On April 16, 1663, he sailed from Holland to Bedford, Long Island in "De Bonte Koe" (The Spotted Cow) with his wife and child two years old. He settled in NYC along by the "Wall." -- From: "Van Tuyl Ancestry of Mary Ellenor Stafford Bowman," p. xviii. from un-noted printed source. Some legal records noted by Alma Cramer and sent to JET 1672 -- "Nicolaes Davis, deceased, is indebted unto the following persons as appears by their accounts, delivered unto this Office, which is entered here by Court Order....Jan Otto van Tuyl, fl. 80 hollands Monny...."

Deft. admits that pltf. has earned so much on said ketch, but that he cannot pay unless being thereunto constrained by the Court. The court orders deft. to pay said monthly wages to the pltf. inasmuch as the pltf. has earned it from him as skipper on N. Davis ketch." [N.Y.

| 207 | Amanda died of measles. Her death was reported by her brother-in-law, Benj. F. Hicks. page 3, line 13. Her age at death was reported to have been 18, but she was actually 19. Her mother's name is given as Ann McKay. but census data from Aug 14, 1850 shows wife of Robert S. McKay, 54 to be Nancy A. 41. -- Frederick County, Virginia death registry, 1853-1870 | MCKAY, Amanda Shackleford (I1072)
|
| 208 | Among the witnesses were Robert McKay and Mary MacKay, which possibly proves a second wife named Mary. | Family F134

| 209 | An amazing woman as her three daughters were each born at the same hour if Miss Hale is to be believed!! -- LKL | SAUNDERS, Catherine A.R. (I1291)
|
| 210 | Ann died before 1726; possibly the daughter of James Brown and Honor Clayton, but also possibly of William Brown and Ann Mercer.-- See the following: Jobe's Journal, p. 69 "James and William Brown(e) were the sons of Richard (died 28 September 1662) and Mary Brown of Puddington near Wellingboro, Nottinghamshire. Richard Browne was an early Quaker convert and served as minister. "James Brown, a weaver, born 27 third month 1656, England; died 1715, Chester County, PA; arrived in America prior to 1679 aboard the ship, Kent, and settled in Burlington, N.J. On 8 sixth month 1679, at Burlington Meeting, he married Honour Clayton, daughter to William and Prudence Clayton of Chichester, who had emigrated in 1677. "The children of James and Honor Brown were 1) James born 17 first month 1681, [in Marcus Hook; married Miriam Churchman. 2) William, born 13 first Month 1682; married Esther Yardley. 3) Clayton, born 1 eighth month 1685. 4) Jeremiah, born 1697, 5) Margaret married John Churchman, 6) Daniel, and 7) Mary. "William Brown, born 19 first month 1658, England; time of death unknown; arrived in America after 1682. William married to Dorothy _____ in England; their first son, Joseph was born there 4 twelfth month 1682. In 1684 William married 2) Ann Mercer, 3) in 1699 to Catharine Williams and 4) in 1711 to Mary Matthews. He also had a son named Mercer [Son of Ann, and possibly brother to Ann Brown McKay?--LKL] who became a justice of the Common Pleas Court. "In 1699, the brothers Brown traveled west from Marcus Hook to found a new settlement in the wilderness; William cut down the first tree and they named the community Nottingham (no doubt in honor of their birthplace in England.) The first house was built by William on Nottingham Lot #33. which was just east of Andrew Job's Lot #32. Those lots were also near the property owned by Robert McKay circa 1722. "It should be noted that James Brown arrived in America before William Penn secured his patent for a colony. Being from Nottinghamshire, the scene of the early campaigns of George Fox, the Brown Family were probably among the first Quaker converts. They became known as the 'Browns of Nottingham' and produced many prominent ministers and judges. "There is a hope that Dee Buck (or someone) can find a link between the Brown family of Nottingham and that of Ann Brown who married Robert McKay. Perhaps the best bet would be that Ann was one of the children of William Brown Jobe's Journal, p. 66 "Ann Brown data: Dee Ann Shipp Buck of Omaha, NE, is of the opinion that the father to Ann Brown was James Brown.... Mrs Buck's excellent research leads her to belive that Robert MacKay was possibly born in America.... The following unverified information is from a letter dated 29 October 1970 to Katherine Reynolds from Mrs. James P. Whitmore of Tecopa, CA. She suggests Ann Brown was related to the Mary Brown who married Henry, the second Earl of Southampton After the death of Ann, McKay probably married (2) Mary _____, and (3) Margaret _____. It is believed that Ann Brown was the mother of his children. As yet, no Quaker marriage records mentioning Robert McKay have been discovered. According to his will, Margaret survived as Widow. There were daughters named Margaret and Mary, but none named Ann. -- Jobe's Journal | BROWN, Ann (I211)
|
| 211 | Ann was noted a beautiful woman. | HANCOCK, Ann (I1555)
|
| 212 | Anne V. Compton lists her dob as October 28, 1782, but I believe she has confused it with that of her eldest daughter and that Newmann's date of 1759 is more likely. -- LKL "Daughter of John Partlow, of Spottsylvania Co., Va and mentioned in her father's will dated Dec 11, 1789. John Partlow and wife moved to Va. from the Eastern Shore of Maryland and lived in Spottsylvania Co." -- Newmann, p. 15. Newmann, p. 17, writes: "It seems the names of Booten and Aylette came into the family through the Partlow wife of James Yates (Luch Partlow), because as shown in family Bible records, those names are carried in that branch of the family. The Aylettes, especially were an important early Virginia family. Colonel William Aylette was an influential member of the Virginia Assembly for many years, while it debated separation from England. One of his daughters married Augustine Washington, and the other married Colonel Fairfax. it was the latter with whom George Washington is supposed to have been in love." Not having seen the above mentioned family Bible records, it is difficult to judge, but I have always been told that the Booten connection in the Compton family was from the preacher who married Zachariah James Compton and Eliza McKay. But then he could also have been a distant relation!-- LKL | PARTLOW, Lucy (I146)
|
| 213 | Annie Virginia Compton's transcription of the Howard Compton Family Bible lists her name as Mary Wilson (Aunt Polly). She notes that she had 5 children and moved to Alabama. The "Wilson" name is more believable since her sister, Elizabeth was "Elisabeth Warfield" Could JB Taylor have miscopied his information which I believe may have come from the Howard Compton Bible? -- LKL Who was Thomas Compton? Was he related to Mary? How? | COMPTON, Mary Warfield (I155)
|
| 214 | Another form of the name was Getchell "Although Jeremiah Gatchell received from his parents a ten acre lot on the Salem River in 1680, and similar property in 1684 and 1692, he was a wheelwright by trade and, perhaps at the suggestion of Grimstone Boude, his evident brother-in law, he moved to the busy port city on the Delaware. In 1704 power of attorney he calls himself 'late of ye County of Essex in ye Collony of ye Massachusetts in New Engd. but now of ye City of Philadelphia in the Province of Pensilvania.' On 23 October, 1713, Jeremiah Gatchell 'the Elder of Philadelphia, wheelwright' conveyed the three ten acre lots in Marblehead received from his parents to Jeremiah Gatchell, junior, 'of Marblehead but now in Philadelphia,' who had already held them under lease, the consideration being love and affection and the yearly rent of 6 pounds to his father as well as a provision that within a year of the grantor's death the grantee would pay 100 pounds to Joseph Gatchell and Dorothy Gatchell or, if they be dead, to Sarah and Lydia Gatchell, his brother and sisters. Jeremiah, Joseph, and Dorothy remained in their native town (and their brother Increase in Boston). Elisha, Sarah and Lydia, who were settled in Philadelphia, on the same day quitclaimed their interest in the Marblehead real estate to their brother Jeremiah. It was not until 1724, however, after their father's death, that the two remaining children, Increase and Dorothy, sold their interest to the younger Jeremiah. "The last years of Jeremiah Gatchell in Philadelphia must have been comfortable for, at some time between 1714 and his death in 1720, he married a second wife, the rich widow Katherine ( ___) (Moll) Conyhane. In her first marriage this lady had been the second wife and inheritor of one-third of an estate of 1578/2/8 left in 1701 by John Moll..." -- "Grimstone Boude and his family" | GATCHELL, Jeremiah (I854)
|
| 215 | Another source listed her name as "Surman." Bowles corroborates the "Firman." | FIRMAN, Rachel (I1551)
|
| 216 | Appointed vice constable on May 20 1747. Appointed constable in place of his father, also named as trustee in father's will. Grand Jury Presentments to Elisha Job for swearing more than four oaths, November 16, 1751. In June of 1752, John Griffiths brought suit against Elisha, charging that he assaulted John's son , Edward Griffiths, an infant in 1750. Dee Ann (Shipp) Buck believes that his mother was Elizabeth McKay. | JOB, Elisha (I890)
|
| 217 | At the time of his marriage, John Batson was a dry-goods merchant in Quincy, Ill -- M/T #6. He apparently moved around quite a lot and was never too successful. He lived for a while in Tennessee, Illinois where his daughter Nelle may have been born. I remember him as a very old man who was extremely deaf. He had a big hearing aid which I always wanted to touch. I was taught to call him "Uncle Johny-John." -- LKL "Former Palmyran Dies in Urbana, Ill. "John S. Battson was born near Piqua, Ohio, on Jan 6, 1860, the second son of Jonathon D and Catherine Ullery Batson, and died in Urbana, Ill. on May **, 1944. "At the age of 18 he moved with his parents to a farm near Palmyra where he later met and was married to Etha Belle McLeod on Dec. 24, 1885. "To this union were born three daughters, Mrs. Nelle Walker of Urbana, Ill.; Mrs Bess Breeden of Willowbrook, Calif.; and Gladys Donzella, who died in 1919; two sons, Frank M. Battson, Hobart Wash.; and Paul Battson, Modesto Calif. "Mr and Mrs Battson celebrated their golden wedding anniversary in Palmyra, Dec. 24, 1935. "As a young man Mr. Battson followed the teaching profession for a few years, then moved his family to Quincy, where he was employed for some years at the Kespohl-Mohrenstecher Store. "About 1896 Mr Battson established his own business at Stillwell [?], Ill and later at Tennessee, Ill., where he continued as a merchant until ill health forced him to move south in 1922. "Mr Battson is survived by four children, his wife having died on July 3, 1943. His funeral was held at 2 o'clock on Wednesday, May 17 at the Williams[?] Memorial Home in Colchester, Ill, followed by the burial services at Macomb. "Mr. Battson united with the Methodist church in Rape** Chapel near Piqua, Ohio, when a young boy and was a loyal and consistent member of the church throughout his long life." -- Palmyra Spectator undated. | BATTSON, John Sherman (I92)

| 249 | Basic information from JET, grave markers, and personal knowledge Joshua Booten Taylor was named for his father's brother Joshua Thomas Taylor and for his mother's brother James Booten Compton. The "Booten" came from a preacher and family friend, James Booten. -- JET "Ten Room Farm Home Destroyed By Fire "The ten room house on the farm of Mr. and Mrs. George Keller in Fabius Community was completely destroyed by fire, Tuesday morning. The place formerly owned by Mr. and Mrs. J.B. Taylor, was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Verne Spencer. Mrs Spencer is the former Lois Keller. "Much of the household goods was [sic] saved and no outbuildings were destroyed. "The Palmyra Rural Fire Department was called to the scence [sic] about 11 a.m., but the blaze was too far underway for the structure to be saved. Fireman worked for four hours. They brought the truck back to Palmyra for a further supply of water after the first hour. "Origin of the blaze was not determined. "Firemen making the run were Chief Edward Schaeffer, Lawrence A. Wellmann, Lester West, Tom Stow, and James Boettcher. "Spacious, conventient [sic] and modern, the house, built a number of years ago by Mr. and Mrs. Taylor, was one of the attractive farm home [sic] of the county. "The house was insured. "Mr. and Mrs. Spencer were planning to move in the near future to a farm near Shelbina." -- Palmyra Spectator Jan 24, 1956 (written next to clipping) The date of the above may have been the date of the fire not of the article. The house was built in 1871 & 1875 by Joseph Franklin Taylor (q.v.) and was remodeled by J.B. Taylor in 1902, 1909, and 1925 according to notes made by JET. I remember the fire incident quite well. The fire was thought to be electrical. The housewife, Mrs. Spencer, was doing laundry and carrying it to the attic to dry. When she opened the attic door to hang up another load, she found the attic ablaze. Whenever we visited Palmyra, my father always drove through Quincy so that he could pass the old home place. After the fire, he never drove that way again if he could help it.--LKL Funeral Services of Joshua Booten Taylor (from the Quincy paper of Thursday, February 16, 1967) "Funeral services for Joshua Booten Taylor, 90, of Palmyra, were held Wednesday, Feb. 15, at 2 p.m. at the Lewis Brothers Chapel with the Rev. Howard Meyer officiating. Burial was in Greenwood cemetery. Casket bearers were Bill Owsley, Randles and Robert summers, Bob Calvert, Raymond Todd and Archie Pugh. "Mr. Taylor was born August 25, 1876 in Marion County, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. J. Frank Taylor. On May 29, 1901 he was married in Marion County to Grace E. McLeod, who preceded him in death on Nov 30, 1963. He died Feb 13, at 6:10 p.m. at Ivy Manor Rest Home where he had resided for several years. He was a retired farmer and a member of the First Baptist Church of Palmyra. "Survivors include two sons, Dr. A.B. Taylor of Urbana, Ill., and J. Eugene Taylor of Nashville, Tenn.; one daughter, Mrs. Kathryn Mitchell of St Louis; two grandchildren, Kay Taylor of Chicago [i.e., Skokie, Ill.] and Josh E. Taylor of Atlanta, Ga. "He was preceded in death by two sons and one sister." Joshua Booten's mother died when he was born. This was surely a great influence in his development and personality. He had an older sister who was very sickly. He and the sister were raised by their father and by a cousin of their mother, Eliza Catherine ("Aunt Cat" or "Cattie") Tripplett. He attended Franklin school and then the Missouri Military Academy in Mexico, Missouri, probably because there was no local high school. There he won a medal. He spent a year at the University of Missouri in Columbia, but had to return home to take care of his father's affairs (See Joseph Franklin Taylor). His boyhood friends included John Hansbrough and Charles Bryant Taylor. Details of his meeting and courting Grace E. McLeod are not known to me, but they probably knew each other from a very young age since they lived in the same neighborhood, attended the same church, etc. As a father, I believe he was quite strict. He did not like to have his oldest son use his tools; a fact used by Jack to explain his general mechanical ineptitude. My grandfather Taylor was a deeply religious man of serious demeanor. He was unfailingly courteous, always touching his hat brim in greeting a woman on the streets of Palmyra. Until his eyesight failed and his mental condition deteriorated, he loved to read. He perused many religious tracts and books, but also enjoyed gentle humor in the best sellers of the day. I was not too fond of visiting my Taylor grandparents because there was little to do there. No card games! Worse yet, no public library to loose myself in books. The local television stations were limited, and the daily soap operas that my grandmother followed were not to my taste. Thus I ended up reading a number of the non-religious books that I dug out of the bookcases. Grandpa had retired from farming about 1936 or "37 because of his allergies, asthma, and general ill health. He had some sort of surgery, possibly prostate surgery in the spring of 1937 and was thus too ill to attend my parents' wedding. He was also very upset by the death of his youngest son, Francis in an automobile accident in 1935. Frank was the only son interested in farming and would have been the one to inherit the farm which had been in the family for two or three generations. Despite his retirement from things agricultural, Grandpa kept a vegetable garden at the back of the house. He was the first to plow the plot and plant. My parents, upon hearing of his early spring activities, would swear that he would loose it all to frost, but he never did. In addition to the vegetable garden, he did much of the heavy work in Grandma's flower gardens in front of and along side the house. The church formed a third and greatest interest for my grandfather. He had been a member of the Bethel Baptist Church, founded by his great grandfather, when he lived on the farm. He also held many positions in the church government. When he moved to town, he transferred his membership to the First Baptist Church of Palmyra. I remember this church from the late 1940's through the 1950's when one Reverend Sutterfield was the minister. What a horrible man. His sermons consisted of yelling! Yelling the scripture readings; yelling his "message" which consisted of repetitions of the text in various forms. There were no depth, no interpretation, and certainly no inspiration. When my cousin, Josh was presented to The Reverend by his proud grandparents, Josh demanded, to their utter dismay, "What makes you shout so much?" I was in complete agreement, but a a bit more subtle (or cowardly), calling him Mr. "Stutterfield" to myself. My favorite occupation during interminable services was to count the organ pipes across the front of the church! -- LKL | TAYLOR, Joshua Booten (I1)
