Poole Ancestor List
CONTENTS
This is the family of my paternal grand-mother, Eleanor Isabella Poole,
born Chicago 16/12/1878, died 1967, married Nathaniel George Maitland.
Eleanor Poole was the daughter of Otis Augustus & Eleanor Isabella
(Armstrong) Poole, Otis from Beloit, Ill and Eleanor born in Ireland.
Her Poole line extends back to Pierce Poole, born about 1700-9, died Long
Island, 1775. His antecedents were not established by Bert Poole (see below),
although he produced some speculation.
His sons and grandsons married into several of the well known New England
families of Hicks, Weeks, Rushmores etc, whose genealogy is known much further
back than the Pooles. There were several Poole families in the area, but the
links have not been established.
This paper is a summary of the data contained in Herbert Poole's family
history, with later additions by A Maitland (1996 & on) from family,
internet and from LDS IGI & Ancestral Files. "Bert's Begats" as
his family history was know in the family contains a lot of first hand accounts
of his immediate ancestors and relations: he started writing his account at the
beginning of the 20thC when he was in Japan. He made a world tour in 1905 when
he visited the Irish Armstrong relatives and their Scottish relations. His
earlier New England ancestors were derived mainly from other printed studies
done by other Americans produced during the latter half of the 19thC.
The Irish Armstrongs are covered in a separate file, and includes the outline
of HAP's work and much extra data found since: Irish

AM04/02
The paternal grandmother of Antony Maitland, the author of
this document and sister of Herbert Armstrong Poole.
Arrived Bubbling Well Rd Nov 1898. Her friend Ethel Wilcockson married NGM's
brother, 1899. NGM appeared later, in about 1902.
Born 16/12/1878, Chicago, Ill (3731 Forest Avenue?).
Parents: Otis Augustus & Eleanor Isabella (Armstrong) Poole.
Married: Nathaniel George Maitland, Christ's Church, Yokohama, 14/9/1904.
Died: 1967, West Byfleet.
A contact that appeared (7/2008) via Bert Poole’s write up and subsequently
EIP’s photo albums, WH Lippincott[i]:
So grateful you are out there. Your album offering is wonderful, not least
because none of the very few pictures I have of my young grandmother show her
smiling. The smile in the picture you sent is the same as it was during her
later days when I had lots of contact with her.
Edward Rogers and his wife Ellis Rogers had two daughters, Cecile and Margaret.
Cecile was born in Japan but ended up in California, while Margaret married a
Brit named Jackson. The Jackson's had two adopted sons (Norman, British; and
Maurice, French) and lived in Manchester. I met both sons (long ago) but do not
know of their whereabouts today (actually, if I remember it correctly, the
brothers did not get along in their common business and Norman committed
suicide years ago).
Mr. Rogers died in Pasadena, CA September 30, 1929. This was quite bad timing
because his considerable estate from his Yokohama business affairs had to be
sold off at 10 cents on the dollar following the crash of October 29th. Ellis
died there sometime later; I was acquainted with her but born too late (1941)
to have met Mr. Rogers.
I am working on an account with photos of my mother's side of my family. This
includes attempting to resolve some unanswered questions on "where they
fetched up." So formal were my ancestors' references to each other that I
only knew my great grandfather as "Mr. Rogers" until quite recently.
Unfortunately there is no one left but me and my older brother to ask these days.
By the way, my brother confirms that Cecile often mentioned the name Poole from
the Yokohama days.Thank you for your kind reply. I will send you a few photos
that might be of interest to you as I get into the scanning phase of my
project.
Sent: Wednesday, July 16, 2008
To: WH Lippincott
Dear Mr Lippincott,
Thanks for your email. Cecile Rogers rang another bell for me in my files,
which are not on the website due to size constraints. I have 3 photo albums
belonging to my grandmother, OM Poole's sister. I always forget which of her
brothers was the photographer. Any way, I had a look at the list of the titles
of the prints and your grand mother appears.
Attached are 2 jpg's, one of the whole album page, the other of the print of
your grandmother at higher resolution. Where abouts have your family fetched
up? As you may have seen, mine ended up in England (or Wales to be precise in
my case).
Antony Maitland
WH Lippincott wrote:
While searching for information on my great grandfather Edward Rogers, I
stumbled across the autobiographical page of Otis M. Poole. I all but fell out
of my chair on seeing in the search abstract a reference to Mr. Poole
"visiting my friend Cecile Rogers who was studying piano in Leipzig."
Ms. Rogers was my grandmother and was born in Yokohama, apparently becoming
later a friend of OM Poole. I recall mention of the name Poole during my early
years and was told a number of times of my grandmother's time in Leipzig.
Edward Rogers was one of two British citizens managing the American firm
"China & Japan Trading Company" in Japan. Mr. Rogers spent much
if not all of his career there, ending in the employ of Standard Oil.
In any event, it was great serendipity finding Mr. Poole's account of life in
Japan, including the great earthquake and fire of 1923. It dovetails neatly
with what I had been told over the years.

Strictly Confidential
Beloit Feby 9th 1847
My very dear parents,
I presume that you are prepared for the subject of this letter by what has
already been written by a Mr Reynolds and Clarke and are perhaps surprise that
by a so long delay giving you my confident and asking your advice when I say
much need it. It is time at that I have given my heart's best affections to one
who four short months ago was an entire stranger to me.
When we first came here and intimacy sprang up between Clarke and Augustus
Poole, and they have ever since been like brothers. I studied his character
very closely at first, because I wished to know under what influence my brother
was placed, as far as I could judge I found him to be a person of good
principles, and one with a whom a sister would be willing and pleased to have a
brother associate. I have seen him at a great deal this winter. I received his
attentions for some time as I a compliment paid to my brother, but my heart has
long told me that he was more than a brother's friend to me, although I did not
know his intentions until week before last. He has since then spoken more
plainly to me and I have promised to be his wife provided - have my parents
approbation and consent to our union, for without that I should not be happy.
He asked at first for permission to speak on the subject to my father when he
came out in the spring. I gave it to him, and until then we shall firm? our
plans, nor come to any decision. I do not feel that I have acted rashly in this
affair. I think I know my own heart, and that I love him well enough to leave
all for him, and I place implicit confidence in the affection he has professed
for me. It is very pleasing to me, and I presume will be to you to know that my
friends Mr and Mrs Reynolds and Mr and Mrs Hughes are satisfied with the steps
I have taken, and I think that we are suited to make each other happy. He is
one who I think and hope you will be willing to her something as a son, and
grant a share of that love you have ever bestowed on me. He is pleasing in his
personal appearance, gentlemanly in his manner, and kind and affectionate in
his disposition. He is not wealthy, but has enough of this world's goods to
satisfy me.
Our engagement is suspected here, but not known by any but the family. Why
do our wish it to be until father comes out and his advice is given. And I
would rather my dear parents that it should be known by no one but yourselves
at home for the present, at least. How often mother, during the past week I
have wished that you were here to be my adviser, I feel of more than ever the
need for a mother's council. I do not feel that I love you my dear father and
mother any the less because I have learned to love another, nor that I shall be
loved the less by you because I ask you to bestow a share of your parental
affections upon that other. I shall expect to hear from you soon. Can you tell
me father, when you expect to be here? Feeding confident that we shall have
your blessing and your prayers I remain your affection daughter,
Maria
Beloit March 23 1847.
Dear Sir
Being an entire stranger to you, it is with some feeling of awkwardness
that I address you upon a subject deeply interesting to your daughter Maria and
myself and has, and no doubt will cause you no little anxiety.
You have had from her at an acknowledgement of our mutual protestations and
it is natural that you should want to know all about the man with whom she has
consented to unite her dealings. I shall be as frank to you concerning my
prospects as I have been to her.
That her circumstances will be bettered by the union I am not sanguine
enough to believe - for were I anywhere else than in the West I could not marry
- my circumstances would not permit. But for the time I have been in Beloit I
consider my business sufficiently encouraging to warrant me in saying that I
can support a wife - not in luxury, but comfortably as most men in Wisconsin
can where all new beginners and like myself poor. Had all men had good
prospects East, the West had never been settled, and I am emboldened by a the
example of many that have had to commence the world as I have done and obtained
competence and I am encouraged by the hope ?? by patience and ??. I shall have
like ?? that she may be happy, I shall never cease to strive.
Of my character and principles I can say nothing for in speaking of myself
little shall I grace might cause. Your approval is not to be obtained by my
professions myself substantiated by the opinions of others.
My father was a merchant and farmer in North Hempstead, Long Island where
my mother now resides, in humble circumstances but respected: whose aim was to
know what's right and practise what he knew. He died 14 years ago leaving his
children to commence the world as he had done - without anything. I left home
at 15, and went to Buffalo in a store with my brother (who is still there)
where I was resident eight years. If you have any acquaintances in that city, I
trust you will make inquiries, and I feel I assured my reputation will appear
unsullied. Since leave there I have spent near two years St Louis, Mo. and had
been established here since October 1845.
Such is a brief account of me who asked the best gift a father can bestow.
At first it was thought best, to defer any definite arrangements in
regards to the finale of our present wishes until I had had the pleasure of
meeting you face-to-face, as it was your intention to be here this spring. But
now our plan agreed upon is this - Maria will return to Utica with you and in
the fall I will come after her - provided the "stranger" shall be
approved and in the interim you will have learned more about him.
Respectfully, Augustus Poole.

George M. Clark half sister ancestor of Ann Flannagan, ref email Oct 2003.
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2003 22:23:47 -0500
George M Clark, ref number in your posted genealogy I 1727 and second
husband of Charlotte Rapelye was the half brother of my ancestor, Mary Fletcher
Lee. Both George and Mary were children of Eliza Chumard, though by different
fathers. I have been tracking the Clark/Churmard/Lee family for several months
and thus it was exciting to find him in the 1880 and 1900 census and now in
your list of genealogy on the internet!.
George M Clark seems to have had an interesting life. He was the second
child of four born to Jesse Clark and Eliza Chumard in Corning New York
(Steuben Co) August 1836 Jesse had lived in Carbondale PA in the late 1820's
and was a founder of the Carbondale (PA) Methodist Church, as was Eliza's first
husband (John Fletcher Lee) and John F Lee's parents (Vene and Polly Lee)
After John Fletcher Lee died near Carbondale, possibly over the border in Wayne
Co, PA,in 1830, the widowed Eliza married Jesse Clark, had one daughter, Adele
D Clark in 1833 in PA, and moved to Corning about 1835 where they were founding
members of the Corning Methodist Church. (Steuben Co NY) Jesse Clark was a
lumberman and businessman and in 1849 went to California for the gold rush, but
died along the route west of cholera.
George M Clark may have served in the Civil War; it is clear that his
brother, William H Clark did, but there are a several men named George Clark
from Corning, so I am not certain of this. He appears in his cousin's diary in
the late 1860's married to "Minerva" and living a few years in Trappe
(Talbot Co) MD beside his half sister, Mary Fletcher Lee and her enterprising
husband, Edwin Avery Jeffery. Edwin was in those years a fruit farmer and
inventor and had George Clark and MM Clark witness one of his patents for an
invention in the late 1860's in MD. In 1880, George and Minerva and son John J
Clark, b Jan 1866 are found in the Corning NY Census where George was working
as a travelling salesman.
In 1891 George's half sister Mary (Mary Fletcher Lee Jeffery)died in
Jersey City, and George is listed in her obituary as then living in Wausau WI.
In Jan 1913 his sister Adele (widow of Joseph F Moore of Corning) died and the
obituary lists George as living then in Scranton. I found him listed in Fed
Census of 1900, ED 99, Scranton. Jun 14, 1900, living on Mulberry St with his
(presumably second) wife of 0 years, Charlotte R, age 42; and with his son John
J age 34, an asst manager of the International Correspondence School, and
Charlotte's daughter, Mabel L Seaman, age 16.
I see that you have listed George's death date as 1914 and wonder if you
can tell me more about him or his son, or where he died. Would you know if he
was a member of the church founded by his father, Carbondale Methodist? Any
other information about him?
I bet this is way more than you would want to know about George M Clark,
but should you be aware of any of his descendents who would like to have the
information, I am glad to elaborate more. Also, I have a photo of him and first
wife Minerva taken in about the late 1860's..(and photos of his mother and two
sisters and several nieces and nephews.)
Sincerely, Ann Flanagan[iii]
Wed, 12 Nov 2003 15:05:46 -0500
Thanks for getting back to me with regards to what you know about George M
Clark. I can see that as a second husband with no children to connect him, he
is not closely related to your family.
George M Clark is not all that closely related to me either, but as I have a
nice photo of him with his first wife, Minerva, and a diary which mentions him,
I have enjoyed piecing some of his "story" together. He probably
served in the Civil War, was a salesman, and lived close to My ancestors for
many years. George's mother was Eliza Chumard, a Daughter of Samuel Chumard who
was an early settler of Wayne Co PA His Parents probably met at the early
founding of the Carbondale Methodist Church (not too far from Scranton in
Luzerne/ Lackawanna Co PA about 1828 where Eliza's first husband, John Fletcher
Lee, and eventually second husband (after John Lee died in 1830 ) met.
Eliza Chumard was my gr gr gr grandmother and I have a photo of her and a
small hat and now a lot of information about her life in Wayne Co PA,
Carbondale, and Corning NY. Her eldest child, Mary Fletcher Lee, married Edwin
Avery Jeffery, an inventor and their youngest child, (my gr grandmother)Anne
Wilkinson Jeffery, was the person for whom I was married. (that would make
Mary Fletcher Lee and George M Clark half brother and sister)
Someday I plan to search more of the Carbondale and Scranton records for
information about various relatives who settled there. If I turn up anything
about this family I will let you know.

Carrie Smith: All I have been able to figure out (using censuses and marriage
report) are that he was born in Ireland, married Susannah in 1828, lived in
Hempstead and Buffalo. I think he died in the 1860s because I find him on the
1860 census in Buffalo, NY, but on the 1870 census Susannah is living with her
brother William.

1/5. William Poole Cheesman, b 30/1/1805, d bef 22/10/1880
Obit:
Another old and highly-respected citizen, Mr Wm. Cheesman, has passed away, his
death having occurred yesterday at his residence No. 48 Court Street. He was a
resident of Buffalo for over half a century. William Cheesman was born in North
Hempstead, Queens County, L.I., in January 1805, his parents being farmers. His
first occupation in settled business was in the crockery store of his elder
brother, in the firm of Weeks and Cheesman, Water Street, New York. At the age
of 21 (in 1826), before the opening of the Erie Canal, which he witnessed, he
came to this place, then a village, to reside, and took a position in the
branch store of Weeks and Cheesman, on Main Street, afterwards the firm of
Poole and Cheesman, where he remained in successful business life, until the
general breakdown of 1837. That disaster swept form him his all, as it did in
the case of so many others.
His next start in business was the carrying on of a small livery stable, in
1842, on Main Street, opposite the old American Hotel, and many of our older
citizens will remember William Cheesman as the genial companion who boarded with
them in that, then finest hotel in the Western regions.
In 1844 her removed to the larger stable on Pearl Street, built by Edward
Stevenson, and in it he remained. After 1850, the firm became Cheesman and
Dodge, Mr. Dodge being his nephew. In 1868 Mr. C. old out and retired from
active business.
And now, after 54 years' residence, having come to Buffalo when its business
was small, its stores and residences few and scattered, its streets knee deep
in mud, and a large portion of those who walked them were Indians; after having
lived aong the people until the Indians disappeared, the stores and residences
dozens of times quadrupled - as are its people and wealth - and spread over a
large territory; its streets lengthened and paved to an aggregate approximating
to a hundred miles, with broad avenues, boulevards and spacious parks; while
the most of his associate pioneers have gone to honoured graves, he also takes
his place among them in our beautiful suburban "city of the dead".
Mr. Cheesman was a most genial gentleman; possessed of great kindness of heart,
strict honesty, and integrity of purpose, it was no wonder that he endeared
himself to all who knew him. He never married, but leaves four nephews:
Rushmore Poole, his old associate in business, Hampton Dodge, and Cheesman
Dodge, and Joseph Armstrong; also a sister, Mrs Luson Armstrong, and her
family, of whom Joseph is one, in this city.
The funeral is to take place from No. 48 Court Street, tomorrow (Sunday)
afternoon at 2.30 o'clock.

AM/09/33 HP32
Born: 14/7/1728
Parents: Pierce & Mary (Lawrence?) Poole
Died: 4/5/1804
HP makes no direct statement of the marriage of JP (son of and father of the
Pierce's).
The second extract quoted on HP40 talks of Hannah as the daughter of John
Rushmore, and John is quoted as the son of Thomas on HP54, and is given as our
direct ancestor. It is notable that in this extract, Hannah surname is still
Rushmore in 1775, but that Pierce and Elizabeth are already married.
The IGI (NY) on P39,034 (1992) shows a marriage between James Poole and a
Mary Langdon on 4/12/1748. This also looks a likely candidate for our ancestor,
maybe a first marriage of JP.
John Rushmore must have been born before 1683 (father's death): a Hannah R
is shown in IGI to be born in 1716: this is a plausible date for our Hannah. It
would be expected that JP would be born about the same time.
The IGI NY shows James P marrying Mary Langdon (P39,034 1992) in 1740 in
Nassau, Hempstead. This is also a possiblilty for our ancestor.
HP and the IGI both quote a marriage for a Pierce P to Sarah Pierce in
1740 in Nassau.
If Pierce (2) was married about 1772, he cannot have been born later than
1752, and his father not later than 1732 who cannot therefore have been the
product of the marriage of Pierce (1) and Sarah in 1740. Solomon P, who married
Laetitia Jackson in 1766, could easily have been the product of this, a second
marriage. Solomon's children all appear to be younger than the other branches
of the same generation.
The best guess is that JP was born of a first marriage of Pierce P and an
unknown, and that Solomon was the product of a second marriage to Sarah Pierce.
JP probably then produced Pierce (2), by Hannah Rushmore, either in or out of
wedlock.

AM/10/65 HP64
Born: abt 1705
Parents: William Poole
Died: 1775, Hempstead, LI.
From HP064:
Pierce Poole, according to our family bibles, was born about 1709, (probably
as early as 1700), and died at Hempstead, L.I., in 1775, place of birth not
known. The name Pierce is spelled in various documents as Pearce, Pearse,
Pierssey, Percy, Pearcy, and Pars: our family bible spelled it Pearce, but
Pierce seems to be the most common spelling. Our family records state he was an
Englishman by birth, the father of James Poole: that he lived in Jerusalem,
L.I., and that he bought the old Poole place at North Side, L.I., where he and
his son James lived their whole lives.
I can find no actual record of the names of his parents, but from the
records of Brookhaven, L.I., its proximity to Hempstead, and the name William,
the third son of Pierce Poole, it is probable that Pierce was the son of
William Poole of Brookhaven. See what I have written under Subject 128.
Hempstead Town Records prove that Pierce Poole lived there from 1721-2 to 1769
as follows:- Vol 3, p 164 states that "Pierssey Poole, his earmark is a happeny
aforesaid each ear, and a nick in each hapenny, entered this 12th day of
October 1736, by me, Micah Clark". In the will of Samuel Thurston of
Jamaica, L.I., dated January 25/1721-2, Percy Pool signed as a witness. On
November 5/1769, Percy and his sons James and Solomon, signed a road petition.

Patricia Finn Morris Information, 22/12/2001:
… from a family bible owned Louis Millicent Poole. The bible originally
belonged to Solomon and Deborah (Corsa) Poole. We also own oil portraits of
Solomon and Deborah (or "Sol and Debbie") painted c. 1855. Deborah
Corsa's father, Andrew Corsa, was a hero of the American Revolution, having
served Generals Washington and Lafayette as the youngest of the
"Westchester (county) Scouts". One source relates an anecdote
describing him running away from distant British gunfire, only to ride back shamefacedly
to his companions who knew there was no immediate danger.

Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2003 09:40:59 -0500
If this inquiry is a bother, please just delete. Your site peeked my
interest because of the Borden line from Headcorn. We are descended from that
line as are many millions of other Americans. It's well documented however I
have had this nagging impression for years that the Borden of Headcorn and the
Boorman of Headcorn are actually the same family.
I suspect that the surname of Borden was a result of Quakerism. I can't
prove this of course as I am not privy to the church records if any exist. I
have searched for earlier wills from Headcorn but to no avail.
I find it interesting that you quote from Herbert Armstrong Poole, as the
Poole family of Kent is connected to the Boorman family by marriage. In
particular a rogue named Anthony Poole who literally threw his first wife and
children out on the street. I would love to find that man in a genealogy file
just to satisfy myself that he died a horrid death. He would have died in the
early 17th century.
Any connection you can lead me to as a connection between the Borden family
and the Boorman family would be appreciated.
Yours, Patty Sullivan

HAP:
Werner says Thomas Rushmore married, (about 1693-1695), Sarah ---, date of
birth unknown, said to have died about 1723, probably earlier. Thomas and
Sarah's names were bracketed in the Hempstead Census of 1698. Some genealogies
say that Thomas' wife Sarah, was the daughter of Thomas and his second wife
Mary (Doughty) Hicks, who were married in 1676, see subject 266, but neither Thomas
Hicks' will of 1728, nor the Hicks Genealogy by Benjamin D. Hicks, mention any
daughter Sarah. It might be possible that Thomas Hicks' will of 1728 failed to
mention her, if she died before he made his will. However I carry on the Hicks

Caleb4-caleb3:
In the name of God, Amen. I, CALEB CARMAN, of Hempstead in Queens County, being
of perfect mind. I leave to my wife Margaret, one negro wench, and the use of
1/2 my lands and estate for life, and 1/2 my moveable estate. I leave to my son
Caleb, one cow and calf, and 1/4 of my undivided lands and rights on the Great
Plains. I leave to my son John 1/4 of the same, and to my son Silas also 1/4. I
leave to my daughters Hannah and Margaret each 1/8 of my movable estate, except
as above. I leave to my son Joseph my dwelling house, and all my land and
meadow in Hempstead, and he is to pay all my debts. I leave to my daughters
Phebe and Mary, 1/8 of my movable estate. I make my wife and my son John
executors. January 3, 1744/5. Witnesses, John Rushmore, Charles Peters. Proved,
April 1, 1746 - Abstracts of Wills Vol IV 1744-1753, page 529, The New York
Historical Society, 1895.
Caleb is listed in the Company of Captain John Carpenter's Militia, at Jamaica,
New York in 1715. He recorded his stock mark in 1707 which was a swallow fork
in the right ear and a halfpenny the foreside of the left ear (HTR 2:238). He
received in his father's will "...I leave to my son Calop, the land which
he now lives on, lying by the Plain Edge, near the Great meadow. And the meadow
lying at the East meadow." This was a parcel of about 50 acres according
to town records.
Caleb4 Carman (Caleb3, John2, John1) was born 1684 in Hempstead, Queens, New
York and died in March 1745/46. Caleb was married twice. First to a woman
named Ann who was born about 1679 and died about 1713. He married second,
Margaret Valentine, daughter of William and Abigail Valentine.

MarAnn5, Caleb4:
Mary Ann5 Carman (Caleb4, Caleb3, John2, John1) was born in 1720 in Hempstead,
Queens County, New York; Baptized 10 October 1756 at St George's Church,
Hempstead, Queens County, New York; died 24 October 1821 in Kings County, New
Brunswick; and is buried in Bayview Cemetery, Spragg's Point, New Brunswick.
She married 31 October 1752 at St George's Church, Hempstead, Queens County,
New York to Thomas Spragg, born 23 February 1729/30; Christened 23 February
1729/30 (no sense in wasting time) at St George's Church, Hempstead, Queens
County, New York; died 22 February 1812 at Springfield, Kings County, New
Brunswick; and is buried with his wife in Bayview Cemetery, Spragg's Point, New
Brunswick; son of Edward and Margret (Gritman) Spragg.
When the American Revolution started, Thomas Spragg refused to sign the
association papers to support the revolution. He was taken into custody, and
later escaped. He was forced to leave his family to the hardships of the war.
His farm was taken over by the revolutionaries, by a Lt. Codwis. The farm (186
1/2 acres) was later sold in a forfeitures sale ( Mar 27 1782) and the mother
and children put off the farm. The same Lt. Codwis was the purchaser of the
farm. Thomas Spragg with twenty-eight other men left for New York City. With
these men, (that he had engaged in Dutchess Co to serve under him), he became a
part of the "Rogers Corp" of the British army. Because he was a
farmer, he was not given a commission by the British and he fought as a private
in the war. He and these men fought as part of the successful assault on Fort
Montgomery on the Hudson River. Thomas Spragg received a "ball" in
his arm, which remained for as long as he lived. One of his sons was sent
nearly fifty times by the British officers, into the country- side for
intelligence (this would have been son Richard). At the close of the war, in
1783, all Tories had to leave the new United States. Thomas Spragg was made a
captain of a company of Torie Loyalist. With his and the families of the other
Tories, they moved to St. John river area, of Kings Co, New Brunswick, Canada.
As a result of their adherence to the Royal cause in the American Revolution,
they asked the British for aid and relief for their loses in the revolution.
Thomas Spragg received a grant of land of about 2000 acres on the
"Belleisle Bay" on the St. John River, in Kings Co. New Brunswick,
Canada. This area was called Spragg's Grant or Spragg's Pt. It was later
changed to Hatfield's Pt - "ROYAL RAIDERS OF THE TORIES OF THE AMERICAN
REVOLUTION"
Children of Thomas and Mary Ann (Carman) Spragg:
Thomas Spragg - Christened 10 February 1756 at St George's Church, Hempstead,
Queens, New York, died as an infant.

Death: 2 SEP 1744 in Waterford Twp, Gloucester Co, NJ
Richard Cheesman was a cooper (barrel and cask maker) by trade; later, a
landowner, became a miller and yeoman. He witnessed a deed at Hempstead on
March 11, 1706, signing with his special mark.
Richard appears to be the same as Richard Chrisman, member of Colonel Thomas
Farmer's NY Militia Regiment, in service in New Jersey in 1715; and evidently
settled in Monmouth County, NJ in connection with the settlement there of his
wife's sister and brother-in-law, Mary (Stringham) Hegeman and Adrian Hegeman.
On March 26, 1720, " Richard Cheesman of Monmouth County, in ye Eastern
division of ye Province afores Cooper" purchased for 145 pounds from
William Thorne of the County of Gloucester, yeoman, plantation where Thorne
dwelt in Gloucester on both sides of the Southerly Branch of Timber Creek,
" Called or known by ye name of 'Christianity'" 484 acres; witnessed
by John Kay, Josiah Kay, Ambros Copland, Richard Bull . This deed cites
neighbors as Thomas Thorne, George Matlack, Joseph Cooper, Thomas How, John
Walker, Isaac Sharp and Abraham Porter. This represents the first recorded
appearance of the Cheesman Family in Southern New Jersey.
On September 26, Richard Cheesman purchased 93 acres, in Gloucester County and
Township, from Lancelot Brown for 73 pounds, " butted and bounded" by
lands of William Royden, Richard Chew, and John Roe, all early Upton settlers.
In the commendable custom of that day, the deed cites previous titles: "Same
tract purchased by Lancelot Brown and Charity his wife, of John Brown, which
said land was purchased by Chrity Wainright before her marriage with John
Brown, among other lands, of Ralph Sutton, November 15, 1720."
May 28, 1728, Richard Cheesman was fellow bondsman with Ephraim Cheesman, the
latter administrator of the estate of his deceased brother, William; the widow
Cicely, having renounced her privilege as administratrix; Richard's identity
know by his characteristic mark made to his name, a large crude R.
The will of Richard Cheesman, dated March 19, 1743, probated on September 7,
1744, indicates he was a rich man for those times. His will mentions his wife,
Hannah and four sons, but as was the custom in those times, daughters were
usually excluded. Hannah his wife, he gave 20 pounds per year during her life
time, to be paid by the sons; and to live with son Thomas. Thomas Cheesman: to
have land on south side of Cooper's Creek, in Gloucester Township, except a
piece of meadow for Peter his brother. Richard Cheesman to have land on which
he now lives, on the fork of Timber Creek, Gloucester Township. William
Cheesman to have land on the north side of Cooper's Creek, Waterford Township.
Peter Cheesman to have land where the sawmill and wharf stands, and all other
lands in Gloucester County. Benjamin Cheesman was devised no land by his
father's will but was named executor along with brothers Thomas and Peter. The
will was witnessed by Andrew Ware, David Richman and Robert Hubs.

Dear Cheesman researchers,
Just wanted you to know that there is no way that the Thomas Cheesman baptised
at Kingston-Upon-Thames in 1652 could be the one who was born in 1640 and
settled in Hempstead, LI. Please pass this on to anyone who is using that
information in their ancestry and make the corrections on the web that you have
entered.
The origin of that "speculation" was Francis James Dallett's article
in The American Genealogist Vol. 48 (Jan 1972), No.l 1, p. 31-2, entitled,
"The Valentine and Cheesman Families of Hempstead: A Theory as to their
Origins." That is what it was, a theory that was suggested. At the time
records of England's parishes were not that readily available to those in the
states. Now that they are more readily available, it is very easy to DISPROVE
the theory.
Family History Library

Bk 7 beginning in 1636
18 July 1639 Efraime Cheesman married Ann Rason

3 Feb 1648 Ann, daughter of Efram Cheesman baptized
1 Feb 1651/2 Thomas, son of Efraim Cheesman baptized
30 May 1652 (repeated 30 June 1652) Ann, daughter of Efraim baptized
Book 8 1653
21 Jan 1657/8 Efraim Cheesman, cordwainer, buried [the father]
11 Apr 1664 Henry Robinson married Ann Cheesman [the widow, and mother]
Book 9
26 Apr 1671 Mary Cheesman, daughter of Ephraim Cheesman baptized
4 Feb 1673/4 Ann Cheesman, daughter of Ephraim Cheesman baptized
11 Aug 1676 Ephraim Cheesman, butcher, buried [the son]
>From these we can see that there was no Thomas Cheesman born to Ephraim and
Ann in 1640. They clearly baptized all of their children as infants and there
are no space for another Thomas to have been born in 1640. Their actual son
Thomas appears clearly to have been born in 1657 and baptized at that time.
Then, the father died in 1657 and the widow remarried in 1664. Son Ephraim
grew up in town, had children there an then died. This clearly cannot account
for a Thomas Cheesman who settled in Hempstead.
Additionally, there are two other Cheesman families in Kingston-upon-Thames
during this time period -- Joseph and Nicholas -- no other Thomas Cheesmans and
none of the family names in that town equate to any families in Hempstead in
the early settlement group.
For the record, also, Thomas Cheesman's wife was Mary Valentine. Her father,
Richard Valentine's unrecorded will located at the Long Island Historical
Society [now called the Brooklyn Historical Society and closed until 2003]
calls her the wife of Thomas Cheesman. This is documented The New York
Genealogical and Biographical Record Vol. 108, Number 4 (October 1977), p. 107
-- submitted by K.T. Travo -- however, I would like to see the will myself and
plan to do that when their collections reopen next year.
Hope this helps you. I plan on publishing this in the Record as soon as is
possible, but would appreciate your help in passing the word.
Also, I have been able to straighten out the children of Thomas and Mary
(Valentine) Cheesman and their grandchildren, including the several Benjamin
Cheesmans.

Family information (him and his children) mostly from "Cheesman Family
Heritage Volume I" by David Cheesman
During the reign of King Henry VI [1422-1461], Robert Chesman of Lewisham and
East Greenwich owned vast amount of acreage and estates in Nottingham. These
properties stayed in the Chesman family for generations passing from heir to
heir. Robert Cheesman married Jeane Cavell, the daughter of Bernard Cavell,
Esquire. The couple's wealth was tremendously enlarged when they combined their
huge estates and holdings. They were finally passed to the Stoddard family by
marriage. Alice Cheesman, daughter of Thomas Cheesman, married Robert Stoddard.
Their son, George Stoddard, began the construction of Nottingham Place in 1560.
Edward Cheesman [Cheseman] was a nobleman and a principal officer of the royal
household, serving as cofferer to Henry VII from 1485 to 1509 and served as the
Lord of the Manors of Norwood and East Greenwich. He was given sable and ermine
to add to his coat of arms in the year 1510 by the king for his loyalty and
service. Edward died the same year (1510) and his son, Robert Cheseman was made
Lord of Norwood Manor by heir.
Robert married Lady Dacre and had issue. Their eldest son, John Cheesman carried
on the Cheseman/Cheesman fortunes. Robert died in 1547 at Norwood Manor and a
monument erected at Norwood Chapel remain to this day.
John Cheesman became Lord of the Manors at Norwood, Lewisham and Greenwich on
the death of his father, Robert Cheseman/ Cheesman. Between 1553 and 1558, John
Cheesman expanded his estates astly. He purchased the Manor of Easterly from
the crown. He died in 1577 and his son, Robert Cheesman, named after his
grandfather of Norwood, inherited the estates.
Robert died in 1610, passing the estates onto his son, Robert "the
younger" married Eleanor Amine, the daughter of Thomas Amine. Robert and Eleanor
Cheesman had two sons, Robert and John.
John Cheesman married Elizabeth De Laval of Northumberland and had a son whom
they named Robert Peter Cheesman. John died in 1699 and passed his estates to
his sons.
Robert Peter Cheesman married Eleanor Smithson of York and had a son whom they
named John Cheesmant to honor the child's late grandfather, except the letter
"t" was added to the Cheesman surname.
John Cheesmant, Esquire, high sheriff of Davanner Park in 1811, and of Penybont
Hall in County Radnor, Wales, was a prominent barrister at law of the most
Honorable Order of the Bath, and served in Parliament. He was the son of Capt.
John and Sarah Grace Chessment. John Chessment married Mary Price, wealthy
daughter of John Price of Davanner Park. To impress his wife, John Chessment
proved his direct lineage to Sir Edward Cheseman (died 1510), and applied for
and was granted an additional surname of Severn. Having proven his direct
paternal ancestral lineage to Sir Edward Chesman, cofferer to King Henry VII,
John Cheesment was granted the ancient Cheesman escutcheon of Kent and
Middlesex Counties by royal license. His escutcheon was essentially the same as
the Cheesman coat of arms except for slight modifications, namely lancer spear
heads were added and illustrated as piercing each of the mullets. Also the
three mullets were modified to appear scalloped. The ancient crest, featuring a
dexter hand holding the royal crown was replaced with a white horse pierced in
the breast by an arrow. The Cheesman escutcheon colors of Black, white and silver
remain and the family motto "Virtes Secura Sequetor" were not changed..
BLOODY ENGLISH CIVIL WAR DIVIDES FAMILY
England's bloody Civil War divided families and neighbors during the period
from 1649 to 1660. Many Cheesman males were long under a cloud of suspicion of
being loyal to Charles I and Charles II. This suspicion was caused because so
many Cheesmans had served in the royal households, the court and other high posts
for generations. During this period some of the Cheesmans fled to Scotland,
Ireland, France, Holland and to British and Dutch Colonies in the New World.
Those openly loyal to the king fled England for the sake of their families and
fear of the executioner's axe ... a fate King Charles I met on the 30th of
January 1649.
Some of the Cheesmans that fled England returned when Charles II was restored
to the throne. Some chose to remain in America, Canada, Ireland, and throughout
Europe.
It was probably during these troubled times in the 1650's through 1660's that
under cover of darkness Thomas Cheesman (1640-1713), among others, came to
settle in that region of the New World called New Netherlands, now known as New
York.

HAP summary:
Thomas Rushmore was born in Wales, England, in 1609, and died at Hempstead,
L.I., in 1682-3. He came to Hempstead in 1648, and was a blacksmith.
Thomas Rushmore married, 1st, Martha ---, said to have been a Hicks, but I
cannot find the name of her parents, nor birth and death dates: she may have
been a sister of John "Rock" Smith.
Thomas Rushmore married, 2nd, Martha Smith, who died before 1695, daughter of
John, "Rock" and Horod (Long) Smith, see subject 280, whose will
proves this marriage, and also that after Thomas' death, Martha married, 2nd,
Francis Chappelle, and bore him two sons, William and Stephen Chappelle.
Francis was town clerk at Hempstead.

Note:
Regarding the children of Thomas Hicks...
" Different sources estimate different birth dates for the children and
assign them in some cases to different mothers in different birth orders.
However an original document has been located which clarifies this issue. On
February 10, 1712/13 Thomas executed an instrument for the CT Probate District
of Fairfield, Estate of Mary Hicks of Cornberry Neck, NY, relinquishing all
claims to the Stratford, CT property which his first wife, Mary (Butler)
Washburn Hicks, had inherited from her father, Richard Butler of Stratford, in
favor of her children. The instrument specifically names "ye legatys as
follows: John Washburn, grandchild of the deceased; Thomas Hicks, John Hicks,
Jacob Hicks, sons of the deceased; and Phebe Hicks, Mary Hicks, Sarah Hicks,
and Elizabeth Hicks, daughters of the deceased." (Fairfield Probate
District, File #2868) The division of property among the heirs is subsequently
listed and confirmed in the Land Records of Stratford, Vol 2, p 111, as per the
order of the Probate Court. (Microfilms of these original documents are
available at the Ct State Library in Hartford, CT) That leaves Issac, Benjamin,
William, Charles, Charity, Stephen, and a second Mary as children of his second
wife, Mary Doughty."

Caleb3-john2:
In the "Calendar of Land Records of New York" we find an entry as
follows: "1684 June 25, Caleb and John Carman and others of Jamaica, on
Long Island," petition for "a patent of a certain tract of land lying
within the Jurisdiction of the Town of Flushing, Long Island," etc., etc.
The Caleb and John of this petition are traced as sons of John(2)(John(1) and
therefore of the third generation. Both were born in Hempstead - John(3) about
1656, and Caleb(3) about 1658. - American Families of Historical Lineage, Long
Island Edition, National Americana Society, NY, undated.
"Caleb was a farmer (HTR 5:326). He was a freeholder of Hempstead in 1683
(DHNY 2:523 ff) and prob. before. In 1684 he received a home lot from the town
situated near those of brother Benjamin-3 Carman, Samuel Pine, Ephriam
Valentine and Obediah Valentine (HTR 1:427) doubtless the same place at which
he dwelt in 1698 (REC 45:54 ff). Between 1723 and 1729 his home is located in
the "South Woods" (HTR 8:384). In his will he states that his home
was north of Samuel Embree's and he had a neighbor of that name in 1698 (HTR
45:54 ff). Indubitably he occupied the same spot from 1684 until his death and
it was situated south of the "town spot" and prob. north of Hicks
Neck. In 1685 he was the owner of 180 acres in Hempstead (HTR 8:130 ff). -

His Son John-2", Collection of the Library of the New York Genealogy and
Biographical Society, New York City.
"In the name of God, amen. September 9, 1720. I Calop (Caleb) Carman Sr.
of Hempstead, Queens County on Nassau Island, yeoman, being sick and weak. I
leave to my wife all my movable estate during her widowhood, but if she
remarries again, then to my daughters. I leave to my son Calop, the land which
he now lives on, lying by the Plain Edge, near the Great Meadow. And the meadow
lying at the East Meadow. I leave to my son Benjamin, my house and my home lot
in Hempstead; bounded north by my brother John's land, east by highway, north
by Samuel Hinery (or Ginery), and west by highway. I leave to my son Samuel,
all my lot at a place called Hicks Neck, in Hempstead. I leave to my two
youngest sons Samuel and Benjamin, all my meadow at Coe Neck, and all my meadow
at Hicks Neck I leave to my three sons, all my rights of land, divided or
undivided, not herein given. I make my son Calop, and Adam Mott, Jr.,
executors. Witnesses, Samuel Embree, Benjamin Valentine, Abraham Bedell.

is the true name]" - Abstracts of New York Wills, New York Historical
Society, unrecorded wills, p.148.
Caleb3 Carman (John2, John1) was born in 1655 at Hempstead, Long Island and
died there about 1729. He married Hannah Seaman (yes another one!, named in her
father's will) about 1681, born about 1663 and died after her husband, daughter
of John Seaman, Jr. and Hannah Williams.

blends in with the other Samuels of the time and it is not known to me which

Re Rose Wright, dau of Mary Townsend, dau of Henry, son of Henry bro of John.
Email 19/6/2005 from Sharilyn Whittaker[xii]
I have been studying this material on the marriages of Rose Wright and the marriages
of her issue, and am puzzled by how Wright Coles, son of Rose Wright and
Nathanial Coles, could have marred a half-sister, Sarah Birdsall, daughter of
Rose Wright and Samuel Birdsall.
You may not be aware that this is how you are showing things in your data.
While I have not studied these families at any length, it seems virtually
certain to me that such a marriage would not have taken place.

In this file, Sarah Birdsall is quoted as the daughter of Samuel and Sarah
(Wright) Birdsall. (P4 in the original).
2. www.antonymaitland.com/hptext/hp0600.txt
In this file she is quoted as the daughter of Samuel and Rose (Wright)
Birdsall.
I suspect that Bert also got confused when taking notes or something or that
his original sources gave different information: I note that at the top of the
files, the sources are different.
The logic is that Samuel married Sarah, another daughter of John Wright and
Mary Townsend. If you have anything to support that idea, I would like to know
and correct the files.

http://www.carman.net/john_hicks.htm
John Hicks was born in 1607 in London, England, died in May of 1672 in
Hempstead Township, Queens County, New York. Immigrated to America in 1635,
lived at Weymouth, Mass. and Newport, R.I. before coming to Hempstead in 1642.
He served as Adjuster of Indian land claims in 1647. Delegate from Long Island
in 1663 to a Council whose aim was to secure aid from the General Court at
Hartford against the Dutch. Delegate from Hempstead in 1665 to a Council called
by Governor Nicholls to make alterations to existing laws. Representative from
Flushing in 1653 to the Coucil called by Gov. Stuyvesant. Justice of the Peace
1666. Grantee of Patents of land in Hempstead March 6, 1666. Among the the
first patentees for Flushing granted by Gov. Keith to English Immigrants.
He married three times, first to Heriodias Long before 1636 in England. This
ended in divorce:
1655, June 1. Divorce granted to JOHN HICKS of Flushing, L. I. from his wife,
HARDWOOD LONG, with right to Hicks to remarry. - "First Settlers of Ye
Plantations of Piscataway and Woodsridge Olde East New Jersey" part 5,
page 778 (from the "Calendar of Historical Manuscripts in the office of
the Secretary of State, Albany, N. Y., edited by E. B. O'Callaghan, 1865."
Dutch Manuscripts, 1630-1664)
"Married, second, Florence Carman, widow of John1 Carman, who, at her
death, was sued by John2, Caleb, and Benjamin Coe in behalf of brother Joshua
to get the estate of their father back, which Hicks appears to have gotten
through the marriage of him to the widow Carman. This land is assumed to be the
area known briefly as Fordham's necke, later to be Hicke's necke (because John
Hicks now owned the property of John Carman), and later to become Baldwin
Harbor. John Hicks appears to have lost most of the property in the suit.
Because of this law suit John Hicks has a pre-nuptial agreement made between
him and his third wife, Rachell Starr. "Hicks, John; in 1641, came, with
Thomas and Robert, from Holland to New York; 1645, named in Dutch patent for
Flushing; 1650, or about that date, at Far Rockaway; 1653, Memb. of Engl.
Convention from Flushing; signed the petition, with others; 1658, appointed at
Hempstead to settle lines with the Indians, acting as Assistant Magistrate;
1663, Delegate to Hartford from Hempstead, and appointed Magistrate; 1665,
Member of Assembly from Hempstead" - List of Proprietors of Hempstead in
1647, The Early History of Hempstead, L. I., by Charles B. Moore, Long Island
Source Records, from the New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, p.580.
John Hicks, having learned his lesson, prepared the following pre-nuptial
agreement for his third wife, Rachel Starr:
January the 22 1662 - Conditions of an agreement betwixt John Hickes of
Hempstead of the one party , And Rachell Starre of Oysterbay of the other Party
Jointly and freely agreed upon by both parites before they enter or joyne in
Marriage estate, about the settling of their Estates, and for the preventing of
Differences betwixt the Children of the said John Hickes and Rachell Starres
shall bring to the said John Hickes of her owne (being taken upon Inventory) If
it please God to take her away first by Death, that then ye said estate which
Shee brought to ye said John Hickes shall return to ye children of ye sd
Rachell Starre. And likewise, the estate of said John Hickes, which is given in
by him by Inventory, the Day and year above written, In ye presence of Mr
Richard Gildersleeve, Mr Robert Ashman, & Jonas Houldsworth, Amounting to
the Summe of thirteen thousand three hundred and sixty gilders, and all Debte
Discharged, shall likewise return to his children, in case that the sd John
Hickes bee taken away by Death before her the sd Rachel Starre, (as is before
specified to her children). And further it is agreed upon between them, that it
shall please God that their estate shall or Do increase that then the said
increase shall equally bee divided, the one half to him and his children, the
other half to her and her children, at the death of either of them. And further
the sd John Hickes Doth give to the sd Rachel Starre (in case hee Die first)
During her widowhood, the house and lands and Meddowe belonging to it and Six
Cows, Foure Oxen, with the instrument of husbandry belonging to them, with so
much of the housaldstuff as she shall think meet for her Necessary use and a

"John Carman was a miller of grain, a sawmill operator, and prob. a farmer
too (REC 65:115 & HTR vol. 1&2). A mill of his stood on the west side
of Hicks Neck (HTR 8:365). He acted as a Townsmen of Hempstead in 1663 (HTR
1:131) John-2 Carman's last will, dated 1684 and prov. same year. he dir
Caleb-3 and John-3 to manage his Brother Joshua's estate, if he wished;
Mentions dau. Abigail; two eldest sons John and Caleb (executors) were to
receive the field called "Tylsum" (Toilsome?); son Benjamin-3 was to
receive the house formerly belonging to "Latten" and "the old
field at the south"; sons Joshua-3 and Joseph-3 (minors) who were to have
his grinding and sawing mills upon their majorities, the mills to be run
meanwhile by John & Caleb; sons Samuel & Thomas who were to have the
meadow next to the lot formerly Jacksons (these sons were doubtless minors
too). The overseer of the will was Samuel Emory (Embree doubtless) and John
Pine (REC 65:115)". In 1714 ref. was made to "Capt. John Carman,
dec.". John-3 (his son) was liv. 1720 (bro. Caleb-3's will), was a
Capt.... quite possible that the 1714 note was an error." - "John-1
Carman of Hempstead, Long Island and some of his descendants thru his son
John-2", Henry Alanson Tredwell Jr, Brooklyn, NY, August 1946.
After the death of his mother in 1660/61, John2 Carman, Caleb Carman and
Benjamin Coe (husband of Abigail Carman) sue John Hicks in court to recover for
their brother, Joshua Carman, the estate of their father which had passed to
John Hicks when he married their widowed mother. "... This land is assumed
to be the area known briefly as Fordham's necke, later to be Hicke's necke
(because John Hicks now owned the property of John Carman), and later to become
Baldwin Harbor. John Hicks appears to have lost most of the property in the
suit. Because of this law suit John Hicks has a pre-nuptial agreement made
between him and his third wife, Rachell Starr." - The Early History of Hempstead,
L. I., by Charles B. Moore, Long Island Source Records, from the New York
Genealogical and Biographical Record, p.580.
"Will says eldest son John, Caleb2, dau. Abigail, son Benjamin, sons
Samuel and Thomas, to have the land that lies near Robert Jackson's younger
sons Joshua and Joseph. Brother Joshua's property to be taken care of for him,
he to live with John and Caleb if he wishes to. Sons John and Caleb
executors." - "Genealogies of Long Island, compiled by Mary Powell
Bunker, p.165.
"In 1682, John Carman, sen., John Carman, jnr., and Caleb Carman, agree to
pay Jeremy Hobart, the minister, yearly during the time we live under his
ministry: John, sen. L2, John, jnr. 10 shilling, and Caleb 10 shilling." -
"Genealogies of Long Island, compiled by Mary Powell Bunker, p.164.
18 March 1686, In Confirmation of a bargain made between John Carman and John
Tredwell, said Carman's sons, John and Caleb of Hempstead, conveyed to John
Treadwell by deed... certain meadow lands lying "in ye Est fli" of
Hick's Neck, bounded by a creek on the east side; and, at the same time in
furtherance of said bargain, John Treadwell conveyed to the two Carman
grantors, 17 acres of meadow lands on Hick's Neck, bounded easterly , by Robert
Jackson's land, and on the north by land of the said John and Caleb; also one
acre off the south end of John Treadwell's fresh meadow - New York Genealogical
and Biographical Record, vol. II, p379.
John married about 1656 in Hempstead Hannah. The Seaman Genealogy states she
was Hannah Seaman. Seaman Genealogy also contends it is from the line of the
6th daughter of Captain John Seaman 'that Great Adam Carman was born'. For this
to be, all other facts being true, she would have to have been a Seaman. Others
are not so sure of her surname, but her given name was undisputedly Hannah. So
you have to make our own call on this one, I prefer Seaman.

One of the great challenges about John Carman, patentee of Hempstead, Long
Island is that there is more than one John Carman in early New England
history: For instances all of the following men named John Carman leave
records behind in 17th century America, but it is unlikely they are the same
man.
A John Cannon get his name changed and becomes John Carman in the later records
of the ship Fortune which arrived in America in 1621.
A John Carman is recorded in the records of the ship named "Plough"
which was originally bound for Maine but lands in Boston in 1631.
Although he does not show up on the ship's passenger list, another John Carman
is generally presumed to have arrived on the "Lyon" in 1631.
And then there are ships records that show a John Carman having at least been
on a ship as crewman that visited Boston.
Our John Carman of interest here, cannot be all of them. But history has left
us little to identify any of them
The John Carman who is the center of our attention here, is supposed to be born
about 1606 probably in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England (supposed in
that there is no hard proof, just family folklore) and died in Hempstead, Long
Island (the English didn't seize the area from the Dutch until 1669 so prior to
then it wasn't New York and Hempstead was semi-independent of New Netherlands,
but occupied by permission). before 15 October 1653. He married Florence
Fordham, born about 1610 and died 7 Feb 1660/61 at Jamaica, Long Island.
Florence is often referred to as the daughter of Rev. Robert Fordham who John
went to Long Island with and signed the treaty for the land that founded
Hempstead in 1641, but she is much more likely Robert Fordham's sister.
From the church records of Roxbury, we have hard evidence that John Carman
arrived in 1631; He had no children with him when he came; his first born was
born in 1633; and "Florence Carman wife of John Carman" is entered
into the church record in 1632 (it doesn't say in the entry whether she was
arriving then by ship, which would imply they were married in England and she
sailed later, or if that was married to John there in Roxbury).
From Roxbury there is mention of John Carman in Lynn, Massachusetts until 1637
when they moved to Sandwich, Massachusetts on Cape Cod. It is assumed he then
left for Wallingford and then Stamford, Connecticut as that is where the band
of patentees of Hempstead moved from. However, John Carman's name never
appears in Stamford records. So did he really move to Stamford, or did he
associate with these men by another (yet to be found) reason?
John Carman and Robert Fordham travelled to Long Island ahead of the band of
pioneers as their "agents" in 1643. The deed signed with the Indians
is dated 13 November 1643, so they were indeed there before the main party came
over. The commemorative mural of the event that hangs in Hempstead Village
Hall is probably accurate. Snow is still scarce on Long Island in November,
but it is getting cool (Some artistic license was taken with the muffler to
cover the face of John as no one knows what he actually looked like.) So chances
are they wintered on Long Island that winter of 1644, probably on the south
shore which is considerably warmer than the north and the Long Island Sound is
cold and rough any time of year, and may have been around present day Merrick,
Long Island where John did set up his homestead once the Town of Hempstead was
established later in 1644.
John Carman died before 15 October 1653 in Hempstead, Long Island a respected
and influential man of means.

Internet, 8/2007:
The general belief was that Florence Fordham was the daughter of Rev. Robert
Fordham, who with John Carman went to Long Island and signed the Indian treaty
for the roughly 200,000 acres that comprise modern day Nassau County, Long
Island. I am not sure where that all started from for sure, but more likely
she is the sister of Robert Fordham and John Carman and Robert Fordham were
brothers-in-law.
Tredwell Fleet Carman, in his letter of 1880 to Ezra Ayres Carman states that
John and Robert were brother's-in-law in a rather matter-of-fact way.

from Maine
I do so appreciate your writing to me, thanks so much. I will check and see
just where in England they came from, but they came from there and settled in
Oyster Bay Long Island (the ritzy place now) New York. From there they went to
Canada. They lived in Queens Co. New Brunswick, predominantly Chipman and surrounding
settlements.
Our Hawkhurst name is famous for a place in Kent with the same name, and
thus emerged the Hawkhurst pirates who smuggled and did other piratical activities.
I was corresponding with a retired police captain in Fredricton who's email
name was the Hawk, and he was enthralled with the pirate story.
Let me check my files and get a point of origin for you. You said your
Hawkhursts were older than mine, of that I have no doubt. A question for you:
Where in Ireland did your Leckey's come from? Mine were from Donegal, and went
to Canada in 1824. I would so love for there to be a connection.
Later...

Hannah Townsend, who married Samson Hawxhurst was b. 1630. She was the dau. of
John Townsend and Johannah Smith. John was b. abt. 1661 in Warwick England. He
d. 9 Mar 1705 in Oyster Bay, Long Island, New York. Johannah was b. abt 1660
and d. bef. 1693. John was the son of Henry Townsend b. abt. 1631 in Norwich
Eng. and d. 1695. His wife was Anne Coles b. abt. 1639. The rest are names
only, but go back. Henry's father was Thomas Townsend. Thomas's father was
Henry Townsend of Brecon-Ash England who married Margaret Forthe.
This does not agree with Bert Poole:
My original source (HA Poole) has a different line from Hannah, who married
Sampson Hawkhurst (b 1671):
Hannah (b abt 1680)
James (b 1665) & Audrey Almy
John (b abt 1630) & Phebe Williams
John & Elizabeth Coles
Thomas (b 8/1/1595) & Mary
Henry (b1568) & Margaret.

Ellen Bennem
Her dau married the GGG granddau of Pierce Poole 1 via Solomon Poole.
From: "Rachel Evans"[xiv]
I am emailing you in regards to your posting at rootsweb about Ellen Bennem. I
am curious if you have any further information about her as I believe she is in
my family tree. I have an Eleanor Maria "Ellen", born 9 March 1827.
If this is her I have further information on her family if you are interested.
sincerely, Rachel Evans
Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2006
I came in possession of copies from a Family Bible for the Bennem family. Was
bought by her grandfather, John Bennem. It passed down to his son, John, who is
Ellen's father. Ellen was listed as Eleanor Maria. The family seems to have at
least one Eleanor every generation that I've found but they never use the name.
It is usually Ellen or Nellie in records.
She was born 9 March 1827 to John Bennem and Catherine Cornell. I'm descended
from Ellen's youngest brother (yet another john). I have part of both her
parents lines done into the 1600's while I have hit walls with others. Was
quite a shock to find the listing for her. I have not found many references to
the Bennem family in other's research. Most I have ended up doing on my own due
to quite a few mistakes I found in the one history of the family I did happen
to locate.
I'll see what records I have on Ellen's family. I know I gathered quite a bit
while researching in the Zion Church, Douglaston, NY. Have done quite a bit of
research on any of the Bennem's I did find with hopes of maybe finding
something further about my direct line ancestors. I do know Benjamin and Ellen
were married 4 July 1845 at Zion. The family was very closely linked with the
church. Her father being a vestryman, her Cornell grandfather being only
revolutionary war veteran buried there, and her brother John is listed on the
graveyard tour.
(Robert) Stocker Woolley
21/12/2002, George Sherman Woolley
I am a direct descendant from Stocker Woolley ("Robert Stocker
Woolley") who married Elizabeth "Eliza" Cheesman December 26,
1821 where they lived on his Lakeville, Nassau County, Long Island, New York
farm that I have visited many times during my youth when my uncle Daniel
Stocker Woolley owned this farm at 325 Lakeville Road & opposite to Lake
Success.
I have his children from his second marriage to Elizabeth Cheesman as: Hobart
Sanford Woolley born March 29, 1825 (my great grandfather), Thomas Tredwell
Woolley born November 9, 1826, and Cornelia Woolley born November 29, 1827 and
married Richard Allen on April 14, 1850.
I have found no record that Stocker Woolley's first name was "Robert"
in our Woolley family Bible. Stocker was son of Benjamin Woolley who married
Susannah Stocker.
I have found no records of Stocker Woolley's children from his second marriage
to Elizabeth Cheesman as being: Sadie C. Woolley, Charles Woolley, Nelson
Woolley, Eugene Woolley, or Emma Woolley. I have found no records of their
births, deaths, marriages, or such event locations.
I did find a list of heirs in the will of William Poole Cheesman born January
30, 1805, never married, and died before October 28, 1880. His will was
probated December 15, 1880 in Buffalo, Erie County, New York. His will mentions
as his heirs some of the following:
Charles Woolley, Nelson C. Woolley, Sadie C. Woolley of Geneva, Robert S.
Woolley, and Emma Woolley of Great Neck.
Elizabeth Cheesman was William Poole Cheesman's older sister.
Hobart Sanford Woolley born 3-29-1825, died 5-9-1883, married 3-2-1858 to Phebe
Brinkerhoff. They are my great grandparents at their Lakeville farm.
Thomas Tredwell Woolley born 11-9-1826, died 1-29-1858 (pre-deceased William
Poole Cheesman)
Cornelia Woolley born 11-29-1827, died 3-9-1891. married 4-14-1850 to Richard
Allen born 7-18-1820, died 7-28-1905.
I have traced my Woolley roots back to 1066 AD in England; and Elizabeth Week's
roots back to 160 AD.
George Sherman Woolley, Jr. (born 9-8-1930 in Jamaica, Queens Co., N.Y.)

There was no Robert S. Woolley living in Lakeville, Long Island in 1880.
However there was my great grandfather Hobart Sanford Woolley living on the
Woolley homestead Lakeville farm until his death on May 9, 1883.
It is possible and probable that Hobart could be misread as "Robert"
in William Poole Cheesman's will.
Thomas Tredwell Woolley b. 11-9-1826, d. 1-29-1868, married Jane Hewlett; and
had the following children: Charles Woolley (died young), Eugene Woolley (died
in infancy), Nelson Cordwise Woolley (married Frances Zobrist), and Emma
Woolley b. 1861, d. 1947 (never married).
Thomas Tredwell Woolley was son of Stocker Woolley and Elizabeth Cheesman.
Elizabeth Cheesman was William Poole Cheesman's sister.
Sarah (Sadie) Woolley was the second-born daughter of Thomas Tredwell Woolley
and Jane Hewlett
This may clarify some of the mystery regarding "Robert S. Woolley"
and a few others mentioned in William Poole Cheesman's will.
Fri, 20 Feb 2004 From: "George Woolley"[xv]
Stocker Woolley (no "george" found in his name here) married 1st
Phebe Tredwell, and they had 4 children before she died in 1820; then he
married Eliza Cheeseman, and they had 3 children (including my great
grandfather Hobart Sanford Woolley who married Phebe Anne Brinkerhoff.
Hobart Woolley & Phebe Anne Brinkerhoff had 10 children before she died two
months after her twins were born (both twin boys were dead by then too). They
had 5 other sons and a daughter. My paternal grandfather was Sherman Tredwell
Woolley (twin) to William Cheeseman Woolley.
I have photos of Hobart Sanford Woolley on down, and of his wife her parents.
They lived on the Woolley Homestead farm at 325 Lakeville Road, Lake Success,
New York. I have visited that farm many times when I was younger (before my
father's brother, Daniel Stocker Woolley died in 1949). Uncle Dan was my
grandfather's older brother who owned the Woolley Homestead farm for many years
prior to his death there (his only child, Harold Townsend Woolley died during
the terrible 1918 flu epidemic while enlisted in the U.S. Navy after he shared
a blanket with one of his friends who died shortly before he died.
Stocker Woolley was a farmer who inherited the Woolley Homestead farm from his
father, and the adjoining Treadwell farm from his first wife, Phebe Treadwell.
He lived on the Woolley Homestead farm from 1790 until his death in 1857). This
farm was located at 325 Lakeville Road (at Lake Success), Great Neck -
Manhasset, L.I., New York. After his first wife Phebe died, he was unable to
raise his young children by himself, and he had to "farm them out" to
live with other Woolley family members.
Stocker Woolley, youngest son of Benjamin Woolley, lived on the Woolley Lake
Success Homestead farm in Great Neck, Long Island, New York from 1790 until his
death. He inherited the Lake Success farm from his father, AND the adjoining
Treadwell farm from his first wife, Phebe Treadwell. He had 4 children from
Phebe, and 3 more from his second wife, Elizabeth Cheeseman.
What we know about the Woolley farms and their early owners, by H. Leslie
Hicks:
The Woolleys were one of the first settlers of Great Neck, Nassau County,
L.I., New York
June 10, 1766 Robert Mitchell sold 104 acres and 43 square rods in the middle
of Great Neck, Long Island to Henry Stocker for 100 Pounds.
May 20, 1772 Uriah Mitchell sold 30 adjoining acres to Benjamin Woolley for
32 Pounds.
November 30, 1773 Benjamin Woolley Married Susannah Stocker, daughter of Henry
Stocker.
In his will, Henry Stocker left his 104 acre farm to Susannah Stocker Woolley
and to her Husband, Benjamin Woolley, in two equal shares.
August 20, 1809 Susannah Stocker Woolley died in July, and on this date all
their children deeded over their mother's half interest in the farm to Benjamin
Woolley, their father.
April 21, 1810 Benjamin Woolley sold his original 30 acres of his land to his
younger sons, John and Stocker Woolley for 300 Pounds.
May 30, 1811 Stocker Woolley married Phebe Tredwell of Lakeville, Nassau
County, Long Island, N.Y.
March 5, 1814 Benjamin Woolley sold the 104 acre Stocker Woolley farm to John
and Stocker Woolley for $2,000. A missing document of approximately the same
dating must have assured him of a continuing home on the farm.
March 22, 1814 John and Stocker Woolley bought from William Tredwell (Stocker
Woolley's father-in-law) 141 acres at Lake Success, the "Whitending
Yard" on the lake shore, and 6 acres of salt meadow , all for $6,750.
March 23, 1814 The four sisters of John and Stocker Woolley signed off any
residual interest in the 104 acre Great Neck farm, and cleared the title to
John and Stocker Woolley.
April 28, 1814 Stocker Woolley deeded over to John Woolley his half interest
in the 104 acre Great Neck Farm for $ 3,000. Presumably, although the document
is not at hand, John similarly made Stocker Woolley sole owner of the Lakeville
farm. Wooley Homestead House built in 1814 at 325 Lakeville Road.
May 12, 1814 John Woolley signed an agreement assuming sole responsibility
(and relieving Stocker Woolley from the partied pation) in fulfilling a prior
agreement between them and Benjamin Woolley, their father, under which
Benjamin Woolley was to have:
(a) Two rooms in the farmhouse.
(b) "good and comfortable and decent boarding, lodging, and washing".
(c) privilege to keep one horse, one cow, one hog, and six fowls.
(d) The use of two acres of land for the full term of his natural life, but
Benjamin "hath not the liberty to take any person or persons to live with
him without consent of said John and Stocker Woolley"
August 21, 1815 Stocker Woolley sold 57 of his wife's Tredwell farm acres
(along the highway down the Hill toward --?--- Avenue) to Nathaniel Williams
for $ 1,275.
May 5, 1818 William Tredwell died (his wife, Winnefrid died September 19,
1830). Phebe Tredwell (Hobart Sanford Woolley's first wife) inherited her
father's adjoining Lakeville farm.
August 8, 1820 Phebe Tredwell Woolley died, and her husband, Hobart Sanford
Woolley inherited the adjoining Lakeville Tredwell farm from his deceased wife,
Phebe.
October 2, 1820 Benjamin Woolley died.
December 26, 1823 Stocker Woolley took a second wife, marrying Eliza
Cheeseman. At some date unknown, there must have been an agreement by someone,
presumably Stocker Woolley, with some of the Tredwells to provide lifetime
housing, etc. on what is evidently a copy of pertinent paragraph which reads:
"to provide and accommodate her with good meat and drink and other
necessities for her support daily and every day in due concern; and to have the
use of the room in the northwest corner of the house in which the said William
Tredwell now lives, and to have sufficient room in the said house to store and
keep their goods and to bring them good wood to the door of the said house
sufficient to keep and support one fire and to provide and furnish her good
wool sufficient to make clothing for her, and to keep for them one horse on
the said premises both winter and summer so they keep their own horses, and the
privilege of one hog to run on the premises in the orchids so to be food in the
summer season for their hogs."
August 19, 1857 Stocker Woolley died. Hobart Sanford Woolley gave a mortgage
to his brother and half brothers, and came into ownership of the Lakeville farm
located at 325 Lakeville Road.
This Lakevile farm is also known as the Woolley Homestead farm.
Stocker Woolley was a farmer who inherited the Woolley Homestead farm from his
father, and the adjoining Treadwell farm from his first wife, Phebe
Treadwell. He lived on the Woolley Homestead farm from 1790 until his death
in 1857). This farm was located at 325 Lakeville Road (at Lake Success),
Great Neck - Manhasset, L.I., New York. After his first wife Phebe died, he
was unable to raise his young children by himself, and he had to "farm
them out" to live with other Woolley family members.
Stocker Woolley, youngest son of Benjamin Woolley, lived on the Woolley Lake
Success Homestead farm in Great Neck, Long Island, New York from 1790 until his
death. He inherited the Lake Success farm from his father, AND the adjoining
Treadwell farm from his first wife, Phebe Treadwell. He had 4 children from
Phebe, and 3 more from his second wife, Elizabeth Cheeseman.

located at 325 Lakeville Road.
This Lakevile farm is also known as the Woolley Homestead farm.
My Uncle "Dan" (Daniel Stocker Woolley) was my favorite uncle who
also took a liking to me as I grew older and while I was approaching graduation
from Cornell University, Uncle Dan told me that he would buy a farm for me
after I graduated; but, unfortunately, nothing was in writing before he died
January 4, 1949 (2 years before I graduated early). By: George Sherman
Woolley, Jr. (October 11, 1999)
After the sudden unexpected death from pneumonia of Phebe B. Woolley in 1874,
Frederick Woolley's father, Hobart S. Woolley, was unable to raise all of his
children by himself, so some were "farmed out" to live with other
adult relatives. Only Samuel, Daniel, Frederick, Charles, & Sherman
Woolley remained on the farm to live with their father.
Daniel Stocker Woolley was born in his home at 325 Lakeville Road, Great Neck,
N.Y. in the same room as his father was born. He resided in this homestead
farm home during his entire lifetime. All Uncle Dan's siblings were born in
this house slept in the same Woolley cradle that continued to be used by the
descendants of Sherman Tredwell Woolley, including William George Woolley (son
of Robert George Woolley & Linda Jacobson) and Debra Ann Woolley-Gregory
Allan Syfert children.
His business letterhead of one time read:
"D.S. Woolley & Bro,, Grazing Farm"
"Horses boarded by the month or year at owner's risk. Best care -"
P.O. Address Little Neck
Telephone 24J Great Neck-

Railroad Station - Great Neck. (February 19th, 1913) Lakeville,
L.I.
Daniel S. Woolley was an active civic leader in Little Neck and Great Neck who
promoted many civic improvements. He was responsible for making arrangements
for securing the property on which the Lakeville School stands (as of 1949),
and was instrumental in the organization of some of the stations of the
Manhasset-Lakeville Water District, of which he was a commissioner.
He was a former agent for the Glen Cove Mutual Insurance Company. He had also
served as a trustee and vice-president of the Roslyn Savings Bank, a director
of the Bank of Great Neck, and as the first cashier of the Great Neck Trust
Company.
He was a trustee of the Lakeville School District for 40 years, and was a
deacon and elder of the Dutch Reformed Church (now known as the Community
Church of North Hempstead, in Manhasset.
Daniel S. Woolley became superintendent of the Little Neck Union Bible School
in 1918, and served in that capacity until 1945. During his 27 years as
superintendent, he became interested in establishing a community church in
Little Neck; and in 1926 he offered to guarantee a minister's salary for
several months, if the men of the Bible School would canvas the community to
ascertain whether the residents would support such a church.... and thus the
Community Church of Little Neck was born.
Later on Daniel S. Woolley made substantial contributions toward
improvements in the church building. He was also active in securing permission
to establish the Sperry Gyroscope Corporation (later, Sperry-Rand Corp.) in
the Lakeville area.
Daniel S. Woolley took-in & raised Eleanore "Woolley" as if
adopted. Eleanor was a foster child who was never adopted. She later married
attorney Floyd Martin Sheffield. Floyd Martin Sheffield died October 26, 1957
and Lawrence Miller Woolley was his estate's Executor.
The Woolley homestead farm was adjacent to Westbury House that was the
country estate of financier and sportsman John Shaffer Phipps (1874-1958) and
his wife, Margarita Grace Phipps (1876-1957). Mr. Phipps was the son of Henry
Phipps, a partner in the Carnegie Steel Company and a noted philanthropist.
Mrs. Phipps was the daughter of Michael Grace of Kilkenny, Ireland, who, with
his brother William, founded the Grace Shipping Lines in South America. Mrs.
Phipps used to occasionally climb through the barbed wire fences to visit with
Nellie Van Siclen Woolley. The Phipps had a row of full-grown trees planted
along the fence line ajsoining the Woolley Homestead farm in order to screen
their view of the Woolley farm buildings. After Mr.Phipps died, his wife was
reputed to be one of the wealthiest women in the world.
Dear Antony,
I grew-up on Long Island, New York not far from my Uncle Dan's farm. We lived
in Douglaston, Long Island while I attended high school and Cornell University
(Ithaca, New York). My parents purchased that house from Uncle Dan (the
Douglaston house was presumed to be over 200 years old at that time). After I
married in 1952, my parents sold the Douglaston house and relocated to their
converted summer home on 26 acres in Callicoon (up-state in the Catskill Mts.),
New York.
My wife & I relocated to Montgomery County, Maryland in 1956 with our 4
children (another daughter was born here). We owned 3 houses here (none more
than 5 miles away from where we now have resided for more than 33 years.
Emigrant Robert Woolley (born August 2, 1615 at St. Albans Abby, Hertfordshire,
England) was the son of Robert Woolley & grandson of Thomas Woolley who
lived in the St. Albans Clock House/tower for more than 40 years after Thomas
Woolley leased it from the Town for 40 years. Emigrant Robert Woolley is at
Fairfield, Connecticut where he purchased a house & 6 acres in 1638. He
relocated to Southampton, Long Island about 1655 and married a second wife with
whom he had 5 daughters and a son, Robert. My line is from his first marriage
(wife still unidentified) and his oldest son, John Woolley.
Emigrant Robert Woolley inherited his father's estate (oldest surviving son)
and is also mentioned in Alice Pemberton William's 1634 will that I have copied
from Internet. I also copied her husband's England will.
Interestingly, Emigrant Robert Woolley's mother was Tecla Pemberton. Tecla's
father was Roger Pemberton whose sister, Alice Pemberton married James Williams
who was a London wool merchant. Alice Pemberton and James Williams are the
parents of Rev. Roger Williams who is called the father of Providence, Rhode
Island and became a Rhode Island Governor.
Thomas Woolley, of the Clock House, was a Burgass, and gentleman. At the
Inquisition taken at Ware, August 15, 1609, after the death of Thomas (Wolley)
Woolley, gentleman, it was proved by witnesses that: "Thomas Wolley was
seised in fee of the Manor of Harpsfield Hall and a messauage in the Vyntree in
St. Albans, a messauge in the Parish of St. Stephens, and a messauge in the
Malt Market, St. Albans; and had enfeoffed one Ellen West, widow, and one
Robert Wolley of the Clockhouse. To the use of Robert Wolley , eldest son of
said Thomas, for the life of Thomas, and thereafter, to the use of Ellen
Wolley, wife of said Thomas, and after her death, then to Robert
forever". Other messauges to sons, one to each. in St. Albans: Thomas,
Richard, John, and Benjamin, and two messauges to Joan Wolley, sole (surving)
daughter of said Thomas. "Thomas Wolley died, so seised, on June 3, 1608,
and Robert Wolley is his son and next heir & at his father's death was aged
30 years and more."
St. Albans, a borough and market town in the hundred of Cashio, or liberty of
St. Alban's, county of Hertford, 12½ mi. southwest of Hertford, and 20 mi.
north northwest of London. See also Parishes within 10 miles of St Albans,
Hertsfordshire. St Albans includes the churches Abbey, St. Michael, St. Peter
and St. Stephens. Thus far, of the records included here, the only parish
records included are selected extracts from IGI entries for the Abbey and St.
Peter's. There are also still many more St. Alban's entries still to be
extracted.
Emigrant Robert Woolley's young son (from second marriage to Anne Woodruff),
Robert (Jr.or III) relocated to Elizabethtown (now Elizabeth), New Jersey where
his listed as being among the founders called Elizabethtown (E-Town)
Associates, and in about 1699 he drew a 100 acre Westfield Lot #69
("Clinker Lot # 69). To-date, I have not found any other records about
him other than that there is a line of New Jersey Woolleys who claim to be
descendants of emigrant Robert Woolley and Anne Woodruff (his father &
mother).
I also have a great amount of information about this New Jersey line; but no
positive direct-line proof other than information based upon heresay.
I have also been in touch with Warren Stocker Woolley who lives in Bayside,
Long Island, New York (next town just west of Douglaston). Most of the
Douglaston kids attended Bayside High School; but my sister & I commuted to
another high school further away where our mother & her siblings also
graduated from). Warren S. Woolley is the brother of Harold Oakley Woolley, Jr.
Their grandfather was William Stocker Woollley. Their gg grandfather was
Stocker Woolley whose first wife was Phebe Tredwell.
A man who lives in St. Albans Abby, Hertfordshire, England. Donald Pelletier
sent me some photos he took of the Clock house/tower that is now a tourist
attraction because it was built in the 1400's. He contacted me via Internet
because he was researching some English Pemberton family genealogy that was
connected with my Pemberton line. It's amazing how much computers, Internet,
and E-mail have so drastically changed our lives in such a short time-span.
Best wishes from Rockville, Maryland, USA,
George S. Woolley, Jr.
Donald Pelletier of St. Albans, Hertfordshire, England took photos of the Clock
House & Bell Tower in 2001, and E-mailed them to George S. Woolley, Jr. who
then included them in the Scrap Book section for Robert Woolley, Thomas
Woolley's father.

I found your family at ancestory.com and I found that we are related although
distantly. I did find however that you are missing us on this line so maybe I
can shed some light. My paternal grandmother's name is Marion Ferrie, her
parents are Cornelious James Ferrie and Mable Parker Mackie. Now the Ferrie
lines goes all the way back to Ireland and is extensive. Mable Parker Mackie's
parents were William Mackie and an unknown spouse. William Mackie's parents are
William Mackie and Hannah Gibbs Whiting (I got this from an 1880 census). This
census also lists their children as being Alice, William, Lizzie, Sumner,
Edward, Charles, Hannah Lawson Gibbs, and James Henry Mackie. This William
Mackie is my direct decendant. This Hannah Lawson Gibbs Mackie is married to
John Henry Blackbird. Their daughter is Pearl Elizabeth who is married to Orrin
Brenner June. Orrin is the son of Alexander June and Adelaide Rushmore Smith.
Therefore there is the connection. I don't know if you are interested in this
but I have 16 generations with much of your help. Thank you Christa Ferrie

I am so glad to here from you. I put the family tree away for the last few
months because I am trying to finish a degree and never have time to work on it
during the year so i focus on it during the summer. I almost forgot I even
wrote you that message. I live in California, the Ferrie line or Ferry (someone
changed the spelling ) is mostly from the Staten Island area. I was born in New
Jersey, but have been out here awhile. Lets see CJ is what my dad called
(Cornelious James) born 8/18/1894 in New York, died 1/30/1977 in New York.
Married Mable Parker Mackie. She was born in 1893 in Massachusetts (I think she
is a connection to the Mayflower but I cant find who her mothers parents were)
She died after 1920, but before 1950's my father has no recollection of her and
CJ was a widow by the time my father remembered which would be after 1949. They
had Marion Emmajean Ferrie (my grandmother), Walter Parker Ferrie, Edward James
Ferrie, and Cornelious Paul Ferrie (Uncle Paul). Marion married Erek Ereksen
(Erek died in 1968 from Jaudice and Live failure), they had Paul Ereksen, Emma
Jean Ereksen, Cornelious Ereksen (Neil), and Hans Christian Ereksen. Paul
married Christine (my mothers father died in 1966 from an industrial accident)
and they had Christa and Ereka (my connection), Walter married Mary Deskiner
and they had Rhoda, Parker Winston, and James Ferrie, (Walter died 1/23/2003
and is buried in Tottenville, Staen Island) Edward married Julia Zayol and they
had Allyson, Edward, and James Paul, and Cornelious Paul died 7/30/1946 in a
submarine off the coast of Greenland during the war. He never married. I have a
little more, but I hope this helps. Hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Mr. Maitland,
I don't know how many persons do respond to the genealogical research you
published in the internet. At least you made me happy! I do research on a
person called Alexander Georg Moslé whom you probably remember from the family
history of Herbert Poole. Moslés business in Japan has always been a mystery,
everybody knows about it but nobody knows anything in detail or has any
documents to prove the story. Thus the personal story of Mr. Poole fills the
gap and perhaps will lead to further results.
That Mr. Moslé has not only been a clever businessman, he also collected
Japanese art and brought together an estimated collection, especially sword
fittings etc. I got a large collection of letters he had written to a very
young lady in the 1930s and 1940s. I hope that the project will be published.
Therefore I would like to ask you whether you know of other materials,
documents, records and so on from Herbert Poole which tell something about
Moslé? I am surprised that in the family history he did not mention whether he
and Moslé met again in the USA or in Leipzig. In the 1930s Moslé spent a large
part of the year in the USA and since 1940 until his death in 1949 he stayed in
USA permanently.
When did Herbert Poole die? May be I did not read all your research
publications in the internet in depth.
As for me I am a free-lance researcher, especially in the field of Japanese
studies (history, culture, art etc.) and live in Germany.

Ref Captain Solomon Townsend from Andrew & Kathy Way aandk at mindspring
com October 2005.
From Logan's Book page 48 Chapter IX
...the Emigrant ship Glasgow arrived (New York)Oct. 3, 1775. Its arrival and
the action taken were recorded in the of HMS Asia by Captain Vandeput (Asia 64
gun ship of the line was stationed in New York Harbor to prevent the landing of
arms and ammunition and to assist loyalist refugees to escape to Boston)
This is a different date from end of September mentioned before.
Capt Vandeput report: ...emigrant ship was boarded. Ten of the seamen were
impressed into the King's service, a crew of 31 men and two petty officers were
put aboard her. After provisions for 28 days had been put aboard she sailed for
Boston on the fifth day November 1775. Aboard her were 255 emigrants.
Interesting its not 251. Wonder why. Perhaps Mr Fraser and Mr Chisholm, and
maybe Mr. Chisholm's 1/2 brother plus 2 others (wives?) were not counted since
they were the organizers and families.
Next talks about enlisting men into British military.
After the ship Glasgow was re-provisioned and all the enlistment formalities
completed it sailed for Halifax and discharged its cargo of emigrants and their
worldly goods. (Glasgow returned to Boston) and was re-commissioned as a
transport with the British Navy. The Master, Captain Townsend, was permitted at
his own request to remain as master under Naval Command.
Solomon Townsend, according to his family records took The Glasgow back to
England and she was held there for safe keeping until the war was over. While
he was in Paris he gave his allegiance to Benjamin Franklin and took the Rebel
side in 1778.
Since there was a frigate HMS Glasgow with the North American fleet, it was
renamed the Glasgow Packet. The ship was registered with Lloyds of London and
appeared in the 1776 Register. It was built in New York in 1769, 250 tons
register, draught loaded 17 feet.
This is probably an error. According to "Cargoes of Despair and Hope"
The Glasgow Packet came over with Murdoch Mclean in charge. In June of 1776 the
Packet was part of the attack on Charlestown, SC. Its men, including Alexander
Chisholm were taken Prisoner when it was stuck on a sand bar at Dewee's inlet,
21 July.
When the ship containing the highland emigrants made its way into Halifax
Harbor, Captain Alexander McDonald the commandant of the training depot of the
Highland Emigrant Regiment was writing a letter. The letter was dated Jan 2,
1776. So the arrival of the ship pinpointed, the date exact.
Wow!
Page 50 Despite strenuous efforts to recruit men he had only 200 recruits to
date mostly from PEI and Newfoundland with 35 loyalists from Boston.
You mean before the Glasgow crew arrived?
housed in Halifax at the Red Barracks designed to accommodate over 1000 men...
Some sections would be occupied by the men and lads of eleven years up. These
were enlisted as drummer boys. The other sections would house the women and
children.
When Capt. McDonald checked them thru, and took their names, (Alice asks would
this information be in letters of Capt McDonald? - The "Letter Book of
Captain Alexander McDonald" is a collection of copies of his letters
collected by the New York Historical Society and published in 1883. A copy is
in the Nova Scotia Archives. The "Naval Documents of the American Revolution"
is also in the Nova Scotia Archives. (In 1976 when Logan's book was first
published) ...still under compilation. Vol 6, the most recently published only
extends to December 1776. ...It contains original documents from British as
well as American sources.
Are you near there? Do you know someone who could look for us?
When Capt. McDonald checked them thru and checked their names, it sounded like
the roll call of the clans which had followed Prince Charlie. Some of the older
men had fought at Culloden. It was a great day for Capt. McDonald. His
battalion was augmented by over a hundred men and all highlanders.
Page 51 ...Capt. McDonald remarked in his report to Major Small, his commanding
officer in Boston. "There were almost as many women as men on the ship
They had enough luggage to fill St. Paul's Church" This was remarkable as
we know the Hector which had arrived a little more than two years earlier, was
more characteristic of an emigrant ship. It contained 33 families and 25
unattached men.
Great!
