MY FAMILY

by John Francis Duckworth

Updated 12 Aug 2012 FOREWORD

Ancestors have been of interest to me since childhood, and serious collection and study began in 1952-53. First, my father and mother lived with Francis Marion Duckworth, who had no children. He passed on early history of the family in North Carolina and Georgia to my parents, who passed it on to me. The most important item was John Williamson Duckworth, father of Francis Marion Duckworth. John Williamson Duckworth had a first cousin, James Duckworth, who was a Baptist preacher near Brevard, North Carolina. From that point on it has been search and study, compare and change data in the areas of Transylvania, Burke, and Mecklenburg Counties, North Carolina. All by the name Duckworth in these counties were recorded in census, church, newspaper, and war records, as well as the individual stories of their descendants.

Correspondence with Ms. Roberta Wakefield, past president of the National Genealogical Society, and with the late W.B. Duckworth, Attorney, 2126 East 24, Tulsa, Oklahoma (3-16-57), the first serious researchers of the family that I know of, encouraged me with my study. Then in the 1960s I was contacted by Malcolm Gardner, descendant of Williams Duckworth of Anson County, North Carolina, Pendleton District, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Arkansas. Mr. Malcolm Gardner was with the U.S. Park Service and had majored in history in college. In my opinion, Mr. Gardner was a first class researcher and the first thorough researcher of the records of the Duckworth family. He was careful not to make any statements not backed up with official records. He did much research of the family in Burlington County, New Jersey, Frederick County, Virginia, Cumberland County, North Carolina, and Pendleton District, South Carolina. The correspondence with Ms. Wakefield and W.B. Duckworth and copies of much of the research of Malcolm Gardner are included in "The Duckworth Collection."

In 1990, I submitted several pounds of correspondence, research notes, family briefs, outlines, etc. to the Mormon Family Library, Salt Lake City, Utah, for microfilming. It is known as "The Duckworth Collection." Copies of the collection may be obtained through interlibrary loan at any Mormon Church library. Also, copies of "The Duckworth Collection" have been placed in the Burke County Library, Morganton, North Carolina, The Brevard Library, Brevard, North Carolina, The East Tennessee Historical Society Library, Knoxville, Tennessee, and The Young Harris College Library, Young Harris, Georgia.

No effort to publish any history of the family is planned. A brief outline of the family was given to the families of my father's brothers and sisters. This paper will not be published but will be distributed to relatives and other interested people on computer diskettes. One

can take the diskette and add his or her branch of the family.

In closing, let me say this has been an interesting study and undertaking. Over the years I have met some very interesting people, but the greatest enjoyment was being able to pass on to others those items which have been obtained by careful research.

Chapter 1

EARLY DUCKWORTHS IN AMERICA One of the earliest records of a Duckworth in America was John Duckworth. Under a four-year indenture, John Duckworth was one of 23 persons "imported into this province .... Registered in the secretary's books of Records," 1 December 1684, upon the account of Wm Dockwra" (Archives of ... New Jersey, first series, v.21, p. 61). William Dockwra (Dockray, Docwrae) was a London merchant and one of the proprietors of East Jersey.

The personal estate of William Duckworth, yeoman, of New Hanover Township, Burlington County, New Jersey, was appraised at L88 - 9 - 6, 7 March 1727/8, by Asher Clayton, John Wright, and Jonathan Fowler. On 15 March 1727/28 William Cook gave bond as administrator of the estate. His accounting of 22 March 1730/1 included charges for "sundrys furnished to the widow in her last sickness," two coffins and digging two graves (Archives of ... New Jersey, first series, v., 23, p. 144). In the May term 1728 the County Court confirmed William Bowgar and William Dean, who were appointed by Grace Duckworth, widow, during her last illness, as guardians for Joseph, Anna, and Mary Duckworth (Burlington Co., N.J., Minutes of Common Pleas, 1717-1733, p. 330). These three seem under 14; usually orphans under age, but 14 or over, chose their own guardians.

Archives, v. 22:(1) William Duckworth & Hannah Clevenger (both of Burlington) 21 Aug 1731(2) William Duckworth & Mary Wright (both of Burlington) 6 Dec 1731 (3) John Duckworth & Sarah Hankins (both of Burlington) 20 March 1734/5(4) Joseph Duckworth & Esther Ong (both of Burlington) 1 June 1737 (5) George & Jamima Williamson (both of N.J.) 26 June 1739 (6) Samuel Rose & Anna Duckworth (both of Burlington) 26 Feb. 1739/40 (7) Hugh Hartly & Mary Duckworth (both of Burlington) 29 Dec. 1740

William Duckworth b. 1709 in Burlington County, New Jersey d. 30 January 1761 in Chester County, Pennsylvania, m. 1 Mary Wright in Burlington, New Jersey and they were the parents of: Uriah b. January 1734/35; Sarah b. 1739; Grace b. 1741; Aaron b. 28 January 1741/42; and Rody b. 1743. All born in Burlington, New Jersey.

William Duckworth left his wife Mary and children in New Jersey when he went to Virginia and presumably was a resident of Frederick County by October 1750 when a

235 acre grant was surveyed for him in Lord Fairfax's Northern Neck proprietary. In March 1753, the Frederick County Court named William Duckworth road overseer, a position he held at the time of his death in 1761, and he also served as constable and juror. William Duckworth of Frederick County, Virginia died between 10 and 30 January 1761, while on a trip to Chester County, Pennsylvania. His will left his Virginia property to wife Easlie (Alice, Elsie) and his New Jersey property "in Trent Town: to "my five children....Uriah, Aaron, Sarah, Grace, and Rodey Duckworth" (Duckworth Notes in Virginia by Malcolm Gardner in "The Duckworth Collection").

JOHN DUCKWORTH, FREDERICK COUNTY, VIRGINIA

Although Frederick County was authorized in 1738 to be cut off from Orange, the new county court was not functioning before 1742. In the first 25 years of Frederick County operations, there appear in its records as adult residents at least two, possibly three John Duckworths, a Joseph Duckworth, and two William Duckworths.

On 31 August 1744, the Frederick County Court ordered that John Duckworth and 18 others "& the male Labouring Tithables belonging to them work on the Road where the said [Robert] McKay is now Overseer & Observe his Direction & Orders in Clearing the said Road as the Law Directs."

In an action in debt, 8 March 1744/45, Daniel Stillwell vs. John Duckworth, the defendant Duckworth "Confest Judgement to the Plt. for Eight pounds Ten shillings Pensilvania Money of the Value of Six pounds Seven shillings & Six pence Currt. Money of Virga." On John Duckworth's complaint in 1748 the Sheriff attached a cow, furniture, and other personal property of Mathias Ardis; the Court ordered the property sold and Duckworth to have his account of L 1 - 12 - 9 and costs (Frederick Co., Va., Order Books 1, pp. 170, 285; 2, p. 463).

In February Court 1748/49, John Duckworth was appointed "Overseer of the Road from the County Road to the Chapple at McCoys Spring," and in the following month the road from "Cedar Creek to Robert McCoys Run" seems added to his district. In February, a John Duckworth was "appointed Constable for the ensuing year." In June 1755, a John Duckworth was named as overseer of the road "from Captain Jacob Funks to his house,” apparently indicating him as a landholder, but the compiler has seen no record of his owning real property (Ibid., Order Books 3, pp. 18,46; 4, p. 377, 6, p. 311). John Duckworth seems to have spent little time in court, mostly an occasional action in debt (Ibid., Order Books 3, p. 219; 4, p. 165; 5, p. 312). In June 1759, John Hite's action "In Debt" against John Duckworth came before the Court; "The Dft being dead the Suit is Ordered to Abate (ibid., Order Book 8, p.276). The compiler is uncertain if this last is an example of a very slow docket or if it refers to a John Duckworth other than the one who died intestate before 5 April 1757, leaving a widow Sarah who administered his estate (ibid., Order Books 7, p. 221; 9, p. 276). On 4 March 1761, John Larich, Jr. was named road overseer "from McHays Chapple to the widow Duckworths," indicating that a John

Duckworth's widow was then still living (ibid., Order Book 9, p. 267).

On 4 April 1753, "Given under my hand and seal of the proprietors office," G.W. Fairfax authorized Robert Rutherford to make a survey: "Whereas John Duckworth of Frederick County hath informed that there are about Four Hundred Acres of Waste, and ungranted L, in the Said County adjoining the No Side of Casper Mires Late Survey on Drie Run - And desiring a Warrant to survey the same in order to obtain a Deed, ... provided this be the first Warrant that hath been issued for the same...." Rutherford’s survey plat, with description, is dated 18 April 1753: "Pursuant to a warrant from the Proprietors office granted to John Duckworth I have surveyed for the said Duckworth" 480 acres in said County "on the westerly side of Shannandoah, on a branch of Crooked Run, ... [joining] Land Surveyed for Samuel Morse ...for Capt John Hite ... for Casper Mire." Chainmen were "Saml Morse & Edward Cartmel." No further action seems to have been taken on final title until after the Revolution. Then similar notations are added to the outside fold of each of the old 1752 survey warrant and plat: "John Duckworth ...480 acres ... 29 Sep. 1789," (Northern Neck Surveys, Frederick Co., Va., Box D-E, John Duckworth) Malcolm Gardner notes.

Chapter 2

JOHN and SARAH HANKINS DUCKWORTH

John Duckworth was a farmer in Frederick County, Virginia and died there in 1755-57. His widow, Sarah Hankins Duckworth, and children removed to Mecklenburg County, North Carolina shortly before 1768. It is believed that she was the Sarah Duckworth who married John Hern in Lincoln County, North Carolina, 9 October 1769. Sarah Duckworth, 1702-1804, died in Lincoln County, North Carolina and is buried in Olney Presbyterian Cemetery, Gastonia, North Carolina. Beside her is buried Rebecca Duckworth Mendenhall, 1748 23 March 1836, wife of Nathan Mendenhall.

John and Sarah Duckworth's children were: Sally, William, John, Simon, and Rebecca.

Duckworth family tradition is that John Duckworth (1759-1843) was related to John Neill (b. ca. 1740) and came to what is now Burke County when he was 12 or 13 years old with John Neill. John Neill had four children as follows: William, John who left Burke County and no record, James, and Frankie who married Robert Scott. William Neill (1771-1884), son of John, married Elizabeth Mackey (1773-1856) and had the following children: Nancy, John, Thomas, William, James, and George Duckworth. James Neill (1775-1857), son of John, married in 1813 Margaret Morrison (1782-1848), daughter of Thomas and Sarah Duckworth Morrison, and had the following children:

James Jasper, Thomas Newton (1854-1939) married Christine Pearson, Sarah Eleanor, Margaret Elizabeth, Mary Jo married ------ Tate, and Zemma married ----Espey.

Thomas Newton and Christine Pearson Neill had the following children: Thomas Robinson, Lena, Patton Young, Gertrude, Esau, Margaret, and Beth. Note: John Neill, son of Capt. John and Sallie Duckworth Neill, removed to McMinn County, Tennessee and on to Stone County, Missouri.

William Duckworth married Jane and will be discussed in the next chapter.

John Duckworth was married several times but the names of his wives have been lost. However, the first wife may have been Violet last name unknown. He had a large family. Absalome married 1. Martha Peele 2. Kiza Williams. He withdrew to Posey County, Indiana and later to Kentucky. George married Kathy Unknown and withdrew to Bath County, Kentucky. John J. married Mary Hill and withdrew to Indiana. Able Hankins married Mary Caruthers and withdrew to Lincoln County, North Carolina, to that part of Buncombe County that became Henderson County, North Carolina, and to Lincoln County, Tennessee. Alexander married Nina Silvey who withdrew to Rutherford County, North Carolina, where he died, and his widow and children withdrew to that part of Union County, Georgia that became Fannin County. From Fannin County the son, Robert, withdrew to Benton County Arkansas, where he died, and his widow, Lucinda Hall, removed to Coryell County Texas. William Smith Duckworth, son of John of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, was probably the father of John, Hezekiah, and William of Rhea and Meigs Counties, Tennessee. Ezekiel married Malinda Shelton and removed to Pickens County, Alabama. There were other children whose names have been lost.

John Duckworth was fined for non-attendance at Court, Oct. 1774, and in June 1775 is named as security for Joseph Maxwell's license for an ordinary (Mecklenburg County, North Carolina Minute Book 1, 1774-1780, pp. 9, 19). He was appointed Constable in July 1775, place of John Barry in the district of Richard Barry, Esq., and was still Constable in April 1778 (Ibid., pp. 54, 58, 149). July 1781 Constable in Samuel Blythes' District.

Duckworth, John. Mecklenburg County. He is blind, poor, between 80 and 90; his children have all moved to the Western Country except one daughter "whose circumstance is too humble to render him any relief."

Chapter 3

WILLIAM and JANE UNKNOWN DUCKWORTH

Fragments of information indicate that William Duckworth was the eldest son of John and Sarah Hankins Duckworth of Burlington County, New Jersey and Frederick County, Virginia, where John died in 1757. William was probably born in the late 1730s. William Duckworth moved to McDowell's Creek, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina in the late 1760s, probably in company with his brothers John and Simon. John bought 110 acres on the head branches of McDowell's Creek from Henry McCulloch in 1767 (Mecklenburg County Deed Book 15, p. 83). No record of this William Duckworth buying or being granted land has been found.

In late 1770 or early 1771, William Duckworth died. His widow Jane and Joseph Moore were appointed administrators, and the final report of the estate was made to the January 1772 term of Court. The total amount of the sale was L 80 - 6 - 8 plus L 3 (an account collected) making a total of L 83 - 6 - 8. The estate owed L 25 - 16 leaving in the hands of the administrators L 57 - 10 - 8. A note on the back page states the Widow bought L 55 - 9 - 1. The estate owed John McDowell L 8, the largest single amount of debt, which may have been for rent. William was a farmer, as shown by the inventory of the sale, which included 21 head of black cattle, 4 head of horse creatures, 22 head of hogs, and 12 head of sheep. (John McDowell owned some seven or eight hundred acres of land on McDowell's Creek). No further mention of the widow Jane has been found, and the names of all the children are not known. Land records in Burke and Mecklenburg Counties North Carolina indicate that the eldest son was John, and his pension application papers state that he was born 1759 in Virginia. Other sons were William, Jonathan, and George, who all moved to Burke County. The names of the daughters were Althea and Sallie.

LAND GRANT- To "John Duckwith (Heir at Law to William Duckwith) 200 acres. On the waters of McDowell's Creek joining McCulloh's & McGee's Land...30th January

1773 (File 1898) "for John Duckwith as heir at Law to William Duckwith Dec'd...Joseph Hobbs Jr. & Simon Duckworth, (chain bearers). John Duckworth of Burke County, North Carolina sold this 200 acres to John McKnitt Alexander 7th September 1795 (Mecklenburg County Deed Book 15, p. 161)

The children of William and Jane (Unknown) Duckworth were:

1. John Duckworth, Revolutionary Soldier, Burke County, North Carolina according to family tradition (letter 28 September 1955 from Miss Gertrude Neill, Morganton, North Carolina, a descendant of both John Duckworth and John Neill, in "The Duckworth Collection”): John Duckworth's father, I think his name was William, and John Neill came together from Virginia to North Carolina in the mid 1760s and were in all probability brothers-in-law, as her aunt said the sons of John Neill were first cousins of John Duckworth. He was born 1759 in Virginia and died November 6, 1843, in Burke County, North Carolina. He married Mary Robinson, and they were the parents of Mary married Abraham Keller, Althea married Simon Dorsey, Sarah married Thomas Morrison, William G. married (1) Catherine Keller (2) Rachel Hibbs, John R. married Sarah (Mary?) Sellers, Jonathan married Lucinda Fox, Alexander married Nancy Van Horn, and Thomas N. married (1) Jane F. Unknown (2) Mary Simmons. John Duckworth was wounded in the Battle at Ramseur’s Mill and was at the Battle of King's Mountain.

2. Althea Duckworth. It is thought she married Sam Sherrill, Jr. and died in Blount County, Alabama.

3. William Duckworth was born 1765 and died 1848 in Burke County, North Carolina. The name of his wife has been lost. William lived on Hunting Creek, neighbor to Daniel England. He was a miller and served as a Burke County Commissioner. His children were: Jonathan married Martha "Patsy" Kincaid, Althea married David Porter, Jane married Martin Kibler, Sarah married Jesse P. Summers, Collins married Margaret Bell, Samuel married Mary Erwin, and David married (1) Sally Sides (2) Elizabeth Powell.

4. Sarah "Sallie" Duckworth was born 1765 in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina and died 7 February 1840 in Buncombe County, North Carolina. She is buried at Big Sandy Methodist Cemetery, Buncombe County, North Carolina. She married William Robeson and they were the parents of: John married Anna Palmer, Alexander married Mary Palmer, Mary married Thomas Foster, George D. married Elizabeth Palmer, Violet married Nathan Jones, Rebecca married David Mullins, Jane married Francis S. Gillespie, Elizabeth "Betsy" married David Duckett, and Isabella married William Peoples.

5. Jonathan and Kizziah England Duckworth will be discussed in the next chapter.

6. George Duckworth was born about 1771. He served in the War of 1812 and resided in Burke County, North Carolina. The names of his wife and one daughter have been lost. His daughter Agnes married Solomon Good in Burke County, North Carolina. He withdrew from Burke County to McMinn County Tennessee, where he died. His other

children were: John born 1796 and died 1841 in McMinn County, Tennessee. His wife was Ann Unknown, and she and family withdrew to Missouri. Thomas married Martha Sue Neill and withdrew to Stone County, Missouri. L.J. married Nancy Bracket. Hoppy married William A. Triplet.

Chapter 4

JONATHAN and KIZZIAH ENGLAND DUCKWORTH

Jonathan Duckworth was born about 1767 and died November 1807 in Burke County, North Carolina. Kizziah England was born about 1775 and died 16 January 1820 in Buncombe (part that is now Transylvania) County, North Carolina. She was the daughter of John and Jane Ann Grant England.

Kizziah Duckworth, the widow of Jonathan Duckworth, who died 10 November 1807 in Burke County, North Carolina of a disease that reached epidemic proportions, came to the Brevard, North Carolina area sometime before 1810 with seven children: four boys and three girls, "The Brevard Seven Duckworths.” She was born ca. 1775 in North Carolina, place unknown, daughter of John England and married ca. 1795 in Burke County, North Carolina. Her husband, Jonathan, was the son of William and Jane Duckworth of McDowell's Creek in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina and brother to John, William and George of Burke County and sisters Althea and Sarah. He was appointed by the October 1787 Term of the Burke Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions to serve on the road jury to lay off a road from Burke County and Morganton to Widow Hagan's. He was on the 1793 Tax List of Burke County, one poll, no land, and neighbor to William Duckworth, John and Daniel England (Hunting Creek). When Jonathan Duckworth died, he was living on the north side of the Catawba River and neighbor to Silas Murphy, John Bryant, and Mrs. Mary Bradley, all dying of the same disease in the course of four days. There is no record of Jonathan or Kizziah owning land in Burke or Buncombe County North Carolina. At the time of the 1810 U.S. Census of Buncombe County, Kizziah was living near Ben Davidson, William Wilson Sr., Mary Shurk, Samuel King Jr., and George Osborn. It is believed Jonathan was living with his brother, William, in 1790, in Burke County, North Carolina. The first organization of Baptist, in what is now Transylvania County, North Carolina, was an arm of the French Broad Baptist Church, started 17 April 1813 and organized 22 July 1822, as Cathey's Creek Baptist Church. Kizziah Duckworth joined the mission prior to the permanent organization. She died 16 January 1820 and was the first recorded death of the membership and the first buried in the cemetery.

She was the first Baptist of record in the Duckworth family, and her influence must have been great, as all four of her sons were active in the church, and she had two grandsons

who became Baptist preachers of some note. Jonathan and Kizziah Duckworth were the parents of "The Brevard Seven Duckworths":

1. John McCamie was born 7 June 1797, died 2 March 1887, married Sarah Hamlin, daughter of Elikiam and Ann Reagan Hamlin, and lived at Cathey's Creek.

2. Jane was born ca. 1799, died about 1869, and married William Harrison Nicholson, son of John Nicholson. They lived at Cherryfield and Dunn’s Rock.

3. David was born in 1801, died in February 1891, married Mary Williamson, daughter of Charles Williamson, and moved from the North Fork of the French Broad River to Union County, Georgia between 1834 and 1836. He will be discussed in next chapter.

4. Jonathan, twin to David, died ca. 1870, married Rebecca Hunter, and moved from Cherryfield to Union County, Georgia after 1843.

5. William was born 26 April 1805, died 2 July 1884, married Sarah A. Jordan, daughter of Joseph and Hannah Davis Jordan. Lived and died at Cherryfield.

6. Elizabeth was born 5 August 1807, died 1 February 1854, and married John Hamlin, son of Elikiam and Ann Reagan Hamlin. They lived at Cherryfield and Brevard.

7. Charlotte, whose dates of birth and death have been lost, may have been twin to Elizabeth. She married Thomas Aiken, son of Ezekiel and Sarah McCravey Aiken. They lived at Cherryfield. The Duckworth family were members of the Presbyterian Church before the marriage of Jonathan to Kizziah England.

Why did Kizziah remove from Burke to Buncombe County after the death of Jonathan? She had no relatives living in Buncombe County. It must have been to keep her family together. Had she remained in Burke County, the County Court would have put her children out for adoption. The part of Buncombe County to which she moved was a wild and recently settled area. The possibility of family interference here was small and they felt safe here.

David Duckworth was born in 1801 in Burke County, North Carolina and died in 1891 in Union County, Georgia. Mary Williamson was born 1805 in Buncombe County, North Carolina and died in l885 in Union County, Georgia. They married in 1820 in Buncombe

County, North Carolina and removed to Union County, Georgia about 1833. They joined The Baptist Church of Christ at Choestoe 10 September 1836. David was elected Deacon 11 September 1841. He was elected or appointed to represent the Church at Association and Union Church meetings many times.

David came to Union County, Georgia hunting pasture land on which to raise horses. His horse bell is in the possession of his descendants. On an early visit to the area, he observed the luxuriant growth of grass in the Jack's Gap area and stated, “This is the place I am looking for.” The Indians kept the undergrowth burned off and the grass grew abundantly. David bought two land lots, 120 acres, in Choestoe, joining the Arkaquah District line. A part of this land remained in the Duckworth Family until just before the death of Clyde Duckworth, son of Archibald, but in later years William Henry Duckworth, Jr. bought a tract of the land and reconstructed a log house near the homesite of General Jackson Duckworth's old home.

One time during court week in Blairsville, David had a young horse he was trying to sell. The horse was fat and slick. David stated that he fed him one ear of corn at a feed and he wanted $50.00 for the colt. Someone offered him $50.00 for the animal if he would shoe it. This David refused to do and he got $50.00 for the horse. The new owner asked if one ear of corn was all he fed the horse at a feed, to which David replied, "But I feed him four times a day.”

John Souther cut a road across David Duckworth's field without permission and they had a fight. On 13 November 1847, the church in conference took up the case of Brother John Souther and excluded him for same. The church took up the case against Brother David Duckworth and acquitted him. On October 13, 1849, the church took up the report of the committee in regard to the difficulty existing between Brethren Duckworth and John Souther, Joseph Souther, and his wife, which the acknowledgement by each one and the Church recorded the acknowledgement and they were all returned to their former status. They also agreed that the report of the committee be entered on the minutes of the Church Book.

David and Mary Duckworth had twelve children to reach maturity, the first five being born in North Carolina. Their children were as follows:

General Jackson Duckworth was a farmer and a blacksmith. His farm was a part of the original David Duckworth land and lay joining the Arkaquah-Choestoe District line. He made or built two farm wagons each year. He had "funny" ideas about many subjects and was "set in his way." He was in the Home Guard in the Civil War. He ran the first Agricultural Agent off his farm and told him not to come back. At time of an election, Francis Marion and Frank C. Duckworth would let the word out that they were voting for the man opposite their candidate to keep General J. from voting for the opposition. General J. did not want anyone to think that Francis M. and Frank C. were "handling" him. General J. did not believe in education and said if a child was going to be a criminal that he would be a bigger criminal if he had an education and it was best for him not to know anything.

Chapter 8

JOHN FRANCIS "JACK" and LAURA JANE NOBLET DUCKWORTH

John Francis "Jack" Duckworth had little or no education and could write his name only a short time before his death. He was strong in his belief of going to school. He made the remark, "If I had the education of Tom Jackson, I would turn Union County upside down." He urged his children to go to school and supported all educational programs.

John Francis Duckworth was a farmer, mail carrier, and horse trader. The latter was his

life and joy, and it is said that he had planned to move to Gainesville and open a livery stable. He told his boys to always tell the truth in a horse trade and never tell anything that could be seen in the animal unless asked. Then tell the truth. He may want to trade again in the future.

Two short stories of his horse trading follow. John Duckworth always kept a cow. His cow went dry and there was no milk for the children. While on his mail route, he observed a fresh cow at the Cook farm and traded cows in a short time. The cow he traded was a young cow and calved a short time after the trade. The cow he traded far was an old cow. Mr. Cook laughed about beating "Jack" Duckworth in a cow trade. He may be a good horse trader, but he sure can't trade cows. Shortly after this, "Jack" was carrying the mail and riding a three-year-old filly. He stopped at the Cook residence and told Mrs. Cook to look at the young mare he had traded for Laura to drive to Sunday School. Mrs. Cook was impressed with the young mare and called Mr. Cook to come look at her. He came and began talking trade immediately, but "Jack" repeated his plans for Laura to drive the mare to church. However, Mr. Cook insisted they trade, which they did eventually. In a few weeks, Mr. Cook came for a trade back; the mare was a "stump sucker". "Jack" told Mr. Cook that he was no cow trader but the best horse trader in Union County and he would not trade back. This ended the matter.

One more horse trade: John Duckworth traded for a poor old blind mare from one of the Spivey's on Upper Choestoe. He took the mare home, fed her, and doctored the eyes. Come spring the horse had gained weight and the eyes were well. A Mr. Reece came by and bought the horse and took her home. A short time afterward, Mr. Reece met his nephew, Zack Jackson, who inquired where he was going. Mr. Reece replied "to Blairsville to hire Pat Harrison to sue Jack Duckworth for lying about the old Spivey mare." Zack Jackson told his uncle he couldn't do that because Jack Duckworth had a license to tell lies. Mr. Reece replied, "The heck you say!" and returned home.

Laura Jane Noblet was the illegitimate daughter of Elsie Noblet. She had an older full sister, Tine, who married a Mr. Bagwell and resided in Dalton, Georgia. Laura also had two half brothers, Claude Wood, who married Elizabeth Duckworth, and William Nicholson. Laura came to live with Francis Marion and Nancy Davis Duckworth when a small girl. She attended two or three short school terms but could read, write, and figure. It is said "Jack" would ask her to figure the interest on a note due him, which she did in her head, and gave the correct answer.

John Francis "Jack" Duckworth and Laura Jane Noblet were the parents of the following children:

1. Frank Calloway and Sarah Christine Duckworth will be discussed in the next chapter.

2. G. Vester Duckworth, 16 October 1892 - 14 October 1965. Married Rubye. One child: Don.

3. William Henry Duckworth, 21 October 1894 - 9 August 1969. An attorney. Married

Willabel Pilcher. Three children: Mary, Dorothy, and William Henry, Jr.

4. Nellie Jane Duckworth, 29 December 1896 - 6 February 1868. Married John A. Wimpey, a merchant. Four children: Charley, Ethel, Ruby, and Charlene.

5. James Lon Duckworth, 29 October 1899 - 31 October 1964. An attorney. Married Ruth Paden. One child: Margaret Jane.

6. Pearl Duckworth, 10 May 1902 - 5 October 1995. Married Herbert Carter Dyer. Six children: Maudie, Elbert, Clyde, Ruby Nell, Tannie Charlene, and Herbert Clinton.

7. Bonnie Emiline Duckworth, 26 August 1905 - 22 May 1994. School teacher. Married Lewis D. Snow. Two children: John William "Bill" and Lonnie Ruth.

8. Verdie Emiline Duckworth, 28 July 1907. Married Franklin Ensley. Seven children: James Cecil, Willibel, Robert, Mildred Ruth, Samuel John, Sarah, and Franklin Jr.

Chapter 9

FRANK CALLOWAY and SARAH CHRISTINE DUCKWORTH

Frank C. Duckworth was born 23 December 1890 and died 10 March 1973 in Greene County, Tennessee. Sarah Christine Jackson was born 7 January 1892 and died 16 November 1972 in Greene County, Tennessee. She was the daughter of Thomas Kimsey and Mary Caroline Collins Jackson. Frank C. was first a farmer and later a merchant. He made his first crop with a Jersey yoke of steers and his first horse was a "stump sucking" mare and a tar grinder wagon. He was a good judge of livestock, quick to make decisions, and quick to trade. He drove a wagon team to Gainesville, Georgia with produce and hauled merchandise back over the mountain when not in his crop. He also hauled cross ties to the railroad at Murphy, North Carolina. He first clerked for his brother-in-law, Robert Jackson. Later he entered business with his brother-in-law, John A. Wimpey, at Blairsville, Georgia. About 1930-31, he sold his interest to John A. Wimpey and moved to Hiawassee, Georgia, where he opened a general merchandise store. He retired from the store and lived in Hiawassee until he moved to Greeneville, Tennessee.

Frank Duckworth was a Baptist, a Mason, and a Democrat. He was a deacon in McConnell Baptist Church, Hiawassee, Georgia. He was a trustee of Young Harris College for 20 years. He was a Democrat serving on the honorary staff of former Georgia governors M. E. Thompson and Carl Sanders. He was a personal friend of former Georgia governors E. D. Rivers and Ellis Arnold and Congressman Phil Landrum of the Ninth Congressional District of Georgia.

Frank Duckworth was able to talk to the Governor of Georgia or a small tenant farmer in Towns or Union County, Georgia. He could adjust or fit in any crowd. He loved people

and showed this love by his actions and daily living. He loved his relatives, rich or poor, but they had to be honest.

He loved my mother with all his might and described this best when he said, "She will work on either side of the tongue she is hitched." They married when quite young, worked and saved all the time. They were the perfect team.

My daddy and I never had the first misunderstanding. We never argued or fussed about any thing. What was the need? He was always right and knew the right and proper thing to do. He was the best friend I ever had.

Frank and Christine Duckworth had two children: Ancel Lee and John Francis "Jack". Both sons were veterinarians. Ancel L. married Sarah Corn and had one son, Ancel Lee Duckworth, Jr. John F. married Delia Swain and had three children: Jackie, Judy, and Frank. John and Delia were divorced and John married Jewel Neal.

This completes the story of My Family. It has been an interesting journey and covers many years. The research and study of the family has reached many areas and involved the study of church, local, and national history. I wish to say this has been a study of love, not only of my father and mother, but love for all my ancestors and relatives.

APPENDIX A

The Ancient History of the Distinguished Surname DUCKWORTH

Following is a history of the English name “Duckworth” which was published by The Hall of Names Ltd., 205 St. John's Hill, Battersea, London SW1 1TH, England The Saxon Chronicle, compiled by monks in the 10th century, now reposes in the British Museum. It is a history of the Saxon settlement of England.

History researchers have examined reproductions of such ancient manuscripts as the Domesday Book (1086), the Ragman Rolls (1291-1296), the Curia Regis Rolls, The Pipe Rolls, the Hearth Rolls, parish registers, baptismal, tax records. They found the first record of the name Duckworth in Cambridgeshire where they had been seated from early times.

Throughout the centuries your name, Duckworth, occurred in many records, manuscripts and documents but not always with your exact spelling. From time to time the surname was spelt Duckworth, Dykeward, Duckword, Duckward, Duckwort, Duckwart, Dickworth, Dickward, Dickword, Dickwort, and these variations in spelling frequently occurred, even between father and son. Scribes and church officials frequently spelled the names phonetically. As a result the same person would be recorded differently on birth, baptismal, marriage, and death certificates.

The Saxon race gave names to many English surnames, not the least of which was the surnames Duckworth. The Saxons, invited into England by the ancient Britons of the 4th century, were a fair skinned people their home was the Rhine Valley. They were led by two brothers, General\Commanders Hengist and Horsa, The Saxons settled in the county of Kent, in southern England. During the next four hundred years they forced the Ancient Britons back into Wales and Cornwall in the west and Cumberland to the north. The Angles occupied the eastern coast, the south folk in Suffolk, and the north folk in Norfolk. Under Saxon rule England prospered under a series of High Kings, the last of which was Harold.

In 1066, there was the Norman invasion from France and their victory at the Battle of Hastings. In 1070, Duke William took an army of 40,000 north and wasted the northern counties, forcing many rebellious Norman nobles and Saxons to flee over the border into Scotland. The Saxons who remained in the south were not treated well under hostile Norman rule, and many also moved northward. Nevertheless, this notable family name, Duckworth, emerged as an influential name in the county of Cambridge. The surname Duckworth comes from the occupation "dykeward," who was a man appointed on the east coast to watch the embankments. In pre-Henry VIII times the name was spelled Dykeward and over the years changed to the contemporary name Duckworth. From the eastern counties of England, the name traveled to the southwest counties to Topsam in Devonshire and Somerset. It also traveled to the northern county of Lancashire, where in 1310 Henry Duckworth held the estate of Oswaldtwistle and Duckworth, in the parish of Whalley. By 1379 Henricus Duckworth had inherited the family estates, continuing a tradition of a long line of Duckworths in this northern community. In the south the Baronet of Topsham had established estates and manors in Devonshire.

In Barwen in Somerset, another branch acquired estates. In nearby Hampshire, the Duckworths were included in a census of large landowners in the middle ages. Sometime later the family moved to London and followed business pursuits. At this same time Lancashire Duckworths moved into the commercial center at that time, the city of Manchester. Those Duckworths who stayed in England continued to flourish, especially in the south. Notable amongst the family at this time was Duckworth at Cambridgeshire.

During the 15th, 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries England was ravaged by plagues, famine, and religious conflict. Protestantism, the newly found political fervor of Cromwellianism and democratic government, and the remnants of the Roman Church rejected all non believers. The changing rule caused burnings, hangings and banishments of all sects and creeds. Many families were freely "encouraged" to migrate to Ireland, or to the "colonies." Some were rewarded with grants of lands, others were banished.

The families who migrated to Ireland became known as the Adventurers for land in Ireland. Protestant settlers "undertook" to keep their faith, being granted lands previously owned by the Catholic Irish. There is no record of this distinguished family migrating to Ireland, but this does not preclude the possibility of individual migration.

The New World offered better opportunities and some migrated voluntarily. Some left Ireland, disillusioned with promises unfulfilled, but many left directly from their home territories. Some also moved to the European continent. Members of the family name Duckworth sailed aboard the huge armada of three-masted sailing ships known as the "White Sails" which plied the stormy Atlantic. These overcrowded ships such as the Hector, the Dove and the Rambler, were pestilence ridden, sometimes 30% to 40% of the passenger list never reaching their destination. During the course of our research we also determined the many Coats Of Arms granted to different branches of the family name. The most ancient grant of a Coat of Arms found was: On a silver background, a black cross with a gold cross surmounted, and at the top two dragon's heads, surrounded by four arrow heads. The Crest was: A dragon's head surrounded by four arrow heads.

Another account of the history of the Duckworth name follows. This is copied from a paper furnished to me by Margaret Duckworth Sewell.

THE NAME and FAMILY of DUCKWORTH

The name of DUCKWORTH is derived from the residence of its first bearers at Duckworth, an estate at Oswaldtwistle, in the Parish of Whalley. Lancashire, England. The literal meaning of the name is "Docca's Estate," Docca being an ancient Anglo-

Saxon personal name of uncertain origin. In ancient English and early American records the name appears in the various spellings of Ducworth, Dukeworth, Dokeworth, Dokworth, Duckeworth, Duckworth, and others.

Later branches of the family removed from Lancashire into the British counties of York, Surrey, and London. These lines in some cases were of lesser gentry of Great Britain.

The earliest definite records of the name in England are those of Henricus or Henry of (de) Dukeworth, who was living in Yorkshire about the year 1379, and of Johannes or John Dukeworth, who was living in Yorkshire at about the same time, or soon thereafter.

Although there is considerable evidence to the effect that the Duckworths were established in the New World at an early period, the records of the emigration and of immigrant ancestors are not, for the most part, available. The first of the name of whom there is definite record in this country was Charles Duckworth, who served as a soldier in King Phillip's War in 1676, but there is no record of the immediate family or descendants of this immigrant to New England.

As early as the year 1684 one John Duckworth, probably the first of his line in America, was living in East Jersey. Later records of the family in New Jersey included those of William Duckworth, who witnessed the will of Thomas Fox, of New Hanover, Burlington County, N.J., in 1727. (The above copied from "The Name and Family of Duckworth" compiled by The Media Research Bureau, Washington, D.C. about 1940's)

A letter to the compiler of these notes dated 20 April 1951, from Ralph Duckworth, Naval Attache, British Embassy, Rio de Janeiro states in part: "My family came from Lancashire England. We have had the same land there since we got it from King Henry VIII in 1538 and my brother and I are the direct line of the family which has gone from father to son ever since the sixteenth century. The original name way back then was Dykewarden as they used to tend the dykes near the sea between Manchester and Liverpool. As far as I know all Duckworths came from this family, so I guess we must be cousins of some sort. Yours very sincerely,"

DUCKWORTH HALL

Duckworth Hall, one of the most historic of Oswaldtwistle's homesteads, with recorded evidence of about 800 years, carries us back to the Norman Lords of Oswaldtwistle. It has an added glamour of romance by reason of its association with one of the most noble orders of chivalry, which played a prominent part in the great crusades: the Knights Hospitallers.

Who, today, dream of association Duckworth Hall with romance of bygone ages? The buildings seem so utterly uninteresting and common-place, without special feature to mark its past greatness or ancient history.

So long as the adjoining hostelry bears its designation of "Duckworth Hall Inn" there is no danger of this famous historical site becoming lost to the people of Oswaldtwistle. We do miss a great deal of the pleasures of life by failing to read the lesson to be learnt from old places, the crumbling ruins, and even public house signs, familiar to our ken. It is only when these things are pointed out to us that familiar and commonplace scenes have surrendered some point of interest. So it is with Duckworth Hall, which carries us back, in imagination, to centuries long gone by.

Duckworth was once considered a separate vill, and its name denotes Saxon origin. It emerges from the mist of antiquity in the days of the Normans, when we find that Robert, son of Adam de Chedle, released to Richard de Radcliffe all his right in an oxgang of land in the vill of Duckworth. The Duckworth lands were in part the property of the Knights Hospitallers, and as we have just seen, in part, the property of the Lords of Oswaldtwistle, as the Radcliffes were.

The estate of Duckworth is named in the lot of the Hospitallers' lands as early as 1292. From that date to the sixteenth century, the Hospitallers' share of the land is often referred to. As to how they became possessed of Duckworth, we have to surmise. Perhaps some devout owner, filled with enthusiasm for the Crusades made a gift to this noble order, which combined religious fervor with benevolent work of relieving the sick and wounded. They were of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem and devoted to the aid of the sick, but added to this they became military monks. Throughout the Crusades they were very prominent, and played a part in all the hazardous enterprises of these adventures known in history as the Great Crusades. After the Crusades, the Order remained in existence until the sixteenth century when they had the Island of Malta given to them and continued there, until Napoleon in 1798. It is pleasing to know that the Order was revived in recent times on a firmer basis, and the modern institution in England of Knights of St. John.......

APPENDIX B

JACKSON FAMILY

Nathan Jackson is the earliest Jackson known so far, found on the 1759 Tax List of Rowan County, North Carolina. The names of his wife and father are unknown. It is thought that Nathan might have been a brother to Samuel Jackson, who came to the area about the same time as Nathan. His father may have been John Jackson, who likewise came to the area about the same time. If Nathan was a brother to Samuel Jackson, he was an emigrant from Northern Ireland.

It is believed that Nathan Jackson had two and possibly three sons. The early Tax Lists of Rowan County, North Carolina name only Edward, but bits of evidence indicate the eldest son was John Jackson, born in Maryland. John came with his father to North Carolina when a young boy. He was a member of Sandy Creek Baptist Church and

served with American forces from North Carolina in the Revolution. John removed to Warren County, Georgia and had a son named Nathan. The other possible son was Joseph Jackson, who was younger than Edward.

Edward Jackson, son of Nathan, was born about 1755 and died about 1822 in Burke County, North Carolina. No record of Edward Jackson owning land in Rowan, Guilford, or Randolph County has been found. Neither has any record of his service in the Revolutionary War, participation in the Movement of Regulations, Tory activity, nor affiliation with the Quakers been located, although he was of the proper age, in the right location, and at the right time to have been involved in one of these. Edward Jackson was still in Randolph County on December 17, 1782, when he witnessed the deed of Josiah Lamb to Edward Beeson.

The first organization of Baptist in what is now Transylvania County, N.C., was an arm of the French Broad Baptist Church, started 17 April 1813 and organized 22 July 1822. Keziah Duckworth joined the Mission prior to the permanent organization. She died 16 January 1820 and was the first recorded death of the membership and the first buried in the Cemetery. She was the first Baptist of record in the Duckworth Family

and her influence must have been great as all four of her sons were active in the Church and she had two grandsons who became Baptist Preachers of some note. Jonathan and Keziah Duckworth were the parents of "The Brevard Seven Duckworths": 1. John McCamie was born 7 June 1797, died 2 March 1887, married Sarah Hamlin, daughter of Elikiam and Ann Reagan Hamlin, and lived at Cathey's Creek; 2. Jane was born ca. l799, died about 1869, married William Harrison Nicholson, son of John Nicholson, and they lived at Cherryfield and Dunn's Rock; 3. David was born in 1801, died in February 1891, married Mary Williamson, daughter of Charles Williamson, and moved from the North Fork of the French Broad River between 1834 and 1836 to Union County Georgia; 4. Jonathan, twin to David, died ca.1870, married Rebecca Hunter and moved from Cherryfield to Union County, Georgia after 1843; 5. William was born 26 April 1805, died 2 July 1884, married Sarah A. Jordan, daughter of Joseph and Hannah Davis Jordan, lived and died aT Cherryfield; 6. Elizabeth was born 5 August 1807, died 1 February 1854, married John Hamlin, son of Elikiam and Ann Reagan Hamlin, and they lived at Cherryfield and Brevard; and 7. Charlotte whose dates of birth and death have been lost but she may have been twin to Elizabeth, married Thomas Aiken, son of Ezekiel and Sarah McCravey Aiken, and they lived at Cherryfield.

VI. David and Mary Williamson. David Duckworth was born 1801 in Burke Co. N.C., the son of Jonathan and Kezziah Duckworth. The father died in Burke Co. 10 November 1807 of a disease That had reached epidemic proportions. The mother had moved to the French Broad River Area between Ben Davidson's Creek and Cathey's Creek by the time of the 1810 U.S. Census. Her neighbors were George Osborn, Sanuel King Jr., Mary Shurk, Kizziah Duckworth, William Wilson Sr., and Benjamin Davidson. Keziah died 16 January 1820 and was the first member of The Cathey's Creek Baptist Church to die and was interned in the adjoining Cemetery. About 1819 David married Mary Williamson, the daughter of Charles Williamson and wife whose name is unknown. Mary had two sisters and two brothers; the name of the eldest sister who married A. E. Sitton is unknown; the youngest sister, Nancy, married William Anthony; the eldest brother was John and the youngest brother was Charles Jr. By 1820 David and Mary were living on the Main North Fork of The French Broad River, in what was then Macon Co. but now Transylvania Co., N.C. His brothers Jonathan and William and sisters Charlotte Akin, Elizabeth Hamlin, and Jane Nicholson lived at Cherryfield and brother John lived at Cathey's Creek in Buncombe Co. some few miles to the east. Between 1830 and 1836 David Duckworth had moved his family and his wife's mother to Union Co., Georgia where he had purchased two land lots, 120 acres, in the Choestoe District on the Araquah District line. He later sold the property on Choestoe to his son. John Williamson Duckworth, and purchased a farm on Araquah Creek east of Harmony Grove Baptist Church. His neighbors in 1870 were: John A. Christopher, Peter

Flowers, Maria Akens, William C. Hughes, Jonathan Duckworth, Southier Davis, John Teague, and John L. Logan. David and Mary Duckworth were faithful members of The Baptist Church of Christ at Choestoe, from their becoming members 9 October 1836 by experience. On 9 September 1841 David was elected a Deacon and was ordained 12 March 1842. He was repeatedly appointed delegate or messenger from The Choestoe Church to the annual Baptist Association Meeting, in fact more often than any other member. During the twenty year period from 12 August 1840 to 8 September 1860 David was a delegate eighteen times. In a book published some years ago about Choestoe and Choestoe people it is erroneously stated that David Duckworth was excluded from membership of the Choestoe Church for fighting. The Church Minutes, a microfilm copy of which are on deposit in Georgia Archives, Atlanta, Georgia, show that he indeed did have a fight with John Souther for cutting a road over David Duckworth's property and the matter was taken up in the Church Business Meetings several times and a special Presbytery was called to resolve the question. In the end David Duckworth was kept in membership but told he should have treated the matter differently. The Church Minutes show that David Duckworth was excluded from membership 12 October 1867 for "hard sayings against Brother Pruett and Brother Curtis. On 6 November Elder William Pruett requested a letter of dismission and in April 1869 Brother Curtis, Minister of the Gospel, requested a letter of dismission. The Church Minutes show that Mary Duckworth died in 1885 and that David died in February 1891. Frank C. Duckworth, great, great grandson of David Duckworth, said that David left N.C. searching for land suitable for forage on which to raise horses. David practiced good animal husbandry and was a renown horseman. It has been said that he always rode a good, fat horse, and the late Mrs. Sarah Souther Dyer said he always wore pretty boots. David Duckworth's horse bell, which he brought to Georgia from N.C., is still in the family. Once at Circuit Court in Blairsville David had a young horse for sale and was asking $50.00 for the colt which was fat and slick. A man asked how much he was feeding the colt, to which David answered, "two ears of corn at a feed". The man said "I will give you $50.00 for the horse if you will put shoes on his feet"; to which David replied "I want $50.00 for the horse and you can shoe him your self". Finally the man bought the horse, paid for him, and asked, "how much did you say you fed this horse?" To which David replied, "I feed him two ears of corn at a feed but I feed him four times a day". David and Mary Duckworth had twelve children to reach maturity, the first five being born in NC. Their children were as follows: 1. John Williamson Duckworth b. 1821 d.5 July 1913 m. 31 December 1846, Susannah Jackson, daughter of William and Nancy Owenby Stanley. 2.

At time of an election, Francis Marion and Frank C. Duckworth would let the word out that they were voting for the man opposite their candidate to keep General J. from voting for the opposition. General J. did not want anyone to think that Francis M. and Frank C. were "handling" him. General J. did not believe in education and said if a child was going to be a criminal that he would be a bigger criminal if he had an education and it was best for him not to know anything.

JACKSON AUTHENTIC HISTORY OF THE DESCENDANTS OF EPHRAIM JACKSON CHAPTER 1

EPHRAIM JACKSON

Ephraim Jackson was born in England at Eccleston, Lancashire about 1658. He came to America in 1687, being then about 27 years of age. In 1695 he married Rachel Newlin, daughter of Nicholas and Elizabeth Newlin who came from Montmellick Monthly Meeting, Ireland, in 1683 to Concord. She was born about 1674. After her marriage, her parents moved to Edgemont. Their transfer of membership from Montmellick, dated 2 MO 25th 1683, was signed by a committee which included the great Irish Quaker, William Edmunson. Ephraim Jackson, on arrival, had landed at Newcastle, Delaware, but after their marriage they were members of Chester Monthly Meeting in Pennsylvania. Ephraim died 11-1-1733 and Rachel in 1742. Their children were:

(All of the preceding information is from the book “GENEALOGY of the JACKSON FAMILY - Their Legendary History for the Eleventh Century in England AND The Authentic History of Ephraim Jackson, the first emigrant to America, 1687, and his descendants to January 1, 1953 - A survey of the Jacksons and their kin in America”, compiled by I. Ernest Jackson, Boston, Mass.

The following is excerpted from the book,

“The Jackson Family - A History of Ephraim Jackson - First Ancestor to come to America and his Descendants- 1684-1960"

Author: Jesse Calvin CrossPublication: 1961

“Ephraim Jackson - Our first ancestor to come to this country was Ephraim Jackson, who emigrated from England. The author has made an extensive search of available records and has concluded from circumstantial evidence and other related factors that our first ancestor was the Ephraim Jackson who first settled in Bucks County,PA., appearing in the Pennsylvania Magazine, p. 231 of volume 9, under the title "A Partial List of Families who Resided in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, prior to 1687, with their date of arrival." The following is quoted from this article. "Jacob Hall of Macclesfield, Cheshire, England, shoemaker and Mary, his wife, arrived in Maryland the 3d of the 1th mo. 1684, in the 'Friendship,' of Liverpool, the Mr. Edmund Croston, and afterwards transported to this river, where his family arrived 28th 3d Mo. 1685. Children, Jacob, born the 8th 1th Mo. 1679, Sarah and Joseph. Servant, Ephraim Jackson, to serve 4 years, and to have meat, drink, washing & lodging, and L6 per annum."It is certain that Ephraim Jackson returned to Cheshire, England, in 1709 on an extended trip for a visit and did not return until the early part of 1710. Upon his return he produced a certificate of attendance from Newton Monthly Meeting, Cheshire, England, which is recorded in the Providence Monthly Meeting, Chester County, PA., and reads as follows: "Ephraim Jackson being returned from Great Britain and Produced a Certificate

from Newton Monthly Meeting in Cheshire to the satisfaction of this meeting."The Falls Monthly Meeting, Bucks County, PA., dated 5-3-1695 minutes contain the following: "Upon request of Ephraim Jackson by Joshua Hoopes and Joseph Kirkbride to have a cetificate of his conversation whilst amongst us and of his clearness in relation of marriage, Wherefore it is agreed that Richard Hough and John Palmer do make inquiry concerning the same and account to the next meeting." . . . Ephraim Jackson and Rachel Newlin were married at the Concord Monthly Meeting, 12-10-1695, the marriage ceremony being performed at the meeting held on the same date, immediately following the second reading of their intention of marriage. Rachel Newlin was born at Mountmellick, Ireland, daughter of Nicholas and Elizabeth Newlin, a prominent family who came here from Ireland. . . .Ephraim purchased 120 acres of land from Phillip Yarnall, which is recorded in Chester County Deed Book, p. 397, the deed bearing the date of the Eight Day of the seventh month, 1696. In 1703 he purchased 228 acres of land in Middletown Township, Chester County, PA., which is recorded at Harrisburg, PA., Ref - A2, p.520, patent by William Penn. (Note: This land is now in Delaware County, PA.,)Chester Quarterly Meeting Minutes of 1712 6mo 4 The committee appointed by the last Q.M., to inspect the Minutes, report they have done so and found few mistakes and have procured Ephraim Jackson to inscribe them into the new book, the Meeting him four pounds for his labour." This has been described to be beautifully and delicately written. Ephraim was well known for his excellent penmanship and many deeds, wills, marriages and legal documents written by him are still in existance. Ephraim Jackson had received a better education than usual for a person of his day. He held the position of Clerk of Chester Monthly Meeting of Friends, of which he was an exemplary member. He was employed in civil affairs, especially where good penmanship was needed and was a successful farmer and a man of sound business ability. In 1710 he represented Chester County in the Provincial Assembly. He was conscientiously opposed to selling rum to Indians and took a firm stand against this practice, and was one of the active civic minded citizens who petitioned for a road to be built from Chester to Philadelphia. He was hightly esteemed for his integrity, intelligence and accuracy of judgment. . . . He reared seven (?) children to whom he gave advantages of education superior to those usually accorded in his day, and in all family affairs he was a pattern of a Christian gentleman.

Herschel LeRoy WHITE was born on January 9, 1910 in Columbus, Indiana. He died on December 12, 1976 in Indianapolis, Indiana. He was buried in Washington Park Cemetary;

Indpls, Ind.. He had Social Security Number 304-07-4923. Herschel detested his given name and went by the initials of "H. L." or the nick name of "Whitey" for most of his adult life. Most of his friends and business associates never knew his real name. He worked in sales since he was a small boy, however, his first experience in sales was not a good one. His father, Irven, sold Bibles door to door and often went from Columbus to the smaller surrounding towns and spent the day selling house to house. Herschel decided at 14, at the end of his sixth grade that he was ready to quit school and join his father in business. Irven gave him a sample kit, took him to Seymour, Indiana and said, "Knock on every door, sell 'em a Bible and I'll pick you up in time to return home for supper". At 4:00pm Irven went to the designated spot and no Herschel, Irven drove all over town and still no Herschel. Irven contacted the Seymour police and they searched but were unable to locate him. Irven went back home to see if Herschel had contacted his mother Ida, and there he was, sitting under a tree drinking lemonade in the shade. He had knocked on two doors and when they turned him down he walked the 17 miles back home to Columbus and decided this was not his cup of tea. No record was made of Irven's reaction but he must have given him another chance and it must have worked out better. Herschel never returned to school and he worked his way to top salesman in every field he entered from that time on. He sold Bibles until the depression, he dug ditches for a dollar a day during the worst of the depression and joined the Civilian Conservation Corps when all work dried up in Indiana. He moved to New Lebanon, Ohio and sold milk door to door, first from a horse drawn wagon, then in one of the first milk trucks owned by the Blossom Hill Dairy in New Lebanon. He moved back to Indianapolis, Indiana and sold bread for Colonial Bakery to groceries and restaurants. He worked for a period as a door to door laundry / dry cleaner route man for Lux Laundry, he later became route supervisor for them before leaving to sell tools to garages and filling station mechanics for Snap-On Tools. In each of his endeavors he worked his way from the bottom to positions of middle management. He was up for promotion to District Sales Manager with the tool company until they discovered that he had only a sixth grade

education. When they refused to promote him for that reason he quit and started his own company. He said many times, that it was the best thing that ever happened to him. He enjoyed a great success with White's Tool Company and achieved more personal success and realized more financial comfort than he ever thought possible.

Everyone was on their way but Jerry got there first. When he was 8

years old in 1944 his Uncle Andy came to visit in his Navy uniform and told of the big ships and vast oceans, Jerry was hooked and said from that time that he would join the Navy and learn a trade just like his Uncle Andy.
