Morgan County Penn Township is very familiar to me: both my parents, Howard Wilson and Ada Mae Williams were born there as were Grandmother Alice Kinsey, whose line descends through John Frank(lin) Kinsey from the Livezey 1682 immigrant, Thomas Livezey, into Philadelphia. My maternal line descends through John Charles Williams and Hattie Riley, who lived in Belmont before relocating to Penn Township. I remember visiting the area often and all my grandparents and great-grandparents and also my parents are buried in Penn Township. My mother often said she wondered how anyone found this out of the way location. jj in Osprey ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel W Treadway" <treadway@netins.net> To: <paberks@rootsweb.com>; <quaker-roots@rootsweb.com> Cc: <ohmorgan@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2012 7:47 PM Subject: [Q-R] Benjamin Worrall and Hannah (Worrall) Clendenon > In the fall of 1832, eighty-eight year old Benjamin Worrall made his > way to a courtroom in McConnellsville, Morgan County, Ohio.

Dan,   Thank you for posting the sad news about Herbert Standing to the list. I know this isn't strictly Quaker Genealogy, but to my mind Herbert Standing epitomized Quaker Genealogy. He was a very knowledgeable gentleman, and was very willing to share his great wealth of information of Quaker Genealogy with others, as exemplified by his postings to this list. I had the great privligdge to meet him at a few of the Genealogy Conferences at the Quaker Hill Conference Center and Earlham's Lilly Library, about ten years ago or so, the Conferences were so ably conducted by Tom Hamm. I would like to know of any arrangements. Please let me know of them off list.   Sincerely,   Tom   Thomas E.

Having thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Standing's marvelous comments and observations over the years, I am so sorry to hear of his passing. He will be very greatly missed.

In the fall of 1832, eighty-eight year old Benjamin Worrall made his way to a courtroom in McConnellsville, Morgan County, Ohio. He was there to tell of his years in the Continental Army. When he had enlisted, he had been living in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, which summer he could no longer remember. His company commander was Captain Jacob Weaver in the 10th regiment of the Pennsylvania Line. They had spent the next cold winter with Washington at Valley Forge, and afterwards had marched as far away as Stony Point, on the Hudson River between New York and West Point. His testimony was to establish that he was eligible for a pension based on his service over half a century before. Subtracting, we see that Benjamin was born in 1744. He was the ninth and youngest child of John and Hannah (Taylor) Worrall who lived in Marple Township, Chester (now Delaware) County, Pennsylvania. He was by birth a member of Chester (now Media) Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). His father died in 1762 without a will, so perhaps the death was sudden. Minutes of Chester Monthly Meeting for 1st Month 1767 record that Benjamin was reported for "marrying by a priest to one not a member, drinking to excess and neglecting meetings." A committee was appointed to meet with him and try to get him to return to Quaker ways, but their report was not positive, and he was removed from membership. The next fact we have of his life is his enlistment in the summer of 1777. We know his whereabouts from then until his discharge in the spring of 1781. In 1792, he wrote a letter to Chester Monthly Meeting acknowledging his transgressions and "hoping Friends would pass it by" and reinstate his membership. This was granted. By the beginning of the next year, he had requested transfer of his membership to Robeson Meeting, Berks County, Pennsylvania. He had quite possibly been living not far away for many years, near his oldest brother Jonathan. Because Benjamin was not a member during the years his children were born, their births are not recorded in Quaker records. Among the sons were Jonathan, listed in the 1850 census as age 78, George, born between 1772 and 1779, Thomas, born 1786, possibly Isaac; there was at least one daughter, but her identity is uncertain. In 1794, Jonathan requested membership at Robeson Meeting but was turned down. Perhaps the committee suspected his reason for joining was so he could marry of of their members, Eleanor Gerrad. Such suspicions might have been right, for the two were married outside of meeting on 30 Sep 1794, and afterwards Eleanor had to make apologies and convince the meeting they were sincere in order to retain her membership. Not many years after that, members of the family began leaving Berks County for points further west. Benjamin's membership was transferred from Robeson to Redstone Meeting in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, in 1797, and in 1804 to Short Creek Meeting in Jefferson County, Ohio. Daughter-in-law Eleanor got a certificate of transfer from Robeson Meeting in 1798, which she carried first to Redstone, then in 1801 to Westland Meeting in Washington County, Pennsylvania, and fianlly in the spring of 1803 to Concord Meeting in Belmont County, Ohio. At Concord that same spring, Jonathan applied again for membership and was this time accepted, along with children Sarah, Benjamin, and Nathaniel. When Short Creek Meeting was formed in 1804, Jonathan and Eleanor were among its original members. Benjamin and Jonathan took up land about two miles apart in Jefferson County. Jonathan and his family moved to Salem in Columbiana County, Ohio, in 1807, but returned to their homestead in 1811. That same year, Benjamin sold some land to Jonathan, and the courthouse record of that transaction reveals that Benjamin's wife at that time was named Elizabeth. In 1813 when Harrison County was formed, Jonathan's land was included but Benjamin's remained in Jefferson County. In 1812, Benjamin's son Thomas Worrall and his wife and three children were accepted into membership at Short Creek Meeting; Thomas died in 1824 at age 38, and was buried at West Grove, about a mile from land he purchased from Jonathan in 1815. In the 1820s, the family was on the move again, this time to Morgan County, Ohio. In 1826, a Benjamin Worrall purchased federal land in Morgan County; it is not clear whether this is Jonathan's father, or his son. In 1828 both Benjamin, Sr., and Jonathan and his family transferred membership to Deerfield Meeting in Morgan County, and Thomas' widow Esther and her children followed the next year. In the 1830 census, we find Benjamin in Penn Township, Morgan County, listed between Isaac Clendenon and Thomas Worrell. In 1832 Benjamin applied for his pension, and must have been alive in June of 1833, when he was once again read out of Quaker meeting--the peace-loving Quakers could not allow one of their members to profit from making war. This is the last record we have of his life. ********** Information passed down in my family says that Isaac and Hannah (Worrall) Clendenon are my 4-greats grandparents, that Isaac was born 6-11-1768, that Hannah was born 9-3-1767, and that they were married 12-21-1792. Records of Rebeson Meeting show that Hannah Worrall was witness to the marriage of Joseph Jackson and Mary Bonsall on 4-28-1971, and that on 3-5-1793, Isaac and Hannah Clendenon signed together as witnesses to the marriage of Ellis Hughes and Elizabeth Bonsall. Another witness to the Hughes marriage was Benjamin Worrall. Isaac lost his Quaker membership soon after he married Hannah--she was not a member. By 1808, they were living in Belmont County, Ohio, and Isaac wrote back to Robeson Meeting apologizing and asking that he be reinstated. That same year Hannah taken into membership at Stillwater Meeting in Belmont County, Isaac's membership was transferred there from Robeson, and their six children added to the rolls as well. In 1827, Isaac and Hannah transferred membership to Deerfield Meeting in Morgan County, where Isaac died in 1834, and Hannah in 1857. ********** I am all but certain that Benjamin Worrall who married out of meeting in 1767, and Hannah (Worrall) Clendenon, who was born in 1768, were father and daughter. From that time until Benjamin's death in the 1830s they never lived more than a score of miles apart for long, making two major moves in parallel. I will be grateful to anyone who can add facts to this account, and especially to anyone who can provide information that links them for certain. I hope to travel this summer to Pennsylvania and Ohio to gather more information myself, and would be glad for any tips on where I should search.

The only Alexander Moore I have is the son of Mordecai Moore who died in Warren County, GA, 1790s. This Alexander moved to Ohio and points beyond with the Quakers who left Georgia in the early 1800s. The ancestor is James Moore who was in Philadelphia by 1684. He was born ca. 1650, died 1694 in Radnor Township out from Philadelphia. He did not have a son Alexander, but wonder if your Alexander was a nephew or cousin. We are Group 22 in the Moore Worldwide FTDNA Project.

The event was indeed a worthwhile experience. For a list of many of the individuals interred at the cemetery and a number of photos of individual headstones, see http://cemeterycensus.com/nc/orng/cem064.htm. The Old Eno Quaker cemetery served the earliest settlers of Hillsborough--one of the earliest and most historic settlements in Piedmont North Carolina. Common names there were Burney, Burnsides, Chambers, Chancey, Cloud, Courtney, Embree, Few, Frasier, Husband, Jackson, Maddock, Miller, Mooney, Neal, Palmer, Pearson, Pugh, Stubbs, Taylor, Thompson, Wiley and Wilkinson. Many of these families came from Hockessin [now Delaware] Meeting, New Garden Meeting [Pennsylvania] and other nearby meetings in southern Chester County, PA.

NC 1783).  Still looking for my documentation on this.  I believe I found it Hinshaw, but haven't been able to put my fingers on it.    As you probably know, the Adcock's were not quakers and Rachel was "dis mou" (Hinshaw Vol 1, p. 370).  I show James' parents as Henry Adcock and Delilah Moorman.  Delilah was also "dis mou"  same reference.  Since James' mother's maiden name was the same as his wife's maiden name, I suspect (but have no proof) that Rachel was his cousin.   Ken Holloway >________________________________ >From: "quaker-roots-request@rootsweb.com" <quaker-roots-request@rootsweb.com> >To: quaker-roots@rootsweb.com >Sent: Friday, April 20, 2012 2:00 AM >Subject: QUAKER-ROOTS Digest, Vol 7, Issue 74 > > > >Today's Topics: > >  1.

It's me again. I am trying to find the parents of a Rachel Moorman b: 7 Sep 1762 in North Carolina who married a James Adcock who I know even less about. They had at least one child Travis Adcock who was born 3 Jun 1788 in Guilford County, NC. Thanks ever so much, Dale in California

I sent this to Dale yesterday and want to add some new information. <I have the date of marriage of Esther to John Mendenhall as 8 9m 1708 Concord MM Chester County, PA and she died 1709 and list no children. No documentation listed> Searching online I found the birth record of Esther recorded in the "Register of Births belonging to the Quarterly Meeting of Cheshire and Staffordshire from 1648 - 1783" Ester Daughtr of Nathan and Alice Maddock of Chester born 16 12m 1661 (As Quakers used the number for the month this would be February. Remember before 1753 the year began with March.) (This also would make the date of her marriage to John Mendenhall to be 8 9m 1708 or 8 Nov 1708, but if you write as November you need to explain how the original had it.) Have copy of the original record of her birth that I found online. Searched for the marriage of her to Peter but did not find that record online.

Dale, I am wondering if your records have any connection between the Columbia County, PA Mendenhalls and the John and Elizabeth Titman Lemon? I know one of their children became a Mendenhall. In fact, at the Columbia County Historical Society, my cousin went into the building and said that she was interested in the Lemon family. The greeter replied, "Oh, yes. Mendenhalls." They really were not our particular family as we were descended from John and Elizabeth's son Joseph whose son John Kline married a Lundy from Lycoming County. That is the Quaker Connection and what I am interested in are the Catawissa Quaker records which never seem to be discussed? Do you happen to know if the Mendenhalls were members of that Monthly Meeting? I am sure that the Lycoming County Lundys were.

It is my understanding that an Esther Maddock/Maddox married first a Peter Dicks/Dix. After he died she married a John Mendenhall I believe. My question is: Did John and Esther have any children and if they did, what were their names and birthdates. I think this was in the early 1700's in Pennsylvania I believe.

Judith, I note that Eno was first under Cane Creek MM and later under Spring MM. When folks attend the dedication, please recall that I would like to hear the GPS coordinates of the Meetinghouse and Burial Ground, though it appears the site is close to the Mars Hill Baptist Church.

Peter Dicks died in 1704 and Esther remarried John Mendenhall September 8, 1708 in Concord Twp., Delaware Co., Pa. By that time she would have been too old to have any more children.
