Hello, Schuylerites, I just joined this list. We are descended from the Tolle, Eads, & Bryant family, all of whom lived in Schulyer in 1850. I was fortunate to find a copy of the transcript of the 1850 Federal Census which was done in 1971 'for the benefit of the Schuyler County Jail Museum.' It has been a gold mine for us. Were any other Schuyler County censuses transcribed in that manner? If so, how might I get them? I have heard of a newsletter or magazine called THE SCHUYLERITE. Can anybody tell me about it? Please?

Forwarded from another list. Date: Tue, 6 Jul 1999 21:54:09 EDT From: BOOTSIE729@aol.com Reply-To: kirkland@onelist.com To: Kirkland@onelist.com Revolutionary War Bounty Land A land bounty is a grant of land from a government as a reward to repay citizens for the risks and hardships they endured in the service of their country, usually in a military related capacity. By the time of the Revolutionary War, the practice of awarding bounty land as an inducement for enlisting in the military forces had been a long-standing practice in the British Empire in North America. Besides imperial bounty land grants, both colonial and municipal governments had routinely compensated participants in and victims of military conflicts with land. Land was a commodity in generous supply, and governments seized upon its availability for accomplishing their goals In their colonial tradition, the Revolutionary governments patterned their struggle for independence from Great Britain on the principle of bounty lands. They generally offered free lands in exchange for military service, but they strategically did so on the presumption that they would be victorious in their struggle. They would not actually award the lands until the war had been concluded and the British defeated. Such a policy not only imposed no financial constraints on the war effort but also insured a degree of support for the Revolutionary cause. The Revolutionary governments were cognizant that to the victor belonged the spoils and that defeat brought no reward. Bounty lands were an effective propaganda technique for enrolling support for the war among the citizenry and preventing them from lapsing into the British fold when the tide of battle ebbed. Those colonies with unseated lands used their advantage to enlist support for the cause with the offer of free lands. Unfortunately, some of the Original Thirteen enjoyed no such advantage. There was no bounty land policy in Delaware, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, or Vermont. Those states lacked enough vacant land to support such a policy. Bounty lands were a feature, however, in Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia. Administratively, these nine states selected reserves in their western domains for the location of bounty lands. Such a choice was seemingly quite logical. By placing veterans on the frontier, the states would be able to rely upon a military force which in turn would be able to protect the settlements from Indian incursions. These state governments also realized that they had to encourage the ex-soldiers to occupy their newly awarded bounty lands, so they granted exemptions from taxation ranging from a few years to life to those veterans who would locate on their respective bounty lands. Such a policy also had the effect of retarding the exodus of a state's population. Since most of the Indian nations had supported the British during the Revolutionary War, the Thirteen States were cautious in approaching their former enemies. Populating the frontier with citizens skilled in defense offered the best prospect in enticing other settlers to join them. Veterans were knowledgeable in the use of firearms and in military strategy. Knowing that they would be defended if the need arose was reassuring to many settlers. The state governments also realized that the revenue derived from the sale of vacant lands in the west was badly needed. The extension of settlements on the frontier would, in time, also increase the tax rolls and contribute to the reduction of their Revolutionary War debts. In the aftermath of the war, the states with transappalachian claims ceded some of those claims to the federal government, but not until they had the assurance of being able to fulfill their bounty land commitments. Accordingly, the issue of bounty lands has far wider geographical implications than the area encompassed by the nine state governments which instituted the practice. Besides the original states of Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia, the future states of Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Ohio, and Tennessee were directly affected by the bounty land system. While the administrative records were, with one exception, the purview of the former nine, the bounty land reserves involved the five transappalachian states. The states of Georgia, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina either had no claims to transappalachian territory or relinquished their claims to the national government. Accordingly, their reserves for bounty lands lay within their own western borders. In the cases of Georgia and New York, these reserves were to be situated on the definition of their western borders as they existed in 1783. The bounty land reserves in those two states today would be described as being centrally located. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts allotted its bounty lands in the then District of Maine, which in 1820 achieved statehood status. While most of the states awarded bounty lands for military service, there were two exceptions. Connecticut compensated its citizenry with lands in Ohio if their homes, outbuildings, and businesses were destroyed by the British. The Nutmeg State seemingly awarded no bounty land for military service per se. Georgia also issued lands to its civilian population who had remained loyal, or at the very least neutral, to the Revolutionary cause after the British restored royal control. There were no Revolutionary War bounty land grants within the current borders of the southern states of North Carolina and Virginia. The former issued its bounty lands in its western lands which became Tennessee. The latter selected reserves for its bounty lands in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio before ceding its claims to the federal government. The Continental Congress also made use of the policy of bounty lands. The federal government likewise selected a reserve in the Northwest Territory where bounty land warrants could be used to locate land. The U.S. Military Tract in Ohio encompassed portions or all of the counties of Coshochton, Delaware, Franklin, Guernsey, Holmes, Knox, Licking, Marion, Morrow, Muskingum, Noble, and Tuscarawas. With the exception of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the other states permitted qualified veterans and/or their dependents to receive bounty lands from both the federal and the respective state governments. Accordingly, there may be relevant bounty land files for soldiers in the Continental Line at both the federal and state levels. While New York made some adjustments, double dipping was the norm in the other states. Following the American victory at Yorktown in 1781, the various governments sought to implement their bounty land programs. The delay in establishing a governmental agency to fulfill the bounty land pledge holds dual benefits genealogically. Firstly, it increases the likelihood of the survival of a paper trail for proving Revolutionary War participation for many individuals who may not be mentioned in any other record. Secondly, because the benefits were still being processed as late as the 1870s in some jurisdictions, there may be a wealth of information pertaining to heirs in bounty land files. Not only do the records locate the veteran in time and place him in a given locality during the Revolutionary War, they also do so for him and/or his dependents in the years following independence when internal migrations within the nation complicate the identification of specific individuals in their various removals. The index to those claims appears in the Index to Revolutionary War Pension Applications in the National Archives (Washington, D.C.: National Genealogical Society, 1976). The federal bounty land records are included in the National Archives micropublication, Revolutionary War Pension and Bounty-Land Warrant Application Files, 1800-1900, Series M804, 2,670 rolls. Abstracts of these files appear in the four-volume work of Virgil D. White, Genealogical Abstracts of Revolutionary War Pension Files (Waynesboro, Tenn.: The National Historical Publishing Company, 1990-1992). The appearance of an individual or family in the west after 1783 offers considerable challenge in learning the former domicile or in establishing filiation. A master index to the bounty land grants of the relevant state governments seemed to offer expeditious access to the records holding the potential solution to such a dilemma. While access to the federal records has long since been available in a master index, and while many localities have been treated individually by others works of varying quality, the absence of an overall index has impeded effective use of these significant records. --------------------------- ONElist Sponsor ---------------------------- Attention ONElist list owners! http://www.onelist.com/info/news.html Check out the new "DEFAULT MODERATED STATUS" option. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

She was born December 06, 1844 in Versailles Township, Brown Co., IL, and died November 27, 1922 in Mt. Sterling, Brown Co., IL, buried in Mt. Sterling City Cemetery, Brown Co., IL. Notes for James Hughes Patton: Excerpt from the Democrat Message newspaper in Brown Co., IL, upon the death of James H. Patton: James H. Patton was a member of the Masonic fraternity and a member of the local camp of Modern Woodmen of America, carrying a policy of $2,000 in the latter. James was a good neighbor, a man who read a great deal, and was always well posted on current events of all kind. Upon the death of James H. Patton, his nephew Hugh Patton came to Illinois from his home in Winterset, Iowa, for the funeral and stayed for a short visit with relatives and friends at Beardstown before returning to his home. Hugh was a former Brown County resident, having attended the Mt. Sterling public schools 45 years before James H. Patton's death when Hugh's parents resided near this city, on one of the farms now owned by Givens Brothers. Hugh had been gone from Brown County for more than two score years, and this was his second visit back to the scenes of his childhood during that time. He stated that he met very few people now that he knew here in the years past, and that the changes brought about during these years have been many. Children of James Patton and Sarah Reid are: 2 i. Ernest5 Patton. Notes for Ernest Patton: Ernest Patton died in infancy. 3 ii. Albert J. Patton, born January 24, 1869 in Hersman, IL; died January 01, 1936 in Quincy, IL, buried in Mt.

He was born on a farm near Hersman, Illinois, and grew to young manhood in this section of town. He took up the profession of a traveling salesman and for a long term of years held a responsible position with the International Harvester Company. Albert maintained headquarters at Springfield and at Quincy, Illinois, for this company. Upon retirement, Albert and Mrs. Patton came to Mt. Sterling. Albert was elected mayor of Mt. Sterling on April 15, 1919, and also served as chairman of the Brown county democratic committee before being elected to this position. Albert was a member of the local Masonic fraternity and was active in civic and social life in Mt. Sterling. Later he and his wife Grace retired to their farm near Gilbirds, their home for the rest of their lives. He was true to his convictions, honest in his dealings with his fellowmen, kind and generous in his every day life, and a true friend. What more can be said of any man.

I would like to find any information on Jacob WHITE. According to information on the Schuyler County Webpage Jacob was one of the first pioneers in the county. He also helped the county by the land where Rushville now stands. I am very interested in identfying his family. I think that he may have had a son Nathaniel. The family may have moved to Brown County sometime before 1830. Nathaniel married Mary Ann ROSE. Her parents were Ezekiel ROSE and Catharine STITES. Any help would be appreciated.

<< Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence? Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army, another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the Revolutionary War. They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners; men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured. Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags. Thomas McKeam was so hounded by the British that he was forced to move his family almost constantly. He served in the Congress without pay, and his family was kept in hiding. His possessions were taken from him, and poverty was his reward. Vandals or soldiers looted the properties of Dillery, Hall, Clymer, Walton, Gwinnett, Heyward, Ruttledge, and Middleton. At the battle of Yorktown, Thomas Nelson, Jr., noted that the British General Cornwallis had taken over the Nelson home for his headquarters. He quietly urged General George Washington to open fire. The home was destroyed, and Nelson died bankrupt. Francis Lewis had his home and properties destroyed. The enemy jailed his wife, and she died within a few months. John Hart was driven from his wife's bedside as she was dying. Their 13 children fled for their lives. His fields and his gristmill were laid to waste. For more than a year he lived in forests and caves, returning home to find his wife dead and his children vanished. A few weeks later he died from exhaustion and a broken heart. Norris and Livingston suffered similar fates. Such were the stories and sacrifices of the American Revolution. These were not wild eyed, rabble-rousing ruffians. They were soft-spoken men of means and education. They had security, but they valued liberty more. Standing tall, straight, and unwavering, they pledged: "For the support of this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of the divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor." They gave you and me a free and independent America. The history books never told you a lot of what happened in the Revolutionary War. We didn't just fight the British. We were British subjects at that time and we fought our own government! Some of us take these liberties so much for granted...We shouldn't. So, take a couple of minutes while enjoying your 4th of July holiday and silently thank these patriots. It's not much to ask for the price they paid..............

Both my grandfathers and my paternal grandmother were born and raised in Schuyler Co., Il. Thomas Coursey b. 11 March 1874 was raised on a farm approx. 4 and 1/2 miles northeast of Camden, Il. I have not been able to find the exact spot, but it should have been near the old Asheville Post Office. Does anyone have any information about this location? What was the name of the Church and School that stood near the site of the present day White Oak Cemetery? Bethel? White Oak? Where would the records for those two units be today? Lettie Jane Aulgur b. 24 Nov. 1878 m. Thomas Coursey 29 Aug. 1898 in Rushville, Il. was born and raised in the SW rural Littleton area. Thank You, Richard W. Coursey

First the HUFF line. I have always been a bit confused by the data on the HUFFS, and then a kind man cleared it up for me. Daniel HUFF had two wives. So, this is how it looks now. All the HUFFS were related who were from Guilford. I believe there were two sons from the first marriage-one who migrated to Ohio with George Manlove. Son, John was a son of the second marriage to Ann PIKE. Many of his children (including the two girls who married William and Moses Manlove migrated to Schuyler Co., IL. If anyone would like an update of the GEDCOM please let me know. Second. After a great deal of pressuring from an older relative I am going to attempt to show all the United States Manlove connections-through tracking the original eleven children. This will include all wills, articles, land records etc. through seven generations. Much of this I have researched myself. Much has been given to me by other researchers, so I'm not going to do more than compile and edit the material. I will need to be re-embursed for the printing costs. If you are interested please contact me. Linda I have hesitated to do this, as new information seems to come to light all the time-but, as my family pointed out-I need to have a stopping place at some point-send it out and re-do it later if necessary. There are so many associated lines, I can't possibly name them all, but a few are: POLK, LOE, PEMBERTON, CARLISLE, HAYES, WALTON, PARREMORE, CHAMBERS, DAVIS, GREEN, BROWNE, CLARK, BOLLING, DELAMAAS, WILSON, GILLEY, HUFF, HORNEY, CHIPMAN, WHEELER, MINORS, MOLLESTON, LOCHEMANN, CORDRAY, HART, BROOKS, TEAGUE, COMBS, DUNNING, HODGSON, CALDWELL, RHOADES, PIGOTT, TROTTER, WEST, CAMPBELL.
