| 402 | From Jason Lee Edwards (https://brownlowfamilyorigins.com/john-brownlow-c-1569-1616/) John Brownlow, son of Richard Brownlow and Helen Roper, was born about 1569 in Nottingham, England. He died about 1616 in County Armagh, Northern Ireland. John Brownlow and Duglas Robarts were married on 30 Apr 1589 in St. Mary’s, Nottingham. Duglas Robarts, daughter of John Robarts, was born in 1571 in Epworth, Lincolnshire. She was baptized on 2 Sep 1571 in St. Andrew’s, Epworth, Lincolnshire. She died in Feb 1591/2 at the age of 21 in Epworth, Lincolnshire. Duglas was buried on 23 Feb 1591/2 in St. Andrew’s, Epworth, Lincolnshire. John Brownlow and Duglas ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ From The Brownlow Family and the Rise of Lurgan from Review- Journal of Craigavon Historical Society Vol. 1 No. 1 by K. Clendinning The town of Lurgan owes its existence and much of its success to the family of Brownlow. The surname is also written Bromloe and Bromley in state papers. In 1567 the Mayor of Nottingham was one John Brownlow, a Miller of Basfod in Nottingham. He also held this office in 1568/9, 1575/6, 1589/90, and 1591/92. He died in 1592 leaving his son John Brownlow his corn mill at Basfod. John married a daughter of Douglas Robards of Heanor in Derby and went to live in Epworth in Lincolnshire. His wife died and was buried with his first son John, leaving a second son William, baptised October 1591. Shortly after the death of his wife, John Brownlow returned to Nottingham, but held his house and lands at Epworth till 1615. During the plantation of Ulster by James I, John Brownlow offered himself as an undertaker of lands in O'Neilland, stating that he was worth £150 per annum and that he wanted 2,000 acres. He was granted the middle proportion of Doughcarron containing 1,500 acres at a total rent of £8 to hold for ever, May 29th 1610. In the maps of Escheated Counties of Ireland, Doughcarron appears violet, the colour used to distinguish those of middle size and occupies the northern portion of the ancient territory of Clan Brassil stretching along the shore of Lough Neagh. Excluded from this grant was the balliboe of Shankill and half the balliboe Aghnacloy or Aghecloghie containing 90 acres, this was set aside for the church. On this map there is in the townland of Shankill, a roofless church surrounded by trees - Shankill - meaning "Old Church". John Brownlow's son William was also granted 1,000 acres in the Manor of Ballynamoney, June 18th, 1610. This portion lay on the southern shore of Lough Neagh, stretching from the upper Bann eastward to Doughcarron and southward to John Machett's part of Kerhonan. By 1611, the Brownlows were residing in the district and started to build two bawns having brought six carpenters, one mason, a tailor and workmen. In 1619, a fair town had arisen on Doughcarron consisting of forty two houses, streets all paved, two water-mills and a windmill. John Brownlow died about 1616 and his son William was regranted the lands at Ballynamoney and Doughcarron by letters patent under Seal of Charles II to form Manor of Brownlows Derry 29th June 1629. | Brownlow, John (I1320)

| 403 | From Jason Lee Edwards (https://brownlowfamilyorigins.com/john-brownlowc-1517-1592/) Mayor John Brownlow was born about 1517, probably in Derbyshire, to Henry Brownlow of Biggin and his wife Margaret. Both his year of birth and his connection with Derbyshire are evident in an affidavit he made in 1581 concerning a roadway near Heanor in Derbyshire. In the document, he described himself as being sixty-three years old and an alderman of Nottingham.1 It appears that John Brownlow spent his early years in Derbyshire where he married Anne Roper about 1540. She was born about 1522 in Derbyshire to Thomas Roper and his wife who was a daughter of Thomas Partridge of King’s Bromley, Staffordshire.2 Shortly after their marriage, John Brownlow, and Anne his wife, moved to Nottingham where he was a rope maker by trade. The first mention of him in Nottingham was on 1541 when the mayor and aldermen paid him for fishing line.3 In 1547, he purchased a house on Long Row and King Street that had belonged to Dale Abbey before the dissolution. Interestingly, Dale Abbey was located close to Heanor in Derbyshire. This was described in a deed from Henry Fossebrooke, gentleman, to John Brouwneley, roper, as “a tenement or burgage on the Longrowe, abutting upon the King’s highway, called ‘the Merke Steede’ on the south and the common ditch of the town, ‘the towne dike of Notyngham’ on the north; which tenement lately belonged to Dale Abbey.”4 In 1551, he was chosen as one of the sheriffs of Nottingham. He served in that capacity for one year. In 1560, he was appointed the bridge master of the Trent Bridge. John Brownlow was increasingly involved in local politics, and he was first elected mayor of Nottingham in 1567. He was reelected in 1568, 1575, 1582, and 1589. He also served as an alderman of the city from 1573 to 1575, 1576 to 1582, and 1591.5 St. Mary’s, Nottingham During his time as mayor, the annals of Nottingham record several interesting items. On 17 November 1575, one of the Earl of Huntingdon’s men brought an ape to his house, and on 13 March 1576, the Officers of the Queen were entertained at John Brownlow’s house.6 In 1582, a juggler was paid for entertaining Mayor John Brownlow.7 Throughout his time as a local dignitary, John Brownlow continued to oversee his rope making operations, and he was paid several times for fishing lines. In 1583, he was paid thirteen shillings for sixty-three pounds of new rope for the clock and bell tower of St. Mary’s church.8 As mentioned, John Brownlow married Anne Roper sometime around 1540. They were both mentioned in the 1579 will of her father Thomas Roper. In his will, he made reference to “John Brownloe and Anne Brownloe my daughter.”9 She died in 1588 when the records of St. Mary’s church show that eighteen shillings was paid “for the buryall of Mestress Brownley in the churche.”10 Also in 1588, John Brownlow contributed £25 for national defenses against the Spanish Armada.11 On 4 August 1589, John Brownlow married secondly to Anne Arthur at St. Mary’s church.12 Mayor John Brownlow died in September of 1592, as he made his will 13 September 1592 and was replaced as alderman on 25 September 1592.13 14 At the time of his death, the plague was making an appearance in Nottingham, and the month before his death the town took up money for the plague stricken.15 Unfortunately, the burial registers for 1592 are not extant at St. Mary’s, but his will does request that he be buried in the church of St. Mary’s “rygt before the place where devyne service is accustomed to be red or sounge.”16 His second wife survived him, and she married Francis Rowlston 5 February 1593/4, at St. Mary’s, Nottingham. He died in January of 1616/7 and was buried 11 January 1616/7, in St. Mary’s. Ann Arthur Brownlow Rowlston made her will on 6 June 1623. It was proved 9 October 1623. Her will mentions no relations beyond a nephew Nicholas Caulton and a brother George Warbae. 1 Journal of the Derbyshire Archaeological and Natural History Society, Vol. 38, 1916, page 188.

THE first of the Brownlow family to obtain any position of prominence was Richard Brownlow, Chief Prothonotary of the Court of Common Pleas for forty-seven years during the reigns of Elizabeth, James L, and Charles L, who from the considerable emoluments of his office acquired a large fortune, which he spent in the purchase of Belton, near Grantham, and other estates in Lincolnshire, a great part of which came to the Custs through the marriage of Anne Brownlow, the heiress of her family, to Sir Richard Cust, as mentioned in the last chapter. The ancestry of Richard Brownlow cannot be traced with any certainty beyond his father John Brownlow of High Holborn and his grandfather Christopher Brownlow of Derbyshire, who lived at the end of the fifteenth or beginning of the sixteenth century. At this time, or a few years later, numerous branches of the Brownlow family were living in Lancashire, Derbyshire, and Nottinghamshire, to some of whom Richard Brownlow was probably related. The family seems long to have existed in England, for in 1325 a certain. William de Brounley was one of those who accompanied Edward 11. on an expedition to Flanders.* All that can be done now is to mention shortly those branches of the Brownlow family with whom it appears likely that Richard Brownlow was connected, and we should note here that the name appears spelt in an endless manner of ways in the older records, of which Brownley, Brounley, and Bronley are common varieties. In Derbyshire a certain Henry Brownlow owned land at Biggin in Duffield parish in 1526, according to the Records of the Duchy of Lancaster whose descendants were still at Biggin in 1601,† and some of the family lie buried in the neighbouring Church of Kirk Ireton. According to a pedigree in the "Visitation of Lincolnshire for 1634" there was also a John Brownlow of "Berrisford, co. Derby," about 1550, who had a son Henry Brownlow and a grandson Nathaneele Brownlow of Belton in the Isle of Axholm who there is reason to think was related to the Prothonotary Brownlow, as he stood godfather to one of his grandchildren in 1632, as will be shewn later. It seems quite possible that Christopher Brownlow was a brother or near relation of Henry Brownlow of Biggin, and that John Brownlow of Berrisford was also of the same family. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Rymer's 'Foedera,' vol. iv., p. 161. † 'Calendar Ducatus Lancastriae,' vol. i., p. 188; vol. ii., pp. 31-144; vol. iii., p. 413. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20 RECORDS OF THE CUST FAMILY. The Brownlow family, if originally of Derbyshire, appear to have early migrated into Nottinghamshire, and the many branches of the Brownlows in this county appear to have always considered themselves to belong to the same family as the Prothonotary, and to have the right to bear his arms, Or, an escutcheon within an orle of martlets sable. This was first brought to my notice in a manuscript book compiled in 1855 by the late Rev. John Brownlow, a Roman Catholic priest, which his cousin the late Bishop of Clifton kindly lent to me. The object of this book was to prove his descent and that of the Bishop from Christopher Brownlow of Derbyshire already mentioned. Although there was much that was interesting in this book respecting the Brownlow family, including extracts from many parish registers and other records, yet it failed in my opinion to prove this descent.* Mr. Brownlow was only able to prove his descent as far as a certain Richard Brownlow of Ordsall, called "Welbeck Brownley," who was baptized at Nottingham October 24th, 1569, and buried at Tuxford December 26th, 1639. Mr. Brownlow was persuaded that this Welbeck Brownley was the son of "Brian Bromley" of Ordsall, who wits married there on July 26th, 1568, to Margaret Graunt, and he mentions that Ordsall, which is a mile from Retford, was three miles from Haughton Park, of which place, as we shall see later, Christopher Brownlow's wife of the name of Lee was the heiress. It is impossible to say whether this hypothesis of Mr. Brownlow's has any foundation beyond the fact that the Brownlows of Ordsall and Retford used the arms of the Prothonotary, which were formerly to be seen in Ordsall Church on the monument of Richard Brownlow of Thrumpton, grandson of Welbeck Brownley, who died January 31 St, 1706. Although these arms have now disappeared, it is a fact that at the present time there exists, belonging to the Church, a large silver flagon, 13 inches high, on which is the same Brownlow coat with the greyhound crest, with this inscription:- The Gift of Mrs ANN TURNELL Widd: Only Daughter & Heir of Mr RICHD BROWNLOW of THRUMPTON decd for the Use of the Communicants of the Parish Church of ORDSALL for Ever. Mrs. Turnell's monument states that she died November 6th, 1727.† Another branch of the Brownlows of Nottinghamshire settled in Ireland early in the seventeenth century, which is now represented by Lord Lurgan. The Brownlows of Lurgan always believed themselves to be related to the Brownlows of Belton near Grantham,‡ and for many -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * A pedigree of the Bishop of Clifton's family will be found at the end of this chapter. † This inscription has been kindly furnished by the Rev. L. Walter Stott, LL.D., Rector of Ordsall, who says that the arms of Brownlow are no longer to be seen on Richard Brownlow of Thrumpton's monument. ‡ This family tradition was told me many years ago by my aunt Lady Elizabeth Brownlow, whose mother Elizabeth, Countess of Darnley, was one of the Brownlows of Lurgan. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21 THE BROWNLOW FAMILY. years carried the same arms and crest. In 1839, when a peerage was granted to Mr. Charles Brownlow of Lurgan, it being found impossible to prove his right to bear these arms, the Heralds only granted him the old Brownlow coat with a difference in the field, viz., Per pale Or and Argent, an escutcheon within an orle of martlets sable. This Irish branch can be traced back to John Brownlow of Epworth and Nottingham, who was possibly a son of John Brownlow, Mayor of Nottingham several times between 1567 and 1590.* Be this at it may, young John Brownlow was married at St. Mary's Church, Nottingham, by Archdeacon Welles on April 30th, 1589, to Douglas, daughter of Thomas Roper of Heanor, co. Derby.† John and Douglas Brownlow went to live at Epworth in the Isle of Axholm, co. Lincoln, where we learn from the parish register that their eldest soil John was buried January 17th, 1589-90, and that their second soli William (afterwards Sir William Brownlow, Knight) was baptized October 16th, 1591. Here also we find that the young mother died a few months later, and was buried as "Duglas wife of John Bronley " February 23rd, 1591-2. After his wife's death John Brownlow would appear to have returned to Nottingham; but it was not till twenty-three years later that he sold his house at Epworth. In the Epworth Manor Court Rolls on April 13th, 1615, appears this entry:- "John Brownlow and William Brownlow his son surrendered a messuage and curtilages near the Court House in Epworth to Thomas Poste." Long before this John Brownlow and his son William, taking with them "six carpenters, one mason, a taylor, and six workmen," had gone to Ireland as "Undertakers in the Plantation of Ulster,"‡ where they obtained grants of the forfeited O'Neil lands of 1500 acres at Doughcoran and 1000 acres at Ballememony on the south shore of Lough Neagh.§ In a list of the Undertakers who left England in "Sir Francis Anderson's Consort we find the name of "John Brownlowe of Nottingham, 150l. per annum."|| John Brownlow seems to have died before 1619, when William Brownlow was in possession of both Doughcoran and Ballymemony. In 1629 Sir William Brownlowe, who had been knighted in 1622, obtained a grant of these lands, "to be erected into a manor to be called the Manor -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * See Records of the Borough of Nottingham; Historical MSS Commission; Duke of Rutland's Papers, vol. i., p. 142. † A Roper pedigree will he found at tile end of this chapter. In a Chancery Suit dated November 23rd, 1600, John Brownlow and hi,, brother-in-law Robert Roper, Counsellor-at-law, are plaintiffs. The suit was respecting the trusts of the will of their uncle Robert Roper, which was proved in 1598-9 by his widow, afterwards the wife of John Cholmeley. William Brownlow, uncle to John Brownlow, is mentioned in this suit. (Chancery Proceedings, Elizabeth, B, b. 21-63). ‡ Carew Papers, vol. 630, p. 42. § Calendar Irish Patent Rolls, 8 James L, part 2. || Calendar State Papers (Ireland), James L, 1610, p. 549. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 22 RECORDS OF THE CUST FAMILY. of Brownlow Derry."* Sir William, who married Elinor, daughter and coheir of John O'Dogherty of Derry, died January 2nd, 1661-2, and was succeeded by his grandson Arthur Chamberlain, the son of his eldest daughter Lettice by her first husband Patrick Chamberlain, who assumed the name and arms of Brownlow, and from him the present Lord Lurgan is descended. The Brownlows of West Stockwith, Newark, and Belton in the Isle of Axholm, all apparently closely connected together, remain to be mentioned. William Brownlow, who lived on the banks of the Trent at West Stockwith in 1593,† married, at his parish church of Misterton in 1575, Dorcas Heryng, probably the daughter of Alderman Thomas Heryng of Newark, by whom he had two sons: John, who seems to have lived at Newark, of which place a John Brownlow was Alderman in 1612, who was buried there February 20th, 1626-7, as "Mr. John Brownley, Alderman." Arthur, the other son, is not mentioned after his 'baptism in 1579, but we may remark that his uncommon Christian name only appears once more in the Bro~vnlow family in the person of Arthur Chamberlain, the grandson of Sir William Brownlow of Lurgan, and suggests some possible connection between them. About the same time, a few miles to the north in Lincolnshire, there was living at Belton in the Isle of Axholm another William Brownlow, who on March 2nd, 1600-1601, had, with his wife Joan and his son and heir Vincent, licence to alienate seventy acres of pasture at Owston, about five miles from Belton.‡ Joan Brownlow must have died soon after this, as her husband William Brownlow was married a second time in Belton Church February 3rd, 1602-3, to Margery Dowgood. On this occasion he settled oil his second wife four cottages and fourteen acres of land, which after her death in 1617 reverted to his son by his first wife Vincent. William Brownlow was buried at Belton March 9th, 1615-16. Vincent Brownlow his son seems to have been in some way connected with Newark, as he was married there on May 24th, 1604, to Alice, daughter of Robert Parkinson of Foston. The Inquisition taken after his death, August 21st, 1623, shews that lie was seized of a capital messuage called Bracton and twenty-three acres of land in Belton, which was held at the date of the Inquisition by Alice Brownlow his widow, who afterwards married Nathaneele Brownlow. Vincent Brownlow left a son William, eight years of age, who died before 1655, when his sister Joan (who was married first to Robert Rudhall and secondly to Daniel Whitehead), with her daughter Frances Rudhall, sold the four cottages and fourteen acres of land which had come to her from her father Vincent Brownlow. Vincent Brownlow would appear to have left his property to his wife for life, for when the Visitation of 1634 took place this property was in the hands of -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Morrin's Irish Patent Rolls, p. 454. † 'Cal. Ducat. Lancastriae,' vol. iii., p. 315. ‡ From information supplied to me by the late Mr. Arthur Larken. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 23 THE BROWNLOW FAMILY. Nathaneele Brownlow already mentioned, who, had married Vincent's widow Alice Parkinson. It is very likely that Vincent and Nathaneele were cousins, as one of the sons of the latter was named Vincent. In 1632 "Mr Nathaneele Brownlowe of Belton in the isle of Axholm" is mentioned by Sir William Brownlow, Bart., in his family Bible as the godfather to his seventh child Katherine. After 1634 nothing more is heard about the Brownlows of the Isle of Axholm excepting that "Alice Brownloe, widow," was buried August 28th, 1644, shewing that Nathaneele was already dead. After considering all that can be found respecting the early history of the Brownlow family as connected with Richard Brownlow the Prothonotary, we are forced to the conclusion that nothing definite can be said as to whence John Brownlow of High Holborn, his father, came, nor as to which branch of the family he belonged. One interesting question as to the surname of the wife of John Brownlow, and also that of his mother, remains to be considered before proceeding in the next chapter to the better-known history of his son the Prothonotary. What has been generally received as to Christopher Brownlow of Derbyshire's wife is the statement in the Visitation pedigrees of Lincolnshire and Middlesex that she was an heiress of the name of Lee, described as of "Aughton Castle in the co. of Derby," whose arms were Argent, a fess between two leopards' faces in chief and a crescent in base sable. Some copies of the Visitation of 1592 in the British Museum give her arms with a third leopard's face in base instead of a crescent, and one copy of the Visitation of Lincolnshire in 1562 describes her as of "Haughton Castle in com. Nottingham."* No place of the name of Aughton seems to have existed in Derbyshire, nor can any family of the name of Lee be traced as living there, while it is certain that a family of this name held the manor of Southwell in Nottinghamshire in 1542,† close to which is the village of Halloughton or Halton, and at no great distance is a Haughton or Hawton near Retford and Newark. It would therefore seem probable that this Lee heiress was one of the Southwell family. This idea is strengthened by the fact that Segar, in his grant of arms to Richard Brownlow in 1602, gives the arms of this lady as Gules, on a jess cotised or three leopards' faces of the field, closely resembling the arms mentioned by Thoroton ‡as being on Gervas Lee, Esq., of Southwell's monument in the neighbouring church of Norwell, Azure, on a jess cotised or three leopards' heads gules.§ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Harleian MSS. 1190,1550,1551. † Edward Lee, Archbishop of York, granted to the King his manor of Southwell in 1542. His name was on a pillar called Lee's pillar in Southwell Church, put up by Gervas Lee in 1608. This Gervas Lee was afterwards fined £500 for a scurrilous ballad against the chapter of Southwell. See further particulars as to the Lee family in Rastall's 'History of Southwell, 1787.' ‡ Thoroton's, Notts,' pp. 319-351. § Edmondson's 'Heleraldry' also gives the arms of Lee of Southwell as Gules, on a fess cotised or three leopards' heads of the field. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 24 RECORDS OF THE CUST FAMILY. As to the question of the surname of John Brownlow's wife, all the copies of the Lincolnshire Visitations in the British Museum call her " Jane da. of . . . . Botheway of . . . . by his wife da. of Sr John Zouche of Stoughton Grange in coin. Leicester."* There appears no evidence whatsoever in support of this assertion, which is omitted in the more correct Visitation of 1634, and it will probably be safe here also to adopt Segar's view that her name was Jane Arden, to whom he assigns the arms of the Ardens of Alvanley, Gules, three cross-crosslets fitche and a chief or. It is certain that from this time forth the Ardens are often mentioned as cousins to the Brownlows, and as late as May 7th, 1684, Edward Arden assigns an annuity of £20 out of Haia Park, given to him by the first Sir John Brownlow in 1660, to his cousin the second Sir John Brownlow, by a deed now at, Belton which has a fine seal, with the same Arden arms as in Segar's grant with the crest of a plume of feathers used by the Ardens of Alvanley. Segar's Confirmation of Arms and Crest to Richard Brownlow, dated 1602, now at Belton is beautifully emblazoned with a border of gold scroll work.

| 410 | From Original Document. My ancestors came from Scotland. There were three brothers deported from Scotland on account of there religous belief, as they were reebyterians. Their names were Charles Bain, George Bain, and Peter Bain. Charles settled in Maryland, George in Kentucky, and Peter in Virginia. I have met some of the decendants of George in the civil war and later at Nashville, Tenn. Peter Bain, who settled in Virginia, was my father's grand father. My father was born in Roanake county, Viriginia in about the year 1780. His father moved to south Carolinia where he raised a large family. His name was Edwin Bain and Grandmother's was Rachel, and her maiden name was Flaker. Father's brothers were Archibald Bain, Johnson Bain (my father), Peter Bain, David Bain, Richard Bain, John Bain, and Andrew Bain. The youngest of fathers brothers. Uncle Archibald, David and Andrew came to Tennessee from South Carolina in about the year 1812 or 1813 and settled in what was then called Warren county near Caney fork river about six miles below the great falls. John K. Bain (1827-1915) was appointed First Sergeant on January 19, 1863, and listed as being "absent wounded" on the Company Muster Roll for November and December 1863. It is believed that during this time John K. was in Griffin, Spalding County, Georgia, where he met his future wife Sarah Lou Hartsfield. They were married in this town on February 03, 1867. 16th Tennessee Volunteer Infantry Regiment 2nd Lieutenant John Knox Bain A and B Companies He was born on 8 February 1827 in DeKalb County, TN, the son of Johnson Bain and Sina Benton. Raised on an 800 acre farm. In 1846, when the Mexican War broke out, he joined the Company set up by John H. Savage. In the March of 1848 he was discharged, while in Mexico, with consumption, and returned home. In early April 1852 he set off for to California in search of gold. Here he stayed until 16 December 1863 when he set off for home, and arriving home in February 1854. Here he took up farming and the owned a dry goods and grocery store 'until the last of 1855'. He was then a teacher, a clerk, and then an assistant in a dry goods store until the outbreak of war. Enlisted in the Regiment on the 18 May 1861. Discharged as non conscript at the reorganization he now joined Colm’s (Comb's) Battalion. The Battalion was attached to the 50th Tennessee, some time before the 14 March 1863. Shot in the right hand on the 18th September just before the Battle of Chickamauga, 19-20 September 1863. Rejoined his Regiment at Dalton, GA, in March 1864 when he was appointed sutler. Separated from the Regiment on the retreat from Atlanta, when the horse drawing his wagon died, he then returned home. Took the oath of allegiance about the 7 February 1865. He took up farming and then went into business with a partner in a store and when this burnt down he became a clerk. In 1870 moved back to DeKalb County, TN, about 12 miles from McMinnville, where he took up farming until 1881 when he sold and moved to Hot Spring, Arkansas, arriving 20 October 1881. Moving for a short while to Louisiana in 1910 where he lived with his son Hollace Harrison Bain. He wrote a memoir when he was 86-7 and this was published in the Garland County Arkansas Historical Association publication 'The Record' in 1968. He met his wife to be Mary Lou Hartsfield while on convalescent leave, about two months after being wounded. They married on the 3 February 1867 at Griffin, GA. They had five children, of which two died young. He died 31 August 1915, his wife had died 12 February 1892. John K. Bain moved to Garland County, Arkansas, after June 08, 1880 (DeKalb County, census report date). His wife Sarah died on February 12, 1892, and is buried in the Greenwood cemetery. Following the 1910 Garland county census, John moved to Shrevport, Louisianna, and lived with his son Hollace until his death. John K. is buried beside his wife in the Greenwood cemetery. | Bain, John Knox Sr. (I814)

| 411 | From the book by Al Mets Jr. (Metts Family in America" b. 1752 - d. October 1812 Militia Soldier in the American Revolution Henry Mitts was born and died in South Carolina. Many documents contain his name, and a reasonable description of his life can be written. His parentage was discussed to establish Henrick and his wife, Margaret, as his father and mother. The date of his birth is not proved. The old family genealogist, Henry Richard Metts, said that Henry died in his sixtieth year in 1817, hence, a birth year of 1752. With the genealogy are three more pages of outlines of the family, obviously made by family members over the years. The outline gives his birth as 1744, reason unstated. The old Metts genealogist, Henry Richard Metts, in 1859, wrote that Henry's "death took place in October 1812 (dying in his sixtieth year of age)". Using this best evidence, he was born in Saxe Gotha on the 250-acre farm of his father. He was a child during the long years of building a home in the wilderness, clearing the farm, and living in constant fear of Indian attack. He did not go to school or learn to read and write. It may be said that he was illiterate, but he was not ignorant. His life was successful, though hard. A long-time genealogist in South Carolina, Lee R. Gandee wrote that no Metts records survived the Civil War, but he believed, "The family seemed to have no legal entanglements and to keep rather out of sight. They were old-believers, devout Lutherans, farmers who practiced the old ways, believed in witchcraft, and held to themselves". He may have been right because the old Germans lived apart. Probably, no one will ever know the name of Henry's wife. We can identify his children. Documents in Newberry County, in Columbia at the South Carolina Archives, and in Charleston have been studied to find the general story of his life. Brother Charles must have been older than Henry. He moved to Newberry County and bought the 200 acres on Heller's Creek in 1765. Evidently, Henry followed Charles. No land grant or purchase document has been found that records Henry's purchase of his land on Heller's Creek, but in 1772 a man bought land next to Henry's farm. In 1773, a purchase by a Gartman, next to Charles shows that both Henry and Charles lived on Heller's Creek. Again, father Henrick died in Saxe Gotha about 1765, Soon after his death, both Henry and Charles acquired land on Heller's Creek. In 1778 and 1779, Henry's name appears on a jury list in Newberry County. Henry's children were being born before he became involved in the American Revolution, but his service will be discussed before the family. Most Americans think of the American Revolution in the terms presented to them in/school - Bunker Hill, Washington crossing the Delaware, and Yorktown. But there were other sides to the Revolution that many people never have considered. While the northern colonies were eager to fight, many of the southerners had no quarrel with England. The Germans loved Queen Anne as their savior. Their problems were on the frontier - food for their family and protection from the Indians. Open warfare broke out between the Tories - loyal to England - and those supporting the Revolution. The protection of British troops and authority disappeared. Bands of renegades under the colors of either side pillaged the country. In South Carolina, groups of "Regulators" were organized to try and maintain order. Then, the English encouraged the Indians to renew their attacks upon the frontier. Weapons were provided to the Indians and advisors stirred up trouble. Of course, the Indians were smart enough to realize the opportunities presented by the war. The event that brought the South Carolina frontier strongly to the. American cause was the fall of Charleston to the English on 12 May 1780. Now, the war was close to home - South Carolina. Henry Mitts joined the militia in the Water's Regiment. Colonel Philemon Waters was a neighbor. He had served in the Continental Army since the war began. He enlisted his regiment from Laurens and Newberry Counties. There is no way to describe the service of Henry Mitts, other than to present the documentation of his service. These records are in South Carolina. Archives in Columbia. Henry was the father of eight children. They are listed in the outline with the HRM genealogy as follows: John, Phillip (our ancestor), Henry, David, Adam, George, Barbara, and "another daughter". This cannot be the correct order of birth. Only three birthdays are known: Barbara on 10 Aug 1778, Henry in 1782, and George on 28 Jul 1790. In the first U.S. Census, Henry Mitts had 4 sons under 16 years old and two women in the household. One would be daughter, Barbara and the other may be his wife. By 1800, he had two sons under 10, two sons between 10 and 16 years, two sons 16 to 26 years, and one woman 16 to 26 years (Barbara). He had one "free person". This means that he had no wife in 1800. Seven children were at home. The story of Phillip Mitts, our ancestor and son of Henry, will be told later. Since the other children are not in our direct line, discussion of each will be brief. John married Mary M. Koone and had eight children. Their son, Henry married Sara Caroline Vance and moved to Mississippi. John has many descendants in SC, TN, and MS. Henry, son of Henry, was born in 1782 and married Rebeccah Lake. When she died, he married Missouri Ike, a sister. There were six children. Henry's sons David and Adam both died young, and neither was married. (Gene Brownlow - I think this Adam actually did marry and he is in my line) When Adam died, he owned 90 acres of land. David Lightsey bought the land and the money was divided among Adam's living brothers and sisters. The documents are in Box 20, Package 12, at the Newberry courthouse. Documents of this kind prove the validity of the old RHM genealogy. George Metts was born in 1790. He is the father of HRM. George married Lucy Strother and Lucretia Holland. Their five children produced many outstanding and well-educated South Carolinians. George was the last owner of the old homestead on Heller's Creek. He sold it in 1835. At that time, HRM was 19 years old. The daughter of Henry, Barbara, was born in 1778. HRM listed her next to last, the last being an "unnamed daughter". Maybe, it was because she was a girl, but Barbara was far from last, in more than one way. She was big sister in every way! Her husband was a lawyer named Andrew Wicker. She married him in 1805 and they moved to Mississippi in 1818 - long before any of the others. Andrew was the only well-educated person in the entire "bunch". He wrote the legal documents and rode herd over the family business. There were legal battles, particularly when John died. Andrew was a leading participator. The old homestead on Heller's Creek must have been a busy place during those years. HRM described the family, "Now what shall I say about these six sons, their father and grandfather. From tradition, and the writer's own knowledge they were honest, industrious, peaceable, quiet, and thrifty family. None of them ever occupied high public trust, they never sought office, but most of/them were what was known as leading citizens of the neighborhood.". Henry Mitts was a strong and hardworking man who served his country during the American Revolution. His Service and lineage to this writer has been proved to and approved by the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. Henry died in October 1812. | Metts, Henry (I5365)

| 412 | From the book by Al Metts Jr., Metts Family in America born before 1790 - died 16 May 1842 Phillip Mitts was born at the old homestead on Heller's Creek. He was born on a farm and died on a farm, following a plow all the days of his short life - less than sixty years. He married a strong and capable woman, Rebecca Suber, about 1814. Her family lived near the Metts homestead on Heller's Creek. The story of Rebecca's family will be discussed in a separate chapter on the Suber surname. The U.S.Census of 1790 shows four sons in father Henry's household. Phillip was one of them. He helped build Henry's estate and must have saved his own dollars for the day when he would buy his farm. No document remains to show the settlement of Henry's estate when he died in 1812. Rebecca's father died in 1813, leaving her one hundred dollars. Older brother, John must have taken control of the Mitts homestead. Regardless, Phillip married and started his family. David William Metts was born in 1815, the first of seven children. David s descendant, George Pierce Metz, of Louisville, MS, is a student of the family history and will write a book about the family in Winston County, MS. David served as a Colonel in the Confederacy. Our ancestor is Phillip's son, Michael Albert Metts, and his life will be covered later. He was born in 1825. The other five children are not discussed in their order of birth. Martha Caroline was born 13 Jun 1817. She married Giles C. Linch, a lawyer who would take a leading role in all family business. Lemuel P. Mitts was another son. Susannah Mitts married Thomas Carroll. Elizabeth G. Metts married John C. Doss. One of her descendants is Mrs. E. G. (Sarakay) Jordan, of Austin, Texas, former Librarian of the Texas State Genealogical Library. The seventh child was Rebecca A. Metts.'She died young, about one year after the death of her father, Phillip. Finally, with a wife and family, Phillip was able to buy his own land. The year was 1830. On January 16th, he paid Thomas Boyd $375 for 93 acres on Cannon Creek. The next day he paid David Chalmers $660 for 100 acres joining the 93 acres. aAlso, he acquired 425.4 more acres for a total of 618.4 acres. The land is several miles east of the town of Newberry. This land had much better soil than the farm on Heller's Creek. A copy of the plat is on the next page. Several years ago, cousin George Metz, of Louisville, MS, mentioned earlier, went to Newberry with his wife researching family history. They went to the farm that Phillip had owned. .An old man pointed to an old abandoned house and said that it was called "the Metts Place". They stored hay in the old house. It had been struck by lightning and was partly burned. In 1835, Phillip's brother, Adam died. As stated earlier, he had not married, so he left his estate to his brothers and sisters. Phillip received his share, $358.81 3/5. Dollars were valuable in those days so pennies were divided into fifths. It seems that, in the old days lawyers were no better or worse than they are today. Family problems were taken to court and lawyers got their money. In 1835, we see David Lightsey, Henry Mitts, Phillip Mitts, and George Metts versus Lemuel Glymph, administrator of John Mitts, deceased. Glymph was the guardian7of John's children. Teamed with Glymph were Andrew and Barbara Wicker (Phillip's brother-in-law and sister) and John A. Wicker and wife. (Box 20, Bill 1835/Box 38-Newberry). Remembering that the old Metts homestead was sold in 1835, there is little doubt about the subject at stake. Later, in 1842, in court again (Bx 28, Bill 1843/Bx 41, Order 1883/Bx 89) we see David W. Mitts versus Rebecca, Lemuel, Susannah, Michael aAlbert, Elizabeth G., Rebecca A., and Martha Caroline Linch. This is the year that Phillip died . David has his entire family on the other side. He was the first to make the move to Mississippi. The farm of Phillip Mitts The Phillip Mitts family were Lutherans, members of the Bethlehem Lutheran Church near Pomaria, SC, in Newberry County. This church is near the old Metts homestead. My wife, Betty, and I visited the church and cemetery on our way to Heller's Creek. Of course, the church is rebuilt. The S.C. Magazine of Ancestral Research, Winter, 1977, pp.16-24, has some early records of the church. Phillip's sister, Barbara and husband, Andrew Wicker, were very active members. Several of Phillip's in-laws were active. The records are for 1815-1832. On page eleven is the entry, "Martha Caroline, Daughter of Philip Metz and wife Rebekah born 13th of June 1817. Sponcers A. Wecker & wife.". The spelling is bad, but there is no doubt about who they are. When Phillip died on 16 May 1842, Giles C. Linch, the lawyer and son-in-law took over. There are about 15 pages of detailed handwritten documents to handle the business. Rebecca sold the farm on 20 Nov 1846. She sold it to Job Johnston for $1,855. She signed the document with an "X". Phillip's estate was settled in 1845. Each child received $570.29 and his wife, Rebecca got $1,924.42. The total was $3,848.85. When daughter Rebecca A. died in June 1843, her share of Phillip's estate was divided among the family. The sums above may seem small in these inflated times, but Phillip died a very wealthy man. In addition to the 618 acres of good farming land, he owned 20 slaves, horses, hogs, cotton, corn, tools, and many household items. A small part of the inventory is below: (Listed in the book) Phillip was the last ancestor with the Metts name that signed his name with a mark. The family was left with decisions to make for the future. Legal action forced division of the estate. The farm was sold. There is an interesting point to make, here. We see the changing times. In old England, then Virginia and with the move west, there was the old English law of "primo genitor" which left all of the inheritance to the oldest son. The intention was to keep estates intact. Wives got next to nothing. Now, here, we see Rebecca taking her place as the head of the family. She had a lawyer son-in-law on her side. The oldest son, David, set out for Winston County, Mississippi. The family planned to follow him, so plans were made for the wagon train to leave in 1847. Other families joined the Metts family for the big move. Our ancestor, Michael Albert Metts, was to "pilot" the convoy. Wagons, slaves, animals, food, and money were organized and Phillip's wife, Rebecca Suber Metts would head westward. The story will return to South Carolina to give the family history of the Saeber-Suber- Weyman-Miller- Glymph ancestors of Rebecca. (Please see the chart). Later, the story goes back to South Carolina again for the Nash and Hodges ancestors. Then, the Kaiglers will be the last of the South Carolina kin. This is an appropriate time in the story to recognize and express appreciation to four South Carolina friends who are great genealogists and generous contributors to this history. Glenda Bundrick of Newberry and Betty Bundrick of Columbia have searched and found every paper with any spelling of Metts and sent them to me with their expert interpretation and evaluation. Dr. .Andy Suber, of Columbia, is the head of the Suber clan. When his book comes forth, we will have a great reference. Carol Speers is the Probate Clerk in the Abbeville Courthouse. That's where the Old 96th District was administered. Carol knows where the papers are and has helped greatly. Let me thank each of you before taking the Mitts-Metts convoy to Mississippi! | Metts, Phillip (I5371)
