This genealogy has become the”Holy Grail” for many Britton family historians with roots in the Northeast states and more specifically Long Island and Staten Island. Descendents moved to New Jersey, Pennsylvania, greater New York State and later to Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. As lands opened for settlement in the west and sometimes in the south, descendents went there and settled the lands.

But, we are talking about only one genetic line of Brittons emanating from one man named Richard Britton who lived in the 1500s in England. There were many other men with the Britton surnames who also immigrated to America who were totally unrelated to Richard Britton. The multitudes of their descendents simultaneously populated the lands. They often crossed each others genealogical pathways, They came from many distinctively different genetic lines and over time became mixed into the general populations of towns and cities. Today the US population is so mixed and family documentation so often lacking that determining one’s family line can seem impossible.

YDNA testing can help sort these many different lines into genetically similar family groups.

That’s why YDNA testing and membership in the Britton DNA Project is so important. The project now encompasses ten genetically distinct family groups. Testing reveals the family group to which a persons belongs or otherwise identifies a new, previously unknown line.

Because the Britton Project includes members who have been tested and have documented their lines back to Richard Britton, his essential haplotype or genetic signature is known. It is because of this that future members can be assigned to a family group with common ancestors.

Anyone with family histories that descent from any of the men in the Table of Contents should strongly consider DNA testing to lock in their family history to this old American family.

From: "Pamela J. Sears" <pjsears@stratos.net> Subject: Early Brittain settlers, father and siblings (from Sally Shreeve); Part I Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2005 20:20:04 -0500 Dear List, Sally Shreeve sent this to the list early this morning, but I have not found it in the archives, nor did it arrive in my Digest. My apologies if this is a duplicate, but I'm forwarding it just in case. I think it was too lengthy for the RootsWeb server.

Regards, Pam Sears (and, thanks again, Sally) Pamela asked me if I would share some information on the early Brittains and their family. I am including James E. Brittain's perspective on history at that time. James E. Brittain was a lawyer in Wayne, Nebraska, who wrote "Brittain Genealogy" in 1939. For those with Brittain ancestors, I have a lot of information on some of the descending families.

My great-grandmother was a Brittain; my great-grandfather a Britton.

Sally Shreeve 1. Richard Britton was born about 1585 in of Batcombe, Somersetshire, England. He died before 6 Aug 1678/1680 in Bisley, Gloucestershire, England.

HIS: "Britton or Brittain are the same name and we find them used interchangeably. In law they are idem sonans which means they sound the same and are equivalents for all intents and purposes. There are many other forms of the name but these are the most common. It is said this surname went into England from France as early as the year 1066 among the followers of William the Norman Conqueror.

Various forms of the name are found in medieval England...

At any rate the record is clear that the three brothers (William, Canieul, and Nathaniel) came to this county, possibly as early as 1650 and were first found on Long Island.

Queen Elizabeth died in 1603 and James I, the first of the Stuarts ascended to the throne.

Shakespeare wrote "Othello" and "King Lear" while James I was on the throne and Francis Bacon dedicated 'The Advancement of Learning' to him.

It was during his reign that the King James translation of the Bible was made. His son Charles was on the throne from 1625 to 1629. This period saw the Petition of Right, John Hampden, the Long Parliament (1640) and the civil war of the Roundheads against the Cavaliers, and Charles beheaded. These were stirring times in England. The brothers might have been forced to come to this country by any one of the serious social upheavals and dislocations that were taking place."

She died in 1709 in Staten Island, Richmond, New York, United States.

Nathaniel Britton I arrived in New York, New York in 1660.

Notes for Nathaniel Britton I: There was a lot happening in Europe, England and European America during the 1600s and 1700s regarding religious intolerance, colonialism, civil wars, and wars between nations. The Americas became something of a safe haven for many, but the Europeans issues followed them to the Americas. New Netherland which had been established by the Dutch, wasn't settled only

by Dutchmen. It was also settled by colonists from England, France, Germany, African slaves, and it was the home for many Native Americans. The areas now named Manhattan and Brooklyn were melting pots from the earliest days. People spoke many languages and represented a variety of faiths. New Amsterdam, now New York City, was established as a center of commerce which brought together fur traders, fishermen, oystermen, tobacco farmers, shippers, traders and others.

The early Brittons who settled in the New Netherland in the area now known as Brooklyn and Staten Island, attended the Dutch Reformed Church, the official Dutch church which allowed people of other faiths to attend. Early Britton children were baptized there. After 1664 when the English took control of the New Netherland from the Dutch, the Brittons moved to Staten Island.

Eventually the Staten Island Brittons practiced Presbyterianism and became leaders and elders in the church. Also, it appears that the Brittons had an amicable relationship with the new English government. Despite the often repeated story that Nathaniel (1) Britton gave refuge to his father-in-law LT Nicholas Stillwell who in some way resisted the British takeover of Long Island, there were apparently no ill issues regarding Nathaniel's relationships with the British.

He must have been viewed in a positive light because in 1660 he was named as a Commissioner by New York Governor Lovelace to make a treaty with the local Raritan Indians to purchase Staten Island. And in 1667, New York Governor Andros signed a patent to Nathaniel Britton for 144 acres of land on Staten Island which further emphasized his good standing.

Again, I have extracted the facts from Elmer Garfield Van Name's "Britton Genealogy" as follows: -------------------------------- First American Generation -------------------------8

Judge Nathaniel Britton married Elizabeth Garretson, a neighbor from another prominent family line on Staten Island.

As seen below, there is much known about Judge Britton. He was a business and public service oriented man. He may have been something of an opportunist. With partners, he was successful in obtaining a 30-year patent for a ferry service from Staten Island. We don't know where the ferry was located or to which shore it went. There were many areas developing in nearby New Jersey such as Perth Amboy, Elizabeth, and Bayonne which would have benefited from a ferry service.

We also learn that Nathaniel Britton Jr was a religious man, and one of the island's earliest Presbyterians.

Judge Nathaniel Britton, Jr, provided for the future of his family which is apparent from his land transactions and his Last Will and Testament. Nathaniel Britton and Elizabeth Garretson had 14 children.

Wife Elizabeth, willed one third of his personal property Nathaniel (3), bc 1688; 1723 given 120 acres on the south side SI Richard. bc 1689; 1723 given 125 acres on the south side ot SI Nicholas. bc 1695; This may be Col.

Agreement between Nathaniel Britane and John Morgone and Araham Coole; all of Richmond County. Recites will of Nathaniel Britane seanier whose heirs have divided the estate. Abraham Cooleto have an equal portion with Richard Britane and Abigail Britane of all the wild Geads and Runes in the woods when John Morgone have had out the third parts.

[Britton Genealogy p. 6] On March 30, 1697 Nathaniel Britton Jr executor of the estate of Nathaniel Britton Sr obtained a receipt from Abraham Cole, Rebecca Cole, and Abigail Britton for legacies payable under the will dated November 30, 1683. The witnesses were John and Mary Corbett. [Britton Genealogy p. 6] Because there is no evidence that Nathaniel Britton Sr had disposed of his land at Dongan Hills patented to him in 1677, supposedly it passed to his children under the terms of his will; Nathaniel appareantly acquired his share (and may have bought the other shares). The deed of Thomas Stillwell dated March 3, 1703/04, for land (adjoining that of Nathaniel Britton) was witnessed by Nathaniel Brittain, Nicholas Britton and Vincent Fountain, and it was recorded for Nathaniel Britton on July 19, 1721 (Richmond County Deeds (NY) C:79) It seems safe to assume that nathaniel Britton thereby enlargedhis holdings of land in the immediate neighborhood. That Nathaniel was still living in the same locality at the time of his death, is shown by the devise of his farm to his sons. John and Samuel, inthis language: the "plantation whereon I now live & dwell situate in the South Precient of the County of Richmond above said lying between ye plantation of Col. Nicholas Britton and Vincent Fountain Jr" (On the plantation of Col. Nicholas Britton stood the Billiou-Stillwell dwelling) [Britton Genealogy p. 7] On May 13, 1729, Jaques Cortelyou transferred to Nathaniel Britton Sr, elder, and to Nathaniel Britton Jr, deacon, and others, a piece of land at Stony Brook upon which a meeting house had been erected, possibly around 1717 (Richmond County Deeds (NY) D:149). The deed contained a bond to assure the Dutch Congregation that they might also use the building.

Among the Dutch members were Jaques Cortelyou and Jacob Vanderbilt. The deed of 1729 is certain evidence, not only that both Nathaniel Sr and Jr were actually members of the Presbyterian Church in early days, but also that they held positionsof leadership; hence it seems reasonable to suppose that their offspring would follow in their footsteps. The church sttod in a little grove at a sharp bend in the Amboy Road midway between New Dorp and Oakwood, and many of the huge stones that once rested in its rude foundation remian on the hallowed ground today (1900). Nathaniel Britton, the former judge, had probably been an elder of the Presbyterian Church for some years, and would be honored in 1729 by continuance in office, even if his health was failing. The church deed being datedd May 13, 1729 was made 15

Generation 3 (con't) before Nathaniel signed his will on June 1, 1729. [Britton Genealogy p. 7] Nathaniel Britton was an assessor in 2698, and a surveyor of highways in 1699 and 1703; a Justice of the Courtof Sessions in 1712, 1714, 1715, 1719, 1720, 1721 and 1722. It was apparently he who appears in the census of 1706-1709; and it was probably he who served as a Lieutenant of Malitia in 1715 in the South Company, and he was called "Major" on Feb 28, 1721. [Britton Genealogy p. 7] Nathaniel Britton has been accepted by an heriditary society as a qualified ancestor by reason of military service. [Britton Genealogy p. 7] On March 7, 1703, Richard Hall, Esq., and Ann, his wife, of New Jersey, sold to Nathaniel Britton, yeoman, of Richmond County, 160 acres on the South side of Staten Island, which Hall had inherited. This deed was recorded Dec. 9, 1704 (Richmond County Deeds (NY) B:506). On April 25, 1710, Nathaniel Britton, yeoman, bought 62 acres of land and some meadow from John Roberts, and Anne, his wife, and John Crocheron Jr of Richmond County (Richmond County Deeds (NY) B:574). In 1712, Nathaniel Britton, with James Garrison, and others petitioned for a ferry franchise, which was granted them November 27, 1712 for a period of thirty years (Stillwell Genealogy 4:51), On December 15, 1714, Nathaniel Britton Esq., of Staten Island , sold to Peter Rezeau, 7 acres at Carl's Neck, Fresh Kills, adjoining Jacob Gariott, P. Gariott, and others. It was acknowledged on Jan 11, 1714/15, by Nathaniel Britton Esq., before Lambert Garrison, Judge. William Tillyer was one of the witnesses. (Richmond County Deeds (NY) B:596). On November 17, 1716, Abraham Titsworth and Margaret, his wife, sold to Nathaniel Britton Esq., 80 acres on the South side of Staten Island, adjoining Nathaniel's other land, being 1/3 of 240 acres which Titsworth had purchased. This deed was acknowledged before Abraham Cole, Justice, and was recorded February 28, 1720/21 for Major Nathaniel Britton (Richmond County Deeds (NY) C:71)On November 19, 1716, Abraham Titsworth and wife, sold to Nathaniel Britton, Esq., 160 acres being 2/3 of the 240 acres on the South side of Staten Island, west of the Great Pond.

The witnesses were Johannes Sweem, Syme Van Name and William Tillyer (Richmond County Deeds (NY) C:127) On October 12, 1723, Nathaniel Britton, yeoman, of Richmond County, in consideration of love and affection for his son, conveyed unto Nathaniel Britton, yeoman, of Richmond County, 120 acres on the south side of Staten Island, being the east 3/4 of land conveyed to grantor by Richard Hall and Ann, his wife, on March 7, 1703 (Richmond County Deeds (NY) C:335) On October 12, 1723, Nathaniel Britton, yeoman, of Richmond County, in consideration of love and affection for his son, conveyed unto Richard Britton, yoeman, 125 acres on the south side of Staten Island, reciting deeds to the grantor from Abraham Titsworth (blacksmith) and Margaret, his wife, dated November 17, 1716, and from Richard Hall, dated March 7, 1703 (Richmond County Deeds (NY) C:254) [Britton Genealogy p.

[Britton Geneaolgy p.8] WILL: Nathaniel Britton, Esq. of Richmond County, being dangerously ill, made his will on June 1, 1729, proved November 11, 1729 (New York Historical Society Collection (Wills 11:150) in which he said, "Whereas it hath pleased God to give unto me thirteen children which are all now living, that is to say, six sons and seven daughter, by name, Nathaniel, Richard, Nicholas, Abigail, Elizabeth, Alice Rebecca, John, Samuel, Mary, Sarah, Rachel and William"; the first four having been "already portioned out by me in my lifetime and fully provided for out of my estate;" and the fifth and sixth, " Elizabeth and Alice, having been in part portioned out by me in my lifetime," etc. ; and he gave to his wife, Elizabeth, one third of his personal property; devised to his son, William, one lot of 60 acres, plus salt meadow, at the head of the Fresh Kill purchased of James Dye, "on condition that he pay to my 16

The testator signed the will in the presence of three witnesses Lions (?) Stillwell, James Stillwell, and Daniel Sayre Jr. "Collections of the New York Historical Society for the year 1902.

Unrecorded wills - Page 150.

The deeds to sons, Nathaniel and Richard, are dated Oct. 12, 1723, which may give some hint concerning their ages. Accoridng to Nathaniel's birth date, his first child might have been born about 1688. This would further indicate that Elizabeth was not the mother of the early children.

(BRI HIS 019, p.15 and 16) NOTE: The first two children shown as children of Nathaniel and Elizabeth..namely Abigail and Abraham may belong to the first wife. (GER HIS 001) P. 6. The author even believes there is a possibility the first child that she had was John (named for her father).

She was born about 1730 in Staten Island, Richmond Co, New York, USA.

Notes for Eva (Maria) Lusk: I was browsing GenForum and then went to look at the Britton DNA project at the link below.

They now have confirmed Y-DNA from two lines going back to the Staten Island / Gravesend group (Nathaniel and William, sons of Richard Britton on England). It would be interesting to have you or other male-line Brittons take the Y-DNA test to see if we look to belong to this Staten Island group (which seems likely). They may even have money in a general fund to pay for it, though it isn’t that expensive and I think testing 37 to 67 markers would probably be adequate for determining cousinship.

If you haven’t seen it online, the wife of Richard Britten was identified in Readington Dutch Reformed Church records somewhere as Eva Lisk. I suspect she’s a daughter of James Lisk of Staten Island though she could be descended from a brother instead. But this suggests a Staten Island home and marriage for both Richard and Eva, followed by a move to New Jersey before 1764.

How are you doing nowadays? My medical software company was acquired by 3M in late 2006 and I have been a manager there since then, still working out of Silver Spring, Md. It’s a good job. I’m 58 now and hope to have another 8-10 years there (at least six to get my son through college). / Tom Gull Richard Britten II and Eva (Maria) Lusk had the following children: +60. i.

Locality notes: Jersey Twp, Steuben Co, NY is now Orange Twp, Schuyler Co, NY Tyrone Twp, Steuben Co, NY is now Tyrone Twp, Schuyler Co, NY From "Three Centuries of Brittens" census database, a John Britten was counted in the East Precinct of Somerset County, NJ, page 005 in 1784 and again on page 031 in 1786. In 1789, a John Britten was counted on page 001 in Hanover Twp, Morris Co, NJ. In 1794, a John Britten was counted on page 002 in Bernards Twp, Somerset Co, NJ, and also on page 002 in Hanover Twp, Morris Co, NJ. There also was a James Britten at these locations. In 1803, a John Britten was counted on page 006 in Bridgewater Twp, Somerset Co, NJ. Other names that show up at the same time frame include William, Richard and Abraham Britten.

Here is a summary of everything I know so far about the possible New Jersey connection: 1. From John Britten's 1818 deposition when applying for pension a. he enlisted (while) in New Jersey, March 1779 and again in 1782; it is doubtful he would have traveled from another state just to enlist; the records at that time indicate a push to fill up regiments at those time periods for summer campaigns. b. he said he enlisted in March 1779 in a 4th Virginia regiment in a company commanded by Cpt Kilpatrick; this may be true or it may have been a NJ regiment since they did campaign in Virginia; a Kirkpatrick is listed as a company commander in the 2d Jersey; either way, John left in January 1780, most likely during the winter encampment. c. he enlisted a 2d time early summer of 1782, again in NJ; enlisted in a company commanded

by Captain Barton (a William Barton is listed as a captain in the 2d Jersey); John claimed the regiment was commanded by a "Colonel Cummins" (this was likely a John N. Cummings who rose from lieutenant to Lieutenant Colonel in the 2d regiment, was a battalion commander, and likely commanded the regiment in some engagements before going to the 3rd regiment). d. the 2d Jersey was present at the surrender at Yorktown by Cornwallis, and was disbanded at Newburgh, NY in 1783 (this is consistent with John's claim of discharge at Newburgh at the end of the war).

2. from an internet site on the official lineage of rev war units I found the following: a. 4th Virginia regiment has credit for 3 New Jersey campaigns and was relieved from northern duty Dec 1779 (John left next month) and went south to Charleston; in all likelihood, John Britten did not want to travel or fight outside the immediate area; this would have been typical in the colonies at that time. b. 2d Jersey regiment fought in NJ and then went to Yorktown before travelling to Newburgh, NY and being disbanded in 1783; the war virtually ended with Cornwallis' surrendur at Yorktown in early 1783, but likely troops were sent north to "help" the British leave, especially around major cities and ports. Disbandment came in November 1783.

3. Steve McCowen is a "lookup resource" for Somerset Co (e-mail address is clanewen@worldnet.att.net); he provided me the following information from his references and sources: a. a property transfer dated March 31, 1767 between two men in Somerset lists Abraham 24

Richard Britton of Batcombe, Sommerset, England

Generation 6 (con't) Britten as one of the bordering property owners in Millstone (this location is synonymous with Hillsborough and Somerset Courthouse according to local history references); this Abraham is a possible father or brother to John and Hannah since they named their firstborn the same. b. several Lott men are listed on the July 1784 Hillsborough tax assessment. c. an April 1784 Somerset County Court general quarter session lists a John Brittain and Abraham Britton as grand jurors. d. an April 1785 session of the same court indicates a John Britton was granted a tavern license. e. from a 1790 "reconstructed census" of Somerset County, a John Britton/Britain is listed as a resident with 60 acres in Bernards township, and a Samuel Britton is listed as a householder in the Eastern Precinct.

4. Volume I of the Somerset County Historical Quarterly gives the following: a. a John Britten placed a claim for property losses during the war b. three Lott's made similar claims (Abraham of Vandike's Mill, Cornelius of Millstone, and Rem); note that this is the same group that was listed on the July 1784 Hillsborough tax assessment.

5. From "Documents Relating to the Revolutionary History of the State of New Jersey, Vol II 1778" - John N. Cumming is indicated as a captain in 2d regiment.

6. From "Official Register of the Officers and Men of New Jersey in the Revolutionary War" published in 1870 by the Office of the Adjutant General: a. 2d regiment served at Yorktown beginning Oct 19, 1781 and was present at surrender in early 1783. b. John N. Cumming is listed as Lieutenant colonel, 2d regiment, 1781-1783 c. William Barton is listed as captain. d.

A Hannah Lott shows up in Hopewell, NJ as daughter of Richard Lott who was b. abt 1723. b. Richard's parents are Peter Lott and Catharine (note similarity in John & Hannah's Peter Britten). c. her source indicates Hannah married a Col. John Wethrill (this could have been prior to or during the war and he might have died). -----------------------*An Abram Britten is shown purchasing land 11/1/1855 in Ionia Co (just east of me). This is a new one on me.

From "New Jersey Rateables, 1778-1780" for Monmouth County (NJ), Upper Freehold Township, May-June 1778, July 1780: Abraham Britton 135; 4h, 3c, 13p; 1s; ex (Brittain 2h, 6c, 4p) Richard Britton* hh; 1c (John Brittain 160; 3c; 1gm) According to Grace Watson (in 1972) she had "information" from her third cousin that John & Hannah Lott Britten were both natives of the State of New York. She believed they were from the family of Brittens (ons) in Richmond County, New York (now Staten Island). She indicated in her letter to Elizabeth that her mother had said our Brittens had land in the city of New York, because they had to sell it to the city.

It was purchased from Cyrus Cole & Hannah of Tyrone -of course he may have had a contract dated earlier. This was the same 1 acre they all signed off above.

John Britten's last encampment at Newburgh, NY during the Revolutionary War: On April, 1782 General Washington came to Newburgh, NY to what would be his final Headquarters at the Hasbrouck House. With the British Army still in New York City, he wanted the Northern Army close by in the event hostilities erupted again. New Windsor was chosen due to its proximity. Here the Continental Army would build its fourth and final winter cantonment.

In October 1782, the troops began to arrive and set up tents while they began building their huts. This Cantonment covered 1,600 acres and quartered 6,000-8,000 men, women and children from New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maryland. There were 700 huts for the soldiers and many other out buildings; guardhouses, blacksmiths shops, stables, kitchens and a hospital.

To:LTCdavid@aol.com (INTERNET:LTCdavid@aol.com), glenmcd@email.msn.com (INTERNET:glenmcd@email.msn.com) Glen wrote: I saw your home page and thought we may have a connection. My ggggrandmother was Newell Britton. The spelling of Britton is varied depending on the document. Newell was born Sep 9, 1796 in Montomery County, NY. She married Daniel K. Shaw May 22 1816 in Onondaga County, New York. She named her first born Abram Britton Shaw when he was born in Onondaga County, NY. Abram may be short for Abraham. He went by A. B. in all census records and only one deed in the Cayuga County court House lists him as Abram B. Shaw. His family and friends called him Britt Shaw. Anyway, this makes me suspect that Newell's father was Abram or Abraham Britton.

Tom: Newell's parents were Abraham Britton and Lena (Magdalena) Frederick, per christening records from Caughnawaga Protestant Dutch Reformed Church of Fonda, N.Y. I have gathered up a number of records on this family for you and am in the process of putting them into my database program. After I'm done, I'll send some reports on to you. Lena was 95% probably the daughter of Philip Frederick and wife Anna Sophia, also of Montgomery Co., N.Y. Newell is listed among Abraham's children in his 1809 will which went into probate shortly after he died in Charlestown, Montgomery Co., in 1824. Newell is also shown as Nuel, Niell, Nuwell. I wonder if this was an attempt at Noel or possibly Neeltje, a Dutch name. I don't see any Newell family connected with these people to date. Abraham Britton and Lena stayed in Montgomery Co. but disappeared from census records, possibly indicating they lived with one of their children. The son Abraham probably moved to Onondaga Co., and presumably Newell went with him and met her future husband there. I now believe that the Abraham and Margaret Britton in Onondaga Co. in land deeds and the 1820 census are not John Britten's son and daughter-in-law. Instead, I think they are Abraham Britton and Margaret van Patten, Abraham's son from Montgomery Co. John Britten's son Abraham is probably the Abraham Brittone in the 1820 census on the same page as John Britten in Steuben Co. 27

Oscar was born Dec 15, 1816 in Onondaga County...There is also an Oscar Britton in Onondaga County who was born before 1800 and probably the father of Oscar F. Britton. This Oscar Btitton bought land in Dewitt, Onondaga County from J. Britton in 1815.

Tom: what are your sources for the older Oscar Britton and this land deed, please? I can't find any mention of him in census indexes or whatever, and I don't have any land deed recorded re this person (I thought I checked all the land records in Syracuse). A DeWitt record may well be for our J. Britten...

Glen :Abraham Britton sold land in Cicero, Onondaga County in 1809.

Tom: maybe your guy's son. I always assumed this was a son of Philip Britton of Mass. and N.H. due to the 1820 census record where that Abraham Britton is on the same page as some of Philip's people. Again, I don't think I have this land record from anywhere. Have any more details than this on hand?

Glen: The deed books in Onondaga County have two Abraham Brittons. One married to Margaret and one married to Hannah.

Tom: Maybe the Hannah one is ours and the Margaret one yours. Or maybe there were three of them - one from Philip, one from Mont. Co., and one from John. The last one was born too late to own land before maybe 1812 and more probably 1817.

Glen: My best guess is that Newell and Oscar were brother and sister, children of Abraham.

Tom: Newell was Abraham (Jr)'s sister. Oscar was her nephew, probably.

Glen: There is an Abraham who lived in Montgomery County in 1810 with children the right age to be Newell and Oscar and he is not in Montgomery County any longer in 1820.

Tom: Abraham Jr. Glen: There are several Abraham Britton's who fought in the Rev war from New Jersey who would be the right age.

Tom: Again, Newell is definitely the daughter of Abraham Britton (Sr) and Lena Frederick. She's in his will and her christening record exists. This Abraham is listed as a DAR ancestor from NJ, though I haven't seen the lineage or any pension entries or anything else that specifically states a NJ origin for him. Time to check the DAR records <g>...

Glen: I would guess that Abraham and John are brothers both from New Jersey who settled in Onondaga County. Abraham stayed in Montgomery County for a while. John did not and was in Onondaga County by 1800.

Tom: speculation time.

1. That Abraham was from New Jersey - at least one DAR lineage says so, but that isn't proof.

He was in Montgomery Co. NY and married to one of its own by say 1785 and maybe earlier, per christening records. He was in the 1788 census there, etc., and died there in 1824. There were a number of Abraham Brittons in New Jersey, including one in Somerset Co. born in 1754 (that one's parents supposedly had a second child called Abraham in 1763, though). There were few Brittons in upstate New York, so it's entirely possible that Abraham came from New Jersey, but certainly not proven as a fact.

2. That John Britten was from New Jersey - again, the DAR lineage suggests this but it also states he and his wife were born in N.Y. without giving proof. A John Bretten of about the correct age was born to a Richard and Eva Bretten in Somerset Co., N.J. He had a brother Richard born at about the right time (say 1764). Richard and Eva disappear after 1775. An 28

Richard Britton of Batcombe, Sommerset, England

Generation 6 (con't) Abraham Britton was born in Somerset Co. to Abraham Britton in 1754, and two more entries are there. If these people are our John and your Abraham, they weren't brothers but might have been first cousins, say. There are John Brittons all over New Jersey during the Rev War period and up through the 1790s and a few Richards (John's brother). The best candidates are in Somerset and Monmouth Counties. I've recently concluded that the Monmouth group is well enough documented to now be a low probability for our John Britten. I've also determined that the Abraham and Sarah Britton in Monmouth Co. are not the same as the ones in Somerset Co. Basically, we know John was discharged in Newburgh NY in 1783 and then his whereabouts are unknown until the 1800 census, though he was supposedly married in 1795 in N.Y. 3. Any connection between Abraham and John? A very tentative one, maybe circumstancial but maybe real. First, they may both be from Somerset Co. and thus might be kin. Second, an "unattached" Eva Brittain shows up twice in Montgomery Co - once in 1788 in the tax list for the same district where Abraham is found, and once getting married circa 1808. The latter one isn't listed as a daughter in Abraham's will, but that could be because she died or was disinherited. These may be the same woman or may be related somehow. (Also "unattached" in the Montgomery Co area: Joseph Britton and Catherine Britton). An Eva was the wife of Richard Bretten of Somerset Co., N.J., and one of John's daughters was named Eva (my specific ancestress). My ears always perk up a bit when I see this name. Third, there is an overlap in Manlius and DeWitt twps in Onondaga Co. for a short while. That is suggestive at best - after all, there were two other Britton families there as well. Fourth, there is one more connection back to New Jersey between Lena Frederick's sisters and the Van Horns: Eva Frederick (b. ca. 1754) married Cornelius Van Horn and Maria Frederick married Thomas Van Horn, both from the Hunterdon / Somerset Co. area. The two Van Horns had moved to Montgomery Co. prior to 1775 and their Rev. War service was from there.

Again, I'm trying to put together a coherent picture of Abraham's family on general principles and have more material than what is described here. If we can find some specific fact that ties someone from John's family to some interaction with Abraham's family, the speculations become more solid. Until then, we may just be looking at coincidental overlap.

David - there was a Patience Britton mentioned in the Manlius Baptist records - I notice that there was one in Richmond, Staten Island in 1796. The place was lousy with John Brittons, and most records seem to pertain to John Britton md. to Rachel Burbank. Sure would be nice to place Patience in Onondaga in relation to our John, though...

I don't know where to start. I began my genealogy search 4 years ago when I came across an old family Bible in my mother's house. The Bible belonged to Emiline K. Shaw, daughter of Newell Britton. Since then I have loaded over 3000 people into my database, but was never able to get a single generation back on Emiline's parents; until today. Thank you very much. I have written to the DAR but they are slow and I may not hear for several months. I'll let you know when I get anything. I went to the Onondaga court house this summer. I am a surveyor so looking up land records is second nature to me.

Here's what I found of interest: 1809- Abraham Britton sold land in lot 9 of Cicero 1820-Abraham Britton sold land in lot 55 of Manlius 1836-Abram and Hannah Britton sold land in lot 34 Manlius 1838-A. Britton sold to Archibald and Jane Britton land in lot 11 Manlius 1819-Abraham and Margaret Britton bought land in lot 55 Manlius 1815-Oscar Britton bought from J. Britton land in lot 12 Dewitt(book 88, pg.

The Oscar Britton born 1816 in Onondaga County who ran a hardware store in Meridian in 1850 , is probably the son of Oscar Britton who purchased land in Onondaga County 1815. I have no idea why Oscar SR. does not appear in any census unless he is the Oscar Britton in Marcellus in 1840. The fact that Oscar Jr. lived directly across the road from Newell Britton made me think there was a connection. Maybe not.

When I first found the family of Phillip Britton from Taunton, Massachusetts(later Onondaga County), I researched it pretty thoroughly until I became convinced it was not my line. I did not find any evidence of an Abraham in that line. Most of them are buried in the Collamar Cemetery which is in an area first called the Britton Settlement.

I too have found many Brittons in central New Jersey and Staten Island, New York. I think we eventually find that both clans are descendants of Nathaniel Britton, born about 1630 on Long Island. Male names in this family include, Richard, John, and Abraham. Nathan Britton Jr. moved to Monmouth County New Jersey around 1700 or a little earlier. His brothers stayed behind.

After that I find lots of Abrahams in both locations. There is an Abraham Britton born 1787 died 1866 in lot 144 in the Staten Island Cemetery along with his infant son Abraham Britton. My guess is that my Abraham in Montgomery County came from one of those branches of this family. I got a lot of work ahead to prove it.

Did Dave pass on the 1729 will of Nathaniel Britton I sent him? If not let me know and I'll send it.

It's possible that John was a son of Abraham Britton and Sarah Forster but I think it's much more likely that he was a son of Richard and Eva Britton. That couple is known to have had a John by the correct year because they baptised four of their children at once. They also had a son Richard born later and baptised at Readington and we know our John had a brother Richard per a pension affadavit. Since the first two children of John and Hannah Britton were named Abraham and Eva, it's most likely that Abraham was named after maternal grandfather Abraham Lott and Eva (Eve) after paternal grandmother Eva Britton. My main point here is that the Brittons of Montgomery County now look very likely to be close kin of John and he himself and probably his mother lived there for a short while. Your alternative suggestion could also be correct, of course - I just think it's less likely. Abraham and John were probably first cousins or possibly brothers.

I'm trying now to find specific origins for ANY of these Brittons. If we pin one, we'll probably pin the group of them. I'll see if I can find out anything on Catrinas born in New Jersey. / Tom I have same problem with my tracking of Betsy Britton, b. about 1762, Trenton, NJ. She married Alexander Eastlick, b. 1741, NJ, in about 1784. After appearing in the 1790 & 1800 Censuses for Upper Smithfield Twp, Northampton (Wayne by 1800) Co.,. PA, they settled in Reading Twp, Steuben County, about 1807. Alex--Ist Monmouth Militia--died in 1822, and Betsy went West (Ashtabula, OH) with son John that year. Any John, William, Jacob, or Frances or Betsy in your John's family? These were Alex's and Betsy's children and three of them married Strykers out of Sommerville Co., NY. Sometimes a clue given thru naming patterns. Too, families tended to follow one-another during those early years--perhaps your John and my 30

Generation 6 (con't) Betsy are siblings? So many gaps in early NJ records--thanks to our records-hating, firesetting, British friends of '76 and '12. Found some Brittons in Trenton that could have been Betsy's parents.

Betsy could be a sister to John Britten. I wonder where our John was after the Rev. War and until about 1800 in N.Y.? And why did he fight under the VA Reg.? He is listed under both N.J. and VA. Regiments. There are a lot of Brittens in PA. I have looked at some of them. I think we should keep her in mind.

Notes for Hannah Lott: See special text chapter on Lott Family. * a Jacob Lott is listed as residing in Pompey twp, Onondaga Co, NY according to US census: 1800 Census - Jacob Lott, p. 106, 1820 Census - Lott, Jacob, p. 72,

Need to view 1845 census in entirety. * Ancestry.com land records show Lewis Britten purchasing 80 acres on 1/1/1831 in northern Washtenaw Co. There are 12 different transactions for a Richard Britten between 10/14/1835 and 1/10/1856. First 2 and last 2 were in Livingston Co and the other 8 were in northeastern Hillsdale Co (ironically in the area of two towns today called Somerset and Somerset Ctr). * From: dkurtz@snet.net (Diane Kurtz) I checked for Richard Britten in the index to "History of Seneca Co. 1786-1876" and found one reference. P. 32, "In 1811, Richard Britten of Sheldrake or Ovid, was drowned in a like manner."

The sentence prior to this was someone who died after falling overboard from a ferry boat on Cayuga Lake.

I also checked "History of Ovid, Seneca Co., NY 1789-1889" and found a Richard Britten mentioned in 1819 in a list of overseers of Highways for the village of Ovid.

Could the drowning victim be a child of John's brother, Richard? Could the other reference be the elder Richard? * A Richard Britten is mentioned as a resident of "Old Somerset County" on the eastern shore of Maryland in 1689 (Genealogy Library on line). * From: Unrecorded Wills and Inventories Monmouth County, New Jersey "to a bill of Samuel Keimer [or Reimer] due august ye 29, 1730 Ăş9 proc. is 10--10--00 "to a bill of Richard britten due octob ye 30--1731 02--10--00 "Appraised as due from Richard Britten Insolvent 2--10--00 According to Grace Watson (letter in 1972 to Elizabeth), Richard may be connected to the Richmond County Britten family and the Richard Britten mentioned there born in 1766 may be the same.

Luckily it has been published.

You can find it in the DSGR (Detroit Society for Genealogical Research) Magazine, vols. 38-39 and 40. I checked the Doll Index; although it goes only through March 1847 it is an index of every mention of a name in the early newspapers. It listed a letter for Richard Britton Oct. , 1841. Since you mentioned the Superior Twp. connection, I did a quick check of our copy of the cemtery records for that townsip. We include a newer reading of the Free Church Cemetery done by the GSWC and supplemented with information from the cemetery records and a Mrs. Meyers, in who's possession the cemetery records were kept. The entry for Richard Britton reads as follows: Britton, Richard d. Jan. 24, 1849 [poem follows].

Dave, I have a land deed dated the Mar. 5, 1829 between Abraham and Abigail Britten of Jersey in the county of Steuben and Daniel Jackson of Ovid, Seneca Co. Also I found him in the 1850 Census of Michigan. Abraham and Abigail are living in Pittsford, Hillsdale Co. In 1860 Abigail is living with son John and wife Almira in Hillsdale Co. I talked with Helen "Sally" Twitchell last week. She has Wills, death records, etc. for her information.

DAR doesn't rely on the DAR lineage books for proof at all. Anyone who joins DAR now has to send in more accurate proof then they did before the 1950's even. I don't know where they got Margaret except there are more 36

Friday, April 19, 1889 - Obituary MATILDA BRITTEN PURDY Mrs. James Purdy, whose maiden name was Matilda Britten, and who died Sabbath evening, April 7, at the age of 82 years, 5 months and 15 days, was born in Onondaga county, New York, on the 23 day of Oct. 1807, where she grew to womanhood. In her 20th year she was married to David Meeker of the same state with whom she lived for 3 years until in the falling of a tree Mr. Meeker met with an accidental death. She was afterwards married to John Blovett (sic) and remained his faithful and encouraging helpmate until an accident again bereft her of her husband, he dying from the result of injuries received from a run away team - 3 days after the accident and 11 years of married life. The third union of this woman is well known when she associated herself in marriage with one long and well known in this locality, James Purdy, the well known deacon of the Plymouth Presbyterian church, of which the deceased was a member.

In the fall of 1836 the deceased moved from New York to Michigan and with her husband located at Canton in this making her home there about 5 years (likely with Blauvet) years and afterwards, moving to what is known as the Purdy farm, one and a half miles north west of Plymouth, which was her home 24 years up the date of her husbands death. Of late years she has made her home with her children.

7 months ago the 9th day of last August while upon a visit to Grand Rapids, Mrs. Purdy received a stroke of paralysis. She was removed to the house of her daughter, Mrs. Cole, in this place, the 12th of Sept. where she died. etc. (the rest is a bit of prose).

Publication date: [1903?].

In I862 Mr. DeVoe was united in marriage with Miss Mary F. Britten, a daughter of Richard R. and Ellen (Collins) Britten, later Mrs. Lorenzo Barkman. Richard R. Britten came to Michigan in 1835 and entered a tract of government land in Pittsford township on which he settled a year later, after his marriage, which occurred on August 28, I836. On this land he expended the labor of his mature life, clearing and improving it, adding to its fertility and attractiveness by continued and well-applied industry; here, also, on November 19, I875, he died at the age of sixty-three years, leaving eight children, being mourned by the community as a public spirited citizen who was always ready to aid in the promotion of every worthy enterprise, also as a very intelligent gentleman, diligently studious of political literature and well posted on leading questions of the day. Two years after his death, upon November 29, 1877, his widow married with Lorenzo Barkman, a native of Albany, New York, and an early 52

Richard Britton of Batcombe, Sommerset, England

Generation 7 (con't) settler in Michigan. He lived at various places in this state, finally locating at Hudson in this county, where he was for fourteen years engaged in the grocery business. After his marriage he lived with his wife and family on the farm on which she settled with her first husband when she was a bride of eighteen years, which was her home for a period of sixty-seven years and where she died a -few years ago. She was born in Seneca county, New York, on February 29, I820, and came with her parents, James and Elizabeth (Chandler) Collins, to the territory of Michigan in I833, and was thus able to see the country in all the wildness of its natural state and to bear her portion in the work of reducing it to fertility and fruitfulness. She experienced all the privations, hardships and dangers of frontier life, when provisions and the conveniences of daily living were scarce and hard to get, when the struggle for existence and advancement was constant and arduous, and when every hour, at times, was fraught with peril from savage beasts or still more savage men. And in this state she has lived to see the region developed and fructified, teeming with the products of peaceful and systematic industry, equipped with every facility for comfortable living, great and active in the might of its commercial, agricultural and industrial energy, rich in all the blessings of civilization and moral progress. Her story, if fully told, would thrill with interest, glow with pathos, sparkle with incident and darken with tragedy. It would be the ofttold tale of the progress of a state from barbarism to 'cultivated life, and it would link together two epochs of history far apart in time and much more widely distant from each other in conditions and features.

Mr. and Mrs. DeVoe have one child, their daughter, Ella M., the wife of A. H. McConnell, of Homer, in this state. Her father has been a lifelong Democrat in politics. He has been the choice of his party for a number of local offices, but the overwhelming adverse majority in the township and county has rendered the success of any man of his faith impossible at the elections. He is an active member of the Patrons of Husbandry, belonging to the grange at Pittsford. Mrs. DeVoe, has vivid recollections of the dangers of the early times, when bears, wolves and Indians were frequent visitors to the neighborhood of every household, and the wild animals often made night hideous with their horrible and discordant noises, holding all human life cheap in comparison with the gratification of their appetites for slaughter and prey.

Britten of this place, received intelligence on Saturday evening last, of the sudden death, by accidental shooting of his brother-in-law, Nathan Hastings of Charlotte, Eaton county, under the following circumstances: Mr. Hastings, as we have been informed, told his son, a young man, on Friday last, that he could go hunting the next day (Saturday) but changed his mind, and on the boy's appearing with the gun he told him he could not go. The young man did not heed his command, however, and set out for his uncle's, living in the same neighborhood. Shortly after his arrival there, his father came up and demanded the gun. The boy handed it to him, whereupon Mr. Hastings signified his intention of smashing it, but the boy did not sanction such amovement, and grasped hold of it to save its destruction, and in Mr. Hastings' efforts to regain it, the gun was discharged, the ball passing through his leg just below the body, severing the main artery, which caused his death in ten minutes. He was a former resident of this place, owning the farm on which Mr. Britten resides."

From a newspaper called "The News" dated April 18, approximately 30 years later: "CHARLOTTE, April 18 -- The slaying of Mrs. Charles Hastings Jr., by her husband and his subsequent suicide in Eaton township Tuesday, recalls the fact that the Hastings family for a number of years has been pursued by a 'jinx.' Older residents remember how, some 30 years ago, Nathan Hastings, the young man's grandfather, a well-known and respected farmer, through a fit of anger, lost his life by the shotgun route. Charles Hastings, Sr., father of the boy now awaiting burial at Eaton Rapids, started out hunting early one morning with a muzzleloaded shotgun. He had hardly left the house when his father, provoked by the action of his son, rushed out, grabbed the weapon from his hands and smashed the stock across a log. The gun was discharged as he did so, the load making a frightful wound in the groin of Nathan Hastings, who bled to death before medical assistance could be secured. It is also related that Waite Hastings, an uncle of the deceased boy, and a son of old Nathan Hastings, a few years later and in the same section of the township, took his own life in a fit of despondency."

Publication Info: Chicago : A.W. Bowen & Co., [1903?].

Page 244 In I862 Mr. DeVoe was united in marriage with Miss Mary F. Britten, a daughter of Richard R. and Ellen (Collins) Britten, later Mrs. Lorenzo Barkman. Richard R. Britten came to Michigan in 1835 and entered a tract of government land in Pittsford township on which he settled a year later, after his marriage, which occurred on August 28, I836. On this land he expended the labor of his mature life, clearing and improving it, adding to its fertility and attractiveness by continued and well-applied industry; here, also, on November 19, I875, he died at the age of sixty-three years, leaving eight children, being mourned by the community as a public spirited citizen who was always ready to aid in the promotion of every worthy enterprise, also as a very intelligent gentleman, diligently studious of political literature and well posted on leading questions of the day. Two years after his death, upon November 29, 1877, his widow married with Lorenzo Barkman, a native of Albany, New York, and an early settler in Michigan. He lived at various places in this state, finally locating at Hudson in this county, where he was for fourteen years engaged in the grocery business. After his marriage he lived with his wife and family on the farm on which she settled with her first husband when she was a bride of eighteen years, which was her home for a period of sixty-seven years and where she died a -few years ago. She was born in Seneca county, New York, on February 29, I820, and came with her parents, James and Elizabeth (Chandler) Collins, to the territory of Michigan in I833, and was thus able to see the country in all the wildness of its natural state and to bear her portion in the work of reducing it to fertility and fruitfulness. She experienced all the privations, hardships and dangers of frontier life, when provisions and the conveniences of daily living were scarce and hard to get, when the struggle for existence and advancement was constant and arduous, and when every hour, at times, was fraught with peril from savage beasts or still more savage men. And in this state she has lived to see the region developed and fructified, teeming with the products of peaceful and systematic industry, equipped with every facility for comfortable living, great and active in the might of its commercial, agricultural and industrial energy, rich in all the blessings of civilization and moral progress. Her story, if fully told, would thrill with interest, glow with pathos, sparkle with incident and darken with tragedy. It would be the ofttold tale of the progress of a state from barbarism to 'cultivated life, and it would link together two epochs of history far apart in time and much more widely distant from each other in conditions and features. Mr. and Mrs. DeVoe have one child, their daughter, Ella M., the wife of A. H. McConnell, of Homer, in this state. Her father has been a lifelong Democrat in politics. He has been the choice of his party for a number of local offices, but the overwhelming adverse majority in the township and county has rendered the success of any man of his faith impossible at the elections. He is an active member of the Patrons of Husbandry, belonging to the grange at Pittsford. Mrs. DeVoe, has vivid recollections of the dangers of the early times, when bears, wolves and Indians were frequent visitors to the neighborhood of every household, and the wild animals often made night hideous with their 81

The latter were people of intelligence and good judgment,. annd gave their children the best advantages nwhich the times afforded, Thomas J., in common with his brothers and sisters, attending the clistrict school (luring the winter. and confiningl his attention to the farm in summer. When a youth of eighteen years he began working by the month, and taught school durilng the winter until reaching his majority. During the late Rebellion he rel)aire(l to Tlillsdale, and on thle 25th of March, 1864, enlisted in Company K, 4th Michigan Infantry, and serve(l until the close of the war. receiving his honorable discharge at Houston, Tex., in May, 1866. His duties lay mostly on the frontier and in dealing with the guerrillas. IIe participated in the battles at Cold Harbor anll Petersburg, and was in the first anld seconll engagenments at Hatches Run, whlile his regiment was one of those letailed to receive the arms from the rebels at the surrender of Gen. Lee. lie saw considerable hard fighting and experienced several hairbreadth escapes, having, at one time, his knapsack punctured by shots from tle rebel guns, while, at another time, his own gun was shot to pieces. Upon one occasion a small tree behind which he partially concealed himnself, was the means of saving his life. Like many of the old soldiers, lie could weave an interesting volume from the many experiences of his army life. Mr. Curtis, upon his return from the army, assisted his father upon the old homestead during the harvest season and taught school in winter. In 1867 he purchased eighty acres of land near the town limits of Hludson, which he occupied two years and a half, and afterward farmed upon rented land until the decease of his father. Upon the settlement of the estate he purchased the interest of the oth'er heirs, and is now in possession of 160 acres, being-the greater part of the original home l stead; ill the mnelnatime he sold the- Itud(son Township farm. Hie occupied the house which his father put up in the early days until D)ec. 24, 1884, when the present handsorme dwelling was conmpleted and he took possession.

They are finely located upon a rise of ground and cormannd a view of thle surroundinllg country, whichl stretches away on either side, and presents in summer a, most delightful picture to the eye. The marri-tge of Thomlas J. Curtis and Miss Ida Britten was celebrated at, the home of the bride in Pittsford, I)ec. 12, 1868. Mrs. Curtis is the dauglhter of Richard R. and( Ellen (Collins) Britten, and was born in Hillsdatle County, )ec. 12, 1852, she was therefore married on her sixteenth birth(lay. lter father, a native of New York State, was born in 1812, reared to farm pursuits, andl at an early day migrated to the Territory of Michigan and located in Pittsford Townslhip, Hillsldale County, whlere his death took place about 1875. The mother is still living' at the old homestead( and is now seventy years of age. The five children of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis are recorded as follows: Willard R. was or)01 in HiEllsdale County, May 30, 1870, arnd is now pursuing his studies in Hillsdale College; MTinella was born in Rome Township, Feb. 6, 1874, and continues at home with her parents; Ray R. was bornl Nov. 29, 1879; Glenn, June 10, 1884; and Gail, in the new house, April 1, 1886.

Publication date: [1925?], pg 185: Harry E. Curtis, widely known and highly esteemed insurance man, was born May 12, 1890, a son of Thomas J. and Ida (Britton) Curtis, old settlers of Lenawee county. He attended district school, Hillsdale College and Michigan Agricultural College and for a period sold courses in the International Correspondence School. He was with Grinnell Brothers six years and went with the Lincoln Life Insurance Company as a special representative and now is district agent of the company for Oakland county. Mr. Curtis came to Oakland county and in Pontiac organized the force he directs. There are 3,000 satisfied and protected policy holders in the district and the Pontiac office is writing between $200,000 and $250,000 worth of business each year. The clientele has been materially increased under the direction of Mr. Curtis. Mr. Curtis, although a very busy man, finds time for fraternal association. He belongs to the Philatheans, a college organization, and has gone through all the chairs of Odd Fellowship. He is now a district deputy of that order and holds memmership, also, in the Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias.

On July 22, 1924, Mr. Curtis was united in marriage to Miss Hazel Taylor, of Adrian, Michigan. Mr. Curtis is rated a Republican in national politics. By religious conviction he is a Congregationalist.

Notes for Chauncy J Britten: Chauncy J. Brittenís Atmospheric Electrical Generator

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Inventor Promises Free Light & Power Daily News (Lansing, Michigan), December 31, 1930 Electric light and power ìas free as airî is the literal promise of Chancey J. Britten, 73-year old 87

Richard Britton of Batcombe, Sommerset, England

Generation 9 (con't) electrical wizard of Charlotte, Michigan. He is obtaining patents to safeguard his invention, a device which actually extracts electricity from the air without the aid of customary generators and motors. It consists of an aerial, home-made generator, and storage batteries. Photo shows him in front of his home, which he lighted for two years without expenditure of a penny for maintenance. At right is a closeup of the generator. Britten has defied anyone to explain the inner workings of his plant.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Radio Apparatus US Patent # 1,826,727 (Cl. 250-20) (October 31, 1931)

Chancy J. Britten, of Charlote, Michigan, assignor to Britten Light & Power Company, of Lansing, Michigan, a corporation of Michigan This invention relates to improvements in radio apparatus in the nature of an economizer and clarifier.

The objects of the invention are particularly to economize and conserve the current and to regulate and to clarify the tone.

Further objects and objects pertaining to details and economies of construction and operation will definitely appear from the description to follow.

I accomplish the objects of my invention by the devices and means described in the following specification. The invention is clearly defined and pointed out in the claim.

A device embodying my invention s clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which: Figure 1 is a detail perspective view of my improvement designed as an attachment to an ordinary radio set.

Figure 2 is a full size vertical detail longitudinal elevation view partially ins ection on a central plane.

Figure 3 is an enlarged detail sectional view on line 3-3 of Figure 2 through the body of the main connection.

Figure 4 is a detail diagrammatic wiring view showing the relation of my apparatus in combination with a radio set.

The parts will be identified by their numerals of reference which are the same in all the views.

Richard Britton of Batcombe, Sommerset, England

Generation 9 (con't) 1 is the base which may be of glass or suitable insulating material. 2 is a metal supporting column secured to the glass base in any suitable way. 3 is the main connector of my improved economizer and regulator having a horizontal portion 31 disposed in proximity to the base and secured thereto by a suitable welded or soldered button 32. It has an upright portion and horizontal portion 33 disposed through the upright supporting post 2. This connector comprises an outer tube or casing 34 preferably of copper, an inner central wire 35, around which is disposed a coil of wire 36. The coil of wire is embraced within a layer of mica insulating material 37. The tube is preferably under partial vacuum. Plugs 38 of insulation are in the ends of connector 3.

The inner central wire 35 and the coil 36 have their ends connected to suitable binding posts.

The binding post 4 on the lower horizontal part provides the connection to the radio set 5 containing the usual A, B and C batteries and being otherwise organized as indicated diagrammatically in Figure 4.

The binding post 6 is provided with connection 7 leading to the positive terminal 8 of the battery 9. The negative terminal 11 of the battery 9, which is a 4-1/2 volt dry cell battery, is connected to the lead 10 to the aerial.

The battery 9 is a duplicate of the C battery of 4-1/2 volt capacity but is not coupled up to act as a C battery but in the particular auxiliary relation specified herein.

Just how the structure results in the advantages stated is problematical and applicant is only able to state the results and define the structure which accomplishes the same without expanding on the theory by which it is accomplished.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by letters patent is: The combination with a radio set comprising A, B, and C batteries and an aerial of an economizer and clarifying device comprising an auxiliary battery dry cell, a base with post, a metallic tubular casing with a horizontal lower part and an upright and an upper horizontal part disposed through said post, a central conductor, a coil of wire around the conductor, the opposite ends of said conductor and coil being connected to a single binding post mounted on the upper and lower ends of the tubular casing which casing is suitably sealed at the ends, a mica insulation between said coil and the casing, a connection fro the lower binding post to the antenna connection of the radio set and from the upper binding post to the positive terminal of said battery dry cell, and a connection from the negative terminal of the said battery cell to the aerial of said radio set.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand, Chancy J. Britten

Notes for Charles Hastings: From a newspaper titled "The News" dated Apr 16, year unknown: "Charlotte, April 16 -- Charles Hastings, Jr., 21 years old, Eaton township farmer, murdered his wife and killed himself Tuesday. The young couple, who were married last fall, moved in with Harvey Hotchkin about two weeks ago, and the bodies were discovered by Hotchkin when he returned from his work after dusk last night. The wife, a mere girl barely past 20 was lying on the floor with a gunshot wound in the back of her head. Hastings after removing the discharged shell from the shotgun he used, placed the same weapon under his chin and, in both cases death was instantaneous, according to the statement of Dr. J. R. Bradley of Eaton Rapids, who accompanied Under Sheriff Hall to the scene of the double tragedy. Neighbors say young Hastings had been acting stragely; in fact, a farmer for whom he worked last summer said he did not want him around because he had been acting so queerly. The girl and her father were both 90

From the "History of Gratiot County" -- "...The evidence was, to a large extent, circumstantial, and was more or less contradictory, the jury having a difficult problem to solve, but they rendered a verdict that seemed to meet the minds of a majority of the people -- murder in the first degree.

There were some, however, who felt that a verdict of manslaughter would have been nearer the correct thing. The jury took six hours to decide the matter. Elmer Quimby was given a life sentence at Jackson." Sarah Quimby was also given a life sentence after conviction by another jury.

Still active at 84, Pete is the Health officer, tavern inspector and highway commissioner for the township. He got his first start with politics as Highway commissioner in 1901 when he was the first man elected on a Republican ticket in 23 years. Since then he has held every position in the township except that of supervisor.

He was born in Washington township in Gratiot county in 1871. He then spent some time in Eaton and Ionia counties before coming to Seville in 1897. Since then he has spent part of his time on his farm, four and a half miles north of the town.

Violet R Vanbuskirk was buried on 07 Jan 1934 in Riverdale Cemetery (with daughter).

Notes for Violet R Vanbuskirk: * In the Index of Brides Names in Gratiot County, 1855-1927 (Liber-page): VanBuskirk, Violet (E 130) * From the Riverdale, Gratiot County Newspaper "Riverdale and community were deeply saddened on Thursday, January 4, by the announcement of the death of Mrs. Basil Britten, who passed away about four o'clock, less than one and one-half hours after the birth of a baby daughter, which had died a short time before its birth. Two physicians, Dr. Hubbard of Vestaburg, and Dr. Becker of Edmore, did all that was possible, but she could not be saved and only rallied long enough to realize that her baby was gone and to speak a few words to her husband, and she passed quietly away to join the infant daughter in the Great Beyond. Mrs. Britten, before her marriage, was Miss Violet R. VanBuskirk, daughter of Homer and Myrtle Sneider VanBuskirk. She was born in Seville township on April 30, 1905, being at the time of her death twenty-eight years, eight months and 109

Richard Britton of Batcombe, Sommerset, England

Generation 10 (con't) four days old. Her mother and four brothers preceded her in death, three boys died in infancy and David passed away at the age of nine. Violet was a small child when her mother passsed away and her father was again united in marriage to Mrs. Harriet Wells Austin, who gave to Violet all the tender love and care, and mourns her passing as an own mother would.

"Mrs. Britten had spent her entire life in Seville township, attending the Boyer school and graduating from the Riverdale high school with the class of 1922.

"She was united in marriage to Basil Britten on June 4, 1924, and to their union were born, Gordon, nearly nine years old, and Gail (sic) aged seven, and the baby daughter which preceded the mother, and for which she gave her life. Besides the husband and two sons, she leaves her father and step mother and many other relatives and a host of friends that mourn her untimely death.

"It seems scarcely fitting that so vivid a personality as Mrs. Britten could pass from our midst with only a chronical of the dates and facts of her life. Everyone who met Mrs. Britten carried away a pleasant memory of her. In her home she was an ideal wife and mother. Among the young married set she was a great favorite, into every social gathering she brought an atmosphere of enthusiasm and joy. She was loved and respected by people of all ages. She was a member of the Riverdale Methodist Ladies Aid and the Beaver Creek Ladies Aid. The home is disconsolate and she will be greatly missed there and by the entire community, but there will always remain a cherished memory of her example of true womanhood during the few short years of her life.

"Funeral services were held Sunday at 2:00 p.m. at the Riverdale M.E. church and the esteem in which she was held was evidenced by the immense gathering which gathered to pay their last respects. The church was filled to capacity and many were obliged to go into the basement. The floral tributes were many and beautiful. Mrs. Maude Phelps and Mrs. Minnie Showman sang two hyms, 'Beautiful Garden of Prayer,' and 'Sometime We'll Understand,' accompanied by Marguerite Hopkins. Rev. H.A. Carr gave an impressive sermon. Interment was made in the Riverdale cemetery.

"Pall bearers were: Charles Marvin of Higgins Lake, Leo Johnson, Henry battles, Clark Schnepp, Hazen Welch and Benson Wiltshire. Relatives who attended the funeral from a distance were Allen Britten, Roy Allen, Mrs. Etta Cole and Vernon Bowen of Grand Ledge, Mrs. Kate Britten Beaubeir of East Lansing, Mr. and Mrs. Warner Marvin and daughter of Higgins Lake, and Mr. and Mrs. George Schnepp of Houghton Heights."

Generation 10 (con't) Britten Violet I 052 Jan 4 1934 Seville Township, Gratiot Co. Violet is my grandmother. She died in childbirth but the baby supposedly was still born and we never had a name for her (we knew it was a "baby girl.") My dad is no longer alive but his older brother is. I would like to find out if the listing Deania is in fact the baby girl born to Violet and Basil Britten. If there is any kind of certificate I would certainly like to have it. I would use the information to mark the grave properly in the Riverdale Cem. Regina Rosina Beltinck was buried on 28 Mar 2001 in Riverdale, Gratiot County, Michigan, USA. Notes for Regina Rosina Beltinck: Beaver Creek Ladies Aid Society Seville Township, Gratiot Co., Michigan A Part of Local History

Just a beaver dam built on a creek near Lumberjack Park which emptied into the Pine River, became the name of the Beaver Creek Ladies Aid, as remembered by Norma Archambault.

On April 9, 1922 on a sunny afternoon, a group of ladies met at Winnie Leonard`s home and the aid was organized with Emma Leonard acting as chairman. Emma Leonard was the first president, Hattie Van Buskirt as vice president, Winnie Leonard as treasurer and Lizzie Welch as secretary.

The first regular meeting was held at Hattie Van Buskirt`s home where a good number joined the aid that day. Their aim was to help the Seville Church of God and the Riverdale Methodist Church and Sunday schools, to help those who were sick and in need or any other work to aid in the betterment of the community.

I, Thelma Hamp, joined the aid in 1934. As I remember their activities, we always had good meetings where a large number of members, neighbors and friends attended.

We had yearly dinners for the road commission, many times, at Lumberjack Park, prepared in our kitchen, which was built on the cabin by our husbands and other men for only our use. We had the dinners in the large part of the cabin which was used as a dining room. The road commission always enjoyed our meals and looked forward to them each year. The men paid a nice price and always tipped us for our nice dinners. We also sold pies and other food when there were other activities at the park. We also cooked for our husbands and other men when they worked at the park. At our regular meetings the young women always brought their children and they were welcome. They played on some of the equipment we purchased for the park.

We sold tickets on homemade quilts and tore carpet rags for small rugs to sell.

When we had our meetings in our homes, we always prepared enough food so our husbands and other men working in the fields could have dinner with us and they would give us one dollar each for the dinners and with this collection it all helped out.

We had many meetings in our homes after we were told we could not sell dinners or other food at the park. We gave up our Aid room and had an auction at Mayme Lake`s home. We sold off all our equipment, including dishes, and etc. The organ, stove, folding chairs and coffee pots were previously sold.

Generation 10 (con't) We gave Rock Lake Assembly ten dollars each year, gave quilts to fire victims, donated slides, teeter-totters, and cookout stoves to the park. We made layettes for mothers who needed them, sewed for the hospital, mended clothing for those that needed it. We remembered the sick with fruit, cards, or flowers and helped some in need and gave to charities and churches.

In later years, we have had many happy meetings in our aid member's homes. We met at Mabel Boyer`s and Majorie Whitehead showed pictures of her Alaska trip. We also met at Julia King`s who showed pictures of her Alaska trip. At Effie Lapaugh`s meeting, Ash Lapaugh took pictures of us. We were having a costume meeting. Later at another meeting, Ash entertained us with these pictures which were really hilarious, we laughed over them and really enjoyed his efforts of taking the pictures. We appreciated this very much and thanked Ash for his wonderful hospitality.

Another time we enjoyed ourselves was on a trip to Grand Rapids, Michigan. We were on a television show called the Don Melvin Show, in order to be given a large coffee pot. We left our homes on an icy January morning and arrived on time to put on the show. It started with Zelma Leach throwing water in a man's face. Water was all over the floor and they didn't mop it up.

Four of the women had to take off their shoes and throw them in a pile on the stage. Then we were blindfolded and had to find our shoes. I said to the women when we were still backstage that it would be just like Don to step one of us in that water barefooted. He must have heard me.

Fern Race found her shoes first and won a basket of fruit and the rest of us received a pound of coffee. Anyway, when we were on stage to find our shoes, well, what did Don do, but have me step in the water then sit me down on a chair with a blown up rubber duck on it. It squawked when he sat me down. I said, "oh I sat on a duck", and really believed I had, so I got up in a hurry. This really made everybody laugh. Clayton, my husband, said it was real good and that he enjoyed watching it on television at home. Edna Archambault and Vida Church received a kiss from Don Melvin for being the oldest members there. We were presented with a coffeepot for our efforts and later sold it to Clayton Hamp for ten dollars.

We have had our social gatherings in restaurants and antique shops. We talk about old times and about our loved members of the aid who have passed on, the ones we miss, who used to be with us and the good times we have had at our meetings in the past.

As of this year, 1999, the aid is seventy seven years old. We have eight members, Vida Church, being the oldest member at ninety-one years old. She has been a member for fifty-three years.

We have four charities we give to yearly. We no longer give quilts to fire victims or give to the Rock Lake Assembly. We at present are doing very well for so few members when at one time we had over one hundred members. We meet in our homes, tie off quilts for our members and for others for a sum depending on the size of the quilt. We make scrapbooks and lap robes for folks in the nursing homes who really enjoy them.

In July of 1999, Riverdale celebrated being 125 years old. There were many activities going on.

We had a table in the craft show where we sold some big quilts and baby quilts we had made.

At eleven o'clock there was a parade. Michael Hamp, great grandson of Thelma Hamp, and his wife Rhonda, drove their pickup truck in the parade. In the back, we had chairs, where we sat and two of the women, Pat Stone and Ula Keeler, held a banner with the word "BEAVER CREEK LADIES AID" on it. Later on, Mike drove his truck to the library where Pat Stone held their new son, Trevor, and Jim Stone took pictures of the aid members who participated in the parade.

As a group this year of 1999, we gave fifty dollars to the Equipment Locker in Alma, Michigan to do as they wished, gave twenty five dollars to the Salvation Army and donated a sum to the Senior Citizen's building in St. Louis, Michigan to help build a new kitchen.

Generation 10 (con't) Precious Memories Seventy seven years come and gone Since our ladies aid was started by some They were the ones we still hold dear Ones who filled our hearts with cheer.

We hope we can still be the same As the ones we remember only by name Working with our hands to fulfill the needs And everyday, each, doing good deeds.

As of today we are only a few To carry on the work these ladies did do But we still can have the love and the joy They shared with us and we all enjoyed.

Buried At: 31 Mar 1999 in Riverdale Cemetary He was buried in Riverdale, Gratiot County, Michigan, USA. Notes for Willard James Britten: Janet called this evening while we were out and said that Uncle Wink Britten (Joe Britten's brother), died in his sleep this morning Sunday, March 28, '99, peacefully after a long period of declining health. His funeral will be at 11 am on Wed out of the Riverdale funeral home. Use to be Ralph Schnapps funeral home but it has been sold. Dixie, if you talk to your folks, mention the funeral. There won't be many of us that can get back there. Bob and Marion Tedhams will be in Denver, John and Doris (White) Peterman are at our place in Tucson and Hum and Elizabeth White are also in Tucson but he does not travel too easily these days.

Janet may get off work and go. I have dental stuff going on in Tucson that I have waited a long time to get in for.

David, Dixie is my Uncle Edward Kalis (my mothers brother) daughter.

Uncle Pete, as we call her dad, knew Uncle Wink since my parents started dating. Dixie, David is a shirt tail cousin from my Dad's side that I have only got to meet in recent years. He is interested in family history and has done a lot of work on the Britten side. If any of you can think of someone that should be notified about the funeral, please let them know. I would like to have Uncle Wink get a good send off and Aunt Ruth know that she has our love and sympathy. Sincerely Joan Reaser

"Remembering Wink" by Ron LaClair What's the measure of a man when adding up his worth?

Is it the money that he's saved in his short time on earth?

Or is it how many things he has, things so fine and grand?

Things that he must leave behind to rust back to the land.

These things fall from memory, they're forgotten when they're gone, But the memory of the man himself will always linger on.

This man that we all knew and loved was special, as purest gold, When God created Willard Britten, he promptly broke the mold.

He said the world needs only one with qualities so rare.

For those that never knew him, it doesn't seem quite fair.

For those of us whose lives he touched, we are blessed, that's very true.

This man was measured, by his friends and that's everyone he knew.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Advocates for a Cleaner Township, P.O. Box 52, Riverdale, MI 48877 Published in The Morning Sun on April 27, 2011 Lumberjacks helped buy land to create park Published: Sunday, September 19, 2010 I asked Leona Harrell of Riverdale if she actually knew any old lumberjacks.

Lumberjack Park in Riverdale, 40 acres of virgin pine, was created thanks to a group of "old lumberjacks" and others who bought the land before it was to be sold and the trees cut for lumber. It was one of the very last parcels of virgin-pine land left at the time.

This was back in the 1920s.

Leona's daughter Linda Harrell had supplied me with some of the information on the park, which has been used by people for picnics, reunions and events of all sorts over the decades.

Anyway, Leona Harrell said that although her father worked at a mill during some winter months, she couldn't recall any old lumberjacks, personally.

But she did remember when the park was known as "Pine Grove" and she also remembered attending one of the early Lumberjack picnics, put on by the Lumberjack and Rivermens Park Association, the group that saved the land.

Old lumberjacks did make an appearance at least at one of those picnics, she said. And the Beaver Creek Aid - a women's society - provided the chicken dinners.

"There still might be a few members around," she said.

The old lumberjacks performed dances and clogs, and had log loading and log rolling contests.

They also sang old lumberjack songs.

For the record, there is apparently only one lumberjack song left and it is Monty Python's "The Lumberjack Song," from which whole universes have sprung, not to mention You Tube videos.

The song begins, for those who haven't heard it in its 1.5 million incarnations, "I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK, I sleep all night and I work all day."

Any song sung by real lumber men on the other hand, apparently remain hidden in tomes like, "Holy Old Mackinaw," which details the bawdy, hard drinking and fist fighting lives lumberjacks lived back then.

At any rate, the old lumberjacks and the others who formed the association to buy the land, paid off the mortgage in 1945, thanks to chicken dinners and other fund-raising events through the years.

Buildings were added, a band shell, and a ball diamond.

123

Richard Britton of Batcombe, Sommerset, England

Generation 11 (con't) According to Linda Harrell, "Probably the most famous visitor through the years was Henry Ford, who stopped at the park while traveling in the county in 1936. He admired the park and considered it worthy of his membership."

She said an estimated 60,000 people use the park each year.

Although no trees were cut down and sold for profit, they don't all last forever. A few have to be cut down before they fall down. New trees have been planted through the years.

The association, began back in 1925, continues, without the old lumberjacks.

And because they want to keep the park for future generations, so do the fundraisers.

Each month the group stages some kind of chicken dinner, pancake supper or taco feast at the park. They had one this past Saturday. The next one - homemade soup is on the menu - is set for Oct. 16 from 5 to 8 p.m.

Donations are welcome.

Notes for Max Harrell: Mary Free Bed polio patient from the late 1930’s recounts his experiences in autobiography Dec 28th, 2010 in Patient Stories, polio

by Maureen McKenzie Max Harrell, a former pediatric Mary Free Bed patient, wrote his autobiography to share with his kids. Mary Free Bed was lucky enough to also receive a copy, though Max said “I didn’t put much in it about Mary Free Bed. If I had it probably would be about a thousand pages long.”

Below is a summary of Max’s story.

Thank you for sharing, Max! Max’s Illness Polio patient, Max Harrell, tells his story in an autobiography Max turned 85 this past April and is happy to be able to celebrate his birthday, unlike so many of the young men he met at Mary Free Bed’s polio clinic as a boy. Many of his fellow patients never left the clinic.

Raised on a farm and driving the family truck by age 12, Max was a self-sufficient young man.

Second oldest of six kids, he was a responsible boy who helped friends, neighbors, family, and animals. He was your guy, whether it was swinging a punch for the person who couldn’t or driving into town to get the vet to save the family plow horse.

A neighbor asked Max, then just 12 years old, to teach her son to drive. Max took his neighbor’s son out to the harvested hayfield and gave a thorough driving lesson. On the drive home, because the lesson had gone so well, Max allowed his neighbor to drive. The car hit a sandy patch and slid off the road. The accident wasn’t too bad – Max walked away with just a lump on his knee.

That seemingly innocent lump became more than a warning for safer driving. The lump turned into a carbuncle, and later to a fever.

For the next couple months Max would worsen to such a state that his family thought they were going to lose him. Then miraculously, the fever began to fade. By Max’s birthday that April, he was able to be carried outside for the first time in months.

Max’s fever left him unable to walk, but with no other signs of illness. It wasn’t until that fall when re-entering school that the school nurse told his family they should take him to Butterworth Hospital. Max stayed in the men’s ward at Butterworth and was diagnosed with osteomylitis, an infection of the bone or bone marrow.

The hospital was 80 miles from his home so his mother would hitchhike, leaving early in the 124

Generation 11 (con't) morning and arriving late in the afternoon to see her son. His mom stayed with Max until his bedtime then began the journey all over again the next day, until one of the nurses offered Max’s mother a place to stay.

Because of the arduous journey, Max spent many nights alone, even signing off on an emergency surgery for himself. That winter he was transferred to Mary Free Bed’s polio clinic, where he was finally able to be with other kids his age.

Max’s Recovery Max Harrell had his ups and downs while he was a patient at Mary Free Bed. He struggled with issues of death, present sacrifice for future promises, and pain. Max had multiple surgeries. One surgery left him with a large hole in his hip that had to be cleaned and drained on a regular basis, which Max describes as excruciating.

Watching new found friends from the clinic leave on stretchers was dreadful, but Max never allowed himself to believe that he would leave Mary Free Bed the same way. He believed he was going to get better.

Max was a Mary Free Bed patient for three years. He remembers a “feeling of family, of being loved” from the staff and volunteers who came through the clinic.

At the end of his third year at the polio clinic, Max was allowed to spend the summer at home.

He was determined to get better. Though he was able to walk with crutches, he smashed them and learned to walk without them.

When Max went back to the doctor for an evaluation and to be re-admitted to Mary Free Bed, he shocked everyone by walking into the clinic unaided. The doctor sent him home for good in August 1941, at the age of 16.

Max is a medical oddity, from his recovery from the initial fever to his determination to walk. In 1939, while still at Mary Free Bed he was even a case study in a doctor’s conference for his astounding recovery.

“Some people say to me, ‘you sure have had a rough life,’” Max said, “But they don’t know what a wonderful life I’ve had. I give Mary Free Bed a lot of credit for that.”

Max’s Life After Mary Free Bed Max went on with his life, though the years at Mary Free Bed left him behind in school. He worked hard. Through odd jobs and favorable investments Max made a life for himself and for his family.

Max and wife Leona have four children, and have watched them all marry and have children of their own. They actively visit with all, though Max will occasionally accept an offer to have help carrying his luggage to the door.

In 1979, following a couple rough winters getting around, a friend recommended a hip replacement. Max was excited to be able to walk well again, a point of pride after his illness as a young man. He sought his doctor’s advice, and much to Max’s disappointment, his osteomylitis history, which made being able to walk so important, would hold him back from being a hip replacement candidate.

Max’s hope was restored a few years later when he found a surgeon willing to do the surgery.

Max would have a replacement first for his healthy hip and then the other, which since Max was 12, had remained a quarter inch shorter from his illness.

The first surgery was a success. A year and a half later, in 1983, when Max had his second surgery, he stood on legs that were the same length for the first time in more than 45 years.

Max re-gained some of the mobility in his hips thought to be permanently lost.

In 2001, Max took a spill in his garage that would bring back his bone weakness. He broke his artificial hip in the fall; when the doctor was replacing the hip, the bones splintered.

The doctor had no choice but to put a rod in Max’s leg that runs down to his knee. Rather than the six weeks of recovery that was anticipated, Max was in the hospital for two weeks and then in a hospital bed at home, unable to bear weight on his leg, for six months.

But this wouldn’t be Max’s story if that had held him back.

“On the wall I had a plaque that said: ‘I complained because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no legs.’” He used the time in bed to sit with a friend and design a pontoon boat. By the time he was done recovering, the boat was designed, measured, cut, and ready to be taken to the lake to be assembled.

Max finished his autobiography in 2007. On the final pages he includes pictures of his children, siblings, grandchildren, and other family members.

“I’m going to talk to St. Peter and see if I can contract for eight more years,” Max wrote. So far, 125

Notes for Beverly A Murray: Hi, David - I think I contacted you last summer or maybe earlier & sent you some family info. There are some errors or omissions on some of the info. If you want me to re-submit some family group sheets - I will. Can you make corrections & additions to your book on the net? It is a wonderful piece of work & I commend you! I have several articles from old papers, etc. I have the newspaper obit for Catherine Heminger who marr Joel Peter Britten. You might already have that. If you want it, just let me know. I also have the parents & grandfather of Maria Willard who marr Frederick Heminger. You might have that in your work & I have missed it. As you can see, it is 1:15 am Texas time, and I'm still up reading your work!! I just love it & am so happy for you that it is so easy to navigate and read. I will be in touch tomorrow when it's daylight & I have gotten some sleep. I teach high school, and so, I stay up all hours in the summer on the net & in libraries working on genealogy. See you later.
