He was admitted to the bar and practiced in Mansfield, where he held many local offices. He was associate judge of the court of common pleas in 1820 and 1827, and was elected a Democrat to the Twenty-third Congress in 1833. He won reelection for the following term, then retired from public office. Patterson died in Van Wert, Ohio. George Washington Patterson {11 November 1799-15 October 1879}: representative from New York, and brother of William Patterson, also a representative from New York. Born in Londonderry, New Hampshire, Patterson attended Londonderry public schools and the Pinkerton Academy. In 1818 he moved to New York, where he settled in Genesee County and manufactured fanning mills. In 1825 he moved to Leicester, New York, and extended his efforts to farming and manufacturing farm tools. Patterson was Leicester commissioner of highways, justice of the peace, state assembly man and for several years speaker of the house, and basin commissioner. In 1841 he moved to Westfield, New York, where he administered the Chautauqua land office. In 1847 he was a delegate to the state constitutional convention, and in 1848 he was elected lieutenant governor of New York. Patterson continued to serve in various public offices after he left the position of lieutenant governor, including chairman of the harbor commission, quarantine commissioner of the Port of New York, and supervisor and president of the board of education. In 1856 he was delegate to the Republican National Convention in Philadelphia, and again in 1860 in Chicago. Patterson was elected as a Republican to the Forty-fifth Congress {1877 to 1879}; he did not run for reelection, but retired to Westfield, where he died.

    1. Fwd: [PATTERSON-L] question?
    2. This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --part0_921045960_boundary Content-ID: <[email protected]_out.mail.aol.com.1> Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII In response to your query about Patterson's in Bristol and Easton, PA, my family is from the Bristol, PA, area and I know that a brother of my great grandfather was a vice-president of a railroad in northeastern PA. My grandfather had a brother named William who gave birth to a son named William. This son would have been born in the late 1800s. He had a brother Howard and sisters Sarah, Mildred, Margaret, and Mabel. Margaret married a Thomas Armstrong and had two sons--John and Raymond. Raymond had a band at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City. My father is Charles and he was named after an uncle of his. Perhaps there is a relation here. My father has lost touch with all of his relatives. His brothers are all dead though there are still two children of his one brother who still live in the Philly area. Do you have any more info.? Do you know if the relatives in Easton ever had a past relative who worked on a railroad? My father's father worked for the Pennsylvania RR. Other brothers of my father who were all born in the late 1910s to 1920s are Walter, Harold, Robert and Edwin. Does any of this sound familiar? My father was raised in Eddington, PA, just off of State St. and Highway 1. Bristol was the nearest big town and he went there a lot. He remembers the opening of the Burlington-Bristol Bridge. Hope we can make a connection here.

    1. [PATTERSON-L] THE PATTERSON FAMILY BOOK
    2. John Patterson {10 February 1771-7 February 1848}: representative from Ohio and half-brother of Pennsylvania representative Thomas Patterson. Patterson was born in Little Creek Township, Pennsylvania, but moved in 1778 with his parents to the town now called Pattersons Mills, Pennsylvania. {It was named for his family, who became prominent residents.} He attended the public schools there before the family moved once again, to St. Clairsville, Ohio, where John became a hardware merchant. From 1807 to 1808 he was the first mayor of St. Clairsville and a member of the State house of representatives. Patterson was associate judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Belmont County from 1810 to 1815, a state senator from 1815 to 1818, and a Democratic representative to the Eighteenth Congress. After serving one term Patterson returned to his business and took up farming. He died in St. Clairsville. William Patterson {4 June 1789-14 August 1838}: representative from New York. Born in Londonderry, New Hampshire, William was the older brother of George Washington Patterson, who followed in his footsteps in many respects. William attended the Londonderry public schools, then moved to Rensselaerville, New York, in 1815; he left that town the following year to move to Lyons, New York, where he began manufacturing and selling fanning mills {agricultural machines that winnow grain by blowing it through riddles and sieves}. In 1822 he moved to a farm near Warsaw, New York; he moved into the town itself in 1837 and there held a succession of public offices. He was elected as a Republican to the Twenty-fifth Congress and served just one year before he died, in Warsaw.

Patterson was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, but moved in 1778 with his parents to the town now called Pattersons Mills, in Pennsylvania. He went to school there and then worked as a farmer and miller. {The Patterson family owned the local mills, and the town was thus named to honor their industriousness.} Patterson served as major general of the Militia of Pennsylvania in the War of 1812. He was elected a Democrat to the Fifteenth through Eighteenth Congresses, but declined renomination in 1824. Patterson resumed his former businesses and died near Patterson Mills.

    1. [PATTERSON-L] THE PATTERSON FAMILY BOOK
    2. All info. is copied from this book as it is written. I do not add or delete from any of the list that have been posted or will be posted. There are seventeen biographies, so I will try to post as many per day as time allows until complete. At the end of these biographies I will give you info. on all the contents of this book. Among the members of the Patterson family who have contributed to American culture are politicians, pioneers, and businessmen. At least fourteen members have served either in the United States House of Representatives or in the Senate. Robert, A pioneer who fought in many Indian wars, helped found the town that is now Cincinnati. John Henry, after finding his metier at the late age of forty, built his company into the vast conglomerate known as National Cash Register. Carlile, a sailor and engineer, worked for the federal coastal survey and as superintendent was responsible for turning it into a well-known geodetic survey. The reports of these industrious Patterson family members listed below have been taken from a number of sources to illustrate their diverse interest. William Patterson {1745-9 September 1806}: associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Patterson was born at sea and the exact date of his birth is unknown. Little is known of his early life, until he entered Princeton and graduated in 1763; he then studied law and was admitted to the bar. Patterson, an influential delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1787, led the faction which preferred a weak central government and strong states' rights; his spirited arguments led to one of the major compromises of the Constitution as it was finally drafted. In 1789 Patterson was elected senator to the Congress, representing New Jersey. In 1790 he became governor of New Jersey, and three years later was appointed a justice of the Supreme Court. He held that post until his death, which occurred while he was visiting Albany, New York. Robert Patterson {1753 - 5 August 1887}: pioneer. Patterson was born in Pennsylvania and migrated to Kentucky in 1775, where he helped build the town of Georgetown. In 1776 he began an expedition to Pittsburgh to bring food and ammunition back to the isolated village. While sleeping one night around a campfire the party was attacked by Indians, who came on them with tomahawks and slaughtered or wounded everyone in the group. Patterson survived, although his wounds kept him in bed for nearly a year. He went on to fight Indians with Colonel George Clarke in 1778 in Illinois, and with Colonel John Bowman in 1779. Patterson also served as a colonel in Clarke's second campaign, and in an expedition led by Colonel Logan against the Shawnee. One of the founders of Lexington, Kentucky, he built the first house to be raised in that city, in 1779. Patterson was also a founder of the town of Cincinnati, and owned a great deal of land there. In 1804 he finally settled on farm near Dayton, where he died.
