Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/RI/Newport/10049 Surname: PHILLIPS ------------------------- Jean, I'm sorry but I do not know who her parents were. I looked through all the information that I have and don't have anything written down. All I know is that Nathaniel Negus was married to Alice Phillips. She was born @ 1728 in Newport, RI and died in June 1751 in Newport, RI in childbirth with Phebe who was born June 1751 in Newport and died in March 26, 1825. He then married on Sept 1, 1751 Elizabeth Gallup who was born in Portsmouth , RI and died Nov 24, 1819 in Trox, MA. They had one son Isaac (whom I descend from ) and 2 or 3 other children. Good luck, I hope you find the parents of Alice. If I run across something, I will keep your address on file and let you know. Doug

Hi, Fort Butts is located on the south side of Sprague St. between Rt 138 and 114 in the Northern part of Portsmouth.

It has been my impression for many years that the land where the Breakers was built belonged to John Coggeshall in early days. Barb Austin

I am looking at a reproduction of an older Portsmouth map and it shows Butts Hill to be located on the East Main Road some distance north from Quaker Hill. If you have any old maps, looking "down" on one, it will be almost opposite Gould Island in the Sakonnet River to the east and a little further north than Lehigh Hill on the West Main Road. There are many very old houses in Portsmouth still standing and most still occupied. Barb Austin

There is a historical home in Portsmouth still existing and I think was restored by the Historical Society about 25 years ago. As far as I know it still stands, perhaps you should contact them. The description of the fort matches a location I am very familiar with in a town called Warren. There is now a park there called Burrs Hill, there are twin hills (man made) for the war. Cannons were placed behind them for protection yet they could fire on the British. The space between the two hills is wide enough to drive a small dump truck. This could very well be what you are looking for, many times revolutionaries would retreat to safer ground from New Port and Portsmouth. This could indeed be the location you are searching for. ----- Original Message ----- From: <Raelinjo@aol.com> To: <RINEWPOR-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2001 7:39 AM Subject: [RINEWPOR] Revolutionary times... > Hello fellow listers, > Can anyone tell me if there was/is a place called "Butts Hill" or "Fort > Butts" near Portsmouth on Newport's island?

SORRY.....I hit the wrong button and my incomplete message went out..... I am trying to find the exact present day location of a farm known as Brace's Farm in Newport, RI. My first American ancestor, ROBERT AYARS, purchased this farm (along with his friend, Stephen Mumford) in 1687. It was located at Ochre Point and I believe may have included the land where the "Breakers" now sits. When Ayars and Mumford bought the farm it was 240 acres, late in occupation of Richard Allison....bounded on westby Henry Bull and Jirah Bull; on south by Major John Coggelshall; on east by the Sea; on north by John Easton Sr and by the Common. I would like to find a land draft or early map showing its borders, if possible. Thank you, Walter Ayars (Summerdale, PA)

Dear Listers I would appreciate any information you may be able to share on the actual location of a Newport farm.

Original subject: Revolutionary Times In B. F. Wilbour's "Little Compton Families" (LCF), there is a single page devoted to this family. Here is an extract from page 141 of volume 1: Thomas BUTTS, died in 1703; m. Elizabeth LAKE dau. of Henry of Dorchester, MA. Residences: Norfolk, England, >>> Portsmouth & Little Compton (LC). He was in LC as early as 31 OCT 1682. Will recorded Taunton probate. book 2 page 71. children: + Zacheus, b. 1667 Idido + Moses, b. 30 JUL 1673 Hepsibah, m. 26 DEC 1695 William EARLE. Zacheus, b. 1667, d. bef. 1781; m. Sarah CORNELL, dau. of Thomas & Sarah (EARLE) CORNELL. residence in LC. Children not recorded: Sarah John, b. abt. 1691; d. in 1768; m. (1) 11 DEC 1712 Susannah WORDELL; m. (2) 29 JAN 1724 widow Abigail (Moon) BRIGGS. Mary Abigail Elizabeth Moses, b. 30 JUL 1673 probably in Portsmouth, d. in LC, 1734; m. Alice LAKE; 7 children all recorded in LC. Hope the above helps. No mention of the revolutionary war on page 141. Al Rose

Hello fellow listers, Can anyone tell me if there was/is a place called "Butts Hill" or "Fort Butts" near Portsmouth on Newport's island? I have a copy of an old map, presumably drawn up for an old text of the Revolutionary War, showing on the north end of the island, a place called Quaker Hill and north of that, Butts Hill. The map shows the line where the Patriots took up position against the Brits between these two hills. Also, a booklet entitled "The American Ancestry of John Wood Butts," by Francis Bannister Butts, November 15, 1896, accompanied this map. The following excerpts were taken from the aforementioned booklet. [John Butts-1, born about 1692 in Little Compton, then Massachusetts] "He moved to Portsmouth, Rhode Island where he engaged in farming, and purchased the wind mill and a considerable extent of land surrounding what has been since known as 'Butts Hill.' There he erected a house where several generations of the family have been born. The house was a typical one of the period, having a great chimney and narrow windows. It was taken down in 1878 having stood about 150 years." [John Butts-2, born 1733 in Portsmouth, Rhode Island] "The war of the Revolution was a great disaster to him, the British soldiers having pillaged the farms and dwellings of all who were loyal to their country. He was greatly respected by the people among whom he lived and the soldiers of the Patriot army. To his honor and patriotism the fort they struggled to defend August 9, 1778 was named, and from that time has been known as Fort Butts." Does anyone familiar with Newport's island know if any of this is true? Did/do these two places really exist under these names? Any input would be appreciated. Linda Jones, Raelinjo@aol.com

Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/RI/Newport/10045 Surname: Rich ------------------------- I do not have your specific Richard, although I have several Richard Rich's and there is a good chance there are related. Donald Lines Jacobus did a great deal of research on the Rich family. It is found in TAG (The American Genealogist) about 1945/6. Very good stuff. The articles are titled, "The House of Rich" (TAG 21:234-238; 22:27-37, 157-165, 240-248, and 23: 101-110) There is a small follow up article in TAG April 1984 page 91, but this does not address your problem. Happy hunting, I hope this helps.

Sorry, I have checked and I don't seem to have your Lydia King listed. Sorry! :( Susan

Kilbourn, Stanton, Viall, Vail, Gray I need info on KILBURN, John & STANTON, Catherine Isabella possibly married 10 July 1763. This is almost all pure guesswork based on long distance research. Thankyou. William P. Farrington Catherine Isabella STANTON was born circa 1744, died 13 March 1801 in Newport, Newport Co., RI, and buried in the Common Burial Ground.Alden Gamaliel Beaman, PhD, Rhode Island Vital Records, New Series, Births 1590-1930 From Newport Common Burial Ground Inscriptions (East Princeton, Mass.: Rhode Island Families Assoc., 1985), vol.11, p. 237. Hereinafter cited as Beaman, RIVR Births 1590-1930 (date) vol.__, p.__. It gives age as 57 years at death 13 March 1801. Arnold, VRORI 1636-1850 (1906), vol.15, p.524 cited obituary in newspaper United States Chronicle of 19 March 1801.

Catherine had a possible will in 1799.Newport Will Book #3B, p.353-354 & Book 4B, p.420 (year 1803). I have not seen the original, just a citation to it in Arnold, VRORI 1636-1850. John was born circa 1732.Beaman, RIVR Births 1590-1930 (1985), vol.11, 237. It gives age as 51 years at death 25 September 1783. John died 25 September 1783 in Newport, Newport Co., RI and buried in the Common Burial Ground.Arnold, VRORI 1636-1850 (1901), vol.12, p. 55 said obit published in the newspaper The Newport Mercury of 27 September 1783. It calls him "Capt." Why? Beaman, RIVR Births 1590-1930 (1985), vol.11, p.237. It gives age as 51 years at death 25 September 1783. Children surnamed KLBOURN: i.Margery Maude KILBORN was born circa 1763-1780.Pure guesswork from her parents marriage and her marriage. She first married George Job VAIL (VIALL) 15 (Feb) September 1800 in the Second Congregational Church in Newport, Newport Co., RI.Arnold, VRORI 1636-1850 (1896), vol.8, p.468 and 478. The marriage under George VIALL and Margery WILBOUR gave the marriage as 15 February 1800 on page 478.The marriage under Margery KILBUN and George VIALL gave the marriage as 15 September 1800 on page 468. So, which is the correct one? Margery possibly married circa 1810-1820 a (_____) GRAY (GREY). They were possibly in Chenango Co., NY in 1820. Children surnamed VAIL (VIALL): i.George Alfred VAIL was born circa 1796 in Newport, RI and died 13 December 1841 in New Orleans, Orleans Parish, LA.The Newspaper New Orleans Commercial Bulletin 14 December 1841, p.2, c.6. He supposedly had an obituary in the New York Herald 28 December 1841. After a "protracted illness," he died 13 December 1841 and was a native of Newport, RI. He was buried 14 December 1841 from the corner of Perdido and Circus Streets. The obit had "Newport papers please copy." His obituary in the Commercial Bulletin refered to his brother-in-law, Andrew HERO. George was a tavern keeper who lived at, or had a business at, #11 Hospital Street, New Orleans, LA.Mayor's Office, New Orleans, Orleans Par., LA, Tavern Keeper's bond #495, 1 January 1830, for $1000.00. From Municipal Papers, Kuntz Collection, at Manuscript Collection, Tulane University Library. Surety was Tomothy Donnellan of #149 Old Levee Street. George VAIL and a Catharin VAIL witnessed the marriage of William YALE [GATE ??] and Sophia Marsh [Mears ?] MYERS [?] on 5 March 1836 at the First Congregational Church of New Orleans, Orleans Par., LA.Marriage record of GATES (YALE ?) to Spphia MYERS [?], Marriage Records, 5 March 1836, First Congregational Church of New Orleans, Orleans Par., LA., Microfilm #LN60 at the New Orleans, LA Main Public Library, Louisiana Division. The signatures of the bride and groom are difficult to make out. I do not know who this Catharin VAIL was. Could she be George's wife, and if so, did they have children? On 27 April 1836, George leased from Louis F. FOUCHER a house in the Suberb Marigny, on Levee Street between Spain & Mandeville, second house from corner of Spain St.T. Seghers, N. P., vol.15, act#347, Notarial Archives, New Orleans, Orleans Par., LA. Children surnamed GRAY (GREY). ii.Caroline Matilda VAIL GREY was born circa 3 January 1822 in New York, NY or in Newport, RI.

Hero, 58 years, New York, 320 Annunciation Street." The problem comes in where half of the evidence said she was surnamed Vail and half said surnamed GRAY. i.Elizabeth Kilburn was born circa July 1765, died 10 October 1774 in Newport, Newport Co., RI, and buried in the Common Burial Ground.Beaman, RIVR Births 1590-1930 (1985), vol.11, p.237. iii.John KILBURN was born circa 15 November 1773, died 8 November 1774 in Newport, Newport Co., RI, and buried in the Common Burial Ground.Beaman, RIVR Births 1590-1930 (1985), vol.11, p.237. iv.John KILBURN was born circa April 1774, died 28 September 1781 in Newport, Newport Co., RI, and buried in the Common Burial Ground.Beaman, RIVR Births 1590-1930 (1985), vol.11, p.237. v.Katherine KILBURN was born circa 1779, died 1 September 1799 in Newport, Newport Co., RI, and buried in the Common Burial Ground.Beaman, RIVR Births 1590-1930 (1985), vol.11, p.237. vi.Mary KILBURN of Newport, Newport Co., RI was born circa 1731 and died 4 October 1811 in Providence, Providence Co., RI.Arnold, VRORI 1636-1850 (1905), vol.14, p. 437.
