Catherine may have been the wife of Daniel Brown. Daniel lived in the same tithable district as the Echols and both a Daniel and Catherine Brown witnessed a deed in Amelia County between George Marchbanks The Marchbanks and Gillintine families were related. Amelia County listed Daniel as a tithable until 1753 and appointed him a surveyor in 1741. Amelia County listed Daniel Brown head of a household of two whites and four blacks in 1782. He was then living in the same census district with the Hillsman and Clement families. Yet no deeds appeared in Amelia County for Daniel Brown throughout 1786. Daniel and his wife may have moved to Halifax County because it was here in 1771 that Daniel witnessed the will of Catherine's uncle William Echols Sr. | Gillintine, Catherine (I9855)

| 881 | Comments: "I have been trying to find accurate dates for Constance Le Gros, daughter of Conan Le Gros and Maud FitaRoy and everything I find is totally implausible. It's like peope post stuff to their family trees without even thinking. If Constance was indeed born in 1118 (which is reasonable if Conan and Maud were married around 1113 and Constance was the youngest of 3 children), how could she have born a son (Alan) in 1124 and another (Geoffrey) in 1126? Six and eight years old seems awfully young for people to have had children. Some people show Constance born in 1108, but with Conan born in 1096, which most historical sites I have examined seem to agree on, he would have only been 12 years old when she was born. I see you are listing as sources the LDS Family Search web site, which is only as accurate as the people submitting the information and a lot of people don't seem to have been looking at dates when submitting. Most historical sites I have looked at also put ! Constance's birth at 1118, and Geoffrey's at 1126 (I've only seen the earlier 1124 son Alan on one other site besides yours), but I just don't see how that is possible. Have you considered the absurdity of that information?" Sincerely, Sharee Hughes | Bretagne, Constance Princess Of (I36527)

On 15 July 1743, James Collins conveyed to William Hutchison 100 acres on the upper side of Flat Creek. Elizabeth, his wife, relinquished her dower right. This land was part of James's 400-acre land patent of 14 October 1736. James and Elizabeth sold another 100-acre portion of his patent to John Compton of Louisa County 24 September 1743 for £10. They continued to live in Amelia County until 20 November 1747 when they sold their last 200 acres to John Compton for £60. The Collins's disappeared from Amelia County about 1748 and probably moved to Lunenburg (now Halifax) County with the Marchbank, Gillintine, and Hubbard families. | Gillintine, Elisabeth (I9856)

| 884 | John Gillintine, the son of Nicholas Gillintine and his Echols wife, did not inherit anything in his father's will because his father had already given him 397 acres of land. Nevertheless John's heirs got £5 cash so they would not dispute the will. John appeared himself on a tithe list beginning in 1738, soon after receiving the land from his father. John was often assigned to jury duty in Amelia County. On 19 August 1745, the churchwardens bound out William Allen, an orphan, to John Gillintine. Researchers believe John married Rachel Hendrick, the daughter of Adolphus Hendrick. Adolphus secured a patent for 490 acres in King William County 20 February 1719/20, and 1,000 acres on 28 September 1728. Hans Hendrick, Adolphus's father, appeared first in Virginia first on 25 April 1701 when he received a patent for 594 acres in King and Queen County for the importation of twelve persons including himself and his wife, Jane. A year later, on 28 October 1702, Hans obtained a patent for 175 acres “in sight of Hance's old plantation.” Later, on 24 March 1725/6, Hance Hendrick Sr. patented 200 acres in St. John's Parish of King William County. On this same day Hans Hendrick Jr. patented 100 acres nearby. The latter was the Hans Hendrick who appeared later in Amelia County records. This Hans Hendrick wrote his will in Amelia County 30 January 1773. On 20 March 1746/7, John Gillintine deeded an acre of his Amelia County land to William Echols On 20 March 1748/9, John Gillintine, “of Lunenburg County,” made two deeds in Amelia County. One was for 100 acres to Nicholas Gillintine for £8 and the other was for 50 acres for £5 to John Hill, of Raleigh Parish. He later sold Moses Estes 240 acres on 7 October 1749, for £40. On 3 November 1750, John Guillintine held 204 acres on the south side of the Staunton River in Lunenburg County. John Gillintine appeared as a single tithable on Lunenburg County lists in 1748, 1749, and 1750. When they created Halifax County, his land fell in the new county. From 1752 until 1756, he was a member of the Vestry of Antrim Parish in Halifax County. Among the other first vestrymen of Antrim were Richard Echols John was in a mess of trouble in 1753. Clement Read, then the king's prosecutor, accused John of passing counterfeit coins. A few months later they charged him the cost of a trial because he wrongly accused Nathaniel Terry of riding a stray horse. John left no will and they returned the inventory of his estate on 20 January 1763. Children of John Gillintine: William Gillintine [418.4.1] was identified as a son of John Gillintine in the original will of his grandfather, Nicholas. On 10 July 1762, William Gillintine made a deed of gift to his father “for love, good will & the better maintenance of sd John.” The tract was 102 acres in Halifax County next to Edward Booker. Witnesses to this deed were Richard Murphy and Joseph Echols We know that three years earlier Edward Booker was farming land John already owned. This suggests that John could not farm his own land but was supporting himself on rent. William died before 7 October 1786 when three Halifax County citizens inventoried his estate. Two Gillintine women married in Halifax County and we have placed them as daughters of William Gillintine - the only known male Gillintine. Elizabeth Gillintine [418.4.1.1] married Isaac Martin in Halifax County 5 October 1791. He was the son of Isaac Martin of Halifax County who originated in Caroline County. Susanna Gillintine [418.4.1.2] married Benjamin Hubbard Priscilla Gillintine [418.4.2] was Priscilla Hendrick in the will of her grandfather. She married Nathaniel Hendrick, her first cousin once removed. Nathaniel died in Pittsylvania County (will dated 25 Jan. 1793 , recorded 19 June 1797). Mary Hendrick [418.4.2.1] married John Craddock Sarah Hendrick [418.4.2.2] married a Dews. Ezekiel Hendrick [418.4.2.3]. Jerusha Gillintine [418.4.3] was identified as a daughter of “John Gillington, decd.” in the original 1772-will of her grandfather, Nicholas. | Gillintine, John (I9858)

He served in the French and Indian War and in the Revolution. He was ensign, and marched on the alarm of the 19th of April, 1775, and served ten days. He was also at Dorchester Heights. " Ebenezer Everett — Petition dated Dedham, March 21, 1780, signed by said Everett that he had been appointed Captain of 7th co., Col.

(Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution, p. 424.) Capt. Ebenezer Everett d. at Dedham, Oct. 1, 1808. Isaac 6 Everett, b. at Dedham, Dec. 21, 1757; m. May 8, 1786, Elizabeth Tower of "Tower Hill," Braintree. John 1 Tower was b. at Hingham, England, bap. 1607: he was the son of Robert and Dorithie [Damon] Tower. The mother, Dorothy, was buried at Hingham, England, Nov. 10, 16S9; the father, Robert, was buried in the same place, May 1, 1634. John Gushing of Hingham, in New England, made this record: "1637. — John Tower and Samuel Lincoln came from Old Hingham and settled in New Hingham" [ Samuel Lincoln was the ancestor of Abraham Lincoln]. We do not know the reasons why John Tower left a comfortable home in England for the hardships of a life in the wilderness, probably for the same reasons which induced so many others to emigrate during the period between 1630 and 1640. Among the parishes in England in sympathy with the Puritan movement was that of Hingham, where Robert Peck had been installed as rector a few years before John Tower was born, and under whose ministry John Tower had passed the whole period of his life up to the time of his emigration. Robert Peck had become so decided in expressing his opinions as to receive admonition from his superior, Bishop Wren. He was asked to reform his opinions. Later he came under the censure of Bishop Laud. He was then obliged to retract or leave the country, which he did in 1638, with his wife, two children, and two servants, settling in Hingham, New England, where he was ordained teacher of the church, Nov. 28, 1638. He returned to England with his family, October, 1641. Rev. Peter Hobart ( grad. Magdalen Coll., England) came from Hingham, England, with his father Edmund, Sr., who settled in Hingham, New England, where the father was deputy. There was a brother, Josiah, who became a very prominent and useful citizen at Hingham. Rev. Peter * Hobart was minister at Hingham for forty-four years. [Rev. Peter Hobart was one of the writer's ancestors, as will appear later.] There were several families that came from their English home at Hingham and settled in New Hingham. It is said that many of these sold out their possessions at a great sacrifice. It does not appear that John Tower made any sacrifice. In those times it was not uncommon for young men without means to secure their passage as "servants" to some one who was able to pay the passage money. The ancestors of some of our now opulent people came into this country as servants. | Everett, John (I4131)

| 888 | Response: Well, you're right, of course. But since most genealogical data shows the dates you call into question, I'm not sure what can be done about it at this point. For my part, in my database I've added 10 years to the likely birth dates of both of Constance's children, and double-checked that both are still labeled "About" to signify that the dates are, at best, approximate. This doesn't conflict with the birth dates of Geoffrey's wife or children, and I believe it represents a good compromise, given that first hand knowledge of the specific dates are almost 900 years removed. - Wicasta Lovelace | Bretagne, Constance Princess Of (I36527)

His father and namesake, Oliver C., was a Civil War veteran who came West with his wife Augusta from Maine in 1876 and settled on the flats near Dodge Valley.

Very tragic story about their deaths was written in the 1935 edition of the Saratogian. Their two children perished in a fire. Never fully recovering from the deaths of her children, Ruth died several months later. Salmun died less than 4 years later. The cemetery is the basement of the house where the children died (the walls of the foundation are still standing and the stones are still intact). The article does not make mention of other family members, but the next time I am in Saratoga, I will take a look through the archives for the other names you mentioned. Also, the largest cemetery and most widely used is Greenridge in Saratoga. I will see if I can locate that list and I will let you know if I find anything. Judy | Munger, Salmon (I3105)

| 892 | Marriage Notes for John ECHOLS\Mary Jane CAPERTON: "Echols Notes, Vol.1" by Rebecca Echols Terry, 1977, p31 WEST VIRGINIA Monroe County John Echols & Mary Jane Caperton - 20 Nov 1844 http://www.virginiamemory.com/online_classroom/union_or_secession/people/john_echols JOHN ECHOLS (1823?1896) John Echols (20 March 1823?24 May 1896), member of the Convention of 1861 and Confederate army officer, was born in Lynchburg and was the son of Joseph Echols and Elizabeth Frances Lambeth Echols. After graduating from Washington College (later Washington and Lee University) in 1840, he enrolled that summer at the Virginia Military Institute. Echols resigned from VMI on 14 August 1841 but later was made an honorary graduate of the Class of 1843. He also studied law at Harvard College. After a brief stint teaching in Harrisonburg, Echols was admitted to the bar in Rockbridge County in October 1843. He practiced law in Staunton before moving to Monroe County. There Echols executed a marriage bond on 20 November 1844 and on that date or soon afterward married Mary Jane Caperton, whose father Hugh Caperton had sat in the House of Representatives for a single term. Their one daughter and two sons included Edward Echols, who served as lieutenant governor of Virginia from 1898 to 1902. Echols served as commonwealth's attorney and in December 1851 won election as a Whig representing Monroe County in the House of Delegates during the sessions that met from January to June 1852 and from November 1852 to April 1853. He sat on the Committee on Roads and Internal Navigation and on joint committees to examine the treasurer's accounts and for the protection of slave property and for the removal of free blacks from the state. At the time of the 1850 census he owned two adult and three young slaves, and a decade later he owned four adult and two young slaves. The Convention of 1861 On 4 February 1861 Echols and his brother-in-law Allen Taylor Caperton were chosen to represent Monroe County in a convention called to determine Virginia's response to the secession crisis. He sat on the Committees on Finance and on Military Affairs. On 1 March he offered resolutions calling on Congress to recognize the Confederate States as an independent nation. Echols sided with the majority voting against secession on 4 April. Following the firing on Fort Sumter and Abraham Lincoln's call for troops to suppress the rebellion, he voted on 17 April for secession, and in a speech several days later he called for sound planning and efficient military organization. Echols later signed the Ordinance of Secession. He resigned from the convention on 11 November, before the third and final session met. The Civil War On 30 May 1861 Echols was commissioned a lieutenant colonel in the 27th Regiment Virginia Infantry, which he had organized and which fought as part of the Stonewall Brigade. In part because of his actions commanding the regiment at the First Battle of Manassas (Bull Run) on 21 July, he won promotion to colonel on 14 October. Echols received severe wounds in his arm and shoulder at the First Battle of Kernstown, near Winchester, on 23 March 1862 but returned to service after being promoted to brigadier general on 18 April, to date from 16 April. He then served under Major General William Wing Loring, whom he succeeded as commander of the Department of Western Virginia and East Tennessee, operating in the Kanawha valley. Citing ill health, Echols tendered his resignation as brigadier general on 30 June 1863, a request approved on 3 July but then disallowed. He sat on a board of inquiry investigating the Confederate failure at Vicksburg and in November commanded troops in the Confederate defeat at the Battle of Droop Mountain, in West Virginia. On 15 May 1864 Echols fought at the Battle of New Market and then marched to reinforce Confederate troops defending Richmond. He led his regiments at the Battle of Cold Harbor late in May and early in June. Threatening Washington, D.C., on 9 July 1864 Echols commanded a brigade at the Battle of Monocacy, near Frederick, Maryland. During the autumn and winter of 1864, Echols deployed troops to Floyd County to suppress Confederate deserters and their secret Unionist supporters. On 29 March 1865 he was reappointed commander of the Department of Western Virginia and East Tennessee. Following the Army of Northern Virginia's surrender at Appomattox Court House on 9 April, Echols led a band of cavalrymen who escorted Confederate president Jefferson Davis from Salisbury to Charlotte, North Carolina. Echols was paroled at Greensboro on 1 May 1865, took the amnesty oath on 13 June, and received a presidential pardon on 4 November. Restoration and Ratification After the Civil War, Echols moved to Staunton and resumed practicing law. Beginning in December 1868 he worked closely with several other prominent residents of Augusta County to broker a compromise ending Reconstruction in Virginia and easing the state's readmission to the Union. Echols helped select the delegates (later informally designated the Committee of Nine) who arranged with the president and key members of Congress for ratification of a new state constitution that restored voting rights for former Confederates and that guaranteed suffrage rights for African American men. In November 1877 Augusta County voters elected Echols to the House of Delegates, where he chaired the Committee on Militia and Police and sat on the Committees on Asylums and Prisons and on Finance. An opponent of readjusting the state debt, he won reelection in 1879, this time also representing Staunton. Echols continued on the Committees on Asylums and Prisons and on Finance and joined the Committee on Banks, Currency and Commerce. He was a Democratic presidential elector at large in 1880. He had served on the VMI board of visitors from 1858 to 1861, and in June 1869 he was appointed to the board of trustees of Washington College, on which he sat until his death. Echols became receiver and general manager of the Chesapeake, Ohio and Southwestern Railroad Company and president of the National Valley Bank of Staunton. Because of his duties in the former position, he spent a good deal of time in Louisville, Kentucky, working closely with the railroad magnate Collis Potter Huntington. Echols's wife died on 6 October 1874, and sometime before June 1880 he married Mary Cochran Reid, a widow from New York City with three children. They had no children. John Echols died of Bright's disease, a kidney ailment, at the home of his son in Staunton on 24 May 1896. He was buried in Thornrose Cemetery, in that city.

Since Dr. John CLARKE, the first settler of Newport, and his brother, Carew CLARKE, both died childless, their brother, Joseph CLARKE, who lieds here, alone perpetuated the worth name. It is to be lamented that no inscribed tombstone guards his remains. From what I can gather, I am of the opinion that here also lies the dust of Tobias SAUNDERS, one of the first settlers and magistrates of the town. Among the last persons, perhaps the very last, here buried, was an honored schoolmaster of the former century, Mr. Thomas SLAUTERY. His death occurred early in the present century.] CLARKE GROUND (2): Southeast from the Rhodes Ground, in the adjoining field, and about five rods west from Potter Hill road, uninclosed, and distinguished only by rubble-stones, are about twenty-five graves. We are told that here lie the remains of persons bearing the came of CLARKE. In a former generation this ground was much larger that at present; the plow has invaded the sacred bounds. CLARKE GROUND (3): This lies in the eastern portion of the town, on the land of Mr. Arnold SAUNDERS, near half-way betweenthe residence of Mr. Saunders and the residence of Mr. Thier J. CRANDALL, in a meadow. It is uninclosed, and thickly overgrown by wild plum brush. The head-stones are unlettered. Her lie, says reprot, the remains of Ichabod CLARK, and the remains of his father; alsot the remains of his wife Polly CLARK; also the remains of his son, Ichabod CLARK, and his wife, Mary CLARK. CLARK GROUND (4): This burying-place is situated in the northern portion of the town, on the estate of Weeden CLARK, Esq., about twenty rods northwest of Mr. C's residence, in a meadow, and is without inclusure. Here are numberous graves, only a part of which have inscribed stones. William CLARK, died March 25, 1822, age 72. Eunice (wife of William CLARK), died March 16, 1823, age 75. Amelia (wife of Col. Weeden CLARK), died Dec 23, 1830, age 32. Hezekiah LANPHEAR, died May 31, 1855, age 73. Deborah (wife of Hezekiah LANPHEAR), died Oct 22, 1836, age 50. Barsheba (wife of Daniel BURDICK), died Feb. 14, 1819, in her 36th year. Hannah (daughter of Daniel & Barsheba BURDICK), died Jan. 19, 1843, in her 29th year. William Clark (son of Daniel & Barsheba BURDICK), died Dec. 4, 1840, in his 29th year. Caroline (wife of William I. CORY), died Jan 4, 1844, in her 30th year. Without inscribed stone: Dr. William Vincent, born March 31, 1729, died Jul 19, 1807. | Maxson, Rev John (I23510)

| 899 | A Civil War story from article by Dr. Philip Shriver This Lotie Moon is actually Cynthia Charlotte Moon, daughter of Robert Moon & Cynthia Ann Sullivan. "We must focus attention on Charlotte "Lottie" Moon. Charlotte, nicknamed Lottie, was one of three sisters and two brothers in the Moon family. They lived adjacent to the Miami campus, initially in the home that was occupied until last year by the Beta Theta Pi headquarters. Then they moved several doors down east on High Street to what is still called the Lottie Moon house, on the corner of University and High, across the street from the guest cottage of this university. Let's simply say Lottie Moon, her sisters, and her two brothers, with Virginia and Tennessee in their backgrounds, along with their parents remained loyal to the South when the split came in 1861 between North and South and the Civil War erupted. Both Moon boys would serve in the Confederate armed forces, one in the navy, one in the army. One of Lottie Moon's sisters, like Lottie, would serve as an espionage agent, but only Lottie would really reach top stature as the skilled Mata Hari of her generation. For me there are two favorite memories of Lottie during the war. The first came in October, 1862, when Lottie attended a meeting of espionage agents in Toronto, Canada for gathering of information. Lottie then returned to the States. Meaning to get to the Confederacy, she presented herself in Washington, D.C., at the Office of the Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton. She told the Secretary that she was an English noble-woman, that her name was the Lady Hull, who had come all the way from Britain to take baths in the warm waters of Virginia, only to find there was a war on. How could she possibly get to the other side of the front lines to get into those warm waters to treat her ailing joints, to get relief from the rheumatism and the arthritis which so badly crippled her? The Secretary, totally persuaded that Lottie was what she presented herself to be, felt compassion. He told Lottie that it just so happened that President Lincoln himself was going the next day to inspect the troops in the front lines, just to the east of Richmond. She could ride in the President's personal carriage with Abraham Lincoln, down to the lines. He would even give her a note to assure safe passage through the lines and on to the warm springs of Virginia for treatment. The next day, there was Oxford's Lottie Moon seated next to the President of the United States, riding in the latter's personal carriage, and across from her the Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton. As the carriage rumbled on through the hills of northern Virginia, Lady Hull, exhausted from her long trip over to this new world, fell asleep, or so it seemed. As she dozed on, with audible sounds of slumber periodically escaping from her lips, the President and the Secretary of War began to become less and less discreet in their comments about what needed to be done in the war in the next few weeks. Before long they were divulging the most confidential information, and there was Lottie Moon absorbing it all as she feigned slumber. They arrived at the front lines, and Lottie, with the note, passed on through to see Jefferson Davis himself. She delivered to the South the important information, which for months thereafter cost the North dearly in terms of actions that were anticipated by Confederate troops even before they occurred, resulting in defeat after defeat for Northern troops. It was because of this that Stanton and Lincoln finally agreed that they'd been duped--that Lady Hull had been in fact a Confederate agent, and they came to know that she was Lottie Moon. Secretary Stanton himself put a price of $10,000 on her head, dead or alive. [Cont'd Mother Orianna Barclay] The scene shifts. I'll not go into detail. I'll simply say that when Lottie Moon was growing up she had a score or more of suitors in this small place. She really wanted to marry James Clark, a fellow Virginian and Miami graduate who had gone into a career in law and [who] was somewhat older than the rest. She finally agreed to marry a younger man closer to her age, Lieutenant Ambrose Burnside of Liberty, Indiana. Lieutenant Burnside and Lottie set the date for the wedding, June 21, 1848. This was some years before the war. On that day, before a full assemblage in the church, when the minister asked Ambrose if he would take Lottie to be his wife, he nodded and said he would. [The minister] turned to Charlotte, Lottie, and asked if she would take Ambrose to be her husband. She looked at the tall young lieutenant beside her, shook her head defiantly side to side, and said "No, Sir-eee Bob, I won't!" There at the alter she had changed her mind. She really wanted James Clark, not Ambrose Burnside. The scene shifts to April, 1863. In those fifteen years Lottie had married James Clark, and now she was Lottie Moon Clark, engaged in espionage against the North. In April, 1863 she made her way to Cincinnati hoping to cross the river into Kentucky, disguised now as an Irish scrubwoman. She was bound, she said, for Lexington, to visit her boy who had been injured in combat and needed a mother's love. A young private, standing his first watch, said he did not have authority to let her through. She asked who did, and he said, "The general." Said Lottie, "Take me to the general." The private did. They went up the stairs to an office on the second floor. They knocked on the door, and a voice called out, "Come in." In they walked to behold, seated behind the desk in general's stars, Ambrose E. Burnside. He was now in command of the defense of southern Ohio, southeastern Indiana, and northern Kentucky. She could be Lady Hull, using words in the best English, and no interruption. But now, as an Irish scrubwoman, the Irish dialect left her as she tried to tell the general why she needed a pass to see her wounded son in the hospital in Lexington. After several false starts General Burnside recognized who he was confronting. He said, "Lottie, I know who you are." Despite her protestations he insisted he knew who she was, and finally she agreed. Yes, she was Lottie. The general could have had her shot or hung, but there was still a spark. He agreed instead to place her under house arrest at the Burnet house in Cincinnati if she would forgo any further espionage service for the South in the remainder of the war. She agreed, and she lived out the war in Cincinnati under house arrest. We still have, across the street from this campus, the Lottie Moon House, attesting that one of the South's three foremost spies of the Civil War called Oxford home. | Moon, Cynthia Charlotte (I53283)
