26003	[2011205.ged] [Singletary Family .FTW] Revolutionary Soldier Joseph E. Singletary, Pension # S47849. In the fall of 1777, Joseph and his brother, Josiah, were recruited as substitutes into the Bladen County Militia commanded by Col. Thomas Brown (later General). Joseph was a substitute for William Harrison while Josiah substituted for their uncle, Benjamin FitzRandolph of which both had been drafted for an expedition against a force of Tories which had taken positions along the South Carolina state line in then Bladen CO., NC. After a months service they were disbanded and returned home. In 1778, Capt. Jared Irwin raised a troop of light horse (cavalry) in Bladen Co., NC in which Joseph and Josiah became volunteers. In the same year, Col. Thomas Robeson also raised a troop of light horse in the County. The two companies of cavalry sometimes took the field together with Col. Robeson in command but generally they acted as separate units alternating time in the field. Both of these companies were involved in numerous skirmishes. On June 6, 1781 both companies of cavalry under the command of Col. Robeson, became engaged with a large Tory force led by Col. Hector NcNeil at Stewart's Mill on Rockfish Creek. In the ensuing battle Joseph was "severly wounded by a broadsword in several places and disabled in one leg in consequence of having been trod upon by horse". It further states in his pension application "Said Singletary lay three or four months, severly wounded, at the house of the mother of this deponent". The deponent was either Susannah Harrison or Susannah McRee. Joseph can be identified in the 1800 and 1810 Census in Bladen Co., NC. He is found in Leon Co., Flordia in 1830. The 7th of May, 1836 he sold his land in Leon Co., FL. On May 21, 1836,13 days after Joseph sold his Florida property, his son, Josiah Singletary, bought land in Thomas Co., Georgia. There is no record of Joseph owning any land in Georgia. He lived with his daughter, Nancy, and son, Josiah, although Joseph is listed as head of household in the 1840 Census. In June of 1837, Joseph's agent in Tallahassee, FL. informed the Commissioner of Pensions in Washington,D.C. of the change of address to Thomas Co. GA. Joseph was a charter member and Deacon of the Popular Springs Primitive Baptist Church formed August 14, 1837 and whose Minister was his old friend the Elder William Hawthorn. Joseph and Elder Hawthorn were both past Ministers of the Big Swamp Primitive Baptist Church in Bladen Co., NC. The church minutes give the date of his death as April 14, 1844. In the July 1844 term of the Inferior Court of Thomas County, Letters of Administation were granted to Josiah Singletary, his son, to administer the estate of Joseph. After an inventory and appraisal, the following items were sold: 1. one mare and colt. 2. one horse cart. 3. 3 cows, 3 yearlings, 1 calf. 4. 1 handmill. 5. 3 ploughs, 1 pr. trace chains and harness. 6. 1 feather bed, 2 chairs. 7. 1 pot, 1 oven, 1 spider, 2 kettles. 8.

26010	[email from G. Curnoe, June 2012] Calvin Topping arrived in Canada in 1844 at the age of four so that could be the time Calvin and Rosanna Quick came to Westminster as well. Calvin Topping was born in Vermont. There are several families in BS who’s origins seem to be Vermont. Most of them seem to have arrived after the War of 1812. I have asked Lynn Topping, one of our members about the Quicks in relation to the Toppings, but she came up blank. When I was growing up in south London, we had neighbours by the name of Quick. The eldest one once delivered milk in Westminster. Roy Norton knew him. His grandson was a playmate of mine. He moved out west a long time ago, but I still think of asking him stuff if we ever meet up again in this small world. Calvin Quick was years older than his first wife Rosanna and his second wife Maria was young enough to be his daughter, Calvin and Maria had a son named Edwin, but I have not been able to trace Edwin or his mother,Maria who was born in England. Calvin is buried at Woodland in an unmarked grave. He died in 1881 at the age of 67. His son Edwin was about 8 at that time. Glen	QUICK, Calvin (I1362)

We believe Ellen died in 1941 but do not know where she is buried. George was in the asylum (I think) and died there (Adelaide Township) but his death record and death notice in the newspaper indicates his body was brought to Brick Street.

26014	[from George DeKay]: William Walters (1769-1850) was a lawyer belonging to the firm of Walters and Geach in Newport, County Monmouth, Wales. He was married to Mary Philips, daughter of Squire Philips, a man of considerable means. Walters became, in time, independently wealthy but lost heavily through bank failures. After this he decided to start a new life in America and left Wales in March 1816 leaving his wife and seven children behind. He arrived in the Talbot Settlement in Upper Canada and obtained the east half of Lot 37, Con. 2 in Westminster Township. By 1818 he was ready to send for his wife and children. They arrived in 1819. His wife, Mary, died the next year and was buried in Brick St. Cemetery. With her death William Sr. decided to leave the farm to his twin sons, William Jr. and Walter and about 1824 he moved to the Welsh settlement in Denfield in London Township. With his professional background his advice was trusted and much valued in this new settlement. He was a Deacon in the Denfield Baptist Church for many years.minster in 1820 [DWT] Walters 3	WALTERS*, William (I1227)

26016	[Guy St. Denis - Byron: Pioneer Days in Westminster Township, p119] [William] Montague was a whitesmith, or tinsmith, who made cutlery, gun barrels and other such fine forging work. In 1811 he took his family to the United States and settled near Roxbury, then six miles from Boston. Afterwards, he moved to Biddeford, Maine where he worked in a shipyard at the mouth of the Saco River. When war broke out in 1812 Montague removed with his familyt o Upper Canada by way of Albany, New York and enlisted in the 49th Regiment. As the regimental armourer it was Montague's responsibility to maintain the guns and other arms in good repair; this position, however, did not preseve him from actual military service. During the Battle of Lundy's Lane his company was ordered to reinforce the British who, like their foe, suffered manmy casualties during this engagement. After the war Montague and his familyh returned to the United States and lived near Albany until 1816. In that year the Montagues removed to the Long Point settlement in Upper Canada, and in 1817 they took up residence in London Township. William Montague remained there clearing and famring a considerable amount of land until he died on September 26, 1822. His wife survived him until 1858.	MONTAGUE, William (I1694)

26018	[HCM p.917] Jacob J. Manning is of Irish-German lineage, and is a descendant of a prominent old family, the founder in America being a native of Ireland, and a pioneer settler in Dutchess County, New York, in which county he located many years before the Revolutionary war. Jacobe Manning, the grandfather of our subject, was born in York State, and was a farmer by occupation, and during the American Revolution was a Loyalist, emigrating a few years after that struggle to Canada, where he and his tree sons each were given 200 acres of land for the assistance they rendered the British Government during that war. Jacob J. Manning was born near Rouse's Point, N.Y., in 1795, but was reared on his father's farm in Canada, marrying, after a suitable age, Elizabeth Palen, which union resulted in the birth of eight children - Henrietta,Lawrence, Lucetta, William, Rachel, Sally A., John G., and Almina. Mr. Manning was appointed Lieutenant in the Militia, and rose to the rank of Captain, and afterwards began filling the duties of Magistrate. He owned a farm, and, about 1834, emigrated to Middlesex County, and settled on the Sixth Concession of Westminster Township, where he cleared a farm of 200 acres. He was appointed Magistrate soon after coming to this county, which office he is still filling, and became Captain of the Militia, being afterwards appointed to the rank of Colonel, an office he filled until old age compelled him to resign. He has been a church member for more thatn sixty years, and throughout his long and useful walk through life has commanded the respect and esteem of all who knew him. During his early career he kept a store for fourteen years, where Belmont now stands. which enterprise was attended with good success, and although at the present time he has reached the advanced age of ninety-three years, he is still active, and retains his mental faculties to a remarkable degree.

There are four generations now living on the old homestead, the fifthe generation being Harry L. Collard, son of Mr. M. Collard of North Dorchester. This instance forcibly illustrates the remarkable longevity of the staunch old pioneer family.	MANNING, Jacob J. (I1845)

26027	[Hudson-Mohawk Genealogical and Family Memoirs] Seth, son of Thomas and Rachel (Wetherbee) Putnam, was born in Lunenburg, Massachusetts, September 16, 1756, a twin of Susannah. He died in Putnam, Ontario, Canada, September 3, 1827. His gravestone, erected in 1847, states he was born in Charlestown, New Hampshire, in 1758. He was a private in Captain Samuel Wetherbee's company, Colonel Isaac Wayne's regiment, which marched to reinforce the Northern Army in 1776. According to his gravestone he was a colonel in the Continental army. A family belief, as told in later years by his son Thomas, was that he was a member of the "Boston Tea Party." He was a man of education, with a good knowledge of civil and military engineering. In 1795 he emigrated to Canada to a wild and unbroken region. He entered into a contract with the Canadian government to construct a wagon road from the head of the lake where Hamilton now stands, to Chatham, eighteen miles east of Lake St. Claire, a distance of one hundred sixty miles, through a heavily wooded country. For this he was to receive sixteen hundred acres of land and a cash bonus. He built the road but never received his reward. He married, February 14, 1790, Sarah Harding (gravestone), of the Wyoming valley, Pennsylvania, one of the few who escaped from the massacre of Wyoming. She died about 1850. Son Thomas: In his youth,in his father's house, he witnessed the historic interview between General Proctor and Tecumseh, the night previous to the battle of the Thames, in which the great Indian chief was killed. General Proctor made the house of Seth Putnam his headquarters at that time.

26029	[London Township Families Past & Present p413] George Robson (1801-1885), the fourth child of John Robson and Nancy Ann Calvert, took over his parents' farm, Spring Grove Farm at S1/2 Lots 29 & 30, Con. 13, following his father's sudden death in 1838 when he fell off a horse. George established a reputation throughout Canada and the U.S. as a breeder of Shorhorn cattle and Lincoln sheep. He was reeve of the township, a justice of the peace and played an active role in the 1837 Rebellion, first as an ensign and later as captain of a reserve militia. The brick house he built on the farm in 1845 was destroyed by fire in 1944. George married Elizabeth Summers (1807-1880), daughter of Robert and Margaret (Bell) Summers, about 1826. Seven of their ten children remained here [London Twp]	ROBSON, George (I697)
