And after shee was married to this man, carried a considerable Estate with her to the value of £40 or £50, but since his decease is left in a very helpless Condition; having but £6 allowed In Moveable estate, with the third of the Land for life, which will not yield above 20 Shillings per Annum, which is but a very small matter to maintain me, having a young child left By Joseph Phelps, my deceased husband, to be brought up out of it.

Two books that I do not have acess to. It does say that there is no proof that the Ruttans in Lorraine are the same line as the Ruttans in America.

| 1374 | A marriage record shows that John O'killea and Hannah Eldredge married 18 Feb 1719. The O'Killea book states that she was the daughter of Robert Eldred and Elizabeth Nickerson. Robert's estate inventory was dated 1/18/1883. His death seems to be too early for her birth. Online trees have her born in either 1692 or 1700, Both dates after robert Eldredge died. I suspect she may have been a granddaughter of Robert Eldredge. There are trees that show Hannah as a daughter of Jehosophat Eldred, probable son of William Eldred, a brother to Robert. it has her born 1690. Jehosophat's will in 1732 does not mention Hannah, although it names the other children. | Eldridge, Hannah (I6706)

| 1380 | A very authoritative treatment of George Allen can be found in the "Puritan Migration Project" at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Allen-958 The following writeup has been copied from: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~jacmac/allen.htm George Allen, the immigrant ancestor of many of the Allen families found in America today, arrived in Massachusetts Bay Colony on 6 May 1635 from England. George's name, along with the names of those he emigrated with (106 in all), was discovered on a list of passengers who departed from Weymouth, England for the New World on 20 March 1635. Unfortunately, the name of the ship they traveled aboard has never been determined. This party, which was under the leadership of the Rev. Joseph Hull, was granted leave to settle at Wessaguscus Plantation on 8 July 1635 by the General Court at Boston. Wessaguscus was soon given municipal rights, at which time it was renamed Weymouth, and its inhabitants were allowed representation in the General Court at Boston. Although it is not known for sure, George Allen may have been born in either Somersetshire, or Dorsetshire, England, or have at least resided in one of these places prior to emigrating. Lending some support for this belief is the fact that the Rev. Hull, and many of the other families that emigrated with George, appear to have been from one of these shires. Although George Allen is known to have married twice while still residing in England, the name of his first wife has not been determined. His second wife, however, was a woman named Katherine. Katherine accompanied George to America, and is believed to have been the mother of his five youngest children. According to the roster of passengers making up the Hull party, Katherine was listed as being thirty years old in 1635, thereby indicating that she had probably been born in about 1605 in England. (NOTE: Although one commonly sees postings and family write-ups that indicate that our George Allen is the George Allen who married as his second wife, Katherine Starkes, on 5 November 1624 in All Hallows Church, Honey Lane, London, I know of absolutely no documentation that would support that this is the same George Allen. On the contrary, there is evidence that suggests that this George Allen was the son of Richard Allen of the Tower of London, and that he was still residing in London, England as late as 1640, when he was mentioned in his brother, Henry's, will. This George Allen is also believed to be the same George Allen who died at St. Michael Queenhithe, London on 26 March 1664. In addition to the above, it has also been accepted by some that our George Allen was the son of John Allen of Saltford in Somersetshire, England. As with the above assertion, there is absolutely no evidence that I know of to substantiate this. There is, however, strong evidence that indicates that this George Allen was still residing at Saltford in 1638, when he was involved in a court case regarding tenements in the Tything of Saltford. By 1638, our George Allen was already well established at Sandwich on Cape Cod. Aside from the fact that a person named George Allen was identified as living in Saltford, England during the 1630's, any connection to our George Allen appears to be based more on conjecture than supportable facts. The same also appears to be true regarding the assertion that our George Allen was the son of Ralph Allen of Thurcaston, England. Even though there were two individuals named Ralph Allen who were associated with our George Allen in New Plymouth Colony, I am not aware of any evidence, other than name similarity, to support this contention either). Although no records have been found to verify it, shortly after settling at Wessaguscus (Weymouth), George and his family may have moved to the village of Saugus, Massachusetts (now Lynn, Massachusetts). Sometime during the period 1637/38, however, George and his family again moved, this time to the newly organized settlement in New Plymouth Colony of Sandwich on Cape Cod. George, who was a farmer by trade, was subsequently recommended for "freeman" status in New Plymouth Colony on 5 March 1638/39, and was later admitted as such on 3 September 1639. George was later sworn in as the Constable of Sandwich on 4 June 1639, and served as Surveyor of Highways in 1640. He also served as a Committeeman for the New Plymouth Court in 1640, 1641, 1642, and 1644. George apparently died during the latter part of April 1648 at Sandwich, New Plymouth Colony, as he was subsequently buried there on 2 May 1648. George's will was later probated before the New Plymouth Court on 7 June 1648, and one year later, on 8 June 1649, his widow, Katherine, furnished an inventory of George's estate to the New Plymouth Court. Sometime after George passed away, Katherine married for a second time to a man named John Collins, who was a shoemaker in Boston. Although the identities of all of George's children have never been determined beyond all doubt, the names of eight children have been verified through various documents. In addition to these eight, it is highly probable that three other individuals, namely John, Robert, and Francis Allen, are also sons of George. Aside from those children that are known and very probable, some researchers also believe that the Joan Allen who married Clement Briggs at Dorchester in 1630/31, and the Joshua Allen who married Mary Crowell at Yarmouth in 1671, are also George's children. After spending considerable time researching these two individuals, I am not convinced that they are George’s children, and have therefore not included them in this genealogy. It should also be mentioned that the "five least children" that George referred to in his will have not been verified beyond all doubt either. However, these children, who have been interpreted by most authorities to be the children George Allen had with his second wife, Katherine, are strongly believed to be Matthew, William, Henry, Samuel, and Gideon. | Allen, George (I2320)

| 1381 | A very authoritative treatment of george Phelps can be found in the "Puritan Great Migration Project" at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Phelps-76 The birthplace in England of George Phelps is not known. It has been claimed that he arrived in 1630 on the "Mary and John", but as the first record of him in Dorchester was May 1635 it is more likely that he did not arrive on the "Mary and John". Possibly he is the passenger George P. who arrived on the "Recovery" in 1634. He was with the group which moved to Windsor with Rev. John Warham. He married first by 1638 to Philura Randall, the daughter of Phlip Randall, with whom he had 5 children. Philura died 29 Apr 1638 in Windsor. On 2 Nov 1648 he married the widow of Thomas Dewey, Frances whose maiden name is unknown, with whom he had 3 additional children. George Phelps died in Westfield 8 May 1687. George Phelps appears in the "Great Migration Begins: Series" and all the above information is from that source. The Phelps Family DNA site at http://www.phelpsdna.com/ has determined that Williams Phelps and George Phelps not only are not brothers as was previously assumed, but are not biologically related in genealogical time. | Phelps, George (I3430)

Ralph Allen, wheelwright, of Sandwich in his will of 18 Dec 1691 shows children of John, Joseph, Increase, Ebenezer, Zachariah and Patience and this other Ralph Allen was the son of George Allen-the immigrant, of Sandwich. This per The Great Migration by Robert Charles Anderson. Anderson states that Ralph Allen, Mason, is probably related in some way to George Allen, but not as son. | Allen, Ralph (I3660)

| 1386 | A very authoritative treatment of William Phelps can be found in the "Puritan Great Migration Project" at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Phelps-54 William Phelps originated in Crewkerne, Somersetshire, England. With his first wife he had 4 children in England. With his second wife Ann Dover, he had 4 children in England and 3 children in New England. He arrived on the "Mary & John" in 1630 with his wife Ann and 4 of his English children. He originally settled in Dorchester, then in 1635 moved to Windsor. William died in Windsor 14 July 1672. Ann Dover died 30 Aug 1689 in Windsor. In 1990 Myrtle S Hyde was able to find baptism records of William's children in Crewkerne. See TAG 65:161-66 for demonstration of origination in Crewkerne, as opposed to Tewkesbury where the Phelps book had William originating from. The best treatment on William Phelps appear in TAG 65:161-165 by Myrtle Stevens Hyde and "The Great Migration Begins' Series by Robert Charles Anderson. The Phelps Family DNA site at http://www.phelpsdna.com/ has determined that Williams Phelps and George Phelps not only are not brothers as was previously assumed, but are not biologically related in genealogical time. the text in this section is copied from an article in Wikipedia William Phelps (c. 1599 - July 14, 1672) was a Puritan Englishman who immigrated in 1630 to the American Colonies. He was one of the founders of both Dorchester, Massachusetts and Windsor, Connecticut, foreman of the first grand jury in New England, served most of his life in early colonial government, and played a key role in establishing the first democratic town government in the American colonies. Noted historian Henry Reed Stiles said Phelps "was one of the most prominent and highly respected men in the colony." Origins William is not from Tewksbury, despite profiles from the early 1900s to the contrary. His second marriage and children were found in the records at Crewkerne, and published in 1990.[13] The origins of William Phelps before the baptism of his son William at Crewkerne on 9 Sep. 1618, and those of the emigrants, Richard and George Phelps have stimulated much interest. The closest that anyone has so far come to Crewkerne is a family named Phelps alias Comer of Broadwindsor (Dorset) some six miles to the south. Earlier Robin Bush established that William Phelps was a clothier at Crewkerne (vol. 25, p. 50-51) and he found some Phelps entries in the parish of Merriott which immediately adjoins Crewkerne to the north-east. There was a small-scale cloth industry recorded at Merriott between about 1575 and 1697 (Victoria History of Somerset, vol. iv, p. 57), which would make the place ideal for the origin of William. No one seems to have considered Merritt before because the parish registers dod not survive before 1646. There are, however, a few earlier Bishop's Transcripts and a series of manor court books of the late 16th and early 17th century (sadly incomplete)......Although these abstracts do not provide proof positive of the origins of the Phelps emigrants, the forenames of William and Richard both occur in the records............[14] William Phelps came to Dorchester, MA, from Crewkerne, Somerset, on the "Mary & John" in 1630 with his second wife and five children. Robin Bush found the following material on Willliam Phelps in Engand, showing he had a business deal with Benjamin Bale, Sr. of Crewkerne..... The Crewkerne Grammar School accounts (DD/CSG 3/1) included a useful reference to William Phelps. In the accounts for the year ending 9 April 1627 an item was included that William Phelps, 'clothier', was to hold Chubbes tenement for nine years from All Saints last (1 Nov. 1626) for the rent of 8 pounds, paid quarterly, reserving all trees to the feoffees. Under the year ending 5 April 1630 was entered an agreement by which Thomas & Benjamin, sons of Mr. James Bale, were to take over the unexpired term which William Phelps held in Chubs tenement, confirming that it was around that time that he presumably left for New England.[15] Since the Phelps Genealogy was published in 1899, it was widely accepted that William Phelps was baptized 19 Aug. 1599 at Tewkesbury, Goucestershire, son of William and Dorothy Phelps. It was also claimed he had a brother, George (b. @ 1605) who also came to New England. William Phelps came on the "Mary & John" in 1630, with people from the West Country (Somerset, Dorset, and Devon). Tewkesbury is not in this area, but the claim that this was his home was not questioned until October 1982 , when Myrtle Stevens Hyde had an article published in TAG, Vol. 58, 1982. She presented evidence that the William Phelps (bpt. 1599) was still in Tewksbury in 1637, when he was an overseer of the will of his uncle, Edward Phelps. The wives of William Phelps have also been a mystery. Up until 1987 it was believed William Phelps had two wives, (1) Elizabeth _____ (History of Ancient Windsor, p. 563), and (2) Mary Dover, a.1638. In 1987, Joan Peel of Dartmouth, Devon, England found the marriage of an ANN DOVER to a William Phelps, 1626 in Crewkerne and this was printed in Vol. 7, p. 100 of this series. This suggested that William Phelps had three wives. There is a marriage record of a William Phelps and an Ann Law in 1618 (no day or month) in Broadwindsor, Dorset (5 m. S of Crewkerne). If this took place in January this would be 8 months before the first known child was baptized on 8 Sept. 1618. However, another TAG article appeared in July 1990, p. 161-166, by Myrtle Stevens Hyde. She found additional Phelps entries in the Crewkerne records including the burial of a Mary, 'wife of William Phelps" on 13 Aug. 1626. She concluded this was his first wife. He married Ann Dover three months and one day later. Finally, when Hyde could not find a death for Ann (Dover) Phelps, nor a marriage record for William Phelps and Mary Dover, she concluded that the latter never existed. She surmised that the names of the first two wives, Mary and Ann somehow became Mary Dover."[16] Life in New England William arrived in Dorchester aboard the Mary and John in 1630 and was admitted as a freeman on 18 May 1631. He moved from Dorchester to Windsor in the winter of 1635, and was second on the list of men who came from Dorchester church to Windsor with Mr. Warham. He appears in town records in various positions in both Dorchester and Windsor from the early 1630s until the late 1650s: Deputy for Dorchester to Massachusetts Bay General Court, 9 May 1632, 6 May 1635 [ MBCR 1:95, 145].

Committee to organize expedition against Pequots, 26 August 1639 [ CCCR 1:32]. War Committee (Windsor), May 1653, October 1654 [ CT Civil List 43]. [17] William lived in Windsor, three-quarters of a mile northwest of Broad Street on the road to Poquonock.[18] "He purchased land from Sehat, an Indian sachem, of Windsor, for four overcoats and he sold some of his land at 12 pence per acre. Not being able to prove title and payment, he paid a second time, the legal tender being wampum."[19] He was granted a lot in (Windsor) 1635, 100 ft. wide, next to Bray Rossiter, west of the Rivulet. This land was flooded in 1638-9, and he moved to higher ground, above the First Meadow, the most northerly lot on the west side of the Rivulet. He had purchased ths land from a sachem in 1635. This land later passed to his son, Timothy. He had a "plantation lot" east of the Connecticut River, 560 ft. wide, south of George Hull and north of Thomas Holcomb. In 1635 he was one of the eight men, including Roger Ludlow, chosen by the Court of Massachusetts, to govern the new Connecticut colony for the first year. In 1641, the General Court appointed he and Mr. Webster of Hartford, to recommend how "lyers" were to be punished. After this, the court punished "lyers" with fines or "body correction." He was a Magistrate, 1639-1643 and 1656-1662. He died at age 73 and was survived by his second wife and children, William, Jr. (age 52) of Windsor, husband of Sarah Pinney, Nathaniel (age 45) of Northampton, Mass., husband of widow, Elizabeth Copley, Joseph (age 43) of Simsbury, husband of Hannah Newton, Timothy (age 33) of Windsor, husband of Mary Griswold and Mary (age 28) wife of Thomas Barber, Jr. of Simsbury.[20] Text References 1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 # 1 William Phelps, in Phelps, Oliver Seymour, and Andrew T.

The immigrant did not have a known son Richard. - The mother of the William Phelps baptized Aug 1599 named her brother-in-law Edward Phelps in her will.

Windsor was the first permanent English settlement in Connecticut. Local indians granted Plymouth settlers land at the confluence of the Farmington River and the west side of the Connecticut River, and Plymouth settlers (including Jonathan Brewster, son of William) built a trading post in 1633. But the bulk of the settlement came in 1635, when 60 or more people led by Reverend Warham arrived, having trekked overland from Dorchester, Massachusetts. Most had arrived in the New World five years earlier on the ship "Mary and John" from Plymouth, England. The settlement was first called Dorchester, and was renamed Windsor in 1637.

| 1396 | According to Genealogies at the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick, Canada Sarah was married 1st to William Lounsbury and 2nd to Alexander Campbell and then moved to Ontario. However the Brant County, Ontario Gen web at http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~onbrant/biosbran1.htm has a biography of her son Morris that shows that it was William and Sarah (not Alexander) who moved from New Brunswick and all children are Lounsburys. So it would seem that either Alexander Campbell was the first husband, who did not move to Ontario or it is simply in error and he was not a husband. See Morris Lounsbury (b. 1831) for full writeup. | Corey, Sarah (I5609)

| 1397 | According to "Families of old Fairfield" Thomas died 1658, wife's name unknown. He had three children including our Samuel who married Rebecca Odell. This is quote from a website which is quite interesting, and is mostly, although not completely confirmed: (http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nancyelder/Morehouse.htm) Thomas Morehouse, recognized as the emigrant ancestor of most of the American Morehouse families, was in Watertown, Massachusetts, about 1635; at Wethersfield, Connecticut, 1640; at Stamford, Connecticut, in 1641, where he was one of the original settlers who purchased the townsite from the Indians for one hundred bushels of corn. He came from Yorkshire, England, with the migration of Puritans conducted by Sir Richard Saltonstall. He settled permanently at Fairfield, Connecticut, prior to 1653 and became prominent in its development--owning the tide-water mill and being sent as a member to the General Court (Legislature) at Hartford. He left four sons--Samuel, Thomas, Jonathan and John--who at an early date became the heads of the numerous branches and descendants which settled in New York, New Jersey, Ohio and the West. Thomas Morehouse, the first, died at Fairfield in 1658, leaving a will. It is estimated that over two hundred of his descendants served in the Revolutionary war. Partial confirmation of the above story includes NEHGR Vol98, P75, Vol49 P475 and Vol113 P301. And "The Early Settlement of Stamford, Conn 1641-1700" 1990 by Jeanne Majdalany. The corn story is a little misleading; The New Haven Colony had earlier purchased the land from the Indians for 100 bushels of corn and then later sold the same land to the group of Puritans who would first settle there. This entry from "The History of Fairfield" by Elizabeth Hubbell Schenck 1889 discusses his will, although I do not have a transcript of the will: Thomas Morehouse was at Wethersfield, says Savage, in 1640. He was among the first to receive a grant of seven acres in Stamford. He is found at Fairfield before 1653, where he had purchased the house & home-lot of John Barlow on the Ludlow Square. He was granted land by the town on the west side of the Uncoway River & present Black Rock Bridge, where he ran a grist mill on the creek which empties into the river between Seely's Neck & the Old Mill hill He m Isabella d of Ralph Keeler of Norwalk. His will is dated 8 Aug 1658 in which he leaves 1/3 of his estate to his wife Isabell; a double portion to his eldest son Samuel, homestead, mill & mill-lot, which he was not to sell without the consent of the town; & further distributes his estate among his sons Thomas, John, Jonathan & ds Mary & Ann He mentions daughter Hannah, to whom he had aIready given a full portion The marriage to Isabel Keeler is an apparent error as his son Thomas married Isabel Keeler, the daughter of Ralph Keeler. Jacobus, in History and Genealogy of the Families of Old Fairfield, Volume 1, identifies Thomas Sr'.s wife as Isabel Unk. Widow Isabel in his 1658 will. And son Thomas Jr.'s first wife as ___, eldest daughter of Ralph Keeler. (cited also in TAG: 80: 2005: p. 186) | Morehouse, Thomas (I5847)

| 1400 | According to family tradition William E was an inventor who had a patent for an improvement to the breech-loading cannon. Unable to sell or otherwise make money off his patent in the United States he traveled to Prussia and sold his idea for an unknown sum of money to Krupp Manufacturing, the well-known arms manufacturer in Germany. It is said that due to the cold weather, Mr. Krupp gave William E a heavy winter coat with gold buttons. After he returned to the United States, his brother Thomas stole his gold buttons! (names may have been changed in the retelling, we do not show a bother named Thomas). BIRTH: Based on the Federal and State Census records William E Osborne was born 1801 to 1803 in Connecticut. (The handwriting on the 1865 New York State Census which could be Canada is obviously an error). His father Israel Osborne was living in East Windsor, Connecticut from 1796 or earlier to at least 1811 based on East Windsor Real Estate records). An 1855 passport record states that is was 50 years old and born in East Windsor, Connecticut (which would imply born 1805). MARRIAGE: First wife- Unknown. We only know there is a first wife by the 1865 New York State Census where he states he was married 2 times. Second wife- Ann Eliza Unknown. Marriage date by 1855 for birth of William and certainly by 1859 (based on William E and Ann E signing off on a real estate deed in connection with his fathers estate). Her maiden name may be McPherson. Her son in law listed Eliza McPherson as his first wife (who passed away) on a naval pension document. His first wife was Lida Osborne. Perhaps Eliza was Lida’s correct name. Perhaps Mcpherson was her mother’s name at the time Lida was born. Which could indicate that Ann Eliza already had Lida before she married William E. (according to the New York State Census Ann Eliza was on her first marriage and William his second.) Also, on the 1865 New York State Census, a sister Emeline Mcfeeson (McPherson??) is living in the Osborne household. Emeline being 39 years younger than William and 14 years younger than Ann Eliza was probably the sister of Ann Eliza, not William. DEATH: after 1878. 1878 is the last entry we find for William Osborne in the Rochester City Directory. We can find no record of William E Osborne after this date.

We are unable to locate William E Osborne on this census. CHILDREN: Any children with his unknown first wife are unknown. Lida b. 1843 may have been the child of Ann Eliza before they married. William b. 1855 was probably the child of William E (in particular the middle name of Hayden would seem to indicate he was named by Israel Osborn (after Israel’s mother Anna Hayden) and his second wife. The 1865 census listed that Ann Eliza who was on her first marriage had 4 children. Considering the 25 year age difference between William E and Ann E, the 4 children may have been William’s children or a combination of William’s and Ann’s children. It is therefore a possibility that William had two or three children that we do not know about. The theory that William H and Lida are step-siblings helps us make sense of the marriage of William H’s daughter (Lillian) to Lida’s son (Edgar). A fufirst cousin marriage does not seem correct of people not living in a rural and/or isolated area. Also, the 25 year age difference makes it less likely that a 40 year old William married a 15 year old, which would be necessary for Lida to be his daughter. OTHER NOTES: It should also be noted that William E's grandparents John Hayden and Anna Trumbull were first cousins. Also, his great grandparents Ammi Trumbull and Sabra Gaylor were 2nd cousins. | Osborne, William E (I5628)
