Whitney

Josiah

Aft 1697

Yes, date unknown

XI. Josiah Whitney, b. at Norwalk, Conn., date not known; married, 30 Oct. 1729, at Norwalk, Eunice Hanford, dau. of "Mr. Eleazer Hanford," and Hannah, his wife, and g. dau. of Rev. Thomas and Mary (Miles) Hanford, of Norwalk. They settled in Norwalk, where he died as early as 1750. He was of legal age to sell land as early as 25 Jan. 1721-22, and was named in the deed after his brothers--an indication that he was younger than they. No record of her birth or death has been found. She had L82 16s. 7d. from her father's estate, about 1737. In that year, 19 May, John Reed, "for and in behalf of his wife Hannah, and as guardian to his son-in-law, Eleazor Hanford, and his daughter-in-law, Mary Hanford, minors," quit claim to Josiah Whitney, of Norwalk, and his wife Eunice, their shares in 58 acres of land "belonging to the estate of Mr. Eleazer Hanford, late of sd Norwalk, deceased, situate nar Pimpewauge, above the Split Rock farm that was Mr. Joseph St. John's, late of Norwalk, deceased." Probably John Reed married Hannahy, widow of Eleazer Hanford and mother of Josiah Whitney's wife. The final distribution of the dower of Eleazer Hanford's widow, 1 May 1759, shows that Eunice Whitney had already deceased.

188 VIII. Josiah Anson Whitney, b. in Ridgefield, Conn., 18 Jan. 1762;1 a millwright; served in the Revolutionary War, and though he was only thirteen years old when it began, tradition says that he served six years, and "held a Captain's commission under Gen. George Washington." He married, about 1786 or the beginning of 1787, at Danbury, Conn., Rebecca Olmstead. Perhaps Danbury was their dwelling place for the first ten years; but in the early part of 1797, they were living in Paris, N.Y., and, about 1800, they moved to Westmoreland, N.Y., where she died, and was buried. He married (2d), 20 Sept. 1802, Sally Leet, who was born in Guilford, Conn., where also the marriage took place.

Their marriage is recorded also at Norwalk. His father gave him thirteen acres of land at Horse Pound Hill, and twenty-six acres at Drum Hill, with three acres of swamp east of Horse Pound Hill, seven acres of land to take up in the unsequestered land, and "one pair of stears past three years old," 18 Oct. 1709; and, at the same date, sold him three acres of land, with a house-frame thereon, at Belden's Hill. They dwelt at Norwalk for several years; then settled in that part of Stratfield Society, which lay in the town of Fairfield.. He proposed to build a grist-mill on Sasco River, "where the sawmill stood," and asked the town to give him a small piece of land on which to set a house. His request was granted by town-meeting, 27 Ap. 1713, and a committee appointed to lay out the land and stipulate the conditions of the grant. Another town-meeting, 6 Aug 1716, granted him liberty to flow so much of the town-commons as should be needed for the mill. His mill appears to have been built before 24 Aug. 1716, when the committee laid out, and 12 Sept. 1716, formally conveyed to him, land on the east side of Sasco River, near to his mill, on his engagement "to keep a good and sufficient grist mill on said river, att or near the place where his now grismill now standeth, when it can be done with labour; and to grind all sorts of grain for two quarts a bushell into good & sufficient meal, if the grain be good; and also to keep a sufficient house over said mill to secure all such grain as shall be brought to said mill, with a good lock and key continually to said house; and to grind all such grists of all sorts of grain as shall be brought by any Inhabitant of said town to said mill seasonably and before hee or they shal grind for a stranger." He was living at Stratfield as early as 18 Oct. 1714, when he sold land in Norwalk, to "William Jarvis of Huntington, on ye Island of Nassau," and again, 21 Jan. 1725-6, when he sold to his brother, Joseph Whitney, a "Fifty pounds Right of commonage" in the undivided lands of Norwalk. He was a juror at Fairfield, 24 Dec. 1734. The date of his death has not been found. She died at Fairfield, 20 Oct. 1774.

28 Nov 1943

14 Feb 2021

William Thomas, "Bill", Whittington II, 77, of Hemphill, Texas, passed away peacefully at his home on February 14, 2021.

Bill was born on November 28, 1943 in Henderson, Texas to William Thomas Whittington and Carrie Keidel Whittington. He lived in San Augustine until he was two, and then, being the son of a military father, lived in numerous states and even abroad.

Bill graduated from San Augustine High School in 1962, and attended Stephen F. Austin State University. He was a member of the First United Methodist Church of Hemphill.

Bill spent the majority of his career in the forestry industry. He moved to Sabine County from Louisiana in 1967 when he went to work for Temple Lumber Company. Bill remained at Temple for 38 years until his retirement in 2005. In those years, He was always active in Pineland Day activities, helping raise money for the community. He also volunteered with the Pineland Little League, Pineland Service Club, Operation Clean Sweep, and other community service efforts. In addition, he served on the Pineland City Council, and was a founding member of the Hemphill Education Foundation.

Bill was a staunch proponent of education and an avid reader. For many years, he and Jean Ann purchased books and donated them to the elementary and middle school students at Hemphill ISD. He wanted each child to have a book of their own in hopes they would understand the doors that reading and education could open.

After retirement, Bill enjoyed traveling with his beloved Jean Ann and could tell you the best restaurant in every town they went to. His all time favorite was Jenny's Fried Chicken in Kirbyville!

Bill was a colorful character who lived life to the fullest. He was proud to be from Texas and loved his country. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

Rosa Lee

9 May 1927

10 Sep 2015

Rosa Lee Ambrose born May 9, 1927 to Columbus Lee Whitton and Nancy Mahalya (Willard) Whitton. Ms. Rosa has passed in peace and comfort in her home town of San Augustine. In the care of Twin Lakes Nursing Center, assisted by Affinity Hospice, with a dedicated staff and a force of volunteers Ms. Rosa called Twin Lakes home for 8 years.

A student at University Of Texas in the early 40's she moved to San Francisco with her sister Allene and brother-in-law Randolph Hankla. Working at Treasure Island as a teletype operator Rosa met her second husband, Kenneth S. Kutch. In her lifetime Rosa loved to cook, was a seamstress, rounded up Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and Girl Scouts, as well as a few DAR Members. In addition to DAR, she involved herself in The Historical Society, The San Augustine Study Club, The Timber Growers Association, and was active as a Voting Judge into 2008. Living in Texas, Illinois, Wisconsin, California, Michigan, and passing through another dozen plus states an interest in her country was always present. A secret pleasure was her participation in the Veteran's Day Celebration with the DAR.

Rosa enjoyed being a mother and raised her three and two dozen more. Scouting was one of those joys she could share and really shine. Camping, fishing , boating she was always game and usually drove. Rosa met Ralph and married adding another four children to her influence.

Upon retiring Ralph and Rosa chose to move home to San Augustine and enjoy those things that meant the most. Joining into the community Rosa was a member of the First United Methodist Church singing in the choir and engaging in fellowship with friends , family, and congregation. We will certainly miss that sassy savoir faire.

Those who are left to cherish her memory include, Her sons, Keith Dwayne Kutch and his wife, Julia Fluker of Eugene, Oregon; Kevin Whitton Kutch and his wife, Mary Ellen Buxton/Kutch of New York, New York; Daughter, Kay Star Kutch of San Augustine; Step-children, Ralph Ambrose and his wife, Jacque of City by the City; Mailyn and her husband, Lenonard Silversmith; Pamela Ambrose and Jill and her husband, Larry, all of Chicago, along with numerous grandchildren, and nieces and nephews, Evva Dene Dymke; Johnida Evans; William "Bub" Lee Johnson and Randall Hankla.

Wigglesworth

Anne

14 Sep 1783

22 Jul 1841

Henson and Parmelee, in their book "The Cartwrights of San Augustine," wrote that Anne, along with her teenage daughters, Amanda, America and Elvira, journeyed "from Lincoln County, Tennessee via Nashville, Natchez, and Natchitoches in only fifteen days, a remarkably short time, having connected with steamboats at all three places by mere minutes. In Natchitoches a drove of horses from Arkansas had just arrived and they bought three for only $180. The colonel had been Sandford, his youngest son, to Tennessee to escort his mothers and sisters, but he had unknowingly passed them on the river. From this brief account, it is clear that Anne Wigglesworth Homas was an unusually self-reliant woman, unafraid to travel alone over unfamiliar territory. She and her three teenage daughters were relatively safe on board the steamboats, but the journey from Natchitoches seems unusual. The ladies most have been accompanied by loyal servants who could hitch the horses to their vehicles and act as an escort past Fort Jesup and through the Sabine Bottom. (pp. 84-85). Aldophus Sterne in Nacogdoches noted that a number of pope suffered from fever and died during the month [of July 1841, when both John Cartwright and Anne Wigglesworth Holman died]. While no local people identified the sickness that summer, it may have been yellow fever. Two men who left Nacogdoches in September died of the dread disease as soon as they reached Vicksburg. (p. 117).

16 Mar 1899

Keith Eldon James writes that he was said to be the son of John Wigley (b. 1783 Virginia d. 1852 Leake County, Mississippi), and Jane Crowder, and grandson Jobe Wigley, born 1755 Virginia and died after 1820 in Amite County, Mississippi. He was shown on the 1800 Oglethorpe County, Georgia census. Jobe was in the 5th VA Regiment of Foot, from 1 Mar 1776 until September 1782.

As compiled by Vivian Cogbill of Jasper, Texas:

Francis and Sarah Wigley lived in Amite County, Mississippi and all of but one of their children were born there. They were members of the East Fork Baptist Church of Christfrom 1834 through 1852. They must have left Amite County before the birth of their youngest son. They lived in Jasper County, Texas until 1887, when they moved to Tyler County, Texas were the lived in the Ebenezar Community with their son Paschal. They are buried in the Wigley cemeter off Farm Road 256.

Per the obituary in the JASPER NEWS BOY for Francis Wigley:

29 Mar 1899---Died near Emilee, Tyler County, Texas on March 16, 1899, Mr. Francis Wigley, aged 88 years, 9 months and 4 days. Deceased was born in Oglethorpe County, Georgia, June 10, 1810, moved with his parents to Amite County, Mississippi in 1820 and was married to Ms. Sarah Felder on May 24, 1832 and in the fall of 1852 came to Texas and settled in the Big Creek area. He was the father of twelve children, eight of whom are still living. He united with the Missionary Baptist Church while quite young and lived an exemplary Christian life, 30 years of which time her served the church at Zion Hill as a deacon. He cast his first presidential vote for General Jackson, and voted for every democratic candidate down to Cleveland in 1884, as which time he cast his last vote. Incrediable as it may seem, the subject of this sketch lived under the administration of 20 presidents, and was nearly grown when the first railroad was built in the United States. he was a remarkable temperate man in everything but the use of tabacco, and when the end finally came he passed away without an hour's sickness, complaining of nother, but just feeling tired and weak. "Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep."
