  1. 4.  Immanuel Northup was born 17 Jun 1699, North Kingstown, RI (son of Henry Northup and Mary Kingsley); died 28 May 1790; was buried , Elm Grove Cemetery, North Kingstown, RI.

    Notes:

    The will of Immanuel, "far advanced in years," mentions sons George and Carr, deceased, and son John, (possibly) deceased; a daughter Elizabeth Gardner, and another daughter who married a Mr. Tillinghast. The following grandchildren are mentioned: Henry s/o George dec.; Christopher s/o Carr dec.; John Holmes & Jeremiah G., sons of John; George, Wanton, & Sarah Gardner; Henry & Abigail Ann (?) Tillinghast; and Nicholas Carr Northup, Clarke Northup, & George Northup, possibly sons of Henry.

    Immanuel married Ann Carr 11 Mar 1745/46, Jamestown, RI. Ann (daughter of Nicholas Carr and Frances Holmes) was born Abt 1720. [Group Sheet]


  2. 5.  Ann Carr was born Abt 1720 (daughter of Nicholas Carr and Frances Holmes).

    Notes:

    I have roughly estimated the birth year of Ann. The marriage record identifies her as daughter of Nicholas & Frances Carr.

    Notes:

    Immanuel & Ann were married by Daniel Weeden, Warden.

    Children:
    1. 2. Carr Northup was born 1 Apr 1747, North Kingstown, RI; died 22 Sep 1774; was buried , Elm Grove Cemetery, North Kingstown, RI.
    2. Anne Northup was born 21 Aug 1749; died 14 Jan 1777.


Generation: 4

  1. 8.  Henry Northup was born 1663 (son of Stephen Northup); died Abt Oct 1740, North Kingstown, RI.

    Notes:

    The will of Henry Northup, yeoman of North Kingstown, mentions one son, named Immanuel; and mentions the following daughters: a daughter (likely Patience), wife of John Congdon; Susannah, wife of John Pinder; Mary, wife of Jeffrey Champlin; and other daughters under 18 and single, whose names have been burned off the will.

    His wife Mary is not mentioned in the will, which suggests she may have predeceased him. The marriage record of son Immanuel identifies his parents as Henry & Mary.

    It is possible that his first wife Mary died, and he married another woman named Mary. Could he have married Mary Eldred, as one genealogy suggests? Some family researchers may have confused two or more Henry Northups of this time period. For the time being, I am assuming there was one Mary for this particular husband.

    Henry & Mary Northup signed a deed dated 13 March 1711/12, along with Thomas & Hannah Place. Another record states that Henry Northup & Thomas Place bought land in a partnership about March 1716/17.

    Henry married Mary Kingsley Abt 1688. Mary was born Abt 1665; died Between 13 Mar 1711/12 and 1740. [Group Sheet]


  2. 9.  Mary Kingsley was born Abt 1665; died Between 13 Mar 1711/12 and 1740.

    Notes:

    Mary's maiden name was given in RI Genealogical Register, Vol. 4, No. 2, p. 149, "A Line of Descent from Benjamin Congdon." However, I am not sure it is correct, as there was another couple named Henry & Mary (Kingsley) Northup in South Kingstown in the mid-1800s. Was someone confused?

    In another genealogy, her name is given as Mary Cary.

    Children:
    1. Benjamin Northup was born Abt 1690.
    2. Mary Northup was born Abt 1692.
    3. Susannah Northup was born Abt 1695.
    4. 4. Immanuel Northup was born 17 Jun 1699, North Kingstown, RI; died 28 May 1790; was buried , Elm Grove Cemetery, North Kingstown, RI.
    5. Patience Northup was born 1705; died 1800.

  3. 10.  Nicholas Carr was born 19 Sep 1679, RI (son of Nicholas Carr and Rebecca Nicholson); died 20 Jul 1760, Newport, RI.

    Notes:

    The 1760 will of Nicholas Carr mentions his wife Mary; daughters Frances Spencer, Mary Underwood, and Ann Northup; and several grandchildren.

    Nicholas married Frances Holmes 16 May 1706, Jamestown, RI. Frances (daughter of John Holmes and Mary Sayles) was born Abt 1685; died Abt 1725. [Group Sheet]


  4. 11.  Frances Holmes was born Abt 1685 (daughter of John Holmes and Mary Sayles); died Abt 1725.
