Deacon Nathan Cady - Battle of Bunker Hill

tilstra — 30 Aug 2008 10:30:50 GMT

I am looking for information on Deacon Nathan Cady b. 15 Oct 1717 at Pomfret, CT m. Rachel Cady 20-21 Oct 1742 at Brooklyn, CT d. 17 Nov 1789 buried in the South Cemetery at Brooklyn, CT.

Specifically I am interested in his Revolutionary War service. The only clue I have is a note I found on a personal website that is no longer in operation. It says:

The women of Pomfret equipped the 81 soldiers that went to Bunker Hill in 1775. Among them was Nathan (Cady). He was one of the 81 men in the original Co. on Washington's honor roll of volunteers in 1775.

Does anyone know exactly what this "roll" is that is referred to here? Has it been published somewhere that I could get access to?

My line to Nathan is:

Mary Hollingsworth Tilstra 1950-
Erle Howard Hollingsworth 1917-1993
Mildred Lyon Hollingsworth 1894-1989
Edward Merrill Lyon 1866-1958
Howard W Lyon 1831-1909
Amasa Lyon 1803-1879
Thirza Pooler Lyon 1772-1843
Hannah Cady Pooler 1743-1818
Deacon Nathan Cady

I am seeking to add Nathan Cady as a DAR Ancestor. He is not currently a recognized patriot so I have to prove his revolutionary war service. There are some secondary sources that give a Nathan Cady credit for service from Jun 10 to Dec 31, 1777 in Captain Bacon's Company of the 4th Regiment Connecticut Line. However, the original source records that I have been able to find at the archives (through footnote) seem to indicate that this service is actually that of a Nahum Cady who lived in the same area.

Obituary for George A. Thomas, died 1863, born 1833 Voluntown, Connecticut

barbmag1 — 5 Aug 2008 2:38:46 GMT

I need help finding a community newspaper or gazette where a death notice, obituary, funeral service or obsequies, memorial or burial service may have been reported. The time will be about April or May, 1863. The place for the funeral or memorial service may have been at Hopkinton, Washington County, Rhode Island, or Westerly, Washington County, Rhode Island. The burial service would have been at River Bend Cemetery, Westerly, Rhode Island. The person of interest is Private George A. Thomas, a Union soldier in the US Civil War serving with Company A, Seventh Regiment, Rhode Island Volunteers. Private George A. Thomas died on active duty April 14, 1863 in an Army hospital, Baltimore, Maryland. His body was transported “home” most likely to Hopkinton, Rhode Island where his wife, Lucy Kenyon, and two children resided. His body was buried in River Bend Cemetery, Westerly, Rhode Island. Any assistance will be appreciated.

Windham County change

maxinebuckman65 — 25 Jun 2008 12:32:41 GMT

I've been trying to find out who Phebe BUCK m Joseph SKINNER had as parent's and have been looking in Tolland County records. Now I understand Windham County changed (Hebron) into Tolland at some point. Perhaps Phebe's parents were from Windham. Another name that comes up in the marriage is Phebe PALMERTER. This in found in Marriages Prior to 1800 for the Second Congregational Church in Gilead. Time period would be from the 1730s to 1790s. So, was Hebron, at one time in Windham County?

I am trying to locate descendants of David Fuller, b. 1754 in Willington, CT, and Eunice Main, born late 1750's in Windham Co., CT to Andrew Main and Fear Holmes. I know their children's names: Molly (b. 8/10/1785), David Fuller (b. 7/16/1787), Davis (b. 4/17/1789), Thankful (b. 1/30/1791), Main Fuller (b. 7/7/1793), Chester (b. 11/6/1798), Daniel (b. 3/30/1798), and Eunice (b. 4/22/1800), all born in Willington. I am interested in finding out who their youngest son, Daniel Fuller, born 3/30/1798 in Willington CT, married. ("My" Daniel Fuller married Mary "Polly" Rasey/Razey of Plattsburgh, NY) According to some Main family descendants, that Daniel Fuller and my g-g-g-grandfather Daniel Fuller are the same person, which is why some of their Main ancestors are buried in Buck Creek Cemetery, Delaware Co., Iowa in the same area as Daniel Fuller. David Fuller's sister Mary Fuller married Eunice Main's brother Joshua Main, but didn't live long.
The David Fuller listed was the son of David Fuller and Mary Antizell, and was descended from Ensign/Lt Thomas Fuller of Dedham, Mass and Hannah Flower.

I have Buck ancestors who sold the farm in Pomfret and moved to Boston to start a small business.

Does anyone know the most likely route they would have travelled to Boston in 1823 by horse and wagon? What towns would they have gone through?

I suspect some family members died on the way, as I have never found evidence of their deaths.

I am looking for living relatives of the following people from Willimantic, Connecticut.

My father recently passed away, and in cleaning out his house, we came across an old family bible, books, pictures, etc. from this BASS family. I have taken the names from the family bible. I would love to return these items to their rightful owners, but have had no luck contacting them.

INTERNATIONAL MARRIAGE RECORDS

Leslie85223 — 11 Mar 2008 2:25:41 GMT

Could someone help to shed some light on something that is unclear to me? I have ancestors whose marriage is recorded in the list of International Marriages that took place in 1776 in Windham, CT. Does that mean one of the parties was not a US citizen at the time they were married?

My ancestor, James Butts b. 1748 CT was first married to Abigail Utley on 2/15/1770 in Windham, CT. Abigail died in 1774. That marriage was not recorded as an International marriage. Then, in 1776, I find James married Elizabeth Hebbard who was born in 1750 but it did not say where she was born. I've been unable to find any further information regarding Elizabeth other than that she gave birth to 5 chilldren from 1777 - 1783. James & children are later found living in Otsego Co, NY but no further information is known about Elizabeth.

CT has excellent records however I've been unable to locate more data regarding Elizabeth Hebbard Butts.

If you can help me to understand this situation better, I'd be most appreciative.

Orrin Holt: b abt 1800

wolfowl — 10 Jun 2007 7:12:57 GMT

I am looking for information on the Holt family who lived in Ashford, Windham, CT. during the late 1700s and early 1800s. I am looking specifically for info on Orrin Holt who according to Canadian census was born in 1802-04. I am unsure as to how long he lived in Ashford or for that matter CT since he married my 4x-grandmother Lauretta in 1831 at Woodhouse, Norfolk Co, Ontario Canada. His obit states that he was born in Ashford CT and his father's name is Smith Holt and his grandfather's name is Asa Holt. Orrin died at Fairfield Plains, Brant Co., ON on 12 Oct 1887. I am attempting to verify the son-father link between Orrin and Smith Holt so that I can move forward with tracing the rest on my grandmother's family tree.

Any help in verifying this connection will be greatly appreciated.

Genealogy of Windham Co. Families

Rick Duffy — 8 Apr 1999 12:00:00 GMT

Alice E. Keach was daughter of William A. Keach and Fannie B. Smith and was married to William A. Slater

M_MacKeachan — 29 Jan 2008 6:35:03 GMT

I have an Alice E Keach (found with her Keach family in the 1900 US Federal Census, CT, Windham, Brooklyn - District 510) who married William A. Slater (found with her Slater family in the US Federal Census - CT, Windham, Killingly):

William A. Slater, 23, 1st marriage - married 5 years, born in CT
Alice E. Slater, 22, 1st marriage - married 5 years, born in CT

Beatrice M. Slater, 2, born in CT

I could not find Alice or William Slater in the 1920 US Federal Census, but I did find them in the 1921 and the 1923 Danielson (Connecticut) Directories. However, in the 1928 Danielson (CT) Directory there is only mention of William A. Slater, "carpenter and mason" and not Alice E.

I found Alice E. Slater in the 1930 US Federal Census as an inmate at the Norwich State Hospital. She is listed as being 42 at that time.

I would greatly appreciate any info about when exactly and why Alice E. Keach Slater went into the Norwich Hospital....or any other information about Alice E. Keach Slater.

Thank you,

Who to contact? Chester, Neff & Maine familes

Gyan Penrose-Kafka — 4 Sep 2004 11:54:07 GMT

I have done some research on my ancesters and have come to a road block. My gr. gr. gr. grandfather, Elisha Chester, raised his family in or around Chaplin, CT. He was born about 1788 in Windham and died 9 Apr 1867 in (I presume) Ashford. He's buried in South Cemetery at Ashford. His wife was Hannah Neff, born abt. 1790 in Windham nand died 30/Dec/1878 in (I presume) Ashford. She's also buried in South Cemetery. I have found references to two sons, my gr. gr. Grandfather, Horrace and a Francis D (listed as next of kin).

Also, my gr. grandmother (AnnaBell Maine) seems to have lived with her mother and grandparents but her father was not listed in any of the census data I could find, and my apparently, from what I've heard, her mother died and she was sent to live with relatives elsewhere, I think in RI. However, because she was born in 1879 and she was married before 1900, I have no census records to place her.

So, that's where the trails stops. I don't know what to do. I will be spending a few days in the Chaplin area in October and would like to see if I can track down any more information.

Who should I contact at this point? What should I do?

Wood/Lyon Family

kshedlowski — 12 Dec 2007 2:21:02 GMT

I am seeking the parents of Stephen Wood, born Dec 28, 1794, who married Dille (Delia) Chapman, born Nov 16, 1798. Married in Ashford, CT, on Apr 11, 1824 by Edward Keyes. The supposed mother of Stephen Wood was Louisa Lyon (could be wrong) and the father supposedly came from New Hampshire (also could be wrong). I have observed the census from 1830 for Ashford, and Stephen is living near the Lyon family parented by Nathan Lyon and Patience Badger. His mother would have to be born around 1774 or prior to be 20 when he was born. Any help you can give to me, or clues would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Karlyn Shedlowski, 3rd gr. grand daughter of Stephen Wood.

I have asked Woodstock several time and they say they don't have it either. Please tell me where else I should go????
Thanks
