General Notes: [Master File.ftw]

The ship Davy qualified in the port of Philadelphia on October 25th.The next day the Gazette revealed the horrible story of this voyage.The captain, both mates and 160 passengers died at sea. It was theship's carpenter, William Patton, who brought the ravaged vessel upthe Delaware. Patton listed 74 men, 47 women and no children as theremaining passengers but only 40 of the men were well enough to cometo the courthouse. In this context, the Gazette commented for thefirst time on the general situation, "Most of the Ships which bringDutch Passengers this Year have been visited with a Sickness that hascarried off great numbers."

from the History of Bucks County..."Whether he was the same JohnDeimer, who was a captain of a company in the expedition againstquebec in 1746-7, is problematical. Traditions in the family seem tobear out the theory that he was. Tradition further relates that wasreared in the Roman Catholic faith and educated for the ministry, butbecoming enamored of a Protestant maide, he married her and emigratedto America to escape the wrath of his family and church."

From "Deemers in Pennsylvania" web page:

One line of Deemers descends from Johannes, who arrived inPhiladelphia from Germany on October 25, 1738 aboard the Davy. Heeventually settled on a large tract of land in Nockamixon Townshipjust below the Durham Township line in northern Bucks County. InEurope he had been a Roman Catholic. He married a Protestant girl andemigrated to escape the wrath of the families and the Church.Tradition holds that he was the Captain Johannes Deemer whoparticipated in the expedition against Quebec in 1746-47.

The genealogy of this branch of the family is well documented. Theirhistory is closely linked to the history of northern Bucks County, asthey were among the founding fathers of this region. They werefarmers, lumberman, and as late as 1905, employees of the ironfurnaces at Durham.

Perhaps the most notable descendent of Johannes was Elias Deemer(1838-1918). Elias was a merchant and Civil War veteran. After the warhe settled in the Williamsport area where he became one of the leadinglumber manufacturers in the region. His lumber operations entered ninecounties in north central Pennsylvania, and extended to North Carolinaand Mississippi where he found the town of Deemer. He was also anewspaper publisher, banker, and politician. He served asRepresentative in the 57th, 58th, and 59th Congresses. He was aMcKinley Republican. His children included a lawyer, and the wife of aPennsylvania Superintendent of Public Schools.

Thomas Walling, Jr. was the oldest known child of Thomas Walling, Sr.and Mary Abbott. He was born about 1653 in Providence, Rhode Island.Providence at that time was still under the firm religious control ofRoger Williams. Thomas, Jr. spent his early life in this town, but mayhave spent some time in East Greenwich, RI where his first wife lived.Thomas, Jr. is known to have given an Oath of Allegiance to the Kingin May, 1682.

Thomas Walling, Jr. and Sarah Elwell were married on 10 May 1695 inRhode Island and it is likely that
the marriage took place in East Greenwich. Their first two childrenmay have been born in Rhode Island,
but according to the "Vital Records of Rhode Island" the rest wereborn in Salem Co., New Jersey. Thomas Walling, Jr. and his familyapparently lived on part of the 110 acre tract of land owned bySarah's father Thomas Elwell and located near the head of Salem Creekbeginning about 1695. From "Salem Deeds", on 3 July 1704, CharlesHopman assigned to Thomas Walling of Piles Grove Precinct, Salem Co.,NJ (carpenter) 200 acres of land. In 1707, Thomas was listed as"Overseer for the Poor" for the Piles Grove Precinct. He apparentlybought 650 acres of land (excluding 1/4 acre for burying ground) fromWilliam Allen on 13 Nov. 1718 in Prince George Co., Maryland. It isnot likely, however, that Thomas Walling ever lived on this, but someof his children probably did.

Thomas Walling left a will in Salem Co., NJ dated 19 May 1724 andproved 22 Oct. - 15 Nov. 1724 at
Cohansey, Salem Co., NJ in which he named his wife Sarah as Executrixand devised his estate to his
children. He was also referred to as a carpenter in this will. It isnot known when or where his wife Sarah
died.

Joseph Ware gave the Friends a lot of ground on his plantation on thesouth side of the creek, the deed having been given in 1717. As soonas the meeting house was finished, the members on the north side ofMonmouth river were attached to Salem Particular Meeting. The familieswere the Abbotts, Stubbins, Moss and Tylers. The meeting house wasabandoned about that time, but the grave-yard was used for a number ofyears after the meetings ceased to be held at that place. The Friendssubsequently purchased a lot of ground on the south side of the creek,near Harmersville, for a burying ground, which has been the principalplace for interment up to this time. A number of persons, however,have been buried in the ancient grave-yard since the members of theSociety, in a measure, abandoned it; such families as the Waddingtons,Hancocks, Carlls, and a few others, were desirous to be lain withtheir ancestors. The principal families that were members of AllowaysCreek Meeting at the time alluded to were the Whites, Bradways, Denns,Wares, Chambless, Oakfords, Wades, Daniels, Hancocks, Stretches,Barbers, and several others. Friends continued to hold their meetingin the house built on the Ware property until the year 1756. In 1753William Hancock deeded a lot of ground to the members of AllowaysCreek Particular Meeting for a meeting house, as it was a moreconvenient location. The house was built at two different periods oftime, the oldest in 1756, the new, as it is called, in 1784.

For twenty years he was Representative to theGeneral Court; for 13 years Chief Justice in the Court of Common Pleasand first Judge of Probate; and was commander of the militia of thecounty for 18 years. In 1706 he was chosen one of his Majesty'sCouncil, and continued to sit at that board for 21 years until hisdeath in 1727. This was a combination of offices and a union oflegislative and judicial powers, sometimes allowed in the sameindividual in the early stages of our settlements. The successfuldischarge of such varied employments is an evidence of his capacityand integrity, which, joined to his wit and affability, secured himgreat influence. Such was his sagacity and prudence that he oftencomposed differences both in church and state. He had fine talents forconversatoini; his pleasantness and affability made him agreeable; hiswit and humor often enlivened the company which he improved by hiswisdom. He was strict and exemplary in the performance of religiousduties, ans was remarkable for his humility and modest worth amongChristians, as for his intellectual powers and active services amonghis fellow men."29

General Notes: [Master File.ftw]

Eleazer Putnam lived in Danvers and was more prominent in town andchurch affairs than his brother James. He settleed on a farm north ofthe Gen. Israel Putnam house and near the Topsfield boundary on thepresent Preston place. He was a farmer and probably well off.
Eleazer and Hannah Putnam were admitted to the church in SalemVillage, 7 May, 1699, and on 31 Jan., 1717-18, he was made deacon ofthis church. In 1700 he was chosen tythingman for the Village andagain in 1705. He was constable during the year 1708 and surveyor ofhighways on Topsfield road in 1711.
In 1690 Eleazer Putnam had been one of Captain William Raymond'scompany enlisted of the "Canada Expedition." The General Court thoughtso well of this command that in 1725 a grant of land was made to theofficers and soldiers, or their heirs, in Merrimack. Afterward thisgrant, being found to be in New Hampshire, was located on the Sacoriver. During the witchcraft delusion Eleazer Putnam "drew his rapier"and punched at an imaginary devil or two which seemed to be torturingon the the afflicted girls. According to the ancient depositions histhrusts were as effective against the witch as against the French andIndians a couple of years before.
His will is date 3 Oct., 1732, and probate 9 Apr., 1733; in it hementions his wife Elizabeth, his daughter Hannah Peabody and herchildren, Nathan, Hannah, and Elizabeth; his sons Eleazer and Jepthaand dauther Apphiah Putnam; his sons Samuel and Henry to be executors.An inventory of the estate was returned by Samuel Putnam, executor, 22Jan., 1733-4.

General Notes: [Master File.ftw]

Thomas settled in Sudbury, Mass., in 166.5, on the east side of
Cochituate Pond, or Long Pond, as it was uniformly called in the
early records. This pond lies partly in Natick, partly in Sud-
bury, and partly in Framingham. Sept. 29, 1673 he bought by
exchange from Benjamin and Mary Rice the northerly one half
of eighty acres, which lay between Beaver Dam Brook, Gleason’s
Pond and Gleason’s Hill in Framingham. Gleason’s Pond, as it
is still called, covers about 13 acres. It was named for Thomas
Gleason, and for four generations his descendants lived upon its
borders. Thomas’ own home was built near it in 1678. Ott Sth,
1678 he was received as an inhabitant in the town of Sherborn,
where he enjoyed civil and religious privileges, his estate being
taxable there up to 1700.
Thomas was a signer of a petition March 3rd, 1692, to the
General Court at Boston to purchase adjacent land from the In-
dians in Natick Bounds for the incorporation of Framingham.
The name of his son Thomas Jr. appears on the same petition.
The location of Thomas Gleason’s farm near Sudbury is some-
times described as being in Natick’s Bounds in the town of
Sherborn, but between the years 1667 and 1710 it was recognized
as a part of Framingham.
The early records show a number of land transfers made by
Thomas Gleason.
His Will, proven Sept. 10, 1705, is as follows :

General Notes: [Master File.ftw]

Family lore has been passed through the generations that the Shumwayfamily is of French origin and that the it's progenitor in America wasa Huguenot. "Shumway" probably evolved from a French name likeChamois, but the English have always been capable corrupters of"foriegn" names both at home in Mother England and, of course, intheir colonies. Our ancestor accepted his new name and was calledPeter Shumway which was pretty close to Pet, Per, or maybe PierreChamois, non?

Because Huguenots (Protestants in France) were becoming veryunpopular, Peter left his Roman-Catholic homeland and came toMassachusetts Bay Colony around 1670. He was a colonial soldier asearly as 1675 and was a long time in the service of his colony andtherefore his adopted country, England. In the Narragansett war he andother brave soldiers captured an Indian fort in Rhode Island and drovethe enemy out of its Narragansett country stronghold. This war andparticularly the battle at the Indian fort became known as KingPhillip's War. "King" Phillip was a powerful Indian leader who broughttogether all the New England tribes for one decisive campagne againstthe white settlers whose aggressive expansion spelled the doom of theIndian and his culture.
To distinguish him from other Peter Shumways of his posterity, thisShumway became styled "Peter the Soldier." But,Military life wasintermittent in Colonial days, and though there is no proof that Peterowned land, he spent most of his days tilling it. He and his goodwifeFrances continued attending the Topsfield church where their four sonsand one daughter were Baptized.

In 1695, at Boxford, Massachusetts, Peter Shumway died. He was in hissixty-first year. Goodwife Frances lived until 1714.
Taken from a letter written by William H. Shumway, esq.,lawyer atSyracuse,NY May 1871: I understand from an attache' of JosephBonaparte that our name Shumway is a corruption of "Chamois" a personbearing it was Compte De Chamois, a member of the court of Louis XIV."
A Dr. Baird said " a protestant family named Chamois is mentioned in alist of fugitives from the nieghborhood of St Maixent in the oldProvince of Poitou, France at the time of the revocation of the edictof Nantes." Peter came to America among the emigrants who landedbefore the founding of Oxford Colony. He is said to have taken part inthe Narragansett war and taking the Indian fort there.

*********************************************
The following observations are courtesy of Dean Shumway:
Peter resided near Capt. John Peabody, when the family lived inTopsfield, Mass.

Much of this information is taken from the Shumway Genealogy compiledby Asahel Adams Shumway and copywrited in 1909. Two hundred copieswere printed. So far as is known that is all that was ever printed.

It is thought that Peter Shumway was born in Alsace Lorraine, France,April 10, 1635. He was a French Protestant called a Huguenot. He wasborn during the Thirty Years Religious Wars. Catholics had the controlof the government and tried to force out all opposition. Thousandswere killed and 400 thousand fled from the country. It is estimated20,000 of them came to the American Colonies before the RevolutionaryWar.

It is thought that the name Shumway did not exist prior to Petercoming to Massachusetts. Some have thought he used an assumed name.But if so, what would be the reason? Whatever the reason, there is notrace of the name in France.

Dr. Baird states that a family named CHAMOIS (pronounced Shamwah) ismentioned in a list of Protestant fugitives from France at the time ofthe Restoration of the Edict of Nantes; also a COMPT de CHAMOISE was amember of the court of Lois XIV. Their is also speculation it mgihthave been CHAMIER (pronounced Chom e ay).

The name is spelled different three or four times in Peter and Frances(his wife) wills. It is apparent he could not read or write English,for he signed his will with an X.

It is not known just when Peter came to Massachusetts, but it isthought he came in 1660 - 1670. It is also not know if his wife,Frances, came with him or if he married after he came. There is norecord of her birth or maiden name.

They settled in or near Topsfield, Mass. and later moved to Boxford,Mass. nearby. There was another French Huguenot by the name of MichaelDwinall who came to Massachusetts in 1668 and also settled inTopsfield.

*************

Peter's name was listed among the names of the Colonial soldiers ofthe Colony of Massachusetts as early as 1675. He is also listed as oneof the soldiers who fought in King Phillips War at the Battle ofNarragansett. This is known as the Swamp Battle with the NarragansettIndians, Dec. 19, 1675.

In the records of the town of Topsfield, at the town meeting of March7, 1681, Peter and James Waters were chosen to ring hogs for the year.

Peter Shumway's Will is on record, date of April 10, 1665 and wasprobated on June 10, 1695. He left a considerable estate appraised at83 pounds, 16 shillings and 6 pence.

*****

Huguenots were Protestants, many of them followers of John Calvin, whofled France in their thousands following religious persecutioninitiated around 1661 by the king, Louis XIV, with thousands of themcoming to Ireland. The name Huguenot is believed to be derived fromSt. Hugo a Protestant at the time of the Reformation, although othermeanings have been suggested. Persecution had been going on in Francesporadically since the middle of the 16th century and on 24th August1572 the Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Day had occurred when thousandsof Protestants were killed.

By 1662 the number of Protestants in France had grown to over onemillion; in 1685 Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes and madeProtestantism illegal, with the result that more than 400,000 fled thecountry.

The revocation of the "Edict of Nantes" was in 1685.

*****

The Huguenots were French Protestants who were members of the ReformedChurch which was established in 1550 by John Calvin. The origin of thename Huguenot is uncertain, but dates from approximately 1550 when itwas used in court cases against "heretics" (dissenters from the RomanCatholic Church). As nickname and even abusive name it's use wasbanned in the regulations of the Edict of Nantes which Henry IV (Henryof Navarre, who himself was a Huguenot previously) issued in 1559. TheFrench Protestants themselves preferred to refer to themselves as"reformees" (reformers) rather than "Huguenots". It was much laterthat the name "Huguenots" became an honorary one.

A general edict which encouraged the extermination of the Huguenotswas issued on 29 January 1536 in France. On March 1st, 1562 some 1200Huguenots were slain at Vassey, France. This ignited the Wars ofReligion which would rip apart, devastate, and bankrupt France forthenext three decades. During the infamous St. Bartholomew Massacre ofSunday night 24 August 1572 more than 8000 Huguenots were murdered inParis.

The Edict of Nantes was signed by Henry IV on 13 April 1598, ended theWars of Religion. The Huguenots were allowed to practice theirreligion in 20 specified French "free" towns. After Henry IV wasmurdered in 1610, however, the persecution of the "dissenters"resumed. The Huguenot free cities were lost one after the other afterthey were conquered by the forces of Cardinal Richeleu, and the lastand most important stronghold, La Rochelle, fell in 1629 after a siegelasting a month. Louis XIV began with a police of une foi, une loi,une roi (one faith, one law, one king) and revoked the Edict of Nanteson 22 Oct. 1685. Protestant churches and the houses of "obstinates"were burned and destroyed. Many Huguenots were burned at the stake.

At least 200,000 French Huguenots fled to countries such asSwitzerland, Germany, England, America, and South Africa, where theycould enjoy religious freedom. Between 1618 and 1725 between 5000 and7000 Huguenots reached the shores of America.

Known as "The Soldier"

On the roll of the Colonial Soldiers of Massachusetts as early as 1675.

Was in one of "King Phillip's War" (Indian), December 1675.

TRADITION ONLY supports the origin of the Shumway name.
Abiel Holmes D.D. visited the town of Oxford, MA in 1819 and 1825
to obtain information about the Huguenot colony which settled in
that town. Described in the Massachusetts Historical Collection
II, 80. He met with Mr. Peter Shumway (in 1819) "a very aged
man of French descent." He visited again (in 1825) and (Mr.
Shumway) "he told me that he was in his ninty-first year; that
his great-grandfather was from France."

The family name is held by many to be a corruption of the French
"Chamois" (pronounced Shamwah). Mr. George F. Daniels while
writing his book "The Huguenots in the Nipmuck Country" wrote
to the distinguished authority on Huguenots, Mr. Charles W. Beard,
concerning this name. Mr. Baird replied that "IF (note that IF!)
French the name "Chamois" offers a PROBABLE solution. A Protestant
family bearing this name is MENTIONED in a list of fugitives from
the neighborhood of St. Maixent (in the old department of Poitou,)
in the present department of Deux-Sevres, France, at the period
of the revocation of the Edict of Nantes."

"The fact of the French origin of the Shumways may be considered
as fairly well substantiated; historically their descent from
the Huguenots, rests thus far, upon tradition only.

Shumway, Peter, of Topsfield, 1678; Peter of Oxford, B.1735, isauthority for the assertion that, the family originated in France, thename was probably Chamois or Charmois. In the records of Essex Countythe name is often spelled "Shamway." Dr. Baird says, "a Protestantfamily named Chamois is mentioned in a list of fugitives from theneighborhood of St. Maixent in the old Province of Poitou, France atthe time of the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes." Peter came toAmerica among the emigrants who landed before the founding of theOxford Colony, as will be seen by the following, in the handwriting ofRev. John Campbell:--
"To the Honorable Spencer Phips Esq. Lieut. Governor and Commander in
Chief in and over His Majestie's Province of The Massachusetts Bay inNew England: The Honorable Council and House of Representatives inGeneral Court Assembled:
"The Memorial of Peter Shumway of Oxford most humbly sheweth thatwhereas your humble memorialist did many years ago prefer a petitionto the Honorable General Court of this Province praying that as he isthe legal heir and representative of Peter Shumway of Topsfield whowas a long time in the service of this Country and particularly in theNarragansett War, and taking the Indian fort there which he in saidpetition proved by living testimonies and which he believes theHonorable John Chandler and others worthy members of this HonorableCourt do yet remember.
"And whereas your aged, decrepid and poor memorialist hath never yetreceived any gratuity, or reward in land or otherwise for his father'sservices and sufferings as many others have done, your most humblememorialist again most humbly prayeth this Honorable Court in theirwonted goodness and compassion would make him a grant of some piece ofcountry land for said services, or otherwise as in their great wisdomthey [see] fit: which will oblige your most humble memorialist as induty bound will ever pray.

"March 23, 1749-50"
- Mass. Arch., XLVI., 212
We find no record of actin on this memorial.
Peter of Topsfield was progenitor of all of the name in the country,so far as known.
It is well known that in several other instances in Oxford names, theFrench termination OIS has been changed to WAY. A letter of William H.Shumway, Esq., lawyer at Syracuse, N.Y., May, 1871, says: "Iunderstand from an attache' of Joseph Bonaparte that our name Shumwayis a corruption of 'Chamois,' a person bearing it was Compte DeChamois, a member of the court of Louis XIV."

HISTORY OF BOXFORD - Perley 1645-1880
Page 101
Peter Shumway was in Topsfield as early as 1677. In 1682 with JamesWaters, he was chosen by Topsfield to "ring swine." He was inTopsfield in 1686, and probably came to Boxford very soon after. Heundoubtedly resided near Capt. John Peabody, as he calls Peabody his"neighbor." Shumway made a will, which was proved in July, 1695. Hiswill was, that his widow and sons should carry on the farm together.By his wife Frances, he had children (all born in Topsfield): 1. Peterb. 6 June 1678. 2. John b. 20 January 1677. 3. Samuel b. 2 Nov 1681.4. Dorcas b. 16 October 1683. 5. Joseph b. 13 October 1686. His sonPeter married Mariah Smith about 1700 and had six children born inBoxford. The family removed to Oxford, Massachusetts in 1714.
SHUMWAY FAMILY
Probably came from St. Maixent, Province of Poitou.

The record show his name on the roll call of the Colonial Soldiers ofMass. as early as 1675. An early trace of authentic history in thelife of Peter Shumway I appears in a petition by his son Peter ShumwayII of Oxford (Mass. Arch. XLVI,, 212). Muster Roll (Mass. Records atBoston) of Capt. John Learned's Co. February 17, 1757, has the name ofJeremiah Shumway from Oxford, Corp'l- Sept. 24; this connects him withthe French and Indian War.

Forum.
Circa 1623. Born Topsfield (Toppesfield, Essex?), England.
1638. Immigrated, probably as an apprentice to a Mr. Whittingham.
Resided first in Boston, then in Ipswich, then to Rowley where he
purchased 280 acres of land partly in Topsfield and in Boxford. He
was a tailor.
1661. Resident of that part of Rowley which became Boxford.
1673. One of six petitioners to the General Court, asking that
efforts to remove them from Topsfield and them to the jurisdiction of
Rowley be prevented.
1678. Oath of allegiance.
1680. Given as head of family in Rowley.
1693. Died intestate, with son Samuel named as administrator.
Estate valued at 189 pounds.

Robert Smith was born about 1623 in Lincolnshire and married about1656 in Topsfield Mary French, the daughter of Thomas French and MaryScudamore, who was born in Boston on Mar 2, 1634/35 and died in 1720.He died Aug 30, 1693.
" Robert Smith arrived in Boston in 1638, just months after AnneHurchinson's banishment to Rhode Island. Only twelve years old, Roberthad no mature encounter with Laudian persecution or EnglishPuritanism. Without a family other than a brother, who soondisappeared, his early exposure to Puritanism in New England camethrough the filter of indentured servitude or an apprenticeship. Afterworking as a tailor in Boston for some years, he married Mary Frenchof Ipswich in the mid 1650s and established himself in Boxford in1661. Mary was a member of the Topsfield Church by 1684, but RobertSmith never joined. By 1693, when he had his will drawn up as he laydying, Robert Smith enjoyed substantial yeoman circumstances, leaing300 acres to three of his sons. .......
Two episodes dramatically set off the story of the Smiths in EssexCounty. In the spring of 1692, at the height of the Salem witchtrials, Samuel Smith testified to the occult powers of his aunt bymarriage, Mary Easty. ......
The Smiths and the Townes had been on very intimate terms during the1680s. Though the Smiths lived in Boxford, miles from the Townes insouth Topsfield, all three marriages among Robert Smith's children inthe1680s were with members of the Towne family. But these cordialrelations were shattered when Samuel Smith of Boxford appeared at theSalem Court and testified at the trail of Mary Easty, the aunt ofthree of his brothers-in-law. One night five years previously Smithhad been "to rude in discorse" at the Easty house, probably at thewedding supper for his sister Amy, and Mary Easty had warned him he"might Rue it hereafter." Riding past a stone wall later that night hehad"Received a little blow to my shoulder with I know not what and thestone wall rattled very much which affrighted me my horse was alsoaffrighted vry much but I cannot give the reason for it."

Note that if she did, then her children,if any, were LANEs, not MOULTON. It would appear from the data aboutJohn on pages 498 and 790 that GDMNH is suggesting that Hannah LAMPEREwas a different Hannah.

Michael was probably born at Woburn, though there is no record of thefact and he is not mentioned in any notices or records of the family.It is only through legal documents that we get evidence of hisexistence.
In December, 1695, as we learn from the record of the First Parish inDorchester, a band of immigrants went out from the church to found areligious settlement in South Carolina. Some went with this band fromneighboring settlements, and among them was Michael Bacon. In 1696 agrant of land was made to John Stevens. Elder Pratt went with them,but returned to New England in February, 1696, where he remained abouta year. On his return to South Carolina the land that had been grantedwas divided. In his diary he says, "the 23d of March in the year 1697the church and others that were concerned did draw loots; the 24th daythat all meet together to stake out and number their loots in thetrading town, on both days when they met together on those occasionsthere was love and amity and peace in what was acted." The divisionwas made and determined by lot. Michael Bacon received lot No. 8 inthe 1st range and purchased lots 6 and 7 in the same range from JohnStevens. On one of these two lots was the bridge over the AshleyRiver, originally called Stevens Bridge, but has ever since been knownas Bacon's Bridge. Rev. Mr. Lord was the minister who went out withthis company. On Mar. 12, 1717, we find that Michael Bacon ofDorchester, South Carolina, gave a power of attorney to Joseph Lord ofsaid Dorchester, giving him authority "to ask, demand, require, suefor, recover and receive all such debts, dues, dutys, sum and sums ofmoney, goods, chattells, legacies and all other demands whatsoever wchnow or hereafter shall be due or any way belonging unto me from anyperson or persons whatever on account of the estate of my fatherMichael Bacon late of Billerica in the County of Middlesex within theProvince of ye Massachusetts Bay in New England." In the drawing oflots No. 10 in the first range fell to Joseph Lord and he purchasedNos. 11 and 12. Aug. 15, 1721, he conveyed No. 10 to Michael Bacon,Nathaniel Sumner and Thomas Osgood, Jr., and the rest of theinhabitants of, in and about Dorchester, now under the misistry ofRev. Mr. Hugh Fisher.
In 1752 quite a company left Dorchester and went to Midway, Georgia,and founded a church there. Among the names signed to the articles andrules of incorporation of the Society at Midway and Newport inGeorgia, Aug. 28, 1754, were these names: John Bacon, Thomas Bacon,Josiah Bacon, Jonathan Bacon, William Bacon, Thomas Bacon, Jr., Jno.Bacon Jonathan B. Bacon, Edmund Bacon, Joseph Bacon, Eugene Bacon,Jos. R. Bacon and Tanlon W. Bacon.
After the Revolutionary War Dorchester rapidly decayed, as the countrywas not fertile and not suited to agriculture. Among the settlers whowent to Georgia we find the following mentioned: Dec. 6, 1752, SamuelBacon and family; April 20, 1755, Joseph Bacon and family; Mar. 22,1771, Jonathan Bacon and family. Unfortunately the Dorchester recordshave been lost, but the records of the Midway church have beenpublished, and through them, even down to a comparatively recent time,may be found the name of Bacon, probably descendants of Michael

The records of marriages in Salem, Mass has two conflicting entries.One shows Michael Bacon marrying a Johanna Wells on this date. Under"Way", however, there is an entry that shows that a possible JohannaWay married a Michael Bacon but the page was torn so only pieces ofthe names fit...though it could be Michael Bacon! This is a mysterythat would be nice to solve.

It looks as though Joanna and Michael moved to Dorchester, S.C. withother Puritans, probably around 1694/1695. There is a record ofMichael Bacon owning land there. My guess is that Joseph Bacon wasborn after they arrived in Dorchester SC

From Rootsweb:

From Ancestry & Genenalogy of Thomas Grover, pg. 155: "...a shoemaker,in Billerica, 1696. Evidently he went with a group to Dorchester, So.Carolina, abt Dec. 1696, to establish a new religious colony andsettlement there; he drew Lot #8 in the First Range, of the town lotsettlement; he issued a power-of-attorney to his Minister, Rev. JosephLord, on March 12, 1717. He appears to have later gone to Newport,Georgia, with the other Dorchester folk, as the soil at Dorchester wasvery poor. No further records of him, his wife, or family, though manyBacon people there appear to be his descendents, judging by names,etc."

Although the early historians of the Duvall family have placed Lewisas a son of the second wife, there is every reason to believe that hewas one of the older sons and was of the first union contracted inMaryland. He was definitely the third son. He was of sufficient age in1694 for his father to respect his judgement and accordingly named himwith John to assist their step-mother in the management of the estate,but court records relate that his father's widow gave him very littleconsideration in the management of her affairs.

Mareen the Younger some years after Lewis' death stated that when hewas 10 years old, he went "racoon hunting with my brother Lewis nearthe place [Middle Plantation] and my brother shewed me our father'sbound tree."* It is noted that Mareen was "with" his brother and ifLewis were younger, he would have to have been 8 years or less -rather a young age for raccoon hunting, but Lewis was the one whoshowed Mareen the bound tree to his father's plantation. It istherefore evident that Lewis was the senior and being one of the olderboys knew the land marks.
By the terms of his father's will, he received a portion of the homeplantation, as follows:

"I give and bequeath unto my son Lewis Duvall all that my 300 acres ofland and Plantation whereon my Eldest son Mareen Duvall now dwelleth,it being a moytie Lying on the south east portion or End of 600 acresof land Called Middle Plantation and scitucite in the County of AnnArundel aforesaid to have and to hold the said portion and to theheirs of his body lawfully begotten for Ever and for want of SuchIssue then my will is that the same be and go to the next heir orheirs by and from me lawfully Descended."

In addition Lewis was willed a reversion in the dwelling-plantationincluding the mansion which his father had willed to the widow duringlife.
On March 5, 1699/00, he married Martha, daughter of Robert and MarthaRidgely, one-time of St. Mary's City. The baptism of their children isregistered in All Hallows Parish. Her legacy from her father's estateon day of marriage was £100.*

In 1705 Lewis Duvall was one of the Justices of Peace for Anne ArundelCounty.1 He witnessed the last will and testament of Henry Ridgely,his step-father, on April 30, 1705, and proved it at court on July 13,1710, at which time his daughter, Martha, described as a god-daughterof the testator, was bequeathed personalty.

On December 20, 1700, he instituted a resurvey on his share of "MiddlePlantation" which brought his portion to 844 acres. In the same yearhe and Leonard Wayman were sureties for Thomas Winter, theadministrator of Francis Johnson. On August 29, 1704, he purchasedfrom Benjamin Burgess, Mariner, 143 acres of "Burgess' Choice" whichadjoined his plantation.2

On August 1, 1710, he and Robert Wheeler, the appraisers of the estateof Henry Ridgely, were ordered to be sworn by John Gerard.3 At thereturn of an additional inventory of Colonel Henry Ridgely's estate onNovember 15, 1710, it was noted that Lewis Duvall, one of theappraisers "absented himself out of the Province before ye InvySigned." His absence at this time is unexplained, but by 1718 he withhis servant and body-guard John Elders settled permanently in theColony of South Carolina at Dorchester on the Ashley River amidst aPuritan settlement from Massachusetts.

Within a reasonable time his daughters joined him in South Carolinaand there he died 1724, leaving his three daughters co-heiresses tohis estate. Susannah, the second daughter, died unmarried within a fewyears, and Martha, the senior daughter, about 1730 returned to hernative Maryland home in order to dock the entail of "MiddlePlantation," but was apparently unsuccessful. She made her home withher step-grandfather, the Rev. Mr. Henderson, in Prince GeorgesCounty.

General Notes: [Master File.ftw]

Note: The following article was written by Mr.Thomas O. Lawton, Jr. ofAllendale, SC and published in the South Carolina HistoricalMagazine,LX No. 2, April 1959 issue. The William Lawton homestead wasa 660 acre place. From inventory of his estate, 36 slaves cultivatedrice, indigo, pease, corn, and tended 4 bee-hives, 23 turkey, 31fowls, 15 geese, 65 cattle, 36 sheep, 51 'hoggs', and 6 horses, .... 8rice mills, 3 corn mills, 2 spinning wheels, 1 quilting frame. Fortransportation the family used either the large or small sailingcanoe. Several guns, including one with a 'Silverlight', and shrimpand fish nets helped provide both food and pleasure. His libraryincluded 'Two Velems Family Instructor', 'Driling Court', one largeand two small Bibles, a 'Dixionary', 'Burket on the New Testament','Watts Sermons', and 'lotts of books'. His household .... also hadfiner items, such as silver forks and spoons, china, damask tablelinen, curtains, 'looking glasses', pictures, tea tables, desks,'teasters and valiants' and pavillions (Evidently testers andvalances, pavillions were mosquito nets). He possessed for dressoccasions a broadcloth suit, a wig, gold sleeve buttons, and silvershoe buckles. For every day ware ... 2 hats, 3 Fustian coats, an oldWelch coat, a broadcloth coat, 'Coat and Breches Bagathy', a ridingcoat, a callico 'rapper' and a 'lott of old clothes'. An English horsewhip and silver watch were special accessories. Captain William Lawtondied on Edisto Island between October 9 and October 15, 1757. Whetherhe was a retired sea captain, a captain in HIS MAJESTY'S SERVICE, alocal militia, or whether his appraisers merely conferred this titleas a mark of respect, is not known. He and at least one of his wivesare probably buried in two now unmarked (graves) depression near thewall of a brick-enclosed plantation cemetery in an area known asHanahan's on Steamboat Landing Road, Edisto Island.... Marked gravesare those of John Seabrook (d. 1795); Sarah Lawton Seabrook (d. 1798)nearest depressions. On at least two occasions Capt. Lawton dealt inthe money or slave market. His estate was appraised at 7901 pounds, 7shillings, 6 pence exclusive of land, and the inventory consists of 8minutely detailed pages. Captain Lawton was a Presbyterian or anAnglican ... James Clark, in his will of April 6, 1750, name astrustees 'My loving brothers-in-law William Jenkins and WilliamLawton' of a 100 pound trust 'for the use and support of the Gospel inthe Presbyterian Congregation in Edisto Island'. The minutes of theVestry of St. John's Colleton, the Anglican Congregation for Edisto,for Aug. 6, 1750, reads: 'Also this Day agreed that Mr. Samuel Jonesand Mr. Joseph Philps and Mr. William Lawton are a Pointed Overseersfor the Poor of the said Parish.'
....Under the statute law, each vestry was required to nominate "twoor more sober, discreet and substantial persons' for this post. Theywere required by statute to meet with the church wardens monthly afterservices to consult and regulate matters pertaining to the poor and tomake accountings to the vestries of their activities. Both the churchwardens and overseers of the poor were subject to fine for failingand/or refusing to accept their appointments.
William Lawton was apparently a man of some education and culture.When he witnessed the will of John Sealy on March 13, 1737, he was theonly one of the three witnesses to write his name rather than use amark.
On at least two ocasion Captain Lawton dealt in the money or slavemarket along with John Calder. Benjamin Gowen gave them a mortgage for300 pounds, securing five slaves in March 1753, and William Fryexecuted a mortgage to them on two slaves in March 1754.
