA-DO-YA MOYTOY: There has been a lot of confusion about the descendants of Moytoy. I think this is because some people are not aware that there were two Chief Moytoys. The first was Chief Amatoya Moytoy of Chota, b abt 1640, who married Quatsy of Tellico (of the Wolf Clan). The second is Chief Moytoy, aka the Pigeon of Tellico, b abt 1687. The second Moytoy is believed to be either the son or grandson of Amatoya Moytoy. It is believed that Amatoya Moytoy had 3 sons and 8 daughters. These include Chief Kanagatoga Old Hop, Nancy Moytoy, and two daughters with unknown names. Nancy Moytoy is believed to have been the mother of Chief Attakullakulla Little Carpenter, Killaneca the Buck, Betsy and Tame Doe. Tame Doe was the mother of Tsistuna-Gis-Ke (Nancy Ward), and Longfellow of Chistatoa.

The French Descent Indian Amatoya Moytoy of Chota (pronounced mah-tie) was a Cherokee town chief of the early eighteenth century in the area of present-day Tennessee. He held a prominent position among the Cherokee, and held

010 Amatoya 'Rainmaker' Moytoy - Biography the hereditary title Ama Matai (From the French matai and Cherokee ama--water), which meant Water Conjurer. His father was a European, Thomas Pasmere Carpenter, who was descended from the noble AngloNorman family of Vicomte Guillaume de Melun le Carpentier. Thus, Moytoys European lineage can be traced to the Frankish Duke Ansegisel of Metz Meroving, Peppin II, and Charles Martel. This ancestry also makes the Cherokee Moytoys cousins to the Carpenter Earl of Tyrconnell, and thus related to the current British royal family. Twenty year old Thomas Pasmere Carpenter came to Jamestown, Virginia from England in 1627, living in a cave near the Shawnee. Thomas was called Cornplanter by the Shawnee, derived from their sign language that matched as near as possible to the work of a carpenter. He married a Shawnee woman named Pride and bore a son around 1635 named Trader Carpenter. Amatoya was taught by his father to witch for water with a willow stick. He had become so adept at water witching that the Cherokee called him water conjurer or Ama Matai (Ama is Cherokee for water). Ama Matai eventually became pronounced as Amatoya. It was later shortened to Moytoy, so he is known as Moytoy I. He ruled the town of Chota sometime between the beginning of the eighteenth century and 1730. In 1680, Amatoya married Quatsie of Tellico. Many of their descendants went on to become prominent leaders, founding a family that effectively ruled the Cherokee for a century.

010 Hugh March Biography Hugh March It was written that Hugh March was born about 1618 in a playce near unto the Greate Mannour House at The Wallops. We found him listed as being born at Newbury, England. His father seemed to be George March, we do not know the name of his mother. He served his carpenters apprenticeship at that Shoppe at the Great Manour House of Upper Wallop. He was an experienced housewright by 1638. Hugh March came to Newe-England in the summer of 1638 aboard the Good Shippe Confidence of London, ...the good shipp, the Confidence of London, of 200 tonnes, . . . the 11th of Aprill, 1638. The nuber of the passengers afore mentioned, greate & little are 110 soules. S. P. O. Am: & West Indies v. 375) (New England) he was noted upon the manifest as Hugh Marche Servante to Stephen Kent The records of the Kent family say that Stephen Kent had been in old Newbury, Massachusetts, and that he had sized up the situation there, and had returned to England to get married. Both Stephen Kent and his bride spent time at The Wallops before they made their journey to the Port of Southampton. They were authorized toe Sayle uppon that Shippe Confidence and Intending for Newe England there in to inhabitt and Remaine by Port Commissioner on April 11, 1638. One of Stephen Kents plans had been to bring a house carpenter back with him to construct a home for himself at old Newbury. Hugh March was the person he playced under his indenture for that purpose. The Kent home in old Newbury was adjacent to the lot and home of the Knight family. It was at that time that Hugh met Judith Knight. During his indenture which lasted seven years, Hugh March erected the Kent house along with numerous other outbuildings and homes in and around the small Parker River town. Some of the buildings were at Newburys port on the Merrimac, and across the river at Salisbury, and nearby Hampton. When Hugh March came to Essex County, the county was still in its infancy. There were just two towns in the northern portion of the county. The towns were Ipswech on the north back of the Ipswich River, and old Newbury on the north bank of the Parker River. When his indenture was over, Hugh March moved to an area of York County named Kittery-Old Eliot, a providence of Maine. For a year or so, Hugh worked as a lumberman. He was employed at ye felling of timbers and ye cutting of Mastes and sparres for the ship building interests at nearby Portsmouth, then known as Strawberrie Banke. One account relates that he worked for the interests of the Shapleighs and another that he worked for the interests of the Treworthies. Its believed he worked in and around the Sturgeon Creek area of Kittery. Sometime around 1651, Hugh married Judith Knight as his first wife. Judith was either the sister or a daughter of either John or Richard Knight, brothers and tailors from Romsey, Hampshire, England. They had come to New England aboard the ship James in 1635 and settled at old Newbury. Judith was the mother to all five of Hughs children. In December of 1667, a group of Essex County citizens got together and made plans to settle at the new towns of Woodbridge and Pascataway in New Jersey. Among the citizens was Hugh March and his oldest son, George, both noted as of Newbury. Hugh March was held in high esteem by the citizenry and officials of old Newbury and Essex county. He was often called upon by the General Court to act as their checker of Weights and Measures. He served as a Legal Representative (a Lawyer) for the Essex County Quarterly Court, and was to successfully plead the cases of two people he had been appointed to represent. He was the Selectman of old Newbury in 1669. It is quite possible that he served in that same capacity in other years as well.

010 Hugh March Biography Hugh was a member of the militia but, was dismissed from training in 1679 but, was to pay 5/ per year to the Newbury company. Hugh March was also the plaintiff brought before the same court. In 1653 he appeared before the court when his wife Judith was before it for wearing a silken scarf in public. In that case, Hugh displayed evidence that he held Worthe in excess of 200. The case was dismissed. In 1663 he was again called before the court, the time for playing cards with Richard Knight at the Knight home. The person who complained was Bathsheba, the wife of Richard Knight. It was documented that Hugh was in Woodbridge. On February 27, 1668 he owned 320 acres of land. The records of Woodbridge say that George March held title to 90 acres himself. Colonel John March, a younger brother of George, became a land owner at Woodbridge in 1687. In 1669/70 Hugh became the proprietor and keeper of the BLUE ANCHOR TAVERN, a favorite gathering place for the men of the Newburys Port area. Hugh made his home in the quarters above the tavern. Traditional family stories say that the last time all the members of this family were together was at the funeral of their mother, Judith in December of 1675. After that, certain differences arose between Hugh and his son John March. These differences led to harsh words, and, from the time of his marriage in 1676 Hugh was not to have a cordial father-to-son talk with John. Hughs marriage to Dorcas was not a happy one. Her first husband had deserted her, disappeared and was presumed dead. In 1678, two years after their wedding, Hugh, his sons Hugh and John, and his friends Thomas Woodbridge and John Taylor submitted affidavits in an action in the General Court stating that Blackleach was not dead but living in Virginia when Dorcas married Hugh and that she was fully aware of the fact but, concealed it. Dorcas denied the accusation and said that the scandalous report originated from the malice of Hughs children. The court evidently believed her as the decision was made that Hugh should keep her as his wife. Obviously this lead to domestic problems. Hugh had a maid, Elizabeth Jago, who complained that Dorcas had slandered her, but the case was withdrawn when Dorcas confessed that she had wronged the girl. On 15 Aug. 1679 Hugh mortgaged his home to Simon Lynde of Boston for 110 and on 31 Jan. 1679/0 he gave all his property to his son John reserving for himself only the old parlor and the chamber above it. In 1682 John Edwards Sr. of Ipswich said that he had kissed Dorcas in the face of the court and that there was no harm in it. Of all his children, Hugh March was perhaps the closest to his first born, George. When he took over the operations of the Tavern, he gave the old farm and dwelling house to George. In later years, George was to erect a fence around the graves of his parents within the Sawyers Hill Burying Ground. Hugh Jr. March had his house and Lotte and his Blacksmiths Shopp close to the BLUE ANCHOR TAVERN. He was always on friendly terms with his father. Hugh March died in Newbury Massachusetts on December 12th, 1693 http://www.angelfire.com/folk/treewhite/1600/HughMarch.htm

010 Nicolas Davis Biography Nicholas Davis in Hyannis, Mass. 1666 1666 , HYANNIS, MASS. Hyannis, MA History Hyannis is the largest village within the city of Barnstable, which is on Cape Cod. It is often referred to as the Capital of the Cape. It is named for the Indian settlement Sachem Yanno or Yannough. Nicholas Davis was the first settler in 1666. By 1840, more than 200 shipmasters had homes in Hyannis. The first railroad cars reached Hyannis on July 8, 1854. In 1925, Joseph and Rose Kennedy, parents of John F. Kennedy, rented the Malcolm Cottage in Hyannisport and three years later purchased it. In 1956, John F. Kennedy bought an adjacent residence, which later became the summer White House. Nicholas Davis Flees The Puritans To New Jersey. About 1665 , Colonial New Jersey Nicholas was among the first converts from Puritanism to Quakerism in 1658/59; Nicholas and Sarahs home in Barnstable was ransacked by Constables seeking heretical Quaker documents, and Nicholas was banished from Massachusetts because of his Quaker faith, upon pain of death, by Boston (Massachusetts Bay) Court authorities. His close friend, Mary Dyer, was convicted with Nicholas, but, unfortunately she immediately returned to Boston and was hanged there ca. 1660. I believe that Mary was the very first woman martyred on U.S. soil. FROM NEW JERSEY LAND RECORDS: A large portion of the lands in the northern part of the county are held under the Monmouth patent or Nicholls patent. This celebrated writing, granded by Richard Nicholls, Esq., first governor of the province under the Duke of York, on the 8th day of April, in the year 1665, conveyed unto William Goulding, Samuel Spicer, Richard Gibbons, Richard Stout, James Grover, *** John Bowne, John Tilton, Nathaniel Sylvester, WIlliam Reape, *** Walter Clarke, *** NICHOLAS DAVIS, and *** Obadiah Holmes, patentees, and their associates, their heirs, successors and assigns, all the lands from Sandy Hook westward to the mouth of Raritan River, and up the same to a certain point, thence southwestward into the woods twelve miles, thence to turn away southeast by south until it falls into the main ocean. Davis And Holder Quaker History In Mass. 1659 , Massachusetts Bay Colony Christopher Holder From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Christopher Holder (ca. 1631 ?) was an Anglo-American Quaker minister who was persecuted in the Massachusetts Bay Colony for his beliefs. Early life Holder was born in Alverton, Nottinghamshire, England. Not much is known about his childhood. At some point he became a member of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) and began to spread their message.

010 Nicolas Davis Biography First Journey To The American Colonies Holder went to Boston, Massachusetts, aboard the Speedwell, landing on July 27, 1656. He and seven other passengers were listed with a Q (for Quaker) beside their names, because at that time, the Puritans in England and in the English colonies were persecuting Quakers, members of the Religious Society of Friends. The port authorities were alerted to the presence of the Quakers and searched the ship before anyone disembarked. Governor John Endicott ordered that they be brought directly to court. Holder and another member of the group, John Copeland, displayed a thorough knowledge of the Bible and the law as they testified in court. Holder was put in jail to await the next available ship to take them back to England. While they were still in the jail, Mary Dyer and Anne Burden, two other Friends, arrived in another ship and were arrested on the spot. The authorities in the Massachusetts Bay Colony considered the teachings of the Quakers both heretical and blasphemous. They apparently wanted to put Quakers on alert that they were not welcome there. Eventually Holder and the seven who had come with him were deported to England. Second Journey To The American Colonies Holder was determined to return to New England and went to George Fox, one of the leaders of the Friends, for help in securing passage on another ship. Holder and Copeland traveled back to Massachusetts together. This time around, Holder was actually able to preach to people, and many responded favorably. In the town of Sandwich several people became convinced of the truth of the Quaker message and adopted those beliefs and practices themselves. A small band of Friends had already been meeting for a few months when Holder arrived, under the ministry of Nicholas Upsall, a new Friend who was in exile from Boston. Holder and Copeland were jailed for their activities in Sandwich, and the Friends began meeting secretly in a place that was called Christophers Hollow in Holders honor. The hollow is still known by that name. Holder and Copeland made their way throughout several towns in Massachusetts. Wherever they preached, some people were convinced. Holder then made his way to Salem and attended a service at the Salem Congregational Church, the very church where Governor Endicott worshiped. Endicotts men seized Holder and stuffed a glove and a handkerchief down his throat. Another member of the church, Samuel Shattuck, rescued Holder from this treatment. Holder and he were friends from that point on. Holder, Copeland, and Shattuck were put in prison. Shattuck was released on bond. The two visitors were given thirty lashes. After several months in prison, they were released. Holders hosts, Lawrence and Cassandra Burnell Southwick, were put in jail for associating with him. Lawrence was released, because he was a member of the church. Cassandra remained for a few weeks and was then fined for possessing a paper written by the Friends.. On April 16, 1658 Holder and Copeland returned to Sandwich, but were arrested by a delegation sent by Endicott. This time they were given 33 lashes. On June 3, the two Friends went to Boston, where they were immediately arrested. This time, Holders right ear was cut off to punish his heretical preaching. A woman named Katherine Scott, the sister of Anne Hutchinson and future mother-in-law of Holder, protested. Because she stood up for Holder and his companion, she was put in prison for two months and given 10 lashes. In June 1659, two Friends, William Robinson and Marmaduke Stephenson, felt called to go to Massachusetts, although a new law imposed the death penalty on Friends. A young lady named Patience Scott, the future daughter-in-law of Holder, accompanied them, as well as a Friend named Nicholas

010 Nicolas Davis Biography Davis. They were all thrown in jail, which prompted Mary Dyer to return and protest their treatment. For this action, she was put back in jail. Dyer was released after her husband wrote a letter to Endicott. On September 12 of that year, all of the Quakers were released from prison and banished, under pain of death. Robison and Stephenson stayed and continued to preach. They and Holder were put back in prison, prompting three womenMary Dyer, Hope Clifton, and Holders future wife, Mary Scottto come and visit them and plead for their release. Dyer was arrested yet again for speaking to Holder through the bars of his cell. Settlement In Rhode Island Holder eventually moved to Providence, Rhode Island and married Mary Scott on August 12, 1660. She was the daughter of Richard and Katherine (Marbury) Scott and the niece of Anne Hutchinson, who had also run afoul of the Puritan leaders in Massachusetts. With his first wife Holder had two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth. He married a woman named Hope Clifton after his first wife died, and they had seven more children, including Christopher, Jr. Holder is mentioned in Chapter 18 of George Foxs journal. He died in Rhode Island sometime after 1676. New England Quakers History Early Colonial New England History American colonies Quaker William Penn founded Pennsylvania As the movement expanded, it faced opposition and persecution. Friends were imprisoned and beaten in Great Britain, Ireland and the British colonies. In the Massachusetts Bay colony, Friends were banished on pain of death some (most famously Mary Dyer) were hanged on Boston Common for returning to preach their beliefs. In England, Friends were effectively banned from sitting in Parliament from 1698 to 1833. Friends were most welcome in Rhode Island and composed half of the population (the other half were Baptists), with 36 of the governors for the first 100 years being Quaker. Roger Williams, in addition to his Baptist affiliation, was one of the Seekers, a diverse group that attended George Fox in Cumbria before becoming organized by him as the Quakers, in County Durham. After the Burlington, Yorkshire migration to West Jersey, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn in 1682, as a safe place for Friends to live in and practice their faith. Indeed, the British crown had granted Pennsylvania outright to Penn, a Quaker, in settlement of a large debt to his father, so Friends governed it for over 80 years. Anne Hutchinsons exile to Eastchester (town), New York, was part of the general journey outwards from Puritan hostility, while East Jersey, Barbados and the Province of Carolina (under John Archdale) were also regions of Quakerism, with the latter also having Baptists, just as in Rhode Island. Quakerism was also clearly preceded in the Mid-Atlantic by the Maryland Toleration Act, until Anglicanism was forced upon Maryland by the Virginians. In the New Amsterdam colony, efforts by Peter Stuyvesant to suppress Quaker worship on Long Island led to the Flushing Remonstrance by Quakers and others. This led the Dutch to force Stuyvesant to allow Quaker worship and is one of the bases of religious toleration in the United States. The Quaker leader William Penn had signed a peace treaty with Tammany, leader of the Delaware tribe, beginning a long period or friendly relations between the Quakers and the Indians.[5] Additional treaties between Quakers and other tribes followed. The treaty of William Penn was never violated.[6] Friends had no ordained ministers and thus needed no seminaries for theological training. As a result they did not open any colleges in the colonial period, and did not join in founding the University of Pennsylvania. The first major Quaker colleges were all founded much later: Haverford College (1833), Earlham College (1844), Swarthmore College (1864), and Bryn Mawr College (1885).[7]

010 Nicolas Davis Biography

Nicholas Davis On Cape Cod 1640S , Barstable, Cape Cod Mass. Ancestral grandfather, Nicholas Davis, lived in the Town and County of Barnstable from 1643 to 1672 CE. His ancestors were farmers, and Puritans, in Kent County, England in the 1620s. Nicholas migrated in the early 1630s, along with his Uncle Dolar Davis, to Plymouth Colony. In 1650/51, he married Rev. Lothrops step-daughter, Sarah (Ewer) Blossom. Nicholas was among the first converts from Puritanism to Quakerism in 1658/59; Nicholas and Sarahs home in Barnstable was ransacked by Constables seeking heretical Quaker documents, and Nicholas was banished from Massachusetts because of his Quaker faith, upon pain of death, by Boston (Massachusetts Bay) Court authorities. His close friend, Mary Dyer, was convicted with Nicholas, but, unfortunately she immediately returned to Boston and was hanged there ca. 1660. It may be that Mary was the very first woman martyred on U.S. soil. They lost a two-year-old son who died by drowning in a creek near their home in Barnstable. From 1660 to 1664, Nicholas was among the first English landholders of Whitestone, Flushing, NY, and of Monmouth, NJ, both of which were early Quaker strongholds. Within the 1664 to 1666 CE time frame, Nicholas Davis purchased waterfront property in Hyannis from Sachem Iannou for 10 shillings, and he built the first commercial warehouse in Hyannis to pack and ship oysters around the world. Nicholas conducted extensive trade with the native Americans of Cape Cod, and imported expensive clothing material from England. The Inventory taken upon Nicholas death around 1673 showed that a dozen or so Cape Cod Indians owed him money. He gradually transformed from farmer to mariner. In 1672, Nicholas transported the founder of Quakerism, George Fox, on Nicholas private ship to Newport, RI, for George to attend a Friends Meeting there. Nicholas died by drowning in Newport Harbor as he departed. George Foxs Book Of Martyrs mentions Nicholas Davis at least 4 times. Nicholas was actually the nephew of Puritan Dolar (or Dolor) Davis, who lived as a carpenter and landholder in Barnstable from 1639 to his death around 1675. [Some genealogical publications incorrectly list Nicholas as Dolars son, based on speculation by Amos Otis.]

New England To New Jersey Quakers History Colonial N.J. And New England , Colonial New Jersey And New England Quakers This Quakers. The sect of Friends, who were called Quakers in derision, was founded at about the middle of the seventeenth century. At first they were called Professors (or Children) of the Light, because of their fundamental principle that the light of Christ within was Gods gift of salvationthat Light which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. It is said that GEORGE FOX, the founder of the sect, when brought before magistrates at Derby, England, in 1650,told them to quake before the Lord, when one of them (Gelvase Bennet) caught up the word quake, and was the first who called the sect Quakers. They were generally known by that name afterwards. They spread rapidly in England, and were severely persecuted by the Church and State. At one time there were 4,000 of them in loathsome prisons in England. The most prominent of Foxs disciples was William Penn, who did much to alleviate

010 Nicolas Davis Biography their sufferings. Many died in prison or from the effects of imprisonment. Grievous fines were imposed, a large portion of which went to informers. They were insulted by the lower classes; their women and children were dragged by the hair along the streets; their meeting-houses were robbed of their windows; and, by order of King Charles and the Arch-New Netherland. He compelled the Lutherans to conform, and did not allow other sects to take root there. In 1657 a ship arrived at New Amsterdam, having on board several of the accursed sect called Quakers. They had been banished from Boston, and were on their way from Barbadoes to Rhode Island, where all kinds of scum dwell, wrote Dominie Megapolenses, for it is nothing else than a sink of New England. Among the Friends were Dorothy Waugh and Mary Witherhead. They went from street to street in New Amsterdam, preaching their new doctrine to the gathered people. Stuyvesant ordered the women to be seized and cast into prison, where, for eight days, they were imprisoned in dirty, vermin-infested cells, with their hands tied behind them, when they were sent on board the ship in which they came, to be transported to Rhode Island. Robert Hodgson, who determined to remain in New Netherland, took up his abode at Hempstead, where a few Quakers were quietly settled. There he held a meeting, and Stuyvesant ordered him to his prison at New Amsterdam. Tied to the tail of a cart wherein sat two young women, offenders like himself, he was driven by a band of soldiers during the night through the woods to the city, where he was imprisoned in a filthy jail, under sentence of such confinement for two years, to pay a heavy fine, and to have his days spent in hard labor, chained to a wheel-barrow with a negro, who lashed him with a heavy tarred rope. He was subjected to other cruel treatment at the hands of the governor, until the Dutch people, as well as the English, cried Shame! There were no other persecutions of the Friends in New Netherland after Hodgsons release. Quaker Appearing Before Court of Charles II. The executions of Mary Dyer [FRIEND OF NICHOLAS DAVIS] in 1660 and William Leddra in 1661, both in Boston, caused an amazing addition to the number of converts to Quakerism. The same year monthly meetings were established in several places in New England, and not long afterwards quarterly meetings were organized. On hearing of the death of Leddra, Charles II. sent an order to Endicott to stop the persecutions and to send all accused persons to England for trial. This order was sent by the hand of Samuel Shattuck, a banished Quaker, who appeared before Governor Endicott with his hat on. The incensed governor was about to take the usual brutal steps to send him to prison, after ordering an officer to remove Shattucks hat, when the latter handed the magistrate the order from the throne. Endicott was thunderstruck. He handed back Shattucks hat and removed his own in deference to the presence of the Kings messenger. He read the papers, and, directing Shattuck to withdraw, simply remarked, We shall obey his Majestys commands. A hurried conference was held with the other magistrates and ministers. They dared not send the accused persons to England, for they would be swift witnesses against the authorities of Massachusetts; so they ordered William Sutton, keeper of the Boston jail, to set all the Quakers free. So ended their severe persecution in New England; but the magistrates continued for some time to whip Quaker men and women, half naked, through the streets of Boston and Salem, until peremptorily forbidden to do so by the King. After Massachusetts had suspended its laws against Quakers, Parliament made a law (1662) which provided that every five Quakers, meeting for religious worship, should be fined, for the first offence, $25; for the second offence, $50; and for the third offence to abjure the realm on oath, or be transported to the American colonies. Many refused to take the oath, and were transported. By an act of the Virginia legislature, passed in 1662, every master of a vessel who should import a Quaker, unless such as had been shipped from England under the above act, was subjected to a fine of 5,000 lbs. of tobacco for the first offence. Severe laws against other sectaries were passed in Virginia, and many of the Non-conformists in that colony, while Berkeley ruled, fled deep into the wilderness to avoid persecution. Because the Friends refused to perform military duty or take an oath in Maryland they were subject to fines and imprisonment, but were not persecuted there on account of their religious views. When, in 1676, George Fox was in Maryland, his preaching was not hindered. He might be seen on the shores of the

010 Nicolas Davis Biography Chesapeake, preaching at the evening twilight, when the labors of the day were over, to a multitude of people, comprising members of the legislature and other distinguished men of the province, yeomen, and large groups of Indians, with chiefs and sachems, their wives and children, all led by their emperor. Fenwick, one of the purchasers of west Jersey, made the first settlement of members of his sect at Salem. Liberal offers were made to Friends in England if they would settle in New Jersey, where they would be free from persecution, and in 1677 several hundred came over. In March a company of 230 came in the ship Kent. Before they sailed King Charles gave them his blessing. The Kent reached New York in August, with commissioners to manage public affairs in New Jersey. The arrival was reported to Andros, who was governor of New York, and claimed political jurisdiction over the Jerseys. Fenwick, who denied the jurisdiction of the Duke of York in the collection of customs duties, was then in custody at New York, but was allowed to depart with the other Friends, on his own recognizance to answer in the autumn. On Aug. 16 the Kent arrived at New Castle, but it was three months before a permanent place was settled upon. That place was on the Delaware River, and was first named Beverly. Afterwards it was called Bridlington, after a parish in Yorkshire, England, whence many of the emigrants had come. The name was corrupted to Burlington, which it still bears. There the passengers of the Kent settled, and were soon joined by many others. The village prospered, and other settlements were made in its vicinity. Nearly all the settlers in west Jersey were members of the Society of Friends, or Quakers. One of the earliest erected buildings for the public worship of Friends in New Jersey was at Crosswicks, about half-way between Allentown and the Delaware River. Before the Revolution they built a spacious meeting-house there of imported brick. Colonial Quaker Town From the founding of the government of Pennsylvania the rule of the colony was held by the Quakers, they being more numerous than others. When wars with the French and Indians afflicted the colonies their peace principles made the members of the Assembly of that sect oppose appropriations of men and money for war purposes. When, in 1755, the frontiers of Pennsylvania were seriously threatened, the Quakers, though still a majority in the Assembly, could no longer resist the loud cry To arms in Philadelphia and reechoed from the frontiers. The hostile Indians were among the Juniata settlements. The proprietary party successfully stirred up the people. After a sharp struggle, the Assembly, in consideration of a voluntary subscription of 5,000 by the proprietaries. consented to levy a tax of 50,000, from which the estates of the latter were exempted. The expenditure of the amount was entrusted to a committee of seven, of whom a majority were members of the Assembly; and these became the managers of the war, now formally declared, against the Delawares and Shawnees. So the golden chain of friendship which bound the Indians to William Penn was first broken. This was the first time the Quakers were driven into an open participation in war. Some of the more conscientious resigned their seats in the Assembly, and others declined a reelection. So it was that, in 1755, the rule of the Quakers in the administration of public affairs in Pennsylvania came to an end. The Testimony of Friends, or Quakers, at their yearly meeting in Philadelphia in May, 1775, against the movements of the American patriots attracted special attention to that body. The papers and records of their yearly meeting in New Jersey, captured by Sullivan in his expedition against the loyalist regiments on Staten Island, gave Congress the first proof of the general disaffection of the society. The Congress recommended the executives of the several colonies or States to watch their movements; and the executive council of Pennsylvania were earnestly exhorted to arrest and secure the persons of eleven of the leading men of that society in Philadelphia, whose names were given. It was done, Aug. 28, 1777, and John Fisher, Abel James, James Pemberton, Henry Drinker, Israel Pemberton, John Pemberton, John James, Samuel Pleasants, Thomas Wharton, Sr., Thomas Fisher, and Samuel Fisher, leading members, were banished to Fredericksburg, Va. The reason given by Congress for this act was that when the enemy were pressing on towards Philadelphia in December, 1777, a certain seditious publication, addressed To our Friends and Brethren in Religious Profession in these and the adjacent Provinces, signed John Pemberton, in and on behalf of the Meeting of Sufferings, held in Philadelphia, Dec. 26, 1776, had

010 Nicolas Davis Biography been widely circulated among Friends throughout the States. At the same time the Congress instructed the board of war to send to Fredericksburg John Penn, the governor, and Benjamin Chew, chief-justice of Pennsylvania, for safe custody. While the British army was in Philadelphia in 1778, Joseph Galloway, an active Tory, and others employed John Roberts and Abraham Carlisle, members of the Society of Friends, as secret agents in detecting foes to the British government. Carlisle was a sort of inquisitor-general, watching at the entrances to the city, pointing out and causing the arrest of Whigs, who were first cast into prison and then granted permission to pass the lines. Both Roberts and Carlisle acted as guides to British expeditions when they went out of Philadelphia to fall upon and massacre their countrymen. These facts being laid before Congress, that body caused the arrest of Roberts and Carlisle. They were tried, found guilty, and hanged.

They petitioned England's King James I to grant them a charter, which he did more than a year later in 1606, and then again in 1609 and 1612. These charters gave the Virginia Company the authority to establish and govern a colony on the coast of America. The Second Charter was given exclusively to the Virginia Company of London.

010 William Barnett I Biography William The Migrant Barnett William was also known as William The Migrant Barnett (per Dale P Barnett tree). The derry cathedral, Parish of Templemore Register 1642, lists the baptisms. The following was published in the Belfast Ireland Times in 1858 by R.M. Sebbets, Historian There was a William Barnett, born ca 1609 migrated from Scotland to Ireland prior to 1634, who was a weaver, a manufacturer of wool, and he settled in Londonderry, Ireland, where he died 5 January 1652 and was buried there. His wife was Margaret born ca 1613 and she died Londonderry, 19 Feb. 1682.

The Barnetts The Barnett family is allied with the Scotch house of Livingston, and in the sixteenth century a branch was transported from Scotland to county Derry, Ireland. The Barnetts were prominently associated with the political life of Belfast and Dublin and with their educational and benevolent institutions. One of them held the office of mayor of Dublin, and another served in defense of Londonderry. This family were the founders of the Presbyterian church in Ireland. The Barnetts were a Presbyterian family, driven by the Church of England under King James I from Scotland to Londonderry, Northern Ireland before 1634. Between 1728 and 1730, continuing persecution drove then on to America.
