INDEX

[47351]

Daniel and Elizabeth are proposed as parents of Israel by https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Kenney-5. Find A Grave memorial 179095467 offers:
Dan Kenney Jr. was born on 19 Oct 1705 in Boxford Ma, and is also listed in Salem births for the same date. All the subsequent births of his younger siblings were recorded in Boxford as well (*except for brother Jacob), BUT all of their baptisms (including Jacob's) were listed in Salem Vital Records, except Dan Jr's was listed as a birth for some reason. At that time, the area of Boxford that they occupied became Middleton in 1728, and today the Kenney Rd. area of Middleton is essentially where they lived.
Daniel Jr. received from his father Dan Sr. 50 pounds to buy out his share of family claim, and the recorded Essex county deed reads "for his encouragement" on 6th Feb 1726. He then purchased 31 acres in Sutton from Isaac Nichols of Sutton, on the same day for 70 pounds. That deed is recorded in the Suffolk Co deeds as Worcester Co was not created until 1731. That sale was officially recorded on 21 June 1727. When Dan Jr. actually moved and began living there is not known, but he married Elizabeth Stockwell on 27 Aug 1727 in Sutton.
Based on available Early Vital Records, Daniel fathered a total of 12 children, 10 of them living to at least early adulthood. Four of his sons served in the French and Indian War, (Dan 3rd, William, Israel and Asa,) with two (William and Dan the 3rd) paying the ultimate sacrifice. Two other sons served during the American Revolution (Archelaus and Reuben) as well as seven grandsons. Two of Dan Jr.'s male offspring (Israel and Asa) also brought the Kenney (that quickly changed spelling in essentially one generation to Kinney) name and lineage to Maugerville/Burton in what was then the Colony of Nova Scotia in 1767, preceding the arrival of the Loyalist's by 16 years, and then that area became New Brunswick Canada. While Asa and his one known son didn't survive long enough to spread the Kinney name, Israel's progeny have spread throughout Canada, back into the US and the world.
There is no known citation listing the date of Daniel's death, it is not found in the Vital Records. However, we can narrow it to probably sometime during June of 1753 based on the following info. Daniel Jr.'s last purchase of a very small piece of land abutting the land he and his family currently lived on was written on 22 May 1753. His wife Elizabeth petitioned the Worcester Court on 21 June 1753 for their oldest son Daniel "Jr." (we would consider him Daniel the 3rd) to be the administrator of the estate, as Dan died intestate.
I do not know for sure where he is buried, but I strongly suspect that he is in Sutton Center. In the accounting of Dan's final expenses that his son Dan Jr. (3rd) provided back to the court, there is a line item for 3 pounds and 6 shillings for his coffin and digging the grave but no mention of to whom and where. Knowing the area and the general descriptions provided in the deeds of the lands he lived on as I do, there are really only 1-3 choices. The most plausible and probable is that he could be buried in the Sutton town center cemetery as he was one of the town's earlier settlers, and typically has the generally oldest stones/earliest deaths in town. It is remotely possible that he could be in the West Millbury cemetery that is near what was known as the North Parish of Sutton, and later became Millbury in 1813. He and Elizabeth were initial participants in the creation and then members of the Congregational church's 2nd Parish Church near there in the mid 1740's, and at that time closer to where he lived, But I have a problem with that from the dates of the 1st known interments not happening there till about 1775. Last limited possibility is just a bit further to the west side in Sutton is the Waters/Goffe cemetery, again somewhat closer to the area Dan lived in, but most stones in there are either broken at the base and are gone, or were always just chunks of granite without etching, we will probably never know. Placing him in the Town Center cemetery is probably the most logical location

Robert NELSON

[11677]

1620 - 4 AUG 1698

Family 1 : Mary TEMPLE
  1. +Margaret NELSON
  2. +John NELSON

INDEX

[11677] Robert was a member of Gray's Inn, London - i.e. a barrister. Douglas Richardson wrote in 2006: "I show that a Mary, wife of Robert Nelson, of St. Margaret's Westminster, gentleman, was suspected of being a papist in 1678 [Reference: Jeaffreson, Middlesex County Records, 4 (1892): 112]. I believe this is probably Mary Temple, wife of Robert Nelson, Esq. If so, I doubt that Mary (Temple) Nelson died in 1669, as stated in Mr. Johnson's book. All the same, I learned a long time ago that one has to be extremely careful identifying people in London records, as there are often multiple individuals with the same wive's names living at the same time in London. As such, Mr. Johnson could well be right that Mary (Temple) Nelson died in 1669. If so, then the Mary Nelson who was a suspected papist in 1678 would obviously be a different woman. Mr. Johnson is correct in stating that there is a will for a Robert Nelson, Esq., of St. Anne's, Westminster, Middlesex dated September 1696, probated 4 August 1698. Checking online databases, it appears that this man is generally thought to be the father of the immigrant, John Nelson. The probate act book, however, states that Robert Nelson was a resident of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, Middlesex. If so, this Robert Nelson was probably living in St. Anne's in 1696, when he made his will, and living in St. Martin-in-the-Fields in 1698 when he died. The testator names his wife, Susan (not Susanna), and his mother, Helen Nelson. No children are named in the will. In a short codicil, he mentions of judgement of £1200 "from my son," whose name is not given. Also, it is unclear if the mother, Helen Nelson, was living at the date of this will. The testator mentions that he was heir at law to a house in Long Acre in Middlesex, which might well have belonged to his mother. It's possible that Mr. Johnson is correct that this Robert Nelson is the father of the immigrant, John Nelson, of Boston, Massachusetts. But, if so, it is strange that Robert Nelson is not mentioned in the will of his other son, Temple Nelson, proved in 1671. Temple Nelson's will mentions only his sister, Margaret Nelson, his kinsman, John Fiennes, Esq. (whose mother was a Temple), and Thomas Fiennes son of his kinsman, John Fiennes. I have yet to determine how or why Margaret Nelson, daughter of Robert and sister of Temple, came to Virginia and married Rev. Thomas Teackle, of Accomack County, Virginia. However, I note among her descendants there is a Temple Nelson Robins, which name is highly suggestive. There was supposedly a Provis Nelson who resided in early Accomack County. This individual is identified in some databases as the brother of Robert Nelson who married Mary Temple. If so, then Margaret (Nelson) Teackle may have come to Virginia to live with her uncle's family."

Elizabeth PALMER

[40641]

1826 - 8 JAN 1953

Family 1 : Moses GRABLE
  1.  Minerva GRABLE

INDEX

[40641] Find A Grave Memorial 120585412 offers: "After the death of her first husband, Moses Grable, Elizabeth married Ansel Howland Markham (1823-1880.) Shortly thereafter, however, Elizabeth died. Her children, Minerva and Moses Grable were sent to live with their uncle Joseph and aunt Susan (Susanna Cox) Grable. Minerva died at age 16 in 1864, and Moses died at age 17 in 1866." Ancestry.com offers: "Palmer Name Meaning - English: from Middle English, Old French palmer, paumer (from palme, paume ‘palm tree’, Latin palma), a nickname for someone who had been on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Such pilgrims generally brought back a palm branch as proof that they had actually made the journey, but there was a vigorous trade in false souvenirs, and the term also came to be applied to a cleric who sold indulgences."
