Seems only one or two researchers seem to have my 3rdg.grandfather, William Wilson Davis, as a son of Elijah and Desire Davis. According to my G.Grandfather's S.A.R. application, dated Apr 23, 1917, he did indeed have a son William Wilson. Also, and I quote from Revolutionary Soldiers of Warren County Pennsylvania, page 27, "He had a family of six sons and three daughters." also "According to family records, Elijah Davis and his wife Desire Lyttle had the following children: Abraham, Susannah, John, Sarah, Isaac, Elijah, William, Elizabeth, James." Would love to share info I have on my line, with any you might have on the other lines. Please email me.

Hi, I really appreciate the prompt response to Jody's inquiry. It helped me a lot. I will start this by trying to answer your questions first. Darius Mead DAVIS was the son of Abraham DAVIS and Ruth MEAD. Abraham was the son of Elijah DAVIS and Desire (Desiah?) LYTELL (LITTELL?). Ruth was the daugther of Darius MEAD II, I show her as 1 of 11 children. These are the Meadville Meads. Darius M. DAVIS and his wife, Margaret Emiline FRANK, were my great great grandparents. One of their daughters, Hattie, married Abraham J. HAZELTINE. Darius and Margaret had 6 children. Their son, Albert Allan DAVIS, was my great grandfather. Another of their daughters, Adelaide (Ada?) married Frank BARTLETT. I have a couple of pictures of the 60 th wedding anniversary of Darius and Margaret. One of the pictures is of them, their children and grandchildren. To the best of my knowledge everyone was there, with the exception of Adelaide and her husband. Her portrait was at the back of the picture, and I believe she must have died by that time. I show her as having been born in 1856, but both Edward and Alison show her as being born in 1842, I will have to see what I can ascertain. At least now I know where she was born. Sheila, the reply you sent shows that Abraham V. PORTER and Margaret SNIDER (SNYDER) had 13 children, nine of whom grew to maturity. I show 11, but don't have dates of death for all of them, so the ones who died earlier may be among them. I have some names different than you. You show Maria, Sarah, Alice, Emma J., John W., Norman, William, Delia and Belle. I have Hannah Maria, Sarah Abagail, Alice Iantha, Emore Jane (Emma J.?), John Westey (Wesley?), Norman Abraham, 2 Williams, Rosalia Adell, Arabel Josephine, Letitia Isadora. Pat, the info from Shiela included info regarding 'our' Nellie HOUGTHLING (HOUGHTALING). Her name may have been Nelling, and her father may have been Willis H. HOUGHTLING of Freehold. Willis had a hardware business in Freehold Township, Bear Lake p.o.(I believe Freehold is or was in the area of Warren Co., PA) Nellie married Robert PORTER, and their was was Abraham Van Gorter (Gordon) PORTER. Alison, the parents of Margaret Emeline FRANK were Capt. John FRANK and Betsy (Elizabeth) DEVENDORF (DIEFENDORF?). I show Margaret as one of seven children. Also, I would be very interested in having the name of the person you mentioned that might look for Adelaides obit, and maybe some additional info. Well, this has turned into a much longer email than I intended. Hope I didn't bore anyone, or worse yet, confuse anyone. I will say goodnight for now, but for your added enjoyment, please read further. This was sent to me by Jody. I WANT----- I WANT ancestors with names like Rudimentary Montagnard or Melchizedick von Steubenhoffmannshild or Spetznatz Gianfortoni, not William Brown or John Hunter or Mary Abbott. I WANT ancestors who could read and write, had their children baptized in recognized houses of worship, went to school, purchased land, left detailed wills (naming a huge extended family as legatees), had their photographs taken once a year – subsequently putting said pictures in elaborate isinglass frames annotated with calligraphic inscriptions, and carved voluble and informative inscriptions on their headstones. I WANT relatives who managed to bury their predecessors in established, still-extant (and indexed) cemeteries. I WANT family members who wrote memoirs, who enlisted in the military as officers and who served in strategically important (and well documented) skirmishes. I WANT relatives who served as councilmen, schoolteachers, county clerks and town historians. I WANT relatives who ‘religiously’ wrote in the family Bible, journaling every little event and detailing the familial relationship of every visitor. In the case of immigrant progenitors, I WANT them to have arrived only in those years wherein passenger lists were indexed by National Archives, and I WANT them to have applied for citizenship, and to have done so only in those jurisdictions which have since established indexes. I WANT relatives who were patriotic and clubby, who joined every patrimonial society they could find, who kept diaries, and listed all their addresses, who had paintings made of their horses, and who dated every piece of paper they touched. I WANT forebears who were wealthy enough to afford, and to keep for generations, the tribal homestead, and who left all the aforementioned pictures and diaries and journals intact in the library. BUT MOST OF ALL – I WANT RELATIVES I CAN FIND

According to her gravestone and death notice, REBECCA ANN ADKINS was born 30 December 1812, died 26 February 1894 in Warren Co., PA and is buried in the Leonhart Cemetery in Grunderville. She married William Perry BARBER 18 October 1835 in Susquehanna Co., PA. By 1840, they were in Warren Co. Census records and death certificates of her children give varying places of birth for Rebecca - PA., VT, and NY. To further complicate things, her oldest daughter, Mary Sophronia Barber became a Mormon, and in two different LDS records, Rebecca's maiden name is listed as FARMER. The "story" is that Rebecca's parents were killed by Indians and she was adopted by John D. Adkins. Another part of the story believes that Rebecca herself was Indian. Can anyone help with this puzzle? I'm particularly looking for Rebecca's birthplace and parents. Thanks very much. Sally Shaner sshaner@alaweb.com

I am looking for the wife of Jamon Beeman. She is also my 2nd gr grandmother. Her name is Mary Ann and she was born in PA about 1813. I have been able to follow her through three marriages and know that she was still living in Grant Co. WI in 1880 where on that census she says that her parents were born in New Jersey. I think that Mary Ann m. Jamon Beeman there in Warren or McKean Cos. PA about 1830 since their children were born 1831-1833 at Quaker Hill, Warren Co, PA. That area I thought would be in Kinzua Twp on the 1830 census. I checked that census for families with a dau age 15-20 and then checked to see which of these families were born in New Jersey. This is what I found: Sylvanus Marsh, Jonathan Marsh, Stephen Hadley and Jonathan Pound qualified. Jonathan Marsh was then in the 1850 census for Lafayette, McKean Co where the Beemans were living. The McKean Co History says that he helped lay out the road through McKean Co. My reasoning may be wrong, but this is why I have been researching the Marsh family. Marsh and Pound were both Quakers in NJ before settling here. I feel there is some tie to the Quakers and I have been studying them. I already have 1878 Atlas of Warren Co. township map, History of Warren Co (1887) William S. Marsh. I have a Rev. War record for Simeon Marsh. I have checked the deeds for McKean & Warren and Jamon and Mary Ann Beeman sold land 21 Apr 1838 in Elk twp a part of Tract 5547 on the border of New York to Joseph Clindenin. This is also a Quaker family. I went to a Quaker History Conference and bought a book: A Quaker Promise Kept, by Lois Barton. It is about the Philadelphia Friends' Work with the Allegany Senecas, 1795-1960. I think this work brought the Quakers there originally. I still have not located their Quaker records, but I do have a lot of Marsh Quaker records in PA & NJ. Can anyone help me with this problem? Gwen Boyer Bjorkman gwenbj@seanet.com

Hi, Sheila, Does the Schenk book say anything at all about Cyrenius, Cyrus, Daniel B., Elijah, Experience, or Hannah Pelton BROWN (Hannah m. Joseph ARTERS, and Experience m. Loren? WICKWIRE)? Or, is there anything at all about any TEAL/TEALL/TEEL? Their names were Charles M. (after whom Teal Hill Road got named in Sugar Grove), John Pember (m. Jane CARPENTER; d. 1845), Jane (m. Elijah BROWN; d. 1848), Lucretia (m. George STEVENS, Maria, and Ursula. I realize these are a lot of names. I hope the Schenk book has an index. Any help would be appreciated.
