    Notes from Diane Hopmann (DSHopmann@aol.com) on 27 Jan 2000)


    I have Pauline Young's Abstract book and do recall wondering som e of the same
    things that you mentioned in your letter. I too felt that Josep h's Agnes
    might be a McCarter. Another possibility was that she was a Sco tt, Pressley
    is another possibility.

    I have several big problems that I have been unable to solve reg arding Agnes.
    One is that I can't find her in a census in 1800 and 1810. Ther e is a good
    possibility that she is in the household of her daughter, Margar et Harris,
    and son-in-law. My theory is that this John Harris below was th e son-in-law.

    I know the area Agnes lived in when she died was the Lowndesvill e area in
    northern Abbeville Co. Not sure if that was where she lived wit h Joseph.

    Another problem. Cay Devin sent me an article taken from an Ala bama local
    family history book, that pertained to our William Andrew Crawfo rd and some
    of his descendents. This William Andrew Crawford would be a gra ndson of
    Joseph. The author of the article wrote that William immigrate d from
    Scotland, and married another Crawford who was not related to hi m on board
    the ship. I am going to pull that article and reread it again to night. Now
    Cay and I know that William Andrew b. 1816 in Abbeville was no t the
    immigrant. William Andrew Crawford's 1880 census indicates tha t both of his
    parents were born in SC, which matches what Cay and I have found . William
    Andrew's father was William L.(Lindsey probably) Crawford b. 177 6-1780
    roughly. We believe that William L. Crawford is the son of Jose ph Crawford
    and maybe Agnes. She refers to William L. Crawford as her son i n her will,
    but I have wondered if she would have called him that if she wa s his
    step-mother?

    One of the papers in the drawer (will try to reread that too ton ight) has a
    ship list that lists James Crawford (older than Joseph), Josep h Crawford (age
    I believe was about 21), and a Margaret Crawford age 14. I beli eve this was
    a ship list for one of the 1760's ships that had poor Irish aboa rd. This
    seems as though this would be our Joseph, who is found on tax li st in 1779 in
    Old 96th Dist. This Margaret might be the Crawford that he marr ied.
    Margaret was a name used among descendents quite often, whereas , we don't
    have a single Agnes descendent. But we do have one that was nam ed Margaret
    A. I have wondered if Margaret and Agnes could be one in the sa me, but
    Agnes' census indicates that she was born from 1760-1770 on th e 1830 census.
    Her daughters, Nancy and Mary have incorrect ages during that ce nsus so
    perhaps Agnes' was recorded incorrectly also. On the other han d would a 14
    year old in the mid 1760's have given birth in 1790-1794 to Nanc y and Mary?
    That's getting pretty old. Agnes does mention in her will tha t the older
    children (which she refers to as her children) had already recei ved their
    share from their father's estate. Then she leaves everything t o the two
    younger women, Nancy and Mary Crawford. At times I wondered i f she had
    remarried and that they were from another father, but their age s in 1850
    indicate that they were born before Joseph's death.

    Unfortunately, after all of this longwinded explanation I stil l don't have
    much of an answer to your question. I am very glad you wrote an d had
    wondered at times if Samuel had married Agnes Crawford, widow o f Joseph. Do
    you have an age for that Agnes?

    Have you found the McCarter's on a ship list? Did they by chanc e live in the
    Lowndesville area? Could you send me a list information about M oses, his
    wife's name, and their children?

    I will try to look through some of the papers I have and see i f anything else
    come to mind. Be glad to share any information I have about th e Crawfords.

    Diane Hopmann-MO

    P. S. Cay at this point I am kind of leaning toward Margaret a s our ancestor
    who probably gave birth to Margaret (Harris), Isabelle (Allen) , William L.,
    and Elizabeth. Perhaps Agnes was the step-mother, who then gav e birth to
    Nancy and Mary. She would have been a step-mother for about 5 2 years when
    she died and maybe they just didn't use the "step" designation l ike we do
    these days. The oldest child might have only been about 10-14 s o she would
    have been quite involved in their upbringing.

    From Mary Claunch Lane's book "The Claunch Family"


    "There is the pronunciation of the names Glantz, when spoken b y a German sounds like Clontz or Clawnch or Claunce. The LDS rec ords show hundreds of Glantzs in Germany. They were mostly in t he Rhineland which would also make them Palentines.

    In 1732 our ancestry family arrived in Philidelphia aboard the " Adventure". We have an "English" ship captain or his clerk who , for whatever reason, lists our ancestry as Jerimy Glance wit h a wife and two children. On the captains list we also find Ha nce Micalle Glance and Hans Machal Meik. Hans and/or Hance can a lso, be presumed to be "John". There is on board the Adventur e a young girl named Anna Margreate Glance, age 9. Anna and Mar garet are both Claunch names. German Pioneers in Pennsylvania (G en. Pub House) provides the following information. Philidelphi a required all ships to produce three lists of immigrants:

    1) Captains list providing name, place of birth and occupations ;
    2) Oath of allegiance to the Crown for males over 21
    3) Oath to suppor the Commonweath of Pennsylvania for males ove r 21

    List 23 A (captain's list): A list of ye names of all ye men an d ages on board ye Adventure (Robt. Curson, Mr. from Rotterdam . Qualified Sep 23, 1732.)

    Andreuss Killaem
    Jerimy Glance age 29
    Andreuss Horne
    Marrea Medl. Glance age 30
    Anna Margreate Glance age 9
    Hance Micalle Glance age 4
    Hans Michal Meik no age given


    List 23 B (Oath to the Crown): Names of males over 21 which ar e in the following order:

    Andreas Kilian
    Hieronymus Glantz
    Andreas Horne
    Hanns Michael Haag
    Georg Michael Mack
    Hans Peter Steyger


    List 23 C (Oath to the Commonwealth): Names of males over 21 whi ch are in the same order as list 23 B.

    Andreas Kilian
    Hieronymus Glantz
    Andreas Horne
    Hanns Michael Haag
    Georg Michael Mack
    Hans Peter Steyger

    There can be little doubt that Jerimy Glance and Hieronymus Glan tz are the same person and that Hans Michal Meik and Georg Micha el Mack are the same person. The ship's list was made by a cler k and B and C from signatures. Hieronymus is said to mean Jerom e, shortened to Jerimy. It is also said that Hans can be transl ated as John or Johann.

    The records of the LDS church indicate that on 15 Oct 1733 in wh at would eventually be a part of Lebanon County, PA, an Hieronym us Glantz married Erna Barbara Mack. This would be a second mar riage for him, since he had a wife aboard the ship.

    The name next appears in Lunenburg County, Virginia as Jeremia h Glaush in 1748. In 1749 the the tithe master named him as Jer miah Clanch. In 1750 he is still Jeremiah Clanch and he has i n his household a certain George Mack. And further in 1752 in Lu nenburg County we have a John Clonch appearing on the tithe list . This could be the four-year old child listed on the ship list ing.


    From "The Family of Madison Love Claunch, Sr. "

    "Jeremiah Glaush appears on the earliest known tithe list (1748 ) for Lunenburg County, Virginia. We think it is only a sligh t presumption to consider this as the same person who will appea r on 1749 and 1750 Tithe Lists as "Jeremiah Clanch". In 1751, h e is listed as "Jeremiah Clansh". However, also in 1751, that i s a court record wherein a Jeremiah Claunch is recorded as being , a surety in matters pertaining to the estate of a Henry Smith . During this period, he is indicated as being a "head of house hold". The only other person shown as being in his household i s a "George Mock (or, Mark)". We do not, at this time, have an y further information on "George Mock (Mark)"."

    Note: only men over 16 are listed.

    "Sometime between 1765 and 1774 the Claunchs, from whatever plac e and of whatever generation, moved into that part of western Vi rginia that can now be identified as Montogomery County. Jeremia h "Clonch" is advertising a stray horse in 1774. He land gran t is dated Dec. 31, 1775 and is described as being 80 acres "o n both sides of Chestnut Creek." In 1777, Jeremiah "Cloynch" wi ll swear allegiance to the Commonwealth of Virginia and refuse s uch allegiance to King George III. In 1777, he is accused of "be ing inimical to the Governmoent of the State -." He is acquite d of that charge. "

    In 1781 Jeremiah Clonch, along with John and Edmond "Clonsh" app ear on Muster List of the Montgomery County Militia. Males betwe en the ages of 18 and 50 were required to be members of the mili tia. It seems significant that Jeremiah is noted as being "no t fit".

    From "Ancestors and Descendants of George and Margaret Bates Mar tin" by Lois Firmin:

    "The brothers, George and William Martin seemed to stay close t o one another until George came to Platte Co. in the late 1830's . William remained in Cole Co. Mo. (later Moniteau).

    The marriage records for Cumberland County, Ky, and White County, Tn . have pretty much been lost so have not been able to find marri age records on George or any of his siblings. Fromt he Christia n names of William's children, the fact that the two families st ayed so close even after the death of William and his first wif e -- would make it appear that his first wife was also a daughte r of Elijah and sister to Mrs. George Martin, Henderson Bates an d Mrs. Thomas Hardcastle and probably Mrs. Eveline Baird."

    Mrs. Martin mother of Captain John W. Martin, died at the reside nce of her son in this county last week. The deceased was advanc ed in years and her death has been expected for some time. She w as a good woman and posses many friends who lament her loss."

    5868 [TEST_file_Nov2002.ged]

    From "Ancestors and Descendants of George and Margaret Bates Mar tin" by Lois Firmin:

    The earliest we have been able to trace Nathaniel Martin, fathe r of George Martin, is 1786 when he is listed as a Tithable (tax payer) in Nelson County, VA (later KY) and is shown again in 1790.

    In 1791, he is shown in the list of Tithables of Capt. Sandowski 's Co. 7 July 1791. The heading also stated "Ordered John Hardi n to take tithables in Capt. Sandusky's and Kennet's Company" Th ese are probably just neighbors organizing themselves into hom e militia as protection from the Indians or white marauders.

    Marriage Bonds of Nelson County 1785-1832 contains the following : "Nathaniel Martin married Elizabeth Ray, daughter of Mary Ray . Surety, Thomas Cunningham. Consent filed with bond July 24 , 1787."

    Nelson County, KY, including what later became Washington Co to th e mid-north and Cumberland Co. to the south. The Ray families a re listed on the same date when taking tithables and again as ne ighbors in Cumberland Co. On Nov. 17, 1796, in Washington Co. , KY, Nathaniel Martin signed consent and marriage bond as Sucur ity for Sarah OBanon and Nathaniel Ray. It is thought Nathanie l and William Ray were brothers of Elizabeth. These Ray familie s appear to have come to KY from Maryland.

    Nathaniel Martin appears in the Washington County, KY. Tax Record s in 1792, 1793, 1794, 1795 and 1796. He owns no land but ha s 4 horses and 13 cattle in 1792, four horses in 1793 but onl y 6 cattle. In 1793, he is taxed for only two horses and 6 cattl e. Same for 1794. Nothing shown for acres in any year and no c attle or horses shown in 1796. Just two days apart, William Mar tin is listed. He and Nathaniel both over 21 Whites but no acre s shown for him either. In 1795, he is listed for Wm. Castleman 's land and in 1797 and 1799 for Wm. Cartright's land.

    It may be that Nathaniel left Washington Co. in 1796 to homestea d in Cumberland Co. (originally part of Green Co. which was orig inally part of Nelson Co. KY) The following from "Early Kentuck y Land Grant":

    No. 583 dated May 13, 1799. Nathaniel Martin 200 acres second-r ate land on Martin's Creek joining the big clay lick bottom, beg inning at a beech and dogwood thence running N50W, N40 E, S50E , S40W for quantity.

    No. 645. John Martin 200 acres second-rate land upon Martin's C reek adjoining the big clay lick bottom, beginning at two ash tr ees corner to Nathaniel Martin's thence with Martin's lin 550 E , S40W to a military line thence with said line N57W and 40E fo r quantity.

    (It is suspected this John Martin is Nathaniel's brother or fath er. It is also suspected the William Martin in Washington Co . is either a brother or father, probably a brother since he own s no property.)

    In 1800, Nathaniel Martin is listed as an Adjutant in the Corn S talk Militia of Cumberland County, KY. This would indicate that h e could both read and write. The 1800 KY census for Cumberlan d Co KY North of Green River was either not taken or lost, and t his was the area in which Nathaniel lived.

    Nathaniel was also in the War of 1812, being a Cpl. in 1812 in B arbee's Regiment of KY Militia and in 1813 a Pvt. in Capt. Joh n Walker's Infantry of KY Militia Detached.

    The 1810 census of Cumberland County, KY, lists the following for N athaniel Martin.

    Males Female s Blacks
    2 under 10 yrs 3 under 10 yr s none
    1 10-16 yrs 0 10-16 yrs
    3 16-26 yrs 1 16-26 yrs
    0 26-45 yrs 1 26-45 yrs
    1 over 45 yrs 0 over 45 yrs.


    There are several deed transfers in Cumberland Co. from 1817 thr u 1819 by Nathaniel Martin. Nathaniel and George Martin have al ready received grants form the Mountain Dist. Land Office in Nas hville, TN for land on the Caney Fork in the First District of W hite County, Tennessee. In 1817, Nathaniel Martin sold his far m in White County, to Elijah Bates.

    From the White County Grant Book in Courthouse, Sparta, Tennesse e:

    Book E, Page 24

    Indenture made 10 Jan 1817 between Nathaniel Martin and Elijah B ates. Bates paid $600. to Nathaniel Martin for a parcel of lan d in the first district on the waters of the Caney Fork.

    A. T. Bonds Home

    The A. T. Bonds Home is located in the northwest part of Frankli n County, approximately halfway between Frankfort and Pleasant S ite. This house is situated roughly one-half mile north of th e Bonds Cemetery, which is adjacent to the Old Jacinto Road. Wh en originally built, this house consisted of only one log room . As was customary in these times, additional rooms were adde d as the need arose. All of these later rooms were built of pin e lumber. Two original stone chimneys are still standing and fu nctional. The house also has several outbuildings nearby.

    The exact date that the Bonds house was built is not known, bu t the closeest estimate places its construction as between 1850 , and 1855. The builder and owner of the house at that time wa s A. T. (Andy) Bonds who ran a store near the house. He was als o the local postmaster at the Blue Lick Post Office, which was l ocated in this house. During the Civil War, Yankee soilders sup posedly spend the night here.

Patsy Arnold Claunc h died sometime before 1840. We think that Love died sometime j ust prior to, or immediately after 1850. He is not on the 185 0 census. His land was sold December of 1852 for $850.10. Afte r expenses, his estate amounted to $914. 32. Each of his four s ons received $228.58.

    From Diane Hopman (DSHopmann@aol.com) on 27 Jan 2000


    I think that there is a good chance that Susannah's mother, Eliz abeth A.
    Porter Dobbins, died giving birth to Susannah. So she probabl y never knew
    her mother. Elizabeth seems to already be gone by 1820 (see m y census
    theories below).

    My deathdate for Susannah's father, James Dobbins Jr., came fro m the files of
    Bobby Dobbins Title. She had that he died "about 1836". I thin k he was dead
    by 1830. (see below). There is a James Dobbins enumerated in 1 830, but I
    think I looked at it and I didn't think it was him. There are s ome other
    Dobbins that I believe are cousins in Pendleton, at the same tim e. Jesse
    Dobbins, etc. I have been meaning to look at those Pendleton ce nsuses a
    little closer.

    In any event, I think Susannah was living with her Porter grandp arents,
    probably from near birth if not birth. Maybe her father didn' t want much to
    do with the new baby if his wife died giving birth to her, and h er maternal
    grandparents took her in. They probably were glad to do so in r emembrance of
    their daughter. Then Grandma Dobbins moved in with James to hel p with the
    other kids. Susannah's father probably died by the time she wa s eleven, but
    she hadn't been living with him anyway. I think they refered t o people back
    then as orphans if their parents were dead even if there was som eone to take
    care of them. My Paternal grandfather always refered to his fat her as an
    orphan. I was wondering how in the world he could have been a n orphan since
    he had a brother. That has been a real chore to research, but i t turns out
    that he had quite a few siblings. His father died when he was a bout one, and
    his mother died before he was ten.

    There are several more things that supports the theory that sh e lived her
    whole life with her Porter grandparents. Samuel Porter left he r a double
    share of his estate, even bigger than some of his daughters, an d he left her
    siblings one share to divide among them. Also, Samuel Porter, f rom at least
    1820, lived very close to William L. Crawford. She probably gre w up as a
    neighbor to her future husband, William A.

    Aah...we could make a movie of it!!! I just finished reading "An gela's Ashes".

    I am going to pull out all of that stuff you sent me, and try t o refresh my
    memory about all of it. I think you Aunt has left us some goo d clues!

    From his great-great- great granddaughter - Bobby Dobbins Title

    "Robert B. Dobbins was ordained as a Presbyterian Misister in So uth Carolina, although it appears he went to college in Virginia . His ordination and licensing papers were from North Carolin a and are dated 1803 and 1804. After he was licensed, he marrie d Catherine Alexander and they went on horseback to Brown County , Ohio, and settled there, where most of their kids were born . Robert rode circuit and established many churches there unti l 1834, when he and the whole family packed up and went to Fulto n County, IL, where he again founded many churches. He was als o involved in the Underground Railroad. He and his brother Joh n are the only of James and Elizabeth's kids that went north . The rest all stayed in the south. Robert's oldest son, Jame s Alexander Dobbins, is the only one of Robert's kids to leav e Illinois. In 1856, he and his whole family (including the mar ried kids) came out to Douglas County, Kansas, although a few ye ars after the death of his wife (also named Elizabeth), he move d back to Ohio and remarried. He was fairly old at the time. H is youngest son, James Sellers Dobbins (my great-grandpa) was bo rn in Kansas but moved to colorado in 1875 with his wife and kid s. My dad was born in Colorado and came to California in 1932 , following my mother whom he was courting."

    -----------------------------
    From History of Johnson County, Indiana, Chicago: Brant and Fuller , 1888

    Robert B. Dobbins, a venerable citizen of Pleasant Township, wa s born in
    Pendleton County, S.C. November 2, 1805. He is the son of Joh n and Jane
    (Johnson) Dobbins. H is father was the son of James and Elizabet h
    (Stephenson) Dobbins, who emigrated to South Carolina from Virgi nia. His
    mother was the daughter of Francis and Margaret (Sawright) Johns on; the
    latter of whom was a native of Ireland. In 1818, the parents o f our subject
    emigrated from Pendleton County, S.C. to Clermont County, Ohio , but a year
    later, or in March, 1819, they came to the State of Indiana an d settled in
    Campbell Township, Jennings County. His father died there Apri l 12, 1827.
    His mother came to Johnson County in about 1832, and spent the r est of her
    life in Clark Township; she died in April 1836. Our subject spe nt his youth
    in Jennings County on a farm. In his early manhood he took up t he vocation
    of a farmer for himself, and continued it through life. In 183 4, he came to
    Johnson County and located on the farm he now occupies, where h e has resided
    continuously for fifty-four years. His farm contains 197-1/8 ac res of
    well-improved land. Mr. Dobbins was married in Ripley County, t his state,
    October 28, 1928, to Harriet L. Hughey, who was born in Buncom County, N.C.
    November 29, 1804, and was the daughter of Joseph and Jane (Bran k) Hughey,
    the former of whom was born in North Carolina. The marriage o f Mr. & Mrs.
    Dobbins resulted in the birth of five children: John M., burn Fe bruary 17,
    1830, deceased; Joseph H., September 18, 1832, deceased; Samue l J. November
    16, 1835, deceased; Mary J. July 25, 1842, and Martha H., Septem ber 24, 1848,
    deceased. The wife of Mr. Dobbins died April 15, 1885. She wa s a devout
    member of the Presbyterian Church. Mr. Dobbins is also a membe r of the same
    church. In politics, he is an ardent republican. He cast his f irst
    presidential vote for Gen. Jackson in 1828. Mr. Dobbins has le d an
    industrious life, and he is now permitted to spend his declinin g years in
    comfort and happiness. He has not spent more than half a centur y in this
    county, and although in the eighty-third year of his age, he i s still in the
    enjoyment of good health. The county has no pioneer that is mor e highly

    From "History and Families
    Tishomingo County Mississippi"

    Peter Calvin Patterson

    Peter Calvin Patterson , the fifth child of Peter N. and Elizabe th Bates Patterson was born in Franklin County, Alabama, July 25 , 1848. On December 10, 1872, he married Lydia Frances (Fanny) P owell, born July 23, 1854, to May 25, 19 10.

    Peter Calvin was a farmer, had his own blacksmith shop, kept hi s tools in shape, made hoe and axe handles, loved working in woo d and made some furniture. A devout Christian, he invariably sai d grace before meals and held devotional services each night a t bedtime. He was a quiet, soft spoken, good natured man.

    Lydia Frances was also good natured, jolly and fun loving. She w as an only child of Matthew and Mary Carlin Bonds Powell; thoug h she had another daughter, Naomi, by a former marriage to T. R . Johnson. Naomi was only three years old when her father died . Mary Carlin had only the two children, but the two bore her 3 0 grandchildren.

    Peter Calvin and Lydia Frances lived on at the Powell place afte r her parents died. Later they sold the Powell place and bough t a farm a few miles away on Little Bear Creek, which was probab ly a mistake for soon a dispute arose with Naomi's son over th e property line. They drove nails in the Patterson's wooden was h tubs kept down at the springs where the family laundry was don e. They also threw dead animals and other offensive things in th e spring, which was the sole source of water for family use.
