| 512 | Immigrated to Percy Twp., Newcastle District, Upper Canada about 1797. This rural area is now known as Percy Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario, Canada. The closest town of any size is Warkworth. Researcher Dick Bronson of Spokane, Washington, has linked Barnabas Brunson of Percy Township., Newcastle District, Upper Canada, back to Richard Bronson, a founder of both Hartford and Farmington, Connecticut. By the time Barnabas was born, his family had been in the United States for more than 100 years and Brunson descendants were numerous. Although Barnabas is believed to be the fourth son of Moses and Hannah (Kelsey) Brunson, none of his known children were named after his parents. There is also no knowledge of what he is doing after he left Farmington, Connecticut, although he is believed to have moved to the MA/NY border area in the Green River/Hillsdale area of Columbia Co., perhaps for military service. The following was extracted from ancestry.ca Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution, 17 Vols. Volume 2, page 718. "Brunson, Barnabas, Alford. Corporal, Capt. Peter Ingersoll's co., Col. David Brewer's (9th) regt.; muster roll dated Aug. 1, 1775; enlisted May 24, 1775; service, 2 mos. 1 week, 5 days; also, company return [probably Oct., 1775]." Volume 2, page 563. Bronson, Barnabas, Alford. Capt. Peter Ingersoll's co., Col. Rufus Putnam's (late David Brewer's) 9th regt.; order for bounty coat or its equivalent in money dated Nov. 18, 1775. The following was extracted from Karen Black's web site details for Barnabas. Land records indicate that Barnabas moved into Canada about 1797, accompanied by his second wife Hannah, his older sons Amasa and Orsemus and his daughter Lavinia. Lavinia may have already been married to Reuben Mallory. Although his exact relationship to Barnabas is unclear, William Brunson also moved into the Newcastle District at this as did other founding families from the Hartford, Connecticut area (e.g. the descendants of Rev. Samuel Stone), most of the families probably attracted by the virgin timber in what was still a primordial forest. A list of Original Settlers of Percey (sic) indicates that Barnabas occupied Lot 23 in the fourth Concession and that his son Amasa occupied Lot 24 in the second Concession, but subsequent records indicate that the reverse is true. Other household head census records indicate that Barnabas still had one male under 16 living with him in 1804 and 1805, probably Philander. Possiby Philander had married by 1810 as Barnabas now had one female and one male over 16 living with him and his wife. Although Barnabas and Amasa Brunson were not officially recorded as Loyalists, they somehow qualified for substantial land grants along the Percy/Seymour Twp. border. Barnabas' property was located on Lot 24 in Conc.2. Various land records refer to Barnabas' holdings as either Percy or Seymour Twp., but the Brunsons themselves knew their home as Cramahe or "Crammie" in Newcastle District, Upper Canada, although by 1870 their official postal address was Warkworth, Ontario. Brunson, Barnabas' will written 18 Sep 1820, while he resided at "Percy Township, District of Newcastle, Upper Canada" which names his children and specifies his grandson Barnabas as his chief heir. This will was probated 22 Feb 1822, presumably after Barnabas' death. Heirs included his beloved wife Hannah who kept all the furniture she had brought with her when he married her. His children received the following: 1. Orsonus received 5 pounds to be paid 2 years after B's death; 2. Amasa, who remained near his father, received 5 shillings; 3. Levineah, who married Reuben Mallory, received 2 pounds 11 shillings; 4. Abel, who was left behind in the States with another family, received 25 pounds to be paid in cattle and grain three years after B's decease; 5. Phylanien, who probably also had remained in the States, received 10 shillings. At first it seemed possible that Barnabas had at least one other son, since he left the bulk of his estate (specifically Lot 24, Con 2 in Percy Township and its livestock) to his grandson Barnabas Brunson (b.1806). The father of this grandson was not named. Here are some reasons why Barnabas may have left most his estate to his namesake: 1. he was Barnabas' namesake; 2. his uncles were already settled on their own land; 3. he was the oldest son of Barnabas' oldest son, inheriting the property because his father was dead; 4. he was the oldest son of Barnabas' oldest son Amasa who was already settled on his own land. In further support of this last reason is the fact that this grandson Barnabas (1806) named his own son Amasa. Information from Dick Bronson formely of Spokane, Washington also included sons William and Amos, but as there was no mention of either man in Barnabas' will and since William Bronson was still alive when the will was probated, it's doubtful he was Barnabas Brunson's son. However, he was probably some kind of relation since he received his Northumberland County property the same day Barnabas did. As to the will's failure to include Amos as an heir, possibly his name has been confused with Abel's over time. Amos-Abel may be the same person. In any case, little is known about any Amos, but much is known about Abel Brunson, who was also very much alive when the will was probated. Noteworthy is the fact that he named none of his numerous children after either his supposed father Barnabas or his supposed mother Charity. However, Abel was not raised by his father following his mother's premature death, remaining in the States when his father immigrated Upper Canada. As to the paternity of grandson Barnabas (b.1806), he is probably Amasa's son.

He stayed on the farm for nearly a year before deciding that farming was not for him. The family moved back to Mount Hawke to live with Millicent's grandmother. The family still continued to travel and by the time Millicent was through with her education, she had attended schools in Nancekuke, Mt Hawke, Barncoose, Pool and Redruth. Eventually, her father returned home and gained permanent employment at the South Crofty mine and the family moved to Agar Road on the Illogan Highway. The house was rented with a 99 year lease and 7 years later Arthur bought the freehold for 20 pounds. Millicent and Frederick immigrated to the United States leaving on November 20, 1920 and became United States Naturalized Citizens on 26 Jun 1941. In 1989, Millicent sold her home in Forest Park, Illinois and took up residence at the British Home for Retired Men and Women.

| 531 | James came out to Australia with his wife, Mary Kinsman and two small children. They left Cornwall in 1898 and settled in Chiltern Valley, Victoria where they had three other Australian born children. No further information about this family has been obtained as yet, but there may well be living descendants in Victoria or elsewhere in Australia? James Lander Willoughby died in Abermain, NSW in 1926. | Willoughby, James Lander (I5204)
|
| 532 | James is cited as being 44 in 1881 and 34 in 1871. In 1891 his age is given as 56 and in 1901 as 65. It appears that he was probably born in 1836, before Oliver and Sarah were married. His sister Elizabeth was baptised in August 1837 and probably born between the time of her parents marriage (April 1837) and the baptism date. The 1841 census has both Elizabeth (aged 4) and Ann (aged 2) at home, but James is not mentioned. | Willoughby, James (I5227)

| 535 | James' son, Frederick, is my father's grandfather. Frederick married a woman named Merle Black, they had my grandfather, Eugene, then Frederick died, and Merle abandoned my grandfather, and he ended up being passed around from relative to relative until he was about 16 years old.

| 537 | Jenny McIlmoyl is not the mother of all 16 of David Hunter Sr.'s children. She applied for a U.E. Land Grant in January 1793 claiming, 'being married and the Daughter of John McIlmoyle...' She is listed alternatively as Jenney Hunter and Jane McIlmoyle on the petitions. And although on the 1800 Township census for Edwardsburg there is a female head of household listed, in 1801 there is no female head of household. The 1810 township census for South Gower names all citizens and lists their ages individually. The female head of the Hunter household is 'Gette' and she is 27 years old. David's oldest son Samuel is listed as 18. Gette could not be his biological mother because she would have given birth to him when she was 9 years old. Alternatively, Jenny McIlmoyl, had she not died in 1801 as presumed, would have been about 54 years old when David's last child, Margaret was born in 1816. The 1817/18 Estate Files for David Hunter Sr. refer to the administratrix and widow as Getty Hunter which supports the idea that Jenny did not outlive her husband. | McIlmoyle, Jane Leah (I1639)

| 539 | John and Elizabeth farmed at C3S L57-58 in Kincardine Township. | Colwell, John (I6260)
|
| 540 | John emigrated to Nova Scotia about 1823. John Colwell and Mary Ann (Browning) Colwell, and their family of six children, moved to Huron County, Ontario, about 1835, settling near Goderich, and homesteading there. A brother, Edward, moved to Kincardine Township in Bruce County, Ontario, where several of John Colwell's children also settled, as did Samuel, an orphaned nephew of John Colwell. A sister, Ann (Colwell) McKnight moved to Toronto. The descentants of John Colwell and Mary Ann Browning soon became very numerous, and had large families. They married into many of the pioneer families in the Huron and Bruce Counties of Ontario. Their descendents number into the thousands, and are located across Canada, the United States, and beyond. The Colwell and Browning families were on the same ship emigrating to Canada. Mary Ann's father came west to Ontario to visit her and her family once. Evidently her family in "England sent money to her, on ocassions, as they were apparently quite weathly. Family tradition states that John Colwell and Mary Ann Browning, met on the ship emigrating to Canada, and that they were married soon after arriving. | Colwell, John (I6106)

| 542 | John Henry was ordained in the Church of England in 1824, and became vica of St. Mary's, Oxford. In 1832 he wrote "Lead Kindly Light." Defecting to the Church of Rome in 1845, he received his rodination and doctorate of divinity in 1846, and ultimately sttled in the Oratory at Edgbaston, Birmingham, England. He was created a Cardinal in the Roman Catholic Church in 1879 by Pope Leo XIII. Through his writings, he created a greater understanding of the Catholic Church. Cardinal John Henry Newman died in Birmingham on August 11, 1890. In 1893 the first Newman Club was formed at the University of Pennsylvania. John Henry Newman was born on 21st February, 1801, in London, the eldest son of a London banker. His family were ordinary church-going members of the Church of England, without any strong religious tendencies, though the young John Henry did learn at an early age to take a great delight in the Bible. He was sent to Ealing School in 1808, and it was there, eight years later, that he underwent a profound religious conversion, which was to determine the rest of his life as a quest for spiritual perfection. In 1817 he entered Trinity College, Oxford, where he was a very successful student. Five years later he was elected to a coveted Fellowship of leading Oriel College. He was ordained and worked, first as a curate in the poor Oxford Parish of Saint Clement’s, and a little later as Vicar of the University Church of Saint Mary the Virgin. There, his spiritual influence on his parishioners and the members of the University was truly enormous. He worked as a College Tutor, and a little later began to research the first of the many theological works which were to put him at the forefront of religious writers. In 1833 he went on a tour of the Mediterranean with a friend who was in very poor health. While in Sicily he himself fell desperately ill with fever. On his recovery it struck him that God had spared him to perform a special task in England. On his return home he eagerly set about organising what was to become know as the Oxford Movement. The Movement, which spread rapidly, was intended to combat three evils threatening the Church of England – spiritual stagnation, interference from the state, and doctrinal unorthodoxy. When studying the history of the early Christian Fathers in 1839, Newman received an unexpected shock, for it appeared that the position of his own Church bore a close resemblance to that of the early heretics. He was also worried when many of the English Bishops denounced one if his works a few years later – some not just denouncing but going out of the way to espouse heretical positions themselves. He decided to partly retire from Oxford, and, joined by a few others a little later, he moved to quarters at the nearby hamlet of Littlemore. For three years he lived a strict religious life, praying for light and guidance. By 1845 he saw his way clear, and on 9th October he was received into the Roman Catholic Church by Father, now Blessed, Dominic Barberi. He had at last found ‘the One True Fold of the Redeemer’. Conversions meant ostracism by friends and relatives. Undaunted, Newman set out for Rome to study for the priesthood. While there he became attracted by the idea of the Oratory – a Congregation of priests founded by Saint Philip Neri | Newman, Cardinal John Henry (I523)

| 543 | John was in Harford, England by 1639 and lived in Waterbury for a time before going to Farmington where he was one of the founders of the church in Oct 13, 1652. | Bronson, John (I5993)
