702 Contrary to what is stated in some family trees, the baptismal records for Evan’s children are found in Llangeitho, Cardiganshire, Wales. Llangeitho was in the Tregaron area, where Evan and his wife, Elizabeth Walters, both died in their nineties.

The following is the closest match I found on FreeREG for Evan’s possible baptism:

County: Carmarthenshire
Place: Llanllwni
Church: St. Luke
Register type: Parish Register
Baptism date: December 14, 1771
Forename: Evan
Sex: Male
Father’s surname: Evans

Llanllwni was about 20 miles from Llangeitho, Cardiganshire, Wales.

There are several errors being made in identifying this Evan Evans:

1. The mother of his children was NOT Elizabeth Morgan. That name belongs to a different couple who did not marry until 1831.

2. The marriage record that fits him in Llangeitho is for an Elizabeth Walter. She was widowed when Evan died. He did not have a second wife.

3. His children were baptized in Llangeitho, not in Llansantffraed, Radnorshire. Radnorshire was more than 50 miles from Llangeitho. The marriage of a different Evan Evans and Elizabeth Morgan took place in Llansanffraid, Cardiganshire, Wales.

4. He was not the Evan Evans who died in December 1866. That Evan was listed as having no living kin except his brother Daniel. Our Evan still had a wife and at least one daughter living in 1866. He died in Tregaron between January and March 1866, before the December death of another Evan Evans in a town about 25 miles from where our Evan lived. The latter death is associated with an administration record for another Evan Evans.

Also, if Daniel had been our Evan’s executor, he would have been in his late eighties or nineties. This does not seem likely to me.

706 Count Thomas Arundel-Howard had three children by his first wife and six by his second. He spent much of his early childhood on the continent of Europe, mostly in Germany.

At a young age, he volunteered to join the Imperial Hungarian Army in its campaign against the Turks, reportedly on the recommendation of Queen Elizabeth herself. For his gallantry in those wars, he earned the name “The Valiant.”

At the Battle of Gran in Hungary in 1595, he captured a standard from the Turks with his own hands. In recognition of this act, Emperor Rudolph II issued a decree dated December 14, 1595, naming him a Count of the Holy Roman Empire.

Rudolph conferred the “honor upon you Thomas and all and every one of your children, heirs, and legitimate descendants of both sexes already born or that ever hereafter shall be.”

In 1605, Thomas received the title of First Baron Arundel of Wardour. 
ARUNDEL-HOWARD, Thomas * (I6888)
 
707 Cutliffe Harman was a Revolutionary War soldier. (C-205) According to A Family History of Watauga Co., he and his wife, Susan, were the first Harmans in Watauga County, North Carolina. They came from Rowan County (now Randolph County) in 1791 and bought 22 acres in Cove Creek from James Gwynn. Elder descendants believed that Cutliffe’s mother was a Wiley.

Cutliffe, Susan, and their children supposedly lived in a natural rock cave called Shupe’s Rockhouse, at the mouth of Phillips Branch, until their house was built. Cutliffe was employed by Daniel Boone to help transport goods and purchase Indian lands. (C-1845)

Susan died several years before her husband, who lived to the age of 90. She, Cutliffe, and his second wife, Elizabeth, are all buried at the Cutliffe Harman homeplace in Cove Creek. (C-695, 698)

According to some sources I have seen, Cutliffe and his brother’s family left the Uwharrie River area of North Carolina in the late 1790s and moved to Shelby County, Kentucky. I have also seen a death date of 1794 for Cutliffe, rather than a date after 1800, and a wife named Maybella Davis instead. These accounts conflict with the information given above.

709 Cyrus is listed as a book keeper in the 1850 CT census for New Haven City, CT. He had a wife named Sarah, age 22 and no children at the time. (F-455) BUNNELL, Cyrus Brooks (I11043)
 
710 Daisy died sometime between 1947 and 1955 from directory information for Middletown, Ohio. I have seen her gravesite at Woodside Cemetery buried next to her husband. MILES, Daisy G. (I7356)
 
711 Daniel and Hannah's nine children were: Andrew, Jonas, Mary, Eva, Susannah, Daniel, Nancy, Michael, and David. There is also a Jacob Hoover, age 18 and Federick Hoover, age 16 that were the heirs to Daniel Hoover, of South Carolina in Montgomery County records. (C-2172, 2320) HOOVER, Daniel (I7584)
 
712 Daniel and Sarah are listed with one child, Daniel, on March 31, 1688, in Guilford, Connecticut. When Daniel and Concurans married, Daniel was from Killingworth, and their marriage was recorded in Guilford. Daniel and Concurance Bartlet are listed with a son, Ebenezer, who was born in Killingworth on February 12, 1702. (F-307) BARTLET, Daniel (I12738)
 
713 Daniel came to America with his uncle Edward aboard the Elizabeth and Ann in April 1635, when he was only 13 years old. They settled in Dorchester. (F-96)

In 1675, he was likely the Daniel Preston who was bequeathed one-eighth of the ketch Speedwell by his uncle Christopher Gibson in his will. Although Christopher did not state his relationship to Daniel in the will, he appears to have left his estate only to relatives, identifying other beneficiaries as cousins, a sister, and a brother. No wife or children were mentioned. 
PRESTON, Daniel (I11361)
 
714 Daniel died of cancer at a young age. (F-600) LEENDERS, Daniel Matthew (I96)
 
715 Daniel had 9 children, some of whom moved to Texas along with their father after the 1830 census when they still lived where they married in Alabama. Daniel apparently outlived his wife as he is in the 1870 census for Nacogdoches, Texasg with his son Daniel F. His wife was last seen in the 1860 census for that county. (C-1959, EL) COATS, Daniel Polignac (I7173)
 
716 Daniel is listed as a younger brother of William. They had 7 sisters. (C-2051) He supposedly moved to Mississippi in the 1830s. COATS, Daniel B. (I7628)
 
717 Daniel L. Leahy ran a wholesale cigar business at the southeast corner of 8th and Sansom Streets in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1930. In a newsletter dated October 7, 1930, which he apparently published, he described the relocation of his infant daughter’s remains and identified family members buried near her. (F-480)

Moved remains of our baby Marie Isabel Leahy from New Cathedral Cemetery (Second and Erie Ave.) to Old Cathedral Cemetery (48 Lancaster Ave.). Placed her in the grave with her mother (Bella Leahy).

Also in this grave is the body of Bella’s mother. There in the one grave are Grandma McGowan, Mrs. Daniel L. Leahy (Bella), and Bella’s baby Marie Isabel Leahy (aged 2 years old—died April 14, 1896).

This grave is now full, except perhaps a baby’s body could go in it. It is on the front row, extreme left by the rail, when you stand facing the front of the lot.

The grave in New Cathedral, from which our baby was moved, is now empty. It is on the front row, extreme left when facing the lot.

Other graves in the lot on the front row contain my mother, Henrietta Leahy; father, Frank A. Leahy, Sr.; and Mrs. J. Herbert Ashley (Jenne Leahy), my sister.

718 Daniel was in the 1785 York Co., PA tax lists. He left a will that was probated in 1818 in York Co., Pennsylvania. (CL-526) UTZ, Daniel (I7769)
 
719 Daniel's DNA matches that of descendants of Pollard Coats of SC/MS and that of a Gabriel Coats of SC/North Carolina. Daniel moved onto Georgia and then Benton District, Alabama. He eventually settled in Titus Co., TX in 1860. It is Robbidry's theory that Daniel is a son of Joseph Jr. Coats. COATS, Daniel David (His name has been interpeted as both in 1st hand records.) (I5238)
 
720 Daniel’s birth record in his or his wife’s Bible reads: “Daniel Coate was born the 29th of october at 8 o’Clock in the morning on the first day of the week in the year of our Lord 1739.”

Daniel appears on the 1773 tax list for Burlington, New Jersey.

His estate papers, provided by Dorothy Wiland, are transcribed below:

“1811. Filed an estate division: found on LDS microfilm 848867, Division of Land, Burlington, 1798–1828. Recorded 6 November 1811.

Joseph W. McCormick

Whereas Daniel Coate, late of the township of Evesham and County of Burlington, deceased, in his lifetime and at the time of his death, by force and virtue of sundry conveyances and (assurances?) in the (law?) to him duly made and authenticated, became seized of and in two hundred and fifty-five acres of land situate in the township of Northampton and County aforesaid, as by a late survey of the same recorded in the Surveyor General’s office, in the city of Burlington, in Lib. AA, p. 220, will appear; and being so thereof seized, departed his natural life intestate.

Since the alteration of the law directing the descent of real estate (__?) the twenty-fourth day of May, one thousand seven hundred and eight (smeared page makes it read eighty), in consequence, all his said land and real estate descended to and vested in Michael Coate, Asahel Coate, Sarah Page, wife of Thomas Page junior, late Sarah Coate, John Coate, and Samuel Coate, only children and heirs at law of the said Daniel Coate.

And the said Thomas Page and Sarah, his wife, being so seized of one equal undivided ninth part of all and singular the land aforesaid, sold and conveyed the same in fee to the said Asahel Coate, as by their deed dated the _____ day of _____, one thousand eight hundred and three, as by reference to the same will appear.

And the said John Coate, being of one equal undivided two ninths of all and singular the lands aforesaid, sold and conveyed the same unto the said Asahel Coate in fee by deed dated the _____ day of _____ in the year last aforesaid, as by reference to the same will appear.

And whereas the said Michael Coate and Samuel Coate, each of them holding two ninths of the land aforesaid, and the said Asahel Coate, in his own right and by virtue of the conveyances aforesaid, holdeth five ninths of the premises aforesaid, and holding the same undivided as tenants in common, and being willing and desirous that a full, fair, and complete division of all and singular the lands aforesaid should be made between them, and to prevent all causes of strife and litigation, as well as to perpetuate amity and friendship between them, have and by these presents do nominate, constitute, and appoint (Nathaniel?) Moore and Job Jones of the said County of Burlington commissioners to divide the same between them agreeably to the directions of the aforesaid recited act.

And the division being so made and authenticated under the hands and seals of the said Commissioners shall be binding and conclusive on them, their heirs and assigns respectively therein.

In witness whereof the said Michael Coate, Asahel Coate, and Samuel Coate hath hereunto set their hands and seals the thirtieth day of May in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred four. (1804)”

Following this paper is another that repeats almost exactly the same information, with the addition of a physical description of the property. It appears that both papers were filed together in 1811.

724 David and his wife were Quakers, as were his parents. His property was valued at $4,000 in 1850. He was a farmer and merchant by trade. (C-63, 1001)

There is a David M. Coate who appears in the 1856 deed records for Union Township, Miami County, Ohio. Hinshaw lists his death date as January 26, 1852, in Union Township, Miami County, Ohio. However, this date does not fit the information above and also contradicts the following account in The Genealogical and Biographical Record of Miami County, Ohio, Part II (1900).

According to that source, David cultivated land he purchased in Miami County in 1843 until 1865. At that time, he moved to Kokomo, Indiana, but returned to Miami County after an unspecified interval. He then owned a store until 1872. The account does not give his death date.

It is entirely possible that he is one of the men named David Coate who appear in the 1850 and 1880 census records for Union Township, Miami County, Ohio. This remains to be checked.

From my point of view, there were likely two men named David M. Coate whose records are being confused. If this David was a co-commissioner of Union Township, Miami County, Ohio, then a photograph of him and his wife appears in the Illustrated Historical Atlas of Miami County, Ohio (1875). (C-95, 1025, 1927, 2113E) 
COATE, David Marmaduke (I10543)
 
725 David and Martha are the only couple named Rees whom I have found in Abergavenny, Monmouthshire, Wales, who had a son named Charles within the correct time frame. They lived on Mill Street in Abergavenny, which is also the street listed for their son Charles in his marriage record.

Neither David nor his second wife, Jane, appears to have been buried in Abergavenny, Wales. It is possible that they moved to America after his second marriage. 
REES, David Phillips * (I10109)
 
726 David emigrated from Little Cove, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, to Madison Township, Montgomery County, Ohio, in the spring of 1810.

After David John died in November 1812, his sons Joseph and Jacob John were appointed administrators of his estate on January 5, 1814. Enoch Bowen and Benjamin Bowen provided sureties for the administration.

In the 1815 guardianship records (No. 204, p. 25), David John’s heirs under the age of 21 were listed as Powell, age 20; Bowan, age 18; Mary, age 16; Samuel, age 14; Anna, age 12; Daniel, age 10; Sally, age 8; and Eleanor, age 5. (C-2317, 2320) 
JOHN, David Davis * (I8279)
 
727 David Jenkins is probably the David who was a chairmaker and removed to Ohio from Newberry, SC in 1805 with his one time apprenctice, Elisha Jones, and both families. (C-296) JENKINS, David (I8249)
 
728 David Phillips’s death is not recorded in the Gallia County, Ohio, records I have examined. The last record I have found for him in that county so far is the 1860 census.

He appears in the 1870 census for Meigs County, Ohio, which adjoins Gallia County. He was listed as age 50, a coal miner, born in Wales. His wife, Elizabeth, was age 45 and was also born in Wales. Their children living with them were William, age 23, a coal miner; Mary, age 25; Thomas, age 18, a coal miner; Elizabeth, age 14, attending school; and Allice, age 12, attending school. All the children were born in Ohio.

A couple of their ages differ slightly from the Bible records, suggesting that the person who provided the census information may not have kept track of their exact ages. However, all the names and places of birth match.

By the 1880 census, David and his family had moved to Jackson County, Ohio. He was still employed as a coal miner. His name has been transcribed as David D. Phillips in that census record.

733 Deed Book 6, p. 242 — Dated October 18, 1774

Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.) and his second wife, Frances (?), of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, sold 150 acres to their son-in-law, George Calhoun. The land was located on the south side of Sugar Creek, adjoining Robert Wilson’s land.

Signed: Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.) and his wife, Frances (her mark).
Witnesses: Robert Irwin and David Weeks.

This is believed to be one of the last deeds executed by Captain Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.) after his marriage to Frances Russell (Rodgers), about 1774, and before his departure from Mecklenburg County for approximately 900 acres granted to him in the Western District of North Carolina, in what is now Sumner County, Tennessee.

There were several other land transactions involving Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.) before he left Mecklenburg County about 1783. Refer to the papers in the Sumner County, Tennessee, archives. He appears in the records there in 1784, along with his brother, Major David Wilson. Both had come to the Western District, in what is now Middle Tennessee, to claim their land grants.

Deed Book 15, p. 369

Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.), of Oglethorpe County, Georgia, executor of Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.), deceased, sold 70 acres on Sugar Creek, bordering Robert Wilson, Isaac Wilson, and land formerly owned by Benjamin Thomas.

Signed: Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.).
Witnesses: Aaron Wilson and John Osborn.
Proved: April 1797 court session.

The person executing this deed was evidently Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.), disposing of land left to him by his father before the elder Zaccheus left Mecklenburg County for Middle Tennessee. The elder Zaccheus’s will was proved on June 3, 1796, although this does not necessarily establish his date of death.

The records have contributed to confusion about when and where the elder Zaccheus died, particularly because of references to Oglethorpe County, Georgia. The death record reportedly places his death on Indian land in Oglethorpe County, rather than on land owned by the United States or the state.

Probate Record — Oglethorpe County, January 1808

Account of the estate of Zaccheus Wilson, deceased:

Joseph and William Wilson, as legatees.
Balance due James Wilson (son).
Balance due Isaac Wilson (son).
Balance due George Calhoun (son-in-law).
Balance due Charles Calhoun (grandson).

Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.), executor. Inventory recorded June 30 and 23 by Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.).

A sum was paid to one legatee, James Wilson, in 1802.

Information concerning the estate of Captain Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.), deceased:
Oglethorpe County, Georgia, Loose Probate Papers, Annual Returns, 1795–1805.

The above-transcribed will and documents concerning David Russell (Sr.) refer to his daughter, Mary Russell. Other documents also establish connections between the Russell and Wilson families. David Russell named his grandson William Wilson, son of his son-in-law Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.), in his will.

In his will, filed in March 1797, David Russell referred to William Wilson, who had purchased 187 acres from him. William was David Russell’s own grandson, the son of Mary Russell Wilson and Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.), rather than a son of Zaccheus Wilson (Sr.), as I and others had initially thought.

Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.) can therefore be identified as one of the executors of David Russell’s will in the document dated March 27, 1802, in Mecklenburg County.

Zaccheus Wilson (Jr.) apparently lost his wife, Mary Russell Wilson, within a year of her father’s death, around 1803. When Zaccheus returned to Sumner County about 1804–1805, he married Nancy Long (White), the widow of John White (Jr.), probably in Bedford County.

Zaccheus and his wife, Mary Russell Wilson, appear in the 1800 census records with their son David Wilson, born in 1780 and listed in the 10–16 age category. David later married Jinny (Jean) Carothers on May 9, 1804, a connection that is relevant to this family’s history.

746 DNA evidence has established that this Thomas Cornell was related to Sgt. William Cornell of Connecticut.

Thomas Jr. was married twice. He had four children by his first wife and three by his second, for a total of four sons and three daughters. Their names were Thomas, Edward, Stephen, John, Innocent, and two daughters whose names are unknown.

In 1673, he was tried in Rhode Island for the murder of his mother. She had died in a fire, but rather than accepting her death as accidental, the court found her son guilty of murder. He was sentenced to be hanged.

One of his descendants helped found Cornell University.
