Chris: First; Bill Sackett is a descendant of Isaac Sackett who contacted me saying that he had copies of the inquest documents which give the answer to Weygant's mystery concerning the death of Isaac. He sent me images of the documents and the part I posted is my transcription. There were several images which were only portions of larger pages. I have pieced the pages together to make only 5 images. The images have been uploaded to the TSFA website. Maybe someone else can make a better transcription than I have of the parts I posted. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~tsfa/documents/0756-isaac/ In the sworn testimonies there were statements concerning a piece of paper found in Isaac's pocket book which was identified as (A). One witness identified it as being Isaac's handwriting. The image <isaac_inquest-5.jpg> has only the words: "A. Sacket, I think it is sufficient to produce death." I took this to possibly be the contents of the piece of pager discussed in the testimony. I will admit that I may have been wrong is saying that it was a shot gun. There is mention of caps, and a powder horn which would indicate a muzzle loaded gun and I am not well enough versed on guns of that period to know whether or not there were muzzle loaded shot guns. My assumption that it was a shot gun came from the mention of "one barrel was discharged" and I thought of a double barreled shot gun. There was also a statement about the discovery of a "stick" which was probably used to activate the trigger as would be necessary for one using a long barreled gun for such a purpose. I will also admit that I have been so excited at getting the inquest information and information for Bill's line and some pictures of individuals and headstones that I haven't asked him if he is a member of the SACKETT-L. His email address is <Sackettbill@aol.com> and his name is William Mark Sackett. His line goes Isaac A. and Eunice Davis Sackett Edwin M. and Lydia Osterhout Sackett Samuel Edwin and Eliza Wiseman Sackett Herman Eugene and Calinda Esther Greene Sackett Samuel Nelson and Doris Jean Cranmer Sackett William Mark and Sally Dyer Sackett Regards, Thurmon TSFA Historian On Tue, 17 Feb 2004 11:21:57 -0000 "Chris Sackett" <chris@sackett.org.uk> writes: > Thurmon, > > Thanks for posting the Isaac Sackett inquest report.

Thurmon, This is very possible. I have noticed that at the time of the Rev War that many people served for others. Espeically salves and indentured servents. Since the names are so close though I have a feeling he was serving with an alias. I will look and see what I can find this week while I am in DC. I will only be ordering records this week and viewing them in two.

Thurmon, Thanks for posting the Isaac Sackett inquest report. Very interesting, if gruesome. Did Bill Sackett indicate the source of this document? Come to that, who is Bill Sackett? Is he a member? Is the comment at the end > It appears that there was a short note found in his pocket book which > said: > "I think it is sufficient to produce death." part of the inquest report? Kind regards, Chris

Hello Sackett Searchers; In the account of 756-Isaac Anson Sackett presented by Weygant, p. 115, 172; we read: "He was by occupation in early life a blacksmith, but in his later years followed farming. There is a mystery surrounding his death. He left his home, not saying where he was going, and did not return. After a considerable lapse of time a search was determined upon and his dead body was found in a nearby piece of woods. An examination of his remains revealed that his death had resulted from a gunshot wound." ----------- This week Bill Sackett sent me copies of the Inquest held on the body of Isaac A. Sacket (Filed Sept. 28, 1852) While the cover page says that it was filed on Sept. 28, 1852 the inquest was held Feb 11, 1852 and the sworn statements indicate that Isaac A. Sacket had died within the past week. Perhaps the date the papers were filed led Weygant to believe that a long period of time had elapsed between his death and the discovery of his body. Sworn statements given at the inquest indicate that on Wednesday, Feb 4, 1852 Isaac borrowed a neighbors shot gun and went into the swamp area with the stated purpose of hunting rabbits.. State of New York Delaware County On the Examination of witnesses produced sworn & examined on the 11th day of February 1852 at the town of Stamford in said county before me Harry R. Hamilton one of the coroners in and for said county and Jeffry H Champlin, Robert English, Mr John Baggs, Urial Hamilton, David B. Case, William Marshall, Charles Csuffin, David Squires, Nicholas Champlin Miles Stewdley & Norman K. Wilcox & John R. Clark. good and lawful men of the said county duly sworn upon their oaths to enquire into all the circumstances attending the death of Isaac A. Sacket & by whome the same was produced and in which manner & when & where the said Isaac A. Sacket came to his death do say upon their oaths aforesaid, that the said Isaac A. Sackett did voluntarily and of his own malice aforethought inflict a mortal wound in and upon the head of him the said Isaac A. Sacket. Of which said mortal wound the said Isaac A. Sackett, then & there instantly died & so the jurors aforesaid upon their oaths aforesaid say that the said Isaac A. Sackett did then and there in the manner aforesaid and at the place aforesaid voluntairly & of his own malice and aforethought kill and Murder himself the said Isaac A. Sacket against the peace of the people p. 2 of this State & their dignity. In witness whereof as well the Said Coroner as the jurors aforesaid have to this inquisition set their hands & Seals on the day of the date of this inquistion aforesaid Henry R. Hamilton Cornoner [Signed by the jurors] It appears that there was a short note found in his pocket book which said: "I think it is sufficient to produce death."

Hello Sackett Searchers: I recently ran across something that caused me to think of the question of Skene D. Sackett's service in the Rev. War. Weygant says that he entered the service under the name Skene Douglas in order to avoid detection by his uncle. My question is: Would it be possible that his time of service was FOR [or in place of] someone named Skene Douglas? I read of one situation where one man served in place of another and later the one who was replaced filed for his pension and got it even though he never actually served. And the one who actually served was not eligible for a military pension. Thurmon TSFA Historian

Nancy, A few years back I sent several articles on early Dover and that area,regarding Richard Sackett, to the list. I'm not sure of the context now. I think it was a series that was running on area history in the Sunday "Poughkeepsie Journal" They were newspapers I received from my cousin Bob Sackett who presently lives in the area.

Nancy: The latest internet worm uses this approach and carries its little package as an attachment. I have received two of them.

This week I received copies of a few pages from the "History of Wayne County, New York" published by Everts, Ensign and Everts, 1877. The account of the settlement of Walworth begins on page 185. Near the bottom of the page is the mention of the arrival in 1808 of "David Tiffany and Rowland Sackett, from Massachusetts ..." But something else on the page caught my eye ... The concerns of an early environmentalist: "Primitive Settlements." "The first settlement was commenced in 1799, when four families, by the name Millett, - Andrew, John, Samuel, and Daniel, settled in the southeast part of the town, as did a younger brother named Alexander. Daniel went to Ohio and took up his residence. He was in the woods one evening, and being mistaken in the gloom for a bear, was fired upon by a hunter and shot. Andrew became insane and hung himself. His mind was deranged from the belief that the world would soon be without wood, as it was being so rapidly cut away. Had he realized the mighty carbon-heaps stored just beneath the soil in such immense tracts, it would have gone far to effect a cure..." So it appears that in the early 1800s there was at least one who was concerned that men were depleating the world's resources. Thurmon TSFA Historian

Hi, I wondered if anyone would be interested in the 300th anniversary celebration of Amenia, NY, as it relates to Richard Sackett. The town is going to be having a year long celebration. The first I heard of it had a half page article in the local paper with most of it talking about Richard Sackett and the new stone that is in place. It also has a little map showing where the cemetery is. This past week the paper gave some of the details of the festivities, one was the dedication of the Steelworks cemetery which is planned for Oct. 9-10, tentative. This week also spent time on the Winegar family of Amenia. I would be more than happy to send copies to anyone who wished, or whatever. This is only the 2nd week of stuff in the paper so I don't know how much we are going to see that would apply to the Sacketts. Deb

The information I have for this couple comes from the website of Daniel Sackett <transitdan@yahoo.com> at: http://missoula.bigsky.net/transitd/default.htm This Aaron Sackett is a descendant of 664-Aaron and Dorcas Clark Sackett Subject: Sackett/McKnight Ancestors Date: Sat, 7 Feb 2004 2:52:24 AM EST From: Tika <natikalamb@yahoo.com> To: thurmonking@netscape.net Hi, I was researching my grandfather John Blixt family....and an interesting website came up with information about Aaron Sackett and Viola McKnight. My great grandparents headstone is right next to the Sackett's headstone. My grandfather John Blixt Jr.'s mother was Mildred Ann McKnight and Mildred's sister is Viola. I am very new (2 years of fumbling around) at geneology.... I have come to a block on the McKnight's. It looks like some very awesome research has been done on the Sackett's. It was so exciting to have come across the research on Aaron Sackett matching the Molalla desciption tonight. I have a picture of Aaron and Viola's headstone if you would like a copy. Thank you.

Hello Sackett Searchers: Recently I discovered that the "Sacketts of America" didn't seem to be listed in the RootsWeb websites Index although I had found it there before. The reason for this is the fact that I have it located in the Freepages "books" catagory. All of the queries I have received from visitors to this site have been through the search engines like Google, Alltheweb, and other crawlers that have indexed the site. This week I started the "TSFA Historian's Home Page" which is located in the "genealogy" catagory. I have already received some queries from people who found the site through a RootsWeb/Ancestry search. In order to get a broad base of help in answering queries; I'm going to TRY to remember to post the queries on the SACKETT-L I have also posted a different email address on the TSFA site so that I will know which site generated the query. My main email addresses remain the same; <thurmonking@juno.com> and <thurmonking@netscape.net> Thurmon TSFA Historian
