Joe Patterson is correct. The town of Walnut Bottom (also called Jacksonville for many years) is currently in South Newton Twp, which was taken out of Newton Twp. which was taken out of Hopewell Twp. This village (had six house in 1819) went through the following name changes: Frystown, Canada, Jacksonville, and Walnut Bottom. It is important to note that Walnut Bottom is also the name of the road which runs from Carlisle to Shippensburg. So, if your historical notation states that John Doe lived along, near, or on the Walnut Bottom , it may mean a township other than Newton.

Dear Dru, It's an old fashioned term for companion. I'm sure it also means wife in most instances. Patt Fulton

Cumberland was formed from Lancaster in 1750. I don't have any history of Walnut Bottom but the location it's at has always been Cumberland County since 1750. M.

What county was Walnut Bottom located between 1780-1850? I can't find Cumberland County anywhere during that time, which may be the reason why I haven't found anything yet on my family. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Thanks Brian, I also just looked it up and it said 15th century term for spouse. You helped add to that. Thanks again, Dru

Thanks, Dru > Dru, Being an old New Englander, I have come across this many times. Almost always, the term "consort" is used to describe a woman who died while her husband was still living. Had she been widowed, the stone would have said she was "Relict of" so and so. As I said, that is almost always the case. There are rare exceptions, of course, but they seem to have been created by a stonecutter or family member who didn't understand the terminology themselves. This is useful if you have found a woman buried alone, without an obvious husband nearby. If she's called consort, he was still able to have moved after her death, or he could have remarried and ended up buried elsewhere. I hope that helps. Brian

What does "Consort of" mean? I have seen this on tombstones and they have had children. Thanks, Dru

"consort" usually means she's a wife who died before her husband "relict' would be a wife who survived him ----- Original Message ----- From: <DRU2250@aol.com> To: <PACUMBER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: March 03, 2003 10:53 AM Subject: [PACUMBER] Cem Question > What does "Consort of" mean?

It was in the same place as it is now, but was considered Cumberland County. After 1820 it was Perry County. Kathy

Would love a look up if you own any of these. Joseph. married Sarah Stephens from Logans Valley, Pa. Her Father was Giles Stephens II. Maybe someone knows if there is a place to post messages for Mifflin Co?? There are also Pattersons in Cumberland Co. but not sure if this is my line.?? Supposedly Joseph and family travelled on to Ky with a family named Weir.

Where was Juanita Twp. prior to 1820? Dru
