Hi John, Many thanks for all your excellent scholarship on the WASHBURN lines. Do you suppose that Manassah WASHBURN could have been from this family? Anne Raymond and I have been looking but not found his parents anywhere. We think his father was named Ephraim but only because his first son was so named. Could he have been adopted or an illegitimate son -- what would be the proof in such a situation? Any thoughts? Again many thanks for all your fine work. Alice Gordon

None of the names ring a bell Dianne. This is the first Franklin that has turned up the right age in 1850 to be mine :). I am so thankful you found him. I will see what I can prove/disprove about him. Maybe he is finally mine. I don't guess you know anything about the Washburn's in that county? John Andrew is the only name I have, other then his children's names. I honestly don't think he knew anything about his father or very little. John Andrew named the first 3 sons Bruster, Garfield, Ollie, the first girls Lena and Emma. So far I haven't seen any help in the childrens names either. Thank you very much you have no idea how much I appreciate this. It is off to the library soon to see what Greene County, Illinois resources they have in West Texas. Vickye vickye@usaonline.net

Does anyone have any information on a William Rogers Washburn? He was born April 4, 1814, Springfield, VT (source of this information is family bible). William married Sophronia Stoddard July 26, 1836, in Ashtabula Co., OH, and they both died of cholera in 1854 in Morgan, Co., MO, leaving 6 minor children. Per the bible Sophronia Stoddard was born February 16, 1815 in Charlestown, NH, but I have located a birth record for a Sophronia Stoddard February 18, 1815, Ludlow Twp., Windsor, VT. I have not been able to determine the parents of William, and any help in this regard would be much appreciated. Mike Wolf

HTH, Dianne

I have been hunting information on Franklin W. WASHBURN for 3 years without success. I know nothing about him, not his parents, state of birth, death, or burial location. Franklin W. (Frank) WASHBURN is in Hot Springs, Arkansas 1860 census. He is listed as 21 years old born in Illlinois and a farmer. He is married to Polly 21 b. Alabama, with young son John Andrew WASHBURN. Family storys say, "he disappeared in the Civil War". I have not found any sign of him in the war. Each lead turns out to be someone else, and there aren't a lot of leads there either. I do know he married Mary (Polly) GRAY in February 1859 Hot Springs, Arkansas. He is listed as being 23 years old, Mary is 19 b. Alabama. They marry in the home of Nicholas FISHER and Sarah KIRKLAND FISHER b.1820 Alabama. Mary (Polly) appears to be Sarah's child by a previous marriage. John Andrew WASHBURN is born in December 1859. Mary (Polly) WASHBURN marrys William Gillam GRAVES ca 1862 in Alabama. They have their first child in August 1864 that I know about. Both Mary and William GRAVES are buried in Garland County, Arkansas. Buried beside them is a Clemmie WASHBURN. I have no idea if this is a sibling of Andrew's or a wife. John Andrew is in Garland County till late 1880's when he moves to Texas. There is no record of Guardianship papers, pension, will, nothing on Franklin W. WASHBURN that I can find. 1860 census and he disappears leaving mysterys behind. I could certain use some help with this. Thank you, vickye@usaonline.net

This is an abstract of the will of Solomon Washburn of Middleborough, MA, dated 26 Aug. 1825, from Plymouth County Probate Records, Vol. 59, from LDS Microfilm #0550910: In the name of God Amen. I Solomon Washburn of Middleborough…cordwainer, being weak of body and considering the uncertainty of this mortal life, and being of sound mind and memory… First I give and bequeath to my beloved wife Anna Washburn the use and income of all my property to hold to her during her natural life; and after her decease I give and bequeath to my youngest son Lewis Washburn of Middleborough the one half of all my real estate, farming tools and neat stock. Also I give and bequeath to my two granddaughters Anne Hayward and Harriet Hayward (children of my daughter Anne Hayward late of South Bridgewater, deceased) my smallest feather bed with the bedstead and one pair of sheets and one coverlet. And because I have heretofore given something to my son Reuben Washburn of Troy in the State of Vermont, and also assisted and help'd my son Zenas Washburn (late of East Bridgewater, deceased) to some property in time past, therefore I shall make no farther provision for them or their heirs in this my last will and Testament. And as to the other half of my real estate, farming tools and neat stock, after my Executor shall have paid my just debts and funeral charges, then the remainder shall be equally divided between my three following sons, viz. my son Solomon Washburn of South Bridgewater, my son Nahum Washburn of Halifax, and my son Thomas Washburn of Middleborough… Also I give and bequeath the remainder of my household furniture…to be equally divided between my four following sons, viz. Solomon Washburn, Nahum Washburn, Thomas Washburn and Lewis Washburn… And I appoint my son Thomas Washburn aforesaid Sole executor of this my last will and testament. Solomon Washburn Witnesses: Livy Morton Hazael Tinkham Jr. Hazael Tinkham Probated on 1 Nov. 1825, proved in court by Livy Morton and Hazael Tinkham, and son Thomas Washburn was confirmed as executor. Solomon Washburn was born in Bridgewater, MA, on 24 Oct. 1754, the eldest son of Josiah Washburn (Jr.) and Phebe Hayward, who were married in Bridgewater on 3 May 1753. Josiah (Jr.) was the son of Josiah[4] Washburn (Jonathan[3], John[2], John[1] Washburn), and Sarah[4] Richmond (Edward[3], John[2], John[1] Richmond). Phebe Hayward was the daughter of Deacon Thomas Hayward and Bethiah Brett, of East Bridgewater. Solomon Washburn married Anne Mitchell, daughter of Seth and Ann (Latham) Mitchell on 17 Mar. 1773 in Bridgewater. She was born in Bridgewater on 19 Jan. 1755. Solomon Washburn died in Middleborough, MA, on 29 Aug. 1825, "aged 70 years, 10 months, 5 days," and Anne Washburn died a widow in Middleborough on 12 Dec. 1832, "aged 77 years, 10 months, 7 days." The birth of one of the children of Solomon and Anne was recorded in the vital records of Bridgewater, and the baptisms of most of the others were recorded in the vital records of East Bridgewater, but not all of them. This is another case where the will of Solomon proves his children: 1. Zenas Washburn, born ca. 1774, (calculated from his age at death), baptized in East Bridgewater on 26 Sept. 1784, married Lydia Whitman on 3 Feb. 1799 in Bridgewater. Zenas died intestate on 18 Feb. 1824 in East Bridgewater, aged 49 years, of "lung fever," and Alfred Whitman was granted administration of his estate. Lydia died in 1860 in East Bridgewater. 2. Anna Washburn, born ca. 1778, (calculated from her age at death), baptized in East Bridgewater on 26 Sept. 1784, married Rev. Oliver Hayward on 31 Aug. 1797 in East Bridgewater. She died on 22 Feb. 1817 in Bridgewater, aged 38 years, and he died on 26 Sept. 1831 in Titicut, MA, aged 50 years, of "affection of the heart." 3. Solomon Washburn (Jr.), born in Bridgewater on 18 June 1780, baptized in East Bridgewater on 26 Sept. 1784, married Sarah "Sally" Carver on 18 Mar. 1801 in Bridgewater. She died on 17 Dec. 1843 in Bridgewater, MA, aged 63 years, of influenza, and he died intestate in 1850 in Bridgewater. His son, Rotheus Washburn, was granted administration of his estate on 2 Apr. 1850. 4. Reuben Washburn, born ca. 1783, (calculated from his age in the 1850 census), baptized in East Bridgewater on 26 Sept. 1784, was living in Troy, VT, when his father wrote his will in 1825, but was back living with his son, Lewis Washburn, in North Bridgewater, MA, by the 1850 census. I don't know the name of his wife. 5. Thomas Washburn, baptized on 7 Oct. 1787 in East Bridgewater, married Charity Leonard in 1814, and settled in Middleborough. (Her sister married his brother, Lewis Washburn.) Thomas was a mason in the 1850 census in Middleborough, and he died testate on 3 Apr. 1870 in Middleborough, naming his sons Solomon L. Washburn and Jonathan T. Washburn as coexecutors of his will. 6. Nahum Washburn, born ca. 1792, (calculated from his age in the 1850 census), married Anna Mitchell on 25 Dec. 1816 in Bridgewater. She was born in Bridgewater on 3 Apr. 1790, the daughter of John and Anna (Byram) Mitchell, and was a distant cousin of his mother. (Nahum would have been a third cousin of her father, John Miitchell.) They were living in Halifax, MA, in 1825, and in the 1850 census. 7. Osier Washburn, baptized in East Bridgewater on 10 May 1795, probably the unnamed child of Solomon Washburn who was buried in Mar. 1802 in East Bridgewater. 8. Lewis Washburn, baptized in East Bridgewater on 5 Feb. 1797, married Eunice Leonard, sister of his brother Thomas' wife, in 1822, and also lived in Middleborough. He died testate on 21 Sept. 1860 in Middleborough, and named his wife Eunice as executrix of his estate. She died on 23 Feb. 1891 in Middleborough, aged 94. I hope this helps somebody. John A.

Hi. I don't know who sent this message--you should sign you name at the end so everyone knows who you are. Anyway, there seems to be too large a gap between Japheth C. Washburn and the William Washburn who married Clara Frost. I don't have William and Clara in my database, but I do have information on the line leading up to Japheth C. Washburn. Japheth Coombs Washburn was born in Wayne, Kennebec Co., ME, on 28 Jan. 1780 to Japheth Washburn and Priscilla Coombs, who were married probably in Rochester, Plymouth Co., MA, in 1768. Japheth and Priscilla lived in Middleborough, Plymouth Co., MA, until about 1788, when they sold their property and moved to Wayne, Maine. He was not in the 1790 census in Massachusetts, and was missed in the 1790 census in Maine also, but he is in the 1810 census living in Fairfax town, Kennebec Co., ME, and in the 1820 census living in China town, Kennebec Co., ME. Japheth Coombs Washburn was about the 5th child of Japheth and Priscilla. He married first to Betsey Lowney on 18 Apr. 1802 in China, ME. She died by 1818, and he remarried to Sarah Blish on 17 Sept. 1818 in China or Vassalboro, ME. Japheth C. Washburn was living in Fairfax town, ME, in the 1810 census, in China, ME, in the 1820 and 1830 censuses, and in Calais, Washington Co., ME, in the 1840 and 1850 censuses. He was styled "gentleman" in the 1850 census, as he was evidently well on in years. The children of Japheth C. Washburn were born probably in China, ME, or nearby, in the period of 1803 to 1826, and they did have a son named William Vinal Vaughan Washburn born on 11 July 1810, but he would certainly not be able to have fathered your William F. Washburn born in 1880. It sounds to me like you're missing a generation in between. Can anybody else on the list help? John A.
