Among the glories of the old Bay State are truly numbered the Berkshire hills. Lying along the western border of the State, they form a boundary between it and the Empire State, as magnificent as it is marked. Italy, under her sunny skies and beside her blue waters, hath no more beautiful scenery than the Berkshire hills reveal when clothed in the beautiful garments of June, or arrayed in the gorgeous raiment of the Indian summer. Even amid the bleak, howling winds of winter, when the feathery flakes are driven furiously down the gorges of the mountains, or lie piled upon the numerous spurs that lie along the main ridge; even then there is a grandeur that looms up from the white-robed clearings, set in the dark surroundings of the hemlock and pine forests that still crown their summits, though one hundred years have passed since the axe of the settler first resounded through their dim recesses.
Amid these surroundings, in the beginning of the last year of the eighteenth century (January 16, 1799), Elnathan Phelps, the subject of our sketch, was born in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. He was one of ten children-four boys and six daughters born to Benjamin and Sally Phelps. He was familiar with the hardships and privations of a farmer's life among the hills, where, in those days, the greatest luxury, almost, the larder afforded was a pie, with one crust of rye and one of wheat flour, and that provided only on a Sunday; and he therefore determined to go where the country, though less beautiful, was more productive.
When he was twenty years, he gave his father one hundred dollars for his time, and went on foot to western New York, where he worked for a time, getting together thereby some money, when he returned to Pittsfield, where, in 1826, he married Clarissa Colt, who bore him two children, --Edwin and Helen (twins). His wife dying October 21, 1832, he was left alone with his two children, and in the spring of 1833 he removed to Michigan, where he settled on the farm now owned and occupied by his son, Edwin Phelps, in the township of Pontiac.
In 1837 he was united in marriage to Elizabeth Smith, who died in 1842, and Helen, his daughter, then fourteen years of age, took charge of the household. In 1852 he brought another companion to cheer his loneliness, Jane Butler, who survives him. About that time he sold his old homestead, reserving but a small portion, on which he erected a new house, near the old one, in which he resided until his death, which occurred December 2, 1870.
He was a member of the Congregational church, which he united with soon after he came to the county. He afterwards united with the Presbyterian society, and after his last marriage attended the Baptist church. He lived a consistent Christian life, avoiding the law; and having no political ambition, he secured the respect of all who knew him, and was blessed with the affection of his family and love of his friends. He survived all of his father's family save one, his brother, Alfred Phelps, who now resides in Troy, Michigan, who, at the ripe age of seventy-seven years. sheds a genial atmosphere on all who approach him. The old homestead is a lasting monument to its founder, in its elegant improvements and beautiful trees which adorn its spacious area.

Maple Place, Pontiac Twp, Oakland Co. Mich.
Another site of interest is the familiar Phelps home at 1370 Doris Road, The property was named "Maple Place" by its primary resident, Edwin Phelps, who made use of the many maples surrounding the homestead each spring when the sap ran.
The original 160 acre parcel was purchased in 1833 by Elnathan Phelps. Tax and tract records indicate the purchase was made from Jerome Galloway, whose brother, Alexander, probably originally purchased the parcel in 1821 from the government.
The Galloways were early settlers in this area (1819-21) and purchased heavily throughuot the county. A spring-fed lake included in the quarter-section purchase bears the name Galloway.
Elnathan Phelps, son of Sarah (Smellage) and Benjamin Phelps, was born in 1799 in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Prior to his move to Oakland County, his primary concern was woolen manufacturing, but his interest turned to agriculture once he settled here. In 1826, he married Clarissa Colt. They had two children, twins Edwin and Helen (Reeves).
Elnathan died on December 2, 1870. Prior to his death, he sold what appears to be nearly all his land to his son.
Biographical sketches for Oakland County for 1877, 1891 and 1903 include Edwin Phelps among the areas's prominent residents. An 1891 reference suggests Edwin Phelps had "furnished his dwelling with substantial and tasteful appointments, and made many arrangements for the comfort of his family."
Beginning in 1868, Edwin Phelps Jr. acquired the land. He apparently sold the homestead to W. Smith, possibly Walter Smith, his sister, Claras's husband. Walter Smith (and others) sold off various portions of the original homestead, including the later purchase of Elnathan Phelps, until the 1.51 acre parcel was defined as it stands today. P. Smith, listed for the last time in 1966, may be the last direct family member to own this particular parcel.

AN EXTRACT FROM "10 GENERATIONS OF THE DESCENDANTS OF CLAUDIN RUTTAN"

14. Abraham B RUTAN was born in of Metz, Lorraine, France. Christened on 10 Jun 1658 in Metz, Lorraine, France. Died on 19 May 1713 in New Barbadoes, Bergen, New Jersey.

CHRISTENING: An extract from the register of infant baptisms in the Reformed Church of Metz reads: "June 10, 1658. Abraham, son of Daniel Rutan and of Anne de Bize, his wife. Godfathers Abraham Boudat and Paul Cluien, godmothers Marie Bancelin and Susanne Pilon." (Ruttan, 1986 p.7).

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: "While living in Metz, Abraham was a minor and no records of his life there have been found. Probably about 1670, he went into Germany, as did many other Huguenots, and settled in or near Mannheim in the Palantinate where he is believed to have joined the Hasbrouck Party and journeyed with them via Rotterdam, Amsterdam, and England to America, arriving in the town of Boston in early 1675.

Abraham, so far as is known, was the first and only of our name to have emigrated from Europe to America in these times. The Hasbrouck Party sailed on to New York and travelled on, reaching Ulster County in July 1675. They moved on to Esopus, the area around Kingston in Ulster County on the west bank of the Hudson River, where, in 1677, New Paltz was founded. Abraham settled there and the first record of him in America is as a sponsor, on October 14, 1679, at the baptism of a daughter of Peter Deyo, one of the "Douzaine" (the twelve families that established New Paltz) at Kingston, New York. In 1680, the exact date not known, Abraham married Marie Petilion (or Piteljon) who is believed to have come to America in the same group as Abraham. Their children were amongst the first to be baptized in the French Church, which had been established in 1683 at New Paltz.

On September 1, 1689, Abraham took the Oath of Allegiance to the English Crown. By indenture dated October 26, 1699, Abraham bought a parcel of land and meadow in New Barbadoes in the County of Essex in the Province of East New Jersey from Thomas Noell of the City of New York, merchant, and Hannah, his wife. There he and Marie and likely some of their children lived and it seemed prospered, until he died on May 19, 1713. Marie (Mary) died later that same year. With the exception of a parcel of land that had been given to their eldest child, Daniel, and some other small bequests, her will dated February 19, 1712 (or possibly 1713?) directed that her estate be distributed in equal proportions amongst her children. While there is some disagreement among researchers, it appears that Abraham and Marie had twelve children, the first five of whom are recorded as being baptized in the French Church at New Paltz" (Ruttan, 1986 pp. 10-11).

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: "The first known of the Rutan family (in America) is one Abraham Rutan who came to America from Platz-Loraine in 1677. Loraine at that time belonged to France and it was on account of religious persecution that Rutan and a party of friends first went to Manheim, Lower Pallalinate, Germany, from there to Holland and from there to America, landing at Boston, Massachusetts, in 1677 and settling at New Platz, Ulster County, New York. Abraham Rutan married Marie Patiljon who was supposed to have come from Lorraine with the Rutan party. We have no record of her family, however, earlier than 1678 when Marie joined the Dutch Reformed Church of New York City. The date of the marriage of Abraham Rutan and Marie Patiljon is unknown. The earliest church records that we have are recorded in the Dutch Reformed Church, New York City, when in 1860 Abraham Rutan was Godfather for Racheal, the daughter of Abraham Hasbrouck, and also for Samuel, the son of Moses DeGrave." (From a genealogical record of the Rutan Family assembled by Howard Rutan, posted to GenWeb on the Internet by Warren Simmons).

He married Marie PETILION in 1680 in New Platz, Ulster, New York. Marie PETILION was born about 1662 in of Metz, Lorraine, France. Died about 19 May 1713 in New Barbadoes, Bergen, New Jersey. BIRTH: Her birthplace may have been New Paltz, Ulster, NY.

NAME: Also spelled as "Patiljon".

They had the following children:

+17 i. Daniel RUTAN
+18 ii. Paul RUTAN
19 iii. David Abraham RUTAN was christened on 17 Apr 1688 in New Paltz, Ulster, New York. Died in 1775 in Morristown.

CHRISTENING: "His godparents were Peter Doye and Genne Vybau" (Ruttan, 1986 p.11). Baptized in the French church in New Paltz. His Godparent's names are spelled elsewhere (on GenWeb) as "Piere Dygle" and "Genne Uylar".

An unsourced IGI record reportedly shows a marriage date of 25 Jun 1616 in Arden, Warwick, England between John Drake and Lettice Shakespeare (Note: a reputed relative of William Shakespeare).As a possible confirmation of this, a record dated 25 Jun1615 has been found. The handwriting is very hard to read. It seems to say "John Drake & Lettes Srhaxper were married 25th day of June 1615" See attached marriage record.

Death record 6 Dec 1623 in Bradford, West Yorkshire "the wife of John Drake of London" would not seem to be the correct person, based on location. Although this is offered as the death record in certain online trees.

ANN ELIZA (OSBORNE) UNKNOWN

BIRTH:
Abt 1827 in Kings, New York -per census records 1865, 1870, 1875.

PARENTS:
Unknown.
Father’s name may be McPherson. See reasoning below).

MARRIAGE:
William E Osborne.
Marriage date by 1855 for birth of William and certainly by 1859 (based on William E and Ann E signing off on a real estate deed in connection with his father’s estate). Her maiden name may be McPherson. Her son in law, Cornelius Melvin, listed Eliza McPherson as his first wife (who passed away) on a naval pension document. On a different document he listed his first wife as Lida Osborn. Perhaps Eliza was Lida’s correct name. Perhaps Mcpherson was her mother’s name at this time Lida was born. Which could indicate that Ann Eliza already had Lida before she married William E. (according to the New York State Census Ann Eliza was on her first marriage and William his second.) Also, on the 1865 New York State Census, a sister Emeline Mcfeeson (McPherson??) is living in the Osborne household. Emeline being 39 years younger than William and 14 years younger than Ann Eliza was probably the sister of Ann Eliza, not William.

Note about Cornelius Melvin: He seems to be loose with the names. He served two enlistments in the Navy as Cornelius H Melvin and two enlistments as Cornelius Higgins. His given reason, was because his mother did not want him to go back in, he signed up under a different name. We suspect it may be because he had a criminal record. He states that Higgens was his mother’s maiden name. But on all of the marriage records we have, he does not give a mother’s maiden name of Higgens!

CENSUS RECORDS:
We cannot identify Ann Eliza in any census record prior to 1865.

We cannot identify Ann Eliza in any census record after 1875.

REAL ESTATE:
We have found no real estate transactions in the name of Wm E Osborn or his wife Ann Eliza, but she does appear in connection with the settlement of the estate of her husband’s father.
Deed filed 5 Sep 1859 in Monroe County, New York liber 172 p 118 in connection with the estate of Israel osborn, lists the following as his heirs at law:
William E Osborn and wife Ann Eliza Osborn
Nathaniel W Osborn and his wife Roxy S Osborn
John A McGonegal and wife the former Ursula Osborn
Franklin Leggett and wife Susan M Leggett (He is son of the deceased Mary Osborn)
Charles I Osborn

NEWSPAPERS:
Obituary for her daughter Lida.
The Rochester Union Advertiser 4 May 1878
In this city, Friday afternoon, May ??, 18??(very fuzzy), Lida C Melvin, wife of Cornelius H Melvin, and daughter of William E and Ann Eliza Osborne, aged 34 years, 7 months and ? days.

DEATH:
Unknown

BURIAL:
Unknown

CHILDREN:
Lida b. 1843 may have been the child of Ann Eliza before she married William E Osborne.
William b. 1855 was probably the child of William E (in particular the middle name of Hayden would seem to indicate he was named by Israel Osborn, after Israel’s mother Anna Hayden) and Lida.
The 1865 census listed that Ann Eliza who was on her first marriage had 4 children. Considering the 25 year age difference between William E and Ann E, the 4 children may have been William’s children or a combination of William’s and Ann’s children.
It is therefore a possibility that William had two or three children that we do not know about.
The theory that William H and Lida have different biological parents helps us make sense of the marriage of William H’s daughter (Lillian) to Lida’s son (Edgar). A first cousin marriage does not seem correct of people not living in a rural and/or isolated area. Also, the 25 year age difference makes it less likely that a 40 year old William married a 15 year old, which would be necessary for Lida to be his daughter.

Osborne, Lida C (I5873)

ANN UNKNOWN GREENSLADE PUDEATER

Nothing is known of Ann's parentage, birthplace or birthdate. It is assumed that she was born about 1617-1622 based upon her age of 70-75 at death in 1692. It would also be assumed that she was born in England as emigration did not begin to the Maine area until well after her presumed birthdate. Her maiden name is unknown. We can find references in Maine for her first husband and some of her children, but she is not mentioned. It is assumed that she was in Maine with her first husband and her children. In 1673 references for her husband and children began showing up in Salem, Massachusetts.

The first reference using Ann's name was 1677 in Salem:
Thomas Greenslett, dying intestate, court granted administration upon his estate to Ann Greenslett, who was to pay the debts as far as the inventory, which was 3 li, 16s, sd., would allow.

In 1677 or later she remarried Jacob Pudeater:
From Torreys "New England Marriages":
Greenslad, Thomas (-1674) & Ann _____ (-1692), m/2 Jacob PUDEATOR/PUDEATER 1677+; by 1652; Falmouth, ME/Scarborough, ME {Salem 2:398, 3:64; Averill 1:112; Sv. 2:310; GDMNH 289; Porter 25; EIHC 3:228, 4:37}

An inquiry by the Salem Quarterly Court in 1680 contains the following testimony regarding the death of Jacob Pudeator's first wife:
John Barton(sig) Chirurgeon of Salem, testified that "being called to ye house of Jacob Pudeator for to visett his former wife I found her upon ye bed in a sencelesse stupifyed condition not able to spake one word, felt of her hands & she was extream cold, with little or noe pulse. After Enquiry how she came into that condition ye said Pudeater with ye widow Greenslet did answer that she had been a broad adrinking of Rum & being a very slibery cold time, she fell downe & not being able to rise againe lay in ye said place some considerable time till somebody found her & brought her into ye house and after administration of several Medicines, in some few days she was recovered, & sat up in a chair by the fire, haueing some competency of sence & reason, then there being Mr. John Browne, Sr. admonishing her, she seemed to be troubled for her fault & promised amendment. I ye said Barton chargeing & requiring ye said Pudeator & ye nurss Greenslet not to giue her any rum or other strong Drinkes for they answered they shall not need to doe itt, for she would haue itt if it was to be had, for their backs could not be turned, but she would out of doors & carry anything with her to pawne for Rum, & as her husband said she had made away with most of ye necessaryes of ye house for Rum, soe I left her by ye fireside in a hopefull way of recouervy, & in a short time after I heard she was dead, much to my amazement." Sworn, May 31, 1680, before Bartho. Gidney(sig), commissioner.
Ann Pudeator testified that the night her husband's first wife died she was in the same room and saw Pudeator give his wife Rum in a porringer, as she sat in her chair, three several times, and, about a half an hour after, they saw that she was dead. Sworn, Apr 26, 1680, before Wm. Hathorne(sig), assistant.
Humphrey Case, aged about fifty years, testified that the night before she died he heard her ask for a dram, whereupon he gave her a white earthen porringer full of brandy. She drank part of it and he urged her to drink it all, but she said she would bye and bye. The porringer was as full each time as it could be conveniently handed one from another. Sworn, Apr 27, 1680, before Bartho Gedney(sig), commissioner.
Symon Booth, aged about thirty-nine years, and Recha Booth, aged about thirty-nine years, deposed that about two and three-quarters years ago they lived in Salem in a house of Jacob Pudeater's and Isabell, wife of said Jacob, on the afternoon before she died, about three of four o'clock, came to their house and smoked a pipe of tobacco. She talked rationally and seemed in reasonable good health. At about eight or nine o'clock they heard she was dead, and Symon testified that, at eleven or twelve o'clock, he saw her stretched out dead upon a board or table in Pudeator's house.

In 1682 Jacob Pudeator died.
Will of Jackob (his mark) Pudetor, proved 28:9:1682:"Imprimis. After my Debts And Funeral Expences Dyscharged that the Remayner of the Whole Estate both housing Land & Goods shall Be for ye use of my wife An Pudetor During her Naturall Life. Secondly: my will is that If It plese god to tak me out of the work By this Sickness then the five pound that John Grenslitt oeth me the Next year shall Be frely for Given him. Thirdly. My will is that the other fore of my wifes Children that is to saye Thomas Grenslitt & Ruth & Samuel & James Grenslit shall haue Each of them five pounds A peece out of the Estate After My wiues Desece.

Wit: John Browne(Sig) and Francis Skerry(sig)

In 1692 Ann Pudeater was charged with sorcery and witchcraft:
Transcriptions of arrest warrants and trial testimony is listed under "misc notes" below.

On 22 Sep 1692 Ann Pudeater was executed by hanging at Gallows Hill, Salem, Massachusetts. The disposition of her body is unknown. A stone commemorating her was engraved and placed at the witches' memorial in Salem, Massachusetts along with stones honoring the other executed victims of the witchcraft paranoia in Salem.

Ann Pudeator
Written By Rachel Walker
Salem Witch Trials in History and Literature
An Undergraduate Course, University of Virginia
Spring Semester 2001
When Ann was arrested on May 12th 1692, she was a twice-widowed woman of property in Salem Town. Although her testimony is well-documented in the transcripts of the Court of Oyer and Terminer, details of her origins before the trials of 1692 are largely unknown. Ann is thought to have been born in England sometime between 1622 and 1627. She married her first husband, Thomas Greenslit (also spelled Greenslade) and had five children with him sometime before 1677. Her name appears for the first time in the public record of Salem Town on the certificate of inventory for the his estate following his death in 1674.

The family had likely lived in Falmouth, Maine during the birth of Ann's children, Thomas, Ruth, John, James, and Samuel, between 1650 & 1660. Although the eventual whereabouts of each of her children remains almost as unknown as Ann's own activities, her eldest son Thomas Pudeator went on to play a central role in the trial of the Reverend George Burroughs. He testified to the man's extraordinary feat of strength in lifting a gun at arm's length with just one finger in the barrel. In Salem Story, historian Bernard Rosenthal suggests that this may have been a last-ditch effort by Thomas to save his own mother from execution by appearing to join sides with the witch-hunters.

Ann was left destitute after her first husband died in 1674, probably working in the paid profession of a midwife and nurse. Her name does not appear again until March of 1678, when she is recorded as the wife of her neighbor Jacob Pudeator, a man about 20 years her junior. This unusual circumstance was calls attention to the fact that Ann had served as nurse to Jacob's first wife Isabel during her illness, and married Jacob less than a year after Isabel's unexplained death between 1675-1676. Jacob, too, passed away in 1682, leaving monetary bequests to each of Ann's five children, as well as the remainder of his property to Ann herself. Afterwards, Ann occupied the rather precarious position of being a professional woman of property in a male-dominated society.

Historian Carol F. Karlsen suggests that Ann became a prime target for allegations of witchcraft after she scolded John Best, Jr. for returning her lost cow from his fold. Best claimed that "he did conclude said Pudeator was a witch" because she "would chide me when I came home from turning the cow back." In her book, The Devil in the Shape of a Woman, Karlsen argues that women such as Ann who dared to defy the Puritan gender standard of the unassertive and docile female put themselves at great risk to be singled out for punishment through witchcraft accusations. She also implies that Ann's occupation of midwife, regardless of whether she earned money (for this is not confirmed), may have threatened other male medical professionals in Salem Town, leading to accusations. Birth was a risky act and filled with apprehension in that time period, loss of life during the process was often blamed on the malignant forces of the devil at work through witchcraft.

Whatever the motivations for her accusers, a warrant for Ann Pudeator and another woman, Alice Parker, was written on May 12th 1692. Pudeator was brought to trial on July 2nd, 1692. Sarah Churchill was the first to accuse Ann of having tormented her, by appearing with the book of the devil and asking her to sign it. She also accused Ann of having presented her with several images of accusing girls that she proceeded to torture like voodoo dolls with thorns. Five more of the circle of accusing girls confirmed these accusations - both Mary Warren and Ann Putnam falling into fits during Pudeator's examination and then being cured by a touch of Ann's hand. In addition to these displays, Elizabeth Hubbard, Mary Walcott, and Sarah Bibber also presented testimony that Pudeator had afflicted them through pinching, pressing and choking. The constable Joseph Neal described his discovery of "curious containers of various ointments" suspected to have been associated with Ann's alleged witchcraft at her house upon her arrest, and asserted that she was an "ill-carriaged woman" whom he was convinced had adversely affected his wife in her service as midwife. During her examination Ann insisted that these jars were simply filled with Neat's Foot Oil. Incriminating evidence of Ann's relation to animal familiars was given by Samuel Pickworth, who related seeing a bird fly by one night as he walked upon Salem Street, and soon after noticing a woman coming out of Ann's home, presumably the same entity as the bird. Going even farther, Mary Warren said that Pudeator had caused John Turner to fall from a tree, and accused Ann of killing her husband Jacob, Jacob's first wife Isabel, as well as the wives of John Best and Joseph Neal.

Throughout the trials, Ann remained consistent but relatively unassertive in her declarations of innocence. She insisted that she did not know her accusers, nor anything of the art of witchcraft. In response to curiosity about the ointments, she simply explained they were containers of grease to make her soap. Although her testimony in itself was not particularly noteworthy, her petition to the court, written before her death, merits acknowledgement for its simple denunciation of her accusers. Bernard Rosenthal brings this to light in his book, Salem Story,, pointing out that Ann accused Mary Warren, Sarah Churchill, John Best, Sr. and Jr., and Samuel Pickworth of bearing false witness against her. Particularly of note was her scathing addition that John Best Jr. was a known liar: "the abovesaid Jno Best hath been formerly whipt and likewise is [recorded] for a Lyar". In retrospect, this charge cast considerable doubt upon the validity of John's accusations, as well as the credibility of any court that would admit the testimony of a publicly acknowledged liar.

Strangely enough, not one of Ann's children came to her defense during the trials. Widowed and abandoned by her remaining kinfolk, Ann Pudeator, at that time somewhere between 70 and 75 years old, was hanged upon Gallows Hill on Sept. 22nd 1692, in what would be the final set of executions resulting from the Salem Witch trials.

Apparently a teller of tall tales. Contemporaries believed that he was about 128 when he died. However first child in 1707 and last child in 1729 gives estimated birthdate between 1670 and 1690. (figuring no children before 17 or after 60).

Per "A Huff Genealogy, Descendants of Engelbert Huff of Dutchess County New York"; There is no evidence that Engelbert's father was named Leonhardt, as appears in some online trees.

Some genealogies refer to this person as Engel Hoff b. Norway, won of Engelbert Hoff b. Norway.

During his lifetime all records used Hoff, Hof or Hoef as spellings of his name. Predominately Hoff, Huff was never used.

Appears in 1840 census living next to Hiram Maxfield in Groveland Twp. Varnis & Hiram appear in legal notice in 1837 New York Newspaper, as "residents of Michigan". There ages, both born in New Hampshire, both moving from New York to Michigan at about the same time, living next to each other in Michigan, both marrying female last name of Irish, lends credence to their being closely related, probably brothers.

Varnis has child born in New York in 1831 and 1834, then the next one in Michigan in 1838. He apparently moved to Michigan in that 1834-38 time period.

Varnis appears twice on the Oakland County land records: 14 June 1843 Varnie Maxfield purchased from David Irish 40 acres. 10 Jun 1855 Varnis Maxfield quit claims to Manly Irish (son of David). David died in 8 Jan 1855 so this quit claim may have had something to do with settling David's estate.

Also on the 1840 census D (David) Irish and L (Liberty) Irish appear as the two households just prior to the Hiram and Varnis households.

Article in History of Outagamie County- by Thomas Henry Ryan.

AUGUST ROTHLESBERGER, one of the progressive, up-to-date farmers of Seymour township, who has made his own way in the world and made a place for himself among the successful men of his section through hard work and a determination to succeed, was born October 25, 1856, at Port Washington, Ozaukee county, Wisconsin, a son of John and Matilda (Wachter) Rothlesberger, natives of Germany. The parents of Mr. Rothlesberger were farming people and their first property was located at Fredonia, where they resided seven years, then moving to Batavia. They continued to reside at this place until locating in Seymour Township, settling on 120 acres of wild land, where they continued to live during the remainder of their lives. Mr. Rothlesberger's death occurred in 1898, when he was sixty-nine years old, and the mother passed away in 1904. They had the following children: August, George, William, Barney, Minnie, Lydia and Allie.

August Rothlesberger was the oldest of his parents' children, and as soon as he was able to reach the plow handles he was given his share of duties to perform on the home farm. He was reared to the life of an agriculturist and experienced all of the hard, unremitting toil of breaking in a new country, and no time was given him to acquire an education. Much observation, however, has given him a store of knowledge not to be gained in books, and he has never found that the lack of schooling interfered in any way with his ambition to succeed. When he purchased the old homestead it was graced with a little shanty and a log barn, but he soon added eighty acres to the original forty, built a fine house and a barn 40x100 feet, and settled down to general farming. Mr. Rothlesberger has one of the finest herds of Holstein cattle to be found in Outagamie County, and he makes on an average of 145 pounds of butter each week. His barn is equipped with all modern improvements as to sanitary needs and cleanliness, and includes the James patent stalls and stanchions.

In 1890 Mr. Rothlesberger was married to Josie Schimmelpfennig, daughter of August and Minnie Schimmelpfennig, and three children have been born to this union, namely: Ella, August and Hulda.

Attached copy of deed dated 3 Sept 1812 shows Daniel Cornell selling & assigning his real estate to George Cornell, Daniel Cornell, Sylvania Cornell and Samuel Cornell. (they would be all of his male children).

From wikitree:
Daniel Cornell was born 18 March 1757. He and his family lived in Virginia in 1783. They were flooded out, thenmoved to New York and later to Ontaria, Canada. In Canada, he established the first Grist Mill. Later he moved to Pennsylvania, then to Cincinnati, Ohio. He finally settled in Ridgeville, Ohio in 1840. Some of his sons went to Indiana; Sylvenus went to Mt. Holly, Clermont County, Ohio: George N. located at Ridgeville, WarenCounty, Ohio and Samuel at Lytle, Warren County, Ohio.

A short time after the death of Zeruiah Cornell (Daniel's wife), grandfather Daniel Cornell went back to visit his relatives in Candada. Sometime later whle riding in a two horse sleigh - a team hitched to a bobsled ran into the sleigh from the back, the tongue striking Daniel who was instantly killed.

Augusta County marriage records show that he married Margret Jackson on 17 Dec 1805.

Revolutionary War Pension for James Caruthers, as found on footnote.com shows he entered the service from Staunton, Augusta County, Virginia, although he later moved to Blount County, Tennessee. He was born 5 April 1760. He died 13 Jan 1846 and his widow Margaret (born 1 June 1769) applied for widow’s pension. The application states they married in 1806 in Augusta County, although no marriage record was able to be found in Augusta County at the time of the application. The information in this pension file is entirely consistent with the marriage record of 17 Dec 1805 which was later found in Augusta County.

The pension file furthur states; “He was born in Chester County State of Pennsylvania on the 5th day of April in the year 1760. And at the early age of about 10 years moved with his father’s family to Augusta County, Virginia, where he resided at the time he was called into service.”

The 1820 US Census shows Elizabeth Caruthers living in Staunton, Augusta County. We would assume that the family home was also in Staunton at the beginning of the revolution. (1810 census only gives County, 1800 and 1790 are lost)

It seems quite likely that these records all refer to the same person and the real question is; how is James Caruthers related to John? 33 years older than John would seem to rule out being a brother, perhaps James is a brother to David, his father. As to marrying a Jackson, did the two brothers marry two sisters? Also note the reference to Samuel Jackson in James Caruthers’ will. There was also a reference to a Samuel Jackson in David Caruthers will.

It would seem that it is extremely likely that this James is related to our David, perhaps as a brother, perhaps as a cousin?

ASSESSMENT OF THE TOWNSHIP OF HALLOWELL FOR

THE YEAR 1808.

Commencing the 7th March, 1808, and ending the 6th March, 1809.

The following, copied from an old Hallowell assessment list,
cannot fail to impress readers, especially young readers, of
to-day. The very names must be dear to all who are
descendants of tbe former landholders, while the proportions of
cleared and uncleared land at the date of the assessment should
prove of considerable interest.

In addition to the figures here copied the roll contains
columns headed houses; round logs; square timber, one storey and fire-places;
square timber, two storeys and fire-places; framed, under two storeys;
brick or stone, one storey, with fire-places; grist mill, run by
water, and additional pair of stones; wind mill; saw mill;
merchant shop; store houses; horses ; oxen; cows; cattle;
swine; stills ; billiard tables; vessels of eight tons, etc.
There were 101 round log houses, 3 of square timber, 28 framed
under two storeys, 1 brick or stone, 1 saw mill, 2 merchant shops,
146 horses, 105 oxen, 384 cows, 5 cattle, 90 swine, no stills,
no billiard tables, no boats of eight tons, and no wind mills.

Isaac Garrett, Aaron White, Thos. Bowerman, Henry Young, Arthur Elsworth
and another Harry Young had four horses each, all the rest fewer,
Widow Dugal and Silas Hill had each two yoke of oxen, but the widow
had also a span of horses, while Silas had none. Ten cattle and
six cows were owned by Thomas Bowerman, and these, with a yoke
of oxen, four horses, and two swine made him the largest stock
owner in the township.

Among the largest landholders were Gideon Bowerman, with 1,500 acres;
Ebenezar Washburn, with 1,150; James Blakely, with 1,740;
Barret Dyer, with 1,900, and Silas Hill, with 955 acres.

Some documents in Quebec of her father Henrich Ruiter mention his 'son-in-law' Joseph de Groat. In his book Rick Ashton "The life of Henry Ruiter" on page 52 assigns Joseph de Groat to his daughter Gertrude. He does not assign a husband to Hannah. We believe he erred, as the specific daughter who married Joseph De Groat was not mentioned in any records that he had seen. I do not know what his reasoning was.
