3171 Some Land Records provide evidence.
There has been much discussion as to the parents of Alice and Rachel Yarnall. I believe the Yarnall Geneology Book (A Partial Genealogy of the Name Yarnall-Yarnell, pub. 1970) is incorrect in listing them as children of Francis and Mary Morris, not only were Francis and Mary too old to be the parents, but both lived and died in Chester county and were members of the Quaker Meeting and they kept excellent records. I am sure they were the children of Francis Yarnall (born 1719)(third generation) and Mary Lincoln. Francis lived all his life on the frontier in Berks and Northumberland Counties and on at least two occassions was forced out of the area by Indian troubles. The genealogy book is correct in listing 7 children, however, I think there were at least 2 more children; Rachel, married to Isaac Penrose and Alice, married to Joseph McIntyre. (There may also have been a son Francis and another daughter Ellen). Listed below are the reasons I believe this.

1. The genealogy book is wrong as to Francis' (second generation) second wife being Mary Lincoln; prior to her marriage to David Morris her name was Mary Phillips daughter of Phillip Phillips.

2. The will of Francis Yarnall (second generation) only names one child from the second marriage, Mary (married to Joseph Thomas), even though his step children are named.

3. Alice McIntyre is listed in the settling of the estate of Jesse Yarnall, (son of Francis and Mary Lincoln Yarnall), who I believe was her brother.

4. Joseph McIntyre is listed in the Day book (survey book) of Mordacai Yarnall (1772) as having borrowed 35 pounds from him.

5. Isaac, Jesse, Peter Yarnall and William McIntyre (a son of Alice) all owned land joining each other in Center County, Pennsylvania.

6. Alice and Rachel (and Francis and Ellen) are listed as children of Francis and Mary Lincoln Yarnall in the Heber Gearhart papers.

7. Francis Yarnall's parents were Peter and Alice. Mary Lincoln's parents were Mordacai and Hannah. We know Francis & Mary had children named, Peter, Hannah and Mordacai. Quaker customs were to name children after the parents and grandparents.

8. Francis Yarnall lived at Yarnall's (now Taylorsville). Also living there were sons Peter, Isaac and Jesse. The boundary line for Northumberland County, when it was surveyed in 1772, was the Yarnall Path. This path went from Yarnalls to the Catawissa area. Living in the Catawissa area was Francis' son Mordacai and daughter Hannah (married to Ellis Hughes). Also living in the area were Alice and Joseph McIntyre and Rachal and Isaac Penrose.

9. Alice Yarnall was mentioned as to her helping the survivors of the Wyoming Massacre in 1778 as the Connecticut settlers came down the river from Wilkes Barre. I believe that Francis Yarnall and Ellis Hughes and Mordacai Yarnall were in the Catawissa area around this time surveying and finding good land for speculators and settlers.

Documents to prove the above are as follows:
Marriage certificate of Mary Phillips and David Morris.
Francis Yarnall Jr's. will.
Estate papers from Jesse Yarnall.
Day Book of Mordacai Yarnall.
Map of land of Wm. McIntrye and the Yarnall's in Center Co.
Heber Gearhart Papers from the Pa. Historical Society.

Records of the Lincoln Family
Hi Elaine,
I agree! And to support your beliefs [and mine], I quote from "Jason & Martha Harmer Penrose, Their Ancestors, Descendants & Related families 1200-1982" by Evelyn Thompson Penrose ..... pg 70:
Isaac Penrose, son of Richard and Margaret Wright Penrose, was born 27 July 1757 in Maiden Creek township, Berks county, Pa; he died 15 May 1826 (or 3 Aug 1826) in Whitchurch township, York county, Home District, Upper Canada. Isaac's marriage about 1790 to Rachel Yarnall, born 28 Dec 17__, died 30 Aug 1836, was contrary to Friends' discipline and he was disowned at Exeter Monthly Meeting in Pennsylvania. Isaac and Rachel moved to Catawissa township (now Roaring Creek), Northumberland County, Pa; both Isaac and his father were listed in that area in the 1790 census. Isaac was re-admitted to Exeter Monthly Meeting in 1796 and transferred his membership to Catawissa Monthly Meeting by certificate dated 31 May 1797 and presented 26 Aug 1797. His wife Rachel was received into membership at Catawissa Monthly Meeting 24 Mar 1797. Isaac took the oath of Alligiance in Canada 31 Dec 1805; and he and Rachel were received as members of the Yonge St Monthly Meeting 16 June 1808.

From the "History of the Lincoln Family" by Waldo Lincoln .... pg 50-51:
Mary [Lincoln], date of birth unknown; died after 1769; married in 1742, Francis3, son of Peter2 (Francis1) and Alice (Worrilow) Yarnall of Goshen, Pa., born Sept. 27, 1719; died after 1769 in which year he, being described as "yeoman of Reading, Pa.," with his wife Mary joined her brothers and sisters in a quit-claim deed to her half-brother Abraham. Francis Yarnall was a Quaker but his wife was not and complaint of his marriage "out of meeting" was made at Exeter Meeting 8 mo. 7th, 1742, and testimony was formally made against him 10mo. 30th of same year as follows: "Whereas Francis Yarnell, son to Peter Yarnall of Exeter, having but a short time past Requested of Friends to let him come under their care, which was granted him, but for want of being so Careful to mind the gift of God in himself as he ought to have done, he went to vain Pastimes, and took a wife of another Persuasion and took an oath before Magistrates; yet, notwithstanding what hath been acted by him, Friends care over him at several times hath been to bring him to a sense of his condition, but all seeming to work no contrition in him, therefore, for the Clearing of the Truth, and the Professors thereof, it is the sense and Judgment of this Meeting to give this as a Testimony against him for his disorderly proceedings, until he gives proof of his unfeigned Repentance; which in love of God we heartily desire for his soul's sake. "Signed on Behalf and by the Order of our Monthly Meeting held at Exeter the 30th of the 10th month 1742. (From records of Gilbert Cope, Westchester, Pa.)

They were certainly married before May 10, 1743, when Francis Yarnall "cordwainer" and Mary his wife of Amity joined William Tallman and Anne his wife, also of Amity, in a sale of 100 acres of land conveyed to Hannah and Mary Lincoln by their father. He probably united the trade of "cordwainer" with farming or perhaps abandoned the trade in the latter part of his life. The only occurrence of the name of Yarnall in the Berks County Probate Court is the granting of administration, March 10, 1781, on the estate of Mordecai Yarnall, late of Exeter township, Yeoman, deceased intestate, to Leah Yarnall, relict; surities: Francis Yarnall and Jesse Yarnall. It is quite probable these are the children of Francis and Mary (Lincoln) Yarnall. The recent discovery of a Lincoln family record at Lebanon, Ohio, which is printed in full under John Lincoln, adaa, has furnished positive evidence of two of the Yarnall children, the oldest and, probably, the youngest; and it seems safe to assume that Francis and Jesse, the sureties just named, were their brothers. (The Ancestry of Abraham Lincoln, pp. 72, 195.)

3172 Someone inverted his middle and last names. Samuel Rose Parkinson is his correct name and his ordinances are completed.
Samuel Rose Parkinson was a native of England, world traveler in his youth, convert to the Church and one of the founders of Franklin, Idaho.

Samuel R. Parkinson was born at Borrowford, Lancashire, England, on April 12, 1831, the son of Willliam and Charlotte Rose Parkinson. When the boy was seven months old, his father died. The widowed mother moved to Stockport, where she found employment as a school teacher. At Stockport in 1835 she met and married Edmund Berry, a coal merchant. Times were hard in England during these years, and in 1839 Edmund Berry decided to take the family and move to Australia. They sailed from Liverpool in April, and five months later arrived at Sidney. Young Samuel Parkinson was now eight years of age.

Edmund Berry found business conditions unfavorable in Australia and after residing there three years decided to move to New Zealand. The family left Sidney in October, 1842, and arrived at Auckland six weeks later. Edmund Berry was restless; he did not like the looks of Auckland and decided to continue on the same ship to Chile. The family arrived at Valparaiso in January, 1843.

Samuel R. Parkinson was now approaching his twelfth birthday and was able to obtain employment on his own. He found work as a gardener. He also attended school and quickly learned the Spanish language.

After three years in Chile, during which time he accumulated several thousand dollars, Edmund Berry decided to leave that country and return to England. The family sailed down the West Coast of South America, rounded Cape Horne and reached England early in 1846. Young Samuel Parkinson, now fifteen years of age had journeyed around the world.

There was one more move for the Berry family to make and that was to the United States. In 1848, two years after their arrival in England, this journey was undertaken. They sailed from Liverpool to New Orleans and thence by steamboat up the Mississippi River to St. Louis, where they arrived in October. They rented a house from a Latter-day Sainte family named Clement.

There was a large branch of the Church in the St. Louis at this time and Samuel R. Parkinson, now seventeen years of age, began to attend the meetings. In December, 1848, he was baptized. He also met a young lady in the branch, a convert from England named Arabella Chandler. They were married on January 1, 1852.

As soon as they were married, Samuel and Arabella began to plan on uniting with the Saints in Utah. By 1854, he had accumulated $700 in money, a wagon, and a yoke of oxen. Samuel was twenty-two years of age, a substantial, hard-working young man. They began the journey to the West with about sixty wagons known as the "St. Louis Company" and arrived in Salt Lake City on the 23rd of September.

Anxious to get permanently located as soon as possible, Samuel went to Kaysville a few weeks after his arrival in the Valley, purchased a piece of land, built a log house, and settled down to the life of a farmer. From the beginning he maintained himself and his family, three children having been born to them.

In 1857 he was requested by President Young to take his team and wagon and accompany a group of men back over the plains to Devil's Gate, and bring in the goods of the handcart immigrants, which had been left there during the disaster of the previous year.

A few months later he was called to go to Echo Canyon and assist in defense of the Saints against the approaching Johnston's Army. Early in 1858 he was requested to go to the Salmon River country and assist the settlers at Fort Lemhi in returning to Utah. Later in 1858, he took his family and moved south with the Saints, who vacated their homes prior to the entrance of Johnston's Army into Salt Lake Valley. After a peaceable settlement of affairs had been made with the army, Samuel Parkinson brought his family back to his farm in Kaysville.

Many settlers flocked to Cache Valley in the spring and summer of 1859, and the fame of the valley spread abroad. Early in the spring of 1860 a group of men in Kaysville decided to investigate the new location for farming possibilities and homesites. Among these men were Samuel R. Parkinson, Alfred Alder, Peter Pool, E. C. Van Orden, William and John Comish, Shem Purnell, George Alder, W. H. Rogers, James Oliver, and Arnold Goodliffe.

This group reached Wellsville about the time snow melted off the ground in the spring. They inquired at each town as they traveled northward to learn if there were available land for settlement. At each place they were informed that all the land had been "taken up." They continued on to Cub River and, finding that no one had located in that vicinity, they decided to stop and build a town. Samuel R. Parkinson thus became one of the original settlers of Franklin, Idaho.

A few days after the group stopped on Cub River, Peter Maughan, "Presiding Bishop" of Cache Valley, called at their camp and appointed Thomas S. Smart, Samuel R. Parkinson, and James Sanderson to divide the land and take charge of the temporal and spiritual affairs of the colony, until a bishop could be appointed.

From the beginning Indians were troublesome to the settlers at Franklin. A large band gathered on the Bear River in the late fall of 1862, about twelve miles north of Franklin. This group had committed many depredations and Colonel Patrick Connor, in command at Fort Douglas, decided to take his troops and "chastise" them. A battle was fought on January 29, 1863, in which several soldiers and approximately three hundred Indians were killed. Samuel R. Parkinson was one of those who took his sleigh and went to the battlefield and brought in the wounded soldiers to the Mormon colony. He also transported a group of them to Fort Douglas in Salt Lake City.

In the summer of 1863 Samuel R. Parkinson and Thomas S. Smart built the first saw mill at Franklin, which was also the first in southeastern Idaho.

Two residents of Franklin, Andrew Morrison and William Howell, were getting out logs in a canyon east of town in May, 1863, when they were attacked by Indians. Morrison was seriously wounded by two arrows shot deeply in his body. Howell escaped and ran to town for help. A posse rescued Andrew Morrison, and Samuel R. Parkinson went for a doctor. He hitched his fast mules to the front wheels of his wagon and started for Salt Lake City; he was back in forty-eight hours with Dr. Anderson, whose skillful work assisted in saving the life of Andrew Morrison. Samuel R. Parkinson always gave his assistance freely to anyone in distress.

In 1868, when the Franklin Cooperative Store was organized, Samuel R. Parkinson became a stockholder and the manager. Later he helped to organize the North Star Woolen Mills, which he also successfully managed for many years. He kept several teams on the road freighting to the Montana mines. He was the owner of a good farm and a large band of sheep. He was diligent and prosperous in his business.

A thorough and devoted Latter-day Saint, Samuel R. Parkinson served thirty years as a member of the Franklin Ward bishopric. He also spent considerable time in his later years doing temple work, which was near to his heart. His greatest success, it might be said, was in the rearing of a large and splendid family. Three of his sons and one grandson became presidents of stakes; other sons and grandsons served as bishops; all of his sons and daughters were devoted to the Church.

Samuel R. Parkinson died in Preston, Idaho, on May 23, 1919, a few weeks past his eighty-eighth birthday. In a written statement he had prepared to be read at his funeral is the following paragraph:

"It is my solemn testimony that Joseph Smith was divinely commissioned to bring forth the Everlasting Gospel, the only true plan of salvation, inaugurated and planned by God himself, with all its wonderful gifts and blessings, for the benefit and final exaltation of the human family . . . Through its power and authority this Gospel is being preached to the inhabitants of the earth, and I bear solemn witness that no power on earth will ever be permitted to disturb or stop its progress."

3173 Son of Amos Sr. & Hannah (Oldham) Gates of Cambridge and Framingham Massachusetts, death date from probate, death place from last known contemporary family residence, Spa Springs or Victoria Vale, attempting to approximate it's then contemporary name usage.

Marriage #1. 5 May 1745 in Leicester, Massachusetts to Mehitable Trowbridge (1726-?), d/o John & Mehitable Elizabeth (Eaton) Trowbridge, also of Cambridge and Framingham. His brother, Amos Jr., married their daughter Mary, six months earlier.

Marriage #2. 20 Nov 1754 in the Spencer District of Leicester, Massachusetts to Patience Frances Bartlett (1734-1759), d/o Nathaniel & Sarah (Thompson) Bartlett, of Newton and Brookfield.

Marriage #3. 5 Sep 1759 in Brookfield Massachusetts to Thankful Adams (1734-?), d/o Jonathan Jr. & Mary (Mitchell) Adams, of Grafton, from Chelmsford and Deerfield.

The "Dana Family in America" reports he married next to a Jane Drew. Others have misread, misrecorded, or misreported the name of his widow, Jemime, as Jennie, as it appears in his will from May of 1797, repeating the name as Jennie Drew, but it appears that Oldham and Jemima were certainly married before that late date. He ultimately married Jemima (Burtis) (Mrs. John Potts) Gates, from Elmhurst-Queens and Bedford-Kings, New York, their precise marriage date and place unknown. She died about 1816, at the home of one of his sons, that possibly also their old homestead.

The "History of Framingham, Massachusetts" reports he was wounded at Bunker Hill, side not recorded. After serving at Crown Point with the Massachusetts militia, he moved to Nova Scotia. His brother Amos is recorded as applying for land there, but does not seem to have actually moved. Oldham was soon appointed one of a handful of militia captains for Annapolis County. There is no record of Nova Scotia militia, going to, returning from, or being in or around Charlestown, Massachusetts fighting for either side. His brother Amos had a son, Oldham, who served during the war, along with four other sons, one of whom died in the war. That specific Oldham Gates may rightly deserve this distinction of service. One source, long misplaced, had him wounded in the arm, I believe from this engagement. I have not been able to locate that information. Again, I believe this applies entirely to his nephew.

3174 Son of Andrew Peterson and Martha Murdock. Married Ann Bunting Dennis, Mary Ann Patten, Ann Patten, Margaret Busby Crispen, Mary Thompson, Martha Thompson. Charles Shreeve Peterson Home 4035 W. 4100 N. Peterson Helped carve the first road through Weber Canyon, thus providing access for settlers. The community of Peterson was originally named Weber City and changed to Peterson in 1872 in honor of it's first settler. -Morgan Historical Society Website http://www.morganhistoricalsociety.com/sites/detail.asp?id=32 He was also the first Probate Judge for the county 1862. Tullidge's histories, (volume II) containing the history of all the northern ... By Edward William Tullidge PETERSON. "This hamlet lies about a half-mile south of the Weber, on a spur of the foot hills. It is watered by a small stream which has its source in the mountains above the town. The name it now bears was given in honor of its pioneer settler, Charles S. Peterson. Originally it was called Weber city. The family of Mr. Peterson must have been there as early as 1855, as his daughter, now the wife of David W. Tribe was born there in February of that year. The efforts of the colony to raise food in 1856 were neutralized by vast swarms of grasshoppers. This so reduced their provisions that the family were without bread for three months, and some of the time subsisted by digging wild roots. "Mr. Peterson appears to have been well adapted to pioneering, in those primitive times when the necessaries of life had to be supplied at the enormous cost of freighting goods 1000 miles in wagons, or be produced from the elements by home enterprise and industry. He greatly assisted the development of the country. He manufactured considerable leather, out of which Mr. Peter Neilson made covering for the feet of the settlers. He engaged in cattle and sheep raising. There was a carding machine at Ogden where his wool was made into rolls, from which the family manufactured cloth. Himself and sons helped out their neighbors by carrying on a blacksmith shop. At an early period a log school-house was built in which the young received such training as circumstances permitted. It was also the place where the magnates of Morgan county held their first court. The first post-office in the valley was at Weber City with Mr. Peterson as postmaster. "The ground on which the village is located was entered under the town site law in 1874, by Probate Judge, Jesse Haven. It now contains about 90 souls with but little in its natural surroundings to promise much increase. "Mr. Peterson appears to have been, from the first, the local leader in his settlement, but Thomas J. Thurston was bishop over the valley until 1863, when it was divided into two wards, and Bishop Peterson presided over Weber City, Mountain Green, Enterprise, North Morgan and Round Valley. Mr. Thurston remaining bishop of Milton, Littleton, South Morgan, Richville and Porterville." The History of Charles Shreeve Peterson Written by Ireta Anderson Oct. 28, 1936 Charles Shreeve Peterson, third child and second son of Andrew Peterson and Martha Murdock, was born July 18, 1818, at Mt. Holley, Burlington County, New Jersey. His early life and experiences can be told in his own interesting manner. "I was born of poor parentage. Father had to work for wages to support his family of ten children, and our opportunity for learning was very limited. I was compelled to work while very young to help make a living. At the age of ten years I hired out to one Joseph Stokes for two summers, to carry off brick and lay them to dry. This was called "off bearing". Two-thousand days of work, besides I had to turn over on the edge the two-thousand of the day before and to carry that many under a shed when dry. This was very hard work on my young growing back, and I think I never have entirely recovered from the strain. "My father was a wood-chopper and I worked with him during the winters. Helping to carry wood together and cord it for measurement. "At the age of fourteen, I apprenticed to Aaron Gaskill, a blacksmith, who with his family was very kind to me, but the work was no less hard and straining on my back, I had a great deal of showing to do, and a heavy sledge to swing, splitting bars of iron to forge our horseshoes, also forging axles for wagons, of which we made a large number. From the effects of all this hard and heavy work, which I had to perform while so young, I have suffered, more or less, ever since, in my chest and back. I went with Gaskill for about two years, when he went out of the business and took to farming. "I then worked for a Joseph Horner, a Quakers of the Hexite profession. Here I worked altogether in making edged tools, which was not such hard work. In about a year, Mr. Horner went out of the business. "Next I worked on a farm for Joseph K. Rogers. During the summer I received $10 per month, and in the winter I worked for my board and went to school three months. In this school I made the acquaintance of Miss Ann Dennis, daughter of Mary and Edward Dennis, who afterwards became my wife. "While I was at Mr. Gaskill's the great excitement over the "Falling Stars" took place. Mr. Gaskill and family were members of the Methodist Church and the church was within one-hundred and fifty yards of his house. This was in the town of Pemberton, Burlington County, New Jersey. About midnight the stars apparently began to fall thick and fast like flakes of snow through they resembled flakes of fire. Sometimes they would be like balls of fire and would strike the ground and burst into pieces. The flakes, when near the ground, would disappear like so much fire going out. Soon the church bells began to ring and the people came running together, the Methodists and Baptists to theirs, for these two sects constituted the professing part of the people. They exclaimed, "The judgment days have come, and the earth is about to be burned up." They carried on such a shouting and howling that they could be hear all over town. Mr. Gaskill came to my door and asked, "Are you not coming to church to pray? The end has come!" I replied, "No, it is too late to pray now if the end has come. I will stay here and take it as easy as I can." After pulling my head out of the window, to satisfy my curiosity and listening to the howlings of the Methodists, I went back to bed, went to sleep and awoke in the morning and found the people all there getting breakfast as usual, and the end not come." "I have since learned that at this very time and night, the Latter-Day Saints were being butchered and driven from their homes and land, which they had made and purchased from the government in the state of Missouri. "After finishing my three months schooling, I went to work for Joseph Wells, in Rancosas, Burlington County, New Jersey. Here I received $12 per month for one year. At the end of the year I hired to Mr. Wells for another year and in the spring of that year I married Ann Dennis (1837). We lived in a house on Mr. Well's farm and in May of the following year, my son, George Henry, was born. I stayed with Mr. Wells two years after that and about nineteen months after the birth of George Henry, Mary Ann was born on Christmas day in the same house near Shreeveville, three miles above Mt. Holley. "My work was farm work in the summer, and in the winter, hauling fencing from the cedar swamp, and wood and coal for fuel, and fertilizer for the land. This occupied my time from 4:00 A.M. until after dark at night. I lived in a house on the farm, rent free, and cow feed the year round, and $13 per month. In January 1842, Andrew, another son, was born. In the fall of this same year, while hauling coal, I met a man who lived near Burlington, who told me of a strange people, whom he had just visited in Illinois. He had become converted to their faith. His name was Matthew Ivory. His rehearsal of the faith and principles of their church gave me peculiar feelings that I could not throw off my mind. I do not believe in any of the numerous sects, although my parents were members of the Methodist Church, and were, I believe, honest in their convictions, but there was a difference in the beliefs of the different sects in regard to the meaning of the writings in the Bible, that I had become almost an infidel, although I had witnessed some strange manifestations. "As I had at two different times previous to talking with Mr. Ivory, while lying on my bed, reflected in the midnight hours, a light, brighter than noon-day sun, burst into my room, encircling a personage who looked me in the face, and passed out of the room, apparently down the stairs, and left the room as dark as dungeon, for so it was before the light entered, as there was a heavy thunderstorm in the progress at the time. "The rehearsal of the faith of this strange people and the explanation of scriptural passage by Mr. Ivory brought such a flood of light to my mind that I was led to marvel and wonder if this was not the light. By the light and personage in my room, I had strange, though pleasing and happy feelings, and they haunted me day and night, and I could not get rid of them. They brought such a flood of light to my mind - - passages of scripture came to me, one after another, confirming the doctrines of theses strange people, as related by Mr. Ivory. "In a short time I passed Mr. Ivory's again, and he came out from the field and commenced talking again, and said he had some pamphlets he wished me to read. I told him I would be pleased to read them. He said he would have them in the field when I returned with my load of coal. They were locked in his chest and dared not let his wife see them or know where they were. She was too bitter against those people and their doctrines, that she would have burned the pamphlets, had she found them. When I returned, Mr. Ivory had the pamphlets ready for me. They were headed, "The Gospel Reflector" by Benjamin Winchester. I then learned that these strange and hated people were Mormons, or Latter-day Saints. I took the pamphlets home and in the evening read while my wife sewed. We were so interested that midnight was upon us before we were aware of it, or scarcely a word had passed between us, and I bear witness that the Holy Ghost bore witness unto our spirits at nearly every sentence I read, that the doctrines and principles contained therein were true, and from God, and from that day to the present I have never doubted the truth of the Latter-day work. "It is at this writing, February 26, 1889, forty-seven years ago, in which time I have passed through many trying scenes and circumstances, and some that have been pleasant, all giving me and experience that I could not otherwise have received, and the end of the bitter part has not come yet. "I think it was in December I told Mr. Ivory to send to my house the first Latter-day Saint elder he saw, and he said there would be an elder up from Philadelphia in a few days. Accordingly, in a few days he sent Elder Joseph H. Newton to my home, and the additional light he brought to us led me to believe that he was the second light and person represented to me in my room. "I engaged the schoolhouse in Shreeveville for him to preach in. He preached two discourses and I told him we were ready and wanted to be baptized, and on the first Sunday in February, my wife and myself and Thomas Leary, a young man, were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In a short time there was a branch of the church organized with forty members called the Shreeveville Branch. I was the only one of my father's family that had joined the church. "Up to this time I did not have an enemy that I knew of, and was respected by everyone that knew me, as an honest, respectable man with a reasonable amount of intelligence. As soon as it was known, however, that I had been baptized, all turned against me, and I was ridiculed, called a fool and shunned by nearly everyone. My employer, Mr. Powell, called me into his sitting room to talk to me and to persuade me to give up Mormonism. He said it was a delusion. His brother-in-law, Mr. Gardener, assisted him in his efforts. Their families were also present. They told me I must give up my religion or else promise that I would never talk about it in the presence of their families; otherwise I would have to give up my position. I told them that to comply with their requests would be to act contrary to my honest convictions, and knowledge of the truth concerning those principles which I had received, and I could not do it. "I knew it would be a great sacrifice to me to give up my employment and the comfortable homes which I appreciated so much, but to give up the principles which I had received and which I knew to be truth would be a far greater sacrifice, and of the two I would choose the lesser. I talked to them in plainness and quoted many passages of scripture to sustain me in my conviction of the truth I had embraced, and bore testimony of them of these truths. "I then walked out to the stable, unharnessed the horses, cleaned them, and put everything in good order, returned to the house and told him what I had done, and that I was ready for a settlement. From his looks and actions my determination was a great surprise to him. He did not expect me to act so quickly, and had it not been for his brother-in-law, I think he would have re-called his decision. Gardener thought, however, I would yield rather than lose my position, but no position, wealth or earthly honors could move me from my convictions and purposes at that time as I knew too well the consequences. "I made preparations to move my family to Nauvoo. I worked wherever I could get a chance and sold out what household goods I could not take along. About this time, Brigham Young, George A. Smith, William Smith, and others came to our branch, traveling in the interests of the church, and gathering means for the temple, then being built in Nauvoo. Brigham Young asked me what I had to give towards the temple; I told him nothing but the labors of my hands. I explained my circumstances to him, that I sold everything I had to get money enough to go to Nauvoo, and that if I did not go now, I should soon not have any, as every means possible was employed by those around me to get my money away from me. He said, "You are a wise man. Many have let their opportunities pass and now are not able to go, and perhaps never will be". "The evening before we started, a meeting was called, in which we had a joyful time. I was called to give my farewell talk. While speaking, the spirit came upon me and I prophesied that inside of a year I would shoulder my gun and stand in defense of the Prophet and the Saints in Nauvoo. (This was fulfilled just as I predicted). After I had made the prediction I was afraid and wondered why I had been led to make it. On the first of August 1843 we bade farewell to father and mother, brothers and sisters, and to the Saints and took steamboat at Burlington to Philadelphia, from which place we were transported in canal boats to Johnstown. "We delayed about two weeks through the breaking of the walls in one of the locks. At another time a lady traveling in our company fell into the canal was about to be pulled under the boat and drowned, when I jumped in and rescued her. She was a Catholic, and when we arrived in Johnstown, we were invited to her father's house. He was a Catholic priest. He was very grateful to me for having saved his daughter and wanted to do all he could for our comfort. I had the privilege of preaching the gospel to him. We passed on up to St. Louis. The apostate, John C. Bennett, was on board, and when he heard we were Mormons he delivered a tirade against Joseph Smith and the Saints. He said the prophet would take my wife as soon as I arrived. I told him if he had taken all that had gone before us, he would have enough without taking mine. "We left for St. Louis, moved on up the river, and over the rapids, at the head of which lay Nauvoo. We landed at the upper stone house, a little above the main part of the city. I left my family and effects on the banks of the river, walked up town, inquired for Hyrum Smith, and was directed to his house. I introduced myself to him and told him I wanted to rent a house, and also to get some work, as I had no money to pay house rent, or get provisions for my family. He assisted me in every way possible, and after a while we were located in a small room and had five cents with which to start housekeeping. I found work at William Law's land, braiding hemp at one cent per pound. By hard work I could braid from seventy-five to one hundred pounds per day. Every tenth day I worked in the quarry getting out rock for the temple. I also worked at other jobs, such as splitting oak rails, pulling corn from the stock and etc. "I finally went to work in the lead mines at Calena, one hundred miles from Nauvoo. This work continued into the spring of 1844, when I returned to Nauvoo. I worked for my passage both ways by helping to gather wood for the steamboat. Soon after my arriving home, trouble commenced. The apostates, Hibees and Fosters were stirring up trouble which resulted in the destruction of the printing press at Nauvoo. "Shortly after this, the prediction which I made before leaving Shreeveville was fulfilled, for we were called out to defend the Mayor of Nauvoo (the Prophet Joseph Smith), the city council and all the citizens, for all were threatened with death and destruction. We were called out under the name of the Nauvoo Legion, which was organized under the state law, and we were under arms until the martyrdom of the prophet. With this incident we are familiar from history, but I want to say that the people mourned as I have never seen any people mourn, either before or since. All was silent as death and remained so until Brigham Young and others of the twelve, who were absent at the time of the martyrdom, returned, and found Sidney Rigdon putting in his claim to lead the church, but when Brigham Young stood up and commenced to talk, the spirit of Joseph was visible upon him and the voice of the good shepherd was known to all who heard him. Thus, joy and peace returned to the hearts of the saints, and all doubt as to the authority and leadership was removed. The work on the temple was rushed to completion and we had peace for a short time. "On September 12, 1844, my wife died and left me with four small children. This was a heavy sacrifice to me. She was a faithful wife and mother, and I felt her loss very keenly. Our youngest child was one year and five months old, lacking one day, when he died, and only three months and twenty three days old when his mother died, and our oldest was only six years, three months and twenty-three days old. It left a great amount of labor and care and responsibility upon me, in addition to my daily or nightly labor, as the fishing had to be done at night. Had it not been for my faith and knowledge of the gospel, I would have taken the children to their grandmother, but after careful reflection and seeking council from Brigham Young, I was advised to keep my children with me and go hunt for another wife. This I had not though of." This is as far as he proceeded with the account of this life. In the year 1846, he married Mary Ann Patten, daughter of William G. Patten and Elizabeth Harriet Cooper. This sacred ordinance was performed in the Nauvoo Temple. From this union three children were born, on the same day he had his former wife, Ann B. Dennis, sealed to him. He and his family passed through the mobbings and drivings heaped upon the Saints, and, after they were driving from their beautiful city, Nauvoo, began their dreary march across the plains, to a place they knew not. In obedience to a call made by President Brigham Young, he gave his team and wagon to assist the first company of Saints on their journey, and he remained behind to help make wagons to carry the rest of the Saints to a place of refuge. In 1849, he had Ann Patten, daughter of William Cornwell Patten and Juliana Bench sealed to him, by President Brigham Young, thirteen children blessed this union. He and his wife Mary Ann and children, joined the saints in the Great Salt Lake Valley in the fall of 1849, but his wife, Ann Patten, remained with her father's family, coming with them in 1850 to join her husband. On 10 January, 1852, he settled at Mountainvale (Alpine) in Utah County. Here a branch of the church was organized, with Elder Peterson as the president. In 1854 or 1855, he with his family, moved to Weber Valley; they were the first white settlers in the valley, and endured all the hardships incident to pioneering a new country, so far from civilization. He and the little colony succeeded in establishing a town in the Northwest part of the valley, which was known as Weber City, but the name was later changed to Peterson in honor of the pioneer settler. Sunday, October 12, 1860, he was set apart as presiding elder over the settlement in the northern part of the valley. On December 8, 1861, he was chosen and set apart as Bishop. For many years his ward comprised the settlements in the Mountain Green, Enterprise, Milton, and Peterson areas. The following is from "Tullidge's History of Utah": "Mr. Peterson appears to have been well adapted to pioneering in those primitive times, when the necessaries of life had to be supplied at the enormous cost of freighting goods a thousand miles in wagons, or be produced from the elements by home enterprises or industry. He greatly assisted the development of the country. He manufactured considerable leather, out of which Mr. Peter Nielson made coverings for the feet of the settlers. He also engaged in farming and in cattle and sheep raising. There was a carding machine at Ogden, where his wool was made into rolls from which his family manufactured cloth. Himself and sons helped their neighbors by carrying on a blacksmith shop. At an early period a log school-house was built in which the youth received such training as circumstances permitted. It was also the place where the magnates of Morgan County held their first court. The first post office in the valley was at Weber City, with Mr. Peterson as postmaster." The efforts of the colony to raise food in 1856 was neutralized by vast swarms of grasshoppers. This so reduced their provisions that the family were without bread for three months, and some of the time subsisted by digging wild roots. Mr. Peterson appeared to have been from the first local leader in the locality. By Act of the Territorial Legislature, approved January 17, 1862, Morgan County was organized out of a part of Davis County, by the Territorial Legislature, proceeded to organize the county court, on February 13, 1862. After being qualified, the court met at the office of the probate judge in Weber City, and February 17, 1862 at 9:00 A.M. for the purposes of completing the organization of the country. This Weber City, now Peterson, became the county seat. Later developments brought a change. In March 18, 1865, his term as probate judge expired. He was the people's representative in the annual sessions of the Territorial Legislature of 1864-1865 and 1865-1866. At the December term of the court, 1868, having been elected to the office of selectman, he succeeded John Robinson. In the fall and winter of 1869-1870, he made a visit to the native state, New Jersey, when he was for the last time, in mortality, beheld the face of his dear mother and those of his brothers and sisters who he had not seen for so many years. In the spring of 1870 he married Margaret Crispin. Two children resulted from the marriage. January 18, 1872 he married Mary Thompson, who bore him then children. At the September term of the county court for 1874, he again became a member of the court, succeeding Joseph R. Porter. After serving the people as bishop for about eighteen years, he was honorably released in the summer of 1878, and the fall of the same year he took his family and moved to the northern part of Box Elder County, Utah, now known as Fielding, thinking he could get his boys located on farms for themselves, but they were not satisfied with the country, so he returned to the old farm in the fall of 1880. in the meantime, two of his sons, Charles and Hyrum, had gone to Mesa, Arizona. In August, 1883, he, with his wives and all his unmarried children, again left the old home and moved to Mesa, Arizona. In 1884, he, in company with Apostle Brigham Young, President A.F. McDonald and a number of others, went down into Mexico, conferred with the Mexican government and negotiated for some land for the Mormon settlers in Mexico, and also visited the Yaqui Indians. They held a conference with their leading men and presented them with a few copies of the Book of Mormon. They were gone about two months. After this he labored in the Indian Mission, near Mesa, Arizona, with Elders Henry C. Rogers and Charles H. Allen, until the fall of 1885, when he moved to Corralitos, in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. Here he resided for about two years, when he returned to Mesa, Arizona, this was his home until his death, which occurred at ten minutes to one o'clock on the 26th day of September, 1889. He was true to the truth and faithful to the last. When he felt that his time and had come, he called those of his children around him that were living in that vicinity, blessed them and bore his testimony to them. He sent his love and blessings to those who were not present, and admonished all of his family to be faithful in the gospel and to use the talents with which the Lord had blessed them for the good of their fellow men and for the building of the kingdom. Thus passed to his reward one of God's noblemen. * * * * * * * * * * The above account of the life of Charles Shreeve Peterson was found in the trunk belonging to his daughter, Mary Ann Peterson Stevens, after her death. One of his sons wrote the latter part of his life story, but it is not known which son it was. * * * * * * * * * * The following accounts of incidents in the lives of Charles Shreeve Peterson and Roswell Stevens, are taken from the History of Morgan County, compiled and written by Mrs. Mary Chadwick: One day while getting timber from the mountain tops, in the vicinity of Centerville, Davis County, Thomas Jefferson Thurston, went over far enough to see the beautiful Weber Valley situated on the river by that name. It was early summer and that little well-watered and well-wooded valley was in strong contrast with the hot, dry, and almost barren Salt Lake Valley, and it reminded him of his old home in Ohio. He felt he must go over and explore it. He talked of it until he got two of his friends to go with him They went over the mountains into the valley and camped there three days. It looked like a paradise to them. There was however, one serious obstacle, the valley was surrounded by high and rugged mountains, and the narrow canyon through which the Weber River flowed, seemed the only opening through which the entrance might be made. But no difficulty seemed insurmountable to Mr. Thurston, and finally one man, Charles Sreeve Peterson. With his two sons and his son-in-law, Roswell Stevens, said they would go. So in the winter of 1855, they went to the canyon and camped, working constantly until they could get through into the valley with their wagons. It was truly a great undertaking with their primitive ways of road making. Their tools consisted of picks, shovels, and crowbars, with small plows. In some of the narrow places they had to go up on the side of the mountains and loosen large rocks and boulders and roll them down into the river below to make a foundation on which to build a road. They finally got through what Mr. Peterson and Mr. Stevens settled at a place now called "Peterson". Of the first company of pioneers who arrived in Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847, at least two were early residents of Morgan County. In the year 1855, Charles Shreeve Peterson, with his family and son-in-law, Mr. Roswell Stevens, settled in the northwestern part of the valley. A daughter of Mr. Stevens, the late Mrs. Daniel Heiner, was born there in December of 1855, and she was the first child born in Morgan County. The little colony succeeded in establishing a town which was known as Weber City; the name was afterward changed to Peterson, in honor of the original settler. Mr. Peterson's home was where Albert Whitear's residence now is (1930). A tannery was built there by Phillip Pugely of Salt Lake and operated by Mr. Peterson. The dye used in this vat was made from pine tree bark. It was used in the manufacture of leather from which Mr. Peter Nielson made shoes for the early settlers. Mr. Peterson, with his son, also carried on a blacksmith shop. Mr. Joshua Williams started a sawmill in Peterson at a very early date and Roswell Stevens also had a sawmill in that vicinity. In 1861, the first farming was done in Enterprise. Roswell Stevens had made a claim there and in 1862 built the first house there. This completes the incidents in the lives of Roswell Stevens and Charles Shreeve Peterson as recorded in the History of Morgan County. * * * * * * * * * * * Reference to this is found in the Salt Lake Genealogy Library under (Utah 31 - Vol. 23 - pages 87-104) Family links: Parents: Andrew Peterson (1793 - 1860) Martha A Peterson (1794 - 1878) Spouses: Mary Thompson Peterson (1849 - 1939)* Ann Bunting Dennis Peterson (1818 - 1844)* Ann Patten Peterson (1831 - 1909)* Children: George Henry Peterson (1838 - 1904)* Mary Ann Peterson Stevens (1839 - 1924)* Andrew Peterson (1840 - 1910)* Nancy Ann Peterson Hales (1852 - 1926)* Charles Peterson (1854 - 1938)* Sarah Ann Peterson Tribe (1856 - 1937)* Hyrum Smith Peterson (1860 - 1913)* Julia Anna Peterson Richards (1862 - 1938)* Herber Kimball Peterson (1866 - 1930)* Fannie Busby Peterson Allen (1871 - 1929)* Mary Elizabeth Peterson Schule (1873 - 1926)* Harriet Peterson Sabin (1874 - 1962)* Martha Ann Peterson Stow (1875 - 1934)* William Henry Peterson (1880 - 1967)* Laura May Peterson Johnson (1886 - 1981)* Sreeve Peterson (1888 - 1976)* *Calculated relationship Burial: City of Mesa Cemetery Mesa Maricopa County Arizona, USA Plot: 0073-1-1 Created by: Anjanette S.

3175 Son of Apostle Orson Pratt and Adelia Ann Bishop.
Salt Lake Dec. 31--Lorus Pratt, 68, Utah artist, died Sunday at his home 119 Harvard Avenue.
He was born in the early settlement of the Salt Lake valley in 1855.
Married Harriet West Alzina Wheeler, 27 Nov. 1879, Salt Lake City, Utah.
Children - Lorus Orson Pratt, Lora Illeen Pratt, Zina Belle Pratt, Lola Adelia Pratt, Merna Harriet Pratt, Marva Pratt, Thelia Pratt, Josephine Pratt, Clifton Jared Pratt, Alton Myron Pratt.
Lorus Pratt was a faithful LDS church worker all his life and filled two foreign missions and also labored for about two years in Missouri and Pennsylvania. In 1890 he was called to continue his studies in art and went to Paris, France, where he prepared himself to decorate the LDS temple. He was privileged to decorate in the first four temples built in Utah and was one of those who had charge of the decorating and painting in the Salt Lake temple. He also was active as a ward worker, and filled many home missions. He left behind his masterpieces in the world of art. 
Pratt, Lorus Bishop (I107494)
 
3176 Son of Cyril and Sally or Sarah Tiffany Call married Mary Flint and later joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. "He was closely associated with the Prophet Joseph [Smith, 1805-1844], and with the saints was driven from his home. He had a great love for the Prophet and did all he could to protect him from the mobs." Smith once said of Call: "There is Anson. He shall go [to the West] and shall assist in building cities from one end of the country to the other." Call started West in a company led by Brigham Young, the second president of the LDS Church. Call came to Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1848. He helped settle Bountiful, with 2nd wife Ann Mariah Bowen the Little Salt Lake Valley, "Pauvant Valley" (Fillmore), Box Elder and Davis Counties, all in Utah, and Carson Valley, Nevada.
In 1856 President Brigham Young had a rescue party (which Anson was in) rescue the Martin/Willie Handcart Company. There he met his third wife Margaretta Unwin Clark. Also the fourth wife was in the Willie party.

Added note:
Some records claim Anson was the Stake President of the Bountiful area, but his g g g granddaughter, Pamela Call Johnson, has not been able to verify this. He did serve as a counselor to the Stake President at the time of his death. He was the Bishop in Bountiful twice. One record also stated he was a Bishop in southern Utah.
Research shows that William Reed Smith was the Stake President when Davis Stake was organized, and he served from 1877-1894. William's life story records that during 1877 several new Stakes were created. A Conference was scheduled for June 16 and 17 to be held at the Farmington Church House to create a stake in Davis County. Brigham Young, along with other General Authorities, attended these meetings. The names he proposed were William R. Smith as President, Christopher Layton as first counselor and Anson Call as second counselor.
John W Hess followed William.
He wrote: “Today William R. Smith, President of the Davis Stake of Zion, died after a severe, lingering sickness of six months, of cancer in the intestines. This was a severe shock to his family and to all the people of the stake, as he was a first-class man, a good president, a good father, and a friend to all good people; his faithful memory will live in the hearts of the people”
John Hess took William’s place with Hyrum Grant as first counselor. He does not name a second counselor.
Joseph Hyrum Grant followed John.
Joseph Hyrum Grant was the Bishop of the West Bountiful ward before he was made a counselor to John W. Hess in the Stake Presidency. By 1912 he was the Stake President. He had failing health for many years but became seriously ill in the few days prior to his death. He lost his hearing which caused him to request to be released as stake president. At the time of Joseph's death, he was a Patriarch for the North and South Davis Stake.

There is no place in this timeline for Anson Call to have been the president of the stake.

Note: John Partridge's gravestone inscription uses one of the common forms of the Latin term "Aetatis" to state his age at death. That is, on the day John died he was 72 years old, and Aetatis (Æ, "Aged," in the XX year of his Age, etc.) 73. Thus, the missing digit in the Duxbury vital records for the year of his birth is Nov. 29, 165[8].
 
Partridge, John (I56647)
 
3178 Son of John (Jan) Vosburgh (1680-1775) and Cornelia Knickerbocker Vosburgh (1695-1738). He was Christened on July 29, 1738 at Linlithgo, Columbia County, New York.
He is noted for being a veteran of the Revolutionary War. According to Daughters of the American Revolution Lineage Book : NSDAR : Volume 148 : 1919, page 307. "Martin Vosburgh was a patriot of New York, who signed the Articles of Association; also served as a private under Colonels Graham and Hopkins in the 6th Dutchess County militia."
He married Hannah Ashley (1744-1764) (a daughter of Colonel John Ashley and Hannah Hogeboom) of Sheffield, Mass. on Jan. 11,1764. She died June 30, 1764. Her gravestone was noted in two notable books for the history of Tivoli. She rests on the same sandy bluff behind St. Paul's Church as Martin's Father John (Jan) Vosburgh b. Nov 6, 1680 d.

Deceased was a son of the late Parley P. Pratt whose name is inseparably associated with the early settlement of Utah and the establishment of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The news was a great shock to his many relatives over the state. His brother Nephi Pratt who is employed in the office of the Improvement Era at Salt Lake City and his family went to Winter Quarters Monday morning to attend the funeral.

Deceased had been a resident of Spring Glen of this county for a number of years when he has engaged in farming and mining.

3191 Sophia Caroline Keller was born January 18,1861 in Box Elder County, Utah to Ane Kirstine Larsen (Anglicized Anna Christina Larsen) and Jens Mogensen Kjøller (Anglicized James Morgan Keller).

Sophia’s mother and father were both converts to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and immigrants from Denmark. Anna married James, who practiced polygamy, as the third of his eventual five plural wives. Sophia spent her youth in Brigham City and Mantua, Utah as a part of very large family with 13 younger brothers and sisters and 27 half-brothers and half-sisters from her father’s other wives, a number of whom died in infancy.

After finishing her schooling in Brigham City, Sophia joined her family in Mink Creek, Idaho where she taught school and worked as a dairywoman. While there she met William Orson Pratt, a young man from Franklin Idaho and they were married October 5,1883 in the Endowment House in Salt Lake City. Sophia and William worked and farmed successively in Mink Creek, Wilford, and Plano, Idaho.

Over time, they became the parents of ten children, seven girls and three boys, the youngest of whom, Merlin, passed away at age 15 months. In 1901, tragedy struck when their oldest daughter, Alice Delilah, was killed in a carriage accident shortly before her graduation.

In 1902, William was asked to go on a mission for the church to West Virginia, leaving Sophia the sole provider for the family for two years. This she accomplished by selling garden produce, chickens and eggs. She also was a good seamstress and pastry cook. These were trying times, with illness and hardships, but the children were able to attend the Academy at Rexburg.

After William’s return from his mission, the family moved to Albion, Idaho where they purchased a large ranch and raised hay and cattle. William was elected Cassia County Sheriff and held the post for sixteen years. When the County Seat office was moved to Burley in 1913, Mr. Sophia and William sold their holdings at Albion and built a new home in Burley on Overland Avenue. The younger members of the family attended the Idaho State Normal Academy.

Sophia was quiet by nature and ever thoughtful of the welfare of others, especially those who were less fortunate than she. With the early death of two of her daughters and other difficult circumstances, Sophia spent much time caring for many of her grandchildren.

After finishing his forth term as sheriff, William began investing in a series of businesses, many of which investments proved unwise and left the family without savings. On March 2, 1923, William was killed in a mining accident in Nevada, where he’d gone to work.

After William’s death, Sophia lived with her daughter Vada, Her later years were spent quietly, caring for her family and raising flowers and vegetables which she always shared with others.

Sophia passed away December 3, 1944 in Redlands, California and was buried in the Pleasant View Cemetery at Burley, Idaho.

James Burt, although not an original proprietor of Taunton, was there quite early, and was appointed surveyor of roads in March, 1645 as well as in 1654.
In 1638 we find a Richard and James Burt among the 758 persons in Barbados, West Indies, owning ten acres or more of land. Although many settlers in the Taunton area had initially left England for the West Indies and stayed but for a few years before moving up to Massachusetts, it is unlikely that these are the same two Burt's.
James took the oath of fidelity in 1657, but does not appear to have been admitted as a freeman.
He probably was not wholly in accord with the prevailing religious opinions here, for we find that in 1648 or '49 he received a power of attorney from Francis Doughty, the minister, who was compelled to go away from Taunton for opposing the formation of the first church here, and for other misdemeanors.

Mr. Doughty probably regarded James Burt as being more friendly to him than some others, and therefore authorized him to convey the land he owned here.
It is also significant that several generations of James Burt's descendants were staunch adherents of the church of England.
His home lands were on the westerly side of the Taunton river, and appear to have been the premises he purchased of Thomas Brayman, which were the occasion of a singular lawsuit recorded in Plymouth Court Records, vol. 7, p. 74; October 4, 1655: "James Burt complained against Thomas Brayman in an action of treaspas on the case, to the damage of fifty pound, for molesting and hindering him from imploying of an house and land bought of said Brayman. The jury find for the plaintife, and give him his bargaine, and thirty shillings dammage, and the cost of the suite, which comes to James Burt complained against Thomas Brayman in an action of treaspas on the case, to the damage of fifty pound, for molesting and hindering him from imploying of an house and land bought of said Brayman. The jury find for the plaintife, and give him his bargaine, and thirty shillings dammage, and the cost of the suite.

The premises of James were at "Sandy Hill," and were described in 1681 as being "down below Mr. Brown's brook, on the southwest side of the cartway going to Thomas Lincoln's house, called Thomas Lincoln's cartway," now known as Highland street, and doubtless could be located at the present time.
In the division of land in 1659, James Burt claimed upon his own rights, and under the peculiar rule of "two acres to the lot, two acres to the head, and two acres to the shilling," he was entitled to and doubtless received thirty-eight acres, he having six heads in his family and paying twelve shillings rates or taxes. In 1668, he was one of the proprietors of the Taunton North Purchase, comprising the present towns of Easton, Mansfield and the larger part of Norton; and of the South Purchase in 1672, consisting of the present town of Dighton.

Of James Burt's domestic relations, our information is quite limited. From the Plymouth records we learn that Anna, wife of James Burt, died August 17, 1665.
The place of his burial is probably like that of many others of the first settlers, an unmarked grave in the old "Neck o'Land" burying ground.
