I show Jesse Knowlton in Montgomery, Jennings, Indiana on the 1830 Census. Then on the 1850 census he is listed as Jesse S Knolton and both Joshua and William are listed with other siblings and the wife of Jesse shows as Hetty born in Del. In the 1880 census William shows his mother born in VA. I did find another Knowlton listed in Jennings Co., Indiana for 1820. This is Stephen Knowton with three males listed in the age range of my Jesse Knowlton. The only other Stephen I see is in the 1800 census in Berne, Albany, NY, the state where Jesse Knowlton was born about 1800/1801. I live out of the country so it is hard for me to find information except on the internet and it is wonderful what can be found this way and by wonderful people like yourself who are willing to help. Thanks so much. Sheri Burk

I have found people who move west from NY to be very difficult to trace. Have checked the Stocking History of Knowltons for you but did not find your Jesse. Have checked your census work: 1900, 1880, 1870, and 1860. Did you notice Jesse's wife was from Virginia? I would guess that they met in the Ohio River valley, the only place where those b in NE and SE usually met. Did you search census for 1850, 1840, and 1830? I do not have access to these. Neighbors in the oldest ones will probably give clues to place of origin. Where in Indiana did they live? elizabeth

I am again reviewing my notes on Jared Knowlton (220) of CT and MA, most from Harlowe Chandler, who is descended from J's brother Roswell. I sent a message to Harlowe, but it is not clear whether he received it. Anyone heard from him lately? I may have an old email address. Elizabeth W. Knowlton

He married Barbara SMITH in 1858 in Marshall, Clark Co, IL but also seemed to live in Terre Haute, Vigo, IN (his daughters Susan, Jessie, Florence, and Hattie) were born there between the years of 1859 and 1863. According to what little information I can find on him, he was born abt. 1836 in Massachussetts, but I have yet to find him on a census, although I found his wife and children in 1880 in Marshall. In 1880, his wife is listed as divorced, but in 1900 as widowed. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Carlisle, I can take things back to point. I'm in the process of collecting additional info to send to Paula. I'm not surprised you didn't find them in Stocking - Elizabeth had checked for me once and not found them. James Alanson KNOWLTON had an older sister Mabel Frances KNOWLTON, born 10 November 1884, most likely in Plainwell, Allegan, MI. She married Harry DELAMATER or DELAMARTER. They remained in Michigan. He had a younger brother Robert Melvin KNOWLTON, born 9 January 1890 in Mackinaw City, Cheyboygan, MI. Hew as married twice and also moved to Northern California. Alanson Lacy KNOWLTON was born 13 November 1856 in Washington, Erie County, Pennsylvania. His older sister Lucena (25 November 1853) and younger brother Melvin (11 December 1860) were born in Belfast, Allegany County, NY. It's likely that he was named for Alanson LACY, son of Elnathan and Nancy (HORTON) LACY and husband of his aunt Sarah Ann KNOWLTON. The LACY's lived in Wyoming County, NY. Sarah was the oldest of 8 children. She was born 16 December 1817 in Mendon, Ontario, NY. Alanson Lacy KNOWLTON's parents were James Palmer KNOWLTON and Mary Frances HART. James was born 6 December 1823 in Freedom, Cattaraugus, NY. On 1 July 1852, he married Mary Frances HART in Belvidere, Allegany, NY. Mary was born 7 November 1830 in Groton, Tompkins, NY. Her parents were Andrew Stout and Florina H. (WHIPPLE) HART. Mary is also my great-grandaunt. In addition to Sarah, James Palmer KNOWLTON's other siblings were Rachel R. (1819-1838), William A. (1821-after 1866), Calista (1827-), Mary B. (1830-), John A. (1832-1892), and Marcus (1835-). Sarah, Rachel, and William were born in Mendon, the rest were born in Freedom. I don't know too much more about his siblings. John A. KNOWLTON married Ursula STEARNS, daughter of Squire and Lydia (SCOTT) STEARNS. They also ended up in Michigan. In the 1850 Census in Amity, Allegany, NY he was working as a farm laborer on the farm of Chauncey and Katurah (STOUT) STEARNS. Chauncey was Ursula's brother; Katurah a 1st cousin of Mary Frances (HART) KNOWLTON I'm also trying to prove that Calista KNOWLTON is the same Calista KNOWLTON that married Gordon STOUT. Gordon was Katurah's brother. The 1900 Census gives October 1826 as her birthdate, while the records from my cousin give 13 August 1827. It's close enough. I've known the 1900 Census birthdate's to be wrong before. It all depends on who gave the information and what the Census heard and wrote down. The parents of these folks are John KNOWLTON and Esther HICKS. John was born 18 February 1796 and died 29 February 1844 in Portage Falls, Allegany (now Wyoming, I think), NY. Esther was born 31 January 1793 and died 19 April 1866 in Belfast, Allegany, NY. They were married 27 February 1815. According to my cousin's information, John and Sarah were both in New York City. I find that puzzling because the 1850 Census gives Vermont as her birthplace; the 1860 Census states New York. I hope this helps.

Hi Bill Hart, I picked up on the thread of your messages with Paula, and then --- in the course of trying to research some of the names in my own database --- found something interesting that I would like to run past you for advice and comment: None of the names mentioned seem to fit with Stocking & the Errata. This could be simply because all of the 19th century dates fall rather late in the century. But, there is only one Alanson KNOWLTON, and his dates and descendants don't seem to fit; and, the other surnames; LACEY, RUMBLE, GLASS, and STILLWELL seem not to be there at all. Can you connect any of these names to earlier occurrences in any venue? I am attracted to this question because I am trying to build a database of KNOWLTONs --- NOT proven to connect to the 1600s earliest Massachusetts lot I am related to a large gang of KNOWLTONs centered in western NY during most of the 1800s; some number of whom moved on to MI --- but not CA. Although I did have a great-grandfather, Charles Pulaski KNOWLTON who lived there for a few years after the Civil War. He was Purser of the SS Senator, moving gold from Sacramento down the coast to Los Angeles. Also managed the Pico House in LA for a few years. I am here in central Connecticut.
