(Boston,Suffolk) intention to mary one Mary BUTLER on Dec. 8, 1762. They did not marry in Mass. and from family memories reported at the end of 19th Century seem to have gone south where they did marry (where?). They were known to have had one of their children in Connecticut but trace can not be found in that state of their ever being there. Some reports direct my attention to Augusta Co., VA. They later on settled in Tryon Co. (NY) at the latest in 1778 when they are recorded as tenants of Sir William Johnson in Kingsland (Philadelphia Bush near Johnstown to be more precise and to be completely accurate as neighbours to one Michael Carman); after being part of the Loyalist resistance and having been in jail at least twice (once in Johnstown and once in Albany), they fled in February 1782 to Montreal, Canada and from there in 1784 to the Gaspé Coast of Quebec where their descendants still live to this day. Any information welcome. Will share more info on descendants in return.
