CARLEY, KEARLEY, KERLEY, ONLEY, WALDRON, MARTIN, THORNTON
.
A gentleman of 81 years is very anxious to prove his eligibility to the SAR. and I would greatly appreciate any help on the following persons: William Canley, sometimes in the re- cords as Kearley or Kerley and other corruptions, born in the 1760s, and his wife, Martha, born ca 1774 in Via. (may have ibeen the western part of . Penna. then claimed by Va.) A, son, Jesse Martin Carley, was born in N. O. in 1791 and we believe his mother may have been Martha Mar- tin and daughter of a Jesse Martin. This family appeared in Smith coun- ty, enn. in 1811. here were other children.
Jesse Martin Carley, above, mar- ried ca 1809 Jeannette (Janet, Gen- net) Thornton who was born in Vir- ginia .. Was her father a William M. hornton ?
John Onley born 1797 in N. C., was an orphan at the age of nine. Who were his parents? He married Eliza- beth Waldron some time between 1814 and 1828. She told her daughter, Leah Riddick Onley, that she was of the North Carolina Waldrons. Tradi- tion has it that she was 10 years older than her husband, John Onley, which would make her birth date about 1787.
A tradition also. is that Jesse Mar- tin Carley (Kerley) came into Ten- nessee by way of Kentcky. He may have married in that state. Am par- ticularly interested in Jesse Martin. Found a Jesse Martin in Fairfax Co., Va. in the late 1750s; at Red- stone Creek, now Pa., in 1780 and a Jesse Martin in Montgomery Co., enn. with a William Corley (Carley) in 1806. What is the connection ?

MORSE
Want information on Steven Morse who married (Int.) 14 Jan. 1805, in Chester, Mass., Mabel 'Riley, daugh- ter of Julius Riley and Mabel Ad- kins. They were the parents of Mar- ietta Morse- bom 3 Dec. 1807, and Justus Morse, born 27 March 1809. Both children were bapt. in Chester, Mass. 30 July 1809. Mabel Riley Morse went to' Portage Co., Ohio with her parents about 1810. There she married 2nd Jonathan Barber Bissel, 1812., I believe Steven Morse may be related, to some of the early New York Monse families.
HANMER
Want information on the families
REIBSON, LADD, HURD
In the January 22 issue appeared a request for information - on the parents of this Rev. soldier as. well.
Reibsom (Ripson), Ladd and Hurd families to which no answer was received, and I am again writing in the hope that you may know of some source of information or have in your files records of these families.
My paternal grandmother Harriet Caroline Ripsom was born in Madi- son county, N. Y. Dec. 3, 1825, near Georgetown or Cazenovia. She was a daughter of Henry Ripsom born Aug. 20, 1796, married in 1824 Caroline Hurd, (born, July 20, 1807.
Henry Ripsom was a son of Henry Ripsom and Deborah Larr, married 1795.
I believe Henry Ripsom who mar- ried Deborah Ladd 1795, to be a grandson of Mathias Reibsom (Rip- [som) of . the list Tryon Co. Regt., who was killed at Oriskany August 6, 1777 and I am interested in ob- taining a list of children of Mathias Reibsom and if possible descendants to the third generation.
Also I should like to know if there as a record of burial of Bethel Hurd, a soldier of the American Revolution, in the cemetery at Georgetown, died 1817 and jof his wife Mary Hurd who died 1813.
Also I should like to determine the ancestry of Deborah Ladd who mar- ried 1795 Henry Ripsom, probably in Madison, county. The Ropsom fam- ily Bible includes this entry of mar- riage but the place is not mentioned.

The Battle of The Beukendaal
By DONALD A, KEEFER Glenville, N. Y.
The Indians immediately saw the approaching man and probably the draw them into an ambush. Captain game was staged to draw them into an ambush. Captain Toll was shot dead and Van .Vorst, wounded, was taken prisoner. The slave Rykert es- caped the hail of bullets and ran for
the Maalwyckc. Many years later Nicholas G. Veeder, Schenectady's last survivor of the Revolutionary War, who died April 7, 1862, at the age of one hundred years and three months, related how he saw Toll's name cut in the bark of a tree which stood near where he fell.
Knowing that the escape of the (Continued from last week) slave would surely result in the ap- pearance of armed men from the- Maalwyck farm or Schenectady, the Van Vorst, Toll and the slave Ry- kert searching for the missing horses came near the DeGraff house at Beu- kenhaal where they heand what they thought was the sound of horses stamping the ground. The sound came from a part of the ravine where savages proceeded to lay a trap in the ravine. They took the body of Toll and set it against a tree as though alive, and with a short string they tied a captive crow they had to his wrist. Taking Van Vorst there was a clear spot of bare and with them they concealed themselves salty clay ground known to the |along the sides of the ravine. They had not waited long before Lieuten- They made their way to the spot expecting to find their lost horses only to see instead a group of paint- ed Indians engrossed in a game of "quoits," as Van Vorst afterwards described it. One writer states this was probably "chunkey," an out door game favorite among many Indian nation's. ant Darling and a part of his Con- necticut men entered the southern end of the Beukendaal and marched without suspicion or caution directly into the deadly ambush. Lieutenant Darling had left a part of his de- tachment at the unoccupied house of Simon Groot along the way, and at this place a small number of men from the Maalwyck joined his force. As they drew near Toll leaning against the tree, apparently still alive and waving for help, the con- cealed Indians about the ravine op- ened fire killing instantly eight or ten whites.

A gentleman of 81 years is very anxious to prove his eligibility to the SAR and I would greatly appreciate any help on the following persons: William' Carley, sometimes in the re- cords as Kearley or Kerley and oth- er corruptions, born in the 1760s and his wife Martha born ca 1774 in Va. (may have ibeen in western part of Penna. then claimed by Va.) A son Jesse Martin Carley was born in N. C. in 1791 and we believe his mother may have been Martha Martin and daughter of a Jesse Martin. This family appeared in Smith county, Tenn. in 1811. There were other children.
