Comment by Donald Totten Paper on Benjamin Totten French Huguenot Dr. Jean or John Toton, Toten, Totne, Touton etc. in Virginia and Massachusetts. The reference materials that have been reviewed include: (“The Huguenot Emigration To America” by Baird, Volume 1, page 271), (William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Magazine, Series I, Volume I, pages 226-233, Volume 3, page 84, Volume 4, page 15, Volume 19), (Tyler’s Quarterly Historical and Genealogical Magazine, Volume 1, pages 213 and 268, Volume 2, page 279), (Massachusetts Archives, Volume 10, page 208a, Volume 67, Page 221, Volume 69, Pages 58-60, Volume 126, page 374) and (“Soldiers in King Philip’s War” by George Madison Bodge, Boston, Mass. 1906). It appears that this John Toton/Toten was one of those who, were expelled from Rochelle , France in 1661, for religious reasons and because they had not been residents previous to the landing of the English forces under Buckingham in July 1627. Dr. Toton, in behalf of himself and others, petitioned to be permitted to reside in the Colony. None of the material that has been found provides any genealogical information on Dr. John Toton (Touton) or any basis for connecting him with either Edward Totnan or Richard Totten Senior. The entry on page 221, Volume 67 of the Mass. Archives is dated July 22, 1675 and relates to John Toton and the Mass. Military Expedition to Mount Hope as referenced by Harold Totten and noted above. However, this particular entry on this page is an order to Dr. John Toton and concerns the treatment of wounded soldiers. It is not an entry by John Toton and it digging farther into the Massachusetts Archives. Iunderstand that these records have not been transcribed and printed or totally indexed and are only, for the most part, available for review as microfilm copies of the original Old English Script entries. It is extremely difficult for most people to decipher and wade through this material. An extensive effort has been made to find evidence that would support the assumption that Edward Totnan and Joane Meade were the parents of Dr. John Toton of Rehoboth, Mass. and Richard Totten Sr. of Hempstead, Long Island, New York. In all cases the results have been totally negative. We should probably now assume that there are no records which support this family grouping and that Edward Totnan and Joane Meade are not the parents of ou Richard Totten Sr. . The records below that these 2 Totten families in New York. The line of the Frecnh Huguenot Dr John Touton- Totten and that of Meades Tottens Tichard Totten English lines.

In his interesting and instructive letter, published in the Sentinel, August ______ . Mr . L. F. Myers says: Nat Brown and brother James Brown, sons of John Brown, made the statement that the first court held in Jackson County, Tennessee was at their father's house, three and a half miles South of Hilham in 1803, and next at the Hickey Place, owned at the time by Benjamin Totten. Now, note the date 1803, when the first court was held at the Brown Place. Remember, the Act creating the County was passed Nov. 6, 1801. Where were Courts held during the interval of more than a year between that date and the f irst of the year 1803. Four Courts were to be held each year, December, March, June and September. Does not this demonstrate that the four courts at least, during 1802, were held at the house of John Bowen on Roaring River, as the Act provides? This does not detract from the interest in the John Brown place, where the Courts were held in 1803. The Commissioners were required by the Act to procure 40 acres as near the center of the County as practicable, and lay off the town of Smithfield. I think Capt. Myers has helped to locate the lost town of Smithfield, and the site should be appropriately marked as well as the Bowen place, and the Hickey, or Totten place. A. V. and W. H. Goodpasture say in their life of J. D. Goodpasture, page 16, that: Daniel Brown married a sister of Benjamin Totten, the first of Overton County. The Courts of the County (Overton) were organized at Totten's House on Eagle Creek, and continued to be held there until the General Assembly passed an Act that after the first day of June 1810 the Courts should be held at the town of Monroe. CAPRPENTER FILES William (2), son of Joseph and Hannah (Carpenter) Carpenter, was born at Pawtucket, Rhode Island, about 1666. The first mention of him is found in the will of his grandfather, 1683, and in 1692 he appears at Pawtucket and sold the property so given by will. He acted as one of the proprietors after the death of his brother Joseph until 1706, when his nephew Joseph attained legal age. He was a large land owner and prominent in the affairs of the plantation. He was a blacksmith by trade, having his homestead and shop in that part of town known as "Duck Pond," now a residential section known as Nassau Station. He sold his property in 1720 and removed to Westchester county, New York, though he still had landed interests at Musketa Cove as late as 1734. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Ephraim Carpenter, supposed to have been his cousin; she died about 1743. Children: 1. William, married Elizabeth Prior. 2. Joseph, married Ann Farman. 3. Silas, no record of marriage. 4. Benjamin, married (first) Dinah Albertson; (second) Lydia Thorne. 5. Timothy, see forward. 6. Elizabeth, married Samuel Weeks. 7. Ruth, married William Thornecraft. 8. Mai, married Captain Thomas Kepp. 9. Benedict, married (first) Hannah Haviland; (second) Abigail Horton; (third) Abigail Ferris. The members of the "Friends Meeting" at Purchase, New York, says he for "4th wife married the widow, Elizabeth Wanser, who survived him." (IV) Timothy, son of William (2) and Elizabeth (Carpenter) Carpenter, was born at Musketa Cove, Long Island, New York, April 1, 1698. He removed to Westchester county, New York. In 1720 he bought a large tract of land from the Indians at North Castle, part of which still remains in the family. His house was burned in 1721 and again in 1722. He then built the house in which he lived until his death. The house was afterward occupied by his son Timothy, his grandson William, and his great-grandson Job R. It was torn down in 1845. In his will, made July 11, 1763, he divides a large landed property among his living children and wife Phebe. His will was proved May 24, 1769. Timothy Carpenter married, about 1719, Phebe, born March 16, 1706, daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth (Albertson) Coles. Children: 1. Samuel (said to have been the first white child born at North Castle), born January 17, 1720; married Rachel, daughter of Job Wright, and had two children. 2. Ephraim, born June 27, 1723; is believed to have removed to Orange county, New York. 3. George, married Lucretia, daughter of Thomas Goulding; he was a farmer at "Nine Partners," Dutchess county, New York; had five children. 4. Phebe, born June 25, 1729; married William Forman, a farmer of Yorktown, Westchester county; they had a daughter Elizabeth, married Josiah Green. 5.

The abstract is as follows: Page 223.--In the name of God, Amen, January 3, 1755. I, MOSES FOWLER, of North Castle, in Westchester County, Innkeeper, being very sick. I leave to my wife Elizabeth the best bed and furniture, and one cow, one horse, "and a green plush side saddle and a bridle." Out of the remainder of my personal estate all debts and funeral charges to be paid, and of what is left my wife is to have 1/3. I leave to my beloved sons, Henry and Newbury Fowler, all the farm where I now live, being in North Castle, with the house, barn, and orchard, to be divided when my eldest son Henry shall be 21, Also all my piece of land in the East Patent in North Castle.

Archealus, born April 23, 1734; married Rebecca Goulding, sister of the wife of his brother George. He was a tanner and currier, and had a farm at North Castle, where he lived at the time of the revolution. He sided with the "Loyalists," and because of his activity in their behalf his farm was confiscated and he and his family compelled to leave the country. They left New York in 1783, on board the ship "Cyrus," and settled in New Brunswick, enduring for many years untold hardships in that unsettled country. It is said of him that he built the first house and shop at "Parrtown," now St. John. He died July 15, 1810, leaving nine children. 8. Silas, born July 15, 1737; was a farmer of Greenwich, Connecticut; he married Phebe, daughter of Joseph and Hannah Fowler, and had eight children. 9. Benjamin, twin of Silas; married Mary Searles; he was a farmer and resided for a time at Pittstown, Rensselaer county; had seven children. 10. Timothy, born August 1, 1740; married Hannah Ferris and had three children. 11. Elizabeth, died young. (V) William (3) (named for his Grandfather Carpenter), son of Timothy and Phebe (Coles) Carpenter, was born at North Castle, Westchester county, New York, April 5, 1731, died June 6, 1814.

"Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s - 1900s Record" Bobs Benealogy Cabinet Thomas Reynolds of Surry and Charles City County The same Thomas Reynolds, surgeon, appears in the records of both Surry County and Charles City County. The land of Thomas Reynolds is mentioned in a patent issued on 15 August 1637 to John Hucks for 200 acres in James City County on the south side of James River.[1] The patent was located in what later became Surry County, near Smith’s Fort Creek [later Grays Creek].[2] In 1652 probably the same Thomas Reynolds assigned a patent of 50 acres in Charles City County to Francis Grey.[3] In 1654 the Surry records identify Thomas Reynolds as a doctor when he sued for “physicke” services.[4] By 17 September 1655 Thomas Reynolds appears in a Charles City County record which suggests he was then living on the line between Charles City [later Prince George] and Surry counties.[5] On 13 February 1657/8 Thomas Warren of Surry sold to Thomas Reynolds of Martins Brandon in Charles City County “Chyrurgion”, 100 acres on Smith’s Fort Creek near the 1637 patent.[6] The acknowledgement of payment refers to him as “Doctor Tho. Rennals”.[7] Probably the same Thomas Reynolds signed as a witness to a Surry deed on 1 January 1661/2 and to a bill two weeks later.[8] On 6 March 1664/5 Thomas Reynolds sold the 100 acres purchased seven years earlier, Thomas giving power of attorney to “my loveinge wife Jane Reynolds” and she appearing in court to acknowledge the sale.[9] At the same court a land sale by Luthird and Chaddocke is recorded, referencing a prior assignment to them from “Dr. Reynolds”, perhaps referring to the land Reynolds owned in 1637.[10] He does not appear further in Surry’s records, but is mentioned frequently, often as a doctor, in Charles City records through 1665.[11] There is at that point a gap in the Charles City County records until a fragmentary book for 1672-3 in which he is not mentioned. However, on 28 April 1660 Marke Avery of Martins Brandon made a deed of gift of 50 acres to Thomas Reynolds “chirurgeon of Surry County”.[12] A patent renewal was issued to Thomas Reynolds for this land ten years later on 14 October 1670.[13] There are no further records of either Thomas Reynolds or of his wife Jane, Charles City County records being essentially nonexistent after 1665. There are no Reynolds in the 1704 quit rents in either Charles City or Prince George counties. He is perhaps the “Tho. Reynolds” claimed as a headright by Henry Perry for a patent in Charles City County on 18 December 1637, for land on the north side of the James River roughly opposite Martins Brandon.[14] “Thomas Reynolds at Martins Brandon in Virginia” was left £40 in the will of Robert Greene of Stepney, Middlesex in 1658, perhaps an indication of his English origins.[15] Thomas Reynolds of Isle of Wight. A patent was issued to Anthony Mathews on 1 February 1664/5 for 650 acres in Isle of Wight for transportation of 13 persons, among them a “Tho. Reighnolds”.[16] There are no further records of a Thomas Reynolds in Isle of Wight. Two Thomas Reynolds of Lower Norfolk County A patent was issued to Thomas Rennolls on 16 April 1653 for 100 acres on the southwest side of Daniel Tanner’s Creek in Lower Norfolk County for transportation of two persons.[17] He was probably the same person as “Tho: Reinolds”, one of eight persons for whom Lemuel Mason obtained a headright certificate in Lower Norfolk on 6 April 1649.[18] Mason sold the headright certificate, and “Tho. Rennolds” was claimed as a headright a year later, on 13 March 1649/50, by John Cabbidge for land in Lower Norfolk on Little Creek, only about three miles from that 1653 patent.[19] Thomas Reynolds first appears in Lower Norfolk records as an appraiser of the estate of Thomas Edwards on 16 February 1648/9.[20] A letter written by Thomas “Renalls” of Lower Norfolk County was recorded (apparently after his death) on 28 April 1658 in Lower Norfolk.[21] The letter was written to his “very loving sister” Elizabeth Renalls of St. John’s Gate, Bristol and refers to “my daughter” who was apparently living in England, as well as to “my aunt” and “my cousin James”. The sister Elizabeth Reynolds, who had deposed herself to be age 41 in 1657, was the widow of William Reynolds, mariner, “brother of Thomas Renalls late of East Smithfield, London, mariner, deceased.”[22] The daughter was Elizabeth Reynolds, according to the same record. A different Thomas Reynolds was named a son-in-law in the will of George Ashall of Lower Norfolk County. [The name is “Ashwell” in other Lower Norfolk records.] This will, dated 1 September 1671 and proved 17 February 1671/2, mentions “my daughter Elizabeth wife of Thomas Reynolds”.[23] Elizabeth Ashwell was named a goddaughter in the will of Peter Markes in 1656, indicating she was still unmarried at that time.[24] Thomas Reynolds apparently died within a few years leaving no issue, for a deed dated 16 September 1685 by James Peters of Little Creek speaks of 200 acres sold by Robert Blake to Thomas Reynolds “who dyeing without issue living” fell to John Reynolds “brother and heire to the said Thomas Reynolds” who sold to James Peters on 16 April 1679.[25] [This is the only record of a John Reynolds in Lower Norfolk, suggesting he may have lived elsewhere.] A patent to Charles Griffin in 1694 speaks of a different parcel of 208 acres at the head of Little Creek sold by Thomas Reynolds to Robert Blake sometime after 1661.[26] On 23 October 1690 James Peters received a patent for transportation of 13 persons, among them Richard Ashall and Thomas Reynolds – both of whom had probably arrived in Virginia forty years earlier. Stephen F. Tillman also concluded that the above records were for two different Thomas Reynolds, one of whom he did not address. He identified the husband of Elizabeth Ashall as a Thomas Reynolds born circa 1655, who later moved to New Kent County. Note, though, that this would have made Thomas Reynolds barely 16 when he was named a son-in-law of George Ashall. Henry Reynolds (c1661 – c1685?) of Surry County On 3 March 1674, Arthur Allen was awarded a headright certificate by the Surry County court for importation of forty persons, among them a Henry Reynolds.[27] The same Henry Reynolds, along with other names from this certificate, were later used as headrights in two separate patents of 1678 and 1687.[28] Apparently the same Henry Reynolds, a servant to James Redduck, was adjudged to be 15 years old by the Surry Court on 28 March 1676.[29] He appears as a tithable of James Redduck from 1677 through 1684, and as a tithable of Charles Gutheridge in 1685. He does not appear thereafter in any Surry or Isle of Wight records. Note that he cannot be the same person as the Henry Reynolds who left a will in neighboring Isle of Wight in 1679. Henry Reynolds (? – 1681) of Isle of Wight County A different Henry Reynolds left a will dated 6 April 1679 and proved on 9 June 1681 in Isle of Wight County, naming his wife Joyce executrix, and mentioning children Henry and Sarah.[30] He had probably died at least a few months earlier, for his wife had already remarried by the time the will was proved. The appraisal was dated the same day and presented by Joyce Page, formerly Joyce Reynolds.[31] The will of Henry Clay, undated but recorded 10 January 1675/6, mentions “Mary the youngest daughter of Henry Reynolds”, perhaps the same person.[32] The son Henry may have been the same person as below. Henry Reynolds (? - 1729) of Isle of Wight County 36 years after the above will, another Henry Reynolds appears in Isle of Wight records. On 13 November 1717 Roger Tarleton sold 100 acres south of the Blackwater River to Henry Reynolds, weaver.[33] Interestingly, a witness to this deed was Christopher Reynolds, and both Henry Reynolds (signing with his mark) and Christopher Reynolds witnessed two other deeds by Tarleton within a few months.[34] The will of Henry Reynolds is dated 11 February 1726 and proved on 28 April 1729.[35] Legatees were his wife Elizabeth, son John, daughters Patience, Dorcas Bowin (wife of John Bowin), Elizabeth Johnson , and son-in-law John Weaid[Wade?]. The appraisal is dated 23 June 1729.[36] The daughter Elizabeth Johnson was apparently the wife of John Johnson, for on 18 March 1746, half of the Henry Reynolds tract was sold by John Johnson Jr.[37] Note that this Henry Reynolds was a weaver who could not sign his name, two circumstances which tend to separate him from the descendants of Christopher Reynolds. [1] Virginia Patent Book 1, p450. [2] Some have speculated that the Crosse Creek mentioned in the patent was in another county. However, a later patent adjoining the John Hucks patent was located on Smith’s Fort Creek, later called Gray’s Creek, in northern Surry. John Hucks married the daughter of Thomas Gray, after whom the creek was named and is mentioned frequently in early Surry records. [3] Virginia Colonial Abstracts, Beverley Fleet, Vol. 3, p284 speaks of a patent to Francis Grey of 20 August 1663 due by assignment from Thomas Reynolds dated 2 February 1651/2, which Grey then assigned to John Patem. There is no patent recorded to any of the three men which matches this description. [4] Surry County Deed Book 1, p57. [5] Virginia Colonial Abstracts, Beverley Fleet, Vol. 3, p152. The record is the assignment of militia companies, in which one is described as covering the area on the “lower end” of Charles City County “and 23 persons at Chepokes to the howse of Tho. Reynolds.” Chippoakes Creek was the boundary between Charles City County and Surry County. [6] Surry County Deed Book 1, p118. [7] Surry County Deed Book 1, p115.

Five of the eight headrights named in the certificate were used by Henry Brakes on 13 March 1649/50, the same day as John Cabbidge’s patent. Two of the other three names were not used in patents, but Thomas Reynolds was surely the same person claimed by Cabbidge, a close neighbor of Lemuel Mason. [19] Virginia Patent Book 2, p196. [20] Lower Norfolk County Minute Book (Wills & Deeds) 1646-1651, p114. The name is written here as either “Thomas Ringold” or “Thomas Renyold”, but seems clearly to refer to the same person since Edwards was a neighbor.

[25] Lower Norfolk County Deed Book 4, p207 reproduced in Allied Families of Delaware…, Edwin Jaquett Sellers, p37. [26] Virginia Patent Book 8, p320. The 20 April 1694 patent by Charles Griffin for 208 acres at the head of Little Creek was granted to Charles Edgerton on 20 September 1661 then assigned to Edward Holms and William Olifant, and by them sold “to Thomas Reynolds and by the said Reynolds sold and assigned to Robert Blake” whose son and heir Arthur Blake sold to John Snayle. John Snayl then sold the land on 14 June 1684, thus putting an envelope around the timeframe. [27] Surry County Court Orders 1671-91, p47. [28] Virginia Patent Book 6, p650 and Virginia Patent Book 7, p576. We know this was the same Henry Reynolds because the four headrights claimed in the 1687 patent were identical to four names used for the 1678 patent. In each case the four names were listed in the same sequence, matching the names and their sequence in the Arthur Allen certificate of 1674. [29] Surry County Court Orders 1671-91, p117.

Part of the index to recorded copies of land grants issued by the agents of the Fairfax Proprietary between 1690 and 1781 and by the Commonwealth between 1786 and 1874. Original and recorded surveys are also indexed when available. The collection is housed in the Archives at the Library of Virginia. Area Colonial Settlements Thomas Albin, Samuel Thacker, and William King obtained the earliest Proprietor’s land grant in the area east of the Catoctin Mountains and north of Goose Creek in January 1724 along the Potomac River.[4] The fertile land along the river was the first to be granted, primarily to tidewater area land speculators who established quarters there. The earliest known area resident was a man named [John Tuton] who was already living as a squatter on land in 1728 when Awbrey obtained his patent, a point of which terminates “near the place where John Tuton lives on.” By 1742, Tuton no longer lived there.[5] New Page 4 ...1716 08 Jan; [John] Jan Smith, jm V.

He and his wife’s ages were both checked in the age categories of (45 years and up) in the 1820 census records for Crawford County , Indiana . Ten years later, in the 1830 census, he and his wife’s ages were checked in the age categories of (90-100 years) and (80-90 years), respectively. On the next census taken in 1840 his wife’s age was checked as (60-70 years). Both of their ages may have been checked incorrectly in the 1830 census since they are not compatible with her age as shown on the 1840 census or the ages of their children. If her age of 60-70 years, as noted on the 1840 census, and their age category differential of 10 years, as shown on the 1830 census, are both correct then their ages should have been listed as (60-70 years) for Jonas and (50-60 years) for his wife Eleanor in the 1830 census. These ages are more compatible with the birth dates of their children. On the basis of the above information it is reasonable to conclude that Eleanor was born between the years of 1770 and 1775 and Jonas Totten Sr. was born between the years of 1730 and 1775. As discussed above, we could further argue that Jonas Totten Sr. was probably born between the years of 1760 and 1770. It appears that Jonas Sr. and his wife Eleanor, who was often referred to as Ellender and Ellen, met and married in Georgia . Jonas, and/or his parents may have, like many others, originally located in Northeastern Georgia as persecuted British Loyalist. Records indicate that their three older children, Polly, Ellen and John were born in Georgia between the years of 1794 and 1804. Jonas Totten Sr. and his family moved to Crawford County , Indiana in 1809. Their youngest daughter, Bythena, was born between 1804 and 1810 in Georgia, Indiana or in between. Their younger son, Jonas Junior, was born in Crawford County in 1809. Jonas Senior remained in Crawford County until his death in September of 1837. Even though there were a number of land transactions between James and Jonas Totten Sr. in Crawford County , Indiana , their relationship was never recorded or handed down. It is interesting to note that Benjamin and Easter Totten and their descendents did not name any of their children Jonas. Neither did Jonas and his wife Eleanor and their descendents name any of their children Benjamin. Jonas and Eleanor’s birth states were confirmed together with that of their older son John Totten by the 1880 census. John had relocated and was listed in the household of his daughter, Elizabeth (Totten) Poe, in the Miller Co., Missouri 1880 census. It showed that he and his mother were born in Georgia and that his father was born in New York END COMMENT BY DONALD TOTTEN ON GEORGE TEATOR AND ESTER Tennessee and Kentucky Tottens thought very highly of their stepfather, George Teater Senior and their stepbrother Perris Teater. Family records state that Perris Teater was a circuit preacher and rode muleback to different community churches on a regular basis. James Totten (b.1787) and his wife Polly chose to name one of their sons Parris Teater Totten. The names of Parris and Teater were carried down in some of the family branches for a number of generations An entry under Births list: “Ester Teater, formerly Easter Totten born 1750.” The entry under Deaths shows the death of his grandmother Easter Totten as: “Easter Teater, formerly Easter Totten died Feb. 1834 at the age of 84 years.” She would have therefore been born sometime between Feb. 1749 and Feb. 1750. The Easter Totten birth year of 1755 has also been circulated in a number of documents END COMMENT BY DONALD TOTTEN ON JAMES TOTTEN James, who was born in 1787/1788 was not born in this immediate area. Older family correspondence indicates that James Totten was born near Ashville, Buncombe County , North Carolina . His North Carolina birth state is verified by 1850, 1860 and 1870 census recordsEstablished in 1818, Crawford County is located in Southern Indiana with the Ohio River as it's southern boarder. Thomas Stroud was the first non-native settler of Crawford County, Indiana, as indicated by the resources one the additional historical facts page, which were graciously abstracted by Lance Stroud - a descendant of Thomas Stroud. END CRAWFORD IND GENWEB Early settlers of Crawford County were Peter Peckinpaugh, who moved back to Kentucky for fear of Indians but returned later, Gorry Jones, Henry Green, James Totten, Henry Fullenwider, William Mcay, Andrew and Joseph Kinkaid, Moses Smith and Robert Fields.

The colonel's part is separated from the rest by a stone wall. Doctor H. H.Deen, who has a large practice at Leavenworth." James Totten, who was a very interesting character was appointed sheriff of Crawford County in 1825. A Joseph FOWLER was among those who settled at Fort Boonesborough south of present-day Lexington, Kentucky (Fayette County) in 1775 with Daniel Boone and several members of the BARNETT family, including a Joseph BARNETT. A Joseph Fowler (Rev. War Patriot from Maryland) was also in Boone, KY in 1820 along with a Benjamin Fowler. Boone, KY is just across the border from Ohio. Also, a Joseph Fowler transferred Ohio lands in 1804. They may have been descendants of Samuel Fowler and Helen Bridgall. This is a loose connection between the Fowlers and Joseph Barnett, possibly a clos relative of Elizabeth Barnett. Also on the list of Fort Boonesborough settlers are James and Mary ELLIS. They were the parents of Nathan ELLIS whose daughter, Margaret, married David Carson, probable parents of Nancy Ann Carson, wife of Benjamin Nicholas Fowler.

Her son was reared with the Indians and released in 1768 the same day the WHitman brothers also listed as Orphans were apprenticed out by the Augusta Court. WHitmans being the wifes family of James Totten son of Benjamin Totten Sr. Andrew miller left to the old 96th South Carolina and shown on the tax list with William Teter and Peter Tutten later spelled Totten of the Longcraine Cedar, Springs Presbyteiran Church.. Then Benjamin Totten would of been raised in the area of the Old 96th South Carolina with a cousin Peter Totten a man named William Teter and his gaurdian Andrew Miller who returned to Washington Co a. Its noted that Joeph Fowlers family many Fowlers were present there. Jon Totten Jr chose Joseph H Fowler as his gaurdian a soldier of Daniel Boones Fort during the sige of Boones bourough. Other persons on the Estate were Parris Teator George Teator Sr William Totten and Joseph H Totten. There is no record of of Joseph H Totten ever being recorded as a Hicks it was just pain H. It seems more obviuos he was named for Jospeh H Fowler. There was a Joseph Hicks Totten but he was a a nephew a son of Jospeh H Totten son of brother James Totten. Joseph Totten in his will named Peter Totten Samuel Hiaght hedyt hite ect and he named his youngest daughter Esther. It appears then that Esther Fowler was the wife of Benjamin Totten Sr and a wife of George Teator Sr. The next to arrive on a list with many personalities from the French Walloon and Dutch Huguenot communties of New York was George Teator 1st recorded 1739 in Orange Co Va. He was recorded as Jeter also a French variant of Teater. he was next recorded in Frderick Co Va as George Teator then is shown in North Carolina 1752 with a Samuel and Jacob Teeder in the Edgecombe courts. This was the general migration route for those called the Jersey Settlers of Rowan Co North Carolina. he is listed there as Teeder Teeter with a Jacob Teeder Teater and Joseph Teater 1759 to 1752. He lived amoung most of the George Teator of Garrad kentuckys famiies the frosts the Van cleaves boones creassons Rays Fletchers griffiths and many others. This would have been estimated the father of George Teator of Washington Co Va and Garrard Kentucky. Perhaps married a Thompson sometime in the year 1730 to 1734 in Orange Co Va. Perhaps he became a widower and left his son George Teator behind with in laws or relatives there in Frederick Co Va.. Both Dr Jean Touton a French Hugeunot and Ffrancis Tettord a Wallon or Hugunot were on the same documents of King Phillips War. It appears both families records run together all the way over 200 yrs to Garrad Kentucky and beyond. All the Fowlers Teators Tottens many in laws all crossed the Ninepartners, example Samuel Harris the brother in law of George Teator Jr. Lowrence Teder Teatrd Teeter ect lived nearby there . It appears he was named after the Lawrence family Laurence family and the DNA results of Parris Teator line of Garrad Kentucky match with part of the Lawrence family the Lounsburys who were nieghbors in Duthess Co with the Lowrence Teeter estimated a son or grandson of Francis Tettord. It appears the Teators Tottens Fowlers were all French backgrounds,intermarried with Dutch Scotch Spanish Portguese Huguenotsof the erly Huguenot enclaves.. 1781 A John Totten who served in a Greenebrier unit Lord Dunmores war same regiment 1774 with Sgt George Teator of washington co fincaslte was later on the muster roll of Thomas Ingles Co with Benjamin Totten 1781 Thomas Ingles and andrew miler being step brothers Andrew Miller being the gaurdian of Benjamin Totten when he was a boy. The following year Benjamin Totten was living at the Middle fork of the Holston where George Teators property was from 1770 til 1783 . Arron Lewis the Captian there estimated a nephew of Captian Thomas Lewis of the Nine Partners of Dutchess Co NY also shown to have collected taxes from Lowerence Teder Teeter in 1722 1723 also neighbors.Arron Lewis signed as witness for George Teator on the sale of this property in 1783 and was shown lving Nearby George Teator 1787 in Madison Kentucky.. The Lawrence and teaters were close with the oiles or owlers such names appered in the French Indian War as Teeter Owler The middle name L such as Samuel L Teator James L Teater may have stood for Lawrence.. In theory my estimated conclusion is that Lowrence Tetter of the Ninepartners was a grandson of Francis Tettord a French Wallon who migrated with the Lawrence and Lounsburys from around Norwich England. There was marriage somewhere between the 2 families. . Lowerence Teeter a father of George Teator Orange Co Frederick Co and Rowan Co NC. A father of George Teator Garrard Kentucky. Peter Totten mentioned at the Nine partners estimated grandson of Dr Jean Touton john totten. a later John Tuton maybe a brother of Peter or a cousin migated from Albany New York to Fairfax Va then Greenbrier where he and wife lady Gonzalva Gonzales ect where killed 1755 leaving his son Benjamin Totten a Indian captive returned the same time as the Whitmans brothers and Thomas Ingles from years of Indian captivity. Estimated in 1779 Benjamin Totten married Esther Fowler in the old 196th South Carolina and returned to Montgomery co Vato join his older brother John Totten via Orange Co NC by 1780. DNA evidence links with 4 matchs George Teater Jr to to the Walllon familes of Wngland that came ther in the 1550s it also links Parris Teator to the Lounnsburys also of the same area near by the Walllon Church of Norwitch England. This familIes records run alongside the Tottens and Teeters of the the Ninepartners. Other such records such as George teators brother in law Samuel Harris also stated he was born at the Ninpartners Dutchess Co New York. The name Clinton has no reference to the Clinton family it is a township in New York. The intial C is moore referenced to the name Carpenter. The intial H shows to be Hiaght of Samuel Hiaght Joseph Fowlers will. Notify Administrator about this message?
