12710	THE ANCESTRY OF HANNAH (GRANT) HAZEN Edwards Hazen's wife, Hannah Grant, the mother of the American Hazens, derived from the parish of Cottingham in Yorkshire, England. It has longbeen known that she was a daughter of Thomas and Jame Grant of Rowley,MA Her ancestry has been traced by the author Tracy Elliott Hazen to allfour grandparents, and to one great-grandfather. Although the maiden name of Mrs. Hannah Hazen does not appear in her marriage record, in accordance with the practice of the town clerk for that year, nevertheless her family history is known from an affidavit filed in the Essex County Probate Court in the settlement of the estate ofher brother John Grant, who died at Rowley, 18 Mar. 1696/97; "I Sam Stickney Sr of Bradford do testifie and say That I came over from Englandto New England in the same ship wth Thomas Grant and Jame Grant his Wife, who brought over wth them Foure Children, by name John, Hannah, Frances and Ann, whome I was well acquainted with, and next or near neighbours unto in Rowley. And ye said John being deceased, I do affirm that the sisters of John Grant above named, now by marriage knowne by he namesof Hannah Browne, Frances Keyes, and Ann Emerson, are ye same yt cameover sth their Father and Mother, and by them owned wth said John for their children." Sworn to 20 July 1698. [Essex Inst. Hist. Coll., 21:99.] Thomas and Jame Grant came from England in 1638. No record of their death is known, but as Widow Jane Grant she had a house lot on Bradford Street, Rowley, in 1643, and was taxed for two cows in 1653. Of their four children, John died without issue; Frances married, at Newbury, MA, 2OCT 1653, Solomon Keyes of Newbury, soon of Chelmsford, MA; and Ann married, at Rowley, 4 Jan 1658, Robert Emerson of Haverhill. The town of Rowley was settled under the leadership of Rev. Ezekiel Rogers, who arrived in Salem, MA, in December, 1638, with about twenty families of his Yorkshire friends, "godly men, and most of them of good estate." He had labored, with great fidelity and eminent usefulness, for seventeen years in the parish of Rowley, in the southern part of Yorkshire, but at length was suspended, "for refusing to read that accursed book that allowed sports on God's holy Sabbath, or Lord's day, and, by itand other signs of the times, driven, with many of his hearers, into New England." The company spent the winter in Salem, some of them prospecting at New Haven, where they were importuned to settle. About April, 1639, increased to about sixty families, they made a settlement between Ipswich and Newbury, which was incorporated 7 Sept. 1639 under the name of Rowley. "These people it appears, labored together and in common, fornearly five years from the time they commenced a settlement in this place; no man owning any land in severalty from the company, until after they had, probably, cleared up the lands on each side of the brook that runs through the central part of what is now the first parish in Rowley,and laid out the several streets as now improved." [Gage, Hist. of Rowley, p. 122.] On 10 Jan. 1643, a survey of the town was made by Mr. Thomas Nelson, Mr. Edward Carleton, Humphrey Reyner, and Francis Parrot, and the location and size of each house lot (consisting usually of an acre and a half) recorded; in this register the name of Edward Hazen doesnot appear. The remaining undivided land was called commons, and it was agreed that every 1 1/2 acre house lot should have 1 1/2 "gates" or cow rights in the common pastures. In a later survey, undated, but probably made before 1647, is found thefirst mention of our common ancestor as a land owner, probably also theearliest record of the family in America: Certaine Diuisions of Meadow laid out in the Meadow Called Crane Meadow To Edward Hassen three Acres of meadow lying on the South east side of John Smithes meadow the northeast end abutting upon a pond the south west end upon the upland. To Leonard Harriman seauen Acres of meadow lying on the Southeast side of Edward Hassens meadow pt of it bought of William Hobson and pt of John Harris the east end abutting upon a brooke the west end upon the upland --- Uplands laid out at the plaine Called the Great plaine Imp to Edward Hassen foure Acres & an halfe of upland at the plaine Called the great plaine lying next the south ffence by the Country way the east end abutting toward the fence the west end towards other. To John Smith 5 Acres of upland lying on the north side of Edward Hassens land abutting as aforesaid. To Thomas Tenny two Acres & and halfe of land lying on the north side of John Smithes land abutting as aforesaid. To William Tenny two Acres of land lying on the north side of Thomas Tennyes land abutting as aforesaid [Rowley Records, pp. 46-48.] In a list, apparently regarding cattle about 1648, is found "Edw Hasen 2"; August 1650, apparently a tax list for oxen, "Edward hasen 2"; and asimilar list slightly later, "Ed;hassen paid - butter." "The names of those that has Calues & the number of them 1650: Ed Hasen - 1 T Tenne-1 Ri Swan-2." [ibid., pp. 53, 59, 60, 61.] In accordance with an order made in the year 1650, the fences of the common fields of the town of Rowley were divided according to the proportion of land held by individual proprietors, and a number was assigned to each man's portion; the comparative length of the fence to be maintained by Edward Hazen and some of his neighbors who became ancestors of many Hazen descendants is of interest as indicating their relative holdings at this time: "the hundred and fort Rod of the feild fence which they who have gats in the ox pastur are to make and mainetaine its thus numbered as followeth VIfrances Parrat six rale Length VIIMr Shewell Twelue rale Length VIIIWilliam Asee six rale Lengths VIIIMr Carlton six Rale Lengths XThomas Teney six rale Length XIThomas Crosbee six rale Length XIIRichard Swane nine rale Length XIIIIEdward hasen three Rale Length XVMr Ezekiell Rogers nineteene rale Lengths XVIIIMr Thomas Nellson Thirty one rale Lengths The fence between the ox lpasture and the medow which is a two Rale fence at further sid of the ox pasture to ye mill ward thos are the seuerall proportions as folleth euery ox gate Two rale lengths and euer aker of medow foure and a half-- IIfrances Parrat foure rale Lengths XVIMr Ezekiell Rogers twelue rail Length XVIIEdward Hasen Twol rale Lengths XVIIIJohn Smith foure rale Lengths XVIIIIJohn Pearson eighteen rale Lengths XXMr Edward Carlton Thirty rale Lengths XXIRobert Swane foure rale Length & halfe and Richard Swane suenteene and half of length XXIIWilliam Boynton nine rale Lengths XXIIIWill Teny and Thomas Teny nine Lengths There were others with small holdings, but Edward Hazen's proportion incomparison with those listed above was even less then appears, since their names are on another list from which his is absent. [Rowley Records, pp.61-4.] "At a generall and legall towne meeting held the same tyme [5 May 1659]It was granted that Richard Swan and John Lambert should view and lay out a certaine percell of land as they shall see cause unto Edward HazenJoyneing to his owne land in the Common feild nere Cowbridge."[Ibid., p. 103.] By 4 Feb. 1661 Edward Hazen had attained a relatively high degree of prosperity, as shown in "A Survay of The Seuerall Gates or Commonages belonging unto The seuerall Inhabbitants of The Towne of Rowley as They are Now in possession haueing Been Transfered and Sould from one To another since the Begining of the Said Towne-- To Edward Hassen his halfe two acre lot that he purchased of John Smithtwo gates and one quarter purchased of John Tod one gate purchased of the towne one and of Thomas Crosbie one 2 gates purched of Thomas Nelson one and one that he had of the towne for land he laid downe -- 2 gates This total os seven and one quarter gates, or cattle rights, appears tohave been surpassed only by Elizabeth Tenney alias Parratt and two or three others, the average number was about three gates to a proprietor. [Ibid., p. 120.] Surveys in 1662: "To Edward Hassen as his first devission of land threeacres and one hundred Rod be it more or less lieing on the south side of Richard hollmes land the west end buting against William tennys land the east against the common. To Edward Hasen three acres and one hundredRod lieing on the south side of Mark Prime's land." {Gage, Hist. of Rowley, pp. 143, 144.] In 1667 Hog Island marshes were divided and laid out, and Edward Hazen received a share. On 16 Apr. 1688, "the town passed an order, directing the town brook to be cleared out, three feet wide and two feet deep, andso kept: Beginning at Jonathan Jackson's land on Bradford Street, and so through Jachin Reyner's land downward, till the brooks meet, and thence downward till the brook enters Satchwell;s meadow; and from Edward Hazen's bridge in his swamp [Town's End bridge] downward to the other brook-" [Ibid., p 144.] Baptism: October 16, 1631, Cottingham, Yorkshire, England[Hazen21404.FTW]	Grant, Hannah (I22350)
12711	The birth of John is recorded at Boxford as 21 Feb. 1710. It seems probable that when, years later, John Hazen had all his children recordedat Norwich, a mistake was made as to the exact age of his firstborn, for John, the eldest child, is there recorded as born 21 Feb 1711/12. It is possible that there were two Johns born exactly a year apart, but the above explanation is more reasonable. The birth of Hannah is given above as on the Norwich town record; on the Lyme records the same child is given as born 18 May 1731 at Norwich. The birth of Thomas, according to his own family record, was 16 Jan. 1733, but as he gives the name of his father John on that record, there can be no question that he is to be identified with the Thomas born in Lyme. The case of Hannah proves that either the father or the town clerk was not to be relied on, and considering the numerous cases among thedescendants, of parents who cannot give the ages of children, and sometimes not even their own, accurately, such discrepancies ought to have no great weight. He received land from his father by a deed dated 25 Jan. 1736/7; "I John Hazen of Lyme for ye love good will and natural affection I have owe and do bear unto my loveing and dutifull son John Hazen of sd Lyme . . .. give . . . unto him" two pieces of land containing 25 1/2 acres in the East Parish of Lyme. This land with a dwelling house was conveyed by John Hazen, Jr., to Robert Miller, 3 Jan 1739/40, and on the same date he bought of Robert Miller another house and 25 acres for 400 pounds.This place he sold again, with 7 1/2 acres purchased of "his honored father," to David Huntley for 500 pounds, 14 Sept. 1742. No later Hazendeeds are recorded in Lyme, though from the record of births of the children, it is evident that the family was there at least twelve years later. He seems to have made a prospecting trip in New Jersey about 1745, but there is no evidence that he had any residence outside of CT	Hazen, John (I22495)
12712	The Brown FamilyBy: Jimmie Brown AskewThomas Brown was born about 1773 in Fincastle, Virginia. He was married to Nancy Litton in 1795. They came to Jackson County about 1800. Jackson County was formed in 1801 and engulfed the area of what is now Clay County. Thomas bought 8,000 acres of land on the Dry Fork of Flynn's Creek where he lived. At this time Thomas and Nancy had four children who had been born in Fincastle, Virginia: Ferby, John "Jackie", Lockney, and Dudley. Henderson, Lucinda, and Jimmerson were born in Jackson County Tennessee on Dry Fork of the Flynn's Creek. Nancy died sometime after 1806. Thomas later married Elizabeth ? , who died after 1860. (Editor's note: It is believed Elizabeth was a Billingsley. See later notes.)Thomas divided his land among his children as they married. I am descended from one of his sons, Dudley Brown (1799-1891), whose log cabin still stands on a high hill on Dry Fork. It was built on a level piece of land on the crest of the hill. The narrow winding road leading to it snakes almost straight up to this flat land, and after walking only a few feet from the edge, nothing can be seen except the cabin, the sky, and the land surrounding it. One gets the feeling of being on top of the world. The cabin's in accessability kept it isolated for the last 160 years, which accounted in part for its amazing state of preservation. The original floor, mantel, and doors were still in good condition, but the top story (of the cabin) had been blown off, and a kitchen that had once been attached to one end of the cabin near the chimney, had been torn away. The logs of the house were secured with wooden pegs. There is a family cemetary, grown up with weeds in the back of the house with eight or ten graves marked with crude linestone rocks. It has been said that Dudley said he owned all the land he could see from the edge of this high point.(Excerpted from the above document by Joe Lynn, 1996)THOMAS BROWN'S farm was entered in state records in 5-may-1801(Tennessee State Land Archives) Thomas Brown's Estate Settlement, Jackson Co., Tn. 1867, Minute Book D, Chancery Court,Aug.

Lynn-7-16-1996. Comma's were added to make the document easier to read.Thomas Brown Farm was 8 miles from Gainesboro, Tn., west on Highway 53, to Fork of Creek School House then turn left , then up Dry Fork of Flynn's Creek 14 miles. In1936 Sid Ragland occupied this farm.Thomas Brown came to what is now Jackson Co. Tn. about 1800. In 1801 Jackson County was formed. Thomas bought 8000 acres of land on Dry Fork of Flynn's Creek. Four of his children, Feraby, John "Jackie", Lockney, and Dudley were all born at Fincastle, Va From: Jackson County Tomb Stone Records-Copied by Maude McGlasson, 1936Information given by W.M. (MARSH) BROWN, of the Nameless Community, he is 84 years old, and a Great Grandson of TOMMY BROWN and wife, and Grandson of JACKIE BROWN.Tommie Brown and wife (whose name is unknown to the Brown Family of today) came from "Ole Virginnie" in the early Pioneer days and settled on and around in the country from Dry Fork Creek of Flynn's Creek and south of the Bell Hill, later called Nameless Community, on a farm of some 6000-8000 acres. Mrs. BROWN (NANCY) died a few years after coming to this section, what is now Jackson County. They had four sons namely-DUDLEY BROWN, HENDERSON BROWN, JACKIE BROWN, and JIMMIE BROWN. The people realizing the need for a Church in the community, they decided to build a house and called it a free church for all Churches to use for worship. This house was located on the grounds where TOMMY BROWN lived for many years. And at that time his son lived there too. DUDLEY BROWN the eldest son, and brother, HENDERSON says, I will put up one side of the house, which he did of nice big logs, cut and hewn by himself. The community assisted with the completion of the house named for Uncle JIMMIE (JIMMERSON) BROWN and his sons, "BROWN'S CHAPEL".As the custom was in those days, there must be room near the church house to bury the dead. DUDLEY BROWN deeded the land for this purpose, known as "BROWN'S CHAPEL GRAVEYARD". The graveyard located on the east side of Dry Fork Creek of Flynn's Creek, and the church on the west side, and the same with the road. Now a gravel road.There are many graves here. Many soldiers of both Revolutionary and Civil War are buried here, grave on top of grave, as the early ones were un-marked. This BROWN's Chapel graveyard, located in the 11th Civil District of Jackson County, Tenn., on Dry Fork of Flynn's Creek. Out from Gainesboro 8 miles, west on Highway 53, to Fork of Creek School house, turn to the left, thence up Dry Fork Creek of Flynn's Creek, 4 miles. This farm is now owned by Sid Ragland, who lives some 200 yards South, on the right of the creek and road from the graveyard.1995- New evidence has been received confirming that THOMAS BROWN's second wife was Elizabeth Billingsley. (See Billingsleys Family in America) a book in the Jackson County Public Library.

JBL))).Notes for NANCY JANE LITTON:There is a considerable amount of time lapse between her father John's marriage and the estimated time of Nancy's birth. We know that Nancy supplied her own Marriage Bond, so she must have been at least 21 years old at the time of her Marriage to Thomas Brown in 1795. She must have been born Ca. 1770-1774. But if John Litton's children are listed in the order of their birth, Nancy would have been born in the mid 1750's. That would make her almost 20 years older than her Husband. This is only speculation.Pat Spurlock Ford has Nancy born about 1765. On the internet, Daryl Litton has her born 1774.New information-3-4-1998:From a geneaolgy from dlytton@primenet.com we find a Nancy Jane Litton, b.1775, daughter of John Richard Litton, b. 4-7-1726, Rockville, Montgomery Co., Md., d. 3-Jan-1804, in Elk Garden, Va.,John was buried in Litton Cemetary, Russell Co., Va.25-Jun_1998Information recieved from Susie Culwell, Austin, Tx. that Nancy lived until 1810.1999If Nancy was born in 1775, she was 20 when she married Thomas.Children of THOMAS BROWN and NANCY LITTON are:+ 2 i.

12721	The fact that Archibald is Donald's father is a guess by me. I made the connection because: - living on adjacent lots in 1851 census - only 2 McNeil families on that census - Archibald was born in Scotland, Donald's father shown born in Scotland on donald's census records. - The ages of the 2 work. - There is a small child named Baker in Archibald's household. Donald married Emily Baker 3 years earlier. The one fact that does not match is Mary (Archibald's wife) was born in Scotland, Donald's mother is listed on census records as born in Canada. But as Donald was born in scotland, it is likely that his mother was from scotland as well. Mary died in 1851, and Archibald might have remarried a woman from Canada. - 2009-05-05 jerrymilojohnson probably grandson http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?rank=1&new=1&MSAV=0&msT=1&gss=angs-g&gsfn=donald&gsln=mcneil&_81004010=1818&msbpn__ftp=scotland&_81004030=1907&msdpn=43424&msdpn__ftp=Haynes%2c+Michigan%2c+USA&pcat=ROOT_CATEGORY&h=26799&recoff=1+2&db=1851Canada&indiv=1 1851 Census of Canada East, Canada West, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia about John Parsons Name: ´tabªJohn Parsons Gender: ´tabªMale Age: ´tabª4 Estimated Birth Year: ´tabªabt 1848 Birthplace: ´tabªCanada Province: ´tabªCanada West (Ontario) District: ´tabªMiddlesex County District Number: ´tabª23 Sub-District: ´tabªCaradoc Sub-District Number: ´tabª214 Page: ´tabª101 Line: ´tabª12 Roll: ´tabªC_11737 Schedule: ´tabªA possibly granddaughter, or inlaws child 1851 Census of Canada East, Canada West, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia about Mary Baker Name: ´tabªMary Baker Gender: ´tabªFemale Age: ´tabª1 Estimated Birth Year: ´tabªabt 1851 Birthplace: ´tabªCanada Province: ´tabªCanada West (Ontario) District: ´tabªMiddlesex County District Number: ´tabª23 Sub-District: ´tabªCaradoc Sub-District Number: ´tabª214 Page: ´tabª101 Line: ´tabª13 Roll: ´tabªC_11737 Schedule: ´tabªA	McNeil, Archibald (I4616)

(he died March, 1,1948) on page 3 William Richard Sharp 80 of 1010 Eubanks, died in his home of a heart ailment. He came to Oklahoma City in 1940 after retiring from farming in Clegg, Texas. Born in Clay County, ( I have Murphy, North Carolina or Cherokee County every where else. this could just be a mistake but worth looking into. ) North Carolina, October 27, 1867, Sharp moved to Blanchard, Oklahoma in 1912. He farmed there untill 1937 when he moved to Texas. Survivors are his wife, Nancy, a son, Don Russell and a daughter, Opal May, of the home Address: Sons Guy C. Sharp of Los Angeles, California, and Ray C. Sharp, San Antonio, Texas: Daughters Julia Maxine Woolf, Will Rogers field, and Mary Ruby Sherburne, 3004 N. Robinson and 8 grandchildren. Services will be announced by Perrine funeral home. William Richard Sharp is buried in Blanchard ,Oklahoma in Blanchard Cemetery with wife, Nancy and children Don, Opal. Maxine Woolf is buried there also but with her husband. in the 1920 Oklahoma census they have a Mary Griffin 13 years of age living with William Richard Sharp's family. the census states she was born in Arkansas. The 1910 census shows a Owen Griffin living at John W. Sharp's home at the time . The boy was 16 years old. Could he be the brother of Mary? In the obituary of Mary Ruby Sharp Sherburne it listed 3 sisters still living. Mary or "Hoover" only had two. It listed Mary Griffin as a sister. Dad stated that back then people would take children in and raise them as their own without really adopting them. this must have been the case of mary Griffin and her brother. Dad also states that William Richard Sharp and his wife Nancy were having a hard time in Georgia and his younger brother John W. invited him to come out to Oklahoma and live with them. Dad also stated the farm in Blanchard that his Grandfather had really belonged to his brother John. Dad states that John owned a store in Blanchard. I did find in a book about McClain County of early businesses in Blanchard. They listed a G. W. Sharp as owning a Livery and Feed Store. They may have made a mistake and it should have been a J. instead of a G.	Sharp, William Richard (I1761)
