Part 7

Part 7 of 7

(3) 4. JAMES HAWORTH, JR., son of James(2) and grandson of George, the Emigrant, was the father of 13 children. In Vol. 4, #4 of The Haworth Record the last number published by Mr. Davis, he began a complete genealogy of this family. That issue gave the records of the two elder children and a part of the record of the third child. That shall be presented here as it was given in The Record with additional data found in letters scattered through previous copies of The Record. These letters give some information about four other members of James Haworth's family. Of six of the children there is no mention except their names and the dates of their births and death. Information for the genealogy Mr. Davis would have published, had he lived, was supplied by Mrs. Sarah A. (Haworth) Carr, Rushville, Indiana; Perry Haworth, Indianola, Iowa; Miss Grace Hanson, Alexandria, Indiana; Miss Ciceily Haworth. Eldorado, Kansas; Dr. O.J. Pennington, Lindan, Iowa and other members of the family.

(3) 4. JAMES HAWORTH, JR., 4th child of James and Sarah (Wood) Haworth, was born in Fredrick Co., Virginia, Jan. 2, 1752 and died in Indiana, probably in Randolph County, Feb, 3, 1827. What motivated the move is not known. The Record states that Jemima, the eldest child, was married in South Carolina. No mention is made of any of the younger members of the family being in South Carolina and Jemima and her family evidently were in North Carolina in later years for her husband, John Wright, it is said, "John Wright died either in North Carolina or Tennessee." Richard Haworth(3), 2nd child of James and Sarah (Wood) Haworth, was a member of the New Garden Friends Meeting in Guilford Co., North Carolina at some time prior to 1781. George(3) and James(3) are first mentioned as joining Daniel Boone in his settlement on the headwaters of the Yadkin River and accompanying Boone on his second unsuccessful trip into Kentucky. The family of George Haworth was one of the six who started on that expedition, and James Haworth was one of the forty single men in the party. The opposition of the Indians to the entry of white settlers into Kentucky's wilderness forced the party to return to North Carolina. One version of the story is that the Haworth brothers remained in North Carolina until about 1785 when they made a second attempt to enter Kentucky, but still finding the Indians hostile went to Greene Co., Tennessee instead. Rees Haworth(4), son of James(3), said that before the battle of Guilford Court House men were drafted for the Colonial Army, among them George Haworth. Not for lack of courage, but because of religious scruples many of the young men of the Quaker faith fled west to the Indian country of what is now Tennessee and formed a settlement there on the Holston River in

Jefferson Co., near the present town of New Market. According to Rees Haworth George and James Haworth migrated with this group in 1781.

The New Garden Friends meeting disowned the members of their society who did participate in the Battle of Guilford Court House. Isaac Wright, a lad of 16 or 18 years old was one who did not run away. His sympathy was with the Colonial cause so he remained and hauled supplies for the Army.

William Rees and his family remained in their home near Guilford court House, within sound of the battle. His daughter, Mary. a girl of fourteen, sat on the doorstep of her father's house and saw the ambulance wagons go by with the dead and injured, a sight she was never able to forget. Whether her brothers, Moses, William, James and John participated in the battle is not told.

Mary's father, William Rees, was an emigrant from Wales, where his father lived to be 105 year old. Mary's mother was Charity Dillon, daughter of William Dillon, who was a son of Luke and Susannah (Garret) Dillon, who emigrated from Ireland to Pennsylvania along with other Quakers. William Dillon moved from Pennsylvania to Frederick Co., Virginia, where he settled near Winchester. It is probable that he died in Virginia, but his brother Daniel Dillon moved to North Carolina, settling in the neighborhood of Cane Creek Monthly Meeting in Alamance County, later moving to New Garden in Guilford County.

Sometime before 1784 the Rees family and Isaac Wright had joined the Friends in Greene County, Tennessee. Richard and Ann (Dillon) Haworth refused their consent when Isaac Wright asked to marry their daughter, Susannah. Neither did William and Charity (Dillon) Rees want thirty-two year old James Haworth(3) as a husband for their seventeen year old daughter, Mary. Then as now children had ideas of their own, and the four young people took matters into their own hands and eloped. We are told that they "were married the same day, Feb. 19, 1784, in Greene Co., Tennessee." Mary (Rees) Haworth, who was born in Virginia Apr. 12, 1767, died in Hamilton Co., Indiana Dec. 23, 1850.

The first settlers in Tennessee had been forced to live, until crops could be planted and grown, upon the fish and game the country provided. There is evidence that the wilderness had not been pushed book too far from the new colony at the time James and Mary were married, for it is told that "one winter James Haworth and Isaac Wright killed twenty-one black bears for meat and sold the skins for $2.00 each".

By 1800 the young couples should have established homes. However, by that time the news had reached Tennessee of the rich Ohio Valley that warn to be opened for settlement. So James Haworth, his brother George and George's son Mahlon went to Ohio on a scouting trip. Finding the Indians on the warpath, they returned to Tennessee. When the Indian War was ended in 1803, James and George moved their families to the unopened forest of Ohio, to another primitive frontier. They were among the very first of the pioneers for a year later, when Mahlon Haworth and the John and James Wright families followed them, the village of Cincinnati boasted only eighteen cabins!

James and Mary (Rees) Haworth and their eight older children settled in Highland County near Leesburg. Here their five younger children were born. "James took land on Lees Creek, cleared a farm, built a mill and raised eight boys and five girls."

By the time Ohio had become fairly well settled a new frontier was opening up in Indiana. Once more the urge to be pioneers prevailed and for a second tine James and Mary left an established home for the discomforts and privations of a new frontier. Rees Haworth said that he went with his parents in 1824. Isaac Posegate, grandson of Thomas and Charity (Haworth) Posegate, left Ohio in company with James Haworth and Family in 1822. Perhaps Rees Haworth's memory of the move was more accurate than that of his nephew. Mr. Posegate said that they moved to "the Grand Prairie" which his uncle designates a Randolph Co., Indiana. James died here Feb. 5, 1827 at the age of 75. Mary outlived him twenty-three years. Her death occurred in Hamilton Co., Indiana, Dec. 28, 1850. Their 13 children were.

So ended the unfinished genealogy of the family of George Haworth(4) and of the family of James Haworth(3), for the above appeared on the last page of Vol. 4, #4 of The Haworth Record. Thus ended the worthwhile work of Charles B. Davis. To Mr. Julius Haworth's knowledge no other member of the Haworth Family attempted to carry on the work, nor does he know where the Davis records are at the present time.

JAMES(3) cont. -

Any Information about the 10 younger children of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth, in addition to the dates of their births and deaths given at the beginning of their genealogy, has been gleaned from letters and from the answers to inquiries scattered at random throughout the Haworth Record. Incomplete as this information is, much of it is of real interest.

(4) 4. SARAH HAWORTH, 4th child of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth, was born in Tennessee, Oct, 19, 1792,

and died Nov. 8, 1857. No other mention is made of her.

5. DAVID HAWORTH, 5th child of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth, was born in

Tennessee Dec. 23, 1794 and died Aug. 22, 1868. No record.

6. JONATHAN HAWORTH, 6th child of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth was born in Tennessee Mar. 14, 1797

and died Feb. 21, 1867. He had a son:

(5) GEORGE HAWORTH, who married his cousin, ANN HAWORTH(5), George(4),

James(3), James(2), George(1), See page 62, Vol. 2.

7. CHARITY HAWORTH, 7th child of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth was born in Tennessee. Listed with the other children of her family, Mr. Davis gave the date of her birth as June 7, 1799 and that of her death as Dec. 27, 1845. In two letters written to Mr. Davis by her son, Isaac Posegate of Hartum, Colorado and dated Aug. 4, 1906 and June 9, 1907, many interesting things are told about his own parents and about his Grandfather and Grandmother Haworth. He gave the dates of Charity's birth and death as July 12, 1799 and Dec. 20, 1845. His letters make no particular mention of anyone in his family but his parents and himself so it is likely that he sent to Mr. Davis a genealogy covering what he spoke of as "the Posgate family".

According to him, in Hamilton Co., Ohio, when Charity was 17 years old (probably in l8l6), she married Thomas Posgate, who was born in Virginia. Thomas had a brother Eli Posgate, who married Rebecca Haworth(5), Samuel(4), George(3), James(2)j and also a brother Frank Posgate.

Thomas and Charity( Haworth)Posgate had 16 children, 8 of whom died when young.

(5) ISAAC POSGATE was born in 1820 in Highland Co., Ohio, and in l822 so he says, the Posgate family

in company with the family of James Haworth(3) left Ohio and "moved to the Grand Prairie".

Rees Haworth, son of James(3) and brother of Charity (Haworth) Posgate, gave the date of the

move as 1824 and Randolph Co., Indiana as their destination.

Again the James Haworths were helping to open up another new settlement, James doing so at the

age of 72. "Thomas Posegate entered Government land half prairie, half timber. He raised corn,

cattle and hogs. We made our own sugar and kept bees. Deer and wild turkeys were plentiful, and

fruit could be had for the picking. "

(4) 8. MARGARET HAWORTH, 8th child of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth, was born in Tennessee Oct. 27, 1801

and died Jan. 9, 1868. Margaret is mentioned once in the Record as having a daughter:

(5) 1. SUSANNAH HAWORTH, born Sept. 2, 1826, who married MILTON HAWORTH(6),

Betty (Wright) Haworth(5), Susannah (Haworth) Wright(4), Richard(3), James(2), George(1). Milton's

mother Betty Wright married her cousin "Little Jonathan Haworth"(5), James(4), Richard(3), James(2),

George(1). Margaret Haworth evidently married one of the Haworth Clan but his name was not given.

9. REES HAWORTH, 9th child of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth was born in Highland Co., Ohio, Mar. 18, 1804

and died in Rush Co., Kansas, Jan. 29, 1895.

Mrs. Sarah (Haworth) Carr of Rushville, Indiana, daughter of Rees Haworth, contributed the following facts that

wore entrusted to her by her father when he was 90 years old, one year before his death.

In 1824 Rees Haworth and other members of James Haworth’s family left Ohio and went across the Ohio line into Randolph Co., Indiana. In 1830 Rees went to Vermillion Co., Illinois where he married Parmelia S. Stanfield(5) Jan. 1, 1832. Parmelia was a granddaughter of Peter and Elisabeth (Haworth ) Dillon(3). In 1838 with four children Rees and Parmelia moved to Hamilton Co., Indiana, which he described as being "almost a wilderness".

In I853 they moved to Howard Co., Indiana

In 1856 they moved to Harden Co., Iowa.

In 1885 they moved to Rush Co., Kansas where Parmelia (Stanfield) Haworth died in 1887, "after a happy union of 58 years."

In closing Rees Haworth said, "I have now passed my 90th birthday at this time - 4th month, 1894. I have 10 children, 50 grandchildren, and 38 great grandchildren, and am today enjoying reasonable good health. I am able to attend meetings 2 or 3 times each week and praise the Lord for his wonderful goodness and mercy to me."

(4) 10. ELI HAWORTH, 10th child of James and Mary (Rees) Haworth, was born in Highland Co., Ohio Aug. 27, 1808 and died Oct. 11, 1854. Writing from Richland, Iowa on March 26, 1906, Rees Haworth(5) son of Eli, said, "My father with his family left Vermillion Co., Illinois in the Fall of 1840 and emigrated to what was then known as the "Black Hawk Territory". We crossed the Mississippi River at Burlington, which was then a small village of log cabins. We moved into the township where we now reside. Our location was within three and a half miles of the Indian lines; being about 55 miles west of the Mississippi River. All the land west of us to the Pacific Coast belonged to the Indians. This was indeed a wild country; being close neighbors to the red men they were at our house daily. Everything was just as nature made it. The howl of the wolf, the wildcat, the lynx and panther could be heard in the distance. The black boar was sometimes seen in the jungles or his footprints in the mud of the streams. Wild deer wandered about in droves at their will and wild turkeys were almost as common as blackbirds are now. I have seen them sit on our fence not two rods from the door.

"I remember when about 15 years of age, going out with some men and seeing them kill a black bear. I being the youngest was sent to invite the neighbors to dine with us the next day, there were forty who ate bear meat at our house next day. "

(4) 12. LEVI HAWORTH, 12 child of James and Mary( Rees) Haworth, was born in Highland Co., Ohio Feb. 24, 1811, died Aug. 5, 1851 The only information found in The Haworth Record concerning Levi is that he married PHEBE HAWORTH, daughter of Solomon Haworth of North Carolina. The question of Solomon’s identity first came up in August of 1906, at which time Mr. Davis was under the impression that he might be the son of Micajah Haworth, Jr. (4), Micajah(3), Stephanus(2), George(1}

Later that surmise was disproved. A search of the records disclosed that there was another Solomon Haworth in North Carolina for whom no family is listed. He was the son of George(4), George(3), Stephanus(2), George (1). Whether he was the father of Phebe is still an unanswered question.

SOLOMON HAWORTH, the father of Phebe married Parthenia -- and had 9 children:

1. PHEBE HAWORTH married LEVI HAWORTH(4), James(3), James(2)

Ohio Aug. 8, 1814 and died in 1902. No record.

End of Family Record of James Haworth(3), James(2), George(1).

(3) 5. ELIZABETH HAWORTH, 5th child of James and Sarah( Wood) Haworth, for whom there are no dates of birth and death given, married Peter Dillon in New Garden Meeting in Guilford Co., North Carolina Aug. 11, 1773. (Note: Elizabeth b 24 Mar. 1754 Hopewell, Frederick, Va. (Archives S. L. Hinshaw - Hopewell Friends History) d 2 Oct. 1852 (Archives S.L.- Hinshaw).)

At the time of his death Mr. Davis had ready for publication a complete history of the Dillon family, which would have been valuable in completing the record of Elizabeth Haworth. As it is the information about her is very limited. Whether she and Peter remained in Tennessee, as did her brother, Richard is left to conjecture. Three of their granddaughters lived in Illinois and in 1908, a Dillon reunion was held in Georgetown, Illinois, at which the following officers were elected:

Pres. George Dillon, Champaign, Illinois

V. Pres. Levi Dillon, Ridge Farm, Illinois

Secy. W. S. Dillon, Danville, Illinois

Tres. Mrs. Alma (Dillon) Johnson, Danville, Illinois

Peter Dillon was the 4th generation of Dillons in America,

He was born in Guilford Co., North Carolina Feb. 6, 1752.

(1) LUKE DILLON md. Susannah Garret and came with her and 2 sons from Ireland to Pennsylvania about 1724,

(2) DANIEL DILLON

(2) WILLIAM DILLON born in Ireland about 1715, came to America when 9 years old. Moved from Pennsylvania

to Fredrick Co., Virginia, and from there to Guilford Co., North Carolina. Of his 2 sons and 5 daughters

only 1 son and 2 daughters are named in The Haworth Record.

(3) DANIEL DILLON had a son

(4) PETER DILLON md. Elizabeth Haworth(3), James(2)

(3) HANNAH DILLON md. Edward Wright. See Page 7, vol. 1

(3) CHARITY DILLON md. Wm. Rees

(4) MARY REES md. James Haworth(3), James(2)

A paper read at a Reunion of The Haworth Association of America gave the names of 10 children of Peter

and Elizabeth (Haworth) Dillon:

(4) 1. SARAH DILLON married John Stanfield and had a daughter

(5) 1. PARMELIA S. STANFIELD md REES HAWORTH(4). Jon.(3), James(2),

George(1). See Page 63, vol. 2.

2. GARRETT DILLON had 3 daughters mentioned in The Record:

(5) 1. MAHALA DILLON md. Samuel Haworth(5), George(4), George(3),

James(2), George(1). See Page 20, vol. 2.

2. MARGARET DILLON md. Thomas Haworth(5), John(4), Richard(5),

James(2), George(1) Page 87, Vol. 1.

3. LYDIA DILLON md. Eli Haworth(5), James(4), George(3), James(2), George(1).

See Page 26, Vol. 2.

In the Family Record of James(4). it says that Eli married "Lydia Dillon of New Market,

Tennessee. As the families of all the men marrying daughters of Garrett Dillon lived in

Illinois it is just probable that the Eli who married Lydia from New Market was Eli, the son

of James(3), James(2).

(3) 6. SARAH HAWORTH was the 6th child of James and Sarah (Wood) Haworth. Aside from the name of her husband and the names of their children, The Haworth Record tells little about the youngest child of James Haworth(3). From records of other members of her family it is learned to whom three of her children were married. Concerning the others no information is available.

Sarah married James Wright, a brother of John Wright, who married her sister, Jemima Haworth. There were Wrights who emigrated to Georgia with James Edward Oglethorpe, founder of the Georgia Colony in 1732, but Mr. Davis was not certain whether James and John Wright were of this group or not. There was a James Wright who came from New Garden Meeting in Pennsylvania to Cane Creek Meeting in Alancence Co., North Carolina in 1732. Also there was Edward Wright who married Hanna Dillon, daughter of William Dillon in Virginia.

SARAH(3) cont -

When and where James and Sarah Wright were married is not told, and nothing is said about when they went to Tennessee, but they left there and went to Ohio in 1804 with Mahlon Haworth’ s family and the family of Jemima (Haworth) Wright . They had 10 children:
