1152	--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Excerpted from -- The Collie Family of Pittsylvania Co, VA, their Scottish origins, relatives & descendants by Betty Cox Collier The Collie Family p. 656 Dennis Cornwell (d. pre 1735), father of Charles Cornwell (d. 1781) Dennis Cornwell, father of Charles Cornwell, is thought to be the Dennis Cornwell who was transported to Virginia (apparently from England) sometime around 1692 by Richard Taylor. Subsequently, on April 20, 1694, Taylor was granted 293 acres in Nansemond County, VA, for importing Dennis Cornwell and five other persons as settlers for the Virginia colony.3 If typical, the date of the grant would have been about two years after the event. Over several decades, this policy was responsible for bringing in thousands of ablebodied men and women, who helped develop Virginia and whose descendants number in the millions today. From information in a Westmoreland County, VA, deed, dated 1698, Dennis Cornwell's wife appears to have been Ann Dunkin, daughter of a Peter Dunkin, Sr. According to other ******** researchers, Peter Dunkin, Sr. was born in 1633 and died about 1676 when his will apparently was proved.4 Dennis Cornwell is mentioned in at least twelve court records dating between 1693 and 1704 in Westmoreland County, VA, and then in three court records (all in 1711) occurring in Stafford County, VA, where he apparently moved sometime by 1711.5 Dennis had died by May 20,1735, when a Prince William County, VA, deed reported the sale of 100 acres he had owned in his lifetime from a 200-acre tract he had purchased in 1699. The sale was to John Tayloe of "Lunnenbury Parish" in Richmond County, VA, and was done by his sons, Charles and Peter Cornwell, who were identified as being of Hambleton Parish in Prince William County, VA. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Excerpted from -- The Collie Family of Pittsylvania Co, VA, their Scottish origins, relatives & descendants by Betty Cox Collier The Collie Family p. 656 Footnote: 4 Peter Dunkin, Sr. apparently lived in or near Westmoreland Co., VA. He is discussed in the Genealogy of Dodson, Lucas, Etc., by S. Emmet Lucas. In addition to Ann Dunkin, Peter Dunkin, Sr. appears to have had the following children whose identities are shown in 1694 and 1701 Westmoreland County, VA, records: 1) Elizabeth, wife of George Harrison, 2) Ellen Dunkin (unmarried), 3) Rebecca, wife of Thomas Kirtley, and 4) Elinor (Dunkin) Bryan, who lived in Charles County, MD, in 1701. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- found at findagrave.com on 5/12/2020 Peter Duncan, Jr Birth: 17 Jun 1624 Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, Scotland Death: 9 Sep 1676 (aged 52) Virginia, USA Burial: Unknown Memorial #: 49759093 Bio: 9th great grandparents Peter and Bessie Caldwell were married 2 June 1646, Cannongate, Edinburgh, Mid Lothian, Scotland Family Members Parents Peter Duncan 1597-1676 Spouse Elizabeth Caldwell Duncan 1630-1671 Children Charles Duncan 1647-1712 Ann Duncan Cornhill 1666-Unknown Created by: dek_tx (47124601) Added: 15 Mar 2010 URL: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/49759093/peter-duncan Citation: Find a Grave, database and images (https://www.findagrave.com : accessed 13 May 2020), memorial page for Peter Duncan, Jr (17 Jun 16249 Sep 1676), Find a Grave Memorial no. 49759093, ; Maintained by dek_tx (contributor 47124601) Unknown. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	Dunkin, Peter Jr (I1964)

DERRYBERRY Surname: Derryberry Given Name: John J. Sex: M Birth: ABT 1710 1 Death: ABT 1789 in Morganton, Burke Co., North Carolina _UID: 5A5D9227ED59D511A04F501B59C10000101B Note: [Derryber.ged] He is not listed as Sr. in records found, but is shown as Sr. here to diffrentiate him from the younger John that was in Burke Co. at that time. The use of Jr., at that time, simply meant the younger of two people with like names. John, Jr. is not proven, but assumed, to be John, Sr's son. Hisparents are not proven. Here are the clues. Until such time as conclusive proof is found, then his parents are subjective. The known clues are presented here for those who care to decide for themslves who they believe the progenator to be. The J. could stand for Jacob and the name tranlated from Hans Jacob Durrenberger or Johann Jacob Durrenberger. According to Daniel Debus, an Alsatian who may prove related, who lives in France, says that in Alsatian pronunciation Durrenberger (with the umlatted u) would sound like Derryberry orDerreberri. The Durenbergers of Mertzweiller or Griesbach, Alsace are welldocumented. Some Derryberry researcher, believes that John's father's last name was Dewsbury, changed to Derryberry. The name Dewsbury is found in Essex, Elizabeth City, Isle of Wight and in Scurry, Sussex, Middlesex, York and and Brunswick, England. The Dewsberry in Essex Co., VA is shown only one time found as something like Derryberry. It could well be a mis-spelling by an illiterate clerk since it is found only one time. Without better proof, subjection only, I doubt any connection between those and my Derryberrys. A list of imagrants lists the emigration of Stefan, Jan/Hans Michael and Jon/Johann Jacob Dürrenberger who arrived on the Robert and Oliver (ship) 11 Sep 1737-38,out of Rotterdam with German Palatines. The surnames as shown variously as Durabary, Durenberger, Tiereberger and Derryberry. George's will listed a son caller John Tiereberger. He is also referred to as John Durenberger. There are currently Terryberrys in the Sussex Co., NJ area. They may, or may not, be related. However, it appears that the will filed in Sussex Co., NJ in 1767 tends to indicate a strong probability. No proof has been found that widow Derryberry in Burke Co, NC in late 1700s was John's widow or that she wasAnna; however there is strong evidence to her name being Anna. Various records show her as Ann. It is therorized that John was not a son of George Derryberry, but was a son of Joseph Dürrenberger and Anna Margaretha Bastain fromAlsace area that was then Germany but now in France. Three brothers arrivedin Philadelphia, PA from Rotterdam on the ******* Robert and Oliver on 11 Sep 1738,Jacob b 1717, Stephen b. 1711 and Michael b. 1716, sons of Hans Peter and EvaCatherine Dürrenberger, according to D. A. Kastens.. Mr Kastens has researched extensivly in the German Palatine, and some in Straubourg and published several books on Palatine church records, Their last names have been recordedas Dürrenberger, Durnberger, Dureberry, Terryberry and possibly others varaiations. 'One Hundred and Eighteenth Anniversary of the Settlement of New Jersey by the Germns and the Sesqui-centennial of German Valley 1713 - 1893', a small book found in the Morristown, NJ Library, states that the Robert and Oliver arrived Philadelphia 11 Sep 1738, Walter Goodman, Commander, last from Dover with 320 passengers, that among the passengers were Stephan Durabercher or Steven 'Stoffe' Terriberry and Hans Mich. Torenberger. It does not mentionJacob, leading me to believe he settled elsewhere, possibly Lehigh, PA, where Jacob and Anna Bastain were supposedly married.in the Jordan Lutheran Church. Descendants have been found in northwest NJ using the name Derraberry upinto the mid 1800s. Found on the Terryberry web site that Hans Peter Dürrenberger (Terryberry) married Eva Catherine ______ 25 Sep 1708 at Mertzweiler,Alsace, Germany, except the German spelling is Elsass.

He is not listed as Sr. in records found, but is shown as Sr. here to differentiate him from the younger John that was in Burke Co. at that time. The use of Jr., at that time, simply meant the younger of two people with like names. John, Jr. is not proven, but assumed, to be John, Sr's son. His parents are not proven. Here are the clues.

The Dewsberry in Essex Co., VA is shown only one time found as something like Derryberry. It could well be a mis-spelling by an illiterate clerk since it is found only one time. Without better proof, subjection only, I doubt any connection between those and my Derryberrys. It is noted that there were people referred to as Derraberry in both Morris co., NJ and Burke Co., NC in the late 1700s. Those in Burke Co. got referred to by other variations, such as Derriberry and Derreberry, the latter of which is still used by many NC family members. This stronger clues to me of the origin of the name, but not proof until better information is discovered. No proof has been found that widow Derryberry in Burke Co, NC in late1700s was John's widow or that she was Anna; however there is strong evidence to her name being Anna. Various records show her as Ann. It is theorized that John was a son of Joseph Dürrenberger and Anna Margaretha Bastain from Alsace area that was then Germany but now in France. Our John was in Burke Co., NC before 1778. He may have lived in Essex and Surrey Counties, VA before going to Burke Co. He is possibly the John Derryberry who had land in Cape May, NJ, found listed in a deed there of land joining that owned by John Derryberry. This John owned land in Burke Co., VA in 1779, according to deed records. The Journal of Burke Co., NC Genealogy, Vol. 4, p. 50, item 388, lists him receiving 100 acres on both sides of Kennedy's Fork of the Silver Creek joining land owned by Michael Derryberry, recorded 28 Oct 1782. Ron Jones in his book on the Derreberry branch refers to Ann as "Widow Derreberry". There was a John Derreberry in the 7th Regt., Burke Militia re: page 446 of Revised Edition of The History of NC 1777-1920, probably his son John. Some give an eighth child, Hannah, but Guy Derryberry believes this is John Jr's. widow. There is controversy and doubt that all the children attributed to this couple were actually their children. Some may actually belong to other Derryberry families of the area, such as his brothers, or their children. Various lines of the family voice the belief that there is American Indian heritage in the family. The strongest seems to come from the Adam, Jacob and Daniel lines. No proof has come out of the source of these beliefs that have been passed down through the generations. However, with the sketchiness of the NC 18th century records, the unproven but strongly indicated family groups and the relating that the ones from that generation or series of generations spoke very poor English, indicates that if there is genuine American Indian heritage it may well have come through John's wife Anna, according to Guy Fay Derryberry. There were many marriages between frontiersmen and Cherokee women. They were seldom recorded as Indian women. Another indication is in the fact that Derryberrys of that era were described as having dark complexions, dark brown to black hair and about 5 feet 10 inches tall, a total absence of light complexions, blonde or red hair. This tends to point to one of two heritage sources: American Indian or Black Dutch origin. Black Dutch ?

Thank you. ------------------------------------------- Name: John J DERRYBERRY 1 2 Sex: M Birth: 1710 in Essex Co., Virginia 2 Note: [Hutchins.FTW] John died about 1789, Morganton, Burke Co., NC. He is not listed as Sr. in records found, but is shown as Sr. here to differentiate him from the younger John that was in Burke Co. at that time. The use of Jr., at that time, simply meant the younger of two people with like names. John, Jr. is not proven, but assumed, to be John, Sr's son. His parents are not proven. Here are the clues. Until such time as conclusive proof is found, then his parents are subjective. The known clues are presented here for those who care to decide for themselves who they believe the progenitor to be. Some Derryberry researcher, believes that John's father's last name was Dewsbury, changed to Derryberry. The name Dewsbury is found in Essex, Elizabeth City, Isle of Wight and in Scurry, Sussex, Middlesex, York and Brunswick, England. The Dewsberry in Essex Co., VA is shown only one time found as something like Derryberry. It could well be a mis-spelling by an illiterate clerk since it is found only one time. Without better proof, subjection only, I doubt any connection between those and my Derryberrys. It is noted that there were people referred to as Derraberry in both Morris co., NJ and Burke Co., NC in the late 1700s. Those in Burke Co. got referred to by other variations, such as Derriberry and Derreberry, the latter of which is still used by many NC family members. This stronger clues to me of the origin of the name, but not proof until better information is discovered. No proof has been found that widow Derryberry in Burke Co, NC in late 1700s was John's widow or that she was Anna; however there is strong evidence to her name being Anna. Various records show her as Ann. It is theorized that John was a son of Joseph Dürrenberger and Anna Margaretha Bastain from Alsace area that was then Germany but now in France. Our John was in Burke Co., NC before 1778. He may have lived in Essex and Surrey Counties, VA before going to Burke Co. He is possibly the John Derryberry who had land in Cape May, NJ, found listed in a deed there of land joining that owned by John Derryberry. This John owned land in Burke Co., VA in 1779, according to deed records. The Journal of Burke Co., NC Genealogy, Vol. 4, p. 50, item 388, lists him receiving 100 acres on both sides of Kennedy's Fork of the Silver Creek joining land owned by Michael Derryberry, recorded 28 Oct 1782. Ron Jones in his book on the Derreberry branch refers to Ann as "Widow Derreberry". There was a John Derreberry in the 7th Regt., Burke Militia re: page 446 of Revised Edition of The History of NC 1777-1920, probably his son John. Some give an eighth child, Hannah, but Guy Derryberry believes this is John Jr's. widow. There is controversy and doubt that all the children attributed to this couple were actually their children. Some may actually belong to other Derryberry families of the area, such as his brothers, or their children. Various lines of the family voice the belief that there is American Indian heritage in the family. The strongest seems to come from the Adam, Jacob and Daniel lines. No proof has come out of the source of these beliefs that have been passed down through the generations. However, with the sketchiness of the NC 18th century records, the unproven but strongly indicated family groups and the relating that the ones from that generation or series of generations spoke very poor English, indicates that if there is genuine American Indian heritage it may well have come through John's wife Anna, according to Guy Fay Derryberry. There were many marriages between frontiersmen and Cherokee women. They were seldom recorded as Indian women. Another indication is in the fact that Derryberrys of that era were described as having dark complexions, dark brown to black hair and about 5 feet 10 inches tall, a total absence of light complexions, blonde or red hair. This tends to point to one of two heritage sources: American Indian or Black Dutch origin. Black Dutch refers to a human strain produced by the invading Roman Army intermarrying with Germanic or mid-European women. The resultant children had mixed Roman and Germanic features. These are areas that future family researchers may find revealing with the advent of more information available that was in the past. John probably married Anna before coming to NC. If he is the Hans Jacob who arrived in 1738, then he married her in Alsace and she was Anna Margareta Bastain, instead of Anna Buck as has been surmised. In "Tenacity and Adversity...", by Edward D. Roundtree, found in the VA State Library, it tells about the great road in the early 1700s. "There was one road 435 miles long leading from PA into NC. This great road lead out of Philadelphia in a westerly direction by" Lancaster and York to Winchester, VA, through Shenandoah Valley to Staunton and Roanoke, where it turned southeast to cross the Blue Ridge Mountains (probably following the Staunton River through the mountains), then divided with a branch leading to Winston-Salem, NC. There it connected with the "Trading Path" just north of the Yadkin River at Trading Ford (east of Salisbury a few miles) continuing to Salisbury, then southwest by Concord to Carlotte and on to Columbia, SC. The Trading Trail was not wide enough for a wagon, but was used by pack animals to move trade goods. The Derryberrys probably came that way. Anna's maiden name is believed by some to be Buck, since a son carries Buck as a middle name. This was a custom of the time, on up to early 20th century, in which case, her father may have been Andrew Buck. It is possible that she was Anna Margaretha Bastain, wife of Jacob Durrenberger, brother to Hans Michael/Michel of NJ. Teresa Jones has strong clues that Jacob Durrenberger was our progenitor. She hopes to find records that will prove or disprove her theory in her lifetime.

For only five of these children are there better than rough approximations for dates of birth.

Mary Cowper 1588 1598 Agnes COOPER 1590 1621 Thomas Cooper 1617 1675 ?? two sons named Thomas? - died same year? That Thomas Cooper was apprenticed to Francis Stiles is evidenced by an order of the Court at Hartford, CT March 28, 1637: "ord that Mr Francis Stiles shall teach Geo[rge] Chapple, Tho[mas] Coop[e]r & Tho[mas] Barber his servants in the trade of a carpenter according to his promise for their service of their term behind 4 days in a week only to saw and slit their own work that they are to frame themselves with their own hands together with himself or some other master workman, the time to begin for the performance of this order 14 days hence without fail." Thomas Cooper's first residence was Windsor, CT. Cooper appeared in Springfield around 1641. Cooper was persuaded to leave Windsor for Springfield, by which time he had married Sarah Slye. Sarah Slye Father George Slye She was baptized on October 29, 1615 in Lapworth, Warwickshire, England Sister of Capt. Robert Slye who settled in Bushwood, on St. Clement's manor, St. Mary's County, Maryland.

He mentioned "Should all my children die under age, and without issue, then I giveÉRich Neck, on St. Clement's manor, to the eldest son of my dear sister Mrs. Elizabeth Russell of London; my plantation called Lapworth to my nephew Timothy Cooper, and Norwood, Lapworth Lodge, and Clear Doubt to my nephew Thomas Cooper, both of Springfield in New England." Capt. Slye mentioned three nephews, one (unnamed) son of his sister Elizabeth Russell of London, and the Cooper brothers of Springfield. On January 27, 1642 the inhabitants of Springfield sold "to the said Thomas Cooper the dwelling house and fouer acres of meddow, more or less, appertayning to the house and fouer acres and about one halfe of the wet marish, before his house, and one acre and one halfe of the corner meddow fenced, and seven acres just over against it on the other side of the river and in future dividents according to a single lott of fouer acre to a house lot." The next year, 1643, he was allotted a house lot of five acres. On April 6, 1643 Thomas Cooper was granted a five-acre house lot, two acres of meadow and one acre of meadow "on the other side of the Great River" at Springfield. His homelot was the one granted to John Cable, who sold it to the town on his departure for Fairfield, CT. Thomas purchased it of the town for £25. It was 14 rods wide and extended from the river eastward across the wet meadow and thence upon the highland, eighty rods beyond. It was situated next north of William Pynchon's homelot, and was where the railroad now crosses Main Street. On January 22, 1651/2, "Ther is granted to Tho Cooper, upon Mill River below Rich Sikes his meddow, a psel about an acre and one halfe of meddow, in 2 or 3 lotts, which is dew him in lew of 1 acre & one halfe he falls short on ye other side of ye river. This he accepts though it hold out not one acre and one halfe." In May 1654, Thomas sold from his homelot purchase the "Hassky" meadow containing 2 acres lying between the street and the upland to the east, for 30 shillings to John Pynchon. On January 2, 1655/6, Thomas was granted "four acres next above Robert AshlyÉ& this upon condition he stay 5 years in town." On December 10, 1658, he was granted the "2d portion of land on this side of Woronoco River." On January 27, 1659/60, he was granted "a parcel of swamp land lying by Agawam River side." With three other men, Thomas was granted "all the meadow that lies upon the north branch of the next brook that runs into the Great River below Agawam River" on February 12, 1660/1. The transaction was particularly interesting in that Thomas and three other men were granted land to be shared equally among themselves and decided among themselves where each man's land should lie. On March 13, 1660/1, he was granted "twenty acres of upland & swamp over Agawam River...also...a little piece of meadow land on the west side of the swamp." Thomas was granted "eight or ten acres of land upon the hill northwesterly from his cellar over Agawam River" on June 1664. And on October 12, 1670, he was granted "16 acres of lowland on the most southerly branch of the 3 mile brook." On November 8, 1662 "Ensign Thomas Cowper of Springfield" deeded to "his brother [in-law?] Henry Glover of New Haven...all his right, title & interest...which the said Ensign Cowper hath in & unto one-quarter part or one-fourth part of all those lands which were granted to him the said Ensign Cowper which lands lie at or by the place called Woronoco on the west side of the River Connecticutt." In 1644 the government of Springfield was changed to place it in the charge of a group of selectmen. Of the first such group Thomas Cooper was a member. The record of the town meeting of July 26 of that year reads: "It is agreed this day by General Courte that Henry Smith, Tho cooper, Daniel Chapin, Richard Sikes and Henry Burt shall have power to order anything they shall judge for ye good of ye town and to order in all prudential affairs they shall have power for a year space to prevent damage of ye town & they five or any three of them shall also be given power & virtue also to hear complaints, to arbitrate controversies, to lay out High ways, to make bridges, to repair High waies specially to order ye making of ye way over muxie meddow, to see to the scouring of ditches and to the killing of wolves and to training up of the children to some good calling or any other thing they shall judge to be ye profit of ye town." During the next thirty years Cooper would be chosen to be a selectman eighteen times. In some years there was no election and the incumbents would be held over for another term in office. The dates on which he was elected selectman were: September 26, 1644 September 23, 1646 November 2, 1647 November 6, 1648 November 5, 1650 November 4, 1651 November 1, 1653 October 31, 1654 November 6, 1655 November 4, 1656 November 2, 1658 February 5, 1660/1 February 3, 1662/3 February 6, 1665/6 February 4, 1667/8 February 1, 1669/70 February 4, 1672/3 January 9, 1673/4 1645 was a busy year for Thomas since earlier he had agreed to build the meeting-house. On February 28, 1644/5 "a bargain made by the inhabitants of Springfield with Thomas Cooper for the building of a meeting-houseÉto be finished by the 30th September 1646, in consideration of which work the plantation do covenant to pay him four score pounds." This was the first meeting-house in Springfield. It was to be forty feet long and twenty-five feet in width, with two large windows on each side and one on each end. There were to be two turrets, one for a bell and the other to serve as a watch tower. The building was completed by the end of September and at a contract price of £80. After being under construction for less than a month the town agreed that Thomas had satisfactorily completed his contract. He was to receive payment in "wheate, pork, wampum, debts and labor." Thomas was a member of a committee to assign the seats in the meeting-house. On December 23, 1659 and again on February 23, 1662/3, Thomas Cooper was in the front pew. Later on February 3, 1673/4, Thomas was on the committee on crowded conditions in the meeting-house. Thomas took the oath of fidelity on February 6, 1648/9. He was sworn as freeman (as "Ensign Thomas Cooper") on May 8, 1663. He was elected a Deputy to the General Court on April 29, 1688 (as "Lieut. Tho[mas] Cooper"); on May 27, 1668, "Lieut. Clarke & Lieut. Cooper, on their request, having been long absent from their homes, are dismissed the service of this Court." Thomas served on many, many important committees of a public nature. He served on the Hampshire petit jury, February 8, 1643/4, April 10, 1645, March 2, 1653/4, March 1, 1654/5, September 27, 1659, March 27, 1660, September 25, 1663, September 26, 1665, September 25, 1666. Thomas was a member of the Coroner's jury April 7, 1660. He was on the committee on highways and bridges between Springfield and Hadley September 30, 1662, and the committee on highway between Hadley and Windsor September 29, 1663. In 1645 Cooper was appointed measurer of lands for the town of Springfield on January 8, 1645/6, September 4, 1646, November 3, 1646, February 21, 1649/50, March 14, 1653/4. In this capacity surveyed the lands of "Longe Meddow" [Long Meadow] in 1646. On October 21, 1669, Thomas was appointed by the General Court to serve on the committee of ministerial maintenance at Hadley, and the committee for "the erecting of a township [Suffield] on the west side of the River Conecticott lying southward of Springfield & Westfield bounds," on October 12, 1670. Thomas was appointed Assessor on February 10, 1652/3, February 7, 1661/2, and August 16, 1672. He was made Highway Surveyor February 7, 1659/60. The next year on August 14, 1662, Thomas was appointed Constable in addition to his other duties. The town elected Thomas Clerk of the Writs for Springfield February 3, 1662/3. On March 31, 1663, "Ensign Cooper of Springfield being presented to this court as chosen by the said town for Clerk of Writs, the Court allowed of him for that work & service." He was Clerk of the Writs for many years, so must have been educated above the norm. The duties of this office included the issue of summons, granting of writs of attachment in civil cases and to enter in the town books details as to births, deaths and marriages. On March 29, 1664, Ensign Thomas Cooper petitioned the court to permit him to be relieved of his appointment as Springfield Clerk of the Writs, but the Court did not permit this relief. He was also made a member of a permanent committee to make grants of land in the Plantation - a task formerly falling to the selectmen. He was on the committee to distribute land May 19, 1645, November 21, 1654, February 5, 1660/1, February 4, 1661/2, May 11, 1663, and on the committee to purchase Mr. Moxon's land September 14, 1652. Thomas was on the committee to "dispose of the land at Woronoco" January 7, 1655/6 and the committee to "make a draft of the lands to be presented to the Court" February 15, 1660/1. The year 1661 saw Ensign Cooper along with Thomas Dumbleton appointed to lay out the highway to Chicoppe, now Chicopee, in accordance with their complete discretion as to location and width. He served on the committee on highways December 30, 1664. Thomas had many transactions with the Indians in the purchase and mortgage of land. It was sometimes hard to determine which Sachem had the authority to transfer title. In 1660 Cooper gave a mortgage on a parcel of land supposedly owned by a Woronoco Indian named Amoacussen. In 1664, upon the failure of the Indian to make good on the mortgage, an absolute deed to the property was granted. Three other Sachems now appealed to the court alleging that they, as well as Amoacussen, were owners of the land in question. The court sustained their contention and Cooper was obliged to pay them one hundred ten fathoms of wampum which was to be recovered from Amoacussen. Most of the settlers were unskilled in dealing with the Indians and often employed experienced traders to conduct negotiations for them in the purchase of land. As such an experienced trader the Plantation of Quabaug, now Brookfield, appealed to Thomas to secure for them the Indian title to the land they were then occupying. In view of the current interest in Indian land titles this transaction is of more than passing interest: "At a General Court held at Boston 20th May 1660: In Answer to the peticion of severall Inhabitants of Ipswich, This Court Judgeth it meete to Graunt the petitioners sixe miles square or so much land as shall be conteyned in such compasse in a place near Quabaugponds, provided they have twenty families there resident within 3 years, & that they have an able minister, settled there within said terme, such as the Court shall approve, and that they shall make due provision in some way or other for the future, either by setting apart of land or what else shall be thought meete for the continuance of the ministry among them; And if they should fail in any of these particulars above mentioned this Graunt of the Court to be voyed and of none effect." This grant was dated 31 May 1660. In order to begin a settlement and take possession it was necessary to secure title from the Indians who were the owners. The deed to this tract follows: Here followeth the Deed of the Purchase of the lands at Quabaug, now called Brookfield, from the Indian Shattoockquis together with Lieut. Cooper his designation of the said deed to the Inhabitants of Quabaug now called Brookfield for the said deed was framed in the Name of Lieut.

[picture of mark resembling a child's swing set] Shattoockquis an Indian above mentioned did own and acknowledge this to be his act and deed giving up all his right title & interest in the lands above mentioned unto Thomas Cooper his Associates & Assignes as above said this tenth day of November 1665. Before me, John Pynchon. All of this activity proved to be too much and in the year 1665 he was fined six pence for failing to attend the March 20th town meeting and being unable to provide an acceptable excuse. Up to this time the local corn mill had been able to supply the needs of the Plantation but with the population growth it was no longer able to do so. Cooper was one of a committee appointed February 6, 1665/6 to make the necessary improvements or recommendations for constructing a new one. In the meantime he served on a committee to draw up plans of the lands of the Plantation to be presented to the General Court for ratification, on another committee to appraise the livestock of the Plantation and on a third to adjudicate the requests of certain settlers to change their lots around to be more convenient for use. At the town meeting of February 4, 1667, Cooper, with Elizur Holyoke, was chosen to audit the accounts of the selectmen for the previous year. This was a chore he continued to discharge for many years. In 1666 he was one of a committee to consider the poor estate of some of the settlers in the Plantation, and in need of relief, reporting to the town with recommendations as to what should be done. In 1667 the minister reported that the minister's residence needed to be enlarged, but that he did not have sufficient funds for the purpose. Cooper served on the committee to make the necessary arrangements and have the work done. The following year £20 was raised to pay the Indians for the Plantation land and of this Cooper's share was eleven shillings. Later some of the settlers failed to pay their allotted shares of this expense. The committee was empowered to recover the overdue payments. At the town meeting of August 16, 1672 Cooper was appointed to join the selectmen in setting the tax rate. In 1674 a commission, of which he was a member, was appointed to examine the highways on the west side of the river, damaged by floods, and make recommendations for repairs or relocation as appeared necessary. By this time the population of the Plantation had increased to a point where the original meeting house was no longer adequate. The town decided to build a new one and Cooper was added to the original group which had been chosen to supervise the work on the new building. Thomas, like all adult men, served in the town's militia. He was chosen ensign of Springfield train band on October 23, 1657 and lieutenant of train band on September 24, 1667. In the midst of all of this activity he was literally unable to keep all of his fences mended, high water due to flooding of the river, saved him from being fined. Thomas held a variety of occupations besides that of carpenter. On January 10, 1658/9, there is "liberty granted to Tho[mas] Cooper to keep a ferry at the lower wharf & to land people below the mouth of Agawam River, & none are to carry over any persons, horses, or cattle over the Great River to take any pay except they allow & pay it to the said Tho[mas] CooperÉAnd the privilege of this ferry is granted to him for 21 years from this year 1658." Both Thomas and his wife were medical practitioners. Thomas in particular had considerable skill as a bone setter, being often called upon throughout the County of Hampshire, as there was no regular physician or surgeon available. On May 28, 1655, John Pynchon, writing to John Winthrop, Jr. about his wife's health, referred to "Goodwife Cooper who hath formerly tended my wife in her weakness," and, on March 7, 1659/60, Pynchon thanked Winthrop for "those prayers of cordial powder you sent my wife by Ensign Cooper." On March 30, 1675, "Lt. Cooper sending his desires to this Court that seeing he is upon necessity put to go so often to & fro for setting of broke bones & that frequently he hath little or nothing for his labors & for the good done through God's blessing by his means, that the Court would order him he shall be satisfied for such his labors &c. The Court refer consideration thereof to the next Court at Springfield, that he may be consulted & that done which is convenient, for this Court doth judge it altogether reasonable that he should have suitable recompense for such works." (Nothing was ever done in this matter, as Lt. Thomas Cooper was dead six months later.) Thomas was also an active businessman and fur trader in association with both William and John Pynchon, who supplied with large quantities of beaver pelts and other goods which he exchanged with the Indians. In May 1652, Pynchon made this entry in his books: "Sold him the Commoditys here following, to be pd in Bever at current prices or in good wampum Sometime wthin ye yeare." In this purchase was 107 yards of Red Shag Cotton at 3s. pr. yd., £16 1s.; "Blew" trading cloth, 206 yards, £90 18s. 9d. In the credits were 206 lbs. of beaver at 9s., £92 14s.; 399 1/2 lbs. of beaver at 10s., £199, 15s. Under date of February 14, 1658, is this entry: "I Thomas Cooper Doe hereby acknowledge to have Recd of Mr. John Pynchon a pscell of English goods as they cost in England to ye Sum of Seventeene pounds, wch sum of Seventeene pounds sterling I ingage to pay in England by michalstide next, to whom Mr. John Pynchon shall appoint me in London in England, I ingage to make such allowance as is fit & meete & hereto set my hand this 14th Febr 1658. Thomas Cooper." Below in Pynchon's hand, as was the above agreement, is this: "Acots concerning this £17 were examined & set to rights by Brother Holyoke & Deacon [Samuel] Chapin, & all differences & offences have Issued & satisfied, I abated 20s. & ye rest is pd me this 17 of January, 1660." The balance in the accounts against Cooper in 1653 was £262, in 1655, £391, in 1658, £682, but sale of beaver and work performed at different times reduced them to a much smaller amount at some period in the year. There does not appear to have been any stated time with Pynchon for settlement with any of his customers, the amount of the account appears to have determined the time of striking a balance to which the debtor set his hand. It is interesting that Cooper frequently had accounts with Pynchon that were, in those times, very large sums. There seem to have been no serious disagreements, save for one incident involving a trifling amount. This time Cooper resorted to legal action in a dispute over a few shillings. He lost the suit but the court scaled down the amount he was obliged to pay. Thomas Cooper was not untouched by the witchcraft trials and gave a deposition in the trial of Hugh Parsons in 1651. The Springfield settlers had lived in peace with their Indian neighbors, Agawams and Pocumtucks, for nearly forty years, with daily and friendly dealings. It was supposed that they had not entered into a conspiracy with Philip (King Philip's War). The Indians professed steadfast friendship for the settlers and had even given hostages who had been sent to Hartford, CT for greater security. The residents of Springfield felt secure in their daily lives. There was an Indian, Toto, living with the family of a Mr. Walcott in Windsor, CT, twenty miles away. On the evening of October 4, 1675 Toto seemed very disturbed and distraught. Upon questioning, he revealed that a plot had been under way for the destruction of Springfield. Aroused after midnight, the settlers took refuge in three fortified houses. Among the group was Thomas Cooper, Lieut. of the militia company, who a short time before had led a party of soldiers from Springfield to the relief of the besieged Brookfield. These were the older men of the town. The younger men under the leadership of Major Pynchon were at Hadley at this time. By the next day nothing out of the ordinary had occurred and many thought that this had been a false alarm. One of those questioning the accuracy of the alarm was Thomas Cooper. He determined to find out the true state of affairs by a personal visit to the Indian fort. For many years he had dealt with the Agawams and Pocumtucks and knew many of them by name. He felt that no harm could come to him from their hands. Taking with him Thomas Miller, the two rode to the fort. They had gone about a quarter of a mile beyond the last house to the south of the settlement when they were fired upon by unseen foes. Miller was killed instantly. Thomas was fatally wounded, but being an energetic and resolute man, he managed to remount his horse and ride at full gallop back to the nearest house. Before reaching it, he was shot again by the Pocumtucks in hot pursuit. He died upon reaching the house. The Pocumtucks then burst upon the settlement with the greatest fury, burning houses and barns and destroying the livestock. The killing of Thomas Cooper by the Indians when they burned Springfield must have caused a great shock to the community and his tragic death brought a realizing sense of the defenseless condition of every settlement exposed to a treacherous foe. That Thomas should have had perfect confidence in his ability to dissuade the Indians from their hostile action is not strange. He had been among them for many years and was on familiar terms with many of them for miles around within the vicinity of Springfield. At this time Thomas was a man just under sixty years of age, and a resident of the town for more than thirty years. In the personal journal of John Pynchon is the entry: "Lieut Thomas Cooper died 5 October 1675." These events may be seen in perspective from the account which John Pynchon gave to Governor Leverett: To Governor John Leverett, M.A, Springfield, 8 October 1675 Honored Sir: I desired Mr Russell to give you an account of the sore stroke upon poor distressed Springfield, which I hope will excuse my late doing of it. On the 4th of October our soldiers which were at Springfield I had called off, leaving none to secure the town because the Commissioners order was so strict. That night post was sent to us that 500 Indians were about Springfield intending to destroy it, so that the 5th of October with about 200 of our soldiers I marched down to Springfield where we found all in flames: about 30 dwelling houses burnt down and 24 to 25 barns, my corn mill, sawmill, and other buildings. Generally men's hay and corn is burnt and many men whose houses stand had their goods burnt in other houses which they had carried them to. Lieutenant Cooper and two more slain and four persons wounded, two of which are doubtful of their recovery. The Lord hath made us drink deep the cup of sorrow; I desire we may consider the operation of his hand, and what he speak, yet that the town did not utterly perish is cause of great thankfulness. As soon as our forces appeared the Indians all drew off, so that we saw none of them. Sent out scouts that night and the next day, but discovered none, neither can we satisfy ourselves which way they are gone, their tracks being many ways, we think, are gone down the river; our last discovery was of a considerable track upwards. Our endeavors here are to secure the houses and corn that is left, for this sad providence hath obstructed our going out with the army and what can be done I am at great loss. Our people are under great discouragement, talk of leaving the place; we need your orders and direction about it. If it be deserted how woefully do we yield to encourage our insolent enemy and how doth it make way for the giving up of all the towns above it. If it be held, it must be by strength, and many soldiers, and how to have provisions, I mean bread for want of a mill, is difficult; the soldiers here already complain on that account although we have flesh enough; and this very strait. I mean no mill will drive many of our inhabitants away especially those that have no corn, and many of them no houses which fills and throngs up every room of those that have together with our soldiers no (which yet we can not be without) increasing in number. So that indeed it is uncomfortable living her, and for my own particular it were far better for me to go away because here I have not anything left. I mean no corn, neither Indian or English, and no means to keep one beast here, nor can I have relief in this town because so many are destitute. But I resolve to attend to what God calls me to, and to stick it as long as I can, and though I have such great loss of my comforts, yet to do what I can for defending this place. I hope god will make up in himself what is wanting in the creature to me and to us all. This day a post is sent up from Hartford to call off Major Treat with a part of his soldiers, from intelligence they have of a party of Indians lying against Wethersfield on the east side of the river. So that matters here do linger exceedingly, which makes me wonder what the Lord intends with his people, strange providences diverting us in all our hopeful designs and the Lord giving opportunity to the enemy to do us mischief and then hiding them and answering all our prayers by terrible things in righteousness. Sir, I am no capable of holding any command, being more and more unfit and almost confounded in my understanding. The Lord direct you to pitch on a meeter person than ever I was; according to liberty from the Council I shall devolve upon Captain Appleton unless Major Treat return again, until you shall give your orders as shall meet to yourselves. To speak my thoughts, all these towns ought to be garrisoned, as I have formerly hinted, and had I been left to myself I should think have done that which possibly might have prevented this damage. But the express order to do as I did was by the wise dispensing hand of God who knew it best for us, and therein we must acquiesce and truly go out after the Indians in the swamps and thickets is to hazard all our men unless we knew where they keep, which is altogether unknown to us, and God hides from us for ends best known to himself. I have many times thought that the winter were that time to fall on them, but there are such difficulty that I shall leave it, yet suggest it to consideration. I will not trouble you at present, but earnestly crave your prayers for the Lord's undertaking for us and sanctifying all his stroke to us. I remain, Your unworthy servant, John Pynchon. We are at great hazard if we do not stir out of our wood to be shot down by skulking Indians.

The head quarters or station of Captain Cocke's command was at Eaton's Station on or near the Holston River but the soldiers were employed almost constantly in ranging through the woods as spies for the protection of the settlements and in July or August 1778 her husband was in a battle with a party of Indians in the woods below the said station whom they repulsed - her said husband served out his engagement of six months under Captain Cocke - and having become expert as a woodsman and the settlements being much annoyed by the inroads of the Indians - a new station was built on Holston River below Eaton's called Island Fort to which place all the families in the surrounding settlements moved for protection - and a company of spies were enlisted to range the wilderness and protect the Fort and Inhabitants - This arrangement was made by authority of the Government upon the application of the principle inhabitants say Colonels Shelby - Campbell and Sevier - It was in this company of Indian spies that your declarant's husband entered the second time in the spring of the year 1779 as a volunteer Indian spy - under Captain James Shelby his Lieutenant's name was George Hart and the whole establishment was principally under the direction of Colonel Isaac Shelby and Major Anthony Bledsoe - her husband's enlistment was at first for the time of three months but having served out that period and the Indians still continuing troublesome and your declarant's husband having become an expert spy - he was induced to continue in the service under the same officers (the old spies generally renewing their engagements) in this way he continued in the same service renewing his engagement about every three months for a period of about two years commencing in the spring of 1779 and ending sometime in the year 1781 and the fall of the latter year and expedition was made against the Cherokee Indians from the settlements on Holston under Colonel Sevier and your declarant's husband served in this expedition as a private soldier under Captain Ning Hoskins [probably Capt. Ninian Hoskins] and there was a Captain Looney in the same Corps. They visited the Indian towns south of the French Broad River - Burnt several of them - defeated the Indians - destroyed their corn and other property and returned - near the close of the year 1781 and with this last expedition close to the military services of your declarant's husband he having served in all about three years - Your declarant first became acquainted with her said husband whilst he was an Indian spy at the Island Fort on Holston River. She thinks it was then Montgomery County Virginia where he entered in each instance - She further declares that she was married to the said James Ward according to the best of her knowledge and belief in the same County and State above named on the 11th of August 1779. She will however not be positive as to day or month - She is positive that it was whilst he was in the service as an Indian spy and long before he made the expedition under Colonel Sevier against the Cherokees, and consequently before the end of his last period of service - and she further declares that she lived with her said husband James Ward as his wife from the period of the marriage in 1779 down to the 17th day of November 1830 upon which latter day he the said James Ward departed this life in the County of Pope and State of Illinois and that she has remained a widow ever since that period as will more fully appear by reference to the proof hereto annexed. She will further state that neither herself nor husband could read or write & that they kept no family record & she consequently has none nor does she think that there is any record of her marriage as it was a new country & scarcely any law in vogue on the frontiers but she states that she was married to James Ward by the Reverend Philip Milky a Baptist preacher. She has no documentary evidence. S/ Elizabeth Ward, X her mark Sworn to and subscribed on the day and year above written before the subscriber a Justice of the peace for the County and State aforesaid and I do certify that the above named Elizabeth Ward appears to me to be a very old person and that she is entitled to credit on her oath & that from age and bodily infirmity she is unable to attend court to make her declaration. S/ James Ashley, JP State of KentuckyCalloway County: SS On this 13th day of January in the year 1841 personally appeared before the undersigned a Justice of the peace for the County and State aforesaid Jesse Henson1 a resident of said County and State aged about eighty-two years who being first duly sworn according to law doth on his oath make the following statement in relation to the military services of James Ward during the War of the revolution and of his the said James Ward's marriage with the same Elizabeth Ward who made her declaration before James Ashley Esquire of McCracken County Kentucky on the 5th day of January 1841 in order to obtain the benefit of the provision made by the act of Congress passed July 4th 1832 - This affiant states that the said Elizabeth Ward is his Sister and that she is about two years older than himself - her declaration above referred to was then read over to him in his hearing, and he states that the facts stated in the said declaration to the best of his recollection and belief are true - This affiant states that he is an unlettered man and consequently has no records or written memoranda that would enable him to be strictly accurate in relation to days and dates - and length of terms of service - names of officers etc. etc. - But he has no hesitation in saying that the said James Ward did serve at least six months as an Indian spy in the year 1778 and he thinks that this service was as a private under Captain Cocke although part of the service may have been under other officers - as to the locality or place where the services were performed the affiant states that it was chiefly in the woods having their station or headquarters at Amos Eaton's station on Holston River in Virginia and at Rye Cove another station in the same region of country - he knows that the spies had a skirmish with the Indians in the woods near the stations in July or August 1778 and that the said James Ward was in said skirmish - This affiant was himself there and participated in said skirmish in which they defeated the Indians - This affiant makes the following statement in relation to the said James Ward's service as an Indian spy at the Island Fort on Holston River which was situated he thinks in the State of Virginia Montgomery County - it is his best belief & recollection that the said James Ward commenced his service there as a private Indian spy in the spring of the year 1779 under Captain James Shelby and Lieutenant George Hart - they were the principal officers who had command of the active corps of spies or Rangers - nevertheless there were other officers of the same rank who occasionally done duty - and there were others of a higher rank who seemed to have the chief direction but who scarcely ever went into the woods - amongst these were the Colonels Campbell - Shelby & Sevier and Major Bledsoe - The said Ward continued in this service as an Indian spy at the above named Fort chiefly under Captain Shelby from the time he entered the spring of the year 1779 until sometime in the year 1781 say about September - This affiant does not think he said Ward served the whole year round in each instance for he recollects that in the winter season the Indians generally ceased their incursions and then the spies were discharged until next spring - and in this way the said James Ward he thinks served about eight months in each year during the year 1779, 1780 and 1781 at the Island Fort on Holston and in the fall of the latter year the said James Ward entered Captain Ning Hoskins' company as a private and with him joined Colonel Sevier's Corps of volunteers and with him made an expedition South of the French Broad River on to the Cherokee Nation - This affiant served in the same Corps with the said James Ward but under a different Captain - the said James Ward served three months under this engagement - This affiant will also state that he occasionally served with said James Ward as a spy at the Island Fort above mentioned under Captain Shelby but not all the time -

Thomas was age 15-20 in 1830, and had 7 females in the household, ranging in age from 0-5 to 30-40. There were no other males in the household, so Thomas's age was probably on the high side of that range. Thomas is not mentioned in any later records, including the 1837 tax list that mentions Andrew and Michael, and so Thomas is assumed to have died before then. It is unclear whether he was married in 1830, but it is possible that one of the women in the household age 20-30 was his wife, and that the girl age 0-5 was a young daughter. However, no candidate descendants have been identified. Sources 1830 US census, Perry Co., TN [img 17] Thos Derberry 0001 103012 [Same page as Andrew and M. C. Derberry. The identities of the women in this household are currently unknown. However, two of the three females age 10-15 here may correspond to two girls under 10 in Andrew's household in 1820. The two older women here have no correspondence with the 1820 entry for Andrew.] The woman J. J. Derryberry, born about 1810, and found in the 1860 census in Decaturville, could have been a widow of Thomas, but there is no evidence one way or the other, since marital status was not marked on the censuses at that time. She could also have been one of his sisters. 1860 US census, Dist. 4, Decatur Co., TN (P.O. Decaturville) J. J. Dereberry [fem], age 50, [occ. illegible], $100/400, b.

Cuthbert Harrison I, with his son, Burr II, settled in then Stafford County, Virginia, on the northern side of the Chappawamsic Creek near Dumfries and there today lies the old estate called "Cahappawamsic," with its quaint old grave yard, where once lived and now rest, so far as known, the first Harrisons of our line who came to America. Old deeds in Prince William and Stafford Counties show that in the latter part of the seventeenth century large tracts of land on the Chappawamsic Creek were granted to Burr Harrison, II. The site of this estate is easily accessible from Washington. A ride of about an hour over the Southern Railroad brings one to Quantico and from Quantico to Chappawamsic Creek is only about one mile. Crossing the creek you turn inland and a ride of a few miles will bring you to a quaint old grave yard where now rest the earthly remains of the first Harrisons of Virginia."

Have been unsuccessful thus far. However, in search I extracted info from a Barclay family history at the Library of Congress(I think) on the well documented family of William BARCLAY(1669-1732) born in Scotland or NIreland, uncertain when arrived in PA(land records lists a William Barclay in 1725), lived/died Lancaster Co PA. He had at least three sons: John, Hugh and William (unfortunately not my William) This John Barclay(1699-1765)unknown where born married Martha McConnell. Land records show he farmed on West Branch of Octorara Creek, Colerain Twp, Lancaster Co PA in 1736. He had no children but will mentions his wife's relatives John, Daniel and Alexander McConnell, a cousin Mary Allison and several nephews who were sons of brothers Hugh and William. Incidently, his brother Hugh( -1764)served in the French and Indian War and Hugh's son Hugh Jr(1729-1806)married to Mary Culbertson and Martha Smith moved to Rockbridge Co VA after Revoltionary War. So many Barclays in colonial PA but perhaps this is the John you mention. Others in the Barclay discussions much more familiar with this family than I. HOWEVER....I continue seeking leads to my lost William!! Regards.

The Collie Family of Pittsylvania Co, VA, their Scottish origins, relatives & descendants
by Betty Cox Collier

The Collie Family p. 656

Dennis Cornwell (d. pre 1735), father of Charles Cornwell (d. 1781)

Dennis Cornwell, father of Charles Cornwell, is thought to be the Dennis Cornwell
who was transported to Virginia (apparently from England) sometime around 1692 by Richard
Taylor. Subsequently, on April 20, 1694, Taylor was granted 293 acres in Nansemond
County, VA, for importing Dennis Cornwell and five other persons as settlers for the Virginia
colony.3 If typical, the date of the grant would have been about two years after the
event. Over several decades, this policy was responsible for bringing in thousands of ablebodied
men and women, who helped develop Virginia and whose descendants number in
the millions today.
From information in a Westmoreland County, VA, deed, dated 1698, Dennis Cornwell's
wife appears to have been Ann Dunkin, daughter of a Peter Dunkin, Sr. According to other ********
researchers, Peter Dunkin, Sr. was born in 1633 and died about 1676 when his will apparently
was proved.4
Dennis Cornwell is mentioned in at least twelve court records dating between 1693 and
1704 in Westmoreland County, VA, and then in three court records (all in 1711) occurring in
Stafford County, VA, where he apparently moved sometime by 1711.5 Dennis had died by
May 20,1735, when a Prince William County, VA, deed reported the sale of 100 acres he had
owned in his lifetime from a 200-acre tract he had purchased in 1699. The sale was to John
Tayloe of "Lunnenbury Parish" in Richmond County, VA, and was done by his sons, Charles
and Peter Cornwell, who were identified as being of Hambleton Parish in Prince William
County, VA.

John Say

Birth: 1415
Podington
Bedfordshire, England
Death: Apr. 12, 1478
Broxbourne
Hertfordshire, England

Sir John Say, Kt. (died 12 April 1478) was an English courtier, MP and Speaker of the House of Commons.

He was the son of John Say, born before 1445, and his wife Maud. His brother, William Say, became Dean of St Pauls. Sir John owned land at Baas, Broxbourne, Little Berkhamsted and Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, and Lawford, Essex

Sir John Say trained as a lawyer and became a King's Sergeant, Coroner of the Marshalsea, Yeoman of the Chamber and Crown, Keeper of Westminster Palace, Squire of the Body and Privy Councilor.

In 1447 he entered Parliament as MP for Cambridge and was then in 1449 elected Knight of the Shire for Cambridgeshire, when he was also elected Speaker of the House of Commons. In June 1449 he was made Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and in 1449 was appointed sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk. By 1450, he was out of favor and in 1451 the Commons demanded his banishment from the court. However, he was pardoned in 1452.

From 1453 to 1478 he represented Hertfordshire in several Parliaments and was chosen to serve as speaker from 1463 to 1465 and again 1467 to 1468. In 1455 (until 1478 in three terms under Henry Bourchier, 1st Viscount Bourchier, 1st Earl of Essex) he held the post of under-Treasurer of the Exchequer and from 1476 that of Keeper of the Great Wardrobe.

He was made Knight of the Bath in 1465.

He died on 12 April 1478.

He married before 1449, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Laurence or Lawrence Cheney (or Cheyne) (c. 1396 - 1461), High Sheriff of Cambridgeshire, and Elizabeth Cokayn or Cokayne, and the widow of Sir Frederick Tilney of Ashwellthorpe. She died on 2 September 1473, aged 51, predeceasing her husband by five years. Say remarried Agnes, daughter of John Danvers of Cokethorpe and widow of Sir John Fray and of John, Lord Wenlock.

Sir John and Lady Elizabeth Say are buried together at Broxbourne, Hertfordshire. They were survived by seven of their eight children (three sons and four daughters). Sir John Say was an ancestor of Jane Seymour, third wife of King Henry VIII. He was succeeded by his son William, who also became an MP and Sheriff for Hertfordshire.

Name: John J. DERRYBERRY
Surname: Derryberry
Given Name: John J.
Sex: M
Birth: ABT 1710 1
Death: ABT 1789 in Morganton, Burke Co., North Carolina
_UID: 5A5D9227ED59D511A04F501B59C10000101B
Note:
[Derryber.ged]
He is not listed as Sr. in records found, but is shown as Sr. here to
diffrentiate him from the younger John that was in Burke Co. at that time.
The use of Jr., at that time, simply meant the younger of two people with
like names. John, Jr. is not proven, but assumed, to be John, Sr's son.
Hisparents are not proven. Here are the clues. Until such time as
conclusive proof is found, then his parents are subjective. The known
clues
are presented here for those who care to decide for themslves who they
believe the progenator to be.
The J. could stand for Jacob and the name tranlated from Hans Jacob
Durrenberger or Johann Jacob Durrenberger. According to Daniel Debus, an
Alsatian who may prove related, who lives in France, says that in
Alsatian pronunciation Durrenberger (with
the umlatted u) would sound like Derryberry orDerreberri. The
Durenbergers of Mertzweiller or Griesbach, Alsace are welldocumented.
Some Derryberry researcher, believes that John's father's last name
was Dewsbury, changed to Derryberry. The name Dewsbury is found in
Essex, Elizabeth City, Isle of Wight and in Scurry, Sussex, Middlesex,
York and and Brunswick, England. The
Dewsberry in Essex Co., VA is shown only one time found as something like
Derryberry. It could well be a mis-spelling by an illiterate clerk since
it is found only one time. Without better proof, subjection only, I
doubt any connection between those
and my Derryberrys.
A list of imagrants lists the emigration of Stefan, Jan/Hans Michael
and Jon/Johann Jacob Dürrenberger who arrived on the Robert and Oliver
(ship) 11 Sep 1737-38,out of Rotterdam with German Palatines. The
surnames as shown variously as Durabary,
Durenberger, Tiereberger and Derryberry. George's will listed a son
caller John Tiereberger. He is also referred to as John Durenberger.
There are currently Terryberrys in the Sussex Co., NJ area. They may, or
may not, be related. However, it
appears that the will filed in Sussex Co., NJ in 1767 tends to indicate a
strong probability.
No proof has been found that widow Derryberry in Burke Co, NC in late
1700s was John's widow or that she wasAnna; however there is strong
evidence to her name being Anna. Various records show her as Ann. It is
therorized that John was not a son
of George Derryberry, but was a son of Joseph Dürrenberger and Anna
Margaretha Bastain fromAlsace area that was then Germany but now in
France.
Three brothers arrivedin Philadelphia, PA from Rotterdam on the *********
Robert and Oliver on 11 Sep 1738,Jacob b 1717, Stephen b. 1711 and
Michael b. 1716, sons of Hans Peter and EvaCatherine Dürrenberger,
according to D. A. Kastens.. Mr Kastens has
researched extensivly in the German Palatine, and some in Straubourg and
published several books on Palatine church records, Their last names have
been recordedas Dürrenberger, Durnberger, Dureberry, Terryberry and
possibly others varaiations. 'One
Hundred and Eighteenth Anniversary of the Settlement of New Jersey by the
Germns and the Sesqui-centennial of German Valley 1713 - 1893', a small
book found in the Morristown, NJ Library, states that the Robert and
Oliver arrived Philadelphia 11 Sep
1738, Walter Goodman, Commander, last from Dover with 320 passengers,
that among the passengers were Stephan Durabercher or Steven 'Stoffe'
Terriberry and Hans Mich. Torenberger. It does not mentionJacob,
leading me to believe he settled elsewhere,
possibly Lehigh, PA, where Jacob and Anna Bastain were supposedly
married.in the Jordan Lutheran Church. Descendants have been found in
northwest NJ using the name Derraberry upinto the mid 1800s. Found on
the Terryberry web site that Hans Peter
Dürrenberger (Terryberry) married Eva Catherine ______ 25 Sep 1708 at
Mertzweiler,Alsace, Germany, except the German spelling is Elsass.

John died about 1789, Morganton, Burke Co., NC. He is not listed as Sr. in records found, but is shown as Sr. here to differentiate him from the younger John that was in Burke Co. at that time. The use of Jr., at that time, simply meant the younger of two people with like names. John, Jr. is not proven, but assumed, to be John, Sr's son. His parents are not proven. Here are the clues.

Some Derryberry researchers believe that John's father's last name was Dewsbury, changed to Derryberry. The name Dewsbury is found in Essex, Elizabeth City, Isle of Wight and in Scurry, Sussex, Middlesex, York and Brunswick, England. The Dewsberry in Essex Co., VA is shown only one time found as something like Derryberry. It could well be a mis-spelling by an illiterate clerk since it is found only one time. Without better proof, subjection only, I doubt any connection between those and my Derryberrys.
It is noted that there were people referred to as Derraberry in both Morris co., NJ and Burke Co., NC in the late 1700s. Those in Burke Co. got referred to by other variations, such as Derriberry and Derreberry, the latter of which is still used by many NC family members. This stronger clues to me of the origin of the name, but not proof until better information is discovered.
No proof has been found that widow Derryberry in Burke Co, NC in late1700s was John's widow or that she was Anna; however there is strong evidence to her name being Anna. Various records show her as Ann. It is theorized that John was a son of Joseph Dürrenberger and Anna Margaretha Bastain from Alsace area that was then Germany but now in France.
Our John was in Burke Co., NC before 1778. He may have lived in Essex and Surrey Counties, VA before going to Burke Co. He is possibly the John Derryberry who had land in Cape May, NJ, found listed in a deed there of land joining that owned by John Derryberry.
This John owned land in Burke Co., VA in 1779, according to deed records. The Journal of Burke Co., NC Genealogy, Vol. 4, p. 50, item 388, lists him receiving 100 acres on both sides of Kennedy's Fork of the Silver Creek joining land owned by Michael Derryberry, recorded 28 Oct 1782.
Ron Jones in his book on the Derreberry branch refers to Ann as "Widow Derreberry".
There was a John Derreberry in the 7th Regt., Burke Militia re: page 446 of Revised Edition of The History of NC 1777-1920, probably his son John.
Some give an eighth child, Hannah, but Guy Derryberry believes this is John Jr's. widow.
There is controversy and doubt that all the children attributed to this couple were actually their children. Some may actually belong to other Derryberry families of the area, such as his brothers, or their children.
Various lines of the family voice the belief that there is American Indian heritage in the family. The strongest seems to come from the Adam, Jacob and Daniel lines. No proof has come out of the source of these beliefs that have been passed down through the generations. However, with the sketchiness of the NC 18th century records, the unproven but strongly indicated family groups and the relating that the ones from that generation or series of generations spoke very poor English, indicates that if there is genuine American Indian heritage it may well have come through John's wife Anna, according to Guy Fay Derryberry. There were many marriages between frontiersmen and Cherokee women. They were seldom recorded as Indian women.
Another indication is in the fact that Derryberrys of that era were described as having dark complexions, dark brown to black hair and about 5 feet 10 inches tall, a total absence of light complexions, blonde or red hair. This tends to point to one of two heritage sources: American Indian or Black Dutch origin. Black Dutch

While this will is a reality, it is only speculation that this George is the progenitor of this line.
Note:
"to have George go to VA and his son back to NJ, before going to NC does not fit the normal migration pattern. Further, only one time has been found where reference to him or his (possibly adopted) son used Derryberry, and in
that case, the name being written in longhand and then not well formed letters, leaves it questionable.
I refer to "Essex Co. Deeds and Wills", #13, page 430 - 431; "Index of Marriages of Old Rappahannock & Essex Co., VA", Book 2, page 52. I have looked at the originals referred to in those books and the spellings to me are far from Derryberry."

This tends to point to one of two heritage sources: American Indian or Black Dutch origin. Black Dutch refers to a human strain produced by the invading Roman Army intermarrying with Germanic or mid-European women. The resultant children had mixed Roman and Germanic features. These are areas that future family researchers may find revealing with the advent of more information available that was in the past.

John probably married Anna before coming to NC. If he is the Hans Jacob who arrived in 1738, then he married her in Alsace and she was Anna Margareta Bastain, instead of Anna Buck as has been surmised.

In "Tenacity and Adversity...", by Edward D. Roundtree, found in the VA State Library, it tells about the great road in the early 1700s. "There was one road 435 miles long leading from PA into NC. This great road lead out of Philadelphia in a westerly direction by" Lancaster and York to Winchester, VA, through Shenandoah Valley to Staunton and Roanoke, where it turned southeast to cross the Blue Ridge Mountains (probably following the Staunton River through the mountains), then divided with a branch leading to Winston-Salem, NC. There it connected with the "Trading Path" just north of the Yadkin River at Trading Ford (east of Salisbury a few miles) continuing to Salisbury, then southwest by Concord to Carlotte and on to Columbia, SC. The Trading Trail was not wide enough for a wagon, but was used by pack animals to move trade goods. The Derryberrys probably came that way.

Anna's maiden name is believed by some to be Buck, since a son carries Buck as a middle name. This was a custom of the time, on up to early 20th century, in which case, her father may have been Andrew Buck. It is possible that she was Anna Margaretha Bastain, wife of Jacob Durrenberger, brother to Hans Michael/Michel of NJ. Teresa Jones has strong clues that Jacob Durrenberger was our progenitor. She hopes to find records that will prove or disprove her theory in her lifetime.

Dee Ann Shipp Buck, a Derryberry researcher, believes that John's father's last name was Dewsbury, changed to Derryberry. The name Dewsbury is found in Essex, Elizabeth City, Isle of Wight and in Scurry, Sussex, Middlesex, York and Brunswick, England. Our John was in Burke Co., NC before 1778. He may have lived inEssex and Surrey Counties, VA before going to Burke Co. It appears to me thatour

I challenge you, or anyone who claims this ancestry for John Derryberry, to prove it. The only evidence I have ever seen is very questionable. I would welcome proof of this claim.

Excerpt from Stovall-John-Sr-notes in Misc-Docs-Pics folder:

Darcus (---) Stovall, widow of John2, was alive as late as 2 February 1787 when she, with her son Drury and Ann, Drury's wife, sold for £350 to John Young the 300 acres that remained of her late husband's lands, on which she then lived, excepting 1/16 acre "at the grave" (evidently the grave of her husband).[198] since she was not mentioned by name in the will, this deed is very important in that it establishes that John Stovall had but one wife who was the mother of all his children. For only five of these children are there better than rough approximations for dates of birth. Traditional order is altered in some cases to allow for known marriages of children or births of some grandchilden. John Stovall's gifts of land were not at all necessarily made in birth order.

That Thomas Cooper was apprenticed to Francis Stiles is evidenced by an order of the Court at Hartford, CT March 28, 1637: "ord that Mr Francis Stiles shall teach Geo[rge] Chapple, Tho[mas] Coop[e]r & Tho[mas] Barber his servants in the trade of a carpenter according to his promise for their service of their term behind 4 days in a week only to saw and slit their own work that they are to frame themselves with their own hands together with himself or some other master workman, the time to begin for the performance of this order 14 days hence without fail."

His will on January 18, 1670 (proved March 13, 1670). He mentioned "Should all my children die under age, and without issue, then I giveÉRich Neck, on St. Clement's manor, to the eldest son of my dear sister Mrs. Elizabeth Russell of London; my plantation called Lapworth to my nephew Timothy Cooper, and Norwood, Lapworth Lodge, and Clear Doubt to my nephew Thomas Cooper, both of Springfield in New England." Capt. Slye mentioned three nephews, one (unnamed) son of his sister Elizabeth Russell of London, and the Cooper brothers of Springfield.

On January 27, 1642 the inhabitants of Springfield sold "to the said Thomas Cooper the dwelling house and fouer acres of meddow, more or less, appertayning to the house and fouer acres and about one halfe of the wet marish, before his house, and one acre and one halfe of the corner meddow fenced, and seven acres just over against it on the other side of the river and in future dividents according to a single lott of fouer acre to a house lot." The next year, 1643, he was allotted a house lot of five acres.

On April 6, 1643 Thomas Cooper was granted a five-acre house lot, two acres of meadow and one acre of meadow "on the other side of the Great River" at Springfield. His homelot was the one granted to John Cable, who sold it to the town on his departure for Fairfield, CT. Thomas purchased it of the town for £25. It was 14 rods wide and extended from the river eastward across the wet meadow and thence upon the highland, eighty rods beyond. It was situated next north of William Pynchon's homelot, and was where the railroad now crosses Main Street.

On January 22, 1651/2, "Ther is granted to Tho Cooper, upon Mill River below Rich Sikes his meddow, a psel about an acre and one halfe of meddow, in 2 or 3 lotts, which is dew him in lew of 1 acre & one halfe he falls short on ye other side of ye river. This he accepts though it hold out not one acre and one halfe."

In May 1654, Thomas sold from his homelot purchase the "Hassky" meadow containing 2 acres lying between the street and the upland to the east, for 30 shillings to John Pynchon.

On January 2, 1655/6, Thomas was granted "four acres next above Robert AshlyÉ& this upon condition he stay 5 years in town." On December 10, 1658, he was granted the "2d portion of land on this side of Woronoco River." On January 27, 1659/60, he was granted "a parcel of swamp land lying by Agawam River side."

With three other men, Thomas was granted "all the meadow that lies upon the north branch of the next brook that runs into the Great River below Agawam River" on February 12, 1660/1. The transaction was particularly interesting in that Thomas and three other men were granted land to be shared equally among themselves and decided among themselves where each man's land should lie.

On March 13, 1660/1, he was granted "twenty acres of upland & swamp over Agawam River...also...a little piece of meadow land on the west side of the swamp." Thomas was granted "eight or ten acres of land upon the hill northwesterly from his cellar over Agawam River" on June 1664. And on October 12, 1670, he was granted "16 acres of lowland on the most southerly branch of the 3 mile brook."

On November 8, 1662 "Ensign Thomas Cowper of Springfield" deeded to "his brother [in-law?] Henry Glover of New Haven...all his right, title & interest...which the said Ensign Cowper hath in & unto one-quarter part or one-fourth part of all those lands which were granted to him the said Ensign Cowper which lands lie at or by the place called Woronoco on the west side of the River Connecticutt."

In 1644 the government of Springfield was changed to place it in the charge of a group of selectmen. Of the first such group Thomas Cooper was a member. The record of the town meeting of July 26 of that year reads: "It is agreed this day by General Courte that Henry Smith, Tho cooper, Daniel Chapin, Richard Sikes and Henry Burt shall have power to order anything they shall judge for ye good of ye town and to order in all prudential affairs they shall have power for a year space to prevent damage of ye town & they five or any three of them shall also be given power & virtue also to hear complaints, to arbitrate controversies, to lay out High ways, to make bridges, to repair High waies specially to order ye making of ye way over muxie meddow, to see to the scouring of ditches and to the killing of wolves and to training up of the children to some good calling or any other thing they shall judge to be ye profit of ye town." During the next thirty years Cooper would be chosen to be a selectman eighteen times. In some years there was no election and the incumbents would be held over for another term in office. The dates on which he was elected selectman were:

September 26, 1644

1645 was a busy year for Thomas since earlier he had agreed to build the meeting-house. On February 28, 1644/5 "a bargain made by the inhabitants of Springfield with Thomas Cooper for the building of a meeting-houseÉto be finished by the 30th September 1646, in consideration of which work the plantation do covenant to pay him four score pounds." This was the first meeting-house in Springfield. It was to be forty feet long and twenty-five feet in width, with two large windows on each side and one on each end. There were to be two turrets, one for a bell and the other to serve as a watch tower. The building was completed by the end of September and at a contract price of £80. After being under construction for less than a month the town agreed that Thomas had satisfactorily completed his contract. He was to receive payment in "wheate, pork, wampum, debts and labor." Thomas was a member of a committee to assign the seats in the meeting-house. On December 23, 1659 and again on February 23, 1662/3, Thomas Cooper was in the front pew. Later on February 3, 1673/4, Thomas was on the committee on crowded conditions in the meeting-house.

Thomas took the oath of fidelity on February 6, 1648/9. He was sworn as freeman (as "Ensign Thomas Cooper") on May 8, 1663. He was elected a Deputy to the General Court on April 29, 1688 (as "Lieut. Tho[mas] Cooper"); on May 27, 1668, "Lieut. Clarke & Lieut. Cooper, on their request, having been long absent from their homes, are dismissed the service of this Court."

Thomas served on many, many important committees of a public nature. He served on the Hampshire petit jury, February 8, 1643/4, April 10, 1645, March 2, 1653/4, March 1, 1654/5, September 27, 1659, March 27, 1660, September 25, 1663, September 26, 1665, September 25, 1666. Thomas was a member of the Coroner's jury April 7, 1660. He was on the committee on highways and bridges between Springfield and Hadley September 30, 1662, and the committee on highway between Hadley and Windsor September 29, 1663.

In 1645 Cooper was appointed measurer of lands for the town of Springfield on January 8, 1645/6, September 4, 1646, November 3, 1646, February 21, 1649/50, March 14, 1653/4. In this capacity surveyed the lands of "Longe Meddow" [Long Meadow] in 1646.

On October 21, 1669, Thomas was appointed by the General Court to serve on the committee of ministerial maintenance at Hadley, and the committee for "the erecting of a township [Suffield] on the west side of the River Conecticott lying southward of Springfield & Westfield bounds," on October 12, 1670.

Thomas was appointed Assessor on February 10, 1652/3, February 7, 1661/2, and August 16, 1672. He was made Highway Surveyor February 7, 1659/60. The next year on August 14, 1662, Thomas was appointed Constable in addition to his other duties.

The town elected Thomas Clerk of the Writs for Springfield February 3, 1662/3. On March 31, 1663, "Ensign Cooper of Springfield being presented to this court as chosen by the said town for Clerk of Writs, the Court allowed of him for that work & service." He was Clerk of the Writs for many years, so must have been educated above the norm. The duties of this office included the issue of summons, granting of writs of attachment in civil cases and to enter in the town books details as to births, deaths and marriages. On March 29, 1664, Ensign Thomas Cooper petitioned the court to permit him to be relieved of his appointment as Springfield Clerk of the Writs, but the Court did not permit this relief.

He was also made a member of a permanent committee to make grants of land in the Plantation - a task formerly falling to the selectmen. He was on the committee to distribute land May 19, 1645, November 21, 1654, February 5, 1660/1, February 4, 1661/2, May 11, 1663, and on the committee to purchase Mr. Moxon's land September 14, 1652. Thomas was on the committee to "dispose of the land at Woronoco" January 7, 1655/6 and the committee to "make a draft of the lands to be presented to the Court" February 15, 1660/1. The year 1661 saw Ensign Cooper along with Thomas Dumbleton appointed to lay out the highway to Chicoppe, now Chicopee, in accordance with their complete discretion as to location and width. He served on the committee on highways December 30, 1664.

Thomas had many transactions with the Indians in the purchase and mortgage of land. It was sometimes hard to determine which Sachem had the authority to transfer title. In 1660 Cooper gave a mortgage on a parcel of land supposedly owned by a Woronoco Indian named Amoacussen. In 1664, upon the failure of the Indian to make good on the mortgage, an absolute deed to the property was granted. Three other Sachems now appealed to the court alleging that they, as well as Amoacussen, were owners of the land in question. The court sustained their contention and Cooper was obliged to pay them one hundred ten fathoms of wampum which was to be recovered from Amoacussen. Most of the settlers were unskilled in dealing with the Indians and often employed experienced traders to conduct negotiations for them in the purchase of land. As such an experienced trader the Plantation of Quabaug, now Brookfield, appealed to Thomas to secure for them the Indian title to the land they were then occupying. In view of the current interest in Indian land titles this transaction is of more than passing interest: "At a General Court held at Boston 20th May 1660: In Answer to the peticion of severall Inhabitants of Ipswich, This Court Judgeth it meete to Graunt the petitioners sixe miles square or so much land as shall be conteyned in such compasse in a place near Quabaugponds, provided they have twenty families there resident within 3 years, & that they have an able minister, settled there within said terme, such as the Court shall approve, and that they shall make due provision in some way or other for the future, either by setting apart of land or what else shall be thought meete for the continuance of the ministry among them; And if they should fail in any of these particulars above mentioned this Graunt of the Court to be voyed and of none effect." This grant was dated 31 May 1660. In order to begin a settlement and take possession it was necessary to secure title from the Indians who were the owners. The deed to this tract follows:

Here followeth the Deed of the Purchase of the lands at Quabaug, now called Brookfield, from the Indian Shattoockquis together with Lieut. Cooper his designation of the said deed to the Inhabitants of Quabaug now called Brookfield for the said deed was framed in the Name of Lieut. Cooper but indeed for ye only use and behalfe of ye Inhabitants of ye said Plantation called Brookfield; also ye coppy of ye said Lieut. Cooper's acknowledgement of his said resignation before ye worspll Mjr Pynchon.

Shattoockquis an Indian above mentioned did own and acknowledge this to be his act and deed giving up all his right title & interest in the lands above mentioned unto Thomas Cooper his Associates & Assignes as above said this tenth day of November 1665. Before me, John Pynchon.

All of this activity proved to be too much and in the year 1665 he was fined six pence for failing to attend the March 20th town meeting and being unable to provide an acceptable excuse. Up to this time the local corn mill had been able to supply the needs of the Plantation but with the population growth it was no longer able to do so. Cooper was one of a committee appointed February 6, 1665/6 to make the necessary improvements or recommendations for constructing a new one.

In the meantime he served on a committee to draw up plans of the lands of the Plantation to be presented to the General Court for ratification, on another committee to appraise the livestock of the Plantation and on a third to adjudicate the requests of certain settlers to change their lots around to be more convenient for use. At the town meeting of February 4, 1667, Cooper, with Elizur Holyoke, was chosen to audit the accounts of the selectmen for the previous year. This was a chore he continued to discharge for many years.

In 1666 he was one of a committee to consider the poor estate of some of the settlers in the Plantation, and in need of relief, reporting to the town with recommendations as to what should be done. In 1667 the minister reported that the minister's residence needed to be enlarged, but that he did not have sufficient funds for the purpose. Cooper served on the committee to make the necessary arrangements and have the work done. The following year £20 was raised to pay the Indians for the Plantation land and of this Cooper's share was eleven shillings. Later some of the settlers failed to pay their allotted shares of this expense. The committee was empowered to recover the overdue payments. At the town meeting of August 16, 1672 Cooper was appointed to join the selectmen in setting the tax rate.

In 1674 a commission, of which he was a member, was appointed to examine the highways on the west side of the river, damaged by floods, and make recommendations for repairs or relocation as appeared necessary.

By this time the population of the Plantation had increased to a point where the original meeting house was no longer adequate. The town decided to build a new one and Cooper was added to the original group which had been chosen to supervise the work on the new building.

Thomas, like all adult men, served in the town's militia. He was chosen ensign of Springfield train band on October 23, 1657 and lieutenant of train band on September 24, 1667. In the midst of all of this activity he was literally unable to keep all of his fences mended, high water due to flooding of the river, saved him from being fined.

Thomas held a variety of occupations besides that of carpenter. On January 10, 1658/9, there is "liberty granted to Tho[mas] Cooper to keep a ferry at the lower wharf & to land people below the mouth of Agawam River, & none are to carry over any persons, horses, or cattle over the Great River to take any pay except they allow & pay it to the said Tho[mas] CooperÉAnd the privilege of this ferry is granted to him for 21 years from this year 1658."

Both Thomas and his wife were medical practitioners. Thomas in particular had considerable skill as a bone setter, being often called upon throughout the County of Hampshire, as there was no regular physician or surgeon available. On May 28, 1655, John Pynchon, writing to John Winthrop, Jr. about his wife's health, referred to "Goodwife Cooper who hath formerly tended my wife in her weakness," and, on March 7, 1659/60, Pynchon thanked Winthrop for "those prayers of cordial powder you sent my wife by Ensign Cooper." On March 30, 1675, "Lt. Cooper sending his desires to this Court that seeing he is upon necessity put to go so often to & fro for setting of broke bones & that frequently he hath little or nothing for his labors & for the good done through God's blessing by his means, that the Court would order him he shall be satisfied for such his labors &c. The Court refer consideration thereof to the next Court at Springfield, that he may be consulted & that done which is convenient, for this Court doth judge it altogether reasonable that he should have suitable recompense for such works." (Nothing was ever done in this matter, as Lt. Thomas Cooper was dead six months later.)

Thomas was also an active businessman and fur trader in association with both William and John Pynchon, who supplied with large quantities of beaver pelts and other goods which he exchanged with the Indians. In May 1652, Pynchon made this entry in his books: "Sold him the Commoditys here following, to be pd in Bever at current prices or in good wampum Sometime wthin ye yeare." In this purchase was 107 yards of Red Shag Cotton at 3s. pr. yd., £16 1s.; "Blew" trading cloth, 206 yards, £90 18s. 9d. In the credits were 206 lbs. of beaver at 9s., £92 14s.; 399 1/2 lbs. of beaver at 10s., £199, 15s.

Under date of February 14, 1658, is this entry: "I Thomas Cooper Doe hereby acknowledge to have Recd of Mr. John Pynchon a pscell of English goods as they cost in England to ye Sum of Seventeene pounds, wch sum of Seventeene pounds sterling I ingage to pay in England by michalstide next, to whom Mr. John Pynchon shall appoint me in London in England, I ingage to make such allowance as is fit & meete & hereto set my hand this 14th Febr 1658. Thomas Cooper."

Below in Pynchon's hand, as was the above agreement, is this: "Acots concerning this £17 were examined & set to rights by Brother Holyoke & Deacon [Samuel] Chapin, & all differences & offences have Issued & satisfied, I abated 20s. & ye rest is pd me this 17 of January, 1660." The balance in the accounts against Cooper in 1653 was £262, in 1655, £391, in 1658, £682, but sale of beaver and work performed at different times reduced them to a much smaller amount at some period in the year. There does not appear to have been any stated time with Pynchon for settlement with any of his customers, the amount of the account appears to have determined the time of striking a balance to which the debtor set his hand.

It is interesting that Cooper frequently had accounts with Pynchon that were, in those times, very large sums. There seem to have been no serious disagreements, save for one incident involving a trifling amount. This time Cooper resorted to legal action in a dispute over a few shillings. He lost the suit but the court scaled down the amount he was obliged to pay.

Thomas Cooper was not untouched by the witchcraft trials and gave a deposition in the trial of Hugh Parsons in 1651.

The Springfield settlers had lived in peace with their Indian neighbors, Agawams and Pocumtucks, for nearly forty years, with daily and friendly dealings. It was supposed that they had not entered into a conspiracy with Philip (King Philip's War). The Indians professed steadfast friendship for the settlers and had even given hostages who had been sent to Hartford, CT for greater security. The residents of Springfield felt secure in their daily lives. There was an Indian, Toto, living with the family of a Mr. Walcott in Windsor, CT, twenty miles away. On the evening of October 4, 1675 Toto seemed very disturbed and distraught. Upon questioning, he revealed that a plot had been under way for the destruction of Springfield. Aroused after midnight, the settlers took refuge in three fortified houses. Among the group was Thomas Cooper, Lieut. of the militia company, who a short time before had led a party of soldiers from Springfield to the relief of the besieged Brookfield. These were the older men of the town. The younger men under the leadership of Major Pynchon were at Hadley at this time.

By the next day nothing out of the ordinary had occurred and many thought that this had been a false alarm. One of those questioning the accuracy of the alarm was Thomas Cooper. He determined to find out the true state of affairs by a personal visit to the Indian fort. For many years he had dealt with the Agawams and Pocumtucks and knew many of them by name. He felt that no harm could come to him from their hands. Taking with him Thomas Miller, the two rode to the fort. They had gone about a quarter of a mile beyond the last house to the south of the settlement when they were fired upon by unseen foes. Miller was killed instantly. Thomas was fatally wounded, but being an energetic and resolute man, he managed to remount his horse and ride at full gallop back to the nearest house. Before reaching it, he was shot again by the Pocumtucks in hot pursuit. He died upon reaching the house. The Pocumtucks then burst upon the settlement with the greatest fury, burning houses and barns and destroying the livestock.

The killing of Thomas Cooper by the Indians when they burned Springfield must have caused a great shock to the community and his tragic death brought a realizing sense of the defenseless condition of every settlement exposed to a treacherous foe. That Thomas should have had perfect confidence in his ability to dissuade the Indians from their hostile action is not strange. He had been among them for many years and was on familiar terms with many of them for miles around within the vicinity of Springfield. At this time Thomas was a man just under sixty years of age, and a resident of the town for more than thirty years.

In the personal journal of John Pynchon is the entry: "Lieut Thomas Cooper died 5 October 1675." These events may be seen in perspective from the account which John Pynchon gave to Governor Leverett:

To Governor John Leverett, M.A, Springfield, 8 October 1675

Honored Sir:

I desired Mr Russell to give you an account of the sore stroke upon poor distressed Springfield, which I hope will excuse my late doing of it. On the 4th of October our soldiers which were at Springfield I had called off, leaving none to secure the town because the Commissioners order was so strict. That night post was sent to us that 500 Indians were about Springfield intending to destroy it, so that the 5th of October with about 200 of our soldiers I marched down to Springfield where we found all in flames: about 30 dwelling houses burnt down and 24 to 25 barns, my corn mill, sawmill, and other buildings. Generally men's hay and corn is burnt and many men whose houses stand had their goods burnt in other houses which they had carried them to.

Lieutenant Cooper and two more slain and four persons wounded, two of which are doubtful of their recovery. The Lord hath made us drink deep the cup of sorrow; I desire we may consider the operation of his hand, and what he speak, yet that the town did not utterly perish is cause of great thankfulness. As soon as our forces appeared the Indians all drew off, so that we saw none of them. Sent out scouts that night and the next day, but discovered none, neither can we satisfy ourselves which way they are gone, their tracks being many ways, we think, are gone down the river; our last discovery was of a considerable track upwards. Our endeavors here are to secure the houses and corn that is left, for this sad providence hath obstructed our going out with the army and what can be done I am at great loss. Our people are under great discouragement, talk of leaving the place; we need your orders and direction about it. If it be deserted how woefully do we yield to encourage our insolent enemy and how doth it make way for the giving up of all the towns above it. If it be held, it must be by strength, and many soldiers, and how to have provisions, I mean bread for want of a mill, is difficult; the soldiers here already complain on that account although we have flesh enough; and this very strait. I mean no mill will drive many of our inhabitants away especially those that have no corn, and many of them no houses which fills and throngs up every room of those that have together with our soldiers no (which yet we can not be without) increasing in number. So that indeed it is uncomfortable living her, and for my own particular it were far better for me to go away because here I have not anything left. I mean no corn, neither Indian or English, and no means to keep one beast here, nor can I have relief in this town because so many are destitute. But I resolve to attend to what God calls me to, and to stick it as long as I can, and though I have such great loss of my comforts, yet to do what I can for defending this place. I hope god will make up in himself what is wanting in the creature to me and to us all. This day a post is sent up from Hartford to call off Major Treat with a part of his soldiers, from intelligence they have of a party of Indians lying against Wethersfield on the east side of the river. So that matters here do linger exceedingly, which makes me wonder what the Lord intends with his people, strange providences diverting us in all our hopeful designs and the Lord giving opportunity to the enemy to do us mischief and then hiding them and answering all our prayers by terrible things in righteousness.

Sir, I am no capable of holding any command, being more and more unfit and almost confounded in my understanding. The Lord direct you to pitch on a meeter person than ever I was; according to liberty from the Council I shall devolve upon Captain Appleton unless Major Treat return again, until you shall give your orders as shall meet to yourselves.

To speak my thoughts, all these towns ought to be garrisoned, as I have formerly hinted, and had I been left to myself I should think have done that which possibly might have prevented this damage. But the express order to do as I did was by the wise dispensing hand of God who knew it best for us, and therein we must acquiesce and truly go out after the Indians in the swamps and thickets is to hazard all our men unless we knew where they keep, which is altogether unknown to us, and God hides from us for ends best known to himself.

I have many times thought that the winter were that time to fall on them, but there are such difficulty that I shall leave it, yet suggest it to consideration. I will not trouble you at present, but earnestly crave your prayers for the Lord's undertaking for us and sanctifying all his stroke to us. I remain, Your unworthy servant, John Pynchon.

We are at great hazard if we do not stir out of our wood to be shot down by skulking Indians.

The inventory of the estate of "Thomas Cooper Senior" presented March 28, 1676, totaled £287 8s. of which £150 was real estate: "houses & lands" £150. His inventory included "wheels & cooper's ware" valued at £3 4s.

James Ward VVeteran

Birth: 1759 Virginia, USA
Death: 17 Nov 1830 (aged 70-71) Pope County, Illinois, USA
Burial: Burial Details Unknown

Memorial #: 248978765

Bio:
On October 7, 1780, brother met brother, neighbor met neighbor, Patriot met Loyalist on a battlefield in rural South Carolina. The battle lasted an hour: the brevity belied the import. Thomas Jefferson proclaimed the Battle of King's Mountain turned "the tide of success which terminated the Revolutionary War, with the seal of our independence."
Fewer than one thousand American Heroes, through skill, luck, and the leadership of cunning strategists, defeated Patrick Ferguson, a brilliant star of the British military might. James Ward was one of those Heroes.
His participation in the battle was documented by his Application for Revolutionary War Pension. Will Graves developed software to aid in transcribing the pensions.

Where the meaning is not compromised by adhering to the spelling, punctuation or grammar, no change has been made. Corrections or additional notes have been inserted within brackets or footnotes. Blanks appearing in the transcripts reflect blanks in the original. A bracketed question mark indicates that the word or words preceding it represent(s) a guess by me. Only materials pertinent to the military service of the veteran and to contemporary events have been transcribed. Affidavits that provide additional information on these events are included and genealogical information is abstracted, while standard, 'boilerplate' affidavits and attestations related solely to the application, and later nineteenth and twentieth century research requests for information have been omitted. I use speech recognition software to make all my transcriptions. Such software misinterprets my southern accent with unfortunate regularity and my poor proofreading fails to catch all misinterpretations. Also, dates or numbers which the software treats as numerals rather than words are not corrected: for example, the software transcribes "the eighth of June one thousand eighty six" as "the 8th of June 1786." Please call errors or omissions to my attention.]
State of KentuckyMcCracken County: SS
On this 5th day of January in the year 1841 personally appeared before the undersigned a Justice of the peace for the County and State aforesaid Elizabeth Ward a resident of said County and State - aged about eighty-four years who being first duly sworn according to law doth on her oath make the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the provisions made by the Act of Congress passed July 4th 1836 -
That she is the widow of James Ward who was a Soldier of the war of the revolution and she states that her husband the said James Ward to the best of her recollection and belief served as herein after stated to wit: -
Her husband the said James Ward in the year 1777 or 1778 lived high up on Holston River near the mountains which was at that time a frontier - and thinly inhabited - he lived near the line dividing between the States of Virginia and North Carolina - She thinks he lived in Virginia & that it was then called Montgomery County. - The settlements were much exposed to the depredations of the Cherokee Indians and in the summer of 1778 her husband the said James Ward entered the service of the United States as a volunteer Indian spy for a tour of six months under Captain Cocke.
The head quarters or station of Captain Cocke's command was at Eaton's Station on or near the Holston River but the soldiers were employed almost constantly in ranging through the woods as spies for the protection of the settlements and in July or August 1778 her husband was in a battle with a party of Indians in the woods below the said station whom they repulsed - her said husband served out his engagement of six months under Captain Cocke - and having become expert as a woodsman and the settlements being much annoyed by the inroads of the Indians - a new station was built on Holston River below Eaton's called Island Fort to which place all the families in the surrounding settlements moved for protection - and a company of spies were enlisted to range the wilderness and protect the Fort and Inhabitants - This arrangement was made by authority of the Government upon the application of the principle inhabitants say Colonels Shelby - Campbell and Sevier -
It was in this company of Indian spies that your declarant's husband entered the second time in the spring of the year 1779 as a volunteer Indian spy - under Captain James Shelby his Lieutenant's name was George Hart and the whole establishment was principally under the direction of Colonel Isaac Shelby and Major Anthony Bledsoe - her husband's enlistment was at first for the time of three months but having served out that period and the Indians still continuing troublesome and your declarant's husband having become an expert spy - he was induced to continue in the service under the same officers (the old spies generally renewing their engagements) in this way he continued in the same service renewing his engagement about every three months for a period of about two years commencing in the spring of 1779 and ending sometime in the year 1781 and the fall of the latter year and expedition was made against the Cherokee Indians from the settlements on Holston under Colonel Sevier and your declarant's husband served in this expedition as a private soldier under Captain Ning Hoskins [probably Capt. Ninian Hoskins] and there was a Captain Looney in the same Corps.
They visited the Indian towns south of the French Broad River - Burnt several of them - defeated the Indians - destroyed their corn and other property and returned - near the close of the year 1781 and with this last expedition close to the military services of your declarant's husband he having served in all about three years -
Your declarant first became acquainted with her said husband whilst he was an Indian spy at the Island Fort on Holston River. She thinks it was then Montgomery County Virginia where he entered in each instance -
She further declares that she was married to the said James Ward according to the best of her knowledge and belief in the same County and State above named on the 11th of August 1779. She will however not be positive as to day or month - She is positive that it was whilst he was in the service as an Indian spy and long before he made the expedition under Colonel Sevier against the Cherokees, and consequently before the end of his last period of service - and she further declares that she lived with her said husband James Ward as his wife from the period of the marriage in 1779 down to the 17th day of November 1830 upon which latter day he the said James Ward departed this life in the County of Pope and State of Illinois and that she has remained a widow ever since that period as will more fully appear by reference to the proof hereto annexed.
She will further state that neither herself nor husband could read or write & that they kept no family record & she consequently has none nor does she think that there is any record of her marriage as it was a new country & scarcely any law in vogue on the frontiers but she states that she was married to James Ward by the Reverend Philip Milky a Baptist preacher. She has no documentary evidence.
S/ Elizabeth Ward, X her mark
Sworn to and subscribed on the day and year above written before the subscriber a Justice of the peace for the County and State aforesaid and I do certify that the above named Elizabeth Ward appears to me to be a very old person and that she is entitled to credit on her oath & that from age and bodily infirmity she is unable to attend court to make her declaration.
S/ James Ashley, JP
State of KentuckyCalloway County: SS
On this 13th day of January in the year 1841 personally appeared before the undersigned a Justice of the peace for the County and State aforesaid Jesse Henson1 a resident of said County and State aged about eighty-two years who being first duly sworn according to law doth on his oath make the following statement in relation to the military services of James Ward during the War of the revolution and of his the said James Ward's marriage with the same Elizabeth Ward who made her declaration before James Ashley Esquire of McCracken County Kentucky on the 5th day of January 1841 in order to obtain the benefit of the provision made by the act of Congress passed July 4th 1832 -
This affiant states that the said Elizabeth Ward is his Sister and that she is about two years older than himself - her declaration above referred to was then read over to him in his hearing, and he states that the facts stated in the said declaration to the best of his recollection and belief are true -
This affiant states that he is an unlettered man and consequently has no records or written memoranda that would enable him to be strictly accurate in relation to days and dates - and length of terms of service - names of officers etc. etc. - But he has no hesitation in saying that the said James Ward did serve at least six months as an Indian spy in the year 1778 and he thinks that this service was as a private under Captain Cocke although part of the service may have been under other officers -
as to the locality or place where the services were performed the affiant states that it was chiefly in the woods having their station or headquarters at Amos Eaton's station on Holston River in Virginia and at Rye Cove another station in the same region of country - he knows that the spies had a skirmish with the Indians in the woods near the stations in July or August 1778 and that the said James Ward was in said skirmish - This affiant was himself there and participated in said skirmish in which they defeated the Indians -
This affiant makes the following statement in relation to the said James Ward's service as an Indian spy at the Island Fort on Holston River which was situated he thinks in the State of Virginia Montgomery County - it is his best belief & recollection that the said James Ward commenced his service there as a private Indian spy in the spring of the year 1779 under Captain James Shelby and Lieutenant George Hart - they were the principal officers who had command of the active corps of spies or Rangers - nevertheless there were other officers of the same rank who occasionally done duty - and there were others of a higher rank who seemed to have the chief direction but who scarcely ever went into the woods - amongst these were the Colonels Campbell - Shelby & Sevier and Major Bledsoe -
The said Ward continued in this service as an Indian spy at the above named Fort chiefly under Captain Shelby from the time he entered the spring of the year 1779 until sometime in the year 1781 say about September - This affiant does not think he said Ward served the whole year round in each instance for he recollects that in the winter season the Indians generally ceased their incursions and then the spies were discharged until next spring - and in this way the said James Ward he thinks served about eight months in each year during the year 1779, 1780 and 1781 at the Island Fort on Holston and in the fall of the latter year the said James Ward entered Captain Ning Hoskins' company as a private and with him joined Colonel Sevier's Corps of volunteers and with him made an expedition South of the French Broad River on to the Cherokee Nation - This affiant served in the same Corps with the said James Ward but under a different Captain - the said James Ward served three months under this engagement -
This affiant will also state that he occasionally served with said James Ward as a spy at the Island Fort above mentioned under Captain Shelby but not all the time - as he was occasionally absent on other expeditions - past of the mountains particularly in the year 1780 at the Battle of Kings Mountain in which Battle the affiant anticipated -
This affiant states that the said James Ward and Elizabeth Ward were married in the settlement near the Island Fort on the Holston River in Montgomery County Virginia in the year 1779 to the best of his recollection by a Reverend Philip Milky a Baptist preacher - This marriage took place long before the said James Ward's last period of service as a Indian spy and still longer before his tour of duty under Colonel Sevier and he states that they the said James & Elizabeth Ward lived together as husband & wife from the period of their marriage in 1779 until said James Ward's death which took place in the year 1830 and he states that the said Elizabeth Ward never intermarried with any other person since the death of said James Ward but half remained a widow ever since.

[HQ p. 11: On January 14, 1841 in Calloway County Kentucky, Henry Darnall gave testimony that he was acquainted with James and Elizabeth Ward when they lived in Calloway County Kentucky; where he first became acquainted with them in 1789 there to eldest children were Edmond and Elizabeth who were fully grown; in addition to those 2 children, he also knew 5 other children of the veteran and his wife namely James, George, Demsey, William and Phebe.]
Elizabeth Henson Ward was the daughter of William Henson who fought at the Battle of King's Mountain as a Tory. The Jesse Henson who testified on behalf of James Ward was her brother. He was on the BKM Campaign but did not fight in the Battle of King's Mountain. (Reference Find a Grave Memorial #11307314.)

Notes for Thomas DERRYBERRY

Biography

The 1830 census shows a Thomas Der[ry]berry listed in Perry Co., TN on the same page as Andrew and his son Michael C.,
and so Thomas is assumed to have been another son of Andrew's. Thomas was age 15-20 in 1830, and had 7 females in the
household, ranging in age from 0-5 to 30-40. There were no other males in the household, so Thomas's age was probably
on the high side of that range. Thomas is not mentioned in any later records, including the 1837 tax list that
mentions Andrew and Michael, and so Thomas is assumed to have died before then.

It is unclear whether he was married in 1830, but it is possible that one of the women in the household age 20-30 was
his wife, and that the girl age 0-5 was a young daughter. However, no candidate descendants have been identified.

Sources

1830 US census, Perry Co., TN [img 17]
Thos Derberry 0001 103012
[Same page as Andrew and M. C. Derberry. The identities of the women in this household are currently unknown.
However, two of the three females age 10-15 here may correspond to two girls under 10 in Andrew's household in 1820.
The two older women here have no correspondence with the 1820 entry for Andrew.]

The woman J. J. Derryberry, born about 1810, and found in the 1860 census in Decaturville, could have been a widow of
Thomas, but there is no evidence one way or the other, since marital status was not marked on the censuses at that
time. She could also have been one of his sisters.

Cuthbert Harrison

Birth: 1618 North Yorkshire, England ?? - not 1607 in Middlesex ??
Death: 1699 (aged 80-81)
Burial: Harrison CemeteryPrince William County, Virginia, USA ** - not Yorkshire - see below ??**
Memorial #: 137562532

Bio:
Husband of Susannah (nee Burr, according to some researchers).

"The First Harrisons to come to Virginia, according to the best information obtainable, were Cuthbert Harrison, Esq., of Ancaster, Caxtn and Flaxby, Yorkshire, England, and his son, Burr, II, who according to the reister of Dettingen Parish, Prince William County, Virginia, was baptised in the Parish of St. Margaretts, Westminster, England, on the twenth-eight of December, 1637, and on this register he is spoken of as "Burr Harrison of Chappawmsic". . . son of Cuthbert Harrison." when Cuthbert Harrison, Ind his son, Burr, II, first came to Virginia is unknown.
Cuthbert Harrison I, with his son, Burr II, settled in then Stafford County, Virginia, on the northern side of the Chappawamsic Creek near Dumfries and there today lies the old estate called "Cahappawamsic," with its quaint old grave yard, where once lived and now rest, so far as known, the first Harrisons of our line who came to America. Old deeds in Prince William and Stafford Counties show that in the latter part of the seventeenth century large tracts of land on the Chappawamsic Creek were granted to Burr Harrison, II.
The site of this estate is easily accessible from Washington. A ride of about an hour over the Southern Railroad brings one to Quantico and from Quantico to Chappawamsic Creek is only about one mile. Crossing the creek you turn inland and a ride of a few miles will bring you to a quaint old grave yard where now rest the earthly remains of the first Harrisons of Virginia."

Knaresborough is near Leeds, in Yorkshire. This lineage is from the Visitation of Yorkshire, 1612 as cited in J. Houston Harrison's Settlers by the Long Grey Trail (1935). The arms of this family are given as: "Azure three demi lions erased Or. Crest: A demi lion as in the arms, holding a laurel wreath vertical." These arms are also the arms of Col. Burr Harrison of Chappawamsie, VA, 1722, which solidifies the connection Burr Harrison's line to this older English family.

Terry: You may have seen my postings in attempts to located ancestors my early ancestor WILLIAM BARCLAY(1754-1836) and wife Sarah COOPER(1771-1841). Have been unsuccessful thus far. However, in search I extracted info from a Barclay family history at the Library of Congress(I think) on the well documented family of William BARCLAY(1669-1732) born in Scotland or NIreland, uncertain when arrived in PA(land records lists a William Barclay in 1725), lived/died Lancaster Co PA. He had at least three sons: John, Hugh and William (unfortunately not my William) This John Barclay(1699-1765)unknown where born married Martha McConnell. Land records show he farmed on West Branch of Octorara Creek, Colerain Twp, Lancaster Co PA in 1736. He had no children but will mentions his wife's relatives John, Daniel and Alexander McConnell, a cousin Mary Allison and several nephews who were sons of brothers Hugh and William.
Incidently, his brother Hugh( -1764)served in the French and Indian War and Hugh's son Hugh Jr(1729-1806)married to Mary Culbertson and Martha Smith moved to Rockbridge Co VA after Revoltionary War.
So many Barclays in colonial PA but perhaps this is the John you mention. Others in the Barclay discussions much more familiar with this family than I. HOWEVER....I continue seeking leads to my lost William!! Regards. Bill [email protected]
