List of Officers In Lincoln Militia of 1794


(From the St. Catherine's Standard, Ontario, Canada, April 15, 1944, sent by Wm. A. Hutt, 17 Front street, Thorald, Ontarlo.)


This is one of a series of articles on the history of the 2nd (Res.) Btn. of the Lincoln and Welland Regiment prepared by Major the Rev. A. H. Walker, E. D., chaplain and historian of the battalion.


In a newspaper published in Ni- agara in 1794 there appears a list of officers of four of the five newly formed regiments of the Lincoln MI- litia. It is interesting to notice how many names listed there we still find in this district, no doubt, the de- scendants of these militiamen, and in many cases. occupy the old home- steads and proudly display the origi- nal crown deeds given to their ances- tors.


1


The old newspaper referred to was called The Upper Canada Gazette or the American Oracle. Rather strange title for a Canadian weekly. The pa- · per was evidently a weekly one and this edition was number 45, Volume 1 dated Thursday, the 31st day of July, 1794 and gives a list of the of- ficers commissioned to these regl- ments. The Commissions were sign- ed by the Lieutenant of the County of. Lincoln. The title "Lieutenant of the County" calls for a word of ex- planation. It was the. intention of General Simcoe as Lieutenant Gov- ernor .of the Province to create an aristocracy in Upper Canada. The appointment of Lieutenants of Coun- ties was a step in this direclon. Col- onel John Buler of Butler's Rangers was appointed Lieutenant of Lincoln county, this appointment served two purposes, first Butler had demon- strated his powers of leadership and administration as Commander of his regiment; secondly, he was worthy of reward, a reward other than' the tangible and material. reward of a land grant-reward of dignity. What greater dignity could he bestow than the rank of Lieutenant of the Coun- ty. It was the greatest gift in his power. The oldest Commission on which we have been able to lay our hands is that given to Danlel Servoss in which he is appointed Captain of a company in the first Lincoln Mili- tia and signed by John Butler. It might interest the descendants of those men who are living in the Counties of Lincoln and Welland to


read the list. We know alas! in cur search for data among some of these families that many are ignorant of the connection of their grandsires in the development and history of the Niagara Peninsula. If the publica- tion of this list would arouse an in- terest in these descendants to the ex- tent of rummaging in their attics and old trunks for data of this period, we : shall be amply regarded. These fami- ly records often provide side-windows which helps us to get a fuller view of those days.


The following is a list for the four regiments:


Lieutenant-Colonels-Peter Ten Broeck, John Powell, Peter ' Hare, ! Andrew Bradt.


Majors-Benjamin Pawling, John Turney, Peter Ball, Thomas Butler.


Captains, Ralfe Clench, Joseph Clement, Wm. Johnston, Daniel Ser- voss, Colin M'Nabb, John Clement, Robert Nellis, Jacob Servoss, Caleb Reynolds, Solomon 'Seacord, Andrew" Butler, Jesse Pawling, W.

CHURCH


While looking through Enterprise and News files in our Syracuse Ll- brary, I came across a couple of Church family inquirles sent in by Clarissa Church Dillon of Minneapo- lis, Minnesota, in September, 1932. This encouraged me to submit a a query concerning our Church line which seems to vanish into thin air. We know very little. There were half brothers somewhere in the line. Our first known man is Caleb Church who marrled Irena or Rachael Pow- ell. The Powells came from the Hol- land Patent area. Caleb and his wife had a least four sons:


Josiah born ? Luther born 1819.


Lewis Powell born 1825.


Silas born 1829.


Caleb and his wife Josiah disap- .pear from our records. Luther and Silas moved from this part of the country to Chicago. After a few years, Silas moved back and settled in Central Square, New York. Lewis,


a pattern maker, stayed in Syracuse, Luther, a pattern maker also, re- mained in Chicago. .


Luther Church married Annie L. ? They had several children, only two of whom are known to us:


Nelson who graduated from Ruslı Medical School.


Emily who married ? ? Tank and lived in Chicago.


Silas Church married Angeline Os- trander of Dewitt, New York. They' had five children:


Emma born June 6, 1864, married Frank Morgan.


Charles, Chicago.


Irene married Joe Ross, had three children.


Albert, born and died young in Chicago.


Harriette, married Bert Newing. Lewis Powell Church (1825) mar- ried Huldah Ann Adams (1827), of Dewitt. They had six children as fol- lows:


Louise Arlene born April 14, 1849, married Oscar R. Stone. Had one daughter, married John D. Whitney. Had second daughter .


Augustus Byron born May 18, 1851, died Dec. 24, 1852.


Lewis Nelson born Feb. 26, 1854, died June 29, 1879, married Nellie Barker Dec. 24, 1878.


Edmond Powell born June 30, 1856, died Oct. 6, 1859.


Nettie Fremont born Aug. 2, 1862, died March 7, 1943, married Fred K. H. Fox June 22, 1887.


Freddie Leon born Oct. 4, 1866, died . March 14, 1868.


According to family recollection, Caleb may have lived in Holland Pat- ent, Oneida county, New York or Ot- selic, Chenango county, county, New York, or in Madison county, New York, or in all .three.


We have exerted ourselves strenu- ously in vain to learn more about Caleb. It would be wonderful if some one could supply a missing link.

Millage and Allied Dutch Families


By Mrs. Marie Millage Abbott, 730 N. Grove Street, Oak Park, III. OUDERKERK, OUDERKIRK


Copied from mother's Bible. She often said these dates were written by Uncle Peter or Uncle Cornelius but the fact that the death records reads "Frances, my wife," seems to indicate that at least that part of


the record was written by her grand- father, Isaac.


The writing seems to be the same throughout but the ink is badly faded and the old style writing is often difficult to read. I have used the best glass 1 can find to make certain of the dates.


Baptismal certificate spells name Fransyntie, daughter of Peter Van Olinda and Eva Spoor. Date March 7, 1784, Schenectady, N. Y.


The spelling 'of Frances' family name is uncertain. At first glance it seems like "Panolinda." It could just as easily be "H" or "K" and end in "inua" or "imea." The strokes for none of us can tell which it may be. all the combinations are here.


Isaac Ouderkirk was born Oct. 6 In the year of our Lord, 1783.


Frances was born Feb. 18th, in the year of our Lord, 1784.


The above Isaac nd Frances was married January 13th, by the Rev. Henry W. Wycoff, in the year of our Lord 1808.


First Son. Isaac I. Ouderkirk, was born April 11, in the year of our Lord, 1809.


The first daughter, Eveline, was born February 15, in the year of our Lord, 1811.


The second son, Andrew, was born March 17, in the year of our Lord, 1813.


The second daughter, Cornelia, was born August 28, in the year of our Lord, 1815. -


The third son, David Henry, was born August 1st (or 31st) in the year of our Lord, 1817.


The fourth son, Peter, was born September 27, in the year' of our Lord, 1819.


The fifth son, Corn's (exact spell- ing, which doubtless means "Cornel- ius, since mother often spoke of Un- cle Cornelius") was born February 23, In the year of our Lord, 1822.


The sixth son, Abraham, was born August 1st, in the year of our Lord, 1824.


Deaths in the Family


Sixth son, Abraham, departed this life September 8, in the year 1825, aged one year, one month and eight days.


(Note-Frances my wife written in the hand of Isaac born 1783 .- M. M. Abbott.)


Frances, my wife, departed this life January 8, 1825, aged 41 years, ten months and twenty days.


Cornelia Ouderkirk departed this life February 9th ( ?) 1826, aged ten years, six months, days. (You will notice the month of Cornelia's birth is In doubt. The number of days in the death record is not plain. It may be ten or six days. But the date of the month and the year in each case, birth and death, are plain.

CRANE


In your issue of 22 June, Mrs. Em- ma McKenney, 1318 E. Boston street, Seattle 2, Wash., asks about the Crane family, stating she had access to my pre-Revolutionary War Bellin- ger series. She asks about No. 743, and my other memo inclosed (Mrs. George H. Harnden of 121 Swan St., Scotia, N. Y.) asks about No. 744 from whom she is descended.


Mrs. McKenney, by reading my Bellinger series, No. 743 and 2279 will find the descendants of Judge Charles B. Bellinger of Oregon, "Qne of them Mrs. Frances (Bellinger) (N.) Matthews lives in or near Port- land, Ore. Her present address will be found in the telephone directory of Portland, Ore. and vicinity and this phone book may be found in the office of the Seattle Phone Co. Mrs. Matthews may have data on the Cranes, since the descent is from Polly Crane and her father Josiah.


Mrs. Harnden (address above) is not descended from Josiah Crane but may have some data. Mrs. McKen- ney should have a complete copy of the records extended, of 741, 743, 744 and 745, ali somewhat closely re- lated.
