JAMES BAYTOP, OF SPKINGFIKLD, GLOUCESTER COUNTY, VIRGINIA, AND HIS WIFE, LUCY TALIAFEEEO CATLETT, OF ""TIMBERNECK/" GLOUCESTER COUNTY, VIRGINIA, THIS PAMPHLET IS MOST LOVINGLY DEDICATED. William Carter Stubbs. PREFACE. 1235103 For many years the author of this pamphlet has been collecting data relative to the Catlett family of the United States. So far as our extensive investigations have been made, the only immigrants of this name to this country at any time were Col. John and his two minor sons, Nicholas and Thomas, who came over in 1650 and settled on the Eappahannock Eiver in Virginia. Therefore every one bearing this name must trace his descent back to Col. John or his two minor sons. Mr. W. G-. Stannard, Editor of the Virginia Historical Magazine and Secretary of the Virginia Historical So- ^.., entertains Y ciety—the highest authority on Virginia genealogies— )^ the same opinion. With this opinion, every one bearing this name, ^- wherever found, has been requested by letter (sometimes several), to give all the information possessed or obtainable, of her or his branch and its history. Many of these letters are still unanswered, and therefore no additional information obtained. It is reasonably certain that a goodly number of families of this name scattered throughout the country are still unrevealed, and therefore cannot be named in these pages. In all, several hundred letters have been written and many responses obtained. In addition, court records, land books and family Bibles—yes, even cemeteries, with their almost forgotten tombstones—have been levied upon for information. With all these aids, much valuable data have been collected and arranged, and, while thoroughly conscious of incompleteness, it is deemed best to publish what has been obtained. AVhen this investigation began it was deemed an easy task. Since beyond our immediate branch, few members of the Catlett names were known to us, but, as our researches extended, family after family, branch after branch, were revealed, until our correspondence extended to nearly every State in the Union. With the revelations already made, it is safe to say that the number of descendants of the original immigrant. Col. John Catlett, now living in this country reach far into thousands. The name is purely English, — ii Preface. derived from Catt's lot—upon which the first of the name settled passing through the various changes: Catts' lot—Catelot—Catlett. Its history is given in the extracts from English records published elsewhere. It is impossible to give the names of all those who have aided us in this work, since their number is too large, but we wish to return here grateful thanks to every one who has contributed in any way towards the accomplishment of the work herein presented. The hope is entertained that the recital of the deeds and virtues of our ancestors may inspire every living member with fresh determination to excel in every good work which goes to make "perfect men and women." : THE IMMIGRANT. Col. Jolm Catlett came in 1650 to Eappahaunock county, Vir- ginia (now Essex county), from Sittingbourne, County Kent, Eng- land, naming the parisli in which he located for Sittingbourne, his birthplace. His home place, "Green Hill" was at the mouth of Golden Vale Creek (now Essex county). With him came his son, Nicholas Catlett, and half-brothers, Ealph and Edward Eowzie, followed later by his son, Thomas Catlett. (See patents.). Catherine and Sarah Eowzie, wife and sister of Ealph Eowzie, came later as headrights of Capt. Thomas Lucas, English Eecoeds. The family was seated in County Kent, England, as early as 1464, when John Catelot bequeathed "fourpence for the light stand- ing in the middle of Bearsted Church before the high cross." The will of John Catlott, 1499, bequeathed twenty shillings to the reparation of the steeple of Bearsted Church, The Virginia Historical Magazine contains the following from the History of County Kent, England, printed by Harris in 1917, in three volumes: "Catts Place, with the manor belonging thereto, called Catletts, otherwise Salmon, is situated in Brenchley parish, about a mile northward from Brenchley Town, but within the Hundred of Twy- ford, being held of the manor of Yalding. The mansion was anciently the residence of Hugh de Catte, from whom it acquired its name. His descendants continued to possess it until tlie Eeign of Henry VI (1442). (Vol. Ill, 223.) "Sittingbourne lies about the middle of the north side of Kent, in the road between Eochester and Canterbury, and about a mile southward from Milton, in the Bailiwick and Hundred of Milton. It is the Deanery of Sittingbourne and Diocese of Canterbury, a Vicarage valued in the King's Books at £10 per annum. The church, a large and handsome building in good repair, is dedicated to St. Michael. In it are several Memorials of the name of Cate- LET. (Vol. I, p. 28Jf.)" History of County Kent, Hasted^ Vol. II, 369, contains the following "Catts Place, with the manor belonging to it, called Catlcfs Salmon, is likevrise situated in Brenchley parish, within the Hun- dred of Twyford, The mansion, situated about a mile north from the village of Brenchley, was anciently the residence of Hugh de Catte, who implanted his name upon it. His descendants con- — N \ 2 Descendants of Col. John Catlett. tinued in possession nntil the Reign of King Henry YI" (1442) (page 369). "Lawrence Catlote, of the parish of Great Chart, ])y his will, proved 1469, devised his messuage called The Place, in Chart street, on the death of Joane, his wife, to John, son of ISTicholas Phylipp. * * * About the same time, Eowland Clarke sold twent.v-one acres to William Catlett, who. Trinity Term, Anno 4th Elizabeth (1562), levied a fine of his estate here. He died, Anno 5th Elizabeth, possessed of 100 acres of land and twenty acres of wood in this parish (Tong), of which Thomas, his son, levied a fine in Easter term, Anno 5th Elizabeth (1563). Rowland Clarke sold a moietv of this manor onlv." (Hasted's Kent, Vol. II, page 60J,.) The Virginia Historical Magazine, Yol. Ill, p. 63, contains the following from Chancery Proceedings, Charles I, C. C. 39, 20th April, 16JfS: "Humbly complaining, sheweth unto y'e honour yo'r orrators: George Catlett ve elder, of Blackwell, in County Middlesex, gent., Judeth Catlett," Thomas Catlett, William and Edward Catlett, sonnes of ye s'd Judeth and of Thomas Catlett, late of Sitting- bourne, in ye County of Kent, deceased, by ye s'd Judeth Catlett, their mother and guardian, George Catlett ye younger, of Sand- wich, in ye County of Kent, marriner, and John Catlett, sonne of John Catlett ye younger, yo'r orrators, George Catlett ye elder, and Thomas Catlett, deceased, George Catlett ye younger, being all sonnes of John Catlett ye elder, late of Sittingbourne, in ye County of Kent aforesaid, gentleman, deceased, "Whereas, heretofore, yt. abt.

YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 480191 ASTOR, LENOX AN© TILDEN FOUNO*TlONi, R 1909 L Copyright, 1900 by Beverley B. Munford TO MY WIFE PREFACE This work is designed as a contribution to the volume of information from which the historian of the future will be able to prepare an impartial and comprehensive narra- tive of the American Civil War, or to speak more accurately —The American War of Secession. No attempt has been made to present the causes which precipitated the secession of the Cotton States, nor the states which subsequently adopted the same policy, except Virginia. Even in regard to that commonwealth the effort has been limited to the consideration of two features prominent in the public mind as constituting the most potent factors in determining her action—namely, devo- tion to slavery and hostility to the Union. That the people of Virginia were moved to secession by a selfish desire to extend or maintain the institution of slavery, or from hostility to the Union, are propositions seemingly at variance with their whole history and the interests which might naturally have controlled them in the hour of separation. Yet how widespread the impression and how frequent the suggestion from the pen of historian and publicist that the great and compelling motives which led Virginia to secede were a desire to extend slavery into the territories and to safeguard the institution within her own borders, coupled with a spirit of hostility to the Union and the ideals of liberty proclaimed by its founders.

It is to be doubted whether any parish has, in its present possession, the complete record of its history and activity since its inception. Carelessness and fire seem to be the destroying elements, whereby documents of intrinsic worth, particularly valuable to a compiler of such a work as this, have been lost forever. From the foundation of this parish in 1816 down to the year 1831, no information, other than meagre generalities, is obtain­ able. The vestry minutes and church records were in the pos­ session of the Rev. Edward K. Fowler, and were destroyed when the old Mansion House was burned. In fact no church records back of 1870 are now in existence, lost probably in the same fire. However, the gap has been imperfectly bridged by refer­ ences to family records, old scrap books, clippings, and Quinlan's "History ofSullivan Co~tnty." I am particularly indebted to Major John Waller, whose keen memory at the age of 90 has enabled me to clear away many doubts regarding the past, and to present to the parish this ac­ count of its history.

  • Learning About the New Deal and the Depression with a Trip to The
    Learning About the New Deal and the Depression with a Trip to the Civilian Conservation Corps Museum Mary Sandkam, Richmond Originally published in the November-December 2017 issue of VaHomeschoolers Voice Virginia is such a wonderful state to live in for teaching history; we can immerse ourselves in almost any time period by taking a field trip within only a day’s drive. Colonial times? Hop into the car and head to Jamestown or Williamsburg. Revolutionary War? Head to Yorktown. The Civil War? Head to Richmond, Petersburg, or just about anywhere in the state. Civil Rights? Head to museums in Richmond and Washington, D.C. These are all straightforward field trips, though. What happens when you get to more esoteric topics? Most home- schoolers will agree that everything is learned more easily when experienced firsthand, so a harder-to-study topic, like the New Deal and the Depression, definitely deserves a field trip. In this case, you head to the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Museum and then, if you have time, you head to CCC projects around the state. The CCC Museum is located in Pocahontas State Park, in Chesterfield County, 20 miles from downtown Richmond, and is one of just a few such museums in the nation. The hours vary seasonally, but you can call the park (804-796-4255) for information and to arrange group tours. It is a small museum but is chock full of information, and the park ranger on staff when we visited was incredibly helpful in answering all of our questions. The CCC was created by Franklin D.
