Notes:

www.pennlaird.com/eggleston/iframe.html states that Joseph was baptized on 11 Aug 1782 at the Windsor Church, and died at Cortlandville, Chenango County, NY in 1850. He married Hannah Patrick, who sometimes is listed as Harriet GOODRICH of Colebrook, Connecticut on 14 Oct 1802. She died in 1850 or 1856 at Cortlandville, Chenango County, NY.

In 1808 they moved to Sherburne, Chenango County, NY - and about 1822 they moved to Cortlandville. He was a farmer.

This site also states that their son Hiram married, but had no children. This is obviously not true as Hiram is listed in the 1850, 1860 and 1870 census with his wife and children.

Joseph married Hanna Patrick on 14 Oct 1802 in New Windsor, CT. Hanna was born on 28 Jun 1782 in Colebrook, Litchfield, CT; died in 1850. [Group Sheet] [Family chart]

Notes:

Barnabas Many Notes Husband (Barnabas Many, John, Jean Magny) Wife (Anne 'Nancy' Everitt, Robert) Barnabas Many, born in 1735, was the son of John Many (Jean Magny) and Ann Wines. A descendant, Charles M. Many, in 1914, wrote that Barnabas Many was born on Ann Street in New York City, in the rear of the old Herald building. It is believed tha t his eldest child, James, later lived at that location. Barnabas's parents died when he was young and he was placed under the guardianship of an uncle. When he became of age he took what money was due him ti-om his father's estate and left the city. He went to Orange County, New York, where he bough t a farm near Craigsville in Blooming Grove Township. . In 1760 the twenty-five year old Barnabas eloped with fourteen year old Ann Everitt, nicknamed 'Nancy', the daughter of Robert Everitt and Ester Butterfield. A number of stories have been handed down concerning this elopement. One is that Robert was so vexed at the marriage that he severely whipped Nancy, whereupon Barnabas sued his new father-in-law and collected dan1ages of$100. It appears that Robert Everitt was a loyal Tory, supporting strong ties to England, while Barnabas supported the rising trend of American independence. For these political differences Barna bas was unwelcome in the Everitt home at Hamtonburg. By the time of Robert's will, dated September 28, 1781, these differences must have been resolved. It mentions paying out a loan ti-om Barnabas 'Maney' of 100 pounds, and to 'teach my grandson John 'Manna' the art of shoe making or weaving, and ifhe remain with him (Daniel Everitt) till of age, 30 pounds, two suits of good clothes and a horse.' Nancy, too, is mentioned in the will. In Blooming Grove Township of Orange County, New York, Barnabas and his child bride set up housekeeping and fanning which was then in the 'town of Cornwall'. There is a deed dated 1770, filed in 1775, ti-om Abijah Wells of the town of Goshen (Oran ge County) to Barnabas Manny, 'ofComhill', for property in Comhill precinct, which could be for the farm on which Barnabas raised his large family of eleven children. He was taxed in Cornwall precinct between 1765 and 1775. Besides these taxes, Barnabas was taxed on 320 acres in Little Britain township of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in 1779. Since this was about 150 miles to the south-west ti-om his home place, one wonders the reason for having this large land po ssession. Did it come to him as a result of the Revolutionary War? By then the Revolutionary War was in full action. In 1775 Barnabas had signed the Articles of Association in Cornwall precinct, which indicates his support of the common efforts to get the British to stop their acts of arbitrary and offensive taxation, and retaliate against their attack when firing on Lexington and Concord. In that same year Barnabas served on the Committee of Safety and Observation, the planning organization to determine how to handle the growing problems. Barnabas further proved his support of the Revolution with action. On May 10, 1777, he entered Lieutenant Joseph Conkling's Company, Colonel Jesse Woodhull's Regiment, in General George Clinton's Brigade of Militia. This company was ordered into service to guard John Carpenter's powder mill in Orange County ti-om May 4th to July 1 st. Barnabas 'Manna' later drew four pounds, thirteen shillings and two pence for one month and twenty-two days service, with anothe r four pounds and eight shillings for rations. Following his military service and the Revolution, Barnabas returned to his farm and family. The censuses of 1790 to 1810 show him there with his family. The 1790 Census says he has one slave. His son Barnabas apparently took over the farm, for Barnabas junior's name appears next to his mother's in the 1820 census. Anne 'Manney' is listed as being over 45. Barnabas had died April 28, 1815, eighty years of age. According to Jane Church, he died suddenly. He had finished hi s day's work, taken supper and retired to bed. Anne was reading a chapter in the Bible and, hearing his groan, went to the bed and found him dead. He was buried in the family cemetery about one hundred feet ti-om the house. When Anne died seven years later, she was laid there at his side. Their fifty-five years of marriage had been extremely fruitful. Barnabas was survived by seven of his eleven children; fifty-eight grandchildren (about thirty more were born after his death) and about thirty-seven great-grandchildren.

Barnabas married Anne Nancy Everitt about 1760. Anne (daughter of Robert Everitt and Esther Butterfield) was born about 1746 in Hamptonburg, Orange, New York, USA; died on 10 Oct 1822 in Craigsville, Orange, New York, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family chart]
