Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Jane Chlo Morgan Descendancy chart to this point (1.Living1) was born on 10 May 1807 in Pulaski, Kentucky, USA; died on 7 Apr 1837 in Shelby, Indiana, USA.

    Notes:


    Jane Chlo was described as "a cultured woman who wrote poetry".

    Jane Chlo belonged to the Baptist church as a young woman, but after a Reformation of the church, she went with the branch which became the Church of Christ (Disciples), then known as Campbellites. She was well informed in the Scriptures, zealous and a good talker, pleasant but firm.

    TQ's letter gives several details about Jane Chlo's death. She wasn't as healthy as some girls, but had generally good health for a number of years. Before Nancy Jane was born, Jane Chlo's health started going worse, starting with scrofula beinnng shown by swelling of the glands on the neck. These were removed, but she did not recover her usual health, and before Nancy Jane was born she was scarcely able to be about. After she was born she appeared quite smart. But a fatal accident took away all hope for recovery. She was given an opium overdose by mistaking a strong medicine for a much weaker one. Between the effects of this and the scrofula, she suffered greatly for nearly a year, and her only constant desire was for her husband by her side.

    «u»Notes from a defunct web site«/u» - unverified, might be some good clues here for follow-up

    Adonijah {The name comes from the Bible (1st Kings 1 and 2) -- Adonijah was a son of King David and elder brother of Solomon who tried to make himself king while King David was on his death bed. He was forgiven by King Solomon but later killed at King Solomon's command because of suspicion.} came with his parents and brother Thomas to what was then western North Carolina, but later became Greene County, Tennessee. Adonijah is in Greene Co., Tennessee (then North Carolina) on its 1783 census (when Greene Co. was created). He bought 200 acres of land there in 1793, and sold the same amount in 1798.
    Adonijah served in the Revolutionary War while in western North Carolina. No pension or details of his service record have been found, but the places he served would likely be similar to that of his brother. On June 12, 1783, Adonijah was paid 5 pounds, 1 shilling and 6 pence for his service by the auditors responsible for paying claims in western North Carolina. Adonijah's pay was a relatively small amount compared to others. They were paid in specie which could be exchanged for western frontier North Carolina land.

    Adonijah left Greene Co. for Pulaski Co., Kentucky about the beginning of 1800. (He is on a jury in Greene Co. as late as Nov 1799.) Maybe he left because he kept getting stuck with jury duty in Tennessee. He's on Greene Co. juries in Feb., MayAug., and Nov. of 1797, and Jan., Apr., July, and Oct. of 1799. He moved to Pulaski Co., Kentucky along with his father. Adonijah first appears on the Pulaski Co. Tax lists in 1800. He is last listed on them in 1817.

    While in Pulaski Co., Adonijah was a court commissioner in 1805, at least.

    Appleton Morgan said Adonijah was a member of the State Legislature of Kentucky, but proof has not been found.

    According to the 1880 biography of his son William F., Adonijah and some of his children moved to Indiana in 1818.

    One biography of Adonijah's son Lewis says that Lewis came to Shelby Co. in 1816.

    Some of Adonijah's other children moved to Ross Co., Ohio. I don't know if Adonijah ever settled there or not. It appears that he never did, though, since he's in the Fayette Co., Indiana census by 1820. The NGSQ article notes that while some of his sons stayed in Ross Co., he continued on to Indiana with his wife and son Amaziah.

    Adonijah was appointed county assessor for Fayette Co., Indiana in February, 1819 when Fayette Co. was organized. He is also named as a ``lister'' (responsible for property valuation) in 1819.

    The first record of land purchased by this Adonijah in Indiana that we have located so far was in 1823. On August 28, 1823, Adonijah Morgan, Sr. bought for $186, 57 acres in Fayette Co., part of E. side of NW Quarter of Section 10, Twp 13, Range 12E.

    This land is two miles south of Connersville and one mile west of the White Water River, on Fall Creek in Columbia Twp. The above parcel passed around Adonijah's children. On March 31, 1827, Adonijah Morgan sold the above property to William F. Morgan for $60?.

    Adonijah (Jr.) and Betsy Morgan sold the above property for $400 on Nov. 26, 1831. It finally passed out of the family since they sold it to a James Lawson.

    Shirley (Anderson) Reed researched all these land records in 1996.

    Jane married Tunstal Quarles Matthews on 25 Dec 1828 in Fayette, Indiana, USA. Tunstal (son of James Matthews and Margaret Reed) was born on 23 Sep 1807 in Pulaski, Kentucky, USA; died on 7 Nov 1878 in Sterling, Johnson, Nebraska, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Louisa's middle name o f Matilda is reported from a descendant of her son Perry. Matilda is listed as Louisa's middle name on the marriage certificate of her son Perry Hall Black. It is also recorded in a notebook started by Louisa's granddaughter, Perry's daughter, Blanche Olive (Black) Grewell.



    However, it might have been a mistake on the marriage certificate: a case of the clerk confusing the bride's name with Perry's mother's first name.

    Sometimes shown as "Ellen".

    (from Geocities.com researcher)



    Ellen and John moved to Nebraska in 1880. Ellen had suffered from consumption (tuberculosis) for one year and spent her last summer in the mountains of Colorado to try to improve her health. She apparently knew her time was short as her obituary says she was trying to get her estate settled as soon as possible and sell off her personal property since all their children were under 16. She was a member of the Christian church, having officially joined at age 16.

    News Item



    A little more than a year ago the remains of John D. Gilchrist were brought back from Nebraska for interment. It is a sad duty this week to record the death of his wife at her home near Ashland, Nebraska, December 20, 1895. The father and mother are now both gone, leaving a family of five children the oldest of whom is sixteen years. They were both formerly from this community and the news of Mrs. Gilchrist's death will bring sadness to many hearts. An obituary taken from one

    of the Saunders county Nebraska papers appears in this issue.

    Obituary



    Ellen J. Black was born August 23, 1855, died at her home in Green precinct, Saunders county, Nebraska aged 40 years months and 3 days. May 1, 1877 she was united in marriage to John D. Gilchrist, at North English, Iowa. In 1880 she

    moved with her husband to Nebraska. For nearly a year Mrs Gilchrist suffered with consumption. Last summer was spent in the mountains of Colorado in the hope of to find health but to no avail. She returned and sank rapidly. She hoped to live long enough to settle up her affairs so as to leave her estate in the best possible shape for her children but the grim messenger did not wait for this hope to be realized. She had advertised a sale of her personal property to take place on the 23rd past, but did not live to carry out this plan. Her husband preceded her to the world of spirits about one year and nine months. She leaves five children, all of whom are minors, the oldest being about 16 years of age and the youngest only Six. TwO other children have died. Mrs. Gilchrist was a devout follower of Christ, whom she chose as her Saviour and Guide, when she was sixteen years of age. She found

    her denominational home in the Christian church. The funeral was held at New Hope Church Sunday forenoon. It was the largest funeral ever held at that church. Rev. C. A. Huyck, of Ashland conducted the services. the burial was in Cedar Hill Cemetery. Saunders County, Nebraska paper.

    Per Perry's descendant Sam Gilmore:



    Early on, Perry was a farmer. He left Nebraska for northeastern Colorado in the mid 1880s, settling in Holyoke, Phillips County. In 1896, he moved to Colorado Springs. Here he became the next door neighbor of the Grewell family in the 600 block of north Spruce. His children all attended Bristol school (same school I [Same Gilmore] attended in the 1950s). Perry worked as a teamster and laborer for the Grewells who had a coal yard. His wife Alice moved to Long Beach, California following Perry's death in 1924.

    Notes:

    Her marriage license says she was born in Marion County, Indiana

    Ida was the eighth child of Benjamin and Louisa Black. She was born in Fairfield, IN on May 1, 1864. The family moved to North English, IA by covered wagon when she was a year old. Her mother died when she was two years old. In 1879 she came to Nebraska (she was 15) with Mr. and Mrs. E.J. Rosecrans and lived on the farm west of Ashland with them. She joined the New Hope Christian Church when she was 16 years old. She married Edward Frasier in 1886. They lived on several different farms before ending up back on the Rosecrans farm where she lived with Edward until his death in 1938. She then moved to Havelock, NE and lived with her son Clarence until her death in 1949. Further information regarding the Rosecrans' is not known, other than they bought their land from the railroad.



    From MaryAnn Hrubesky:



    The Black Siblings - In 1880



    The death of their mother, Louisa Matthews Black, in 1866 was a life changing event for these children. A number of them were still quite young. Ida, born in 1864, was only two years old and was raised by her older sisters, a step-mother, and a very kind young couple, the Rosencrans, living nearby.



    Their father had remarried in 1870. His second wife was Sarah Dennis who had also been trying to raise six young children since the death of her husband in 1863 while he had been a soldier in the Civil War. It would seem to be an excellent idea for both Sarah and Benjamin. In fact, it wasn't. They would produce two children together but at some point before 1880, they would separate and divorce.



    Benjami n had six living children by Louisa left in the home area at this point. (Samuel is absent and cannot be found and Joseph has already left for the West.) Together, the children would plan to move west themselves and resettle, startinnng new lives. Only Edwin Howard would remain in Iowa, having married a neighboring girl in 1878. The five other children would move to Saunders County, Nebraska. They are present there at the 1880 census. (William would remain in Iowa, living with his newly married brother, for a short time but would soon also be in Saunders County.)

    Ida, the youngest and 17 years of age, would be with the family of Edwin Rosencrans to whom she had been close in Iowa. In the 1880 census in Saunders County, NE, the Rosencrans would list her as "adopted." Her regard for the Rosencrans woulululd remain very high through the remainder of their lives. It is on the Rosencrans' farm that she would become acquainted and later married to their "hired man," Edward Frasier. When Edwin Rosencrans retired from farming, the Frasiers would buy his farm and live and work the property for the remainder of their own lives.

    Benjamin's children with Sarah Dennis were John and Berton Earnest. Berton Earnest remains in this area with his mother. He grew to adulthood, married and lived the remainder of his life in this area. John soon disappears from the records.



    As the marriage between their father, Benjamin Black, and Sarah Dennis had failed, it would seem likely that he would also have accompanied his children to Nebraska. But he did not. Whether he ever visited them is unknown. In the 1880 census he is boarding with a neighboring farmer in Iowa. Soon he would decide to return to the area in which he was raised, Boone and Kenton Counties in northern Kentucky. He may have had relatives still present in the area and/or perhaps he was just "going home." In this location in 1885 he would meet Cynthia Jones who would become his third wife. He lived until 1894. It is not known whether he and his children had any further contact. One would certainly hope so.
