Family: Susannah Dillon (b. 24 November 1755, d. 8 June 1804)

  • Note
    According to records of the Bush River Monthly Meeting in Newberry County, South Carolina, a George and James Haworth were disowned.

    George was drafted into the Continental Army at the outbreak of the Revolution. Like all Quakers, fighting was against their religion. George fled to western North Carolina to what is now Greene County, Tennessee.

    George Haworth, another prominent pioneer of Clinton County, was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in 1748, the son of James Haworth, was a native of Pennsylvania, and the grandson of George Haworth, who came from Lancashire, England, with William Penn in 1699. George Haworth, the subject of this mention, moved with his parents to near Winchester, Virginia, where they lived on a mountain top range called Apple Pie ridge. Here he grew to manhood and married Susannah Dillon. They moved to North Carolina, settling on the Yadkin river near the home of Daniel Boone. Hearing Boone's fine description of Kentucky, Mr. and Mrs. Haworth joined his colony, and on September 25, 1771, left their home and started from that state. Upon crossing the Alleghenies [near Cumberland Mountain], the party was attacked by Indians and several of them slain [including Boone's eldest son]. This so disheartened the remainder of the party that some of them sent back about forty miles and settled on Clinch river, but Mr. Haworth and his brother returned to North Carolina, where they remained for twelve years. They then made another attempt to settle in Kentucky, but, finding the Indians still troublesome, they went south into Tennessee and built a new house in what is now Greene county in that state.

    George selected the place for his new home and returned home to North Carolina. Taking his two little sons, Mahlon and John with him, he returned to Tennessee, built a cabin and made other preparations for the reception of the other members of his family. When their work was done, George returned to North Carolina for his wife and other children, leaving the two little boys, aged ten and twelve years, alone in the new home, with provisions enough, as he supposed, to last them during his absence, which he expected would be two or three weeks duration. But high waters and other impediments to travel on packhorses detained them for six weeks. During the time, their provisions gave out, and the little boys were obliged to subsist on parched corn, roots and berries, such as they could gather in the woods. added to this trouble, was the fear of an attack by the Indians, and when at last their parents arrived, the boys ran to meet them with outstretched arms, the mother sprang from her horse, clasped them in her arms and they all wept together for joy.

    The family lived here until 1803, he being engaged in as a merchant and cattle dealer, when they again left their home for a new one in the unopened forest. This time they moved to Ohio and settled on Todd's fork, on the farm known to the early residents of the county as the Stacey Bivan farm, not far from Centre Meeting House, where Mr. Haworth had purchased seventeen hundred and fifty acres of land in William Duval's Survey, No. 523. Mr. Haworth is said to have been the second settler in Union township and here he built a gristmill. Eight of his sons also cleared and opened up farms in this county. George Haworth continued to reside in this county until 1825, when several of his sons having moved to Illinois, he also sold out and moved to that state, having settled at Quaker Point, near Georgetown, in Vermillion county. Mr. Haworth was a member of the Society of Friends and, in the latter years of his life, a minister in this society. About 1807 or 1808, he went on horseback to Baltimore, as a representative from Miami quarterly meeting, to attend the yearly meeting."

    John Wright was affiliated with John and Rachel were Quakers.
  • Note
    Research Notes: Much information can be gleaned about this family from a book by Algie I. Newlin entitled Charity Cook, A Liberated Woman, (Friends United Press, 1981). It is a biography of their daughter, Charity Cook, written and researched by a history professor.

    Around 1725, he and his family moved to the northern part of Maryland, Prince Georges County, possibly living at Goose Creek MM, Cecil County, Maryland first. Rachel's family lived in Prince George's County and they probably met there. John's only wife was Rachel Wells. Some sources list a second wife named Susannah but this has been disproven. The first half of John and Rachel's children were born in Prince George's County, Maryland according to Newlin's book: Charity Cook, A Liberated Woman. John's family moved from 1733-35 to Frederick County, Virginia and became members of the Friends Hopewell Monthly Meeting. They lived near Monacy Creek a few miles south of Frederick, Maryland now known as Frederick County, Virginia.

    The marriage records of John and Rachel Wells Wright cannot be located, and it is assumed that they were burned with the Hopewell meeting records. Marriage is therefore approximated as 1737, a year before their first child's birth. Both John and Rachel were appointed overseers of their respective male and female Monthly Meetings in Monocacy in 1745. They were charter members of the Fairfax MM.

    Rachel Wells Wright is a very interesting person of her own right. She was a Quaker minister. This involved travel and stamina on her part. She was a very sturdy woman attested by the trials she endured plus the fact that she had three of her children in just a two year period.

    What is even more astounding is that during this same two year period, John and Rachel Wright with seven young children, William through John Jr. moved to the Cane Creek frontier, soon to become Orange County, North Carolina, which was over a distance of 300 miles. They received their letter to go to what was then Carvers Creek MM on 29-5-1749. They were charter members of of Cane Creek Monthly Meeting in Alamance County, North Carolina when it was established 10m-1751. Six more children were born to them in the Cane Creek area. All thirteen are listed in the Cane Creek records.

    John and Rachel moved near Camden, Kershaw County, South Carolina in 1761/1762 to the Wateree Meeting in Camden, South Carolina, later to become the Bush River Monthly Meeting area that they helped establish. He sought a land patent for land on Beaverdam on 17 Sep 1769 with an addition joining it in 1786. Parts of both of this land he granted to his son in law Big John. Later, Big John and Rachel then sold it to their son, Wright Coate.

    By 1765, there was a decision among some Friends in the North Carolina Piedmont to move to South Carolina. Perhaps this was associated with difficulties growing out of the Regulator Movement. John and Rachel (Wells) Wright and family, including the family of their daughter, Charity, who had married Isaac Cook, were among the first to move to what became the large Bush River Friends settlement in Newberrty County, South Carolina.

    John was a member of the first and second Provincial Congress of South Carolina.

    At an ederly age, he lived with his daughter, Susannah. He used to walk to and from the Quaker meetings. The family reunion in 1908 recalled that his daughter prevailed on him to take her horse on one occasion. When the meeting was over, he walked home. When he got there she asked him where the horse was and he replied "Dad, me Sue, I forgot her."

    According to this same family renunion provided by Julia Henry, it states that he and his wife had seven sons and ten daughters, four of whom apparently aren't in the Quaker records.
    He wrote his will on 9/17/1789. He named his wife, his deceased son, Joseph and Joseph's son, John; John and his son; Jesse; Nathan and his son William; his son-in-law, Isaac Hollingsworth which he left his shoe-maker tools, cow and calf; Joab Brooks, son of James Brooks; Joseph Cook,his grandson and son of Isaac Cook; William Hollingsworth, grandson and son of Isaac Hollingsworth; son-in-law Isaac Cook and Isaac's daughter Rachel. The witnesses were Isaac Hollingsworth, John Coate and Charity Cook. His Executor was his son Joseph Wright. His will was written in Newberry County, South Carolina.

    His death was about 1790. He was living with his son-in-law, Isaac Hollingsworth's family, in the 1790 census. Before he died, he supposedly gathered all of his descendants which numbered 144 persons at the time.

    Will, 17 Sep 1789, ,Newberry Co., SC, USA.
    Probate, 8 Jun 1790, ,Newberry Co., SC, USA.
    John married Rachel Wells,daughter of Joseph Wells and Margaret Swanson,about 1738 in Hopewell Mm,Frederick County,Virginia.
    Rachel was born on 3 May 1720 in All Hallows Parish,Anne Arundel County,Maryland and died on 23 Dec 1771 in Bush River MM,Newberry Co.,South Carolina at age 51.
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    John Wright went to Cane Creek, N.C. by 1749, and on to Berkley Co., S.C. by 1768. He's said to be a Revolutionary War soldier, but never left the Friends (Quakers). His will was made September 17, 1789, Newberry Co., S.C. His wife Rachel was born 3 mo (May) 27, 1720, Prince George Co., Maryland the daughter of Joseph and Margaret Wells. She died Dec 23, 1771, Bush River MM, S.C.

    The following anecdote about John Wright is in the "Annals of Newberry", page 31: "John Wright, the father of Charity Cook and Susannah Hollingsworth, was a very aged man at the time of which I am about to speak, but principally accustomed to walk to and from meeting. He was living with his daughter, Susannah Hollingsworth, something prevented her from going to meeting; she induced the old man to ride her mare. This he did; but after meeting, he walked out of the meeting house, and home as usual. As he entered the door, his daughter said to him, "Father, where is the mare?" "Dads me, Sue, I forgot her." was the old mans reply."

    This ancestor before his death, assembled his children and children at his bedside. When all were assembled, they numbered one hundred and forty-four.

    In 1759 the Quaker Colony where the Wrights lived was atacked and James and his wife Mary were killed and scalped. Soon after his parents were killed, John Wright, his wife Rachel, and their children, in frustration and grief, moved to a Quaker Colony near present day Greensboro, North Carolina. It was at this point the Quaker established the first college in North Carolina. The College still exists and is called Guilford. It is just one of many institutuions of higher learning founded by the Quakers in early America.

    But poor John and his family, running from the violence of one Indian War ran head long into another. With the aid of the French, the Catawaba and Cherokee, of the Carolinas, had joined forces and were wiping out white settlements in the Yadkin River Valley, very near the Quaker Colony at Greensboro where the Wrights had settled.

    Still seeking a place of Peace our ancestor, John, and his family, moved through the hostile Indian territory of the Yadkin River country to the Bush River Monthly Meeting Colony in South Carolina.

    John and his family at last found peace at Bush River near present day Newberry, South Carolina until the advent of the Revolutionary War. When the Revolution came, John apparently was fed up with being a pacifist. Even though he was then in his fifties, he immediately joined the celebrated American fighting group called Col. Thompson's Rangers as Pvt. John Wright.

    Our ancestor, John Wright, was at the famous Battle of The Cowpens where an American army made up of rough frontiermen defeated an Army of elite British regulars under the command of Banastre Tarleton to win the first vistory against Lord Cornwallis' army.

    John died in South Carolina September 17, 1789 and is buried in Newberry County.

Parents

Family: Sarah Wood (b. 11 November 1720, d. 20 June 1769)

  • Note
    James married Sarah Wood soon after his arrival in Virginia. Nothing is known of her family line and she may not have been a Quaker, but the Wood family is believed to have come from Yorkshire where there was early Quaker influence.

    In the 1750s, Indian raids instigated by the French, terrorized the frontier settlements and many abandoned their farms. During such an absence from home in 1756 James died, from causes not known. Sarah was left with six young children ranging in age from 1 to 12.

    Hopewell Meeting on September 5, 1757 petitioned the Meeting for Sufferings of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting for assistance naming eleven families in need. Among them was Sarah Haworth, a widow and young children. She had lost 12 cows and was allowed three pounds.

    Some time after 1757 Sarah married Peter Rubie and had one son and three daughters, names unknown.

    grew up in Pennsylvania and about 1740 moved to Frederick County in Northern Virginia with his brothers. This area, near Winchester, was on Smith Creek near Apple Pie Ridge.

  • Note
    A testimony from Warrington Monthly meeting in Pennsylvania concerning Alexander Underwood: "He was born in Maryland in the year 1688, and being convinced of the truth some time after he arrived to man's estate, was chosen an elder of the meeting where he then resided; afterwards removing to this then remote part of the country in the fifty-seventh year of his age he appeared in the ministry, and traveled twice on that service to North Carolina, of which visits we received comfortable accounts from friends there; and when at home was enabled to minister suitably to the state of the church, to the comfort of the true mourners in Zion, and encouragement to the faithful travelers. Towards the latter part of his time, his bodily strength much failed, yet he visited some of the neighboring meetings, and families of friends, to the comfort of the faithful, his ministry continuing to be sound and lively. In his last sickness he seemed much resigned, and at one time said he had the company of his good master to comfort him in his affliction. At another time, he said that he could say with the psalmist, that the good hand that was with him in his young years, had not forsook him now in his old age."

    Death: 6 March 1764 | Frederick, Virginia, United States
    James Wright and Mary Davis were married in 1707 Some researchers believe that James Wright married Mary Bowater. This Find A Grave researcher (Bobs your Uncle, marge.ballinger@gmail.com) states, "James Wright did not marry Mary Bowater. Her father was John Bowater, which is often confused with an older John Bowater in London who died in 1704. Both men had daughters named Mary and the two men died only a year apart.

    The younger John Bowater was born about 1650 in Worcestershire, married Franes Corbott in 1683, and settled in America in 1684. He held Quaker Meetings at his home, had several children and died in 1705. In his will he names his daughter Mary Bowater. His wife, Frances (Corbott) Bowater later names Mary as Mary Ailes in her will. There are also marriage records that show Mary Bowater married Stephen Ailes. Furthermore Stephen Ailes lists two of her nephews as his executors of his will, proving Mary was his wife and now the wife of James Wright.

    Also James Wright was a witness at a wedding in November 1707 along with his wife, Mary Wright. Other witnesses included Bowaters, particularly Mary Bowater, with the maiden name of Bowater. So this single document proves that Mrs. Mary Wright and Miss Mary Bowater are two different people and James Wright was married to another Mary, not Mary Bowater.

    The whole theory of James Wright marrying Mary Bowater is based on a marriage record of a "Mary Wright" whose marriage was condemned in Dec 1708. First, only this "Mary Wright" is listed, not her husband's name and not her maiden name which could have very well been Wright. Secondly, her supposed marriage to a respected Quaker elder is condemned, why? And thirdly, the late 1708 marriage date is a after the birth of the 1st child in and it is after the document where James and Mary Wright were listed as witnesses to a marriage in 1707. So the theory is based on one record which conflicts with other known facts and does not even have the surname of Bowater listed, just "Mary Wright" which both Mary and the surname of Wright were very common.
    The theory also uses circumstantial evidence that because James Wright witnessed many Bowater marriages, then he must be related to them. This assumption is similar of being guilty by association. James Wright a respect Quaker elder and named as one of the founders of the colony of Hopewell Meeting, so naturally he would attend many weddings and other functions. But also more than once he was appointed as keeper of the marriage records. So it was his job to be there. He attended lots of marriages, not just the Bowaters. He recorded and kept the records, then he would journey to the main Quaker Meeting House in Philadelphia and give them a copy. His assigned job led to another theory that he was some kind of a traveling minister.

    He had a residence about 1725 in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. The location was the northern part of Maryland, possibly living at Goose Creek Monthly Meeting in Cecil County, Maryland. John would have been about nine at this time. Rachel Wells family lived in Prince George's County and they probably met there.
