OBITUARY.
Governor William Walker.
Wyandott Herald of February 19, 1874


  The distinguished gentleman whose name heads this article was for many years as well known in Kansas as any citizen in the State.
  He was born at Gibralter, Michigan, March 5th, 1799, and died at the residence of Mr. H. H. Smalley in Kansas City, Mo., on Friday, the 13th inst., having accomplished seventy-five years of useful and eventful life.
  Governor Walker received a thorough education at Worthington, Ohio, under the immediate instruction of the venerable Bishop Chase.
  After acquiring his education, William Walker entered almost at once upon an active life in behalf of the North American Indians in general, and of the Wyandott Nation in particular, among whom he became leader and counselor, devoting the best years of his life to their interests.
  As early as 1831 he visited the "Platte Purchase" as agent of the Wyandott Nation with a view to purchasing a new location for it. He was at the treaty of St, Marys and rendered efficient services to all contracting parties.
  He was for some years the private Secretary and friend of Gen. Lewis Cass, his secretaryship beginning after the close of the war of 1812, and the friendship continuing until the death of the General.
  In 1843 William Walker came to Kansas with his tribe, where he has remained ever since, except when he was called away on business or for his health which for some years has been feeble.
  He acquired his title of Governor in 1853, when he was appointed Provisional Governor of Kansas Territory,
  With him died more Indian archaeological knowledge than has been preserved by any writer on the subject. Indian antiquity and history were his special study, and being an Indian hi^iself, highly educated and with a natural taste in that direction, his success was not surprising.
  He furnished Schoolcraft with a large amount of information contained in his works on the Indians of North America, and also gave General Butterfield many incidents contained in his new work on Crawford's campaign against Sandusky.
  Governor Walker wrote much himself for newspapers and periodicals but unfortunately has left none of the results of his deep research in a form to be used by the historian or antiquary.
  He was buried on Saturday last in Oak Grove Cemetery, with Masonic honors, having been one of the Charter Members of Wyandott Lodge No. 3, and for many years an honorary member thereof.
  So has passed away one of our oldest and most valued citizens.

Although I've found no years-compatible Ohio marriage for Joseph Whaley & Elizabeth, there is an 1824 marriage of Joseph Wiley and Elizabeth Wiley in Belmont Co, OH (just east of Zanesville, Muskingum Co, OH). It is possible that this is Joseph Whaley. This marriage in 1824 is a couple years before the first child by the Whaley couple is reported.

Note: In the record for Victoria Teel's 1915 marriage to Charles Holley, she is cited as being 26 years old and single. However, the death certificate of Daymon Teel, born in 1898, listing her as his mother, and her own death certificate giving her birth year as 1874, presents a very different and much more likely age than represented on her marriage record. The death record of her husband, Charles W. Holley, does show her as his widow (and informant).

• Two Muster Rolls where a William McCauley was on board the U.S. Schooner Enterprize. It appears this was a different McCauley from Lake Champlain area.
• Loyalist Land Grants. Neither William nor his brother were Loyalists. Just what Orange County was referred to is unclear, but evidently not in North Carolina in 1786.

See note on the page of William McCauley (1747-1825) regarding the unproven 1767 marriage to him previously indicated on his and her pages. Note: William did not emigrate from Ireland until the 1770s. For now, this Catherine along with her ancestor lineages, have been intentionally orphaned in the site database.

William McCauley was previously shown on this site as Major William James McCauley...and that he was born Sep 1738. That William was a Major, and then a Colonel is documented (see Pension Claim of William Brittain). Due to lack of documentation that he had a middle name James or otherwise, or that his birth date is known, he is no longer shown with these. — There is but scant documentation for his being married to Catherine Catred Johnstone, to wit: A historical summary of people and events surrounding the McCauley Family Cemetery, "located on a promontory above University Lake on land acquired by the University of North Carolina" states in a discussion about his brother, Matthew: "Older brother William was born in Country Antrim [sic] in about 1747, emigrated with his two small children (James and Jane) and his brother Matthew to North Carolina in the 1770s, and married Katherine Johnston Long, a widow, in the same year.". Note: Although 1747 is used here, this year is also not documented with primary documents.

The birthplace of Joseph Bevis, Engineer, is unclear:

    • same man
    • same wife
    • same children
  • 1870 census, Joseph is not found
  • 1880 census shows Joseph as born in Delaware...living with his second wife, Ann Partridge.

Albert's death certificate states his birth date as 15 Mar 1917. Very likely, this is a transcription error. Since this would make his mother 60 or greater at his birth, it is believed this is in error. This is confirmed by the 1910 census (on pg.2 of 2), in which he is given as age 3, placing his birth year at 1907. (Birth also given as March 7, 1906-07.)

I've found no documentation of parents for William V. Adkins (Atkins, Atkinson). Long-standing information of his parents as John Thomas Adkins, Jr. and Elizabeth Bromwell (presented on this site and many others for many years) have contradicting evidence suggesting these were not his parents.

The William Atkins/Adkins born 28 March 1689, was born in Sandy, Bedfordshire, England and was buried there 9 September 1704, preceded by both his parents, who were also buried there (i.e.-not in Virginia).

Information about Darius Nash Couch having a son named Robert apparently came from a mis-copying of a transcription of Appletons Cyclopædia of American Biographies, pages 753-754 (James Grant Wilson & John Fiske, 1887). The information about a son named Robert Jackson on those pages actually refers to Robert Jackson Coudin (Cowdin), whose son Robert did exist and died at the Battle of Cold Harbor. By all verifiable accounts and modern day testimony of his direct descendants, Darius never had a son named Robert.

• Euna's 1952 delayed birth certificate, filed when she was 60 years old (done by recollection and records which often vary), gives her father's name as William Willington Plumley, whereas his name was William Wiley Plumley. Notice on the certificate that his name was initially entered as simply William Willington, and later, Plumley was entered as a correction.
• This same certificate also cites an affidavit by her Aunt Edna Todd; however, Edna Todd was actually Mary Edna Plumley Todd, her older sister (married to James Oliver Todd).

John was born to Jacob and Margaret Miller from Hesse, Germany in Falkner's Swamp north of Philadelphia. He was christened at the Tulpehocken Lutheran Church in Berks County on November 23, 1733. His family moved to Linville Creek in the Shenandoah Valley about 1750, nearly the same time the Lincolns and Boones also moved there from Berks County. John then married Barbara Mauzy of Fauquier County about 1765. They moved their family to Indian Creek near Greenville in what was then Botetourt County, Virginia, probably after his father Jacob had died in 1772 and maybe with Valentine Cook of Linville Creek in 1773. John helped build Cook's Fort 1/4 mile west of Greenville, where some of their 10 children were born. This Fort was used to muster the Botetourt County Militia for the Point Pleasant Battle in 1774 and was a refuge from the Indians whenever they attacked. Their farm grew to 983 acres in what became Monroe County in 1799 and their Miller-Pence Farm and Miller-Halstead Cemetery were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.

Oren Frederick Morton's 1916 book "A History of Monroe County" says John once thought he could see a plumed head from a distance as he heard a turkey gobbling noise. Thinking an Indian was trying to lure him from his house, he went out the back door with his rifle, took a circuit of nearly a mile, then came up behind the still gobbling Indian and shot and scalped him. Morton also said Panther Hollow on Indian Creek was named when John heard a piece of bark fall from a tree and looked up to see a panther ready to spring, so he quickly fired and killed it.

In 1777, John served in the Revolutionary War with Captain John Preston in the Montgomery County Militia and is #A208591 in the DAR Register, which has his birthdate as ca1735. In 1780, he also served as a Greenbrier County juror after it was formed in 1777. John was then buried as J. M. in the Miller-Halstead Cemetery, when he died in 1826 at the age of 93.

Michael Biskup, age 60, arrived in New York City, United States in 1880 from Posen, Germany on the ship Gellert. He was accompanied by Josefine Biskup, age 55, and Ignatz Biskup, age 21. A notation on the immigration record indicates that Michael & Josefine already lived in St. Louis, Missouri prior to this journey.

Also in 1880, Michael Biskup, age 61 & Justine Biskup, age 56, appear in the census in St. Louis, living in the family of their daughter, Maggie, who was married to Joseph Biskup. In the census, they are given as the inlaws of Joseph.

From 1882-1885 (St. Louis (Missouri) city directory, 1880-1900 ed.), Michael Biskup is shown as a tailor in St. Louis, along with Joseph & Ignatz Biskup (both tailors) & Roman Biskup (tailor/cutter). A Michael Biskup appears as a tailor in 1897 and 1899. (Note: In 1899, there are two Michaels as tailors; these are probably grandsons. These various Biskups were often found living at the same address or next door.)

In 1922, the death certificate of Ignatz J. Biskup (a tailor) gives Michael Biskup of Germany as his father (mother not given in this document). [The age given in the Find A Grave memorial for Michael Biskup matches that of the Michael Biskup who accompanied Josephine & Ignatz Biskup on the ship Gellert in 1880.]

Confusing information on the mother of Ignatz Biskup is given in the 1910 census in St. Louis, giving her as Auguste Biskup of Germany, age 74, and living in the family of Ignatz & Caroline (Ruhl) Biskup and their children. As there is a 12-year difference in age between Josefine/Justine Biskup and Auguste Biskup, it is clear these are not the same person. This would seem to indicate that Michael Biskup's children had more than one mother.

CRITICAL #1: The records cited by myself and others do not prove that the Elizabeth Claypoole who married William Pettyjohn was from these Claypoole roots. Closer examination reveals the following:

James Claypoole, son of Sir John Claypoole & Mary Angell, was one of three emigrant brothers, who came to America in the 17th century. His 14 children are known, and he did not have a daughter, Elizabeth, born in 1687. In actual fact, James died in December 1686, with his will proved in Aug 1687. It would be almost impossible for him to have had a daughter born after his death (referring to the oft-quoted birth date for Elizabeth of 16 May 1687).

Further, some report that Elizabeth was born in London, England area; however, according to that date she was born after the arrival in America.

James did have a daughter named Elizabeth, his 14th child, born 25 May 1678, who died 31 May 1678.

James' emigrant brother, Norton, had a daughter named Elizabeth, born 16 May 1687, the likely source for this date. However, this Elizabeth also died in infancy.

The above is taken from "The Claypool(e) Family in America", by Evelyn Claypool Bracken, published in 1971. Certain of the above information in her book was taken from "The Compendium of American Genealogy, First Families in America, Vol. 7".

CRITICAL #2:The book "Something of the Pettijohn (Pettijohn) Family, et. al. gives the following re person 5, William Pettyjohn:

"WILLIAM PETTYJOHN 3-2, born probably about 1691, either in Virginia, or in Sussex county, Del., and died at the latter place between Jan. 15, 1749, the date of his will, and Feb. 2, following, when it was probated. Tradition has it that he married Elizabeth Claypoole, born May 16, 1687. Their children: William 4-5-6; Esther 4-5-75; Agatha 4-5-76; Mary 4-5-77; Sarah 4-5; Levinah 4-5-78.""Something of the Pettijohn (Pettijohn) Family: with particular reference to the descendants of James Pettyjohn of Hungar's Parish, Northhampton County, Virginia" compiled by Era Jane Pettijohn Chamberlain of Buhl, Idaho, and Clive Abraham Pettijohn of Davenport, Washington, published in 1948.

Although this seems to correctly set the birth date of Elizabeth Claypoole at 16 May 1687, the following considerations are necessary:

The information given by Era Jane and Clive Abraham Pettijohn rely on earlier research, cited in their work: One such work, "Dawes-Gates Ancestral Lines" (vol.2: Gates and Allied Families) by Rufus C. Dawes, published in 1931, mentions William Pettyjohn as marrying Elizabeth "possibly" Claypoole. No birth date or exact information is given for William's wife.

William is reported in "Something of the Pettijohn" as born either in Virginia or in Sussex County, Delaware in "probably 1691" and his marriage as "tradition has it" Elizabeth Claypoole. Regardless of whether William's wife's name was Elizabeth Claypoole, and regardless of whether that Elizabeth had a birth date of 16 May 1687 as reported here, it is pretty clear that this Elizabeth was not a daughter of James Claypoole, son of Sir John Claypoole & Mary Angell from England and living in Pennsylvania. When works cite information as "tradition", it means they are relying on former research or "often inaccurate" family records of their generation-by-generation gathered recollections which alone did not give clear information.

Previously, the parents of Simon were given here with his father as Lewis (as received from someone who visited England and did research there). Upon later reviewing (as the records became available to me as "The Register Baptisms Marriages & Burials-Parish of Hartland Devon {England}), the Lewis who married in Hartland, Devon, England and had a son, Symon, I do not believe this Symon born 1615 is our Simon born 1633. Even though I have unlinked them, you can still view that lineage here.

In further support that our Simon Couch (by any spelling) was not born in Hartland, Devon, England in 1633, I'm providing the pages showing the baptisms for Hartland in 1633. Reviewing other years back several decades also do not show him, except for Symon born in 1615.
View 1633 Baptisms — For now, I am retaining the birth information for Simon as 1633 in Devonshire, England because various sources give this date...and because Devon is a very large area, with Hartland being only a very small town as part of it at the time. Devon West District and the middle of Devon overall is roughly 40 miles from Hartland; which lies further west and north. Simon could have a birth record elsewhere in Devon (Devonshire).

A pen picture of Alexander Fletcher was written in 1896 by his grandson J. Wesley Fletcher. Grandfather soon after marriage settled below the Whirlpool on the British side of the Niagara where Uncle John was born. He afterward about 1800 moved to Darlington where he was Major of the 2nd Durham Militia and one of the first magistrates of Durham County then a part of York. He was a small man of considerable attainments; was very bright, systematic, shrewd, active, nervous, quick tempered, a very loyal British subject and a strict Presbyterian. He died in his 78th year and Grandmother (Rachel Corwin Fletcher) in her 72nd year." —The Ancestral Lines of Chester Everts Howell, Finch 1976

September 2021 Research by Doug Couch did not reveal ancestors or precise locations for Aaron J. Nash (Sr.), listed with Amelia as parents of Aaron J. Nash (Jr.) in his death record.

• The 1850 census or Royalton, Niagara County, New York, shows Aaron J. Nash (Jr.) & Margaret prior to their move to Michigan.

• History of Cass County, Michigan shows Aaron J. Nash (Jr.) & Margaret R. Nash arrived in Dowagiac, Michigan in 1854 from New York. The 1860, 1870 & 1880 censuses in Dowagiac show them as living there.

• Arriving in Washtenaw County, Michigan before 1840 (per census data), is one Aaron Nash (but arriving from where?). He is reported in 1840 as between 50-59 years of age (b.1881 or after), but in 1850 he is reported as age 66 (b.1784 in Connecticut).

• In New York, another Arron Nash is found living in Ballston, Saratoga County, New York in the 1840 & 1850 censuses. He is reported in 1840 as between 60-69 years of age (b.1771 or after), but in 1850 he is reported as age 82 (b.1768 in Connecticut), living daughter Mary Nash.

Without further data, it is not possible to determine exact information about Aaron J. Nash (Sr.). Of interesting note however is the fact that Royalton, NY is along the route going due west from Ballston, NY to Dowagiac, MI. View Route Map

My guess is that Aaron (Jr.) was born in Ballston, NY, moved to Royalton, NY and had the first four of his children there, then moved to Dowagiac, Michigan (likely after the death of his father), where he had two more children. His father, Aaron J. Nash (Sr.), born in Connecticut, only migrated to New York..

1. When Parker, born in 1763, married Mrs. Mary Willis in 1851, he was approximately 88 years old. It is very unlikely that he then continued to have children right up until his death in 1857.
2. Per his gravestone, Cumberland was born approximately two years after Parker's death. Caveat: Although Cumberland's gravestone gives his birth year as 1859, he appears with his "mother", Mary, and siblings in the 1870 census as being age 14; which would place his birth year around 1856.
3. Parker's last will and testament, issued by him and bearing his witnessed mark on May 9, 1857, included Mary, his then wife, and all his children (by Mary Lefon) as heirs, even including his granddaughter, Rebecca. However, no mention is made of these later children. If they were his children born before he died, he would have included them.
Possibility: These children were adopted and given a home and a life, but not inheritance. Such a possibility would also explain why his daughter Elizabeth, born in probably 1857, was cited as having Parker as her father. Her death certificate gives her birth year as 1858; which clearly would preclude his being her father, adoptive or otherwise. However, death certificate birth dates are sometimes the mistaken recollection of the person giving the information. The birth years of these children indicate they were not stepchildren at the time of Parker's & Mary's marriage, and adoption seems the most likely reason for their being cited as children of Parker and Mary.

Biographical Sketch of Alexander Walker (1765-1824)
~ and Indian encounter story ~
(Genealogy of the Descendants of John Walker of Wigton, Scotland, by Emma Siggins White. Published 1902 by Tiernan-Dart Publishing, Kansas City, KS. Index 2966, pg. 363.)

ALEXANDER Walker3 (1948) (Alexander2 John1); the eighth child of Alexander Walker and Jane Hummer (Hammer). He was b. July 12, 1765. He was twice married. His first wife was Mary Magdalene Harmon, whom he married on March 23, 1790. After her death he married Margaret (Peggy) Combs.

"I wish to relate one incident in relation to my grandfather, Alexander Walker, as I remember hearing my father, Allen H. Walker, relate it, when I was a boy. Sometime in 1790, grandfather wanted to go back to Virginia on business, and as there were no cars in those days, he was in no ways deterred from his purpose by the thought that the journey must be made, if at all, on foot. His preparations were simple. He parched some corn—this he placed in one end of a sack, in the other end he put a saddle of dried venison. After committing his wife and little ones to the care of the Allwise Father, he called his faithful dog and started on his long journey through the trackless forest, which at that time was infested with Indians. At night he would light a fire with the aid of his flint and punk ; after eating his supper he would clear away a warm place to sleep where his fire had been, being careful to put out all the fire, that it might not be the means of disclosing his whereabouts to the Indians. But one night he failed to extinguish all the fire, and was awakened by the growl of his dog. He saw a large Indian standing near, with a drawn tomahawk. He whispered to the dog, "catch him," and with one bound dog and Indian went out into the brush together. The faithful dog soon returned, but grandfather never looked to see what became of the Indian. I write this to show our children some of the perils their forefathers had to endure, before the comfortable homes of to-day were prepared for them.
T. G. WALKER, Macomb, Ill."

Biographical Sketch of Andrew Harmon Walker
(from findagrave.com - apparently appeared with his obituary)


Andrew Harmon Walker, deceased, was married March 20, 1834, to Jane Campbell, daughter of Alexander Campbell. Six children were born of this marriage--Margaret, Alexander C., Joseph Gilmer, Isabella, Cynthia, and a child which died in infancy. Mrs. Walker died October 29, 1845. January 31, 1850, Mr. Walker married Mrs. Mary Noel, who was a native of Virginia. By this marriage there were six children--William A., Cyrus A., Montgomery Allen, Martha J., Marion Alice, Ellen M. Mr. Walker during his lifetime was a prominent resident of the county, and after his death the following biographical sketch appeared in the Macomb Journal of January 22, 1885:

"Andrew Harmon Walker, the subject of this sketch, was born on the 16th day of August, 1808, near Columbia, Adair county, Kentucky. He had nine brothers and four sisters--all of whom are now dead except Quintus Walker, who is living in this county, Rev. Thomas Walker, who is living in Kansas, and Cynthia Campbell, also in Kansas. When three years old his mother died, and when he was about 16 years of age his father died. He was early destined by his father to be a lawyer, and to that end was given the best educational advantages that the state afforded. Although always opposed to a public life, in order to please his father and older brother, Cyrus, who was a member of the profession, he consented to prepare himself for the bar. He obtained his license, and made speeches, in which he gave promise of a brilliant and successful career, but, being always of a quiet and retiring disposition, he decided that a public life would not suit him. In 1830, he, in company with his younger brothers, sister and step-mother, left Kentucky and came to Sangamon county, and in the fall of 1831, they moved to Camp creek in this county. Andrew had, however, before this made several trips through McDonough, and had been in Macomb when it was first surveyed. In 1834 he was married to Jane Campbell, and in 1836, he moved to Walnut Grove township, where he remained until his death. He made a profession of religion when he was 29 years of age, but never united with a church, and those of his children and friends, who were with him in his last sickness, feel that they do not mourn as those who have no hope. His first two winters in Illinois were times of great privation--the first winter was that of the deep snow; the next, they being short of provisions on Camp creek, Andrew took a pack-horse and went back to Sangamon county for supplies. Before he started back the weather became very cold, but fearing the family would suffer, he started on his homeward journey. In crossing the river on the ice, when about the middle, the ice began to crack, and fearing it would break, left his horse and ran for the bank. Upon reaching safety, and looking back he saw his horse still standing in the middle of the river, and returning brought the animal across; and though impeded by snow, reached home safely, where he found the family in a destitute condition. He taught district school for a number of terms in McDonough county. Owing to his aversion to public life, he would never accept any office, unless there was no one else that could fill the place. He filled the office of school trustee for several years, and also that of school treasurer. He was in the Mormon war as a volunteer. His wife died October 28, 1845, and for several years he was father and mother both to his children. After several years he married Mrs. Mary Noel, who survives him. He was the father of 12 children. His first wife's children were Margaret Michaels, who died a few years ago in Missouri; A. C. Walker, who is living in Little River, Kansas; J. G. Walker, who is near Salisbury, Missouri; Isabella Scott, living in Walnut Grove township, this county; Cynthia Axtell, living in Kansas, and a child which died in infancy; his second wife's children were W. A. Walker, living in Baileyville, Kansas; C. A. and M. A. Walker, who live on the old homestead, and three who died in infancy. He was sick for some time before his death, and his disease was of a peculiar and trying nature. He suffered a great deal, but tried hard to be patient in all his afflictions. He died about five o'clock a. m., January 6, 1885. The funeral took place the next day, attended by a large concourse of friends and relatives. The sermon was preached by the Rev. H. J. Frothingham, of Bushnell. The remains were buried in the Pearce cemetery."

ANDREW HAMMOND Walker4 (2966) (Alexander3, Alexander2, John1) ; b. Aug. 16, 1808, in Adair County, Ky. He attended school near home, studying Greek and Latin evenings at home by the light of pine knots, old fashioned fireplaces being commonly used then, and material for lights scarce. He attended a law school at Columbia, Ky., graduating in 1828, but never practiced. His father dying about this time, he, with his stepmother, brothers and sisters, moved to Illinois, settling in 1830 near Clara's Grove, Morgan County. He taught school for awhile, but a deep fall of snow prevented the children from attending, and the school had to be abandoned. The family moved in 1831 to Camp Creek, McDonough County. He m. March 20, 1834, Jane Campbell, making their home in Walnut Grove Township. The nearest church organization, which the family often attended was 10 miles northeast of Macomb, they having to travel all this distance on horseback. He was at one time County Superintendent of Schools, being well fitted for the position. His wife was b. May 8, 1812, and d. Oct. 29, 1845. After liis first wife died he m. Jan. 31, 1850, Mrs. Mary Noel (her maiden name being Hogsett). His second wife moved to California with her son, Cyrus Abner, in 1892, and they now live at Mt. Sterling, Cal. She is a member of the Presbyterian Church, Cyrus being a Methodist. Andrew Walker d. Jan. 6, 1885. He visited his cousin, Joel Walker (No. 1828), in 1856, and made a copy of the original Walker Record compiled by Joel Walker.

Abraham Workman and Annetje Smith, and their children and ancestors, often cited as being the parents of Joseph Workman (variously represented as born 1732-1736), have no documented son named Joseph.
Abraham's children have been researched carefully in Anderson (Workman Family History) and no son named Joseph, or John, or Isaac are mentioned, even though the oft-"estimated" birth years fit nicely into the 7-year gap in the child-bearing of Annetje with Abraham. Abraham's cousin, Isaac Workman, also descended from John William Workman/Woertman, but through Peter rather than Jans, did have three sons by these same names. Isaac's son, Joseph, is represented in Anderson's work as born in 1735 in Somerset Co., NJ, and her extensive research shows him as the Joseph who enlisted under Capt. Jackson and Capt. Stewart, drawn by her from original sources (noting that such Revolutionary War records do not always fully identify who is who). Therefore, our web site shows Joseph's father as Isaac and cites his lineage to John William.

BEWARE: Please note that the records given here may or may not accurately be parental information for John Siner/Sinah, Sr., the Revolutionary War soldier. Records from databases associated with the LDS church such as found on ancestry.com and familysearch.org, are often compilations of data submitted by members. With the advent of the Internet, such databases have become less and less reliable while becoming more and more available.

Additionally, as an example, the book excerpt from the Parish Register of Christ Church in Middlesex County, Virginia, published in 1897 gives but scanty information using a spelling of the Sinor name other than Sinor. Supporting the spelling given there are the Revolutioinary War military service records of John Sinah; whose name also appears in those records occasionally as John Siner (in the same regiment and company with the same soldiers as peers).

To date, I haven't seen any solid documentation that Mary, wife of Joseph Sinah, was the widow of a Mr. Small. The record image shown here, offering Joseph Sineth married to Mary Small is an LDS-related databse record, existing primarily because this information was submitted by someone.

Other LDS-related database records give Joseph as being born 19 Aug 1718 as a son of John Senar in Wragby, Metropolitan Borough of Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England. The same database gives a John Senar born in York in 1640. Although possible, it is unlikely that John Senar at age 78, had a son Joseph. The database record for John Senar gives William Senar as his father. Again, the same database records give a William Senar born in 1635, obviously not the father of John. If there is a relationship at all, it would be that John and William are brothers rather than parent and child, with neither of them being a parent of Joseph.

820 A Brief Biographical Sketch of John Edward Proctor and his extended family

John Edward Proctor was born February 10, 1752 in Stafford County, Virginia. What he did as a youngster and what his parents names were are unknown at this time. It has been suggested his mother remarried to a man whose name was Edward Riley and for some years they made their home in Fauquier County, Virginia.

In the year 1777 he went to the Fauquier County courthouse and enlisted in the militia. He served 3 to 5 years and was supposedly at The Battle of Brandywine, Battle of the Cowpens, and The Siege of Yorktown. He was discharged and came back to Fauquier County and in that same county on December 21, 1786, he married Elizabeth Hudnall, the daughter of Joseph Hudnall and Mary Ann Taylor. How often the family moved around during the next twenty years is unknown but it is rumoured that John had traveled to Mayesville, Mason County, Kentucky with his brother-in-law Benjamin Hudnall as Tennant Farmers. What I do know is that by 1810 they seem to have made a permanent home in Kanawha County (W.)Va. When the family first arrived in Kanawha they lived somewhere on Paint Creek, later John bought some land from William Morris on Kelly's Creek (which is located in Cedar Grove, WV) and in 1828 he received more of the same land from the Govenor by way of a land grant. Their neighbors included the Morris family and the Hansford Family. They attended the first church in the area, which was established in 1786 by the Elder James Johnson and was called Kanawha Baptist Church. John had lost his oldest son William around 1830, so he went to live with his son John, who in 1816 had relocated to Randolph County, Indiana. Around the time of his relocation to Indiana, the war department was looking for soldiers whose records were destroyed by fire in 1812. In 1833, Elizabeth was still living and where she died may always be a mystery. John stayed for a couple years in Indiana before setting of on the rest of his journey. From Indiana he traveled through Illinois, Arkansas, and to Bowie County, Texas with his son Nathan. In 1851 John Edward Jr. went west for a herd and to bring his aging father with him back to what was then and now called Elkhart County, Indiana. Upon his return to Indiana, he proceeded to try to claim his pension and was denied it for lack of proof. He died in Elkhart County, Indiana at the home of his son on January 11, 1856 and was buried in the Heaton Family Cemetery, now named the John Proctor Cemetery. John and Elizabeth's children were; William Proctor was born 1787 Fauquier County Va. He married Anna Martin September 14, 1806 in Kanawha County, (W)Va. And died c1830 in Kanawha County, (W)Va. What became of his children is unknown at this time but it is assumed they went to Indiana to live with their Uncle John.

John Proctor was born 1791 and died in Elkhart County, Indiana. He married Rebecca Spangler in Kanawha County, (W)Va in the year 1813. John and Rebecca left Kanawha County in 1816 to move to Indiana. Frances Proctor was born c1788 and married Joseph Hughes, both Frances and her husband Joseph were dead in 1850, it is not known where they died. Reuben Proctor was born 1799 and married Jane Hudnall, Jane was the daughter of Benjamin Hudnall and Nancy Riley. Reuben and Jane remained in Kanawha County. Tyler Proctor was born 1798 in Kanawha County and died c1853 in that same county. Tyler married Mary Hudnall, also a daughter of Benjamin Hudnall and Nancy Riley c1823. Tyler and Mary remained in Kanawha County. Mary died after 1870 and is found selling her Dowager rights from the land on Paint Creek to Aaron Stockton. Nathan Proctor was born 1796 and married Sarah /unknown/. Nathan and Sarah moved to Bowie County, Texas. There is a Mayberry Proctor born c1810, it is not known whether he belonged to John Proctor Senior or to his son William.

HOWEVER, Barbe Grenot died 17 Jan 1843; whereas daughter Eleonore was born 15 Apr 1843, showing Barbe could not be Eleonore's mother, but was instead her father. Looking further at Eleonore's interment record, it lists parents with Barbe Grenot first, and specifically says that Patrice Albriet was his wife.

835 Bergondy Lapice, the eldest son of Pierre Michel Ambroise Lapice, was born in Mississippi after his larger family arrived in the United States as a result of the Haitian Revolution. In a biographical sketch of Bergondy in "Biographical and historical memoirs of Louisiana..., v.1" held by Hathi Trust, pp.533-534, two things stand out as defining certain aspects of the family's history and standing.

"His [Bergondy's] father Pierre Michel La Pice de Bergondy, was born on the island of San Domingo in 1797, and was a descendant of a noble Normandy family to whom were granted lands by Louis XIV, of France."

"The grandfather [of Bergondy] was a large sugar and coffee planter of the island...".


Records about heirship related to reparations to former land and plantation owners and their heirs as one result of the Haitian Revolution show the Derouville, Grenot and Lapice families' heirship and interrelationships. Although the Haitians achieved independence, it came at the high, impoverishment-causing price of reparations levied by France under threat of continued war and re-enslavement. These three families and many others who went into exile were fortunate to escape St. Dominigue (Santo Domingo/Hispaniola) with their lives after their lands had been confiscated. These name and relationship records, on the web site domingino.de by Dr. Oliver Gliech, are encapsulated in the following two lists:

1. "The Settlers of St.-Domingue—Names of Proprietors (1789)"

2. "Other inhabitants of Santo Domingo 1750-1826—Heirs of former settlers"

Marie Jeanne Angelique Derouville Grenot [Great Grandmother of Bergondy, she was a settler of Santo Domingo and a source of her descendants' ownership and/or heirship] (Note: Rouville, France is in Normandy, not far from the port, Le Havre, where some emigrants embarked toward St. Domingue.)
Pierre Michel Lapice dit Bergondy [Grandfather of Bergondy and Son-in-law of Marie Grenot...married to her daughter, Rose Eleonore Elizabeth Grenot, was also a settler of Santo Domingo and a source of ownership and/or heirship through his marriage into the Derouville-Grenot family] Note: This Pierre was the last to hold the title, "de Bergondy".
——(Pierre Michel Ambroise Lapice (known as P.M. Lapice), the son of Pierre and Rose, was heir to the title, "de Bergondy", but never actually held it because the title became defunct during the French Revolution (and Haitian Revolution). He is not listed as heir.)
Rose Eleonore Elizabeth Grenot Lapice [Grandmother of Bergondy and daughter of Marie Grenot, was also a settler of Santo Domingo and a source of ownership and/or heirship, apparently owing to her mother]
——Listed as heirs but not as settlers are Rose's brother, Charles Bernard Grenot, her sister, Marie Jeanne Sophie Grenot and her brother, Pierre Ambroise Isidore Grenot. Marie Louise (Demie) Lapice, wife of Pierre Michel Ambroise Lapice is listed as heir. Also listed are Ann Marie Grenot and Anne Grenot (unclear at the moment who they were).

836 Below is an excerpt from Part I, Chapter One, Genealogy of Jacob Miller and his Descendants (With Some Brief History Thereto), by Everett W. Miller, 1953. Note that local records were destroyed by fire, and existing records came from other sources, including records in Washington, D.C.
— Note that this work is a compilation of records, recollections and other previous works.


"According to Government records obtained by Sigfus Olafson, Jacob Miller was born in Germany in the year 1702 and came to America with his parents in 1715. They settled about 30 miles from the Port of Philadelphia, at a place known as Faulkner's Swamp. Here Jacob, the boy, lived to manhood and at the age of 23 married a German girl of the same name, who either came over with them, or at a later date; more probably at a later date, since she was from another part of Germany and spoke a different dialect. One spoke High German, being from the Highlands, while the other spoke Low German, being from the Lowlands.

"Philadelphia being the port to which most of the early emigrants came, the nearby territory soon became thickly populated. Consequently, they spread outward into the less settled parts of the surrounding country-Westward into the Pennsylvania Territory; South and Southwestward into the Virginia Territory.

"JACOB MILLER and family went south westward along the southern fringe of the Allegheny Mountains and found their way into the Shenandoah Valley, making their home in the fertile valley of (now) Rockingham County, near the present town of Harrisonburg, where he reared his family."

Begins "Grandfather Fletcher's father Archibald Fletcher married Flora McNab in Argyleshire, Scotland and their children from memory were Archibald, Alexander, Flora, Duncan, James, Ann and Elizabeth. The Fletchers, Campbells and MacNabs intermarried for centuries and the Fletchers wer thus allied to the Clans Campbell and MacNab."----(omitted here Fletcher name origin and meaning)---"Archibald Fletcher and his wife came from Scotland to new Jersey in 1769 in which year our grandfather (Alexander) was born." '
—The Ancestral Lines of Chester Everts Howell, by Jessie Howell Finch, 1796
A note was included by JHF: The Corwin family into which Alexander married came from N.J. but so far records of the Fletchers have not been found in that state (Alexander's marriage to Rachel Corwin).
Additional Note: The papers by John Wesley Fletcher called Sketch of the History of the Fletcher Family, was destroyed by water damage, and unfortunately thrown out rather than seeking restoration.

839 Birth information undocumented. McCauley, Col. William (I2143)
 
840 Calculated Name: Martha shows as the wife of John H. Songer in censuses 1850-1880. I've found no documents for who her parents were or when she was born. She and John do have daughters named Martha and Margaret. The death certificate of their daughter, Alice, gives her name as Margaret Dudley. Since John outlived her and remarried, this must be her maiden name unless she perchance married a Mr. Dudley prior to her marriage to John. For these reasons, her name is presented here as Martha Margaret Dudley; however, this may not be accurate. Dudley, Martha Margaret (I17666)
 
841 CAUTION! This Ann Doane without data may be an error, as a spouse of William Jr's father (William Twining, Sr.) was Ann Doane...and family linking is unclear in his father's relationships/unions as well. Family F5082
 
842 John Degan was formerly listed as a spouse of Sarah A. (Compton), but there is no solid evidence of that relationship and the link has been removed. Hodges, Sarah A. (I4540)
 
843 Note: Previously, Flora MacNab and Lt. Allan MacNab were incorrectly shown on this site as children of Robert & Jean Stewart MacNab. Family F26856
 
844 Several problems exist with Isaac as parent of Jonathan Pitman, even though the SAR & DAR accepted that information when submitted. Basically, there is no known original record reference supporting the connection between these two men. Compilations of collected tidbits of information, assembled to look official for the purpose intended (sometimes for a book), do not take some things into account, and make assumptions about relationships, sometimes even stating that they've done so...which is true of the DAR documentation. For instance, the DAR record states it is assuming certain people are Jonathan's sons, and yet his will does not include them and there are no records indicating these relationships (specifically Simon, Pierson, Daniel and David). These could be sons, but could as easily not be sons. Family F172
 
845 The entire lineage of descendants of Nicholas Workman/Woertman is intentionally unlinked/orphaned from the main family tree structure.

Many family trees list variations connecting John William Workman/Woertman to Nicholas through his son, Thomas. However, Nicholas's descendants migrated to America from England. John William's descendants migrated to America from Holland. Even though immigration from Holland and England were often together on the same ship, I have no evidence that John William was son of Thomas, son of Nicholas.

Further, the family of Agnes Hale was formerly linked to Thomas Workman/Woertman, son of Nicholas. I have no proof that this family was related to Thomas. However, Thomas's will probated in 1579 (per extensive research by Anderson [Workman Family History]), making it clear that many of these children could not be his by any spouse. Formerly, John William Workman/Woertman was included here as one of Agnes's children. I have unlinked him from this family as there is no proof of that union being from Thomas, son of Nicholas.

John William Workman/Woertman is not listed in the initial two sections of Anderson; however, he is given in the following sections as a key figure preceding the emigration of his descendants to America. These later sections are not a genealogy of descendants of Nicholas, but are descendants of John William himself...and no parents for John William are given in Anderson sections available. In that work and section, he is designated as 1H, a code used to identify the first of a family migrating from Holland to America. Nicholas and his descendants migrated from England.

Therefore 1)John William is unlinked from Nicholas's son, Thomas; 2)John William is now given as the oldest ancestor in our Workman lineage until his parents' information and documentation is found. Our lineage goes from Susannah Workman, wife of Capt. James Harvey Sperry back through time to John William Workman/Woertman. 
Workman, Nicholas (I13618)
 
846 These have not been documented as the parents of Martial Dupart. In the 1850 census in New Orleans, Martial is shown without his spouse, along with his son, Victor and a woman from Africa named Esthere Dupart. I've found no documentation about her beyond this census; however, she "might be" his mother. Family F76

849 This John Degan, his wife, Sarah, and their son, Alex, were formerly linked to Sarah A. (wife of Francis Compton)...as another spouse of Sarah A. This was an assumption. Thus this linking has been removed, and this family is intentionally left orphaned from the main tree...and is kept only for reference in case a connection that makes sense is found. It was a futile attempt to account for where Ora Ella Scaggs was during the 1880 census, when her siblings are with their grandmother, Sarah A. (Compton). Ella was about 14 at that time, and her whereabouts for that period are unknown. Degan, John Sr. (I4597)
 
850 THIS NASH FAMILY INTENTIONALLY ORPHANED FROM MAIN LINES & UNLINKED FROM AARON J. NASH, SR., as this Aaron is not him.

851 Various notes, censuses, estimated birth years, lists of children do not agree. Both Martha and Lenora are cited as the mother of Thomas Young Lee. Lenora as mother is supported by the 1880 census, if indeed this William H. Lee is the correct parent for Thomas. There are MANY notes and Bible records yet to be compared. Therefore posting of various census and information is halted temporarily, and changes may be forthcoming. Lee, William Henry (I6097)

853 William Berninger, Jr. & Katherine Ann Berninger of Mt. Carmel, their ancestors and any children are intentionally orphaned in this database. William was incorrectly linked to Ora Ella Scaggs Couch as her 2nd husband; when in fact, she was married to a different William (Edward) Berninger. This has been corrected and these people are left in the database for reference only. Perhaps they will be connected as relatives at some point, as they lived about 15 miles from William Edward Berninger in Lancaster. Family F27887
 
854 Disambiguation re marriage of Samuel Smith & Mahala Adkins:
   • A John Smith married a Mahala Adkins in 1847, approximately when one would have expected Samuel & Mahala to be married (if a few years late). Some have shown our Mahala as married to a John Smith or a Samuel John Smith; however, there is no evidence of this regarding our Mahala. The following image shows the 1847 marriage record for John & Mahala, about two years after Samuel & Mahala were already having children in her second marriage. This record shows that the Mahala who married John was single and not previously married when marrying John.

856 NOTE: In the 1850 census, the listing for Wm. Plumley is sometimes cited as having a middle initial "P" in his name. Closer examination of this alleged "P" reveals it is a stylized descender from the lower case "y" in the name Mary Nillis just above his name. This same effect is seen with his father, two lines below, where William's wife Mary's descender "y" looks like a "P" in the middle of the word "John". Even though these look very much like a "P", they are not the letter "P". Plumley, William Wiley Sr. (I5379)
 
857 There is a newspaper notice in the Belfast News Letter, November 26, 1771, in which an unnamed ship's voyage from Belfast to destinations in America gives a passenger list which includes a Matthew McCauley, reporting their safe arrival in (places listed as) Philadelphia, America, and Delaware Bay (incl. DE & NJ). This date agrees with traditional information about the emigration of Matthew McCauley from Ireland; however: It is not possible to be certain this notice refers to our subject, brother of William McCauley, both eventually of North Carolina. McCauley, Maj. Matthew (I2146)

859 Excerpt from "Workman Family History"
by Thelma Chidester Anderson, Publishers Press, Salt Lake City, Utah, 1962 p.29:

2. ISAAC WORKMAN, number 81H above, son of Peter Derick Woertman 16H (Dirck Jan 13H John William 1H) and born 1710 in Brooklyn, Kings, New York; married about 1733; with his wife, FEMMETJE (PHOEBE) RAGEL, witnessed the christening of Isaac, son of Lucas Covert and Harmptje (Hermitien) Woertman 41H. The couple moved from New York to Somerville, Somerset Co., New Jersey, where their children seem to have been born.

Just what Isaac's military service was during the Revolution has not been determined but when the military land in Maryland was apportioned he was granted title to fifty acres of land, military lot No. 3656, in Fort Cumberland, at the April session of the Assembly of 1784. Ten years later, on the 14 day of April 1794, Isaac transferred the title of this land to his son, Isaac Jr. Whether or not Isaac Sr. ever actually lived on the land in Maryland is questionable.

The children of Isaac and Femmetje, so far as known, were:

10. SARAH WORKMAN born about 1734; known to be in Maryland later; married NATHAN COMPTON.
11. JOSEPH WORKMAN born 1735 in Somerset Co., New Jersey; appears in the list of recruits raised by Capt. Paul Jackson for the Pennsylvania Regiment, 2 June 1758: "Joseph Workman, laborer, 5 feet 8 inches tall, Of Chester Co., Pa., enlisted 6 May 1756 aged 21, born in New Jersey; Of thin visage." (See Pennsylvania Archives) . He is also listed with the men who returned in Capt. Charles Stewart's Co., 5 June 1759, having enlisted this time 22 May 1759, age 24, from Pennsylvania. He participated in the Revolution, enlisted 28 Aug. 1776 and is believed to be the progenitor of the family that settled Boone Co., West Virginia, inasmuch as he did not receive military land in Maryland. (See later chapter.)
12. FANNIE WORKMAN chr 11 April 1736. May have died young.
13. STEPHEN WORKMAN born 1738 in New Jersey. Served in the Revolution.
14. JOHN WORKMAN born 1740; probably the John who served in the Revolution.
*15. ISAAC WORKMAN born 1742 in New Jersey; died 1827 in Danville, Knox, Ohio.
16. REBECCA WORKMAN, known to have lived in Maryland.,
17. NANCY WORKMAN, known to have lived in Maryland.

860 "The Doane Family" states Elisha Doane, son of Hezekiah Doane, Jr., was "probably lost at sea about 1784". It further states "His widow, Hannah [Green] Doane of Cambridge, was appointed to settle his small estate early in 1784", placing his death in late 1783 or early 1784. DOANE, Elisha (I2180)

865 Important Parent Information re Ignatz Biskup:
1880 immigration records show Michael, Josephine & Ignatz arrived in New York from Germany, with Josefine age 55 (born Est. 1825)...Michael age 60 (born Est. 1820), and Ignatz age 21 (born Est. 1859)...with a destination of St. Louis, United States.
1910 census in St. Louis shows the only Ignatz Biskup in St. Louis as born April 1859 living with his wife Caroline and 6 children (including Ida who later married George Schwartz), and his mother named Auguste Biskup from Germany, age 74 (born Est. 1836)...showing clearly that Josefine Biskup who Ignatz immigrated with was not his mother. It is also possible that Michael Biskup, also immigrating with Ignatz, was not his father. It may be that Ignatz was traveling with an uncle and aunt, or with his father Michael and a sister of his father named Josefine.

868 "Records in Augusta County, VA" - Vol. 1 - AUGUST, 1789 (A to G). - Andrew Donnolly, of Greenbrier, vs. Hugh Millar.--In October, 1785, the General Assembly appropriated funds to build a road from eastern to western waters and defendant became contractor and plaintiff was his partner. The road was from Greenbrier C. H. to the Kenoway. The people themselves divided the whole county into thirteen districts, and each district elected a parson to form a committee to superintend the business. The committee appointed Hugh Millar foreman to undertake on behalf of the people and went security in the bond for his performance and took bond of him with condition that equal justice might be done to all. The committee divided the road into thirteen parts, that each individual might work out the tax he was in arrears. At the dividing, Colonel Donnelly told the committee he owed the treasury £170 of taxes due for 1782 as sheriff, and that he thought himself included in the law. Committee refused to grant a certificate to Donnelly because he did not make it appear that he was in the law, etc. (a full account of the transactions). At a meeting of the committee of the inhabitants of the county of Greenbrier, held 30th September, 1786, Hugh Miller, William Renick, John Anderson, James Graham, William Morris, William Johnston, Alexander Welch, Thomas Wright, Samuel Williams, Joseph Claypool, John Hutcheson, Hugh Capertin, and Archibald Hauley; Resolved, (Colonel Donnally assigned a district from Capt.

870 7 Jun 1892

"[Homer] Plessy bought a first-class ticket on a train from New Orleans and sat in the car for white riders only. The [Citizens' Committee of New Orleans] had hired a private detective with arrest powers to take Plessy off the train at Press and Royal streets, to ensure that he was charged with violating the state's separate-car law and not some other misdemeanor."

Note: "The Committee...recruited Plessy to deliberately violate Louisiana's 1890 separate-car law. To pose a clear test, the Citizens' Committee gave notice of Plessy's intent to the railroad, which opposed the law because it required adding more cars to its trains."

On appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, the decision went against Plessy, resulting in "separate but equal" discrimination by states. This was at a time when Louisiana was being occupied by federal troops due to the American Civil War and Reconstruction; which had liberated blacks. Withdrawal of federal troops effectively reversed some of the freedoms granted.

The "Separate but Equal" ruling was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1954.

10 Feb 2009

The Plessy & Ferguson Foundation of New Orleans placed a historical marker at the corner of Press and Royal streets, where the arrest had taken place some 117 years earlier.

875 DISAMBIGUATION RE JAMES M. SKAGGS, father of Ora Ella Skaggs

James Miner Skaggs,
born about 1839, (also officially used the name Miner Skaggs) was mistakenly named as spouse of Elizabeth Compton with a name of James Minor Skaggs, and displayed as such on this site for a long time. This connection has been disproven.
--James Miner Skaggs enlisted with the Union for the Civil War 19 Aug 1861 and served in Company K, 25th Regiment, Indiana Infantry (note his gravestone...went in as a Private, and was a Private when he died. He died of measles in the line of duty on either 23 or 27 Oct 1861 (official war records give both dates). Documents accompanying the pension application verify his service and his death.
--He was originally buried in the Civil War Cemetery at Otterville, Missouri, and later reinterred at Jefferson City National Cemetery, in St. Louis, Missouri.
--His parents were Thomas T. Skaggs & Barbara Ellen Rose. I've found no record of his ever being married or having children.

James Monroe Skaggs (of Kentucky) has at times been suggested as Ella's father.
--He was (reportedly) the son of Thomas Davis Skaggs & Jamima Jane Williams and married Mary Agnes Morrison, having five children with her (not Ella or her known siblings).
--He was reported as buried at Rock Creek Church Cemetery, Rock Creek, Grayson County, Kentucky.

James M. Skaggs, born about 1839, listed in the 1870 U.S. Census of Rochester Mills, Coffee Precinct, Wabash County, Illinois, shows him with wife Elizabeth and four children: Polly, Ella, Lena and Thomas W.
--The record of his daughter, Lena's application for a pension for herself and siblings as his dependents (i.e.-Skaggs, Lena et al), lists his (Civil War) service with the Union as with Company B, 63rd Regiment, Illinois Infantry. He survived the war and lived until 1878, having children born to him by Elizabeth as late as 1874.
--The application for a headstone (applied for later on related to his military burial) verifies his service and shows he was buried in Rochester Cemetery, Keensburg, Illinois.
--The Illinois Statewide Marriage Index (Vol.197,pg.9) shows SKAGGS, JAMES M. married to COMPTON, ELIZABETH on 1861-10-31, Wabash County, Illinois, just days before James Miner Skaggs died during the war.
--The Illinois Statewide Death Index (Vol.1,pg.7,Cert.89) shows SKAGGS, JAMES M. as having died 1878-05-25 in Rochester, Wabash County at the age of 42 (indicating his birth approximation from census records may be off a few years).
 
Skaggs, James Miner (I4533)
 
876 Fact 1 - Jacob's death record gives his birth date as February 29, 1858.
Fact 2 - His birth year and age indicated in censuses is 1859.
Fact 3 - His birth record gives January 31 with no year indicated on the page.
People transcribing from the 17-page set of records identified as 1857 have understandably believed that this January date was in 1857. However, "1857" appears only on the first six pages of that set. At the bottom of page 6, the county clerk signs off on the "foregoing", dated 29 June 1858. This must indicate that the "following" pages would be 1858 or later. Jacob's January birth listed after the clerk signing off would be in 1859. Apparently, Jacob believed he was born in February; however, this may have come from a record of a baptism or christening.

880 October 12, 1882 Marriage Record of William H. Horton & Octavy (Egnor) Smith shows Octavia as 22 years old, setting her birth year at approximately 1860.
-- born 1856/1860 VA per Gould family records
-- born abt 1856 VA per 1870 census
-- born abt 1861 per 1880 census
-- born June 1856 per 1900 census (listed previously as 1862, but a clearer image shows 1856)

Because Octavia is not present in the 1860 Census with her parents, it is assumed she was born in 1860 just after the census was taken. This agrees with her age when married to her first husband, Floyd Smith, in 1882.

882 Remembrance by Doug Couch...
I was fortunate enough to be Pat's son-in-law. He and I did not talk often, but I remember him and the love he shared with me. A quiet man, he worked while I knew him as a building inspector. Many games of 2-deck Canasta were enjoyed with Pat and his wife, Bea, partnered against his daughter, Linda, and future son-in-law, myself. Sometimes these were played (interspersed with bowls of chocolate ice cream) after I'd hitchhiked from my parents' place in Riverside, courting his daughter, then hitchhiked home.

After Linda and I were married, he took me to my only real ball game by a pro team at the Angels Stadium in Anaheim. At least once, he took me to fish off the pier in Huntington Beach. We never caught anything, but I came to understand that I was treasured.

I loved him, although I'm not so sure I ever showed it as he showed to me. He was a good role model of a husband, father, father-in-law and grandfather to his granddaughter, Lisa, and I know his family miss him dearly to this day, even though I have not seen any of them for many years. I was in poor shape during that period of my life and did not treat Linda or Lisa well, and yet never a cross word came from him. I'm sorry, Pat, and hope your later son-in-law, Jim, filled their lives and yours with joy.

You're never forgotten. Perhaps a day will come when I will discover where you were buried and visit there. For now, let these few tears of loving remembrance suffice, remembering when I was able to come to your home and have you as part of my life.

Somewhat of an historical oddity, Ira J. is listed in History of the Board of Trade of the City of Chicago, Vol. III as Ira J. Couch and his parents as George B. and Caroline E. Couch...and his wife as Generva Laing. However, his father was George Bristol Johnson, and his mother Caroline Elizabeth Couch, making him a Johnson, not a Couch.

After (presumably) burial with the Couch family in Lincoln Park, and upon reinterrments in Rosehill Cemetery, the family monument includes the names of Ira Couch and Caroline E. Gregory Couch, Sr. (Caroline Jr.'s parents), along with daughter, Caroline E. Couch Johnson, Jr., her husband George Bristol Johnson, and their daughter-in-law, Generva Laing Couch.

Clearly, Generva did not become a Couch by birth, or by marriage to Ira J. Johnson, son of Caroline E. Couch Johnson and George B. Johnson. So the questions arise: How did Ira J. Johnson become Ira J. Couch, and his wife Generva become Generva Laing Couch, rather than Ira J. and Generva Laing Johnson?

Text of the History of Trade is given below in hopes someone might have clarification for this:

p.77-78-- "Ira J. Couch--A native son of Chicago and a representative of one of the prominent and influential families of this city, Ira Johnson Couch is a son of George B. and Caroline E. Couch, and a grandson of Ira Couch, whose name is closely and influentially linked with the annals of civic and material development and progress in Chicago. The Board of Trade claims Ira J. Couch as one of its appreciative and valued members, and he is one of the interested principals in the representative firm of S. B. Chapin & Co., one of the foremost in the stock-investment business in both Chicago and New York and one that has definite precedence and influence in connection with the operations of the Board of Trade of the City of Chicago and the Chicago Stock Exchange, with both of which important bodies Mr. Couch is actively identified, besides which he is to be designated as an able member of the bar of his native city, though he has not been actively engaged in the practice of his profession since 1900. Mr. Couch was born in Chicago on the 21st of June, 1871, and after making good use of the advantages aflforded in the public schools of the western metropolis he pursued a higher academic course in Beloit College, at Beloit, Wisconsin. In preparation for his chosen profession he then entered the Chicago College of Law, and in this institution he was graduted as a member of the class of 1896, with the degree of Bachelor of Laws, his admission to the Illinois bar having been a virtual concomitant of his reception of the degree noted. After his graduation Mr. Couch became associated with the representative law firm of Arnd & Arnd, with which he continued his alliance until 1900, when he retired from the practice of law and turned his attention to the stock and bond business, of which he has become a successful representative in Chicago, as has he also in connection with operations on the Board of Trade. At the initiation of his activities along these lines he was fortunate in identifying himself with the firm of S. B. Chapin & Co., and of the same he has been a member since 1906. Though he has manifested no ambition for political preferment, Mr. Couch as a public-spirited citizen takes a lively interest in all that touches the well-being of his native city. In the time-honored Masonic fraternity he has received the thirtysecond degree of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, and he holds membership in the Chicago Athletic Club, the Chicago Golf Club and the Glen View Golf Club. In 1902 was solemnized the marriage of Mr. Couch to Miss Genevra Laing, of Chicago, and they have three children?Ira Laing, Mary Elizabeth and Johnson."

And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.

I have fought long a good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith.

Henceforth, there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give at that day, and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

890 Additional notes re Howell book information: The compiler noted in the book, that dates obtained from documents seemed to contain errors. In example, the death certificate of Henry Howe Connor (with his son, Thomas Wesley Connor as informant) is cited giving his death as 12 Oct. 1906 and birth as 15 March 1820, and offers an age calculation of 89 yrs, 6 mo, 21 days. However, those two dates actually calculate to 86 years, 6 months, 23 days...at best leaving one in doubt.
From today, 17 Nov 2021, Henry's dates will reflect those given on his gravestone.

891 Information from Robert Samuel Cromartie, MD (1869-1965)
The following information was found in a book that was in the possession of Robert Samuel Cromartie III. The book included information saved by his grandfather on his family. Much of the information is from the obituary of Annie Cromartie Council.

Graduated from Agnes Scott College, Atlanta, George, and after completing her education, she came back to Bladen to teach in the public schools. In early womanhood she was wed to Alexander McAllister Council, thus uniting two of the county's most prominent pioneer.

The obituary read as follows: "She was formerly a member of the Battle of Elizabethtown Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution, releasing her membership when she was physically unable to attend the meetings.

Mrs. Council was a woman of the highest type of Christian character, and one of the best loved women in the county.
Keenly interested in every movement for the public good, she worked faithfully in the church and civic affairs.
A devoted wife and mother, a true and loyal friend, a consecrated Christian, she embodied the highest type of womanhood, and her memory will be long be blessed in the community in which she lived.

She is survived by three daughters: Mrs. George Sloan, Wilmington; Mrs. Evelyn Stuart, Rowland; Mrs. H. Milton Chason, Elizabethtown. By four sons: John C. Council, Winston-Salem; C. C. and G. S. Council of White Oak and M-Sgt. W. J. Council, Camp Lejeune. By one sister, Miss Bessie K. Cromartie, Jacksonville, Fla. By three brothers: Dr. R. S. Cromartie, Elizabethtown; A. Doane and Ben J Cromartie of Garland, RFD; by 22 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren.

Christian Advocate, September 20, 1956, p. 15
Mrs. Annie Mary Cromartie Council was born January 13, 1872, in Bladen County near Garland. She was married to Alex McAlister Council in 1897. She was called to her heavenly home March 29, 1956. Her funeral was conducted in Bethlehem Church at White Oak, and she was laid to rest in the family cemetery. Surviving are seven of her eight children, twenty-two grandchildren and eleven great grandchildren.

Mrs. Council was one who will never die to those who knew her. To the community she was a constant inspiration and challenge. To her close friends she was a wonderful source of joy. To her family she was a perfect channel of devotion and loyalty. To the church she was an example of all it stands for in the expression of a human soul. To all who knew her she was a conveyor of high and enduring qualities of true culture and religion.

Mrs Council will be remembered by her pastors as one whose love for and knowledge of her church is surpassed by none. Last March, when a divine hand reached out from heaven's doors, Mrs. Annie Council grasped that hand with an inner joy and dignity that becomes one who has achieved sainthood.
A former pastor who shares with those who love her most - Willis R. Stevens.
