On the 1900 census, Christina reports that she has born 15 children and only 5 are living. I believe the five living include James, George, Eliza and Hilas. Who is the fifth?

BARR, Christina (I8823)

On the 1900 census, close to the Conoleys are David C, Henry J, Morgan, and Wayman W Wills, brothers.

On the 1900 census, Dock reported that Minnie and Everett were born in Texas but most other records say they were born in Georgia. Everett's year of birth is debatable. The 1900 census says he is 8, born in 1890, which can't be correct and other sources give 1890 or 1891.

On the 1910 Census, Jessie is 2, 1908
On the 1920, he is 9, 1911
On the 1930, he is 18, 1912
On the 1940, he is 21, 1919
It looks like in 1930, it was actually Frank, and in 1940, it was actually James.

On the 1940 Census, Oma says she has only borne 2 children but on the 1910, she says 4. I believe she misunderstood the question in 1940 and only 2 are still living. I can account for the boys and Margaret but not Bonnie so she has died by 1940.

"Note: There was a Thomas Boatwright in Henderson County in 1850. If this Thomas is the same Thomas as the son of Amy, then the Boatwrights who lived in Henderson and Decatur Counties probably are descendants of Richard Rushing. There are White and Hill descendants of a W. H. Boatwright in the Concord Community of Decatur County."

Lily McIlhaney Bowen is a Patriot of both the Sons and Daughters of the American Revolution."The Scotch- Irish in America" First Congress 1889 Held at Columbia, TN, May 8 - 11, 1889 Robert Clarke & Co. Publishers
>From an address by Rev. D. C. Kelley, D.D. "Scotch-Irish of Tennessee"
From Kegley's "Virginia Frontier", p. 366-- "From different accounts of the family we learn that Moses Bowen and Rebecca Reese, the parents of John Bowen, came from Wales, and that John married Lily McIlhaney and lived for a while in Maryland before coming to Virginia. The earliest record of John Bowen in Augusta Co. is a Bond to Col. Patton dated 15th April 1748. This was for land in the upper James River surveyed in 1747--the family first settled in a tract known as the "Buckeye Bottom"---below present "Clifton Forge." As the Farther Southwest was opened for settlement in 1779, the Bowens generally migrated to the Holston and Clinch river valleys. Lily Bowen purchased from Patton's Executors 800 acres lying along the Great Road on the middle Fork of Holston, and Rees Bowen, after living on Roanoke a while settled at the Maiden Spring on the Clinch. It is said the first missionaries to the Holston settlement held services in Mrs. Lily Bowen's ball room."
Harman in his "Annals of Tazewell County, Virginia" p. 341, says: "The Bowens of Tazewell County trace their ancestry to Moses and Rebecca (Reese) Bowen, hiw wife, who immigrated to this country with a large company from Wales about 1698, and settled in Massachusetts, from whence they later removed to Montgomery County, PA, where they spent the remainder of their days. A branch of this family came south at an early day, settling first in Deleware, then in Western Maryland and Northern Virginia."

Lilly lists 8 of her children in her will. John, Nancy, and Moses preceded her in death. I'm not entirely sure that Rebecca, Jane, and Mary were her children. There was a Rebecca Roberts who was a mulatto slave, possibly Moses' daughter.

"Among the early Quaker settlers in Pennsylvania was the child of Moses Bowen and Rebecca Reese--John Bowen. He was born in 1705. John became a wealthy planter of Lancaster Co., Pa., and as was the custom of the times at harvest, gathered the lads and lassies of the surrounding countryside to his harvesting. One of these, Lily McIlhaney, by grace and beauty, so attracted the old bachelor's heart that he bowed at the shrine of matrimony." (Margaret Campbell Pilcher: HISTORICAL SKETCHES)
"John Bowen, a wealthy planter of Lancaster, Pa., as was the custom of the times, at harvest gathered the lads and lassies of the surrounding country to his harvesting. One of these, Lilly McIlhaney, by her grace and beauty, so attracted the old bachelor's heart that he bowed at the shrine of Matrimony. From this marriage came Capt. William Bowen, the Indian fighter, and the more celebrated Reese Bowen, who was killed at the Battle of King's Mountain. Captain William was one of the early settlers of Sumner County; the father of John H. Bowen, lawyer, and idol of his county of Sumner, and of whom the venerable Judge Thomas Barry says he was the best and most loved man he ever knew. Such was his reputation for probity, that the juries gave him credence when he differed with the court on a point of law; he was elected to Congress before he was of age to take his seat. His sister married David Campbell, a son of Col. David Campbell, and brother of General John Campbell, of the War of 1812. This David Campbell and Catherine Bowen were the father and mother of Governor William B. Campbell, of our good State of Tennessee."
John Bowen and Lily were leaders in the development of southwest Virginia and the frontier where there was continuous conflict between the settlers, the French and the Indians. Then came the Revolutionary War when their sons and sons-in-law, with one exception, were leaders in their services with the Continental line and the Virginia Militia. Rebecca Bowen Whitley's son, Moses, disagreed with his mother's family. He had the courage to fight for his convictions and was an officer in the British Army.

State of Illinois, Greene County
Declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress of the 7th of June 1832.
On this 2nd day of December, 1833, personally appeared in open court, (being a court of record) in and for the County of Greene, Joshua Armstrong, a resident of the County of Greene and State of Illinois, now in the 78th year of his age, who being first duly sworn according to law, doth on his oath make the following declaration in order to obtain benefit of the provision made by the act of Congress (passed) june 7th 1832, that he was drafted into service of the United States as a private in the Pennsylvania Militia, in the year 1777 to serve a tour of 60 days under Captain Leard, attached to Colonel Chambers' regiment.

3rd-He served a tour of duty of two months at Wheeling Fort, and was engaged during the time in scouting-his impression is that during this service he was under subordiante Officers, who were changed during the time and their names not now recollected.
4th-In the year 1781, about the 1st day of August, he entered into the service of the United States at Pittsburgh, under General George Rogers Clark, Colonel Crockett, Majors Crittendon and Wells.

5th-He served a tour of duty of two months at Wheeling under Colonel Marshall of the Pennsylvania, who gave him a written discharge a few days before the expiration of his time for carrying an express to Deckers Fort Mingo at the bottom of the Ohio, which service was performed at great hazard, but the discharge has been lost.

4-How were you called into service, were you drafted or did you volunteer or were you a substitute, and if a substitute, for whom?
I have stated in my declaration as near as my memory will serve me, the manner in which I was called into service-the service under General Clark was volunteered for a promise of pay as an Artificer, but I never received any.

Prior to coming to Illinois, he had removed to Kentucky, and in the year above mentioned, he settled in what is now Madison Co, Illinois. Joshua remained where he first settled until 1824 when he removed his family to Jersey Co, near Fielding, where the old pioneer and soldier remained until his death.
In 1816, in Madison co, Joshua was permitted to buid a toll bridge across Silver Creek on the road leading from the 'Settlement' to the United States Salines, and to charge the following rates: Teams 25 cents, man and horse 12 1/2 cents, and men alone 6 1/4 cents.
