Carol: Just to set your mind at ease, I went back again and personally, visually re-checked the US 1830 Census for New Castle, Rockingham, NH. I'm positive. The following *ARE* definitely listed: page 210, line 1 = Benjamin EMERSON line 2 = Joseph EMERSON line 17 = Christopher EMERSON page 211, line 20 = William EMERSON line 22 = Christopher EMERSON line 24 = Henry EMERSON line 25 = William EMERSON page 212, line 4 = Elizabeth EMERSON line 25 = Ephraim EHANSON (best reading--probably same surname) page 213, line 13 = Joseph AMAZEEN There is also a "Lydia AMAZEEN" listed in Portsmouth - page 145, line 22 The census taker was obviously going by what the surname "sounded like" to him, rather than worrying about "correct spelling" (standardized spelling is pretty much a modern convention anyway). The fact that there are no mutliple "EMERSON" families prior to this census, no "EMERSON" families listed in 1840, and a whole bunch of "AMAZEEN" families that otherwise are completely missing--I think we can safely assume that AMAZEEN is what is meant for the above entries. I find its always better to look at the original films yourself, when you are able, rather than rely on someone else's "transcript". ~ Carolyn Depp ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol White" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 05, 2006 12:57 PM Subject: [NHROCKIN] Re: Children of Wm & Jane Jones (Amazeen) AMAZEEN & 1830 census > CArolyn > > Yes, those children you listed for William C. and Jane Jones Amazeen are > the same ones i have. > I don't have access to Ancestry and therefore can't see the census results > that you posted below, but I have seen a transcription of the New Castle > census for 1830 and the entry you have below was listed as Brown?, > William.

I have spent most of the day trying to research whether or not the "Mary JONES" who married Joseph AMAZEEN (1761/66-1857, son of Joseph and Dorcas) was the daughter of William & Jane JONES [as it appears from William JONES' probate documents] or the daughter of Samuel JONES & Mary PINKHAM [as claimed by Charlie Gale and Dana Cobb--but not documented by them] I am inclined to believe that Mary, wife of Joseph AMAZEEN, was indeed the daughter of William & Jane. Supposedly the "Mary JONES, dau of Samuel" was from Dover, but I can find no birth or christening entry for her in the collections of the Dover NH Historical Society. I also checked the Vital Records of Rye, NH, but found no family of a "Samuel JONES" there. I was able to locate the probate records of a "Samuel JONES" of Somersworth, husbandman, who fits into the right time period. His will was made 1 Apr 1758 and proved 11 May 1774. Legatees include his wife *Mary*, sons John, Ebenezer & Benjamin, and daughters Abigail FALL, Dorcas GOWELL, Elizabeth SANDS, Esther HEARD, Lois WENTWORTH , *Mary HORSOM* and other relatives. I think it is likely that the "Mary, dau of Samuel" found by Gale and Cobb actually married into the HORSOM, rather than the AMAZEEN family. So--unless we turn up something further later on--I'm officially making the 'switch' and listing our "Mary JONES" as the "Mary, daughter of William", based on William's probate records. ~ Carolyn Depp ----- Original Message ----- From: Carol White To: Carolyn G Depp Cc: [email protected] ; [email protected] Sent: Thursday, March 30, 2006 3:45 PM Subject: Re: BEAL-WHITE-YEATON Tangle [Snip] 1) Mary and Sarah Jones were indeed sisters, the only children of William and Jane Jones. He leaves in his will (dated 15 June, 1795) 4/5 of estate to Mary Amazeen and 1/5 to Jane Jones Amazeen, dau of Sarah after his widow's decease or remarriage. Tax list for 1797 and '98 list property as "widow Jane Jones", but after this says 'estate of Wm. Jones dec'd', so she might have died or remarried (don't see her on New Castle marriage lists, though). A petition on this estate was made on behalf of the above heirs in 1806 by Joseph Amazeen "husband of only surviving child of dec'd" and by William Amazeen "husband of the only child of the other daughter dec'd", "the 2 daughters being the only children of the deceased". I wish I had something more to offer, but I don't. Carol

I agree with Carol that the original "Shadrach & Rachel" BELL couple are much too early to have been Grace BELL's parents--even though there is a (totally undocumented) pedigree posted online that states this. This original couple did also have a son named "Shadrach", but I do not know his wife's name. If Grace married Barnabus YEATON in 1775, then she was probably born about 1754-1757--a bit of a stretch to even consider her this "Shadrach & Rachel"s granddaughter through a son Shadrach, I think. Although I am not completely certain who Grace's father was, I do have some further information about her family. Her brother, who was referred to as "Joseph BELL, *Jr.*, died in 1809, leaving his estate to his siblings and their heirs. [His father *may* have been a "Joseph BELL, *Sr.*, but sometimes the "Jr./Sr." titles didn't necessarily mean fatther/son but only older/younger in the same town]. The Death Notice of Joseph BELL, Jr. published in the "Columbian Centinal", newspaper was dated 31 May 1809 and gave his age at death as "45 years". If so, he would have been born about 1764. Rockingham Co, NH Probate Records, vol 39 (1808-1811), p75, #8125. FHL #16202 Will of Joseph BELL of New Castle, Mariner, dated 17 May 1809 and proved at Exeter 3 June 1809 Mentions: brother Shadrack BELL niece Elizabeth YEATON niece Margaret TREDICK heirs of sister Grace YEATON, deceased heirs of sister Abigail SMITH, deceased Estate included "my 1/2 of mansion house & land", 1/2 of Schooner "Sukey", and land in Barnet twp, Topham, Vermont. Executor = brother Shadrach BELL. Witnesses = Henry PRESCOTT, Hall J. LOCKE, Nathan PRIEST From the will we know that Grace (Bell) YEATON had siblings Joseph BELL Jr., Shadrack BELL, Abigail (Bell) SMITH and another sister (name unknown) who married a TREDICK. I have been working on the TREDICK family for a decade and the only marriage I know of between a Miss BELL and a Mr. TREDICK is the marriage of Lucretia BELL to William TREDICK on 12 Dec 1784. But Lucretia is believed to be the daughter of Meshach (Jr.) and Mary BELL and as far as I know she did not have a daughter Margaret.[Lucretia & William had a Mary, John, Jane, William, Lucretia, and Elizabeth--none of which are mentioned by Joseph BELL Jr. in the will]. If this same Lucretia is Grace's unnamed sister, then why didn't Joseph Jr. mention Lucretia's two known brothers--John and George BELL--also? I tend from this to think that Lucretia is *not* the mother of Joseph Jr.'s niece, Margaret TREDICK.

I too have a JENKINS line and show the "Philadelphia JENKINS" you have been discussing in my database. I do not know her correct parentage either. I do show that she was born 8 Oct 1784 at Kittery, York, ME -- which ties into the current theories about her being from the Kittery JENKINS clan. [Remember that Kittery, ME is just across the channel from New Castle, NH...]. There is no indication of *where* Philadelphia was born (or who her father was) in the New Castle Town Records entry of her family with Barnabus YEATON, although her full birthdate is given there. If the family is a local one (ie: resident in New Castle), it is common for the father's name to be given in these family group entries--so this may be another indication that Philadelphia's family did not live directly in New Castle. In the US 1850 Census her birthplace is given as "New Hampshire", but in the US 1860 Census, it says "Maine". Of course there is no way of knowing who told the census taker "NH" or if he just 'assumed it' by default. ~ Carolyn Depp ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, April 04, 2006 7:38 PM Subject: [NHROCKIN] Re: WHITE family of New Castle, New Hampshire > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/iQB.2ACE/721.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 > > Message Board Post: > > I'll look forward to your e-mail later this week.

The reference I think you're referring to is: The Tarleton FAmily by Charles William Tarleton pub. 1900. I couldn't find in there that Abigail Beal m. John Tarlton. All I found was that JOhn Tarlton 1828 - 1863 was the son of Elias and Ann Jenkins Yeaton Tarlton NOT Abby J. Yeaton as you wrote below (probably a typo). I just thought I'd clarify that point. Maybe the New Castle records have the rest of the information or the New CAstle Families book.

CArolyn Yes, those children you listed for William C. and Jane Jones Amazeen are the same ones i have. I don't have access to Ancestry and therefore can't see the census results that you posted below, but I have seen a transcription of the New Castle census for 1830 and the entry you have below was listed as Brown?, William. Are you positive that it looks like Emerson/Amazeen? The person doing the transcription was quite familiar with all the surnames in New CAstle at that time and still thought the name was Brown. The transcription did list a Joseph, Christopher and William Amazeen and an Elizabeth Emerson. If what you say is right, then there were two William Amazeen's in New CAstle in 1830.

I agree that is probably the family our Philadelphia b. 1784 is from, but she's not mentioned in the book and I'll have to do more research on that family.

This is what was writen: Angie- I think I have an answer to your Philadelphia Jenkins question. I believe she was a Kittery Jenkins. Philadelphia seems to be a family name there. Get OLD KITTERY AND HER FAMILIES by Stackpole. The Jenkins family history starts on page 551. It covers 6 generations. We are probably distant cousins as I have a few Jenkins links. Phil Shepard

White through his son Isaac who married Rebecca Tredick, but also through Mary C. White who married Thomas Beals and from there through CAroline Beals who married Joseph Yeaton. I have been working on the Jenkins family but no luck so far in finding Philadelphia's parents Barnabus Yeaton's parents were Richard Yeaton and Grace Bell. Grace had a brother Joseph and sister Abigail but I'm unsure who her parents were. Richard Yeaton's parents were Richard Yeaton and Margaret Crucy. Grace couldn't be a daughter of Shadrach and Rachel Bell as Shadrach died before 16 Sep 1723 or did you mean his son Shadrach. I'm not sure who his son married but I do know the son was alive in 1723. I'd be interested in your reference for Shadrach being the father of Grace How are our two families connected?

In my records, I have that the Joseph AMAZEEN buried in the private Amazeen Cemetery lot in New Castle who died 30 Oct 1847, "age 86" was: Joseph AMAZEEN, born 6 Mar 1763, son of John & Mehitable AMAZEEN. His wife (buried beside him) was Mary T. AMAZEEN, born 1764, daughter of Christopher AMAZEEN & Mary TREDICK, who died 18 Mar 1824. ~ Carolyn Depp ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol White" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 03, 2006 8:23 AM Subject: [NHROCKIN] Jones Tangle [Snip] > Also, in the private Amazeen cemetery lot in New CAstle there's a Joseph > Amazeen d.

Some families get so "stuck" on a certain given name that it guarantees headaches for later researchers! The AMAZEEN families of New Castle always seemed to have a "Joseph" and often a "William". The following is a summary of the various "Joseph AMAZEEN" cousins I know about who were born before 1850: 1. Joseph AMAZEEN - born 1710-1713 at New Castle, son of Christopher AMAZEEN & Martha MOORE; died 1754 at New Castle. Married: Hannah BROWN on 27 Jan 1731/2 at Hampton Falls, NH 2. Joseph AMAZEEN - called "Jr.", born 1736, son of Joseph AMAZEEN & Hannah BROWN; buried 16 June 1824 at Portsmouth, NH. Married: "Dorcas" 3. Jospeh AMAZEEN - born 1761-1766, son of Joseph AMAZEEN, Jr. and wife "Dorcas"; died 6 Mar 1857 at New Castle. Married: (1) Mary JONES on 16 Dec 1787 and (2) Dorothea AMAZEEN, widow of Daniel TREFETHEN before 1830. 4. Joseph AMAZEEN - born 6 Mar 1763 at New Castle, son of John AMAZEEN and wife "Mehitable"; died 30 Oct 1847 at New Castle. Married: Mary T. AMAZEEN (dau of Christopher AMAZEEN & Mary TREDICK) on 18 Dec 1785 at New Castle. 5. Joseph AMAZEEN - born 1775 at New Castle, son of Christopher AMAZEEN & Mary TREDICK; died after 1812. Married: "Mrs. Susanna SHANNON" on 24 Nov 1799 at New Castle 6. Joseph Jones AMAZEEN - born 27 Dec 1811 at New Castle, son of William C. AMAZEEN & Jane Jones AMAZEEN; died before 1896. Married: "Elizabeth W." 7. Joseph AMAZEEN, born 1813-1814 (and christened as an adult 2 May 1841 at St. John's Church, Portsmouth, NH) ; died 20 Apr 1880 at Portsmouth. Married: Mary Elizabeth MORAN - 5 May 1833 at Portsmouth. [I don't know his parentage]. --this couple *might* be the same as #10, if his birth is approximate-- 8. Joseph R. AMAZEEN - born 16 Feb 1817 at New Castle, son of Christopher AMAZEEN & Mehitable RAND; died 21 July 1891 in Rockingham Co, NH. Married: Sophia C. BROWN abt 1836 9. Joseph AMAZEEN - married Mary FOSS, b. 5 Dec 1819, daughter of Benjamin Marden FOSS and Dorcas SHAPELY [History of the Town of Rye, by Langdon Parsons] ---this couple *might* be the same as #10-- 10. Joseph W. AMAZEEN - born 30 June 1817 at New Castle, son of William AMAZEEN & ELizabeth BERRY; died 25 Mar 1893 also at New Castle. Married: (1) "Mary E." before Oct 1850; married (2) "Elizabeth" abt 1854-1856. --this couple *might* be the same as either #7 or #9-- 11. Joseph AMAZEEN - born 24 Nov 1831 at New Castle, son of Benjamin AMAZEEN & Lydia PAINE; died 5 Mar 1915 at New Castle. Married: ? As you can see, couples #3, 4, 7, 9, & 10 all involve a "Joseph and Mary AMAZEEN"--so assigning the correct children (or tombstones) can be 'iffy'. Among those listed simply as "child of Joseph" or "child of Joseph and Mary (Molly)" are: 1. The "Mary AMAZEEN" b. 16 Sep 1796, who married Joseph W. BICKFORD in 1817. Her death cert says she is a "dau of Joseph and Mary (Molly) AMAZEEN"--which ones? 2. The "Dorothy AMAZEEN" b. 27 Oct 1800, who married John YEATON on 20 Oct 1823 in New Castle. New Castle town records of her family state simply that she is a "daughter of Joseph". 3. The "Abigail AMAZEEN", b. 1766 who married married Richard NEAL on 18 Dec 1784 at New Castle. 4. The "Sarah AMAZEEN", b. 21 Oct 1782 who married Capt. Robert WHITE, Jr. on 13 Nov 1800. Probate documents for a "Joseph AMAZEEN" of Portsmouth, trader, who died about June 1824 indicate he had a dau who was the wife of "Richard NEAL", a son Nathaniel, and another daughter, "Sarah WHITE". This Joseph's (second?) wife at the time of his death was "Lydia" (prob. THOMPSON) 5.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: White Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/iQB.2ACE/721.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Dear Carol, Thank you very much for setting me on the correct path. So many with the same name gets very confussing. Yes, I am a direct decendant of William Cooper White through his daughter Mary C. White that married Thomas Beal. I am also searching for the Bell family from the New Castle area and the Jenkins family. Philadelphia Jenkins was born in New Castle NH about 8 Oct 1784. I have no idea who her father was but she married Barnabus Crucy Yeaton about 8 Nov 1801 in New Castle, NH Also trying to find the Bell family from Grace Bell born abt. 1755 the daughter of Shadrach Bell and his wife Rachel. Grace Bell married Richard Yeaton about 1775. Mehitable Bell who married William Cooper White may also be connected to Grace Bell who married Richard Yeaton but, I have no idea if this is true or not. Just thought that back then, many families in small areas married the sons and daughters from the same families. Thank you again for the correct path to follow. Respectfully Yours, Angie

This is NOT the Nathan who married Mary/Margaret Lang. I've been researching this family for many, many years and have finally figured out the line of descent by researching deeds, wills, probates, etc. etc. First there was Nathan White b. abt 1640, d. 1698 who married Salome Jackson Wyatt. Children; William, Nathan, Salome and Richard. Nathan b. 1677 d. bef 24 Jun 1747 m. Elizabeth Robinson. Children: Soloman (see above), Nathan, Joshua, Robert and Elizabeth. Nathan b. 1702, d. 1772 m. Elizabeth. Children: John, Joshua, Abigail, Nathan and probably others. Nathan bpt. 23 Mar 1739/40 d. aft 5 Jul 1792 and bef 21 Apr 1797 m. Mary/Margaret Lang bpt. 12 Jun 1737, 6 Jan 1763. Children: Abigail, William Cooper, Nathan and perhaps others. My husband is descended from William Cooper White. Can I give you any further help? Are you also related to this White family? Carol
