This supports the marriage license in Danville, Vermilion County, Illinois, that was for Doctor Dillon and Lucy Harmison. Doctor Dillon must have been Chesterfield Worth. Chesterfield Worth could not read or write at the time he married. He signed his marriage record with an “X” on page two.

Census for Indiana, Rush County, Jackson Township, Roll M432_170, Page 556, Dwelling #52, Family #54, Elizabeth Worth, age 3, female, born in Indiana.

Elizabeth Worth married Jesse W. Lewellen on November 17, 1864. [State of Indiana, Montgomery Co., Marriages, Jesse W. Lewellen and Elizabeth Worth, married November 17, 1864, filed and recorded January 28, 1865, Book 6, p. "The proper Consent having been first filed by Jesse Lewallyn & John Worth a resident of said county."]
Elizabeth Worth and her husband Jesse Lewellen lived in the Shannandale community not far from John C. Worth and his wife Matilda (Horn). [U. S. Census of Indiana, 1880, Montgomery Co., Shannandale, enumerated June 11, 1880, by F. H. Marshall, p. 16, e. d. 102, John Worth, wife Matilda, dwelling 152, family 153; Jesse Lewellen, wife Elizabeth, dwelling 158, family 159.] [State of Indiana, Tippecanoe Co., Marriages, John Worth and Matilda Horn, May 14, 1866, Book C-11, p. 202.]

Lucy Jane Harmison, the widow of Chesterfield Worth, married again on June 9, 1896, in Terre Haute, Indiana. Lucy married Jesse Lewellen, the widower of Elizabeth Worth, who was the sister of Chesterfield. Elizabeth Worth Lewellen apparently died sometime between March 26, 1888, and June 9, 1896.
5) Chesterfield Worth and his wife, Lucy Jane Harmison, had named their first two children after Jesse Lewellen and Elizabeth Worth Lewellen. [U. S. Census of Illinois, 1880, Vermilion Co., Oakwood Township, e. d. 219, sheet 41, dwelling 298, family 299, enumerated June 28, 1880, by Magruder W. named John C. Worth. [U.S. Indiana Census for 1860, Hendricks County, Middle Township, John C. Worth age 15, male, Chester F. D. Worth age 10.]
We know from a letter written by John Worth, at New Ross, Indiana to Hiram C. Worth of Greensboro, NC, that John Worth had a son named John Worth who visited with Hiram C. Worth at his home in Greensboro, NC, “in the time of the war”. [Letter from John Worth (New Ross, Indiana) to Hiram C. Worth (Greensboro, North Carolina), 1 February 1886. Original letter at Hege Library, Friends Historical Collection, Guilford College, Greensboro, NC.]
The death certificate of John C. Worth gives his date of birth as May 8, 1845, lists his father as John Worth and that he was buried at Clark’s Hill Cemetery. His tombstone at Clark’s Hill includes an inscription indicating he served in the 120th Indiana Infantry.
According to his military records, John C. Worth’s unit, the 120th Indiana, was at Greensboro, NC, sometime between May 1865 and August 22, 1865. He probably visited with Hiram C. Worth during this time. [National Archives, Civil War Pension Records, John C. Worth, 120th Indiana Infantry, Private, Company C, soldier's certificate #368-228, Can #7 730, Bundle #22, wife Rebecca J. Worth, number 497,241 appears on the cover of his folder, also #1,567,964. File contains a copy of his Honorable Discharge, a copy of his Death Certificate, and a copy of the Death Certificate for Matilda (Horn) Worth, his first wife.]
John C. Worth married Mary A. Hamm on or about February 4, 1920. The marriage certificate lists his father as John Worth and his mother as Julia Ann Hiatt. [Julia Ann Drysdale, as listed on the marriage license to John Worth, the father of John C. and Chesterfield, probably was at one time Julia Ann Hiatt.]
The evidence strongly supports the conclusion that John C. Worth and Chesterfield Worth were brothers and the sons of John Worth.

born: 27 January 1814, Kentucky, USA

WILLIAM HARTMAN and his daughter MARY LUELLA HARTMAN
1) The tombstone of William Hartman at Hicks Cemetery, Perrysville, Indiana, indicates, "died May 31, 1896 aged 70 y 8 m 26 d". Therefore, William was born 5 September 1825.
2) Elizabeth Hartman, mother of William Hartman and widow of George Hartman was living near Elijah and Sarah (Hartman) Harshbarger in the 1850 Wabash Township, Fountain Co., IN, census. Elizabeth was listed as age 55 and born in Virginia.

The Court then appointed Mr. Lyons as guardian for all the minor heirs.
4) George Hartman appears in the 1830 Rockingham Co., Virginia census records. There were several Harshbarger listings in the 1830 Census records for Rockingham Co., Virginia, and it is likely some of the Harshbarger family moved to Indiana with the Hartmans. Sarah Hartman, a sister of William, married Elija Harshbarger on 1 October 1840 in Fountain Co., Indiana. See Indiana Marriages, 1810-2001.
5) William Hartman was living in the Elija and Sarah (Hartman) Harshbarger household at the time of the 1850 Wabash Township, Fountain Co., IN census. William was listed as age 23 and born in Virginia. William was listed as a farmer and apparently owned the land that Elijah Harshbarger, also listed as a farmer, was farming. The value of the real estate of William Hartman was shown as $200 while there was no real estate value associated with Elijah Harshbarger.

Witnesses to the marriage were a Joseph Nicholas and Sarah A. Short.

Subject: Re: Petworth Immigration Records AMM/AV.38 Date: Aug 26, 2005 5:24 AM. Dear Mr. Older, Thank you for your enquiry concerning George Older and his family. One sentence of a letter from him, written in 1836, was published in Continuation of letters from Sussex Emigrants... written in 1836, which was published in 1837. There is also a mention of him in a letter of 1836 to Rev. Thomas Socket, chairman of the Petworth Emigration Committee, from William Robinson, for whom George was working. The family are also mentioned in the journal of Sarah Knight, who had emigrated in 1821 to Nelsonville, Ohio. All the above are published in English Immigrant Voices, ed. Cameron, Haines, and McDougall Maude, published in 2000 by McGill-Queen's University Press. A list of all emigrants under the Petworth scheme, with all the information about them, and the sources, was published in the companion volume Assisting Emigration to Upper Canada, The Petworth Project 1832-1837, by Wendy Cameron and Mary McDougall Maude. These volumes were the fruit of a ten year research project in Canada and England, funded by the Jackson Foundation, the Jacksons themselves being descended from a family who emigrated under the Petworth scheme. If you are unable to obtain the books, we could copy the relevant sources for you, either by photocopying or scanning. I can let you have an estimate of the cost should it be necessary. Yours sincerely, Alison McCann, Assistant County Archivist.
24) George Older married Sarah Gilbert in England.(32) No information on her parents is known. George Older and Sarah Gilbert were the parents of five children:
Emily Older, a daughter, was born October 11, 1833, in England.(Samuel Older of Sussex, England, Bingler, page 7.) She married Andrew Harrington on August 28, 1853, in Ross County, Ohio.( Andrew Arrington entry, Ross County, Ohio, marriage index.) Emily (Older) Harrington died in 1925 in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon.
George Older Junior, the oldest son, was born September 13, 1835, "on the ocean".(Bingler, page 33.) George married Mary Summers Humphrey on January 1, 1860, in Vermilion County, Illinois.( Illinois Marriages, 1851-1900 Record, Name: George Olders, Gender: Male, Spouse, Name: Mary S. Humphrey, Marriage Date: Jan 01, 1860, Marriage County: Vermilion, Comments: This record can be found at the County Court Records, Film # 1298746 - 1298749.)
George enlisted for service during the Civil War on April 26, 1864, at Danville, Illinois. He served in Company K of the 135th Regiment, Illinois Volunteer Infantry. The State if Illinois website lists him as Older, George, Private, Danville, June 6, 1864, Mustered out Sep 28, 1864. He filed for a military pension in 1890. The National Archives cannot locate any of his records. George Jr. died September 26, 1920, in Portland, Oregon.(Bingler, pages 33-4; Oregon Death Index, 1903-98 Record, Name: Older, George, County: Portland, Death Date: 26 Sep 1920, Certificate: 2470.)
Samuel Clarence Older, the youngest son, was born January 15, 1837, in Ontario, Canada.(Bingler, page 35.) He married Jane Eliza Baird on August 14, 1856, in Ross County, Ohio.(Bingler, page 35, Samuel Older entry, Ross County, Ohio, marriage index.)
Mary Jane Older was born in 1840 in Ohio. She married Johnson Coe on October 13, 1867 in Athens County, Ohio. (Bingler, page 36, Mary J. Older entry, Marvin Fletcher & Beverly Schumacher, Marriage Records, 1865-1880: Athens County, Ohio, Athens County Historical Society, 1981.)
Fanny Elizabeth Older was born August 12, 1843, in Ohio.( Bingler, page 36.) She died January 11, 1914, in Russelville, Brown County, Ohio. She married William M. G. Wamsley on February 20, 1867, in Bentonville, Adams Co., Ohio.(Bingler, page 36. Frances Wamsley death certificate, Ohio death records (1914) Brown County, Ohio, Certificate #427.) Sarah (Gilbert) Older died sometime between 1843 and 1847.(43)
George Older then married Deborah Ann (Boyer) Nye on October 2, 1847, in Ross County, Ohio.(Bingler, page 6, George Older entry, Ross County, Ohio, marriages.) She was the daughter of Richard Boyer and Rachel Frew.(Bingler, page 6.) Deborah Ann Boyer was born March 10, 1828, in Ohio.(Bingler, page 6.) She married first Jacob Nye on February 19, 1843, in Ross County, Ohio.(Bingler, page 6.) George Older and Deborah Nye were the parents of one child:
Margaret Louisa Ann Older was born May 26, 1849, in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio. She died March 22, 1927, in Little River, Rice County, Kansas. She married Truman Myron Van Norman on February 19, 1868, at Henderson County, Illinois.(Bingler, page 37, Margaret A. L. Older entry, Illinois Marriage Index, marriage recorded in Henderson County, Illinois, volume B, page 33.)
Shortly after the birth of Ann, George Older died July 3, 1849, in Cincinnati, Ohio, during the Cholera epidemic.(Bingler, page 6, George Older obituary, in newspaper obituary abstracts, Fairfield Trace (Winter 1990): 11.) The Lancaster, Ohio, newspaper reported his death. The obituary gave George's age as 45 years old.
All six of the children of George Older Sr. were living in different households at the time of the 1850 census. No 1850 census record was found for George Older Jr.
Ann Older was living in the Richard Boyer household in 1850.( 1850 U. S. Census for Ohio, Ross County, Huntington Township, Page 313, Roll M432_725, dwelling #134, family #136.)
Richard Boyer was the father of Deborah BoyerNye, the second wife of George Older.(Bingler, page 6.)
Ann Older married Truman Myron Van Norman on February 19, 1868, in Henderson County, Illinois.(Bingler, page 37, Margaret A. L. Older entry, Illinois Marriage Index, marriage recorded in Henderson County, Illinois, volume B, page 33.) He was born August 15, 1845, in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.(Bingler, correspondence with Curtis L. Older.) Margaret Louisa Ann Older died March 22, 1927, in Little River, Rice County, Kansas.(Bingler, page 37.) Margaret Luisa Ann was mentioned in the 1918 obituary of Emma Jane Price as a surviving sister, Anne Van Norman.(Bingler, correspondence with Curtis L. Older).
George's widow, Deborah A. (Boyer) (Nye) Older, married William Price on September 10, 1854.(Bingler, page 6.) Deborah died July 8, 1903, in Norman, Cleveland County, Oklahoma.(Bingler, page 6.)
There should be no 1830 or 1850 United States Federal Census records for George Older. He did not leave England until 1835 and he died in 1849. No 1840 Federal Census record for George Older has been found as well.
25) Samuel Older and Thomas Older, assumed to be brothers of George Older, had boarded the ship England at Portsmouth, England, on May 8, 1832, and disembarked on June 15, 1832, in Quebec, Canada.( The following record was compiled from "A List of Petworth Emigrants, 1832--1837," Part Two of Assisting Emigration to Upper Canada: The Petworth Project 1832--1837 by Wendy Cameron and Mary McDougall Maude (Montreal and Kingston: McGill- Queen's University Press 2000). The list summarizes available sources for information on families and individuals. England 1832, England, brig, A1, 320 tons, master Captain Lewis; superintendent J.C. Hale; sailed from Portsmouth (Spithead) 8 May 1832; arrived at Quebec 15 June 1832. In 1832, this ship was chartered by people in Wisborough Green working very closely with the Petworth Committee. Family names on that voyage included: Barberry (Burberry), Burchell, French, Goldring, Graffam (Grantham), Hook, Joyce (Joice), Mann, Older, Oler (Older), Saunders, Smart, Smithers, Southerton, Thaire (Thayre), and Tribe; See also the companion volume English Immigrant Voices: Labourers' Letters from Upper Canada in the 1830s, page 396 which lists Mr. Older and wife and 7 children and Thomas Older a single man.)
26) Samuel, Thomas, and George Older were part of the Petworth Emigration Scheme. The main concept of the Petworth Scheme was to pay people to leave England and to settle in Canada.(English Immigrant Voices, Labourers' Letters from Upper Canada in the 1830s, edited by Wendy Cameron, Sheila Haines, Mary McDougall Mauge, McGill-Queen's University Press, Montreal, 2000, Introduction.)
Samuel and Thomas Older continued on to Athens County, Ohio, after their arrival in Canada whereas George Older remained in Canada with his family for a time. 27) Samuel Older, Thomas Older, and a William Older were all heads of households in the 1840 census of York Township, Athens County, Ohio.(1840 U. S. Census for Ohio, Athens County, York Township, lists S. Older, T. Older, and W. Older.)
28) Samuel Older's baptismal record lists his parents as Samuel Holder &
Elizabeth Bishop.(Samuel Older's baptism was listed in the IGI [International Genealogical Index] as Samuel Holder christened 12 Feb 1792 Salehurst, Sussex, England. The parents were listed as Samuel Holder & Elizabeth Bishop.) Samuel Older died August 8, 1857, in Grand Rapids, Wood County, Ohio.(Samuel Older of Sussex, England and His descendants in America by Susan L. Bingler, CGRS, page 3.)
29) Thomas Older was christened November 12, 1809, in Wisborough Green, Sussex, England.(IGI record fro Thomas Older christened 12 Nov 1809 Wisborough Green, Sussex, England, with parents Samuel & Elizabeth Older.) The death certificate of Thomas Older gives his mother's name as Elizabeth Bishop.(Thomas Older death certificate, Fairfield Co., Ohio, death records, page 360, #9, FHL microfilm 0295271.) Unfortunately, no baptismal record has been found for George Older nor has one been found for William Older.(Samuel Older of Sussex, England and His descendants in America, page 3, footnote number 8, and footnote number 11.) It is upon this scenario that the parents of George Older are assumed to be Samuel Older Sr. and his wife Elizabeth Bishop.

These volumes were the fruit of a ten year research project in Canada and England, funded by the Jackson Foundation, the Jacksons themselves being descended from a family who emigrated under the Petworth scheme. If you are unable to obtain the books, we could copy the relevant sources for you, either by photocopying or scanning. I can let you have an estimate of the cost should it be necessary.

24) George Older married Sarah Gilbert in England.(32) No information on her parents is known. George Older and Sarah Gilbert were the parents of five children:
Emily Older, a daughter, was born October 11, 1833, in England.(Samuel Older of Sussex, England, Bingler, page 7.) She married Andrew Harrington on August 28, 1853, in Ross County, Ohio.( Andrew Arrington entry, Ross County, Ohio, marriage index.) Emily (Older) Harringtondied in 1925 in Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon.
George Older Junior, the oldest son, was born September 13, 1835, "on the ocean".(Bingler, page 33.) George married Mary Summers Humphrey on January 1, 1860, in Vermilion County, Illinois.( Illinois Marriages, 1851-1900 Record, Name: George Olders, Gender: Male, Spouse, Name: Mary S. Humphrey, Marriage Date: Jan 01, 1860, Marriage County: Vermilion, Comments: This record can be found at the County Court Records, Film # 1298746 - 1298749.) George enlisted for service during the Civil War on April 26, 1864, at Danville, Illinois. He served in Company K of the 135th Regiment, Illinois Volunteer Infantry. The State if Illinois website lists him as Older, George, Private, Danville, June 6, 1864, Mustered out Sep 28, 1864. He filed for a military pension in 1890. The National Archives cannot locate any of his records. George Jr. died September 26, 1920, in Portland, Oregon.(Bingler, pages 33-4; Oregon Death Index, 1903-98 Record, Name: Older, George, County: Portland, Death Date: 26 Sep 1920, Certificate: 2470.)
Samuel Clarence Older, the youngest son, was born January 15, 1837, in Ontario, Canada.(Bingler, page 35.) He married Jane Eliza Baird on August 14, 1856, in Ross County, Ohio.(Bingler, page 35, Samuel Older entry, Ross County, Ohio, marriage index.)
Mary Jane Older was born in 1840 in Ohio. She married Johnson Coe on October 13, 1867 in Athens County, Ohio. (Bingler, page 36, Mary J. Older entry, Marvin Fletcher & Beverly Schumacher, Marriage Records, 1865-1880: Athens County, Ohio, Athens County Historical Society, 1981.)
Fanny Elizabeth Older was born August 12, 1843, in Ohio.( Bingler, page 36.) She died January 11, 1914, in Russelville, Brown County, Ohio. She married William M. G. Wamsley on February 20, 1867, in Bentonville, Adams Co., Ohio.(Bingler, page 36. Frances Wamsley death certificate, Ohio death records (1914) Brown County, Ohio, Certificate #427.)
Sarah (Gilbert) Older died sometime between 1843 and 1847.(43) George Older then married Deborah Ann (Boyer) Nye on October 2, 1847, in Ross County, Ohio.(Bingler, page 6, George Older entry, Ross County, Ohio, marriages.) She was the daughter of Richard Boyer and Rachel Frew.(Bingler, page 6.) Deborah Ann Boyer was born March 10, 1828, in Ohio.(Bingler, page 6.) She married first Jacob Nye on February 19, 1843, in Ross County, Ohio.(Bingler, page 6.)
George Older and Deborah Nye were the parents of one child:
Margaret Louisa Ann Older was born May 26, 1849, in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio. She died March 22, 1927, in Little River, Rice County, Kansas. She married Truman Myron Van Norman on February 19, 1868, at Henderson County, Illinois.(Bingler, page 37, Margaret A. L. Older entry, Illinois Marriage Index, marriage recorded in Henderson County, Illinois, volume B, page 33.)
Shortly after the birth of Ann, George Older died July 3, 1849, in Cincinnati, Ohio, during the Cholera epidemic.(Bingler, page 6, George Older obituary, in newspaper obituary abstracts, Fairfield Trace (Winter 1990): 11.)
The Lancaster, Ohio, newspaper reported his death. The obituary gave George's age as 45 years old.
All six of the children of George Older Sr. were living in different households at the time of the 1850 census. No 1850 census record was found for George Older Jr.
Ann Older was living in the Richard Boyer household in 1850.( 1850 U. S. Census for Ohio, Ross County, Huntington Township, Page 313, Roll M432_725, dwelling #134, family #136.) Richard Boyer was the father of Deborah Boyer Nye, the second wife of George Older.(Bingler, page 6.) Ann Older married Truman Myron Van Norman on February 19, 1868, in Henderson County, Illinois.(Bingler, page 37, Margaret A. L. Older entry, Illinois Marriage Index, marriage recorded in Henderson County, Illinois, volume B, page 33.) He was born August 15, 1845, in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio.(Bingler, correspondence with Curtis L. Older.) Margaret Louisa Ann Older died March 22, 1927, in Little River, Rice County, Kansas.(Bingler, page 37.) Margaret Luisa Ann was mentioned in the 1918 obituary of Emma Jane Price as a surviving sister, Anne Van Norman.(Bingler, correspondence with Curtis L. Older).
George's widow, Deborah A. (Boyer) (Nye) Older, married William Price on September 10, 1854.(Bingler, page 6.) Deborah died July 8, 1903, in Norman, Cleveland County, Oklahoma.(Bingler, page 6.)
There should be no 1830 or 1850 United States Federal Census records for George Older. He did not leave England until 1835 and he died in 1849. No 1840 Federal Census record for George Older has been found as well.
25) Samuel Older and Thomas Older, assumed to be brothers of George Older, had boarded the ship England at Portsmouth, England, on May 8, 1832, and disembarked on June 15, 1832, in Quebec, Canada.( The following record was compiled from "A List of Petworth Emigrants, 1832--1837," Part Two of Assisting Emigration to Upper Canada: The Petworth Project 1832--1837 by Wendy Cameron and Mary McDougall Maude (Montreal and Kingston: McGill- Queen's University Press 2000). The list summarizes available sources for information on families and individuals. England 1832, England, brig, A1, 320 tons, master Captain Lewis; superintendent J.C. Hale; sailed from Portsmouth (Spithead) 8 May 1832; arrived at Quebec 15 June 1832. In 1832, this ship was chartered by people in Wisborough Green working very closely with the Petworth Committee. Family names on that voyage included: Barberry (Burberry), Burchell, French, Goldring, Graffam (Grantham), Hook, Joyce (Joice), Mann, Older, Oler (Older), Saunders, Smart, Smithers, Southerton, Thaire (Thayre), and Tribe; See also the companion volume English Immigrant Voices: Labourers' Letters from Upper Canada in the 1830s, page 396 which lists Mr. Older and wife and 7 children and Thomas Older a single man.)
26) Samuel, Thomas, and George Older were part of the Petworth Emigration Scheme. The main concept of the Petworth Scheme was to pay people to leave England and to settle in Canada.(English Immigrant Voices, Labourers' Letters from Upper Canada in the 1830s, edited by Wendy Cameron, Sheila Haines, Mary McDougall Mauge, McGill-Queen's University Press,
Montreal, 2000, Introduction.)
27) Samuel and Thomas Older continued on to Athens County, Ohio, after their arrival in Canada whereas George Older remained in Canada with his family for a time. Samuel Older, Thomas Older, and a William Older were all heads of households in the 1840 census of York Township, Athens County, Ohio.(1840 U. S. Census for Ohio, Athens County, York Township, lists S. Older,
T. Older, and W. Older.)
28) Samuel Older's baptismal record lists his parents as Samuel Holder & Elizabeth Bishop.(Samuel Older's baptism was listed in the IGI [International Genealogical Index] as Samuel Holder christened 12 Feb 1792 Salehurst, Sussex, England. The parents were listed as Samuel Holder & Elizabeth Bishop.) Samuel Older died August 8, 1857, in Grand Rapids, Wood County, Ohio.(Samuel Older of Sussex, England and His descendants in America by Susan L. Bingler, CGRS, page 3.)
Thomas Older was christened November 12, 1809, in Wisborough Green, Sussex, England.(IGI record fro Thomas Older christened 12 Nov 1809 Wisborough Green, Sussex, England, with parents Samuel & Elizabeth Older.) The death certificate of 29) Thomas Older gives his mother's name as Elizabeth Bishop.(Thomas Older death certificate, Fairfield Co., Ohio, death records, page 360, #9, FHL microfilm 0295271.) Unfortunately, no baptismal record has been found for George Older nor has one been found for William Older.(Samuel Older of Sussex, England and His descendants in America, page 3, footnote number 8, and footnote number 11.) It is upon this scenario that the parents of George Older are assumed to be Samuel Older Sr. and his wife Elizabeth Bishop.

40 Charles Worth
born: 17 June 1761, Nantucket, Massachusetts, USA
died: After 1850, probably Indiana or Missouri, USA
noteworthy: Mayflower descendant
ORIGINAL SOURCE MATERIAL to support the RELATIONSHIP between
CHARLES WORTH and his son JOHN WORTH
1) Letter from John Worth (New Ross, Indiana) to Hiram C. Worth (Greensboro, North Carolina), dated 1 February 1886. Original letter at Hege Library, Friends Historical Collection, Guilford College, Greensboro, NC. A typewritten transcript of the letter dated was made in January 1915 from original letter on loan from Laura D. Worth of Guilford College to Herbert Folger, California Mayflower Society Historian. A copy of the transcript was in the lineage documents of Arlie L. Rigsbee, General Number 4071, General Society of Mayflower Descendants, Plymouth, Massachusetts. The names of the nine children of Charles Worth listed in the 01 February 1886 letter written by John Worth which was sent from New Ross, Indiana, matches the names of the nine children of Charles and Elizabeth Worth listed in the Folger Manuscript.
2) Folger Manuscript, Nantucket Historical Association, Nantucket, Massachusetts, Collection 118, Book 7, page 142, which lists a Charles Worth as the son of Joseph and Judith, the marriage of Charles Worth and Elizabeth Frye/Frey, and the names of the nine children of Charles and Elizabeth. The record also identifies the parents of Elizabeth Frye/Frey as Michael and Nancy Frye/Frey. The document was recorded prior to 1850. The first child of Charles and Elizabeth Worth is listed as Lydia and the record indicates she was born in 1799, the same year Charles was removed from the Quaker Church for marrying out of unity. The Nantucket Quakers who moved to Guilford County, North Carolina, in the late 1700s sent reports of family births, marriages, deaths, etc. back to Nantucket where they were recorded. The record also identifies the family as "Descendants of the New Garden Emigrants." New Garden, North Carolina, was at the present site of Guilford College in Greensboro, North Carolina.
3) 1914 Affidavit of Marshal Benton Rigsbee which is part of the application papers to the Society of Mayflower Descendants of Plymouth, Massachusetts, for Arlie L. Rigsbee. This affidavit states his knowledge of the descendants of Charles Worth. Affidavit states that the grandfather of Marshal Benton Rigsbee was John Rigsbee who was born in North Carolina on the 12th day of August 1793 and died in Rush County, Indiana on the 30th day of May 1851, and was married to Lydia Worth who was born in Guilford County, NC on the 20th day of September 1799 and died on the 22nd day of September 1873. Affiant also believes that Charles Worth was born in Nantucket, Massachusetts, and was married in North Carolina to Elizabeth Frye/Frey and had the following children: Lydia, Levi, Seth, Elizabeth, Rachael, Paul, Lucinda and Rhoda. He omits John Worth. Affiant states that Rachael Worth married Jehu Rigsbee. The names of the children of Charles and Elizabeth Worth agrees with both the Folger Manuscript and the 01 February 1886 letter of John Worth, excepting the fact that the Affidavit does not list a John Worth as a son of Charles and Elizabeth Worth.
4) Various census records related to Charles Worth, John Worth, and Seth Worth: Census record of 1850 for Indiana, Davies County, Van Buren Township, p. 187, which lists a Charles Worth in the household of a Seth Worth. The 1850 census record for the Seth Worth household lists the age of Charles Worth as 90 years. This would agree with the birth year for Charles at Nantucket, Massachusetts, as 1761; the 1840 U.S. Census of Indiana, Davies County, page 64, which lists a family for John Worth; the 1840 U.S. Census for Rush County, Jackson Township, page 399, which lists the Charles Worth household and appears one line below the household of a Seth Worth. 1850 Census of Indiana, Rush County, Jackson Township, page 556, which lists a family for John Worth. These census records support the Folger manuscript and the 01 February 1886 letter of John Worth as to John Worth having a brother named Seth and a father named Charles. John Worth also named one of his sons Seth.

Photograph of tombstone taken 1 July 2000 by Curtis L. Older.
23) Mary Luella Hartman, daughter of William Hartman and Elizabeth Nicholas Hartman, was born 21 July 1863 in Ford County, Illinois. See Illinois Marriage Records, 1851-1900, Vermilion County, Danville, 1882, Joseph Gouty and Mary L. Hartman, married 28 September 1882. Father's name: Wm. Hartman. Mother's name: Elizabeth Nicholas. Witnesses to the marriage were a Joseph Nicholas and Sarah A. Short.
24) Joseph Gouty and Mary Luella Hartman were the parents of Robert William Gouty, husband of Ethel Belle Fox. The Ethel Belle (Fox) Gouty Family Bible in the possession of Curtis Lynn Older states the following on a page headed "Family Register": Luella Hartman Gouty born 1863 – July 21 and Joseph Gouty born 1860 – Jan – 6. Copies of pages from the Ethel Belle Fox Family Bible are in a CD-rom disc entitled Fox's Gap in Maryland, which is at the Frederick County Historical Society, Frederick, Maryland.
25) Mary Luella Hartman was living with her mother's parents in 1870. The 1870 U. S. Census for Indiana, Vermillion County, Highland Township, lists Nicklas, Wm., age 61, Nicklas, Mahala, age 55. Nicklas, Joseph N. age 22, Hartman, Mary L., age 6, born in Illinois, Hartman, Ezra E. age 3, born in Indiana.

She is listed as head of household with real estate valued at $1800 and personal property worth $150. Her youngest daughter, "Serrelda" [sic] is living with her as are her son Andrew J. and his wife, Ellen. Both Andrew J. and Ellen are listed as born in Ohio. Andrew J. Hartman married Elizabeth E. Gott 11 November 1869 in Fountain Co., IN.
27) Zerelda Hartman, daughter of George and Elizabeth Royer Hartman, married Joshua Marksbury in Fountain Co., IN, on 7 November 1872.
28) See Fountain Co., Indiana, Deed Book 35, p. 383, dated 26 March 1874, Elizabeth Hartman to Zerrelda Marksbury, et. al. Attested by "Abram Royer" and "Susan Royer". This deed effectively took the place of a will. Joshua and Zerelda Marksbury agreed in the deed to care for Elizabeth for the remainder of her life in exchange for 75 acres of land.
29) Abraham Royer, who attested to the will from Elizabeth Hartman to Zerrelda Marksbury et. al., must have been the brother of Elizabeth Royer Hartman. His tombstone at Covington, Indiana, indicates he was born 14 September 1811 and died 28 June 1893. A death record for Adella C. Haupt indicates her father was Abraham Royer, her father's place of birth was Rockingham Co., VA; she was born 17 March 1853 in Covington, Indiana; her mother was born in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania and her mother's name was Susanna Wertz. See Illinois Deaths and Stillbirths, 1916-1947 for Adella C. Haupt.
30) Campbell Cemetery records, Fountain Co., Indiana: "Hartman, Elizabeth, wife of George Hartman d. 24 April 1886 age 88y 10m". Since she was born 22 Oct 1797, her date of death or age is misstated.

11) George Hartman appears in the 1830 Rockingham Co., Virginia census records. There were several Harshbarger listings in the 1830 Census records for Rockingham Co., Virginia, and it is likely some of the Harshbarger family moved to Indiana with the Hartmans. Sarah Hartman, a sister of William, married Elija Harshbarger on 1 October 1840 in Fountain Co., Indiana. See Indiana Marriages, 1810-2001.
12) In 1840 we find George Hartman, age 40-49 in Fountain Co., IN, with 2 males under 5, 1 male 10-14, 1 female 40-49, 1 female under 5, 1 female 5-9, 1 female 10-14, and 3 females 15-19.
13) See History of Vermillion County, Indiana, Biographical Sketches, Gilbert L. Mock, page 403. "November 6, 1881, Mr. Mock married Rebecca (Hartman) Deyo, daughter of George Hartman, and widow of Nelson Deyo. She had been twice married before her marriage to Mr. Mock, her first husband being David Rennager. She was born in Virginia in 1820, and was about twelve years of age when her parents removed to Indiana. Her father died in 1843, and her mother April 15, 1886, the latter being eighty-eight years old at the time of her death. Of a family of three sons and nine daughters born to Mr. and Mrs. Hartman, two sons and seven daughters are living – Priscilla, Rebecca, Polly, Sally, William, Christina, Andrew J., Isabella and Zerilda. The deceased are Elizabeth, Ann, Nancy and John A."
13) George Hartman died in Fountain County, IN, in September 1843. Letters of Administration, Fountain County Court, Indiana, p.414, 18 Sept 1843, Deceased: George Hartman, Administrator: Isaac Harshbarger. Probate records list his heirs as Nancy Caroline, Elizabeth Anne (Ann), William, Andrew Jackson, John Alexander, Christina (Christiana), Isabel, and Zerelda Hartman, all minor children. Priscilla, Mary, Rebecca and Sarah are married. William Hartman and Elizabeth Anne Hartman were minor heirs "over the age of fourteen years", and chose Thomas Lyons as their guardian. The Court then appointed Mr. Lyons as guardian for all the minor heirs.
14) The guardian's report dated 14 July 1854 lists Andrew J. Hartman, Christina (Hartman) Saltzgaver, and Nancy Caroline (Hartman) Harshbarger. There is no mention of John Alexander. He is probably the John Alexander (Hartman) living with James and Elizabeth Ann Cassteel on the 1850 census. Isabel and Zerelda are also not mentioned in the report. No later report has been found.
15) William Hartman was born 5 September 1825 in Rockingham County, Virginia. William Hartman tombstone, Hicks Cemetery, Perrysville, Indiana. "William Hartman died May 31, 1896, aged 70 years, 8 months, 26 days".
16) William Hartman was living in the Elija and Sarah (Hartman) Harshbarger household at the time of the 1850 Wabash Township, Fountain Co., IN census. William was listed as age 23 and born in Virginia. William was listed as a farmer and apparently owned the land that Elijah Harshbarger, also listed as a farmer, was farming. The value of the real estate of William Hartman was shown as $200 while there was no real estate value associated with Elijah Harshbarger.
17) William Hartman married Emily Deyo in Warren County, Indiana, on 12 October 1853. Indiana State Library, Genealogy Database, Last Name: HARTMAN, First Name: WILLIAM, Spouse - Last Name: DEYO, Spouse - First Name: EMILY, County: Warren, Date: 10-12-1853. A sister of William Hartman, Rebecca (formerly Reinicker/Rennager) married Nelson Deyo on 4 August 1852 in Vermilion County, Illinois. (Vermilion Co., IL, is adjacent Vermillion Co., IN, and many individuals would go over to Danville, Illinois, Vermilion Co., to get married.)
18) Emily Deyo Hartman died 24 December 1859, probably in Vermillion Co, Indiana. She was buried in Upper Mound Cemetery in Warren County, Indiana. Her parents, Ozias and Elizabeth (Henderson) Deyo also were buried at Upper Mound Cemetery in Warren Co., IN.

21) Elizabeth Nicholas was 20 years old and living in the household of her parents in 1860. The parents of Elizabeth Nicholas were William Nicholas and his wife Mahala Shute. 1860 U. S. Census for Indiana Vermillion County, Highland Township, Name: William Nichlas, age 52, born in Virginia, Mahala, age 45, born in Ohio, Elizabeth, age 20, born in Indiana, Susan, age 13, born in Indiana, Joseph, age 12, born in Indiana, Isaiah Huntingdon, age 15, born in Ohio, Roll: M653_303, Page: 72.
22) Elizabeth (Nicholas) Hartman died 23 November 1866 about four years after she married William Hartman. Elizabeth Nicholas tombstone, Hicks Cemetery, at Perrysville, IN: "Elizabeth Nicholas wife of William Hartman died Novm 23, 1866, age 26 years, 2 months, 12 days". Photograph of tombstone taken 1 July 2000 by Curtis L. Older.
23) Mary Luella Hartman, daughter of William Hartman and Elizabeth Nicholas Hartman, was born 21 July 1863 in Ford County, Illinois. See Illinois Marriage Records, 1851-1900, Vermilion County, Danville, 1882, Joseph Gouty and Mary L. Hartman, married 28 September 1882. Father's name: Wm. Hartman. Mother's name: Elizabeth Nicholas. Witnesses to the marriage were a Joseph Nicholas and Sarah A. Short.
24) Joseph Gouty and Mary Luella Hartman were the parents of Robert William Gouty, husband of Ethel Belle Fox. The Ethel Belle (Fox) Gouty Family Bible in the possession of Curtis Lynn Older states the following on a page headed "Family Register": Luella Hartman Gouty born 1863 – July 21 and Joseph Gouty born 1860 – Jan – 6. Copies of pages from the Ethel Belle Fox Family Bible are in a CD-rom disc entitled Fox's Gap in Maryland, which is at the Frederick County Historical Society, Frederick, Maryland.
25) Mary Luella Hartman was living with her mother's parents in 1870. The 1870 U. S. Census for Indiana, Vermillion County, Highland Township, lists Nicklas, Wm., age 61, Nicklas, Mahala, age 55. Nicklas, Joseph N. age 22, Hartman, Mary L., age 6, born in Illinois, Hartman, Ezra E. age 3, born in Indiana.
26) In 1870, Elizabeth Hartman, age 73, is listed in the Wabash Township, Fountain Co., Indiana, census. She is listed as head of household with real estate valued at $1800 and personal property worth $150. Her youngest daughter, "Serrelda" [sic] is living with her as are her son Andrew J. and his wife, Ellen. Both Andrew J. and Ellen are listed as born in Ohio. Andrew J. Hartman married Elizabeth E. Gott 11 November 1869 in Fountain Co., IN.
27) Zerelda Hartman, daughter of George and Elizabeth Royer Hartman, married Joshua Marksbury in Fountain Co., IN, on 7 November 1872.
28) See Fountain Co., Indiana, Deed Book 35, p. 383, dated 26 March 1874, Elizabeth Hartman to Zerrelda Marksbury, et. al. Attested by "Abram Royer" and "Susan Royer". This deed effectively took the place of a will. Joshua and Zerelda Marksbury agreed in the deed to care for Elizabeth for the remainder of her life in exchange for 75 acres of land.
29) Abraham Royer, who attested to the will from Elizabeth Hartman to Zerrelda Marksbury et. al., must have been the brother of Elizabeth Royer Hartman. His tombstone at Covington, Indiana, indicates he was born 14 September 1811 and died 28 June 1893. A death record for Adella C. Haupt indicates her father was Abraham Royer, her father's place of birth was Rockingham Co., VA; she was born 17 March 1853 in Covington, Indiana; her mother was born in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania and her mother's name was Susanna Wertz. See Illinois Deaths and Stillbirths, 1916-1947 for Adella C. Haupt.
30) Campbell Cemetery records, Fountain Co., Indiana: "Hartman, Elizabeth, wife of George Hartman d. 24 April 1886 age 88y 10m". Since she was born 22 Oct 1797, her date of death or age is misstated. History of Vermillion County, Indiana, Biographical Sketches, Gilbert L. Mock, page 463, Elizabeth (Royer) Hartman died 15 April 1886, age 88.

Therefore, his date of birth was 15 November 1775; Pennsylvania German Church Records of Births, Baptisms, Marriages, Burials, etc., Clearfield Publishing, Volume 3, page 177, Church Record of the Great Swamp Reformed Congregation, Lower Milford Township, Lehigh County, Pa., Baptisms, Children: Michael, 15 November 1775, Parents: Mich. Helligas, Sponsors: Joh. Cunius and wife. It seems reasonable to assume Michael was baptised shortly after he was born. The most unlikely statement of his birth is found in Samuel Kriebel Brecht, editor, The Genealogical Record of the Schwenkfelder Families: Seekers of Religious Liberty Who Fled from Silesia to Saxony and thence to Pennsylvania in the Years 1731 to 1737. (Pennsburg, Pa.: Rand McNally & Company, 1923), page 475, [38-35] Anna Yeakel. This source indicates he was born 23 February 1764. That date seems very doubtful. A notation on page 475 indicates: "Data of Michael Hillegass Family obtained
from letters in H. K. Gerhard Collection [S. H. L. = Schwenkfelder Historical Library], written by Jacob Hillegass, November 4, 1839 to Jacob Kriebel." The S.H.L. has not been
able to find the 1839 letter but did supply Curtis Lynn Older with images of an 1840 letter which contains information on Michael Hillegas and Susannah Hillegas and is written in German. The Schwenkfelder Library staff graciously translated the letter into English and was received by Curtis Lynn Older from them on 21 November 2017.
2) Michael Hillegas Junior married Anna Yeakel, daughter of Jeremiah Yeakel and his wife, Susannah Wiegner. (Schwenkfelder Families, page 471, [38-17] Jeremiah Yeakel and page 475, [38-35] Anna Yeakel); The Fox Genealogy including the Metherd, Benner, and Leiter descendants, giving biographies of the first and second generations, with sketches of the third generation, compiled by Daniel Gebhart Fox, 1914.

3) Michael Hillegas Junior received a payment of $253.33 from the estate of Jeremiah Yeakel as payment for his wife Anna's share of her father's estate. (Jeremiah Yeakel Estate Papers, File Number 211-325, Case #243, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, 1818.) Payments from the Jeremiah Yeakel estate were also made to the husbands of the other married daughters of Jeremiah Yeakel.
4) Letter from Michael Hillegas Junior at Montgomery County, Ohio, to Mr. Jacob Kriebel, Upper Milford Township, Lehigh County, State of Pennsylvania, dated 03 August 1840, in the Schwenkfelder Library & Heritage Center, 105 Seminary St., Pennsburg, PA. The letter was dictated by Michael and written by Susannah due to the
fact Michael was partially blind. The letter states the dates of birth and death of Michael's wife, Anna, and indicates that his two youngest children, Jacob and Susanna, are still living with him and are unmarried. See www.schwenkfelder.com

6) Michael Hillegass was a farmer and tanner who lived in Hosensack, Pennsylvania and moved to Centreville, Ohio, in 1816. (Schwenkfelder Families, page 475, [38-35] Anna Yeakel. The 1810 and 1820 federal census records support a move from
Pennsylvania to Ohio sometime in the decade between those years.
7) Michael Hillegas Junior died 11 March 1859 in Miamisburg, Montgomery County, Ohio and was buried in the Gebhart or St. John Cemetery in Miamisburg. The tombstone of Michael Hillegas Junior reads, "Michael Hilligass died Mar. 11, 1859 aged 83 ys. 3 m. 26 d." Photograph taken by Curtis Lynn Older.
8) Anna Yeakel Hillegas died 17 July 1840 and was buried alongside her husband. Anna Yeakel Hillegas is buried in the Gebhart or St. John's Cemetery in Miamisburg, Ohio. Her tombstone reads, "Anna wife of Michael Hilligass died July 17, 1840 aged 56 Ys. 8m. 27 D." The tombstone date of birth does not agree with the birth date given in Schwenkfelder Families, page 475, Anna Yeakel.
9) Susannah Hillegas married John L. Fox. Ohio County Marriages, 1774-1993, Michael Hillegoss – father, Susannah Hillegoss – bride, John L. Fox – groom. Film Number 001030835, the marriage record includes the notation, "her father Michael Hillegass." Date appears to be 1st November 1845; Susannah Hillegas married John L. Fox on 11 November 1845 in Miami Township, Montgomery County, Ohio, by Reverend George Long. (The Fox Genealogy by D. G. Fox, page 94, Sketch of John L. Fox); Susannah Hilligass and John L. Fox marriage record, source #492.000, Yates Publications; John L. Fox obituary, The Hoosier State newspaper, Newport, Indiana, Wednesday 11 January 1899, page 1, column 3.
10) The tombstone of Susannah Hillegas reads as follows: "Susannah Hiligass wife of John L. Fox died Aug 11, 1894 aged 74Y. 8M. 11D."
11) Letters in the H. K. Gerhard Collection at the Schwenkfelder Historical Library written by Jacob Hillegass, 04 November 1839, to Jacob Kriebel. (The Genealogical Record of the Schwenkfelder Families, edited by Samuel Kriebel Brecht, Rand McNally & Company, 1923, page 475, [38-35] Anna Yeakel). Unfortunately, as of 21 November 2017, the Schwenkfelder Historical Library was not able to find the actual letter written in 1839 to Jacob Kriebel. The library did have the actual letter written to Jacob Kriebel on 03 August 1840 by Michael Hillegas Junior, as dictated to and actually written by Susanna Hillegas.

3. Cemetery data shows that Gouty family members were buried about 1/2 mile from Thomas Gouty farm land.
Old Baptist Cemetery tombstones indicate three other Gouty family members are buried there besides Pritchard Gouty. (Source - Illiana Genealogist, Vol. 26, No. 4, December 1990, page 111; Geneal. PAM. 977.201 Vuncat. No. 9). This cemetery is within a half mile of land owned by Thomas Gouty and Henry Gouty in Highland Township, Vermillion Co., Indiana.
a. Minerva Gouty, d/o H. & R, Jan. 31, 1841, 3y 11m 6d

c. Elizabeth, w/o J., Jan 29, 1845, 43y 1m 10d
She was the wife of John Gouty whom he married in Pickaway Co., OH.

4. John, Henry, Thomas, Zachariah, Delilah, Elizabeth, and Polly Gouty were the proper ages to be sons and daughters of Pritchett Gouty.

The best available information indicates Pritchett had one son born in 1800, one son born in 1802, one son born in 1806 or 1807, one son born in 1812, one daughter born in 1793, one daughter born in 1796, and one daughter born in 1805.

a. 1810 Caroline Counry, MD, census, Pritchett Gouty hh:
2 males under 10 Henry and Thomas born 1802 to 1807
1 male 10 thru 15 John born in 1800
1 male 26 thru 44 Pritchett born 1765
1 female under 10 Delilah born 1805
1 female 10 thru 15 Elizabeth born 1796
1 female 16 thru 25 Polly born 1793

2 males 16 thru 25 John born 1800 and Henry born 1802
1 male 45 and over Pritchett born 1765
2 females under 10 unknown
1 female 26 thru 44 Mary Donavan Gouty, wife of Pritchett

5. Thomas Gouty lived in the John Gouty household in the 1830 census, probably because Thomas did not own land in Vermillion Co., IN, until Jan. 5, 1831.
1830 Indiana census, Vermillion Co., Highland Township, John Gouty hh, 2 males age 20 to 30. These two males should be John Gouty and Thomas Gouty.

6. The 1840 Vermillion Co., IN, census indicates Thomas, Henry, John and Zachariah lived near each other.
The 1840 Highland Township Vermillion Co., IN, census lists four Gouty brothers on the same page:
Thomas Goutty age 30 to under 40 (he was born 1806 or 1807)
Henry Goutty age 30 to under 40 (he was born about 1802)
Zacariah Goutty age 20 to under 30 (he was born in 1812)
John Goutty age 40 to under 50 (he was born in 1800)

The 1850 census, Highland Township Vermillion Co., IN, indicates:
Zachariah Gouty, age 35, born in Ohio, wife Minerva.
Thomas Gouty, age 44, born in MD.
Henry Gouty, age 48, born in MD, wife Rebecca born in OH, son Thomas age 17,
son Zachariah age 13, daughter Elizabeth age 10. Living with the family is
a female age 6 named Eliza Jane Cossey.

The 1850 Vermilion Co., Illinois, census lists:
John Gouty, age 50, born in MD, wife Margaret.

CONCLUSION
Thomas, John, Henry, and Elizabeth Gouty were all born in Maryland according to census records. Pritchett, John, Henry, Elizabeth, Delilah, and Polly Gouty all married in Pickaway Co., OH, according to marriage records. John, Henry, Thomas, and Zachariah Gouty lived near each other in Highland Township, Vermillion Co., IN, according to 1840 census records. Children of John and Henry Gouty were buried at the Old Baptist Cemetery in Highland Township, Vermillion Co., IN, which is the burial location for Pritchett Gouty. The Old Baptist Cemetery is located about a half mile from land owned by Thomas Gouty. Census records for John, Henry, Thomas, Zachariah, Elizabeth, Delilah, and Polly support the conclusion they were the correct age to be children of Pritchett Gouty. Land records indicate John, Henry, and Thomas Gouty owned land very near each other in Vermillion Co., IN. Given their physical proximity and the time at which these Gouty family members were in Maryland, Ohio, and Indiana, it is very highly probable Pritchett Gouty was the father of Thomas Gouty.

Elias Gouty (son of Thomas) was Dale's grandfather. Lewis was Dale's father. Dale lives in the homeplace." The family name is correctly spelled Kerr but is often found to be written as Carr, perhaps because the family pronounced the name using an “a” instead of an “e”.

8) The children of Thomas Gouty and Nancy included Clarissa Gouty, born July 5, 1832 in Highland, Vermillion, Indiana, and died April 7, 1875, in Deerfield, Vernon, Missouri. She married John Sampson Chezem (1830-1879) and had a child named Sarah Ellen Chezem, 1854-1931). Undoubtedly Clarissa Gouty was named after the only sister of her mother. Clarissa Kerr was born September 27, 1813, and that she died February 11, 1880. She married Isaac Demorest, his second wife, on October 24, 1833, probably in Franklin County, Ohio.(per John H.

Is Nancy Carr, the wife of Thomas Gouty, the daughter of Samuel Kerr of Franklin, OH? Sons of Am. Rev. Supplemental Application for John Kerr
PROOF SUMMARY that Nancy Carr(Gen 6) is the daughter of Samuel Kerr(Gen 7) of Franklin, OH.
17) On 08 Oct 1823, the estate records of Samuel Kerr of Franklin, OH, lists his children Orson (age 18), Joseph (age 16), Nancy (age 14), Clarissa (age 11), Samuel (age 9), Robert (age 8), Elijah (age 6), and Jackson (age 4). On 11 Mar 1824, Benjamin Foster was appointed guardian of the minor heirs with Elijah Chenowith named as a security. 18) According to DAR RC#722981, Elijah Chenoweth married Rachel Foster, daughter of John Foster of MD, and died in Franklin Co, OH, on 05 Dec 1828.
19) According to DAR RC#842921, Benjamin Foster was a son of John Foster of MD, had a son born in Ohio in 1803, and died in Fountain Co, IN, on 01 Oct 1844.
20) The 1830 and 1840 census records of Fountain Co, IN, each show a household headed by Benjamin Foster.
21) The will of Elijah Chenoweth (Franklin Co, OH will book A, p196) names among his heirs, Thomas, Joseph, and Elijah Chenoweth. Elijah is named as the youngest son and, according to his gravestone, was born in 1806.
22) On 31 Jan 1828, Thomas and Joseph Chenoweth purchased land in Vermillion Co, IN. The 1850 census of Vermillion Co, IN, shows a Thomas Chenowith, age 49.
23) According to a biographical sketch of Orson Kerr found in “Biographical Record and Portrait Album of Tippecanoe, Indiana,” Orson was born in Pennsylvania, the son of Samuel Kerr. He lived in Franklin County, OH; moved to Fountain County, IN, in 1827; married Cynthia Clawson in 1828; and moved to Tippecanoe County, IN, in 1835. While this source is not well-­‐documented, it is corroborated by official documents and, significantly, was published in 1888, during Orson’s lifetime (see photo of grave marker). Fountain County marriage records confirm that Orson Carr married Cynthia Clawson in 1828. Fountain County 1830 census lists Orson Carr as a resident. Tippecanoe County 1840 census lists Orson Carr as a resident. Tippecanoe County 1850 census lists Orson Keer(44) born in Pennsylvania. Tippecanoe County 1860 census lists Orson Kerr(55) born in Pennsylvania.
24) In a biographical sketch of Robert Floyd Kerr from a compendium of biographical sketches of citizens of South Dakota, Andrew J. Kerr of Tippecanoe Co, IN, was named as the son of Samuel Kerr, having been born in Franklin Co, OH. The grave marker of Andrew J. Kerr in Tippecanoe Co, IN, shows a birthdate of 02 Apr 1819.
25) The 1850 census of Fountain Co, IN, shows a Samuel Carr, age 38, born in OH.
26) Vermillion, IN, marriage records show that Thomas Gouty married Nancy Carr in 1830, in a ceremony performed by Thomas Chenoweth. He later married Elizabeth Stutler on 31 May 1840.
27) A map of first landowners in Highland Twp, Fountain Co, IN, shows that Orson Kerr owned property bordering properties owned by Thomas Gouty and Thomas and Joseph Chenoweth.
28) The Vermillion County 1850 census, shows the household of Thomas Gouty. His oldest child, Clarissa(18), bears the name of Nancy Kerr’s only sister.

CONCLUSION
The Foster, Chenoweth, and Kerr families were closely related in Franklin Co, OH. There is substantial evidence that between 1824 and 1830, Benjamin Foster; his nephews -­‐ Thomas and Joseph Chenoweth; and three of his wards -­‐ Orson, Samuel and Andrew Jackson Kerr; moved to Fountain Co, IN. Orson Kerr and the Chenowiths purchased parcels of land next to Thomas Gouty in Highland Twp. In 1830, Thomas Gouty married a Nancy Carr in a ceremony performed by Thomas Chenoweth. Thomas and Nancy
Gouty named their first child Clarissa, the same name as the only sister of Nancy Kerr of Ohio. Given the close relationships between these families, it is very likely that Nancy Kerr moved from Ohio to Indiana with her guardian and her brothers and it is she that married Thomas Gouty.

John Ricketts's heirs, Phebe Sheridan, Hannah Buchanan*, who is dead, leaving nine heirs, William Ricketts, Susanna Moulton, Robert Ricketts Jr., Isaac Ricketts, Edward Ricketts, Elizabeth Blankenship, Rebecca Winings, Margaret Kelso's heirs, Sarah Winings, and Vienna Moulton.
(4) Land records for the Cincinnati District Land Office indicate the following land purchases in Ohio County, Indiana before 1820:
a) Patent to John Ricketts and Robert Ricketts Jr. assignees of Robert Ricketts, Accession CV-0045-095, 27 April 1819, 1st Prime Meridian, Township 3 North, Range 2 West, Southeast quarter of Section 24, Ohio County, Indiana.
b) Jacob Goodner of Kentucky, father of Mary Goodner who married John Ricketts, purchased the Patent for Accession CV-0030-402, 14 August 1816, 1st Prime Meridian, Township 3 North, Range 1 West, Southwest Quarter of Section 19, Ohio County, Indiana.
It seems reasonable to assume John Ricketts met Mary Goodner because of the proximity of the above two land tracts in Ohio County, Indiana.

born: probably circa 1743
died: after 18 April and before 1 June 1831, Rockingham County, Virginia.
ORIGINAL SOURCE MATERIAL to support the RELATIONSHIP between
JOHN ROYER and his son PHILIP ROYER
1) Samuel Royer died intestate in 1763 in Warwick Township, Lancaster Co., PA. See Index to the intestate records of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania 1729-1850, Name - Reier, Samuel, Year – 1763, Book - ___, Volume - ___, Page - ___.
See Lancaster Historical Society archive Inv 1764 F001 R – Reier, Samuel, "left several children some of whom were then minors."
See Lancaster Historical Society, probably Inv 1763 F001 R, five page document dated September 1763, page one - entitled Orphan's Court Order to assign Dower to Eve Unger late widow relict of Samuel Ryer; page two - first Tuesday in September 1765 petition of John Unger and Eve his wife late Eve Ryer widow and relict of Samuel Ryer late of Warwick Township, setting forth that the said Samuel Ryer died intestate, 150 acres, leaving issue four children; page three - labelled 1763 Return of the Widow Ryer's Dower; page four - division of land; page five - a drawing of the segments of land allocated to Eve Unger.
Also, The Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society library contains the following index card as part of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Mennonite Vital Records, 1750-2014, which shows the following: "Reyer Samuel, m Eve, 1. Samuel, 2. Henry, 3. John, 4. Juliana, wid Eve m John Unger. -Lanc. C. H. O. Ct., 1763, p. 106." The date on the actual typewritten document as obtained from the Lancaster Historical Society appears as 24 October 1764, not 1763. The document clearly shows a son of Samuel Royer who was named John. Also a son named Samuel who was the eldest of the four children of Samuel Royer.
2) John Royer (Johannes Reyer) of Warwick Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, married Maria Elisabetha Neu of Lebanon Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, on 20 October 1767. The wedding was officiated by Reverend Casper Stoever.
There are four different publications that list the wedding date and location:
i.) Records of Rev. John Casper Stoever, Baptismal and Marriage, 1730-1779, Harrisburg, PA.: Harrisburg Publishing Co. 1896, page 72, states, "Oct. 20. Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neu. Warwick and Lebanon."
ii.) Pennsylvania Lutheran Baptisms and Marriages, 1730-1799, records the marriage of Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neu on 20 Oct 1767 as taking place in Warwick and Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and cites as its source Early Lutheran Baptisms and Marriages in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
iii.) Pennsylvania Church Records – Adams, Berks, and Lancaster Counties, 1729-1881, records the Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neu marriage on 20 Oct 1767 as taking place in Lancaster Co., PA, and as obtained from the records of Reverend Stoever.
iv.) Pennsylvania and New Jersey Church and Town Records, 1669-1999, records the marriage of Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neuin on 20 Oct 1767 but taking place at No Annville Twp, Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and at Hill Evangelical Lutheran.
Analysis of the situation leads us to conclude that the marriage unquestionably took place in Lancaster County. The confusion comes in when we look at the one entry which lists the location of the wedding at "No Annville Twp, Lebanon, Pennsylvania." Lebanon County was not formed until the year 1813 when it was formed from part of Lancaster County and Dauphin County.(10) Clearly, Lebanon County did not exist in 1767. When we search on "North Annville Township, Lebanon County, Pennsylvania," in Wikipedia, we find the following statement: "This area was originally part of Lebanon Township of Lancaster County and then Annville Township of Lebanon County."
A website, pagenweb.org, which lists the "Marriage Records of Rev. John Casper Stoever (all 1,429 marriages)" provides adequate clarification. That website gives the following listing for the Reyer – Neu wedding:

1767 10 20 Reyer, Johannes (Warwick) Neu, Maria Elisabetha (Lebanon)

This record indicates John Reyer was living in Warwick Township and Maria Elisabetha Neu was living in Lebanon Township. Both Warwick and Lebanon were townships in Lancaster County in 1767.
There is no Lebanon Township in Lancaster County in the year 2017. The Hill Evangelical Lutheran Church, we believe, refers to a church which Reverend Casper Stoever founded in 1733 and in August 2017 is located at 998 N. Mill Street in Lebanon, Pennsylvania. This church is about 15 miles north of Brickerville, where many members of the Reyer family lived. It is entirely possibly the Reyer – Neu wedding was held in this historic church which still stands today.
3) Maria Elisabetha Reyer is buried at the Peaked Mountain Church Cemetery in McGaheysville, Rockingham, Virginia. See Peaked Mountain Church Cemetery Records, McGaheysville, Rockingham County, Virginia, Survey Date 22 October 2003, Recorder – Bob & Lois Emswiler. "Reyer, Maria Elisabeth, Date of Birth – 12 Jun 1743, Date of Death – none, Headstone Notes – wife(?) of John Reiers, Remarks – Illegible marker 2003 – Inscriptions in German – recorded by John W. Wayland in 1930s. Also see: A History of Rockingham County Virginia by John W. Wayland, Ph.D., published by Ruebush-Elkins Company, Dayton, Virginia, 1912, for a probable listing of same. Also, for a partial listing of Peaked Mountain Church Records, see Wm. J. Hinke and Charles E. Kemper, The William and Mary Quarterly, Vol. 13, No. 4 (April 1905), pp. 247-256.
4) Maria Elisabetha Neu was born 12 June 1743. See Peaked Mountain Church Cemetery Records, McGaheysville, Rockingham County, Virginia, Survey Date 22 October 2003, Recorder – Bob & Lois Emswiler.

See John Walter Wayland, Virginia Valley Records – Genealogical and Historical Materials of Rockingham, "Peaked Mountain Church Cemetery records". Wayland wrote on April 8, 1931: "Old graveyard at McGaheysville, Rockingham County, Va. On the N. W. side of the main road, around the old Lutheran (formerly Lutheran and German Reformed) Church."
5) John Royer and relatives attended the Peaked Mountain Church in McGaheysville, Rockingham County, Virginia, in the 1790s. See John Walter Wayland, Virginia Valley Records – Genealogical and Historical Materials of Rockingham. "Peaked Mountain Church records."
6) John Royer died in Rockingham County, Virginia, after 18 April 1831 and before 1 June 1831. John Royer and his family is well documented in an 1841 Chancery Court case in Rockingham County, Virginia. See University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007. Also listed as 1842-02-CSC, Chancery Causes John Royer's Adm. vs Peter Boyer etc. The Court Case took place in 1841. Record consists of 44 pages. Website at 22 July 2017: http://www.lva.virginia.gov/chancery/.
7) Peter Royer was a son of John Royer. See University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007. Also listed as 1842-02-CSC, Chancery Causes John Royer's Adm. vs Peter Boyer etc. The Court Case took place in 1841. Record consists of 44 pages. Website at 22 July 2017:
http://www.lva.virginia.gov/chancery/.
Page 165_1842_002_0002 states the following: "The said John Royer at the time of his death had by a previous wife the following children, to wit, your orator (i.e., Peter Royer) & Catharine of Rockingham County, & Philip Royer since dead his wife also dead ? but the said Philip left the following children to wit: John Royer, Abraham Royer, Jonathan Royer, and Joseph Royer, one Betsy married George Hartman all of the state of Ohio, also Catharine married to George Stumbough of Ohio, one Teney married to Peter of the County of Rockingham. John Royer left also Christian Royer of the state of Ohio, also Elizabeth married to Daniel Nunnemaker of the state of Ohio, she died in the lifetime of her father leaving the following children to wit Peter, Mary Ann and Elizabeth Nunnemaker all of the state of Ohio. The said John Royer also left by his last wife the said Barbary one son Henry Royer of the state of Ohio."
8) Virginia Births and Christenings, 1584-1917 lists a Peter Royer and wife, Elizabeth, son Jacob Royer, birth date 11 Dec 1800, Christening date 22 Feb 1801, at Peaked Mountain Church, McGaheysville, VA.
9) Peter Royer was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. See Magazine of Virginia Genealogy, Vol. 34, No. 4, pp. 343-4, "The 1826 Indenture of Joseph Good", transcribed by Dorothy A. Boyd-Rush, Ph.D. "Based on his signature, the Jacob Royer who witnessed the indenture in 1826 was a son of Peter Royer who, like many members of the Good Family, was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and died in Rockingham County. Jacob himself was born in Rockingham County in 1800 and died in the same county in 1885." Also see, An 1850 census record for District 56 and a half, Rockingham County, Virginia, indicates a Peter Boyer, age 76, born about 1774, in Pennsylvania. Ancestry.com indicates this record could be for a Peter Royer. We believe this record was for Peter Royer, not Peter Boyer.
The reason we make this statement is due to several factors. On the next line below this Peter appears an Addison Royer. We know Addison Royer was a son of Peter Royer from Addison's marriage record in 1856. We also know from the records of the Peaked Mountain Church Peter's wife was named Elizabeth. Peter and his wife Elizabeth are both shown as not able to read or write. We also see a Peter Boyer listed on the same page a few lines above. This Peter appears as age 62 and born in a state other than Virginia. This Peter probably was the son of Barbara Boyer, the second wife of John Royer.
10) Philip Royer was a son of John Royer. See University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007. Also listed as 1842-02-CSC, Chancery Causes John Royer's Adm. vs Peter Boyer etc. The Court Case took place in 1841. Record consists of 44 pages. Website at 22 July 2017: http://www.lva.virginia.gov/chancery/. Page 165_1842_002_0002 states the following: "The said John Royer at the time of his death had by a previous wife the following children, to wit, your orator (i.e., Peter Royer) & Catharine of Rockingham County, & Philip Royer since dead his wife also dead ? but the said Philip left the following children to wit: John Royer, Abraham Royer, Jonathan Royer, and Joseph Royer, one Betsy married George Hartman all of the state of Ohio, also Catharine married to George Stumbough of Ohio, one Teney married to Peter of the County of Rockingham.

The said John Royer also left by his last wife the said Barbary one son Henry Royer of the state of Ohio."
11) Elizabeth Royer married George Hartman. See Rockingham County, VA, marriage records: George Hartman to Elizabeth Royer, daughter of Philip Royer, marriage bond dated March 25, 1818. Also see, University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007.

12) John Royer served in the Warwick Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania Militia in 1775. John Royer was a private serving under the command of a Captain Peter Grubb in the Warwick Township Association in the year 1775. See Pennsylvania Archives, Series 5, Volume 7, pages 8 and 9.
13) No other record for John Royer of Warwick Township has been found related to his service in the American Revolution. However, there is a record for a John Royer in the Revolutionary War Battalions & Militia Index Cards 1775-1783. See Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: Historical Society of Pennsylvania, John Royer, Private, Associators and Militia, Volume 1, page 305. There is nothing on this card to indicate this John Royer was in Warwick Township, Lancaster County.
14) There is much evidence that Samuel Royer, the oldest brother of John Royer, served as a Captain in the American Revolution after moving to Cumberland County, PA. See Revolutionary War Battalions & Militia Index Cards 1775-1783, Volume 2, pages 414 and 440, Associators and Militia, Royer/Royar, Samuel, Captain. See S.A.R. membership application #66224 under Capt. Samuel Royer. Pennsylvania Archives, Series 5, Volume 6, page 88, A Class Roll of Capt. Samuel Roger's Company (being the fifth) of the First Battalion of Cumberland County Militia, Aug. 16th, 1780. Also see Series 5, Volume 6, page 511, First Company, Captain. Samuel Royar, July 31, 1777. Samuel would be one of the men to petition the state of Pennsylvania to create Franklin County from Cumberland County after the war. It would make sense that John Royer, a younger brother of Samuel, also would have served in some capacity during the American Revolution. See also, Virginia Shannon Fendrick, compiler, American Revolutionary Soldiers of Franklin County (Chambersburg, PA: Historical Works Committee of the Franklin Co. Chapter, D.A.R., 1944). While Fendrick lists many men in her work who served under Captain Samuel Royer, she fails to include a biography on Captain Samuel Royer in her work.


213 Maria Elisabetha Neu
born: 12 June 1743, probably Lancaster County, Pennsylvania
died: after 1799, Rockingham County, Virginia.
ORIGINAL SOURCE MATERIAL to support the RELATIONSHIP between
MARIA ELISABETHA NEU and her son PHILIP ROYER
1) Samuel Royer died intestate in 1763 in Warwick Township, Lancaster Co., PA. See Index to the intestate records of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania 1729-1850, Name - Reier, Samuel, Year – 1763, Book - ___, Volume - ___, Page - ___.
See Lancaster Historical Society archive Inv 1764 F001 R – Reier, Samuel, "left several children some of whom were then minors."
See Lancaster Historical Society, probably Inv 1763 F001 R, five page document dated September 1763, page one - entitled Orphan's Court Order to assign Dower to Eve Unger late widow relict of Samuel Ryer; page two - first Tuesday in September 1765 petition of John Unger and Eve his wife late Eve Ryer widow and relict of Samuel Ryer late of Warwick Township, setting forth that the said Samuel Ryer died intestate, 150 acres, leaving issue four children; page three - labelled 1763 Return of the Widow Ryer's Dower; page four - division of land; page five - a drawing of the segments of land allocated to Eve Unger.
Also, The Lancaster Mennonite Historical Society library contains the following index card as part of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Mennonite Vital Records, 1750-2014, which shows the following: "Reyer Samuel, m Eve, 1. Samuel, 2. Henry, 3. John, 4. Juliana, wid Eve m John Unger. -Lanc. C. H. O. Ct., 1763, p. 106." The date on the actual typewritten document as obtained from the Lancaster Historical Society appears as 24 October 1764, not 1763. The document clearly shows a son of Samuel Royer who was named John. Also a son named Samuel who was the eldest of the four children of Samuel Royer.
2) John Royer (Johannes Reyer) of Warwick Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, married Maria Elisabetha Neu of Lebanon Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, on 20 October 1767. The wedding was officiated by Reverend Casper Stoever.
There are four different publications that list the wedding date and location:
i.) Records of Rev. John Casper Stoever, Baptismal and Marriage, 1730-1779, Harrisburg, PA.: Harrisburg Publishing Co. 1896, page 72, states, "Oct. 20. Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neu. Warwick and Lebanon."
ii.) Pennsylvania Lutheran Baptisms and Marriages, 1730-1799, records the marriage of Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neu on 20 Oct 1767 as taking place in Warwick and Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and cites as its source Early Lutheran Baptisms and Marriages in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
iii.) Pennsylvania Church Records – Adams, Berks, and Lancaster Counties, 1729-1881, records the Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neu marriage on 20 Oct 1767 as taking place in Lancaster Co., PA, and as obtained from the records of Reverend Stoever.
iv.) Pennsylvania and New Jersey Church and Town Records, 1669-1999, records the marriage of Johannes Reyer and Maria Elisabetha Neuin on 20 Oct 1767 but taking place at No Annville Twp, Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and at Hill Evangelical Lutheran.
Analysis of the situation leads us to conclude that the marriage unquestionably took place in Lancaster County. The confusion comes in when we look at the one entry which lists the location of the wedding at "No Annville Twp, Lebanon, Pennsylvania." Lebanon County was not formed until the year 1813 when it was formed from part of Lancaster County and Dauphin County.(10) Clearly, Lebanon County did not exist in 1767. When we search on "North Annville Township, Lebanon County, Pennsylvania," in Wikipedia, we find the following statement: "This area was originally part of Lebanon Township of Lancaster County and then Annville Township of Lebanon County."
A website, pagenweb.org, which lists the "Marriage Records of Rev. John Casper Stoever (all 1,429 marriages)" provides adequate clarification. That website gives the following listing for the Reyer – Neu wedding:

1767 10 20 Reyer, Johannes (Warwick) Neu, Maria Elisabetha (Lebanon)

This record indicates John Reyer was living in Warwick Township and Maria Elisabetha Neu was living in Lebanon Township. Both Warwick and Lebanon were townships in Lancaster County in 1767.
There is no Lebanon Township in Lancaster County in the year 2017. The Hill Evangelical Lutheran Church, we believe, refers to a church which Reverend Casper Stoever founded in 1733 and in August 2017 is located at 998 N. Mill Street in Lebanon, Pennsylvania. This church is about 15 miles north of Brickerville, where many members of the Reyer family lived. It is entirely possibly the Reyer – Neu wedding was held in this historic church which still stands today.
3) Maria Elisabetha Reyer is buried at the Peaked Mountain Church Cemetery in McGaheysville, Rockingham, Virginia. See Peaked Mountain Church Cemetery Records, McGaheysville, Rockingham County, Virginia, Survey Date 22 October 2003, Recorder – Bob & Lois Emswiler.

Wayland in 1930s. Also see: A History of Rockingham County Virginia by John W. Wayland, Ph.D., published by Ruebush-Elkins Company, Dayton, Virginia, 1912, for a probable listing of same. Also, for a partial listing of Peaked Mountain Church Records, see Wm. J. Hinke and Charles E. Kemper, The William and Mary Quarterly, Vol. 13, No. 4 (April 1905), pp. 247-256.

See John Walter Wayland, Virginia Valley Records – Genealogical and Historical Materials of Rockingham, "Peaked Mountain Church Cemetery records". Wayland wrote on April 8, 1931: "Old graveyard at McGaheysville, Rockingham County, Va. On the N. W. side of the main road, around the old Lutheran (formerly Lutheran and German Reformed) Church."
5) John Royer and relatives attended the Peaked Mountain Church in McGaheysville, Rockingham County, Virginia, in the 1790s. See John Walter Wayland, Virginia Valley Records – Genealogical and Historical Materials of Rockingham. "Peaked Mountain Church records."
6) John Royer died in Rockingham County, Virginia, after 18 April 1831 and before 1 June 1831. John Royer and his family is well documented in an 1841 Chancery Court case in Rockingham County, Virginia. See University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007. Also listed as 1842-02-CSC, Chancery Causes John Royer's Adm. vs Peter Boyer etc. The Court Case took place in 1841. Record consists of 44 pages.

7) Peter Royer was a son of John Royer. See University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007. Also listed as 1842-02-CSC, Chancery Causes John Royer's Adm. vs Peter Boyer etc. The Court Case took place in 1841. Record consists of 44 pages. Website at 22 July 2017:

Page 165_1842_002_0002 states the following: "The said John Royer at the time of his death had by a previous wife the following children, to wit, your orator (i.e., Peter Royer) & Catharine of Rockingham County, & Philip Royer since dead his wife also dead ? but the said Philip left the following children to wit: John Royer, Abraham Royer, Jonathan Royer, and Joseph Royer, one Betsy married George Hartman all of the state of Ohio, also Catharine married to George Stumbough of Ohio, one Teney married to Peter of the County of Rockingham. John Royer left also Christian Royer of the state of Ohio, also Elizabeth married to Daniel Nunnemaker of the state of Ohio, she died in the lifetime of her father leaving the following children to wit Peter, Mary Ann and Elizabeth Nunnemaker all of the state of Ohio. The said John Royer also left by his last wife the said Barbary one son Henry Royer of the state of Ohio."
8) Virginia Births and Christenings, 1584-1917 lists a Peter Royer and wife, Elizabeth, son Jacob Royer, birth date 11 Dec 1800, Christening date 22 Feb 1801, at Peaked Mountain Church, McGaheysville, VA.
9) Peter Royer was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. See Magazine of Virginia Genealogy, Vol. 34, No. 4, pp. 343-4, "The 1826 Indenture of Joseph Good", transcribed by Dorothy A. Boyd-Rush, Ph.D. "Based on his signature, the Jacob Royer who witnessed the indenture in 1826 was a son of Peter Royer who, like many members of the Good Family, was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and died in Rockingham County. Jacob himself was born in Rockingham County in 1800 and died in the same county in 1885." Also see, An 1850 census record for District 56 and a half, Rockingham County, Virginia, indicates a Peter Boyer, age 76, born about 1774, in Pennsylvania. Ancestry.com indicates this record could be for a Peter Royer. We believe this record was for Peter Royer, not Peter Boyer.
The reason we make this statement is due to several factors. On the next line below this Peter appears an Addison Royer. We know Addison Royer was a son of Peter Royer from Addison's marriage record in 1856. We also know from the records of the Peaked Mountain Church Peter's wife was named Elizabeth. Peter and his wife Elizabeth are both shown as not able to read or write. We also see a Peter Boyer listed on the same page a few lines above. This Peter appears as age 62 and born in a state other than Virginia. This Peter probably was the son of Barbara Boyer, the second wife of John Royer.
10) Philip Royer was a son of John Royer. See University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007.

11) Elizabeth Royer married George Hartman. See Rockingham County, VA, marriage records: George Hartman to Elizabeth Royer, daughter of Philip Royer, marriage bond dated March 25, 1818. Also see, University of Virginia, Chancery Records Index, Rockingham County, John Royer's administrator versus Peter Boyers et. al., Index Number 1842-002, Original Case Number 007.

12) John Royer served in the Warwick Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania Militia in 1775. John Royer was a private serving under the command of a Captain Peter Grubb in the Warwick Township Association in the year 1775. See Pennsylvania Archives, Series 5, Volume 7, pages 8 and 9.

See Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: Historical Society of Pennsylvania, John Royer, Private, Associators and Militia, Volume 1, page 305. There is nothing on this card to indicate this John Royer was in Warwick Township, Lancaster County.
14) There is much evidence that Samuel Royer, the oldest brother of John Royer, served as a Captain in the American Revolution after moving to Cumberland County, PA. See Revolutionary War Battalions & Militia Index Cards 1775-1783, Volume 2, pages 414 and 440, Associators and Militia, Royer/Royar, Samuel, Captain. See S.A.R. membership application #66224 under Capt. Samuel Royer. Pennsylvania Archives, Series 5, Volume 6, page 88, A Class Roll of Capt. Samuel Roger's Company (being the fifth) of the First Battalion of Cumberland County Militia, Aug. 16th, 1780. Also see Series 5, Volume 6, page 511, First Company, Captain.

noteworthy: Fox’s Gap in Maryland, on the Old Sharpsburg Road from Frederick to Sharpsburg, was named after him in the 1750s or 1760s. General Braddock and George Washington travelled that road in May 1755 during the Braddock Expedition. September 14, 1862, was the Battle of South Mountain which began at Fox’s Gap. Major General Jesse Reno and Confederate General Garland were both killed during the battle at Fox’s Gap.
ORIGINAL SOURCE MATERIAL to support the RELATIONSHIP between
JOHN FOX and his son FREDERICK FOX
1) Will of John Fox, Court House, Washington County, Maryland, Book A, Liber 102, January 17, 1784. John Fox mentions his son Frederick four times in
his will as well as his wife Christina, oldest son Daniel, son Michael, daughters Magdelin and Rachael, and two granddaughters, Elizabeth and Catherine
?Furtnay? or ?Fortney?. Michael, a younger brother of Frederick, preceded Frederick to Ohio. News from Fox's Gap, Issue 3, Volume 2, June 1, 2002, published by The Society of the Descendants of Frederick Fox of Fox's Gap in Maryland, "Michael Fox of Fox's Gap in Maryland" by Lois Ann Baker. Also see Issue 4, Volume 2, "Michael Fox, a brother of Frederick, and The Fox - Beard Connection in Ohio" by Lois Ann Baker.
2) The Fox Genealogy including Metherd, Benner and Leiter descendants, giving biographies of the first and second generations, with sketches of the third generation, compiled by D. G. Fox, 1914. (n.p.) 1924. 1 p. 1., (5)-172 p. 20 cm. 37-9439, CS71.F79, 1924. Appendix No. 1 states, “Mrs. Christiana (Fox) Allison who was the surviving great-granddaughter of John Frederick Fox, stated to the writer during an interview about two years prior to her death, that ‘the old man Fox's name was John Frederick’." The material in The Fox Genealogy was collected by the author, Daniel Gebhart Fox, about the year 1914 from members of the Fox family and from original source documents.
3) Obituary of John L. Fox, The Hoosier State newspaper, Newport, Indiana, Wednesday 11 January 1899, page 1, column 3. Names his parents as George Fox and Elizabeth (Link) Fox. Names a son as Daniel and names a grandfather as Frederick Fox of Maryland. He was buried in Highland township (Indiana). “He was the son of George and Elizabeth (Link) Fox. The father of our subject was a native of Maryland and a son of Frederick Fox, who was born on the ocean while his parents were emigrating to America. The Fox family first settled in Md., where they grand-father kept a tavern at the foot of Fox Mountain for many years.”
4) I. Daniel Rupp, Thirty-Thousand Names of Immigrants (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1971), 280-1. The name "Johan Friederich Fuchs" appears. “Johan Frederich Fuchs and his wife Christiana arrived at the port of Philadelphia on the ship Anderson, Captain Hugh Campbell, September 27, 1752. The date does not agree with the statement in the John L. Fox obituary that Frederick Fox was born on the ocean, but is within about 18 months of his birth date given in The Fox Genealogy. Also R. B. Strassburger and W. J. Hinke, Pennsylvania German Pioneers, Lists of Arrivals (Norristown, Pa.: Pennsylvania German Society, 1934), 488-9. John Fox took the oath on arrival. The Rupp record certainly indicates there was a John Frederick Fox who arrived at Philadelphia in 1752 and who could very easily have followed the Great Philadelphia Wagon Road to what became Fox’s Gap.
5) History of Vermillion County, Indiana, Biographical and historical record of Vermillion County, Indiana, published 1888, page 491. The article indicates John L. Fox owned 331 acres of choice land at one time in Highland Township. He was farming 186 acres at the time the book was published in 1888. It lists his parents as George and Elizabeth (Link) Fox and his grandfather as Frederick Fox. The obituary certainly substantiates material in The Fox Genealogy by D. G. Fox.
6) Land record near Fox’s Gap in Maryland mentions John Fox’s house. Grim's Fancy, Maryland State Archives, BC & GS 40, p. 114, Alexander Trim's certificate of survey, examined and passed 5 June 1765, [MdHR 17,451, 1-23- 4-5]. "On the North Side of the Main Road that leads from Frederick Town to Swearingen's Ferry and near to John Foxes House". The same information is contained on a Surname Card and a Land Plat Card in the The Arthur G. Tracey Collection in the Historical Society of Carroll County, Md., 210 East Main Street, Westminster, MD. 21157). The documents that the John Fox family was very near Fox’s Gap by at least June 1765. The Grim’s Fancy property appears to have been within at least a half mile of where the Reno Monument stands.
7) MdHR, 17,478, 1-23-4-34, Frederick Fox, patent for Addition to Friendship, May 27, 1805, 202 ac. Maryland State Archives, IC #P, 672-3. Frederick Fox was the first landowner of property where the Reno Monument stands at Fox’s Gap in Maryland. The property extended from Fox’s Gap along the Wood Road to Turner’s Gap. It an included about 80 acres at Turner’s Gap and about 80 acres at Fox’s Gap. Major fighting occurred at both Fox’s Gap and Turner’s Gap on this property at the Battle of South Mountain, September 14, 1862. The Reno Monument at Fox’s Gap and the Dahlgren Chapel at Turner’s Gap stand on this property. Addition to Friendship was a resurvey obtained by Frederick Fox out of the western shore land office by a special warrant of proclamation “to resurvey and affect the vacancy included in a resurvey made for him on the eighth day of June seventeen hundred and ninety five by the name of Friendship, the caution money for which had not been paid within the time limited by law. In pursuance whereof, a resurvey was made and a certificate thereof returned containing two hundred and two acres lying in the county aforesaid and called Addition to Friendship.”
8) The Moses Chapline Senior Administration Account papers submitted by the executors of the estate, bearing a date of Jun 19, 1766, mention the name of John Fox. See Frederick County, Maryland, The Account of Joseph and Jennett Chapline, executors of Moses Chapline, late of Frederick County deceased.
9) Letter from Jacob Reel to Michael and Frederick Fox, dated at Sharpsburg, Aug. 9, 1812, from a copy obtained from Robert H. Fox of Cincinnati, Ohio. "The following letter received and forwarded from Lebanon, Warren County, Ohio, Sept. 8, 1812, addressed to Msrs. Fredric(k) & Michael Fox, Franklin Township, Warren Co. Ohio". The letter informs Frederick and Michael of the death of their mother, Christina Fox. A copy of this letter is included in a CD-rom entitled Fox’s Gap in Maryland at the Frederick County Historical Society in Frederick, Maryland. Jacob Reel mentions Christina Fox twice in his will regarding a lot in Sharpsburg that he purchased from her.
10) A map of The Road from Swearingen’s Ferry on the Potomac River through Sharpsburgh to the Top of the South Mountain at Fox’s Gap was recorded on August 23, 1792, and is in the Maryland State Archives at Annapolis, Maryland. Maryland State Archives, Special Collections (MSA Map Collection) 507 "Road from Swearingen's Ferry on the Potomac River through

Swearingen's Ferry and Pack Horse Ford. This marker is at the Rumsey Bridge on the Potomac River at Shepherdstown. State Roads Commission Marker. General Edward Braddock. This marker is on the square in Sharpsburg, Maryland.
11) A history of the roads through Fox’s Gap and Turner’s Gap is included in the two following books by Curtis L. Older: The Land Tracts of the Battlefield of South Mountain (Westminster, Md.: Heritage Books, 1999) and The Braddock Expedition and Fox's Gap in Maryland, (Westminster, Md: Heritage Books, 1995). Both books contain extensive material about Fox’s Gap and Turner’s Gap which are not far from Boonsboro, Maryland.

ORIGINAL SOURCE MATERIAL to support the RELATIONSHIP between
PETER GOODNER and his son JACOB GOODNER
1) The Goodner family : a genealogical history : with a brief history of the family of Jacob Daniel Scherrer and notes on other Allied Families by Hubert Wesley Lacey, Dayton, Ohio, 1960, various pages.
2) Records in Guilford County and Orange County, North Carolina, indicate the only identifiable early Goodners were: two John Goodners, a Peter Goodner, a Mary Goodner, two Walters, a Jacob, a Henry, and a Conrad.
3) The only record for Peter Goodner appears in North Carolina Revolutionary Pay Vouchers, 1779-1782, Archives of North Carolina, Raleigh. "State of N Carolina Salisbury District N5356, Agreeable to an act of the General Assembly passed in Wake County this 14th July 1781 Peter Goodner was allowed nine pounds four shillings specie ?? Militia Service by the ?? of Auditors. Nov. 20th 1783." Also see, North Carolina Revolutionary Army Accounts Vol. XII, Page 80. Folio 2.
4) Mary Goodner, maiden name unknown, is the presumed wife of Peter Goodner. She is discussed on pages 19 through 27 in The Goodner Family by Lacey. Mary is the definitely known parent of Walter, Jacob, Henry, Elizabeth, and Mary (Polly) Goodner. Mary Goodner appears as the head of household in the 1790 census.(1790 Guilford County, North Carolina Census, 3 males under age 16, 3 females. Series: M637; Roll: 7; Page: 493; Image: 288; Family History Library Film: 0568147).
5) Mary Goodner first purchased land in her own name from Martin Wirick in Guilford County, NC, on 18 August 1788.(Record of Deeds, Guilford County, North Carolina, Greensboro, NC, Courthouse, Book 5, Page 18, Martin Wirick to Mary Goodner, 111 acres.)
6) Because Mary Goodner purchased land in her own name on 18 August 1788, Peter Goodner must have died by this time. His name does not appear in 1790 U. S. Federal Census.
7) Polly or Mary, the last child of Peter and Mary Goodner, was born about 1779 to 1781.
8) Mary Goodner died in the later part of 1796. Surviving estate papers refer to her as Widow Goodner on 13 January 1797. On May 25th 1797 Walter Goodner paid six shillings for a coffin for Mary Goodner deceased. Various amounts were paid on May 14th 1798 by Walter Goodner for the estate of the Widow Goodner. There also is a document that includes in the heading "Guilford County May Court 1800" appointing two individuals, John Starrat and Thomas Dick, "to settle the estate of Mary Goodner deceased." A third page is headed, "A list of vouchers for payment made by the administrator of the estate of Mary Goodner deceased in behalf of said estate." This page was signed by John Starrat and Thomas Dick who had been appointed by the court. This form indicates a balance of "£ 129 - 16 - 9 to be divided between five legatees."
9) The land purchased by Mary Goodner from Martin Wirick in 1788 was sold by her three sons on 12 December 1801. The deed was between "Walter Goodner, Jacob Goodner & Henry Goodner of the County of Guilford and State of North Carolina on the one part and Jacob Swisher of the other part and of the county and state aforesaid." (Records of Deeds, Greensboro, Guilford Co., North Carolina, Book 8, Page 273, Walter Goodner, Jacob Goodner, and Henry Goodner to Jacob Swisher) This deed was not proved in court until February 1805.
10) Conrad Goodner, brother of Peter Goodner, was born 29 November 1756 according to an American Revolution Pension Application made by Conrad. (Fold3.com, Revolutionary War Pension and Bounty Land Warrant Application Files, North Carolina, Conrad Goodner, wife Elizabeth, Number R 4113.)
11) Conrad Goodner, age 26, married Elizabeth Scherrer, age 17, in 1782.(The Goodner Family pages 116 and 372) She was the daughter of John Daniel Scherer and Hannah Sophia Dick. Elizabeth was born in Guilford County, NC, on 25 June 1765. Their first child, John, was born 17 Dec 1783.
12) The children of Mary Goodner were known to be first cousins to those of Conrad Goodner.(The Goodner Family, page 6) Thus, Conrad Goodner and Peter Goodner must have been brothers.
a. The Goodner Family, page 87, letter from Henry Goodner to his cousin, Godfrey
Goodner, son of Conrad. Letter dated 12 July 1817. In the letter Henry states, "You wrote me that uncle wanted particularly to know how many sons and daughters we have." Uncle surely referred to Conrad Goodner.
b. The Goodner Family, page 88, letter from Henry Goodner to his uncle, Conrad
Goodner. The letter was addressed to Conrade Goodner, Illinois Territory, Forward by Mr. Nelson. Marked "Received Feb. 24, 1817". In the letter Henry states, "Cousins David and Godfrey have been to see me and I have been to see them. My daughter Betsy lived with the for nearly four months." David and Godfrey were two sons of Conrad Goodner.
13) Confirmation that the family originally came from Germany through North Carolina and Kentucky is provided in the Jacob Goodner biography in History of Allen and Woodson Counties, Kansas, edited and compiled by L. Wallace Duncan and Chas. F. Scott, Iola, Kansas, Iola Register, Printers and Binders, 1901, pages 569 and 570. This Jacob Goodner, a son of Michael Goodner, was born in Switzerland Co., Indiana on 30 August 1832. Michael Goodner was a son of Jacob Goodner (1774 to 26 July 1839). Michael was born in Kentucky on 04 March 1807 and died 29 September 1889 in Stearns Co., MN.(The Goodner Family, page 68.)
14) Jacob Goodner married Hester White in Guilford County, North Carolina about 25 November 1798.

Catren Wite, Frederack Fall, page 135, bond date - 27 March 1798, Event Type – Bond, Bondsman and Witness – Jacob Swisher.
4) John Daniel Witt was born in 1780 and he married Elizabeth Fall, a daughter of Christian Fall Senior. Elizabeth was a brother of Christian Fall and Tetrarch Fall. (Fahl -Fall and Allied Families, page 336 and pages 539-540, “Mrs. Elsie Hunt Mitchell of Liberty has the following baptismal certificate written in German script – ‘Elizabeth Fahl is born of Christian parents on the thirteenth of October in the year of Christ, seventeen hundred and eighty four. Her father and mother are Christian Fahl and Magdalena his lawful wife. The baptizers are Adam Wetze and Anna Margaret his wife’.”)
5) Michael Witt Junior married first in 1811 in Guilford County, NC, a Susannah
Wirrick (Wyrick). (Fahl - Fall and Allied Families, page 541)
6) Three daughters of Michael Witt Senior and his wife, Mary, married into the Shoemaker family. The Shoemakers were all sons of Conrad Shoemaker Senior and Susannah Youngman who came to Guilford County about 1770:
i. Jane (Jean) Witt, probably born about 1782, married Conrad Shoemaker. No marriage record has been found. However, the will of Conrod Shoemaker identifies his wife as Jane and the will was witnessed by a John Witt. (Indiana Wills and Probate Records 1798-1999, Conrod Shoemaker, Made 10 July 1843, Probate Date – 16 March 1844, Probate Place – Boone, Indiana, Inferred Death Year – Abt 1843, Will Record, Volume A, 1833-1853) The will was witnessed by Josiah C. Lane and John Witt. A John Witt also appeared before the Clerk of the Probate Court and signed the probate record. He may have been John Daniel Witt, a brother of Jane Witt and the husband of Elizabeth Fall, who died 28 September 1847 in Randolph County, Indiana.
ii. Anna Margaret Witt married Daniel Shoemaker. No marriage record has been found. She was born 27 Dec 1784 in Guilford County, NC. She died in 1848 in Randolph County, Indiana. Daniel Shoemaker, born 27 April 1775 in Guilford County, NC and died about 1830 in Randolph County, IN. Anna Margaret (Witt) Shoemaker married second, a Daniel Williams, in 1833. (Indiana Marriage Index 1806-1861, Margaret (widow) Shoemaker, Daniel Williams, November 1833, Wayne County, IN) (Indiana State Library Genealogy Database: Marriages through 1850)
iii. Rosannah (or Rosanna) Witt married Christian Shoemaker. Rosanna was born 31 March 1786 and Christian Shoemaker was born 16 January 1779. (Portrait and Biographical Album, Jo Daviess and Carroll Counties, Illinois, Chicago, Chapman Brothers 1889, page 825, Biography of Cornelius Shoemaker)
6) Conner Family Bible, Clark County Genealogical Society, 521 Locust St., Marshall, Illinois. “Hester Goodner died January 19th 1834 age 65 years.” Therefore, Hester was born in 1769. “Jacob Goodner died July 26 1839 age 65 years.” Michael Goodner, a son of Jacob Goodner and Hester Witt, married Catharine Conner on 19 December 1828 in Dearborn County, Indiana.

10) See Jacob Goodner, a son of Michael Goodner, biography for confirmation the family originally came from Germany through North Carolina and Kentucky. Jacob was born in Switzerland County, Indiana, on 30 August 1832. History of Allen and Woodson Counties, Kansas, Edited and Compiled by L. Wallace Duncan and Chas. F. Scott, Iola, Kansas, Iola Register, Printers and Binders, 1901, pages 569 and 570.
11) John Goodner may have been the first child of Jacob and Hester (Witt) Goodner. John was born in 1800 in North Carolina and died on 14 October 1852. He married Jane Latta on 09 November 1826 in Dearborn Co., IN. (Indiana Marriages 1810-2001, John Goodner, Jane Latta, Marriage Registration, 7 November 1826, Dearborn Co., Indiana, page 22, FHL Film Number 000209855) The 1850 Division 2, Ohio County, Indiana Federal Census shows John Goodner as age 50 and born in North Carolina. Jane Goodner, probably the widow of John Goodner, quitclaimed a deed to Daniel Conner on 28 January 1853 in Switzerland County, Indiana.(The Goodner Family, page 358)
12) Most of the above Fall, Witt, Shoemaker, and Goodner families moved to counties near the Indiana and Ohio state line during the period from about 1803 to 1820 and they can be identified there in census and land records for that time period.
