Descendants of James Patterson Descendants of James Patterson By Catherine Reuther Table of Contents Descendants of James Patterson 1 Source Citations 508 Name Index 563 Produced by: Catherine Reuther : 20 Jan 2016 Descendants of James Patterson 1-James Patterson James married Mary Ferrell. They had two children: Abraham and Alexander. 2-Abraham Patterson, son of James Patterson1 and Mary Ferrell1, was born in 1756 in County Derry, Ireland,2 died on 27 Jul 1806 in Chester district, South Carolina3 at age 50, and was buried in Old Purity Presbyterian Church, Chester, South Carolina.4 General Notes: Abraham Patterson was considered a man of means in Ireland. He had a man and a woman servant and kept a horse and buggy. He was a merchant and a farmer. In coming to America, Abrahan settled in Baltimore, Maryland, for two years and he is said to have worked at a tan yard part of this period. While living there, the baby Margaret was born in 1804. She was called Peggy. Abraham wrote a number of poems which were published in book form in Baltimore in 1805. [2] Abraham (John in Lena's notebook) was probably a cousin to Betsy Patterson's father, William (wife Dorcas) of Baltimore. Betsy married Jerome Bonapart (Napoleon's younger brother) December 24, 1803. She secured a divorce in Maryland about 1812 or 1813, after Napoleon, who did not recognize the marriage, married Jerome to Catherine of Wurttemberg. [3] Abraham preferred to live in the North a "free" country since he did not approve of slavery [Maryland was actually a slave state - CAR], but Margaret wanted to come south, where her sister Mrs. Mollie Johnson lived in South Carolina. [2] Abraham may have had a brother, R. A. Patterson, who also immigrated to America. [2] Abraham was given an "English" education and became a prosperous farmer and merchant in Ireland as well a an elder in the Presbyterian church. Having been invloved in the controversy over Ireland's freedom, Abraham and Margaret fled to America in 1803, coming to Baltimore, Maryland. They remained there two years, during which time Abraham published a book of poetry and daughter Margaret was born. They moved to Chester County, SC, because Margaret wanted to be close to her sister, Mrs. Mollie Johnston. In 1806, on a visit to Charleston, Abraham contracted yellow fever and died. [1] In 1804 there is an Abraham Patterson, grocer, living in Baltimore, Maryland, at 16, Pitt Street, Fells Point, West Side From George Street. [5] Abraham Patterson, a native of Ireland, died on Thursday, 24 July 1806, in Chester district, South Carolina, of a violent fever. Abraham was 47 [born about 1759] and was born in Ireland. He left a wife and eight children. [4] Abram and Margaret Colwell Patterson are buried at the Old Purity Church two miles from Chester. [1] Descendants of John & Robert Ellison, by Clara Ellison Erath, 1972 [2] Job Caldwell Patterson Family by Mrs Olin W Patterson - History of Stewart County GA, 1958, by Helen E Terrill [3] Lena Terry's notebook and "The Amazing Mrs. Bonaparte" [4] City Gazette and Daily Advertiser, South Carolina, 5 Aug 1806, p. 3 (Genealogybank.com) Produced by: Catherine Reuther : 20 Jan 2016 1 Descendants of James Patterson [5] U.K. and U.S. Directories, 1680-1830, Baltimore Directory, 1804 (Ancestry.com) Noted events in his life were: • Alt. Death: 24 Jul 1806, Chester district, South Carolina.5 Abraham married Margaret Caldwell, daughter of Job Colwell and Nancy McDowell, on 13 Jul 1789 in Ireland.6 Margaret was born in 1772 in Ireland,6 died on 5 Feb 1825 in South Carolina7 at age 53, and was buried in Old Purity Presbyterian Church, Chester, South Carolina.4 Another name for Margaret was Margaret Colwell.1 They had eight children: Mary Ann, James, Elizabeth D, Jane A, Job Caldwell, Alexander, Sarah Ferrell, and Margaret M. Marriage Notes: Lena Terry's notebook lists the same children found in the Patterson/Terry bible pages for Abraham and Margaret as being children of John Patterson and Sarah Ferrell. I believe the bible pages show the correct parents. General Notes: Margaret and Abraham moved from Baltimore, Maryland, to Chester Co, South Carolina, because Margaret wanted to be near her sister Mrs. Mollie Johnston. [1] In 1806, Abraham died leaving Margaret a widow of 34, newly immigrated to the United States, and with eight children between the ages of 16 and 5. There were several Caldwells in the 1810 and 1820 Censuses for Chester County, SC, so perhaps they were relatives of Margaret's, in addition to her sister Mollie, who helped her through this time. In the 1810 Census, Margaret Patterson is living in Chester Village, Chester County, South Carolina. In the house are one male under age 10 (Alexander), one male between 10 & 15 (Job), two females under 10 (Sarah & Margaret), 1 female between 10 & 15 (Jane), two females between 16 & 25 (Mary Ann & Eliza), and one female between 26 & 44 (Margaret). In the 1820 Census, Margaret is living in Chester County, South Carolina. Living in the house are one male age 26 to 45 (James), one female under 10 (daughter Margaret), two females between 10 & 16, and one female over 45 (Margaret). Perhaps the census taker placed his count in the wrong column, and there should be two females between 16 & 26 (daughters Sarah, 20, & Margaret, 19). Margaret has one female slave between 26 & 45. Margaret died in 1825 of palsy at her sister's, Mrs. Mollie Johnson. [2] The Patterson/Terry family bible pages list under deaths Margaret Patterson on 5th February 1825. [1] Descendants of John & Robert Ellison, by Clara Ellison Erath, 1972 [2] Job Caldwell Patterson Family by Mrs Olin W Patterson - History of Stewart County GA, 1958, by Helen E Terrill 3-Mary Ann Patterson8 was born on 13 May 1790 in Ireland,9 died on 2 Sep 1854 in Talbot County, Georgia10 at age 64, and was buried in Ephesus Presbyterian Church, Woodland, Georgia.11 Mary married Alexander Cabeen,12 son of Thomas Cabeen and Isabella Euphemia Graham, on 28 Dec 1815 in probably Chester Co, South Carolina.13 Alexander was born about 1782 in North Carolina,14 died on 11 Jan 1854 in Talbot County, Georgia10 about age 72, and was buried in Ephesus Presbyterian Church, Woodland, Georgia.11 Another name for Alexander was Alex Cabeau.15 Produced by: Catherine Reuther : 20 Jan 2016 2 Descendants of James Patterson Marriage Notes: Married on Thursday, the 28th ult.[28 Dec 1815], by the Rev. Robert B. Walker, Mr. Alex'r Cabeen to the amiable Miss Mary Ann Patterson, both of Chester District (Jan. 2, 1816, Tuesday). [1] [1] The South Carolina Magazine of Ancestral Research, SCMAR, Volume IV, Number 2, Spring, 1976 - Marriage and Obituary Notices from the South-Carolina State Gazette and Columbian Advertiser (Ancestry.com) General Notes: On 16 March 1809, Alexander Cabeen married Margaret Anderson in Chester. [5] In the 1810 Census, Alexander Cabeen is living in Chester County, South Carolina. Living in the house are one male age 26 to 44 (Alexander was about 28 in 1810) and one female between 16 and 25 (wife Margaret). Alexander owns four slaves. Alexander and Margaret's daughter Caroline was born in Chester District, South Carolina, about 1810. [6] Living next door in 1810 is Effy Cabeen. Living in the house are one male between 10 & 15, one female between 10 & 15, one female between 16 & 25, and one female over 45. Effy may be Alexander's widowed mother. She owns 3 slaves. In the 1790 and 1800 Census, there is a Thomas Cabeen in Chester County. Thomas is the only Cabeen found on the census for Chester County in those years. He is probably Alexander's father. Thomas Cabeen and Effy Cabeen, wife of Thomas, are buried at the Old Purity Presbyterian Church Cemetery in Chester, South Carolina, not too far from Abraham and Margaret Patterson. A marker honoring Revolutionary soldiers buried in the cemetery lists Thomas Cabeen, 1752-1801. [Old Purity Presby. Church Cemetery transcription] Alexander's first wife Margaret died between 1810 and 1815. On 28 December 1815, Alexander married Mary Ann Patterson, probably in Chester County where they both lived. In the 1820 Census, Ancestry.com lists an Alexander Cabun and an Effy Cabun on the index for Chester Co., South Carolina. So far, am unable to find them on the images. In the 1830 Census, Alexander Cabeen is living in Upson County, Georgia. Living in the house are 1 male, age 40-50 (Alexander), 1 female, age 15-20, (Alexander's daughter Caroline, abt 20 in 1830) and 1 female, age 30-40 (Mary Ann). Alexander owns 8 slaves. In 1832 Alexander Cabeen participated in the Georgia Cherokee Land Lottery to obtain land in the northeastern part of the state that had recently belonged to the Cherokee Indians. Alexander was living in Upson County at the time of the lottery. The land he obtained in the 25th District, Second Section, Cherokee. The land was "granted previous to the first day of January, 1838". [3] Produced by: Catherine Reuther : 20 Jan 2016 3 Descendants of James Patterson On 10 March 1833, Alexander's daughter Caroline A Cabeen married Blount S Garrett in Upson County, Georgia. [4] They later moved to Alabama. [6] Between 1830 and 1840, probably about 1837, Alexander and Mary moved to Talbot County, the next county over to the southwest. On 4 Oct 1837 Richard Bailey sold 202.5 acres (in Talbot county) to Alexander Cabeen for $4000. Barnard Hill and C. D. Crittenden were witnesses. The deed was recorded 10 Nov 1837.

  • James Cooper Stewart
    THE JAMES C STEWART MELBOURNE CONNECTION Adrian Fletcher – last update 15 January 2015 afletch at paradoxplace dot com www.ciaofamiglia.com James Cooper Stewart (1836 – 1919 (83)) was the son of another James Stewart (a master house painter) and his wife Mary (May) (Falconer) who lived in Brechin, north of Edinburgh. Their names appear in the 1841, 1851 and 1861 (without James jnr) Scottish censuses and we have managed to trace hand written registry records of some of their ancestor births, marriages and deaths back to 1777. The Stewart’s brownstone residence at 62 High Street, Brechin, is now a dilapidated boarded up shopfront which can be driven past via Google Earth. This is the record of James Cooper’s birth in Brechin in 1836. “Cooper” was May Falconer’s mother’s maiden name. Stewart emigrated from Liverpool to Melbourne (“for his health”) as a paying first class passenger aboard the famous sailing clipper “The Marco Polo” (“The Fastest Ship in the World”) in 1857. Melbourne was then 22 years old, the gold rush had been on since the early part of the decade and Victoria itself had been created in 1851. During this voyage he kept a diary and we have both a photocopy and typed transcript of this as well as a copy of part of the passenger list. The original diary has not been located yet. The diary is written in the form of a letter dated 27 September 1857 to James’ father back in Brechin: The opening paragraph covers leaving home in Brechin on Monday June 1 1857 and “the pangs of grief which rent my breast as I tore myself from all I loved”.

  • The Burial Grounds of Putney London SW15
    1 The Burial Grounds of Putney London SW15 Introduction The chronology of Putney’s burial grounds is broadly as follows: St Mary’s Church, Putney Bridge: 12th/13th century to 1763. Putney Old Burial Ground (POBG), Upper Richmond Road: 1763 to 1854. Putney Lower Common Cemetery (PLCC), Mill Hill Road: 1855 to 1891. Putney Vale Cemetery (PVC), Kingston Road: 1891 to present. Closure dates are nominal and burials took place later, e.g. in family graves or in special circumstances. They continued at St Mary’s, in the churchyard (in large numbers) until 1854 and inside the church until 1863; in POBG until 1900; and in PLCC until the 1950s – even as late as 1975. St Mary’s Church The parish church was Putney’s only burial 1797 ground for some 500 years. St Mary’s is not mentioned by name until c. 1290, though there may have been a church or chapel of ease (a satellite of St Mary’s Wimbledon) on the site as early as the 12th century. Nothing remains of those early churches and the oldest part of the present building is the tower, which dates from c. 1450. St Mary’s was severely damaged by a storm in 1703, was rebuilt, apart from the tower, in 1836, and extensively damaged by an arson-started fire during the night of 6th/7th June 1973, with only the walls, columns and, again, the 15th century tower surviving. Rebuilding, to a design by Ronald Sims, with the altar, unusually, on the north side and stained glass by Alan Younger (who also designed the stained glass above the entrance to Putney Exchange) was completed in 1982.

  • 13. Upper Thames
    13. Upper Thames Key plan Description The Upper Thames Natural Landscape Area follows the upper reaches of the Thames within Greater London, from Hampton Court and Bushy Park, through Richmond Park and Kew, Dukes Meadow, Barnes and Fulham to Battersea Park. The landform is flat and the whole area is within the largely still tidal Thames floodplain, with the exception of minor outcrops at Dukes Meadows and Putney. However, a slight slope between Fulham and Chelsea follows the overground railway line to Clapham Junction. The Upper Thames area is underlain by London Clay, with superficial 13. Upper Thames Upper 13. deposits of river gravels (Kempton Park Gravel Formation), silts (Langley Silt Members) at Richmond, Hounslow and Battersea, and alluvium along the bed of the River Thames. The soils are generally deep loams, with seasonally wet deep clay along the banks of the River Thames from Teddington to Barnes. This attractive, meandering section of the Thames was historically a popular site for royal palaces and their associated parks. Those that remain are Hampton Court Palace, Bushy Park, Syon House and Park, Old Deer Park Gardens at Richmond and the Royal Botanic Gardens ENGLAND 100046223 2009 RESERVED ALL RIGHTS NATURAL CROWN COPYRIGHT. © OS BASE MAP 13. Upper Thames at Kew. Together they form a chain of high quality parks along the banks of the Thames. The formal parks are supplemented by a range of informal open spaces including Dukes Meadows at Chiswick, the London Wetland Centre in Barnes, Ham Common, the Ham Lands Nature Reserve and further east, Battersea Park. The sequence of open spaces is interspersed with the relatively dense historic settlements of Kingston upon Thames, Twickenham, Isleworth, Richmond upon Thames, Chiswick, Barnes, Putney, Wandsworth, Battersea, Fulham and Chelsea.

  • Filmrichmond|NEWSLETTER Hey, It’S Us Again, Coming to You from a Still Rather Sunny Richmond Upon Thames
    October 2013 filmrichmond|NEWSLETTER Hey, it’s us again, coming to you from a still rather sunny Richmond upon Thames. On the one hand we quite like this unseasonably warm weather but as the nights draw in - shouldn’t it be getting chilly? We just want to get our woolies out! Although we do appreciate that all of you on location at 6am will be hoping it stays warm for a little while longer. Sarah Hillman Sue Lewis 020 8487 5157 020 8487 5157 07764 614774 07882 705073 www.richmond.gov.uk/filmrichmond So, Barnes is our focus this time. The village has so much to offer; there’s the river Thames of course, with a good long stretch of it completely unspoilt by modern buildings; a picturesque pond surrounded by elegant Edwardian and Georgian properties; a Common with a variety of landscapes (clean cut grassed areas, wild grass and woodland and hidden pathways); the pretty town centre with a good selection of independent stores; Barn Elms Sports Centre, recently redeveloped with football and rugby pitches, a running track (waiting for redevelopment so currently looking very ‘period’) and newly built changing rooms. Barnes has a classic 1930s style library completely modernised inside; Old Barnes Cemetery, spookily overgrown, very atmospheric and surrounded by woodland; Barnes Station (on a leafy lane so could look like anywhere in the countryside) and of course, private properties in abundance (some of which are registered with us). Oh and unit parking isn’t a problem either with Barn Elms and the London Wetland Centre a hop, skip and a jump from wherever you may be.

  • Barnes Common and Mill Hill Conservation Area Study
    LONDON BOROUGH OF RICHMOND UPON THAMES Conservation Area Study Barnes Common no.32 & Mill Hill no.14 Conservation areas were introduced in the Civic Amenities Act 1967 and are defined as areas of ‘special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance’. Designation introduces a general control over the demolition of unlisted buildings and the felling or lopping of trees above a certain size. The objective of a conservation area study is to provide a clearly defined analysis of the character and appearance of the conservation area, defensible on appeal, to assist in development control decisions. Further, to address issues, which have been identified in the character appraisal process, for the enhancement or preservation of the conservation area. It is hoped that the process of the study and the finished document will stimulate public participation. Barnes Common Location, Landscape and Population Barnes Common is situated in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, to the south east of Barnes, and was formerly within Surrey. Its boundaries are well defined by Vine Road to the west, Beverley Brook to the north west, Ranelagh Avenue and the Rythe (a raised bank separating the Common from Barn Elms) to the north, an historic ditch separating it from adjoining Putney Lower Common to the east and to the south by the Upper Richmond Road. It was originally designated a conservation area in 1982 and extended in 1988 to include Beverley Road. Barnes Common comprises a series of open spaces separated by roads and railway lines.
