. Not all my help In following my ancestral trails along the Mohawk has come from the original records or the transcriptlons in the alley |
the source. The only other data I had were from the gravestone inscription in the Presbyterian Church cem- etery at Buel. My query, printed in THE ENTERPRISE "AND NEWS of October 6,' 1937, was "answered three days later by a letter from Mr. Ralph N. Flint of Detroit, Mich., in which he stated that the date of the Potter-Flint marriage was taken sev- eral years before by Mrs. Lillian Van Dusen of Fonda, N. Y., from an old Blble in the possession of Mrs. Lu- cius Nestle of Fort Plain; and that most of the data about the family of this second Adam Flint as printed in' THE FLINT FAMILY came from the same Bible. I was doubly sur- prised, for Mrs. Lucious Nestle still living, is my aunt; and the Bible re- ferred to was my own grandmother's, a Bible which had been, ail during my boyhood, in our own house, where my grandmother made her home, and which had in more recent years been mislaid. It Is now a treasured pos- session of a cousin.

Whelen, Billington Family Tree
By Mrs. Hoyt E. Whelan 601 W. Chicago Blvd. Tecumseh, Mich.
"John Whelan of Brandon, Vermont, had children by his wife Rebecca, (she afterwards married John Sea- ton) had children: Peter, James, Margaret, Hannah, John, Ell, and Si- las. Most. of these children "went west:" James died in Brandon, Vt., and his gravestone is marked "Son of John Whelan." He is burled in the corner of the old cemetery within the town of Brandon llmlts and be- side him is the gravestone of Rebecca Seaton, wife of John Seaton and "consort of John Whelan." It is to be supposed that John Whelan Is also buried on the same lot but there is no marker for his grave. It is the corner lot of the cemetery, nearest the four corners of the town Itself, and easily found.
There are no Billingtons or Hor- tons in the Brandon Town Clerk's re- cords, but : several Whelans, Beebes, Pratts and Raymonds
Eli Whelan, son of John and Re- becca Whelan of Brandon, Vt. mar- ried Desire Beebe, and was a soldler of the War of 1812. Our records say she died April 18, 1814, in the town of Murry, Genesee Co., N. Y. They set- tled in Verona township, Oneida Co., N. Y. and some time later removed to Clarkson township, Monroe Co., N. Y. and were among the pioneers of that section of N. Y. Their children were:

Some went farther later. John and Willlam came to-Lenawee Co. in 1835 and brought with them their widowed mother, Desire (Beebe) Whelan who dled there In Franklin township in 1853. John's wife was Freelove Ray- mond who married first Thomas Remmington and had one son, Ozro, before she marrled John Whelan. Erven John Whelan born Feb. 18, 1840, in Franklin Township, Lena- wee Co., Michigan was my husband's father, and son of John and Freelove. Willlam Whelan settled on the farm adjoining John's farm. The sisters Harriet, Pamelia and Irena all set- tled near by and in 1840 Nelson Bil- lington was living among them with his famlly given thus: Neison Billing- ton, 1 male 20 to 30, 1 female 10 to 20, 1 female 50 to 60 (U. S. Census of 1840), who could have been his mother and a wife or young daugb- ter. Our records say he was born in 1804 in N. Y. State. The 1850 Cen- sus given his age as 40, and the 1860 Census gives his age as 49. His daughter, (my. mother-in-law) told me he was 20 years older than her mother, Julia Whelan Blllington who was born April 13, 1824. Julia Whe- lan, wife of Nelson Billington whom he married in 1943, was daughter of Herbert Whelan born at Westmore- land, Oneida county, N. Y. June 11. 1797 and his wife, Sylvia Pratt born in Vermont, April 20, 1799.

Wagner Memorial
(Copy loaned by N. Berton Allter,
Nelliston)
1722 WAGNER MEMORIAL 1881 The Wagner Re-Interment at Fort Plain, October 20, 1881
Johan Peter Wagner, born Janu- ary 3, 1722, the son of Peter Wag- ner, a very early pioneer of the Mo- hawk Valley, after serving for years as a patriot In the Revolutionary struggle, at first under Sir William Johnson, and later under General Herkimer, and after having been engaged in the battle of Oriskany and most of the other prominent bat- tles of the time and region, dled full of years and honors, and was buried at Palatine In a cemetery on the Wagner farm now owned by J. Har- vey Smith. (1) His eldest son, also
1750, and died August 1, 1816, after a somewhat more quiet but hardly less useful life than his father's. He was buried by his side in the ceme- tery at Palatine. (2) Some time ago it became necessary to take part of this old cemetery for a public pur- poss, and Jeptha. A. Simms, the man of all in the Mohawk Valley most in- terested in its historic events, called the matter to the attention of the Oneida Historical Society of Utica and suggested the eminent propriety of reinterring the bodies of father and son in the beautiful cemetery at Fort Plain. (3). The Historical socie- ty cordially took up the matter and determined to show proper honor to these two men, most worthy of them- selves and as founders of one of the greatest families in the Mohawk Valley. The plans arranged for the interesting event were carried thru October 20, 1881 and the day .will not be soon forgotten by the people in the region most interested.
Two special cars were attached at Utica to the 10 a. m. train, to take the members of the Historical socie- ty and the military escort from Uti- ca to Fort Plain, and they were well filled. The soclety was represented by its vice-president, Hon. C. W. Hutchinson, chairman of the execu- tive committee, Jno. F. Seymour, the secretary, S. N. D. North, Dr. I. S. Hartley, Dr. A. G. Brower, Leroy F. Shattuck, Dr. Charles B. Foster, J. V. H. Scovil Dr. Edwin Hutchin- son, Dr. Douglas, Max Lehman and others.
اجمـ
General Dering was represented by
a detalled staff consisting of Ma- jor Sherrill, Major Pomeroy and Captains Eaton and Spriggs. The Utica Citizens' Corps was represent- ed by Major Everts and his staff, Lieutenant Baggs, Lieutenant Mun- son, Chaplain Gardner, Surgeca West, and Lieutenants Storrs, Kin- kald, McQuade, Voggshall and Ste- vens. The Hutchinson Light Guards, Company B, of the Twenty-sixth Bat- tallon, in command of John W. Gos- j sin, acted as military escort and was accompanied by the battallon band. General C. W. Darling, as chairman, of the committee . of arrangements for the Utlca party, was in command for the day and was accompanied by General W. H. Christian, also a mem- ber of the committee. .
On arriving at Fort Plain, the party was met at the depot by Jep- tha R. Simms, William Clark, Rev. Dr. Wortman, Dr. Morgan Snyder, Horace L. Green, Hon. Webster Wag- ner, John B. Haslet and Simeon
Joban Peter, and like his fatber known as colonel, was born Nov 6, ] Tingue, the Fort Plain executive committee and a procession was formed, President Hutchinson march- ing in front with the members of the executive committee, followed by the Historical society and Military. Two hearses bore the bodies of the Revolutionary hero and his son, a guard of honor marching with each ..! Arriving at the Reformed church, the Rev. Dr. Wortman's, all entered, and, with the people of the town was com- fortably filled.
