I was interested to see if anyone had information on Quakers with the surname JOB. Andrew Job was born in 1620 in Fishguard, Pembrokeshire, Wales. Andrew married Elizabeth abt. 1649 in Kent, England. Andrew and Elizabeth came to America in 1650. He had three sons, Andrew Jr., John, & Thomas. Andrew Job (Jr.)- born at sea in 1650 between Kent, England and Portsmouth, New England (probably Rhode Island, as Portsmouth, NH, was not yet in existence.) He died in 1722 in East Nottingham, Chester, Pennsylvania. John Job - born in 1653 in Portsmouth, New England. Died - unknown in Calvert County, Maryland. Thomas Job (my Ancestor) - Born in 1655 in Portsmouth, New England. Died abt. 1730 in East Nottingham, Chester, Pennsylvania. Any help with these ancestors would greatly be appreciated. I believe my connection is through Thomas Job but can't make the connection through a paper trail to relatives in North Carolina. Thanks for your help, Sam Jobe SamsRoots@Bellsouth.net

Thank you for your reply. I of course looked there first of all but now have reported the problems in linking to anything there to them so maybe it will be taken care of now. My grandparents became members in the 1920s so I rather think it will be in the records. Thanks so much.

My Stempel/Stemple, family was from Quakertown and from Horsham. The earliest record I have for them is Benjamen Stemple and Elizabeth Menely being allowed to marry in 1776.Benjamen's father was Leonard Stempel and Elizabeth's father was ? Menely. According to another family member a second Benjamin named after his grand father ran away from home about 1815 after his step mother was mean to him. The step mother was a Boucher from Philadelphia. I descend from the second Benjamin who ended up in the Tobyhanna area and married into the Place family. They then moved to Tunkhannock , Pa about 1820. The Stemple family remained in the Horsham meeting for several more generations my branch changed their name to Stemples and became Methodist. Would this be reported in the Horsham meeting? If a child runs away would the Church document this? Benjamin Stemples never saw his family again until he was 30 years old. Linda

ANSWER A: Hinshaw's Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy (Volume II) include only four monthly meetings in Philadelphia Yearly Meeting: Salem NJ, Burlington NJ, Philadelphia PA, and Falls [now Fallsington] PA, including both the Orthodox and Hicksite branches for each of the four and a Primitive Branch for Falls and Philadelphia. Of course, the original index cards made by Hinshaw's workers are stored at Friends Historical Library, and some of the genealogical publishers may have published some of the Philadelphia MM vital records. ANSWER B: I have not seen the vital records of Chester MM, but the Quakers from Wales would be more concentrated around Radnor/Haverford. Some of the local history books are listed with the Radnor/Old Haverford record: https://www.quakermeetings.com/Plone/meeting_view?anID=1984 The Radnor records have been extracted by Jim Hazard. I did not see any MORANs in the Philadelphia MM pages of Hinshaw, though there is a Zillah Morgan mentioned under Philadelphia MM (Hicksite). Tom Hill Thomas C.

Hi everyone - this is an update on the historic website for Ohio Yearly Meeting. The URL is www.quaker-chronicle.info. The site is not strictly an Ohio YM website, but little has been entered for other YMs at this time.  I have mentioned this website before, but the information is being increasingly enhanced so I am mentioning it again.  The latest change is an update to the search function. I now have a page listing all surnames in the database; clicking on a surname brings up all people in the database with that surname. Women are indexed under their maiden name and any married names.  The navigation button on the top right leads to the draft pages of the Ohio YM bicentennial booklet. These draft pages posted on the site have not been updated to reflect changes made between the first draft and the final, printed version.  The website still has a few glitches that appear on Internet Explorer that need to be worked out.  So if any of you have information on ancestors in Ohio YM, certainly let me know. Seth 

Elizabeth Garland, STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I do no people genealogy, only meeting genealogy. Thus I have no information on Robert Campbell or Jemima Turney. I do know something of the records. Westland Monthly Meeting suffered both the 1828 Orthodox-Hicksite separation and the 1854 Gurneyite-Wilburite separation among the Orthodox. There was thus three different branches of Westland MM https://www.quakermeetings.com/Plone/search_display?MeetingName=Westland&Sta teOrProvince=Penn [Many e-mail servers insert a line break or return in long URLs like this one, and one must manually edit the link to remove the break before clicking through to the desired site.] and the records of Westland MM are in three different depositories. (1) The Ohio Y.M. Hicksite Executive Committee decided to deposit all local-meeting records at Friends Historical Library in Swarthmore when it topped meeting as a yearly meeting: http://www.swarthmore.edu/library/friends/RG2/ohioym.xml#series40 and the Wilburite Salem Quarterly Meeting deposited Westland MM records there: http://www.swarthmore.edu/library/friends/RG2/ohioym.xml#series42 Finally, it appears the Gurneyite records were given to the Hicksites or the Wilburite and were deposited at FHL instead of being taken to the Evangelical Friends Church-Eastern Region archives at Malone: http://www.swarthmore.edu/library/friends/RG2/ohioym.xml#series41 When I assembled _Monthly Meetings in North America: A Quaker Index_ in the early 1990s, the Mormons had not microfilmed any of the Westland MM records, so there is no LDS reel number listed for any branch. The absence of scanned copies should be remedied when Ancestry.com completes its Quaker digitalization project by about January 2013. Tom Hill Thomas C.

I am seeking information on the Reuben Allen family, I'm not absolutely sure they were Quakers. Reuben Allen migrated to Wayne County, IN from North Carolina, probably Rowan or Montgomery County between 1818 and 1820. His youngest son was R W Allen (also Reuben but used initials throughout his life) was born in 1818 in NC. The elder Rueben is listed on the Wayne County, IN census in 1820. Reuben's oldest son William Henry Allen, born 1798, married Sarah Prather, daughter of Jonathan Prather in 1826 in Wayne Co, IN. Because of the migration from NC to IN I suspect Reuben Allen may have been a Quaker, there is also unproven information that Reuben is a descendant of Ralph Geobro Allen, a Massachusetts Quaker in the 1600's. Both William Henry Allen and R W Allen migrated to Fall Creek Twp, Madison County, IN. I have a great amount of information on R W Allen (my gr, gr, gr grandfather) and his children after he migrated to Madison County, I have found no Quaker involvement. I do not believe his wife Permelia Denney was raised as a Quaker. I am new to Quaker research but have been following the Quaker-Roots list for several months. Does anyone on the list have any information on the family or suggestions on research options? Bill Hinman

I have just posted a small bit about my Quaker Elliott family who were living in Randolph County, NC during the Revolution....moved to Montgomery County, VA for safety as the war heated up in their area..... http://www.marshamoses.blogspot.com If you have interest in the area or this Elliott family, I would appreciate feedback on future posting. Also corrections, additions, ideas for future posting. If you have website or etc that would clarify any of my information and do not mind my adding a link to your information to my site, please let me know that as well. I finally gave up on the idea that I would ever manage a website....too much information....too little time. I realize that a blog is not as easy to navigate as a website, but it is "doable" in small steps which is what I need. The date to find this particular blog is August 25, 2012.

Henrietta L Robbins died in Farmington, Ontario County She married Thomas Gardner .

Tom Hill, Your mentioning Jim Hazard's work in Philadelphia MM has opened up a huge interest for me: Would Catawissa in Northumberland County, PA, later to be located in Columbia County when it was broken off from Northumberland be a part of the Philadelphia MM? Can we contact Jim? I looked at the ones that he had on the website that you provided, and they were pretty much all around Philadelphia. I would not only be interested in Catawissa, but also most of Bucks County as well as any, if there are any Meetings in Lycoming County: Hepburn & Ellsworth Townships. Sincerely, Cheryl Banks Quaker Ancesters: Twining, Doane, Large & Lundy. Possibly Wagnor/Wagner and various other spellings. I only know of one Ancestor with this last name and she was a Friend after marrying Thomas Lundy, but I do not know if she was a birth-right Friend or not as I know nothing about her.
