    1. [PAFRANKL] July 20, 1859 Struck by Lightning - PATTERSON
    2. Deb
    3. I found an article in the July 20, 1859 issue of the Valley Spirit describing a lightning strike in which a young son of JAMES PATTERSON was killed. The article intrigued me because I am researching the Patterson family and I believe there may be a family connection. There was no mention of the young boy's name. Only that his father was James Patterson from Roxbury. I found a James Patterson in Roxbury in the 1850 census. He is listed with his wife, Mary, and two twentysomething daughters, Betsy and Margaret, but no son is listed. In the 1860 census, there are two James Pattersons living in Upper Strasburg, but of course I have no way of knowing if either of these two are the men referenced in the 1859 article. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can figure out this young boy's name? Thanks for any help. Deb --------------------------------- Yahoo! Messenger with Voice.

    3. Hi Barb: Yes there is a link I recognize all these names. I don't think we are directly linked though as I think you are connected to the brother of my lines. Thinking about it though if you go back one more generation we would connect ;-) What did you want to know? Would be interested in your descent too as I am doing them all. I was getting so confused with the lines so thought it would work it all out this way and it seems to be working. Still have a lot to put in yet but starting to make more sense. One of Charles (immigrant) and one of John's (immigrant) children married each other too. It is a real tangled web. Gaile P.S.

    1. Re: [PAFRANKL] William IMES
    2. Tink Miller
    3. It appears that William's age is misstated on the 1860 census, causing your difficulty in searching. On the 1850 census, William IMES is listed as age 35, a laborer, born in Maryland; he is with wife Fanny age 33, son Charles age 10, and daughter Mary age 2. So William was only 45 in 1860, not 65. And Fanny was only 45 when she died in 1862. William may have remarried and even had more children. Or he may have joined the Union Army in the war. Residing in the same house in 1850 is a William Carl/Earl? age 21, with wife Mary age 20 and daughter Mary 9 mos old. Fannie and Mary are both from Virginia and are likely sisters. Next door, just as you described, is brother John Imes age 34 and wife Elizabeth also 34 and from Virginia (another sister?). Children are David 10, Mary B. 8, James 6, Esau 4, Caroline 3 and John 1. John is a farmer owning land valued at $800, so brother William and Wm Carl may have worked for him as laborers. Of all the children in the three families, only John's oldest son David had attended school in the past year. On the next page of the 1850 census, just a few homes away, we find another black IMES family - John IMES, age 77 and Susan age 57 (wife?) and Eliza 15 (daughter?). John and Susan are also born in Maryland. My guess would be that this is possibly the father and mother of William and John since all are from Maryland, the ages work, and all are living close together. James Imes, son of John and Elizabeth, was born 1842 in Chambersburg, Franklin Co. Died 5 April 1895, in Carlisle, PA. Married Jane Strange, 22 Oct 1891, in Carlisle. Also in 1860, Esau (Eseau), son of John and Elizabeth, is living with a family named White, in Antrim Township, Greencastle, Franklin Co. They live on a farm valued at almost than $9,000, so Eseau is probably a laborer on the farm, though no occupation is listed. He is described as mulatto. By 1880 he is living in Mississippi, teaching and single, boarding with a family named Ingraham. He married their eldest daughter Catherine Ingraham, 16 June 1883. He was born Oct 1845, Chambersburg, PA; died 8 Nov 1907, Byhalia, MS., son of John and Elizabeth Imes. He applied for disability pension for his Civil War service in MS., 27 Oct 1891. Catherine applied for widow's pension at 11 Dec. 1904. Children: Son, Edward Houston Imes, born 24 Nov 1895; died 27b Nov, 1976. Married Frances ??, date unknown. Daughter - Carrie Anna Imes, b. 10 March 1893, Memphis, TN; d. Aug 1992(?), Memphis; spouse Henry Langford. Caroline Imes, d/o John and Elizabeth, went to Kentucky. Born 1847, in Franklin Co. Died 1896 in Harrodsburg, Mercer Co., KY. Married Peter Johnson, 1875 in Harrodsburg. Mary B Imes, d/o John and Elizabeth, born Chambersburg, 1842. No other info. David, son of John and Elizabeth, born Chambersburg 1840; married Emmaline ?. There was a John Imes who served in the Union Colored Infantry, Co. H, 41st Unit, during Civil War. Don't know if it is the same John Imes. In Feb, 1887, John Imes (I'iames) widow "Eliza E." applied for Civil War pension, in Missouri. Eliza could be Elizabeth. IN Oct. 1891, William Imes (I'iames) applied for disability pension as civil war vet in Missouri. No widow or dependent listed. Co E, 60th MO Infantry (?). In 1860 census, I believe there is an error on William's age. He was 45, not 65 as listed. Fanny is 41. The oldest son, Charles, has left the house. A younger son, William, was born in 1851 is now in the house with Mary age 14 and Margaret age 5. Perhaps they purposely gave a wrong age for William to protect him from civil war service? There is a William IMES, African American on 1880 census: Fayetteville, Franklin, Pennsylvania, enum. dist 96, pg 41 He is age 40, born in Pennsylvania. However, Father's and Mother's birthplace is given as PA, which does not fit your William and Fanny, but I think it may be their son. This William is a Farm Labor, Married, and cannot read/write. The Household Members are Mary, age 30 (spouse), and daughters Mary age 17 and Maggie age 13. It's interesting that the two daughters names are same as daughters of Wm IMES that you are researching. Could be sign of a family naming pattern. Several of the neighboring families of this William of 1880 census are also African Amercan, on pgs 41 and 42. The men are farmers and the women are "keeping house". Sunames are Butler, Keyes, Hunter, Hall, Brown, Burse, Dradon, Pickens, Seane, Ramer. (I may have misread some handwriting on a couple of these). Perhaps if you study the names of the wives in those families you will find possible matches for the IMES female children of William or John. I would check land records and estates/wills to see what happened to John's land when he died, and maybe Orphan's court records to see who took guardianship of the younger children. Who witnessed the documents? Who received an inheritance? If there are death or burial records, that may reveal a lot of info. Look for all the collateral info about the two children of John that you do have info on - school graduation, marriage, death, land/tax records, etc. Also newspaper items. Sometimes family members are named as guests attending a family event. I culled this information from Ancestry census records and civil war pension records, and their list of World Family Trees. Hope that will give you some ideas for further research as you collect the documentation.

    3. Requesting look-up for William IMES, an African-American, who at the time of the 1860 Census was 65 years old, lived in Mercersburg, Montgomery Twp, Franklin County, with his wife, Fannie (age 61), three children: Margaret (age 5), Mary (age 14) and William (age 9) and another relative, Henry IMES (age 38). The family seems to have vanished after 1860, except we were able to find the wife, Fannie IMES, in the records of a Dietrich Funeral Home, Greencastle, PA, that were on file in the Franklin County Historical Society, listing her death in 1862 with the notation, "Mrs. Imes was wife of William near this place." Thus, William was alive in 1862. Ten years earlier, at the time of the 1850 Census, the family lived two doors from William's brother, John IMES, his wife, Elizabeth, and children: David (age 10), Mary (age 8), James (age 6), Esau (age 4), Caroline (age 3) and John (age 1). Tragically, the parents, John and Elizabeth IMES, both died in 1854-1855 and left seven orphaned children who most likely were taken in my neighbors. Two eventually made their way to Oberlin College, became teachers, and subsequently settled in Mississippi (Esau) and Kansas (Caroline). We have never been able to discover what happened to William IMES or John IMES' 4 children or William's 3 children. Would appreciate any look-ups for William IMES (1815- after 1862) and the children by this list and/or suggestions for additional research. Many thanks, Carol Phila., PA

    3. The Honorourable William MaClay was the first U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania. He lived in Fannettsburg, Franklin Co. Perhaps there is a link. If so, let me know please. His daughter, Catherine Irwin MaClay (1799-1873) was married to Dr. John Peebles Geddes on 27 Apr 1825 in the Lower Path Valley Presbyterian Church in Franklin County by the Rev. A. A. McGinley.

    3. Dear Gail Thanks for your effort. I have spent all day tracking all the McClay/Maclay names of Franklin Co, PA. I do not find where my William fit in but I suspect that he does. It seems that all in that area were related from the John and Charles you mentioned. I also found a website on the history of Franklin Co and it seems that because of the politics of Britian that protestant Scots were sent to Ireland. Then from later strife they left Ireland for PA. This seems to fit the Maclay of Franklin Co and possibly my great grandfather who looked more Scottish then Irish. I still have not found how the 1850 household of Ruhannah Barnhart with William, Mary and Joseph McClay fit with the McClays of Franklin Co. I suspect that Ruhannah could have been an older sister of the McClays, married and widowed but still no facts to support this. Yet, it is really the only William McClay in Pa that seems to fit my ancestor. Since Ann Seavolt was living in Montgomery Co in 1850 also and William and Ann were married by 1854 it would make sense. Best Regard, Nance --------------------------------- Get your email and more, right on the new Yahoo.com

    1. [PAFRANKL] Maclay, Culbertson and McCune Franklin Co Pa. etc.
    2. GAIL THOMAS
    3. Hi Nance: Well I did my best to find them but no luck. I don't have them in my database and I read through the Maclays of Lurgan book and couldn't find them mentioned either. I looked through the Carrol co illinois book and the closest I could come was for Mackay, W. J. but his line was from Scotland and no mention of anything close to Seavolt or Pa. I will keep you in mind as I hunt as that Seavolt name I don't think I will forget. I am descended from John Maclay of the mountain that married Elizabeth Culbertson daughter of Samuel Culbertson who was the son of Alexander Culbertson that was killed by the indians at Sidling Hill when his militia met up with the indians that had attacked Fort McCord. I know very little about my John Maclay. I descend from their daughter Eleanor Culbertson that married William McCune. I also don't know much about William McCune either. My Culbertsons were members of the Rocky Spring Church and my Maclays i believe were members of the Middle Spring Churc h. So many and all named the same is so hard to figure out. There were two brothers Charles and John Maclay that came to Pa from Ireland. Charles Maclay's line there is a lot on but my line is John and not as much on his descendents. At least I have not found much.

    2. Bonnie I don't know the name of man you are asking about at Welsh Run. I will forward the information that my cousin sent to me. John L. Raymer [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ______________________________________________________ I inherited a project this summer I hope I can handle. (Note: My cousin is a master brick layer and stone cutter. I know he will do justice to the project. JR) Found my gg grandfather's grave near Welsh Run,PA. His wife, also his father (an American Revolutionary Soldier) and consort plus brothers and sisters and individuals that married into the family. It is located on the former Stech Farm in Montgomery Twp. has been neglected for some 20 years, but many of the stones are still readable. A distant cousin and I decided to restore it, give the soldier a marker, cut down many trees,exterminate the woodchucks, clear the ground , plant grass seed set gravestones and rebuild the dry native stone wall that has fallen down around the perimeter. Plan on leaving, with travel trailer, the middle of Sept., and may stay at Cowan's Gap State Park. Taking brother Bob along. I drove out by car this summer, first time to Pa., stayed in Greencastle. Like that town. One day while searching another cemetery in Welsh Run a gentleman approached us, he was working on a church next door, he ask who we were looking for, when we gave the name Stech his mouth dropped and eyes opened wide. He made us follow him to his farm 1/2 mile down the road. It turned out he had restored an 1897 Steck Buggy and his family had married into the Steck's. Spent the rest of the afternoon there, taking pictures,going thru scrapbooks, and learning new names. The Steck's employed Blacksmith's and Wheelwrights in Welsh Run and turned out 40-50 wagons and buggies a year, which sold in MD,VA and PA

    2. Kathy
    3. To anyone that can assist in direction for solving my brickwall, I would greatly appreciate the help. I live in Florida and am unable to travel to Pennsylvania--though I did have the opportunity to travel there once a few years back... I'm looking for the parents of my gggg grandfather Johannes Gruber and when and where this family came into America. I have extensive data and information on both Johannes and Peter's descendent's and am looking for their ancestors. THANKING YOU ALL IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP THAT YOU CAN PROVIDE! SINCERELY, KATHY 1. UNKNOWN1 He married UNKNOWN. Children of UNKNOWN and UNKNOWN are: 2. i. HENRICH2 GRUBER, ** 3. ii. JOHANNES GRUBER, born about 1772; died 1803, Franklin County, Pennsylvania. 4. iii. PETER GRUBER, born about 1776; died about March 1819, Franklin County, Pennsylvania. ** I'm not sure if Henrich is actually John and Peter's brother or possibly father. I just listed there because he does show up in the church records with them. Will indicates that John and Peter were brothers. Henrich may have been uncle or cousin. Notes for HENRICH GRUBER: Note 1: This Henry according to Salem Evangelical Church records, for Pleasant Hall, Pennsylvania, gave 3 pounds and 10 shillings for the purchase of property for a church, school, and cemetery there. Note 2: From the M. A. Gruber research at the Berks County Historical Society, Reading, Pennsylvania --- Miscellaneous Gruber's (Franklin, Juniata, and Perry Counties)- (1) Henry Gruber (also Gruver). In the census of 1790, there is also shown a Henery Gruver as of Franklin County, Pennsylvania, the family apparently consisting of himself, wife, 3 sons of 16 years and upward, 1 son under 16 years and 2 daughters. He is very likely the Henry Gruber in connection with those estate letters of administration, which were granted on March 15, 1819 at Chambersburg, Pennsylvania to Susanna Gruber and Benjamin Gruber. The estate appears to have been of considerable value, but the names of the heirs were not ascertained at the time research was made. He may possibly be the father of Peter Gruber (Gruver), the head of the Peter Gruber (Gruver) line described in (o) above. The question is raised as to whether there may not be some close relation between this Henry Gruber (or Gruver) and Henry Gruber (born in 1747), youngest son of the immigrant Henry Gruber of the Berks County branch, or Henry Gruber, of the head of the Henry Gruber (Gruver) of the Lancaster County branch. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I do have one indirect descendent buried on the Letter Kenney Depot property. 6. JACOB3 GRUBER (PETER2, UNKNOWN1)8 was born March 06, 1802 in Guilford Township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania9, and died 1848 in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. He married HANNAH KIEFFER10 November 15, 1827, daughter of ISAAC KIEFFER and EPHIA UNKNOWN. She was born January 15, 1808 in Franklin County, Pennsylvania11, and died September 17, 1875 in Franklin County, Pennsylvania12. Notes for JACOB GRUBER: Jacob Gruber, Hanna Keefer was of Hamilton, Franklin County, Pennsylvania and associated with the German Reformed Church of Chambersburg.
