Subject: Watkins family traced back to early Jamestown, USA

Our branch of the Watkins family came over to early Jamestown. My
parents, Marguerite and Gordon Watkins have the records.
MargWat@aol.com There were a number of early Quakers in colonial
Virginia. Going back through a female ancestor, many of the Watkins are
directly descended from Pocahontas through her son by John Rolphe.
Carol Watkins, MD
According to Stutesman, there is no evidence connecting this Henry
Watkins to the James Watkins who came to Jamestown in that settlements
first Winter 1607/08, even though it is common for VA Watkins to claim
such a connection. We find him first, a landless man, in the middle 1600's
in Henrico County, VA. He struggled there for a half century to aquire land
so that his sons would have a better start. He took a dangerous stand for
persecuted Quakerism. Virgina law, with some variations during the 17th
century, provided 50 acres "headright" for everyone who came to settle in
the colony, or to the person who paid for the transportation of the settler.
In June 1664, a grant of land in Henrico County was made to "Mr. John
Beauchamp and Mr. Richard Cocke SR.",for their importation of 60 people
including Henry Watkins. This is not absolute proof that Henry didn't come
from the Jamestown Watkins because land developers in those days were
often dishonest, and names of men born in VA often appeared on
headrights lists. The names of 60 people appearing on the 1664 list also
appeared on the 1652 grant list submitted by Richard Cocke. Richmond
stands at the falls of the James River, the limit for travel of salt water
vessels. In 1673, Augustine h Herman's map of the area shows only 16
white inhabitations above the site of Richmond. In June 1679 the Henrico
CountyCourt ordered Henry Watkins to fit out 3 men in hourse and arms it
is proff that at this time he was a free landowner in the "Turkey Island
District". There are court record that both Henry and his daughter Eliza
held to the Quaker faith despite official persecution. Henry aquired a large
piece of land near te western edge of settlement along the Chickahominy
river and 60 acres near his old farm in the Turkey Island Creek watershed.
On 25Jan1692 he divided it up between his five sons, William, Joseph,
Edward, Henry, and Thomas, as a gift.

504 Catherine's last name is spelled Hameson in the marital index.

Catherine is buried next to her brother, John Harmison; and his two daughters, Nancy and Mary Harmison. Catherine's gravestone gives a date of death of 1856; however, evidence is that her husband, Samuel, married a Nancy Barton on August 13, 18 52 in St. Joseph, Indiana so its possible the date of death is wrong.

Catherine's husband, Samuel Smith, went to Kansas with his second wife in 1870. There were five teams and wagons. Sam's, his son, Martin, John Robinson, Bill Harmison and one other. Later they moved back to Grinnell, Iowa and many stayed ther e. Samuel Smith moved on to South Dakota.

516 Cholera Pandemic in Erckartswiller.

A pandemic of cholera went through France around 1832-33-34-35-? The records seem to indicate a number of people dying during that time, especially young people. Jean Pierre's half-brother, Georges, lost 4 children plus his second wife during this time. In all, his 6 children and 2 wives died around this time. Georges later visited Jean Pierre in Allen County. Georges stayed with my Great-grandmother Catharina Schlemmer Jackemeyer in the home on Seiler Road that she and her husband, Conrad Jackemeyer, built. pilaukikuchi originally shared this

In 1841, the first election was held in Monroe Twp. They were voting on the Justice of the Peace. Only thirteen men voted. Peter?s vote was challenged, for he was a native of Germany. The vote was a tie. After much dispute, Peter went home and returned with the legal proof of his right to vote. His vote broke the tie. Noah Clem was the first Justice of the Peace for Monroe Twp.



Written by Dolly Kikuchi-Jackemeyer-Schlemmer. Jean PIERRE Schlemmer was born on 14 Jan 1795, as his age is given in his children's birth records. He was born in the village Erckartswiller in the mountains of what is now southeast France. When Pierre was born the area was under German control, thus the mixture of French and German records. In 1836 the population of Erckartswiller was 327; in 2005 it was 212. In 2009 I visited the village with my daughter Kristina. Pierre's name must have been Johannes Peter Schlemmer in German, as it is Jean Pierre Schlemmer in French. Pierre signed his name as Johannas Schlemmer in the church records from Erckartsweiler. Peter Schlemmer and his family came to America from Germany in 1835. The Schlemmer family first settled in Stark Co., Ohio, where they stayed until 1839 when they moved to Section 21, Monroe Twp., Allen Co., IN. The property is at the corner of Lortie and Hoagland Roads. In 1841, the first election was held in Monroe Twp. They were voting on a Justice of the Peace. Only thirteen men voted. Peter's vote was challenged, for he was a native of Germany. The vote was a tie. After much dispute, Peter went home and returned with the legal proof of his right to vote. His vote broke the tie. Noah Clem was the first Justice of the Peace for Monroe Twp. In the1850 census, age 60, Pierre was living with John 18 (born in Erckartswiller), Katharina 16 (born in Ohio) and Christopher, 4 (born in IN). Note: Christopher is Peter's grandson, son of Peter's daughter Sophia Schlemmer. Peter and his wife Katharina Barbara, nee Saling, are buried on their farm, now known as the Schlemmer Cemetery. It is on the corner of Hoagland and Lortie Roads, just outside of Monroeville, IN. It is south of Monroeville and very close to Ohio. It stands next to the one room, brick Monroe Township schoolhouse, District No. 7. Its cornerstone reads 1882. Lying between the school and the house is the Schlemmer family cemetery.

Re: SCHLEMMERS in France/Germany

A researcher checked both volumes of The Alsace Emigration books and sent me following information: "In Vol. 1 I found: Schlemmer, Pierre, father of 8, born Erckartswiller, emigrated 1/1/1828 and Schlemmer, Marguerithe, born Eckartswiller, emigrated 1/1/1828. Note that the date 1/1/1828 means that the exact date wasn't known.The children are not listed.

Note from Dolly: Marguerithe was Mary Margaret Schlemmer, Pierre's younger sister. She was born in 1807 in Erkartswiller and died between 1870-1880 in Madison, St. Joseph, IN. She married Cretien Helmlinger. Cretien was baptismal sponsor for Pierre's daughter Sophie (born 1830 in Alsace-Lorraine, died in 1897 in Cape Girardo, Missouri). Her married name was Frederich.


He was born in 1795, as his age is given in his children's birth records. In1836 the population of Erckartswiller was 327. In 2005 it is 212. He signed his name as Johannas Schlemmer in the church records from Erckartsweiler. PeterSchlemme r and his family came to America from Germany in 1835.

Sophie Trena Opsahl-my Grandmother-Family History

Sophie was born Sept 8, 1886 near Cashton, Portland twsp, Monroe County, WI. She was the seventh ot eight daughters born to Peder and Maria Opsahl.

On the 14 th day of Nov 1886 she recieved Christian Baptism at the North Coon Prairie Norwegian Evangelical Lutheran Church, By Rev. H. Halverson, pastor of the church Westby, WI.

Sophie was confirmed Nov 4th 1900 according to the Rite of Confirmation specified by the Norw Lutheran Church of America.

Sophie was married August 23rd, 1903 in town of Maple Grove, Barron County, WI to Edward I Rhodes at the home of his parents Benjamin and Susan Rhodes by J Frank Hall, Moinister of the German Baptist Bretheren Church, Hillsdale, Barron, CO. WI

Ten children were born to this union, my mother being the oldest. Her sibligs are list in family tree. My mother Gladys Ethel Rhodes, just like her mom was the best mom in the world and Sophie was the most wonderful Grandmother anyone could eve r want. We always knew Grandma Sophie came from a good family. Wanting to know more about her family we traveled ti Norske Country at Cashton, Westby, and Viroqua, WI the summer of 1955, Ione and I along witha Cousin Dolores Hanson Grant and a n Aunt Lorraine Rhodes, decided it was time to find out more about our great grand parents Peder and Maria Opsahl.-so here is hte story about our ancesters.

Birth info in Family pages. Both Peder and Maria knew each other in Norway, but htey both married and had children in Norway.

First Peder, He was married to Ingaberg Jenson, they had four children. Ingaberg died in Norway. Peder along with his three children came to America in 1870 or 1871. They landed at Quebec Canada after a six week ocean trip. From Quebec they wen t to Sparta, WI, Then to Hazens Corner by wagon train. They resided on the old Martin Moen farm.

Maria at the age of twenty yrs, married Ole Haakenson in Norway in 1868. Three yrs later he passed away leaving her with two sons Albert J and (Ole) Helmer. We believe Albert's last name was Surliegh (Sorle-American) she must have been married b efore Haakenson. Leaving the younger son in Norway with a brother E. H. Gorder at Oslo, Norway. Maria's bbrother was a palace guard-master Sergent, Ole Helmer stayed in Norway. Marie and her oldest son Albert came to America, arriving in Cashton , WI in Dec 1872. In 1874 she married Peder Opsahl and settled on a farm two miles west of Cashton, where they resided until Peders death in 1891. Grandma Sophie's father Peder J. OPsahl surcummed to throat Cancer. Grandma always talked aboyut h er beloved father. (Sophie was five yrs old). Eight daughters were born to Peder and Maria.

Ole (Helmer) joined his mother and brother at Peder Opsahl's home at the age of twelve yrs, coming from Oslo, Norway, there obtaining his citizenship. Albert and Helmer took the last name of OPsahl their step-fathers, Peder was a fine respecte d person. Waht a large household of Peder's three Anton Julia, and Gina+ 2 + 8. Uncle Vick Rhodes said they call her Mary.

After Peder's death in 1893 she married Hans Hanson, residing on a farm north of Cashton. This is where Grandma grew up. Gladys Olspn a grand daughter pronounced her nam,e Ma-Ri-A. Great grandma died Feb 2, 1935. Her husband Hans died the same y r Dec 1st, Buried at Moen Cem
All of Grandma's sister were baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran Church.

524 David Good II, born in Germany about 1735, came to Pennsylvania as a young child with his parents aboard the ship Glasgow, landing at the Port of Philadelphia on 09 September 1738. According to Trinity Lutheran Church Records, Lancaster, Pennsyl vania, Volume I - 1730-1767 [Page 248], "Theobald Good [shown as Guth], married Elisabet Kilian/Killian [shown as Kilianin] from Veyl in the Palatinate, on 18 January 1756." Elisabet was born in Germany, however, little is known about her family or when they came to Pennsylvania. Possibly her brother, Johannes Kilian, is listed as a sponsor at the baptism of David and Elisabet's first child, Catharine Elisabet Good. While David Good II is listed as a resident of Windsor Township, Yor k County, Pennsylvania in 1790, sometime during 1791 the family relocated to Franklin County, Virginia, and settled on Chestnut Creek near the town of Sydnorsville, in southern Virginia, about fifteen miles south of Roanoke. The occupation of David is unknown, as is the reason for relocating from Pennsylvania to Virginia. David Good II died in 1819 in Franklin County. His wife is said to have died there also, sometime between 1815-1819. Source: Ancestry World Tree Project: Cook/Gunte r - Place of Franklin County relocation in 1790 Duncan C. Davidson 021105

Obituary from The Weekly Breeze, Monroeville, Allen County, IN, Thursday, August 25, 1898: The Oldest Settler of Monroe Township Passes Away. Philip Schlemmer died Saturday morning last, August 20th, 1898, at his residence two miles south- ,onths of affliction, in the presence of his companion and several of his children. His passing was not unexpected owing to his ailment and advanced age, therefore those who have been near and dear to him who were not present, were not i n the least surprised when his death was announced.
Mr Schlemmer was considered to be the oldest settler in Monroe township. He was born in Germany in September 1820 and came to this country with his parents when but a child having first settled in Carroll County, Ohio, where they remained unti l he arrived at the age of fifteen years. In 1835 his parents sought to seek fortunes in the west and came to Indiana and settled upon the tract of land now owned and upon the same spot where now stands the residence of Ex-trustee Christian Hoff man. Here he toiled with his parents until manhood when he took unto himself a companion andd settled down upon the tract of land where he departed this life. He was twice married, his first wife having died in 1854 and his second survives him , together with four sons and four daughters namely: George Schlemmer, of New Bremen, Ind., Philip H., Henry and Charles Schlemmer and Mrs. Christena Ehling, of Monroe township, Mrs. Catherine Siegel, of Madison township, Mrs. Lizzie M. Erhardt , of Jackson township and Marthe Garthan. It is not necessary for us to state that at the time of settling in this section with his parents thaere was no farm, fine dwellings and settlement of people such as at the present time, but on the contr ary dense forests, wild beasts and log cabins were such as the settlers of those days were compelled to contend with. But not withstanding all this, the Schlemmer family of which the deceased was one, battled on contending with their chosen lot . Miles between neighbors and miles to travel through forests and not gravel roads as today, to get to mill or a trading point. In this lonely manner they moved on until finally the country began to become more densely settled, the forests disap peared and cultivated farms instead. Prosperity and happiness beamed before them, but one by one, like the forests there become a broken link in the family and this continues from time to time until the last link of the first chain had passed ov er the river to that world from which none ever return.
During life, especially in his days, Philip Schlemmer was ever found in readiness to assist his neighbor no matter in what manner he was called upon. Especially was this the case in time of sickness or distress. He with the assistance of Henri, who s till lives, hewed from a walnut log the first coffin, dug the first grave and laid to rest the first person that died in this section of country.
Thus in conclusing the BREEZE can only say that the one who has just ended his labors of 78 years has left behind him a record that will be recalled many times by the present, and following generations. The funeral was held Sunday morning lae house and later services were conducted by his pastor and spiritual advisor, at the German Lutheran church near the home of the deceased. The remains were interred in the grave yard near the church and upon a spot of ground which he and hi s father cleared and laid out as a family burial ground many years ago.

LIEUT. COL. WALTER CHILES.

BY THE EDITOR.

He was perhaps the "Walter Chiles, merchant," who was granted
1st of March, 1638, 400 acres in Charles City county (in that
portion known afterwards as Prince George), near the falls of
the Appomattox River, "50 acres being due to him for his own
personal adventure; 50 acres for his wife, Elizabeth; 50 acres
for his son William, and 50 acres for his son Walter, and 200
acres for the transportation" to the colony of four other persons.
A second grant was made to him of 250 acres, due "for his own
personal adventure" and the transportation of four persons, 2d
May, 1638.(1)

Walter Chiles, the merchant, was perhaps the burgess from
Charles City in 1642-43, and at the session he was appointed
with Walter Austin, Rice Hooe, and Joseph Johnson and "such
others as they shall think fit to joyn them" to undertake the dis-
covery of "a new river or unknowne land, bearing west southerly
from Appomattocke River." (2)

In November, 1645, Walter Chiles represented James City
county in the House of Burgesses. (3) He was a representative

again in 1645-46, and in 1649. (1) In the Northampton records
15th June, 1652, it is stated that Walter Chiles sailed from
Rotterdam in his own ship, "The Fame of Virginia." After being
for a time in Accomac waters the ship sailed for James City,
and was pursued and captured by Capt. Robert Henfield, who
held a commission from the "Protectors of the Liberties of Eng-
land;" three hours after which in Hungar's Road, Eastern shore,
the ship "Hopeful Adventure," Capt. Richard Husband, came
up and made seizure under pretext that Chiles had no license.
The Court of Northampton ordered a release. Thereupon, Richard
Husband and his prize sailed away, to the great indignation of
the commissioners thereof. It being rumored that the County
would be called upon by the commissioners to pay a large sum of
money to Walter Chiles, some of the inhabitants met in Dr. Hacke's
"old field," where Stephen Horsey called the commissioners a
company of "asses and villyans."

At the Assembly which convened July 5,1652, Gov. Bennet sent a
note to the House of Burgesses in which, after protesting that he
did not intend 'to intrench upon the right of Assemblies in the
free choice of a Speaker, nor to undervalue Lefft. Col. Chiles,"
advised(2) "that it was not so proper nor so convenient at this
time to make choice of him, for that there is something to be
agitated in this Assembly concerning a shipp lately arrived, in
which Lefft. Coll. Chiles hath some interest.

The Burgesses, however, did not seem inclined to take the advice
of their Governor, for the record states that "Left. Col. Walter
Chiles" was chosen, next day, by a plurality of votes, Speaker of
the Assembly, It is, however, to the honor of Col. Chiles, that he
at once declined the election, having represented(3) "to the house
his extraordinarie occasions in regarding to the dispatch of some
shipping now in the country in which he is

much interested." At the same session, Chiles was allowed to have
the ship "Leopoldus" for L400 sterling, said ship having been
confiscated for violation of the navigation laws.

On July 26, 1653, the Court of Northampton, according to an order
of the late Assembly, (determined upon despite a petition of part
of the inhabitants of the county, representing that the rumors of
their disloyalty to parliament was false, and their complaint was
against the taxes laid, on account of Capt. Chiles' ship) declared
"all the subscribers of that writing called a protest incapable
of holding office."

In 1671, under date of April 4th, Walter Chiles appeared in
behalf of his sons, John and Henry, relative to 1,500 acres of
land in Westmoreland county. According to the notes of Dr. E.
D. Neill, Walter Chiles was the son-in-law of Col. John Page(1)
and probably, had married his daughter Mary.(2) The Ludwell
MSS. (in Va. Historical Society) show that he was dead before
May 15, 1672, when his widow, Susannah, received a grant for
200 acres in James City County, in Passbehayes for 99 years on
account of buildings and improvements on the Main there, according
to an order of the General Court of June 7, 1638, for strengthening
the Main on this side Powhatan Swamp by leasing it out in parcels.
In Sept., 1693, the same year, John Chiles was appointed messenger
to the Council (Council Journal MS).

On June the 25th, 1683, judgment was entered in York Court in
favor of "Mr. Henry Tyler as marrying Elizabeth Chiles against
Maj. Otho Thorpe for the payment of twenty-one pounds sterling,
with costs of suit als execucon."

Col. Page in his will dated March 5, 1686-87, and recorded
February 24, 1691-92, speaks(3) of his grandson. John

Chiles, and his "grandsonne John Tyler." sonne of my grand-daughter,
Elizabeth Tyler" At a county court held for York County, June 24,
1707, John Tyler, who describes himself "as son of Mr. Henry Tyler
of York County and grandson of Col. John Page, formerly of ye sd
county dec'd," came into court and acknowledged a receipt(1) from
John Page, of ye county of Gloucester, of L50 sterling "for a
legacie left me (the said Henry Tyler) by the last will and testament
of ye said Coll. John Page, dec'd." Under the will of Col. Page,
John Tyler(2) received land in the forks of the swamp Powhatan, in
James City county where, until a few years ago, there stood a modest
brick building, which was built by him.

Col. John Page left a ring of twenty shillings to his "grandson,
John Chiles." In St. Peters Parish Register, New Kent county, are
the entries of the baptism between 1699 and 1706 of Henry, Walter
and James, children of Henry Chiles, Gent. Hanover county ws taken
from New Kent in ------; and 6 Sept. 1735, Henry Chiles sold lands
on Southern Branch, Hanover county. Louisa county was taken from
Hanover and in 1772 James Chiles and Elizabeth, his wife, were
living there. By his will proved 10 Oct., 1774, John Chiles left
his estate to his neices Olive Edwards, daughter of Joseph Martin
and Susannah his wife and to Mary, daughter of John Wright and
Jane, his wife.

====
Descendants of Walter Chiles
First Generation
1. Walter CHILES Lt. Col. was born about 1600 in England 1 and died in 1653 in Virginia 2 about age 53.

General Notes: "Lt. Col. Walter Chiles emigrated from England to Virginia before 1638 bringing with him, evidently in his own ship, his wife Elizabeth, sons William and Walter and four other persons. For these emigrants he was awarded 400 acres in Charles City (now Prince George) County near the falls of Appomattox River. On May 2, 1638 he received a further grant of 250 acres on the Appomattox River; in March 1638, 613 acres in Charles City. He also bought 813 acres from William Thomas in the same county. (Sevier and Madden, Sevier Family History , p.512)

Patent Book I, Part 2, 1 Mar 1639: "To all to whome these presents shall come I Sr John Harvey... Governr.... graunt unto Walter Chiles fower hundred acres of land Scituate lying and bein in the Countie of Charles Cittie upon Apamattuck river Westerly upon the river Easterly into the woods Northerly upon the land of Edward Tunstall and Southerly towards the falls. The Said fower hundred acres of Land being due unto him the Said Walter Chiles as followeth.. fiftie acres for his owne psonall adventure fiftie acres for his wife Elizabeth fiftie acres for his son William and fiftie acres for his son Walter and twoe hundred acres by and for the transportacon of fower psons into this Colony whose names are in the records menconed Under this pattent To have and to hold & dated the first of March 1638."

"The first mention of the original Chiles emigrant to Virginia is found in the records of the High Court of Admiralty Examinations in England. In the record of Examination No. 301 dated 24 July 1637 the Witness was Walter Chiles of Bristol, a clothworker aged 29 who signed his own name to the document. He states that he was a passenger on the ship Blessing, of Falmouth and was employed to assist Henry Tutton, the ship's purser. The ship was at James Town, Virginia for fourteen weeks. The date of Walter Chiles' first arrival in Virginia was probably 1636."

"The position he held as an employee of the owner of the ship, Blessing was one of great importance. His duties included not only the selling of the goods brought from England, but also the purchase of products from the new world. It enabled him to see first hand the future of this fertile country. The prospects for an adventure, the wealth that was untapped and probably foremost, the sight of vast acres of unclaimed land must have impressed him at this time. Why, in the Examinations, he was listed as cloth-worker, we do not know... Some six months after the 24 Jul 1637 Examinations, Walter Chiles had outfitted his own ship and by 1 Mar 1638 was again in Virginia," at which time he was awarded his acres in Charles City County. (Eakin, Walter Chiles of Jamestown, p.1)

"In June 1641 Walter Chiles, Walker Austin, Rice Hall and Joseph Johnson petitioned the Virginia Assembly for permission to explore territory west southerly from Appomattake River, according to p.34 of L.P. Summers, History of Southwest Virginia.

"Chiles represented Charles City County in the House of Burgesses in 1642 and 1643; represented James City 1645, 1646, 1649. He was a member of the Council, or upper house, in 1651; was elected speaker in 1652, but declined because of his pending application for reimbursement for the seizure of his ship, 'Fame of Virginia'
by Cromwell forces.

" The Fame of Virginia was returning from Rotterdam in 1652, whence she had sailed from Virginia on Jan. 24, 1651. Upon reaching Chesapeake Bay, she put into port in Accomack County. After being there a short time, the ship sailed for James City, but was pursued and captured by Capt. Robert Henfield, who held a commission from the Protectors of the Liberties of England, Cromwell's government. Three hours after which, in Hungar's Roads, Eastern Shore, the ship named 'Hopeful Adventure' under Capt. Richard Husbands came up and made seizure, under the pretext that Chiles had no license from Parliament and was bound with cargo for Brazil.

"Chiles immediately applied to the Northampton authorities for assistance, maintaining that the seizure was 'contrarie to ye peace of this country and also cont'y to ye agreem't made by ye Com'rs that were appointed by ye Keepers of Ye Libertyes of England and ye damage of ye pet'r towe thousand pounds sterling.' according to Northumberland County records. The ship was ordered released, but Capt. Richard Husbands sailed away with the vessel 'to ye great indignation of ye commissioners thereof.' (See William and Mary Quarterly, Series One, Vol. I, p. 75.) It was rumored that the country would be called upon by the commissioners to pay large sums of money to Walter Chiles. Some of the inhabitants met in Hacke's Old Field where Stephen Horsey called the commissioners a company of 'Asses and Villyans.'

"The House of Burgesses granted Chiles the ship, 'Leopoldas' , as a forfeit, with all its equipment, guns, etc., for the sum of 400 pounds. The Lepoldas had previously been confiscated for violation of the Navigation Laws." (Sevier and Madden, Sevier Family History , p. 512)

According to research done by Charles Leonard DeMott, at this time Chiles was a candidate for speaker of this house. Governor Bennett made it known that he felt it inappropriate that Chiles be appointed when his own case was to be tried before the Assembly. The Assembly prompted elected Chiles. He declined the position.
Governor William Berkeley, in 1646, sold the home known as the 'Kemp House' to Walter Chiles for the sum of 26,000 pounds of tobacco. It was the first brick house in America and was located at Jamestown." (Eakin, Walter Chiles of Jamestown, p.3)

Noted events in his life were:

?UW Immigration: 1638. 3

Walter married Elizabeth (CHILES). Another name for Elizabeth is Elizabeth CHILES.

General Notes:
"The wife of Walter Chiles, Sr. was Elizabeth.... In a letter written 7 Feb 1978 Mrs. Virginia W. Austin (State Chairman, Genealogical Records Committee, Virginia D.A.R.) states, 'All the records I have indicate he married Elizabeth Maury but there is in The Colonial Dames of the 17th Century file folder for Chiles a notation where someone had found the marriage of a Walter Chiles to an Elizabeth Sanders June 1630 in Bristol Cathedral.' The William and Mary Quarterly mentions there was a second marriage to an Alice Luckin. I find no reference to an Alice Luckin Chiles in the U.S. records." (Eakin, Walter Chiles of Jamestown, p.4)

Children from this marriage were:

HARMISON Morgan county, West Virginia, figures as one of the most attractive, progressive and prosperous divisions of the state, justly claiming a high order of citizenship and a spirit of enterprise which is certain to conserve consecutive deve lopment and marked advancement in the material upbuilding of this section. The county has been and is signally favored in the class of men who have contributed to its development along commercial and agricultural lines, and in the latter connect ion the family mentioned herein demands recognition as its various representatives for the past few generations have been actively engaged in farming operations.

(I) Elijah Harmison is the earliest member of this family of whom anything definite is known. The place of his nativity and the date of his birth are not known, but during the greater part of his active career he was engaged in agricultural oper ations in the vicinity of Sleepy Creek, Morgan county, Virginia, where he passed the closing years of his life. He was a Whig in his political faith but was not incumbent of any public offices. He married and had five children: 1. Isaac, marrie d Eliza Barnhart and they became the parents of ten children, as follows: Sarah, died unmarried; Rebecca, became the wife of Charles A.

He was reared to maturity in the place of his nativity and was e ducated in the neighboring district schools. He was engaged in farming during his lifetime, and while not a politician in the truest sense of the word was deeply interested in public affairs and gave his support to the Republican party. He marri ed Phoebe Mahala Rankin, a native of Berkeley Springs, Morgan county, now West Virginia, daughter of Simeon and Matilda (Fardon) Rankin. both of whom are deceased.
